After "Superstar" ended, the kids started to appear in various variety show interviews, accumulating quite a bit of exposure.
As a result, Peak began recruiting on a large scale.
Tang Ze and Xiao Yue were now growing more in tune with each other’s work. While other companies fought over power and profits, these two knew each other’s likes and dislikes well, and they had achieved a certain degree of complementarity. Because of their cohesion, their team was invincible, especially with the support from Huahai and the backing of a heavyweight. The rise of Peak was causing a whirlwind in the entertainment industry.
Sun Ling now had an official management team, but Peak’s main artist resources were still in her hands.
These past few days, one of her kids had been complaining of a toothache.
Sun Ling had her assistant make an appointment at the hospital, but when they arrived in the afternoon, they were besieged by fans.
Sun Ling had no choice but to drive there herself to pick them up.
Nowadays, these young boys, as long as they were somewhat good-looking, easily garnered the adoration of young girls.
And Qiao Yichen, the champion of "Superstar," was such a cool-looking boy.
Unlike An Yang’s inspiring journey, Qiao Yichen was a bit colder because he wasn’t good with words. But the young boy always managed to get things done thoroughly, his attentiveness was off the charts, and that created what was known in the industry as an "adorkable" contrast, thus attracting a large following of fans.
Sun Ling drove to the oral hospital and, outside the consultation room, she saw Qiao Yichen’s assistant.
"Sister Sun Ling, Yichen is inside, but the doctor is really fierce."
Sun Ling peered inside and was immediately taken aback. Wasn’t this Gu Zheng, who she joked could orbit the earth three times if he cheated?
Feeling that his gaze was about to sweep over her, Sun Ling quickly looked outside. How awkward, it truly was a small world.
Half an hour later, Qiao Yichen’s treatment was done, and the doctor’s assistant was getting him ready to go to the outpatient department to pick up medicine. At that moment, Gu Zheng in his white coat caught a glimpse of Sun Ling’s profile.
Sun Ling, quick on her feet, followed behind Qiao Yichen, but Gu Zheng caught up and tentatively called out, "Sun junior sister?"
Unable to avoid it, Sun Ling turned to look at Gu Zheng, "What do you want?"
Gu Zheng approached her and extended his hand, "Do you know how much it cost me to replace my tires after you cursed me to have a blowout?"
"Then today, I’ll send you another blessing. May you always have rain on your dates, traffic jams when you go out, no seasoning packet with your instant noodles, and no toilet paper when you need to use the bathroom."
Gu Zheng: "Still a spicy little chili pepper."
Sun Ling: "I was young and frivolous, senior brother, let’s not dwell on the past anymore. Let everything go with the wind. Goodbye, farewell forever."
Having said that, Sun Ling nudged Qiao Yichen, signaling him to hurry up and not give this plague any more chance to talk.
Gu Zheng glanced at the fans outside the glass door and suddenly said with a smile, "You won’t be able to leave . I have a secret passage, do you want to use it?"
Sun Ling: "The hospital has a secret passage? How do you know about it?"
Gu Zheng just smiled, his demeanor casual, "For sneaking out on dates, don’t you know this?"
Sun Ling was speechless and glared at him for a long while: "Lead the way!"
Gu Zheng folded his arms, unhurried: "Add me on WeChat first."
Left with no choice, Sun Ling had to agree to his outrageous demand, but while adding him, she still cursed internally, "I hope your phone falls into water and is impossible to retrieve!"
"Junior sister, with that expression, are you cursing at me again? If you keep this up, I’ll start billing you!"
