After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity-Chapter 486 - 481: Girls Should Stand by Girls
Chapter 486: Chapter 481: Girls Should Stand by Girls
They still opted for the approach of having eight fixed male and female guests. Shen Yan boarded the international flight from the bustling airport, and Xiao Zhao beside her heaved a sigh of relief, "We finally squeezed in, I didn’t expect the Fireworks fans to be so crazy!"
Liu Su said, "That shows how capable Yanyan is!"
"Yanyan has now directly risen to the A-list!" Xiao Zhao was thrilled for Shen Yan!
In fact, with Shen Yan’s earlier popularity, she had already squeezed into the A-list.
Now she was truly stable in that position.
The first-class seats had all been booked by Director Li.
This time, the Qi Family had directly thrown money into this program, becoming the true major sponsor, something Mr. Qi hadn’t told Shen Yan.
Upon entering first-class, Shen Yan saw several guests who had already arrived earlier.
The male guests were all people Shen Yan had worked with before. Zhou Jingming, who had invited her to be his dance partner in Beijing, was one of them.
Wen Yan and Xie Xuan were her friends; they had mentioned this to her beforehand, so it was not a surprise.
Fang Baize, whom she had worked with on "Extreme," was also ranked among the A-listers.
Fang Baize nodded to Shen Yan as a greeting.
"Shen Yan!"
Wen Yan raised her hand to wave.
Shen Yan turned to the female guests, none of whom she had worked with before.
One of them, a strikingly beautiful woman, was squinting at her as she sized her up—not hostile, but not exactly friendly, either.
"You look even more beautiful in real life, hello, I’m Zhong Wei," she said, extending her hand to Shen Yan.
Hearing the name, Shen Yan felt a slight stir in her heart, and then, without any noticeable change in expression, she shook hands with the other woman.
The empty seat just happened to be beside Zhong Wei, and Shen Yan sat down. The two people behind her also introduced themselves.
The fresh-looking pretty girl offered Shen Yan a friendly smile, "I’m Cheng Anxin! It’s my first time joining such a variety show! Please take care of me!"
The other girl, who looked a bit cool and detached, also extended her hand amiably, "Qiao Yanyu."
"Shen Yan."
After exchanging introductions, Zhong Wei continued, "Before coming here, I confirmed that Qin Dingyue wasn’t included. Did Ding Yue ever say anything about me to you? Shen Yan, about that promotional video incident last time, it wasn’t what I intended. You know, sometimes things are out of our control."
Shen Yan looked at her for a moment, and nodded, "I didn’t take it to heart."
Zhong Wei replied, "That’s good, I was just worried that our recording together this time might cause some issues. Actually, my squabble with Qin Dingyue has long been resolved. It’s just the media reading too much into it, coupled with some people stoking the fire, that created the impression we’ve had a longstanding grudge."
Shen Yan, hearing Zhong Wei’s explanation, expressed no opinion.
"We’re all women, and women should stand with women, not make things difficult for each other. Don’t you think I’m right?" Zhong Wei said, sharing her thoughts openly in front of everyone.
As for how much truth was in her sentiment, only she herself knew.
"I agree."
Hearing this, Zhong Wei smiled again, "Then shall we have a pleasant collaboration?"
Looking at her hand extended once more, Shen Yan had no choice but to shake hands again.
"Sister Zhong Wei..." Cheng Anxin behind her saw this and also leaned in to join in the conversation.
Qiao Yanyu occasionally chimed in with a few words, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious and warm.
The few male guests seated further inside exchanged glances and courteously refrained from disturbing the women.
Without any direct confrontations, Shen Yan also felt quite comfortable.
At least there would be no need to deal with anyone lacking in perception coming up to her face, scheming little tricks or saying odd things.
Seeing Shen Yan resting with her eyes closed, the chatter around her gradually ceased.
Until they arrived overseas, the atmosphere remained as congenial as it had been from the start.
A large vehicle took them to an island.
The environment was well preserved and semi-open.
Because they entered for recording, the semi-open became a lockdown, provided entirely for the production team to record.
So now on the island, other than the guests and the production team, there were just the island’s personnel.
The person in charge of the island negotiated with Director Li face to face, while Shen Yan and the others were arranged to check out their accommodations. The staff got off the vehicle and immediately started bustling about with their tasks.
The island was accessible by road and very large in size. Although you could see its ends, from the drone’s camera above, it still seemed very spacious.
Connected to several mountaintops and surrounded by sea.
There was only one bridge leading to the highway.
As soon as everyone got off the car, they were attracted by the beautiful scenery here.
Even though it was winter, the climate was not very cold, and the trees were still verdant; everything necessary was available.
Living in such a beautiful environment, it felt like it greatly broadened one’s mind!
"It’s too beautiful! Yanyan, let me take some photos for you to send to Mr. Qi!" Xiao Zhao immediately ran over to take Shen Yan’s phone.
Shen Yan looked at the message that had come back on the screen and smiled as she handed her phone to Xiao Zhao.
Xiao Zhao took the phone and had Shen Yan strike various poses. After taking more than twenty photos, Shen Yan sent them all to Qi Si.
Qi Si, seeing these photos, wished he could fly over right now to join Shen Yan.
After finishing looking at these photos, Qi Si couldn’t help but call her, "Who took these for you?"
"..." Shen Yan was puzzled but still said, "Xiao Zhao."
"Mm."
"Are they not good?" Everyone said she wasn’t very photogenic. She thought they looked pretty good, but she wasn’t sure if Qi Si would like them.
Qi Si said, "Just photos."
"... Should I send a video?"
"Okay."
"..." Shen Yan felt that Qi Si was acting strangely, "Mr. Qi, what’s wrong?"
"Come back right after you’re done recording. I’ll pick you up," Qi Si added.
"That seems like too much trouble..."
"You don’t like me coming to pick you up?"
"Of course not, I would be very happy if Mr. Qi could come to get me; it’s just that it seems too bothersome. Aren’t you busy with work?"
"I can make time for this," Qi Si added, "I’ll head out the day before you finish recording."
That was abroad.
It made Qi Si very uneasy.
Once abroad, it became Shen Yan’s territory.
If she wanted to leave, it would be much easier.
Outside, his resources were spread too thin, and trying to find her would be as hard as reaching the heavens.
And...
There could be danger at any moment outside!
Perhaps sensing Qi Si’s anxiety, Shen Yan smiled and nodded, "Then I’ll wait for Mr. Qi to come and pick me up!"
"The weather isn’t very good over there; don’t get too close to the sea."
"We are recording on the island; not getting close to the sea is impossible, I think."
"Yanyan, I’m very worried about what happened before recurring."
"Okay, I’ll try not to get near the water!" Shen Yan hurriedly said.
Only then was Qi Si reassured.
The two ended the call affectionately, and Shen Yan looked at her phone and silently smiled.
Xiao Zhao was calling her over to see the scenery in a different direction. Shen Yan put away her phone and walked over, "Yanyan, look over there, what a beautiful rocky beach!"
Shen Yan looked over and indeed saw at the cove a chaotic rock beach with huge stones of various strange shapes, offering a visual feast!
Seeing Xiao Zhao taking out his phone to take photos from every angle, Shen Yan also took out her phone. That’s when Shen Zheng’s call came in.
Speaking of which, ever since her elder brother went abroad, he hadn’t contacted her again, but Shen Zheng did keep in touch with the family. Shen Yan would occasionally hear about him when she called home, and knowing he was safe, she had not asked any further.
He must have seen the recording teaser online to be calling now.
But as soon as she picked up, it was a woman’s voice, "You’re Shen Zheng’s sister, right?"
Shen Yan’s dark pupils narrowed slightly, "Who are you?"
