Sweet Beauty

What a joke, Zeng Zhelan was already happy just to see someone like Qiao Hongya, so how could she dare to approach him?

There was a saying, 'one can only look from afar and not play with it', and that was exactly what she was feeling right now.

Liang Zixuan smiled but didn't say anything. She was trying to save her voice.

The plane landed firmly on the ground of Shenzhen City. Liang Zixuan, Qiao Hongya, and Zeng Zhelan walked out of the airport together. The chauffeur was already waiting for them there.

Shi Jingguo was waiting anxiously at the door. When he saw Liang Zixuan, his face shone with joy. As he was about to greet her, he suddenly saw Qiao Hongya walking next to Liang Zixuan. 

Shi Jingguo was shocked for a moment and raised his hand to rub his disbelieving eyes.

That's really Qiao Hongya!

Oh God, this time Liang Zixuan had gone too far!

Shi Jingguo felt like he had been hit at an acupuncture point. His legs wouldn't move. He stood there blankly, watching Liang Zixuan and Qiao Hongya walked towards him with his eyes wide open.

Liang Zixuan had already speculated that Qiao Hongya's presence would surely scare them to death as soon as he appeared. She smiled and pushed Shi Jingguo's arm teasingly. "Director Shi? Hello? Are you there?"

"Huh?" Shi Jingguo finally came back to his senses. He looked at Liang Zixuan, then turned to Qiao Hongya and said, "Zixuan, don't tell me that the guest you invited is Qiao Hongya?"

Liang Zixuan nodded with a smile. "Yes."

"Oh my God!" Shi Jingguo was so excited that his saliva was flying everywhere. He quickly reached out to shake Qiao Hongya's hand. "Mr. Qiao... To be able to meet you… I...I just -"

Qiao Hongya extended his hand kindly and shook hands with Shi Jingguo. "Director Shi, calm down. Take a deep breath." 

"Haha …" Shi Jingguo withdrew his hand from Qiao Hongya's and decided not to wash his hands for a week.

"When I saw Mr. Qiao, I was so nervous. Haha, I was so nervous that I couldn't speak."

As they stood in the doorway, Liang Zixuan shivered and sneezed as the two men greeted each other.

The air conditioner had been turned on on the plane. The temperature was very high. When she came out, it was warm and cold. A cold wind blew around her body, making her feel cold.

When Shi Jingguo saw it, he quickly said, "Let's go inside the car first."

In the car, Shi Jingguo was talking to Qiao Hongya excitedly while Liang Zixuan just sat in the back, frowning uncomfortably.

As the air conditioner blew, she felt the hot wind on her face. Her face was burning, and her head was starting to ache.

Qiao Hongya turned his body slightly and saw Liang Zixuan's red face. He raised his hand and touched her forehead. "Are you having a fever?"

Liang Zixuan shook her head with her eyes closed. "I'm fine. Maybe it's because of the cold wind just now. I just need to rest for a bit."

Zeng Zhelan immediately opened the thermos, poured a cup of hot water, and handed it to Liang Zixuan. "Here, drink some hot water first."

Liang Zixuan took the cup and took two sips. She looked up and saw that Qiao Hongya, Shi Jingguo, and Zeng Zhelan were all looking at her nervously. She pursed her lip and smiled reluctantly. "Don't worry. I just can't get used to the temperature change. I'll be fine after a short rest."

Shi Jingguo asked worriedly. "Your throat …Can you still sing?"

Liang Zixuan cleared her throat and tried to sing twice. As soon as she opened her mouth, her throat felt dry and sore. She opened her bag and ate the medicine. "I'll be fine."

She was afraid that Shi Jingguo and Qiao Hongya would worry her, so she joked on purpose, "Luckily, the two songs I chose today are rather sad songs. If I couldn't express such sadness, at least, I could still gain a lot of sympathies when I opened my mouth, hehe.."

Qiao Hongya's face immediately turned green. "Zixuan, you can't joke about yourself like that. I promised your grandmother that I would take care of you!"

Shi Jingguo gaped in surprise when he heard that. From Qiao Hongya's tone, it seemed that his relationship with Liang Zixuan wasn't ordinary.

At first, he thought that Han Yuanjun invited Qiao Hongya for Liang Zixuan, but now, it seemed that Liang Zixuan, herself, invited Qiao Hongya.

How much face and courage would it take to invite Qiao Hongya? He had never participated in any entertainment show abroad.

Shi Jingguo suddenly felt that the viewership ratings for this final episode would definitely explode.

Without further ado, Shi Jingguo hurriedly called the head of the broadcasting station and informed him about this.

Hearing that Liang Zixuan had invited Qiao Hongya, the head of the broadcasting station jumped from his chair on the spot. "What?! Qiao Hongya? Shi Jingguo, are you sure? Is it really Qiao Hongya?"

Shi Jingguo held his cell phone and laughed. "How can I be wrong? Mr. Qiao is sitting in my car right now."

Pausing for a moment, he continued, "It's just that Liang Zixuan just got off the plane and she seems to be starting to have a fever now. Head of the broadcasting station, look -"

"Alright, I know what you are trying to say. I'll arrange for some people to prepare some medicine in the VIP lounge. You can come over without worry."

The head of the broadcasting station hung up the phone. He was so excited that his legs started running fast. After instructing the staff to clean the VIP lounge, he personally drove to the nearest pharmacy and bought antipyretic medication for Liang Zixuan.

Just as he returned to the television station, Shi Jingguo's car also arrived. He walked over excitedly and helped Qiao Hongya out of the car. "Aiya, Mr. Qiao! I finally have the honor to invite you to our program."

"Zixuan said that she needed a guest to sing a duet with her. Since I had nothing better to do, I came to help her. She's sick today, so please take care of her."

"Aiyo, how can you say that? Liang Zixuan is sick and she's still joining our program. This girl is really a good person and has a kind heart. Don't worry, Mr. Qiao. We will take care of her no matter what."

The head of the broadcasting station knew very clearly that if Qiao Hongya could say such words, it was to support Liang Zixuan. So no matter how many songs she can sing on the stage today, it will still give viewership on the program.

The head of the broadcasting station led the way and led Liang Zixuan and Qiao Hongya to the VIP lounge.

Shi Jingguo had already gone to the studio and started recording the program.

Several finalists were sitting in the lounge, wondering why Liang Zixuan had not arrived yet. At this point, Huang Heng ran over in a hurry.

"Liang Zixuan has arrived, but her throat isn't in good condition, and she has a fever. Look, whoever takes the last vote will be handed over to her. She needed to rest for a while before going up on stage."

Several singers looked at each other, wondering if Liang Zixuan was really ill or if the program team gave her special treatment.

Coincidentally at this moment, Liang Zixuan walked inside the lounge.. After seeing the seniors, she bowed politely without saying a word.
