I'm Not Suited for Romance

However, just as An Luning was about to step onto the stage, her ear suddenly hurt as she lifted her foot.

"Ouch!"

She turned her head angrily, and her expression changed dramatically. Her eyebrows were about to shoot up, but upon seeing her agent, Sister Hong, behind her, she immediately became docile, even showing a hint of fawning.

"Sister~ Why are you here?"

Her agent, Sister Hong, didn't answer immediately. Instead, she first glanced at Bai Youlou and the others. Hmm, they're sensible enough to have already quietly disappeared.

Her heart relaxed a little.

She had just seen An Luning so close to Bai Youlou, and her heart had leaped into her throat.

She looked at An Luning again, her tone filled with disbelief. "Do you really think that as your agent, I wouldn't know your whereabouts?"

An Luning's face was full of fawning. "No, Sister Hong, you're the best. I just didn't want to bother you with everything. I just came out for a stroll."

Sister Hong simply smiled. Keep talking.

"Sister Hong, it's all my fault. Please don't blame her," Zhang Xiaorong quickly interjected, taking the blame.

She already felt a bit guilty towards Sister Hong, and now she had "lured" An Luning out to be her support. From her perspective, an apology was indeed necessary.

"I'm not talking about her coming out to be your support, Zhang Xiaorong. That's not a big deal; you just needed to let me know. I could have come with you to cheer you on. But her disappearing without a word is a serious offense!"

Sister Hong was quite magnanimous, stating that it had nothing to do with Zhang Xiaorong. She mainly wanted to discipline An Luning for her "disorganized and undisciplined" behavior.

Did she have any awareness that she was a big star?!

"I was wrong!"

First to admit fault. But are you going to change?!

Sister Hong helplessly rubbed her forehead, looking like she couldn't do anything about it.

An Luning, being "clever," quickly changed the subject. "Sister, you're late. If you had come earlier, you would have seen Sister Zhang's performance on stage. She was like a shining star! Beautiful and amazing!"

Zhang Xiaorong felt a little embarrassed. "It wasn't that exaggerated."

Sister Hong wanted to say something but stopped. She hadn't seen Zhang Xiaorong's performance, but she had seen Bai Youlou's.

She had arrived at just the right moment to fully appreciate his performance of the entire song.

As a professional agent, evaluating him from an objective standpoint, she had been so impressed that she wanted to sign Bai Youlou on the spot!

Give her just one year, and even if Bai Youlou were a complete unknown, she was confident she could make him a superstar!

Unfortunately, this kid's "past record" was a bit terrifying. If only he were a nobody.

Moreover, Sister Hong was very worried now!

Was An Luning here to support Zhang Xiaorong, or was she looking for an opportunity to see Bai Youlou?

Ever since this girl saw Bai Youlou after his incident at the film academy, she had become somewhat strange.

Sister Hong couldn't understand it. She didn't like him when he was a pure and handsome young man, but now that he had become like this, she was even more interested.

What was wrong with her!

Of course, she hadn't understood it at first.

Today, she had begun to understand a little. Bai Youlou did have a certain allure, like a mischievous spirit.

It was a shame she hadn't seen "Whiplash," which was released by Huaxing Company. Otherwise, she would have been even more shocked.

But based on the current situation, Sister Hong would not let her guard down against Bai Youlou.

On the contrary, her vigilance had increased.

The previous Bai Youlou, apart from being handsome, was purely scandalous. Anyone with common sense would know to stay away from him. Back then, she had persuaded An Luning, and she hadn't argued back.

But now, it was troublesome.

The word "talent" could sometimes be worthless, but other times it was worth more than anything.

Even if this thing couldn't be immediately monetized, it could be devastating to some girls at certain times.

Therefore, she had to guard against it strictly!

Zhang Xiaorong had perfectly completed her debut performance as a singer.

Bai Youlou had "conquered" everyone present with his song.

An Luning was taken back by her agent like a little chick.

Everyone had a bright future.

It wasn't until a long time after leaving the performance hall that Bai Youlou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

That was close. Why was Zhang Xiaorong so close just now?

What about the promise not to expose their "relationship"?

As for An Luning, Bai Youlou didn't pay much attention to her. As a person, one should be sensible.

Having used Huaxing Company's film distribution channels, if he were to do anything to their star artist and cause them losses, it would truly be biting the hand that feeds him.

From this perspective, Bai Youlou would consciously keep his distance.

But if An Luning insisted on approaching him herself, that would be none of his business.

After all, Bai Youlou hadn't even spoken a single word to that girl so far.

They were just "netizens."

He hoped this young lady wouldn't "cross the line."

However, Old Zhou and Long Ziqiang clearly still had questions.

"Brother Lou, how do you know that host Xiao Liu will be famous in the future? She's just pretty, right? Is her hosting ability that great?"

"How would I know how good her hosting ability is?"

"You're just talking nonsense?"

"Not entirely. It's because her dad is the Deputy Station Director."

Old Zhou: "How the hell did you figure that out?"

Bai Youlou looked surprised, "You guys can't even see that?"

Old Zhou and Long Ziqiang were dumbfounded. How could they possibly see that?

No choice, facing these two idiots, Bai Youlou felt he had to teach them a proper lesson!

"First, I don't know if you've observed, but even though Xiao Liu is a new host, all the veteran hosts and staff on site are very polite to her."

"Could it be just politeness?" Old Zhou couldn't help but argue.

"Second, the things she wears and uses... are not affordable for ordinary families."

"So her family is just rich. Aren't the families of people studying hosting usually well-off?"

"Third, I noticed she was actually discussing backstage camera issues with the director's team. Is that the kind of treatment ordinary new hosts get?"

"That actually makes some sense. Keep going, keep going."

"Finally, I checked Zhejiang Blue Station's official website and found information about a Deputy Station Director. He is also surnamed Liu, and his age matches."

"Could this possibly be a coincidence?"

"That's why I found an assistant director to ask."

"Go to hell!"

Old Zhou and Long Ziqiang felt their intelligence had been insulted. Couldn't you have just skipped to the last step?

Talking about all sorts of irrelevant things.

Old Zhou immediately switched to schadenfreude mode, "Anyway, Teacher Zhang saw you flirting with that female host just now. You're dead."

Long Ziqiang was also chuckling there, as if he had imagined some strange scenario.

Bai Youlou took out Old Zhou's cigarette, lit one with a click, and said with feigned melancholy, "I'm naturally sensitive and suspicious. I'm not suited for relationships."

"Then what are you suited for?"

"I should be an emperor."
