Chapter 233

Sun Tiantian was really there. As soon as she walked into the banquet hall, she was spotted by Qin Wei who called out to her. If not for her injured arm being inconvenient, Qin Wei would have run over to hug her dear relative.

Sun Tiantian was also looking for her. Hearing her voice, she quickly turned around and went up to meet her. Sun Tiantian was also very excited. Although she couldn't give her a big hug, she gently patted her back with one hand, "Weiwei, you've had a tough week!"

They had just sung together on stage, but because of the rushed timing, they didn't have a chance to talk at all. So the first thing Sun Tiantian wanted to do when she came was to find her.

Qin Wei nodded. It had been too miserable. So far, Sun Tiantian was the only one who had comforted her. This was what a best friend should do.

"It's good that it's all over. I need to go home and recuperate..."

"Where's Teacher Qiao?"

Sun Tiantian didn't even let her finish speaking before looking around for Qiao Sixiao.

Qin Wei: "Why are you looking for her? I'm hungry. Can you get me something to eat?"

"Oh...alright..."

Although Sun Tiantian responded, she was clearly distracted and didn't move an inch.

Qin Wei: "......"

"Look over there."

Qin Wei raised her right hand to point her in the direction. Following the direction of her finger, Qiao Sixiao was standing in the corner with Shen Kai.

Although she didn't know what they were talking about, they looked to be chatting and laughing, and both seemed to be in good spirits.

Sun Tiantian bit her lip with a fierce look on her face.

"Look at the top-tier celebrities standing together, isn't that sensational," Qin Wei said from the side.

"When top-tier celebrities meet, they are each the elite in their own field. A double A-list couple is truly exceptional. Director Sun, take a good look and feel and ponder more to be able to write even better works. This will aid your side hustle."

Sun Tiantian was silent for a moment and looked at Qin Wei disdainfully.

"Just this? I've actually written about it before."

Wow...

Qin Wei smacked her lips and asked her, "I'm not involved, am I..."

Sun Tiantian nodded. "They are the main characters. You appear in the story because the plot needs it. To put it bluntly, you're just a plot device."

"Hmm?"

When Qin Wei heard this, she became interested. She had browsed most of Director Sun's works. She initially felt some of them were decent, but later they became too homogenized and repetitive.

In Sun's stories, she was always the bullied innocent white lotus. Anyone would feel bad after seeing too much of that.

Life was already miserable enough. Why couldn't she be awesome in fiction?

"Great, a slice of life story about a top-tier celebrity couple? I want to see it. But before that, can you get me some food? I want to read while I eat."

"Wait for a bit."

Sun Tiantian looked at the time. The celebration banquet was about to start soon.

"Wei Lai will come over later too. She's my reader now. Let's read it together when she gets here."

...

The lights in the banquet hall were gradually dimmed. The spotlight on the stage lit up. The emcee stood on stage to kick things off. The leaders gave speeches, then everyone raised their glasses in celebration and the formal banquet began.

"Tiantian, let's go get food..."

Qin Wei stifled a yawn and pulled Sun Tiantian next to her.

Sun Tiantian nodded. Just as the two were about to leave, they were stopped by a staff member and reluctantly followed him to the waiting room.

Inside, photography equipment was set up for an interview. This was also why Li Yao had insisted she go.

She could accept it though. Other than the brief interview backstage at the event tonight, over the past week, the only question she got from reporters who showed up at the barracks was—

"How does it feel to live in a sixty-person dormitory?"

Sitting down and adjusting the lighting, the host began asking questions.

"Weiwei, long time no see. We all know you've been training recently and seen from the videos that you've done really well, especially powering through the thirty kilometer overnight march. Everyone was very impressed. Can you share with us how you felt?"

"Exhausted, sleepy. It was really cold in the mountains at night. By the end, my mind went completely blank."

What Qin Wei said was true.

It was late, yet she didn't expect the live stream interview still had many people watching—

【Unfortunately the overnight march was filmed by drones, so there weren't that many shots showing my Lu E. But Lu E did great to complete such a long march. 】

【Even if she was near last place...】

【Hurry up and ask how she got injured! Whoever dared clip my goose's wings, I'll destroy his entire heaven! ヽ(‘︵ ?メ)ノ】

Coincidentally, the host also asked:

"Can Weiwei share with everyone how you got injured?"

It was Song Huanyuan who twisted my arm.

"Training accident. It's not serious, just a sprain. It'll heal in a few days."

She still avoided mentioning Song Huanyuan, although she disliked the woman. She couldn't direct public opinion to cyberbully a soldier either.

"Weiwei, you must rest well."

The host said and then glanced at the bullet screen comments:

"There are many new friends today. Everyone still doesn't know Weiwei well. Let's ask two more questions then."

The host spoke as the staff brought over pre-selected questions.

"These two questions were really randomly chosen. A fan wants to ask Weiwei, what do you usually do when you're not working? Any places you like to go?"

"Yes."

Qin Wei said,

"I go to court hearings with my ID to remind myself to abide by the law at all times. I also learn legal knowledge to safeguard my rights and interests."

Bullet screen comments— 【?】

【Lu E will probably strictly review her own contracts from now on. Can't handle another Backlash incident.】

The host nodded and spoke to the camera:

"Very good. Every citizen should learn some legal knowledge, have strict requirements for themselves while abiding laws, and also be able to protect themselves. I'll also remind all fans here that the Internet is not an extra-judicial zone. Always pay attention to your words and actions!"

"The last question...

Oh, this isn't a question but a small request. Can Weiwei agree to the fans' wish?"

Qin Wei was wary and didn't readily nod in agreement:

"Tell me what it is first..."

"Because your fans are all very concerned about your military training and can feel your self-discipline, they also want to have strict requirements of themselves. It's trendy now for idols to record a custom morning alarm for fans. So your fans also hope to get an exclusive morning alarm recording from you Weiwei."

She could do this.

Qin Wei felt there was no difficulty and picked up the mic from the host's hand.

"Wake up, wake up, ring ring ring..."

Bullet screen comments—

【Ring your *ss! With such despairing tone, after listening I just want to give up on life directly. Still wake up?】

【Just tuned in, don't know what's going on. Is Qin Wei singing a lullaby?】

【Qin Wei sucks】

Qin Wei also saw the passing bullet comments and sighed:

"I suck? Pff— Mainly it's been so long, I can't bear to hurt you guys..."

【Come hurt each other! 】

【You afraid of me? 】

Qin Wei: "No foul language!"

【Just say it just say it just say it!】

【Just say it + ID number】

Qin Wei raised her brows:

"Then I won't hold back. I hope everyone can really use the next part as their alarm."

【Bring it on!!】

"Have you finished paying your mortgage? Car loan? Credit card bills? Huabei and Jiebei balances? Have you finished your homework? Passed your tests? Are you satisfied with just passing? Why are you looking at me? Are you looking at books? Relying on knowledge and looking at me will build our country? Will shouting hubby make me yours? Wake up!"

【...】

【Crying, crying now. Stop scolding.】

【It's correct to wake up fans but not by making them bawl...】

...nhn

The interview ended smoothly. No matter if the bullet screen comments were scolding or crying, Qin Wei had to return to the banquet hall now.

She was starving...
