Debugging in Book Series

Chapter 38.2

  From that day forward, Jing Xi’s life took on a new rhythm — daytime was spent observing Hu Xiao’s lessons from the sidelines, nights were filled with petting sessions with a wolf, and in the midst of it all, he even managed to squeeze in time for a photoshoot.

  Time flew by in the blink of an eye, and at long last, the production crew made their official announcement.

  With anticipation simmering and excitement mounting, they tantalizingly revealed each of the six groups of guests, one by one, during the official announcement.

  A-list celebrities, rising young actors and actresses, seasoned film emperors… Fans stared at this star-studded lineup and found themselves collectively at a loss for words.

  Did the production crew strike it rich or rob a bank? They could not possibly be banking on achieving a grand slam effect in the first episode and then coasting through the rest of their program, could they? Moreover, there was no word on their beloved celebrity having such an ace up their sleeve.

  In an instant, the forum exploded with heated discussions.

  Curiosity gripped the netizens as they delved into the production crew’s history, uncovering two solid variety shows that hinted at their talent. Yet, now they were witnessing a spectacle unlike anything seen before. What exactly had sparked this sudden burst of extravagance?

  The fans were quick to connect the dots. Undoubtedly, the Hu family pulled strings to ensure their young masters got special treatment from the production crew. Outraged, they revolted, each bombarding their beloved celebrity with passionate pleas to scrap the show altogether. Before long, social media and forums turned into a battlefield brimming with a chaotic whirlwind of intense opinions and heated exchanges.

  The production crew waited patiently before finally introducing Hu Che’s partner, De Wen, who was also a fellow artiste from the same company.

  The fans immediately flooded the comment section with a torrent of “Get lost!” and “I’ll never watch it.” comments. Unfazed by the escalating hostility, the production crew maintained their composure and calmly weathered the storm of criticism. After a brief pause, they finally revealed news about Hu Xiao’s partner.

  A moment of dead silence gripped the crowd as they processed what had just unfolded.

  As droves of netizens mindlessly joined the boycott, they scrolled through the comment section until they halted at Yi Zhou’s photos. Suddenly, silence engulfed them all, only to be shattered by a frenzy of reactions.

  [Wtf???]
  [Quick, tell me I’m not the only one seeing things!]
  [I examined it closely, and it’s undeniably Yi Zhou!]
  [So, does this mean we’ll be chasing the show with CEO Duan? Will we get the chance to see him comment and show support?]

  The comment section ignited a frenzy of diverse opinions, sparking a wildfire of discussion that swept through trending lists and online forums like a storm. Every topic imaginable was thrown into the mix, leaving no stone unturned.

  At this juncture, all the onlookers who had been observing up until now were doubled over in laughter.

  It was evident that the production crew lacked the capability to invite Yi Zhou as a guest on the show. Most likely, Hu Xiao took matters into his own hands and personally extended the invitation to Yi Zhou. With Yi Zhou on board, the production team decided to change the lineup of guests.

  As long as the Lupinus Mutants’ ailment was incurable, Duan Chi’s fate would remain bound to Yi Zhou’s.

  Duan Chi was always known for his discreet nature and elusive behavior, so he was notoriously difficult to engage with. With a live target now in play, who among us could possibly pass up such an opportunity?

  Therefore, it was wise to steer clear of mentioning that their beloved celebrity was giving special treatment. In fact, it was quite possible that they not only lacked the ability to do so, but might have even invested a hefty sum to secure the opportunity themselves.

  With that final straw, the fans took matters into their own hands and began reshaping public perception by championing their beloved celebrity’s works. With fervor and determination, they proclaimed that success was not just handed out but earned through raw talent and dedication.

  Amidst their animated arguments, a distinct voice emerged and swiftly garnered attention as a trending comment.
  [Live stream, please! I don’t want to see your peace signs, but rather, the real lucky one!]

  The production crew had foreseen this scenario from the start. From the moment they confirmed Yi Zhou’s participation, they worked overnight to revamp the show’s plan and sought Yi Zhou’s approval. And just like that, they swiftly issued a response, ensuring people that there would be sections that would be streamed live.

  With that, it brought immense satisfaction to people, fueling their excitement and anticipation for this variety show.

  Three days later, Jing Xi and Hu Xiao meticulously packed their belongings, preparing themselves to join the production crew.

  While in the car, the manager made sure to have a one-to-one talk with Hu Xiao, advising him to keep his temper in check and avoid any conflicts with Hu Che.

  As a matter of fact, the production crew had actually consulted the manager before inviting Hu Che. However, their hopes were dashed in an instant when the manager flatly vetoed the idea. Shortly thereafter, Hu Xiao received a phone call from his father, who expressed his concerns about putting his younger brother in a difficult position.

  Hu Xiao burst into laughter right then and there. “Sure, let him come.”

  After uttering those words, he brushed off his father’s curious inquiries about how he had met Yizhou and simply hung up the phone.

  The manager’s growing uneasiness left him feeling unsettled. “You shouldn’t have agreed in the first place.”
  Hu Xiao explained, “It’s fine. I’ve done some self-reflection and realized it’s my duty as the older brother to take good care of my younger brother. That’s why I decided to take good care of him.”
  The manager warned, “… Just don’t go looking for trouble.”
  Hu Xiao reassured, “I won’t. Yi Zhou will be there to keep an eye on me.”
  Jing Xi nodded his head in agreement. “Sure, you can count on me! Even though I may appear to be a dandy, I’ve never been one to stir up any trouble.”

  The manager took a brief trip down memory lane and found his point reasonable.

  Despite being labeled a dandy, this individual merely vented a couple of complaints on social media when called a lucky one. He had neither engaged in any arguments with netizens nor done anything irrational. As of late, he has predominantly shared enchanting travel scenery and profound reflections on life. Furthermore, there were whispers of him being an academic prodigy, greatly contributing to his reliable demeanor.

  With that in mind, he stated, “In that case, I’ll have to trouble you, Young Master Zhou.”

  Jing Xi assured, “Oh, no. It’s what I should do.”

  System could not bear to watch any longer and lit a candle for the manager in advance.
