Chapter 34: First Place
When Xin Nanyi came to the advertising agency studio, Q&P had already started to apply makeup. They first took some advertising samples and still photos today and in a few days, they officially shot the location scene.
This is their first endorsement, endorsing a lactobacillus drink that is sweet and sour. Several girls like it very much so the advertisers sent a number of boxes.
Since the theme of the commercial is to highlight youthful vitality brought by the lactobacillus drink, unlike the usual rich and cool makeup; gorgeous and exquisite clothes, this time Q&P only put on light makeup, wearing a pure white T-shirt on top and an ordinary light blue jeans on the bottom.
Q&P were not very old in the first place and they still have some baby fats; wearing simple clothes which is completely innocent enough for high school girls.
Qi Chaohan with sandy blonde hair, and Ji Chuqi with brown hair, were also dyed black with a one-time hair dye. After the shooting today, they washed off the outer layer of hair color and restored their inner hair color.
The oldest, Qiao Cheng, tied with a double high ponytail, wore a white shirt with an exposed navel which is pure and sexy.
Qi Chaohan also wore a double ponytail but her ponytail is relatively low and her soft face was adorable and cute.
Ji Chuqi tied two low smooth Dutch-style double braids, braided from the hair on the forehead all the way to the end of the hair. The braids are very long whether they are placed in front or in the back.
Ning Ning tied her big wavy curls into a high ponytail which was fluffy and lazy, making her mixed-race beauty even smaller.
Yi Ke is tied with double ball heads which is simple and refreshing.
Although it’s their first time to shoot an advertisement, their camera sense is not bad. Except for being rusty in the beginning, they all slowly became like fish in the water later on. Their faces and bodies are 360 degrees flawless, especially suitable for innocent and cute style so they look good like pictorials no matter how the photographer shoots them.

Compared to Q&P, Xin Nanyi is obviously out of shape today. Although he doesn’t have to be on camera, he still needs to lend a hand once in a while. However, he always looks absent-minded and it takes two or three calls to get his attention.
After calling him for the fifth time, Vivian finally couldn’t help going over and giving him a heavy pat on the shoulder.
“Eh……what’s the matter?” Xin Nanyi raised his head as if he had awakened from a dream and looked at Vivian, perplexed and at a loss.
“I asked you what’s wrong. How did you come back from lunch and lose your mind?”
“Nothing.” Xin Nanyi clenched his fist, some sharp nails pinched hard on his palm but his face hooked up a gentle smile. “What’s the matter? Something wrong?”
Vivian looked strangely and said, “Just now the advertising side said they hope to have Q&P play a song with today’s look once the commercial airs.”
“This wasn’t stated in the contract, temporarily added?”
“It was said that they saw that today’s look was very good and it was a spur of the moment.”
Vivian pointed to a woman in a white suit and skirt next to the photographer and said, “There’s the person in charge.”
As soon as Xin Nanyi nodded to her, he went over and extended his hand to the woman in the suit. “Hello!”
The woman in the suit turned around, shook his hand, and said, “Hello, I’m Yu Gui, the main person in charge of this advertisement. We spoke on the phone before Mr. Xin.”
Xin Nanyi smiled lightly, "Miss Yu."
“I had something to do just now and was held up for a while. I’m sorry to have arrived just now.”
“It’s okay. Miss Yu is busy with things. I can understand.”
“Thank you, Mr. Xin. Why don’t we discuss the business first!”
“Good.”
Yu Gui took Xin Nanyi to a small lounge nearby, discussed some issues about the contract, and finally signed a supplementary agreement, promising to change today’s look into one of the non-title songs——《love story》.
In the evening, as soon as Xin Nanyi returned to the villa, he checked his phone from time to time and Xia Zeqi did not call the whole night. Xin Nanyi has long been used to chatting with Xia Zeqi every night for a while, but now……
Xin Nanyi sighed again and Aikexi in his arms raised his little furry head, making a “wu” sound, and lowered his head again and again, as if he was learning from his master’s sigh.
He Li ordered an eternal flower1 box that he wanted to send to Xin Nanyi tomorrow and returned home. As soon as he opened the door, he found a pair of familiar shoes at the door.
*eternal flower: also called preserved fresh flowers, ecological flowers, and “flowers that never fade”. These are dried flowers that use fresh cut flowers of rose, carnation, hydrangea, etc., processed through a series of complex processes such as dehydration, decoloration, drying, and dyeing. [source]
He frowned and walked in to see Wu Xinhao sitting on his linen sofa.
He took off his jacket and threw it forcefully, just covering Wu Xinhao’s head.
Wu Xinhao slowly took the jacket off his head, fold it a little bit for him, and put it on the table in front of him.
"Why the fuck are you here again?"
Wu Xinhao smiled not even half-offended by the anger. He turned his head to look at him and said, “I haven’t seen you in a week but your temper is still so grumpy.”
He Li walked over and sat down paralyzed on another sofa, kicking Wu Xinhao’s leg heavily. He didn’t change his shoes when he walked in just now so a clear leather shoe print immediately appeared on Wu Xinhao’s black suit pants.
"Why don't you die abroad!"
Wu Xinhao heard him curse himself, he was still not annoyed. He patted his pants and said, “I heard that you recently found another stand-in for Ji Bu?”
“You’re fucking looking for someone to follow me again?” He Li exploded and pointed his finger at Wu Xinhao’s high forehead. There was a red mark on that forehead which was smashed out by the zipper of He Li’s jacket.
Wu Xinhao slowly opened his mouth like a smiling tiger revealing his fangs. He took out his phone from his pocket and played a video for He Li and said, “At this time, I bought this from an entertainment account at a high price. If I hadn’t acted in time, your future would have been ruined.”
He Li looked at the video on the phone with an ashen complexion. The video was only a short clip. It was taken when he and Xin Nanyi were tangled in the corner of the backstage of HXTV. The camera was shaking and it was not clear but it was enough to recognize the two main characters in the video.
“I know you can’t let him go but you should pay attention to your words and actions. You’re a star after all, don’t be impulsive when you talk and do things; that’s the backstage where people come and go.”
“You shut up, I don’t need you to tell me what to say and do!” He Li collapsed on the sofa.
The smile on Wu Xinhao’s face deepened and his tone was gloomy, “You said you don’t need me. If it wasn’t for me and your video was poked out, then you will only have to face a ban from the General Administration. The General Administration will not let an artist who has publicly come out of the closet go crazy in the entertainment industry and you will also pull your most cherish Ji Bu into the water. That short-lived musical genius will be covered with another layer of dust because of you.”
“Don’t mention him again!” He Li screamed like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. “Haven’t you spilled enough dirty water on him? He’s already dead and you still won’t let him go? What the hell did he do wrong!”
Wu Xinhao has become accustomed to his violent temper. He calmly took out a cigar, lit it, took a puff, and exhaled a smoke ring. “It’s not him who is at fault, it’s you. If you didn’t like him, I wouldn’t have done anything to him, even the one named Yu Cheng’an.”
He Li raised his head, looking at him with resentful eyes, and said, “Do you have to ruin all my happiness to be satisfied?”
Wu Xinhao stood up and threw the phone into the small fish tank on the side.
“Of course not. As long as it is the happiness I gave you, I will definitely not ruin it. If you stubbornly refuse to stay a little further from that Xin Nanyi, you can refer to Ji Bu and Yu Cheng’an’s fate.”
Wu Xinhao loved every vivid expression on his face, including the expression that he wants to kill him but didn’t dare do it.
Wu Xinhao pointed at He Li with the cigar in his hand and said, “Go wash yourself and wait on the bed.”
He Li didn’t look ahead and his feet looked like they were glued to the ground, not moving a muscle.
“Don’t forget who gave you everything you have now. If it weren’t for me, you would have been chopped up and fed to the fish by those people in Las Vegas.”
He Li stood up resentfully and headed to the bathroom.
When he slammed the bedroom door, he heard a mocking voice from behind him. “You’re such a wimp and you still want to penetrate others. Be a good boy and get penetrated ba!”
He Li walked into the bathroom and looked at the gloomy-eyed man in the mirror. He picked up the glass and razor next to him and slammed it forward, smashing the mirror again. (this translation is only here on ztranslations.blogspot.com otherwise, stolen)
Listening to the commotion coming from inside, Wu Xinhao gave out a careless smile on his face. In recent years, he had been interested in this little thing so he pampered and spoiled it for a few years, but who knows about the future ne! He Li continued to work but when he was exhausted, he found a place from his head and went to the dark place like before. After the love is weakened, he will not pay attention to the kindness of the husband and wife for a hundred days. If he can please him, he will be a little more active.
Wu Xinhao is forty-eight this year and will soon be fifty. He doesn’t know if he can have such a mind to raise his little lover when he grows old! But He Li didn’t plan for themselves at all, relying on and being arrogant has become a habit.
In a blink of an eye, Q&P has been playing songs for two weeks now and the audio and album sales results for these two weeks have been very impressive. Despite hitting a number of audio sources fog and the return of many powerful seniors, Q&P still won first place in the hit show of Music TV which is their first one.
In the final announcement of the program, there was an additional strong team — Cute Love — who stood on the stage together. They only returned this week. Although they have been singing for two days, they still lost slightly to Q&P in terms of the sound source so they only got one candidate this time.
This is the first time they have applauded someone on the stage since they ascended to the top.
After Q&P got their trophy from the host, they couldn’t hold back and cried. But still crying while very seriously finishing a speech, pear blossomed bathed with rain still had stubbornness which makes people pity and love.
After the speech is the encore time. Because it’s necessary to give a speech to the singer, so the background music encore is a pure accompaniment and the mic is also fully open.
After all the other idol singers left the stage, they dutifully sang and danced seriously as they did during the official performance.
This time there is nothing to say about the black acid anymore. Because of Xin Nanyi’s high-pressure training, their encores did not show any problems except for a bit of crying; no overly obvious big gasps, and even the high notes were honestly soaring up.
