Chapter 507: It's Her

The Director team was in chaos.

They were constantly monitoring the ratings.

From Chu Yao’s appearance as the opening goddess to a national style dance routine, the ratings took the top spot across all major satellite TV platforms.

Even after the program ended, the ratings remained high and were still climbing.

But, there was no movement on the live broadcast screen.

No comments, no bullet-screen messages.

“Is it jammed?”

Someone asked, using a walkie-talkie to communicate and requested to check the live broadcast data.

Suddenly, Chu Yao’s name flooded the bullet screen.

The celebrities and guests at the scene gradually came back to their senses after the initial shock.

“Why do I feel like Chu Yao’s dance looks familiar, as if I’ve seen it somewhere before?”

“Isn’t that Killing Array, Chu Yao’s movie from this year, Killing Array!”

“Yes, yes, yes!

She is performing her own character from Killing Array.”

“Oh my god, this is so stunning.

I hadn’t gone to see it before because the online reviews were so polarized.”

Killing Array was a movie with considerable controversy.

Some said the character played by Chu Yao was foolishly loyal and filial, disregarding her own safety to the point that her death was deserved.

Others claimed she put righteousness first, defending the city walls at the border, saving the people of an entire city with her flesh and blood, despite the imperial court being corrupt, which made her actions noble.

“No can do, I have to watch it again.

I need to dig into the details.

If I don’t watch it thoroughly, I would be doing a disservice to the fact that Chu Yao danced right in front of me today!”

“I’ll watch too.

I’ve never seen it before, I need to catch up.

The box office must have my contribution.”

“Let’s arrange for a midnight showing!”

The fans, both inside the screen and out, went wild for a moment.

Even the host was stunned for a few minutes.

The stage remained empty, and only after being urged by the assistant did they manage to regain their composure and continue with the agenda, although their voice was still shaky.

“Am I the only one concerned about the lady playing the guzheng?”

“I’m also interested, she’s so pretty, she must be the protagonist during her youth.

At the end, when Chu Yao and the enemy died together, the guzheng lady also coughed up blood.”

“So this means that even the most beautiful times of her youth were taken away along with her.”

“I really want to know who that lady is, she plays so well.

She must be a professional, right?

I’ll dig around and see if there’s a renowned guzheng master that matches.”

In Y country.

Bang.

Bang.

Bang.

Three gunshots in succession.

The bullets pierced through the center of the target.

Upon closer inspection, the bullseye had been shot through, with the rest of the target remain unscathed.

The man tossed the pistol to a subordinate and took a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

“You just mentioned that the young misses wanted what?”

The subordinate respectfully replied, “She wants a gun.”

“Nonsense!”

The man’s face fell, and he strode into the villa.

“Daddy!”

As soon as he entered, a fluffy little doll rushed over and jumped into his arms.

The man skillfully extended his hand to lift the three-year-old girl, deliberately keeping a stern face as he asked, “You asked Uncle Xia for a gun?”

The fluffy girl stuck out her tongue, “I want Daddy to teach me shooting, can I?”

“No!”

The man flatly refused, “I’ve told you, you’re not allowed to touch that stuff.

Aren’t you listening to me anymore?”

“Then I want to learn the guzheng.”

“What?”

On the way back, he thought of many reasons, considering that they say children from two to eight years old are at their most emotionally sensitive.

He needed to weigh his words carefully on how to decline without hurting the little girl’s feelings.

Yet, he didn’t get to say any of the prepared reasons at all.

She suddenly made a drastic turn.

“Learn what?”

“The guzheng.”

The little girl pointed at the TV, “Daddy, look, she plays the guzheng so beautifully.

I want to learn.”

“You were waiting for me here?”

The man pinched her cheek and obligingly glanced at the TV.

When he saw Nan Jiaojiao dressed in a ruqun and wearing a mask, his eyes suddenly sharpened.

It was her!
