That's right, the owner of the voice was none other than Xu Zhiqing!
Yang Qiqi's mind went blank.
Although she didn't exactly have a close relationship with Xu Zhiqing, they had at least dined together once.
How could Yang Qiqi fail to recognize Xu Zhiqing's voice?
The Gold-rimmed Glasses agent, seeing that something was off with Yang Qiqi's expression, walked over.
Yang Qiqi leaned into his ear and whispered.
The expression on Gold-rimmed Glasses became extraordinarily exaggerated, his mouth agape, unable to close it again.
Hearing the intelligent and gentle voice on the phone, Yang Fei hesitated for a moment.
After a long while, he took a deep breath, "Aqing, is it me?"
"You... you are... Brother Fei! You're still alive?"
From the other side of the phone, a scream came through.
After the scream, silence abruptly fell.
Then, came Xu Zhiqing's trembling breaths and sobbing.
"Brother Fei, is it really you?"
"Everyone in the industry says that you had already... in the Amazon jungle..."
The delicate, intelligent female voice on the phone said haltingly.
She was so excited she could barely contain herself, as if she were about to burst into tears the next second.
Yet, she suppressed those emotions fiercely, even her voice sounding incredibly hoarse.
Yang Fei didn't speak anymore, sighing instead.
The intelligent, gentle voice on the other end instantly became urgent.
"Where are you, I... I need to see you."
Yang Fei let out a heavy puff of smoke.
He said indifferently, "I'm in Yannan City, and I know you're in Yannan City, too."
"Come over. I'll send you my WeChat location. There just happens to be a small favor I need to ask of you."
"Okay, okay, Brother Fei, you must wait for me, don't disappear again, I..."
"Give me a moment."
The phone was filled with the excited, incoherent voice of the gentle woman.
She repeatedly reminded Yang Fei several times and then hung up the phone.
Yang Fei made the call from a corner.
Su Yinxue and the two female office workers had already reached the makeup room's door.
They were waiting at the doorway for Yang Fei to finish his call.
Su Yinxue did not believe for a second that Yang Fei could summon Xu Zhiqing with just a few words.
That guy was simply deceiving Yang Qiqi.
But Gold-rimmed Glasses and Yang Qiqi, like toads struck by lightning, stared blankly at Yang Fei.
Fear was written all over their faces.
Just who was this guy?
"Let's go."
Su Yinxue, seeing Yang Fei hang up the call, turned around to leave.
Yang Fei called out to stop Su Yinxue.
He glanced indifferently at Gold-rimmed Glasses and Yang Qiqi.
"Xu Zhiqing will be here soon, Yinxue. Get the contract ready."
"What, Xu Zhiqing is really coming? You're joking, right?"
Su Yinxue's eyes widened in shock.
She looked at Yang Fei with a naughty smile, disbelieving.
Even Little Zhou and Sister Cheng, who were behind Su Yinxue, were dumbfounded as they stared at Yang Fei.
Yang Fei chuckled and snapped his fingers.
"Yinxue, have a little faith in me, will you?"
"Hurry up with the contract, don't get flustered later on."
Su Yinxue looked at Yang Fei with astonishment, "How do you know Xu Zhiqing?"
"Isn't... Isn't the gap a bit too wide?"
Yang Fei gave a wry smile and surrendered with his hands up.
"You know, I was a soldier, a soldier who raised pigs."
"Once, Miss Zhiching visited the troops for a morale-boosting performance, and the army chose me to present her with flowers onstage."
"That's how I met Miss Zhiching. I didn't expect that she would still remember me."
"Hmph, keep bragging. After all, bragging doesn't cost a thing!"
Su Yinxue snorted, her eyes darting between Yang Qiqi and Gold-rimmed Glasses intentionally or unintentionally.
She noticed the two of them had ashen faces, lost in a daze, which puzzled her even more.
Behind her, Little Zhou and Sister Cheng were excitedly preparing the contract.
They still didn't believe that Yang Fei could really get Miss Zhiching to come.
Even if it was just to coordinate with Yang Fei, to play a trick on Yang Qiqi, the two female office workers were more than willing to be deceived.
More than twenty minutes later, a Bugatti Veyron burst into the photo studio.
The sedan had not yet come to a complete stop when a girl emerged from the luxury car, as delicate and beautiful as the moon.
She was wearing a white layered dress, her black, glossy hair tracing disheveled paths in the wind.
Her country-overturning, city-overturning face was recognized by nearly the entire population of over a billion Huaxia people.
Xu Zhiching!
Everyone in the makeup room on the second floor was stunned.
Xu Zhiching's beauty, tantalizing to any man and enviable to any woman, was her unique signature.
On film and television, on urban promotional banners.
In various entertainment programs.
Any appearance of Xu Zhiching was always the center of attention.
And now, she had shown up downstairs and was rushing up in a very crazy state.
Everyone, as if in a dream, gazed blankly at Yang Fei.
This unbelievable scene was all because of a phone call from this driver, this odd-job man?
"Brother Fei, it really is you... wuwuwu."
The moment Xu Zhiching entered the main hall of the makeup room, she rushed over and pounced on him.
She threw herself into Yang Fei's arms, clutching his neck tightly.
Xu Zhiching used all her strength as if wanting to fuse her soft body into Yang Fei's.
She sobbed, her tears falling like dewdrops on a lily, streaming down large and heavy, wetting Yang Fei's shoulder.
Yang Fei was also feeling a tangle of emotions.
He attempted to smile, gently patting Xu Zhiching's shoulder.
"It's okay, it's okay, be good, don't cry."
Everyone, including Yang Qiqi, Gold-rimmed Glasses, and Su Yinxue, was dumbstruck watching Yang Fei.
They all had a surreal, dreamlike sensation.
Was everything happening before their eyes real?
Yang Qiqi was utterly shocked.
She had still been harboring a glimmer of hope that even if Yang Fei could get Xu Zhiching to come over, it was nothing more than a superficial relationship.
But seeing their intimate embrace, Yang Qiqi felt her heart sink to the depths of an ice cave.
However, Yang Qiqi had weathered many storms.
After a brief moment of distraction, she quickly took out her phone and began to covertly film.
Any gossip about Xu Zhiching was exceedingly valuable news.
Xu Zhiching, who had always been hugely popular but never involved in scandals, was now unleashing a bombshell here.
She was seen in an intimate embrace with a strange man.
If this topic were released, the entire circle would go insane.
And as the initiator of the topic, Yang Qiqi would inevitably see her fame soar.
What did it matter whether she worked with Xu Zhiching then?
With fame, there would be plenty of opportunities to make money.
Yang Qiqi had a good scheme.
Unfortunately, just as she had recorded a segment, her phone was snatched away.
Yang Qiqi looked up only to see Yang Fei looking at her with a teasing smile.
Meanwhile, Yang Fei held her phone high up, "What are you doing?"
"Give it back to me,"
Yang Qiqi said urgently.
She hurriedly tried to snatch her phone from Yang Fei.
Regrettably, Yang Fei was too tall, and no matter how she jumped, she couldn't reach it.
This scene, reminiscent of a monkey act, was quite comical.
Xu Zhiching had already calmed down but still clung to Yang Fei, not avoiding any intimacy.
She recognized Yang Qiqi and with a look of surprise said, "Miss, you look very familiar, have we met before?"
"Pfft!"
Little Zhou and Sister Cheng couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Yang Qiqi used Xu Zhiching for comparison, referring to her as "Sister Zhiching" at every turn.
After all this time, it turned out that she wasn't even recognized by her.
"Sister Zhiching, I'm Yang Qiqi, we met two months ago,"
Yang Qiqi stood still.
In front of Xu Zhiching, she dared not act rashly.
Xu Zhiching thought for a moment and then apologized with a smile.
"I'm sorry, I truly can't recall."
"Right, are you and Brother Fei friends?"
