Chapter 304: The Real Wealthy Family, Gu Wenzhu ‘s Arrival
Translator: _Min_
[Fans of Lu Yan, why are you still jumping around and being annoying? Every time you jump, your bias loses a spot in the rankings.]
[On the night of the group formation, it would be quite amusing if he fell out of the top nine.]
The large screen began to roll, and a video played.
First, a seaside landscape entered the frame, followed by a woman walking into the shooting area.
She was dressed in a long skirt, carrying a handbag.
Her face wasn’t shown, only from the neck down.
Her figure was impeccable, her skin porcelain white and delicate.
The fans were taken aback.
“Xie Yu, I’m telling you, our family is poor, we don’t have money, you have to work hard yourself,” Xie Yanqiu’s voice came slowly, “Don’t let me see you not being serious. If you don’t come first, I’ll bust your head open.”
A fist appeared in the camera.
The clenched fingers wore two rings, and a gold bracelet adorned the strong wrist.
Xie Yu recognized the brand at a glance, feeling speechless.
His mom is actually trying to show offher wealth, right?
“Okay, don’t worry about him,” suddenly a man’s hand reached over, covering the camera. “He’s grown up, let him play by himself, we still have to go to the park, let’s go.”
The screen went dark, and the video ended there.
[Haha, poor Brother Xie, you have no status in your family.]
[Parents are true love, the son was an accident.]
[Wait! Did you guys see the watch Xie Yu’s dad was wearing?! If I’m not wrong, it’s worth millions!!!]
[?Did you add a few zeros by mistake?]
[Nonsense, I clearly typed the word out, and Xie Yu’s mom’s bag, also very expensive, an RM classic, I need to check the price.]
The comments piled up, with some fans already starting to pull up comparison pictures.
“It seems Xie Yu’s parents are very much in love,” Lu Ningsheng began to liven the atmosphere. “Your mom likes traveling, it’s a good hobby.”
“My mom… well, she doesn’t have other hobbies, just—” Xie Yu expressionless,
“likes buying clothes, bags, jewelry, I guess.”
Their house was filled with various branded bags, and his dad was still buying for his mom.
Even his bedroom was occupied, what could he say? Lu Ningsheng was stunned, “That’s a very expensive hobby.”
[Haha, even Queen Lu was dumbfounded.]
[That hobby is indeed expensive.]
[Really, Xie Yu’s fans, just keep your eyes closed and praise without any basis. An RM bag? I just checked, that style on RM’s official website showed a price of three million, what family can afford it?]
[Counterfeit goods, I can buy a lot too.]
[Xie Yu’s surname is Xie, isn’t he from the Sijiu Xie family? But I heard the Xie
family forbids their members from entering the entertainment industry.]
[Impossible, if Xie Yu was from the Xie family, he wouldn’t be a mere trainee; Shengxing Entertainment would kneel to recruit him.]
Xie Yu pinched his brow as he walked off the stage.
Xu Xiyun was dazed, “Brother Xie, your mom actually wants to bust your head open.”
Xie Yu shrugged, “She’s always been serious about these things.”
He had been disciplined by his mom and dad since he was a child.
His evolutionary gene was too domineering, the guards couldn’t suppress him. To further control the power of an evolved being, guidance from other evolved beings was needed.
“Xie Yu brought us quite a surprise,” Lu Ningsheng regained her composure.
“Let’s see the next one.”
The videos were arranged according to the current rankings, with Lu Yan fourth.
Right before him was the video from Grandma Xu cheering for Xu Xiyun, which successfully garnered him a wave of popularity.
Lu Yan’s video was very official, just some dry words of encouragement.
Only the antique vases in the background were somewhat interesting.
[emm, not to say anything, but isn’t the Lu family a wealthy family? How come their style sense is so poor, and their posture is not good, hunchbacked and chest-contracted.]
[Although Xie Yu’s mom didn’t show her face, that figure, that temperament, is leagues above.]
[Really disappointed.]
[Disappointed +1.]
This video did not help Lu Yan gain any popularity; instead, it rapidly dropped his public favor to rock bottom.
In the waiting area, how could Lu Yan not see the expressions of the fans on
He clenched his fist, his expression coldly turned towards Xie Yu, “Your family only knows how to play these tricks? Pretend to be rich?”
Like many netizens, he also didn’t believe that Xie Yu’s family background could afford to splurge on luxury goods.
“Yeah.” Xie Yu, hand in his pocket, “Buying your family would still be a breeze.”
As long as he sold all his mom’s clothes, bags, andjewelry.
Lu Yan clenched his fist tighter, veins popping on his forehead.
This episode even specially invited a well-respected old actor from the entertainment industry to cheer for the trainees.
The investors could also arrange for him to interact more with Lu Yan.
But it still didn’t garner much popularity.
[Ah, only one week left until the group formation night! Can’t wait!] [The final performance! Wonder what surprise Brother Xie will bring us.] [Can I look forward to Teacher Si appearing? Lowly wish.]
[Though I don’t want to burst your bubble, unless someone stirs things up, that salted fish Qingqing won’t budge.]
After the recording, the trainees returned to the training camp.
“Not bad, who would have thought such a video could boost your popularity,” Si Fuqing clapped, “Where’s your mom?”
Xie Yu paused, “My dad took her out for fun, said they would come back on time for the final night.”
“Oh.” Si Fuqing realized, “The son was an accident.”
Xie Yu:
His dad even personally called him, asking him to straighten his attitude and position, not to overshadow Xie Yanqiu.
“But your mom is very thoughtful, recording a family support video,” Si Fuqing stroked her chin, “though the style is quite unique.”
Xie Yu felt a rare headache, “Yeah, right, Teacher Si, my mom said she wants to meet you.”
“Sure.” Si Fuqing smiled, “I really like your mom’s temperament, but it can’t be too late, I have to record another variety show by the end of May.”
Xie Yu raised an eyebrow, “What show?”
“A survival type show, heard there’s a segment crossing Crocodile Lake,” Si
Fuqing thought, “Wonder if I can catch a few crocodile eggs to roast and eat.”
Xu Xiyun timidly reminded, “Teacher Si, crocodiles are protected animals, eating their eggs is illegal,”
“Oh.” Si Fuqing looked a bit disappointed, “Then it seems I can only hunt chickens and wild boars.”
Xu Xiyun:
Who exactly is surviving here!
“Alright, prepare for your group formation night, I’ve already given you the new choreography,” Si Fuqing said, ‘Wait for me to get your costumes in a couple of days to check the fit, I’m going home first.”
The six nodded.
Xu Xiyun was curious and asked, “Brother Xie, what did Teacher Si prepare for us in terms of costumes?”
Xie Yu thought for a moment, “Lan.”
“What?” Xu Xiyun was shocked, “I’m also worthy of wearing Lan?”
Xie Yu:
Typical you.
The next day at noon, Gu Wenzhu just got off the plane.
Followed by a pale-faced Qu Lingyun.
He hadn’t slept well for many days.
Especially when he complained to Si Fuqing, Si Fuqing only reminded him to take care of Gu Wenzhu, saying how important health is for the elderly.
Utter nonsense.
He saw Gu Wen Zhu visiting so many places, seeming even more energetic.
Qu Lingyun couldn’t help but speak, “Teacher, can we rest a bit, this search is like finding a needle in a haystack?”
“I don’t like seeing you idle,” Gu Wenzhu huffed, “Of course, I know this isn’t the way to do it.”
Yun Lan would eventually send him the clothing design and the address to send the clothes.
He was just using this to get Qu Lingyun in line.
Qu Lingyun followed reluctantly.
“Hey.” Gu Wenzhu made a call, “It’s me, have you finished making the two set of clothes I ordered?”
“Yes, Mr. Gu.” The other side was respectful, “We used the best materials as per your instructions, one of the sets has five versions as you requested, are these for sale?”
Lan’s core design drafts were only made in one piece.
Unique in the world, a lone edition.
Not something money can easily buy.
“Not for sale,” Gu Wen Zhu said, “I’ll give you the address, send them here.”
“Okay, sir.”
The call ended.
Gu Wenzhu frowned.
This girl, when will she send him an email, he’s dying of anxiety.
He opened the map, tound an ancient town, and planned to go there tor inspiration.
Suddenly, a message popped up on his phone.
[Ding, you have a private email, please check it promptly..]
