Everyone had a bit of PTSD about the guests Director Gong invited, but they were still very enthusiastic about inviting guests themselves.
After the event ended, Xia Zhiyi and the other two male guests tidied up the venue. After saying goodbye to the two of them, she went to find Director Gong.
Director Gong: "As for the cell phone, it's..."
Xia Zhiyi smiled gently, " Director Gong, I've come to get that work phone." It was the phone Xu Chen left behind.
Director Gong paused for a moment, then realized that Xia Zhiyi hadn't come with his phone, and said, "Oh, you want to contact Xu Chen to help you find someone? Sure, sure."
Without even asking for help, he got up and took out a recently released domestic mobile phone from the drawer of the table behind him, handing it to Xia Zhiyi: "I thought you would contact your sister. I think it would be good to invite your sister over."
He had never met Xia Wanyi in person, but he had caught a glimpse of her when the show first aired.
However, it was just a fleeting memory, leaving only a vague impression that Xia Zhiyi and Xia Wanyi were both good-looking, and nothing more.
Xia Zhiyi: "My sister's school starts soon too."
The implication is that there may not be time.
Director Gong watched him start the camera and casually remarked, "Your sister is a college student, right?"
Xia Zhiyi: "Graduate student."
Xia Wanyi skipped a grade.
Due to various circumstances back then, Xia Wanyi ultimately couldn't continue her postgraduate studies. With Xia Zhiyi here this time, her studies certainly won't be disturbed.
Director Gong smiled and praised, "Not bad."
At this point, the value of a college degree has decreased, and there are no graduate students yet. Moreover, in the entertainment industry where the educational level is generally not very high, a college degree holder can be praised to the skies.
Xia Zhiyi smiled, checked her phone's battery, and said to Director Gong, "Thank you for your help, Director Gong. I'll go make a call from the other side."
Director Gong: "Okay, okay."
After arriving at another empty room, Xia Zhiyi casually walked around the room twice to make sure there was nothing extra, and then dialed Xu Chen's number.
However, it's unclear whether Fu Yunyi was also contacting Xu Chen, because when he called for the first time, Xu Chen's phone was busy.
Xia Zhiyi wasn't in a hurry. After hanging up, she stood by the window looking in the direction of the small house. At this moment, the light in front of the small house was still on, bright and warm, amidst the chirping of insects unique to the Summer Night.
Less than a minute later, Xu Chen called back.
Xia Zhiyi: "Hey, Sister Chen."
Xu Chen first explained, " Fu Yunyi called just now, so I didn't answer your call."
Xia Zhiyi: "I guessed it, Brother Fu asked Sister Chen to help him make contacts, right?"
Xu Chen: "Yeah, he found it troublesome to call everyone one by one, so he simply handed this matter over to me. Do you also need my help to find someone?"
Xia Zhiyi smiled and said, "No need. I'm just an ordinary person. There's no need to invite someone I don't know well just for this. After all, it's a live broadcast, and there are always a few sharp-eyed viewers. It wouldn't be good if they saw through it."
Upon hearing this, Xu Chen chuckled on the other end of the phone and said, "Are you going to invite your sister? If she's going, I can take her there too, so she doesn't have to go alone, which is safer."
Xia Zhiyi: "Probably not, my sister probably doesn't like being in front of the camera."
Xia Zhiyi: "But I'll ask first. If my sister wants to come, I'll let you know."
Xu Chen responded, then felt a little strange. "So what do you want me to do?"
Xia Zhiyi: "Well, it's nothing much, it's just that if my sister doesn't come, I might be left without anyone here, so I thought I should let you know."
He has already signed a contract with Tianhuan. Although the full process is not yet complete, the intention to cooperate has been established, and he cannot appear too selfish.
Xu Chen actually liked his reporting behavior. It wasn't that the company needed to know everything the artist did, but because of the special nature of the profession, if the company couldn't have more information, they would be caught off guard when dealing with emergencies.
Xu Chen: "I see, I understand. Don't worry, the company has always had people stationed in your live stream. If anyone says anything unpleasant, a professional team will guide them. Unless someone sends trolls to sabotage you, nothing serious will happen."
Xia Zhiyi: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Sister Chen."
Xu Chen: "It's not hard at all."
At least for now, it seems much easier to take care of Xia Zhiyi than Fu Yunyi.
Fu Yunyi, ha, he's just a young master who treats his manager like a housekeeper, only caring about Sister Chen when there's something to do Xu Chen when there's nothing to do.
After ending her call with Xu Chen, Xia Zhiyi dialed Xia Wanyi's number.
This phone doesn't have Xia Wanyi's number, but Xia Zhiyi has memorized all of Xia Wanyi's contact information, so there's no need for that much trouble.
"Hello, is this Zhiyi?" Xia Wanyi's gentle voice rang in my ear.
Hearing the familiar voice, Xia Zhiyi smiled slightly, and even her voice was softer than usual. "Good evening, sister."
Meanwhile, after ending the call, Xu Chen, thinking about the task Fu Yunyi had asked her to do, rolled her eyes and contacted Fu Chi's special assistant. " Fu Yunyi has entrusted me with the matter of inviting guests, just in case. I wanted to ask if President Fu has any arrangements for this."
The assistant relayed the matter to Fu Chi.
Fu Chi called Xu Chen directly, "What are the plans for Xia Zhiyi?"
Xu Chen had assumed he was talking about Fu Yunyi, but instead he mentioned Xia Zhiyi. He paused for a moment before saying, " Xia Zhiyi said he'd ask his sister if she wanted to go first; if not, he won't invite anyone else."
Fu Chi: "He contacted you?"
Xu Chen: "Yes, I left him a cell phone to use as a work phone. We just finished a call."
Fu Chi: "Give me the number."
Xu Chen: "... Okay."
It's not a difficult thing. Fu Chi is Xu Chen's boss, and actually Xia Zhiyi's boss as well. What's so difficult about a boss asking for a work number?
However, as soon as Xu Chen gave her the number, Fu Chi left with the words "Do whatever you want with Fu Yunyi " and hung up, leaving her completely bewildered.
After a long while, Xu Chen muttered, "It seems like President Fu Xia Zhiyi quite a bit."
Xu Chen pondered Xia Zhiyi's appearance and then considered Fu Chi's past behavior. The slight anxiety in his heart subsided. "It should be fine. President Fu isn't that kind of person."
Even if it were true, President Fu suddenly went crazy and wanted to sexually harass the company's artists, it couldn't be Xia Zhiyi.
Unless you've lost your mind.
Otherwise, if they were to try to take advantage of Xia Zhiyi, wouldn't that be courting death?
