I’m Sorry Xi-laoshi (2)

“Mr. Bai,” a staff member called out for him.

“Hm?” Bai Qi waved and said, “I’m here.”

The staff member quickly came over, nodded at Xia Yang and politely addressed him. “Xia-ge.” Although he had as many anti-fans as ox hair, he also had as many fans as the stars in the sky! He was at the peak of popularity!

Xia Yang nodded in response.

He looked as the staff member escorted the young “Mr. Bai” away.

The staff member escorted Bai Qi to the front of the stage.

They have reserved a special seat for him in the first row.

“We will start filming soon,” the staff member said.

“Please contact us if you face any issues, here’s a walkie-talkie. If you are thirsty or hungry, feel free to ask us to grab something for you!” The staff member wanted to make sure that he was properly cared for.

The audience who had entered the venue a long time ago saw who the staff member had escorted over.

Shouts echoed throughout the hall.

“Ahhh! Does this mean that Xi-laoshi is here?”

“Bai Qi!!!”

Xia Yang, who was standing beside the curtain, frowned in response.

He could act better than him, and it seemed like he had more fans than him… For a moment, Xia Yang felt like a fake celebrity.

Bai Qi smiled and waved at everyone in a poised manner. Then, he sat down and remained silent.

Xia Yang was dumbfounded.

‘He is able to smile so naturally despite the shouts and screams.’

Bai Qi is likely the type of celebrity that all managers want to have under their wings.

“Xia-ge, what are you looking at?” his assistant tapped him on his shoulder and continued, “We have to go change now.”

“I’m looking at Bai Qi.”

His response gave his assistant a fright. “What do you mean, Xia-ge? He’s not someone you can look at as you please.”

“Why?”

“He’s Xi-laoshi’s wife! And Xi-laoshi is on set right now!”

Xia Yang was stunned for a moment. “Xi Chengyun? He’s married?”

“Mn, he is. You’ve been way too busy with work lately. Let’s go, let’s get you changed into something else…”

Xia Yang’s assistant received a phone call from the manager right after he’d sent Xia Yang to the dressing room.

The manager sounded a bit weird. He sounded excited and afraid, his voice was shaking as he said, “I heard that Xi-laoshi will be attending as a special guest today, has he arrived yet?”

“I think so, I can already see Bai Qi.”

“Then… we’re doomed,” the manager took a deep breath and said.

‘Why do you sound so excited at the mention of us being ‘doomed’?’

The assistant couldn’t wrap his head around this.

Then, the manager on the other end said exhilirantly, “Did you know? Something appeared on the Hot Search just moments ago. Do you know how outrageous the tea is? Turns out that Bai Qi has a sub-account which he uses to fanboy over celebrities, and the celebrity it’s dedicated to is our very own Xia Yang! Bai Qi posted Xi-laoshi’s picture on the wrong account.”

The assistant was stupefied.

The manager was bouncing off the walls as he said, “If only we can leverage on this matter… Hasn’t Xia Yang been under the radar for the past few days because he was recording songs for his new album? This is the perfect chance for him to ride on their popularity. If we can get Bai Qi to praise him on the spot, wouldn’t Xia Yang seem even more charming?”

The assistant quickly went to find Xia Yang and conveyed the manager’s message to him.

Xia Yang didn’t comment on whether he’d do it.

He simply asked with a confused face, “I am charming?”

“Of course! He’s Xi-laoshi’s partner and a fan of yours! Isn’t this enough to prove that you have charms?”

“... If he were asked in an interview, I think he’d immediately ask me to stop acting,” Xia Yang replied.

‘Huh?’

Soon, the filming started.

Bai Qi suddenly received a call from Shang Guang.

However, since the filming had already started, he had no choice but to hang up the call and reply with a question mark.

【It’s not a huge issue】

Shang Guang replied after some thought.

It truly wasn’t a huge issue… Who doesn’t have a few celebrities that they favour?

The Hot Search… Ah, never mind, forget about it.

Who hasn’t appeared on the Hot Search before?

Two topics, namely #BaiQi_fanboy_XiaYang and #Domesticating_Dinosaur, soon appeared at the top of the Hot Search list.

Xi Chengyun’s fans who were bashing Xia Yang for taking advantage of their idol’s popularity had no choice but to comment in a more gentle manner. They went from saying things like “S*n of a b*tch” to “bollocks”.

【To be fair, “domesticating a dinosaur” is really sweet】

【Our sister-in-law is simply fanboying, nothing more.】

Of course, there were people who were unhappy with the situation.

【I knew it, his fanboying over Xi Chengyun was all an act! He likes Xia Yang, oh god, he likes a substandard idol like this! Come on, someone like him doesn’t deserve to like Xi Chengyun】

【+1, I hope Xi Chengyun sees his true colors soon】

【I’m speechless. Can’t he restrain himself? =.= His partner is a man, so how can he like another man?】

A heated discussion was happening online. Even “The Acting King” received its share of popularity from the discussion.
