Before going to bed, Xia Xiqing habitually went to his Weibo. At first, this account was only used to share his paintings, but in the end it became a star chaser.
Why so many new notifications? He was startled. Although he was the most famous painter in the circle, and he was also sought after by some fans on regular days, but this time, there were so many new notifications that almost made his Weibo freeze.
Xia Xiqing logged out and restarted, then it became more normal.
[Little Rabbit Guaiguai]: Master Tsing! You are that little brother in white shirt, right?!!
[President Heng, please face me up front]: Fuck is it really Master Summer??? No way?
Has he been discovered? Xia Xiqing frowned in disbelief and flipped through the comments. Indeed, they were all messages from Heng fans, and there were countless private messages too, almost all of which were talking about the events of the press conference a few days ago.
Sure enough, it was dug out. The Internet is really something that makes people have nowhere to hide.
Instead of letting fans guess here, it’s better to blow himself up.
With a broken state of mind, Xia Xiqing turned on the camera and took a picture of his face. The distance was too close. His hair, which had not dried after the bath, was scattered in front of his face. The angle from the bottom to the top was also very strange.
He looked at it, it passably looks like himself, so he casually posted the photo to Weibo.
[Tsing_ Summer]: sharing pictures.
As soon as it was sent out, the vibration of his phone did not stop, new messages kept pouring in, and the excitement of the fans almost poured out of the screen, directly on his face.
[No. 1 Alpha in the universe]: Ah ah ah ah, it’s really Master S! ! That’s so handsome! The appearance of Heng’s fans is really heaven defying!
[it’s a watermelon, not a wintermelon]: My god you’re too beautiful, the mole on your nose is so Su! i’m gone!!
[Little Rabbit Guaiguai]: good skin, good nose, good eyes, long eyelashes, such a tricky angle can hold, sure enough, he is a god-like fan [kneel]
[First Lady Zhou Ziheng]: I always thought that Summer was a godly painter. Now I know you are just an immortal, and you have worked hard [tears]
[The only Heng mother fan on the entire network]: My God, Why do you rely on talent with such a beautiful face?!
Soon, Xia Xiqing’s Weibo became popular. His Weibo ID has once again entered the top of the hot search list, becoming a new Internet celebrity that netizens are fond of talking about. A lot of job offers and even signing up offers came from private messages.
In this era, exaggeration is extremely high. A good appearance becomes the most direct and superficial shortcut to life.

The mobile phone vibrated again. It was a notification from Xia Yunkai.
[Why didn’t you come back to the company to find me when you came back to the country? Come home this weekend, I have something to tell you. ——dad]

Like most netizens, Zhou Ziheng, who was getting his makeup done for the cover of a magazine shoot, also brushes his Weibo.
On the day of Xia Xiqing’s overnight popularity, Zhou Ziheng was almost certain that he had only pretended to be a fan in order to enter the entertainment industry, and then buy some hot search hype and raise a wave of fans. After all, he has a good appearance. It’s easy to become popular in this age of beauty. But when Jiang Yin said that he was unwilling to sign a debut, Zhou Ziheng was a little confused again. Is it possible that he is really just a fan?
So, Zhou Ziheng, who was busy even in his spare time, got on his Weibo side account, clicked on the hot search and found Xia Xiqing’s fan circle account.
It turned out that he was really a fan and a painter.
However, Xia Xiqing hardly posts on Weibo, nor does he forward his various live pictures like other fans, but silently posts his paintings. His painting style is very unique. A few strokes can perfectly outline the texture of the human body, and you can feel the strong hormonal impact from the painting across the screen.
When browsing through his Weibo, Zhou Ziheng also looked at Weibo comments by the way, and found that apart from blowing Xia Xiqing as an immortal painter, his fans were all the same–“My Heng’s explosive Alpha-ness!”, “I can’t close my legs!! Lying flat!”, “Begging for the sun” and so on.
No, what’s wrong with the little girls now……
The finger sliding the screen unconsciously speeded up, and suddenly a picture flashed in front of him, he couldn’t help but stop, and flipped up again.
That picture once went viral. It was a profile of him with a three-step layup, the shadows scattered on his body cut by sunlight, the slender fingers clutching the basketball, the red sweat-soaked jersey, and the tight muscle texture of his body.
He exited the Weibo interface and opened his own photo album. He found this painting in an album named fan art. He never noticed that there was a handwritten signature in the lower right corner of the painting—— Tsing.
It turns out that he had seen his paintings before and even saved them to show off to friends.
Zhou Ziheng, who retired from the side account, hesitated all night, but in the end he still did not delete the painting from his phone.
But he still felt something was wrong.
Probably to take advantage of the heat, the reality show mentioned by Jiang Yin finished the planning work that had been delayed for a long time, finalized the list of stars and ordinary people to be recorded, and started recording on Saturday. On Friday, Xia Xiqing checked in at the arranged hotel at the request of the program team. In the evening, Jiang Yin came to the hotel to see him.
“Are you so afraid of me running away?” Xia Xiqing only wore a pair of cotton trousers and sat cross legged on the bed, wiping his wet hair.
Jiang Yin took a look. His abdominal muscles were clearly defined, which was obviously the result of long-term exercise. It wasn’t that strong, it could only be called lean, but it didn’t match that pretty face somewhat, which surprised her a little bit, but she just put the papers in her hands on the table quietly, “That’s not it. Here is some information about the show. You can have a look at it.”
“Do you have a script?” Xia Xiqing moved his neck, put on a loose T-shirt looking like a high school student. “First of all, I won’t follow your script, so don’t expect anything from me.”
Jiang Yin’s expression was a little helpless, but she seemed to have guessed it, “I knew it would be like this. In fact, there is a script, but this script has nothing to do with you. It’s a secret room plot specially written by the program team.” After she finished speaking, she changed her conversation, “Although the script has nothing to do with you, we still arranged your character settings. We need you to follow them. Anyway, are you not good at disguising?”
This woman always talks straight and forthright, and Xia Xiqing is getting used to it, “So…” He stretched out his long legs, threw the towel on one side of the chair, folded his hands behind his head, leaned back against the wall, and said in a loose voice, “Let’s talk, what kind of character setting have you got for me?”
Jiang Yin sat at the table in her spare time, “You think, Ziheng’s popularity has skyrocketed since his transformation, so the company must want to continue his aggressive setting. If we want to fry a rot CP, what kind of person do you think we should match with who will be easier to get popular?”
Leaning on the bed, Xia Xiqing looked at Jiang Yin. His slow blinking eyes were like a slow lens that kept drawing closer. He started to show a clean smile that was harmless to human beings and animals. The mole on the tip of his nose added a bit of innocence to him.
“Angel character settings. Suitable for all ages.”
Jiang Yin shrugged, “Smart.”
He gave a sneer, which was not at all the gentle look he had just now.
“You seem to have made your own decisions about the Gong and Shou.” Xia Xiqing bent up one leg, put his arm on his knee, held his chin in his palm, and looked at Jiang Yin in an ambiguous way.
“No… Ziheng’s personal settings are… Of course, it all depends on what the netizens think.” Jiang Yin felt a little strange at first. She didn’t expect Xia Xiqing to raise this question, but when he said that, she suddenly felt , although this person is beautiful, his aura is really strong.
Although Xia Xiqing did not conceal his true character in front of Jiang Yin, she did not know Xia Xiqing’s playboy style, let alone that he was always the top, so she could only attribute his words about Gong and Shou to men’s natural desire for dominance.
“Well, it doesn’t matter.” Xia Xiqing’s mouth twitched, and his eyes became gentle again, “I am a person who’s easy to speak to.”
In just a few minutes, the look on Xia Xiqing’s face changed and changed again, which made Jiang Yin amazed. With he’s talent, it’s really a waste not to act. Although she learned Xia Xiqing’s acting skills, she didn’t know why he would simply agree to her invitation, “You agreed to participate in the show, but you don’t even ask how much the reward is?”
“It’s not important.” Xia Xiqing leaned back and fell on the bed. “Don’t worry, I can’t guarantee anything else, but the topic degree will definitely satisfy you.” He suddenly remembered something, he turned his side and lay down and looked at Jiang Yin. “However, Zhou Ziheng probably won’t recognize the persona you gave me.”
“It’s okay. I will talk about it with him. He has been acting for so long, so he won’t rush to dismantle the stage.”
Xia Xiqing raised his eyebrows, always feeling that things were not as simple as Jiang Yin thought.
The next day, Xia Xiqing went to the recording site very early. He was taken to the dressing room and cleaned up briefly by the staff. The makeup artist was a young girl. Although she was used to seeing beautiful stars, she was surprised to see Xia Xiqing. After a while, while putting on makeup, she asked him about skin maintenance tips.
A young assistant named Xiaojie entered the dressing room. Xia Xiqing smiled at the hairy boy in the mirror. The other party felt embarrassed and scratched the back of his head and said, “M-Mr. Xia, sister Jiang Yin asked me to come and be your assistant. You can call me if you need anything while recording the show.”
“I feel that only those who are old can be called Mr.” Xia Xiqing put out his best gentle expression, “I should look quite young. ”
“Ah? No, it’s not… ”
“No?” Xia Xiqing’s eyes widened slightly, deliberately teasing him.
“Ah, I mean… I’m sorry. I’m sorry. You look like a college student. I… I am a newcomer, a little nervous… ” Xiaojie quickly waved his hand, “That…”
“Just call me Xiqing.” The so-called make-up is just a base to draw the eyebrows, it was much faster than expected. Xia Xiqing stood up, turned and shook hands with Xiaojie, “I’m 25 years old, should be a little older than you, but I have to trouble you to take care of me these days.”
“Ah, then I’ll call you Brother Xiqing.” Xiaojie held Xia Xiqing’s slender hand with both hands, “I also have a lot of things I don’t understand, please bear with me.”
So honest. Xia Xiqing was secretly surprised, this is also quite good, and thought that Jiang Yin would put in a fitting informer. It seemed that he was thinking too much.
The recording was scheduled in the evening. In the morning, Xiaojie took Xia Xiqing into the studio and took a set of promotional photos. After entering the studio, Xia Xiqing met two other guests, who also came to participate in the recording. Although Xia Xiqing had just returned to China, however, he knows a little bit about the domestic entertainment industry. He knows both of the two guests. One is the solo female lead singer Cen Cen, who has recently skyrocketed in popularity, and the other is Shang Sirui, a member of the recently popular boy group HighFive.
“Am I the only amateur?” Xia Xiqing turned to ask Xiaojie.
Xiaojie nodded, then shook his head again, “No, there is another amateur girl who is said to be a member of Mensa.”
Xia Xiqing nodded and was quickly called to take pictures. Unlike ordinary amateurs, Xia Xiqing was not afraid of the camera. The photographer first took a few shots, and after checking the preview, he found that it was not bad and was a little surprised, “Have you been a model before?”
“Can be considered so” Xia Xiqing remembered his strange experience of modeling for a friend at the Fashion Design Institute in Florence to make large-scale ready-to-wear clothes. “It’s completely amateur.”
“Very good, your limbs are very long and you are also photogenic.” The photographer took a few more shots, and then officially started shooting the promotional photos according to the requirements of the show. When shooting the last set, Xia Xiqing saw a tall figure entering the studio.
“Zhou Ziheng is coming.”
There was almost no need to distinguish, his radar scanned Zhou Ziheng in an instant, not to mention the dignified face of an actor, with his tall figure you could never find a second one.
Long time no see. Xia Xiqing’s eyes returned to the camera and showed a smile.

The author has something to say:
Xia Xiqing’s early personality was very bad, it’s not consistent with his outside appearance and he’s taking pleasure in it, which was related to the avoidant attachment personality caused by his childhood experience. Only when he met Zhou Ziheng that he started to change. He has never fallen in love with anyone before and has been playing the world.
Little angels who don’t like this kind of feeling can give it up. I hope you don’t scold the characters. I have been earnestly demining from the beginning. If you like a Shou with more perfect personality, you are really not suitable for this novel, please don’t scold the characters. Thank you~~~
Haha, i bet that Zhou Ziheng will not expect to form a CP with him~Thanks for the chapter~
AHHH Xia Xiqing so Handsome that mole in the nose is 666 too handsome!!!
Thanks for the chapter<3
I think that his personality is ok. Who is to say that the “shou” should always be docile and subservient?
thanks for the chapter <3
spicy shou is also delicious (˘︶˘).｡*♡
Don’t worry I like this character very very very very much~ 😘
And, thanks for the chapter 💗
