No, when recording the next episode of the variety show, he absolutely must keep his distance from Gu Suian, keep a cold gaze, and not reveal his fan identity!
Furthermore, he privately wrote fanfiction about Gu Suian, including stories with a romantic subplot.
He rarely writes romance storylines, mainly because he has no experience in dating and is afraid of not writing them well, and it also feels strange. But Strawberry Bobo is so good at praising people, she almost coaxed him into becoming an embryo, and he impulsively agreed.
In addition, given the science fiction theme, Gu Suian's character is more like the protagonist in the movie, which is different from the real person. He didn't have many concerns when writing, but upon closer reflection, he suddenly felt that he was a bit abnormal... like a pervert.
Wen Feiran rubbed her face hard, then fell onto the bed and curled up in a ball.
How is he going to face Gu Suian in the future?!
Wen Feiran was sprawled out on the bed when his phone suddenly rang, each ring striking his sensitive nerves. He involuntarily shuddered twice and sat up abruptly.
An unfamiliar number appeared on her phone. Wen Feiran hesitated for a long time before answering, but didn't speak.
"Feiran."
A warm, deep voice came from the other end of the phone, carrying a faint smile that felt like a gentle breeze.
Wen Feiran froze for five or six seconds, unable to believe her ears, and almost bit her tongue when she opened her mouth, "Is it Teacher Gu?"
"It's me."
Wen Feiran was stunned and inadvertently blurted out her true feelings. "Teacher Gu, how did you get my phone number, and why are you calling at this time?"
Gu Suian accurately grasped the key point. "Are you busy? Am I bothering you?"
"No." Wen Feiran looked up, her gaze meeting his fanfiction. She felt guilty for a second. "I was eating."
"Eat slowly." Gu Suian noticed his hurried tone and reminded him before getting down to business. "I have a friend I've worked with before. He's preparing a movie and after seeing your car chase scene, he thinks you'd be perfect for the lead role. He asked me to ask you if you're interested. Would it be convenient for us to talk for a bit?"
Wen Feiran licked her dry lips, looking very troubled. "I'm very happy to receive this call and honored to have this opportunity, but I have no relevant acting experience, and my personality isn't suited for acting. I'm not up to the task."
Gu Suian did not reveal his identity, but he had worked with internationally renowned directors, making him a dream collaborator for other actors. This opportunity was extremely rare.
However, everyone has a different personality, and therefore will make different choices.
Gu Suian spoke gently, reassuring him, "It's okay. We'll understand and respect whatever decision you make. I just called today to ask about it; don't worry about it."
Wen Feiran nodded. "Sorry, I've wasted your time."
"How could it be a waste of time?" Gu Suian didn't finish his sentence, then changed the subject, "You get some rest, we'll see you in three days."
After chatting for a couple more minutes, Wen Feiran hung up the phone and headed towards the restroom.
He looked at himself in the mirror and realized he had been smiling the whole time.
Receiving a call from his idol means he's a fan at the very top of the pyramid!
Wen Feiran had just become Gu Suian's fan and received many perks; now there was no turning back.
*****
Three days passed quickly, and the fanfiction had almost completely sorted out the plot, except for the romance.
After the first draft was sent, the client was very satisfied and generously gave Wen Feiran another month to gradually move away from the romance storyline.
After dealing with other issues related to different online personas, Wen Feiran was finally able to focus on participating in the recording of the next episode.
The production team was very secretive, and instead of posting the theme on Weibo as usual, they only released a vague preview. However, the show's popularity did not diminish at all, with many netizens waiting for half an hour in advance and flooding into the live stream as soon as it started.
Hi everyone!
[Do you know how I've spent these past three days? Each day felt like an eternity, I'm practically dying of waiting! lol]
Indeed, I've never felt life so boring!
[Why is the screen so black and there's no sound? Is there a problem with the live stream?]
[I just checked around, and all the live streams are like this. This platform is garbage. Is it lagging again?]
The live chat is very smooth, there shouldn't be any lag... I get it, this is the show's trick!
Wen Feiran, as a guest on the show, was also quite bewildered. He spent more than ten hours on the road, traveling by car and plane, and the production team kept it a secret the whole time, not knowing where they took him.
He was covered with a black cloth as soon as he got off the plane, and he took the opportunity to take a nap. When he woke up, he felt someone leading him forward and locking him in a room.
After hearing the door close, Wen Feiran waited patiently for another five minutes before tentatively removing the black cloth covering her eyes.
"..." He blinked, almost thinking he had gone blind.
After losing one's sight, a person becomes extremely insecure. Wen Feiran cautiously took a step forward and finally felt her way to the wall.
He didn't panic. Following the simplest pattern, he circled the wall and finally found the doorway and the innermost switch.
Wen Feiran's eyelashes trembled slightly before her eyes adjusted to the light, and she looked around.
He was locked in a very small room, surrounded by white walls, with no furniture or information prompts, and a combination lock on the front door.
The password was too simple; Wen Feiran glanced at it and opened the door directly.
When he went outside, he found himself surrounded by densely packed rooms, one of which was filled with singing.
Wen Feiran knocked on the door and cautiously asked, "Who's inside?"
Even through the door, he could feel the vibrant energy emanating from her. "Feiran, what are you doing outside?"
