Chapter 488: Chapter 219: Accidents Are Bound to Happen If They’re Not Expected_2

"Shut up!"

Chagrined, Gou Huai really did clam up after that scolding.

It was indeed satisfying, but it was also genuinely painful...

While the two were messing around, Pei Shuyu had already discussed with Nan Guangzhu and Yuyan, preparing to head backstage.

She turned around to leave but suddenly looked back, "Su Huai, junior, could you bother to come with me and wait, to offer some advice?"

Nan Guangzhu immediately chimed in, "Mr. Su, let’s go, don’t make me get down on my knees and beg you!"

He wasn’t sure what role Su Huai could play, but he knew how to sweet-talk important targets, his attitude couldn’t have been more subservient.

Su Huai had no particular inclination about going or not, it made no difference to him. Neither Pei Shuyu’s request nor Nan Guangzhu’s low stance could sway his decision. However, it was obviously an opportunity to "reward" Chen Nuanhan, so Gou Huai immediately turned his head, smiling radiantly, asking for her opinion.

"You decide for me; interested in taking a look?"

Chen Nuanhan originally did not plan to go and did not want Su Huai to go either, but now with just one sentence from Su Huai, she became the center of attention. Flattered, she no longer wanted to refuse.

"Let’s go then! If both seniors value you so highly, how could I disappoint them?"

Nan Guangzhu grinned happily, ready with compliments, "Goddess Nuan Nuan, today’s celebration wouldn’t start without you and Yu. If you’re not here, we might as well sweep the streets instead!"

Chen Nuanhan smiled contently, gracefully standing up.

She stood opposite Pei Shuyu, yielding no ground.

But young Chen was so easy to coax...

Gou Huai chuckled inwardly, accompanying them toward the side door.

Bai Huitian, Xia Yu, Sao Ji, and others hurried to keep up. It was a bit crowded backstage, but a few more people wouldn’t make much of a difference. If they wanted to join the fun, so be it; it wouldn’t affect anything.

The group noisily made their way backstage, immediately greeted by a bunch of people.

The leader was the current Brother Yi of the student council, Zhang Ye. He had stayed back to coordinate with the contestants, and as soon as he saw Pei Shuyu, his face broke into a big smile.

"Yu, thank you for stepping in to save the day. You’ve really helped us out of a big problem. Nice to meet you; I’m Zhang Ye."

Only now did Chen Nuanhan truly realize the influence of Pei Shuyu.

The term "internet celebrity" isn’t a particularly positive label at the moment, yet when she became associated with tens of millions in wealth, even the head of the student council had to be deferential to her.

Chen felt somewhat uneasy.

One Gu Jiuyue was bad enough, fate like that couldn’t be envied; now another sly fox turns out to be so formidable... Why do I always end up in battles with animals?

No, that’s not right!

The problem isn’t with me, it’s all Gou Huai’s fault—why does he always go after these top-tier goddesses?!

Chen Nuanhan didn’t waste time blaming herself and promptly shifted the blame.

Stymied by her glare, Su Huai, despite all his rogue talents, couldn’t figure out what she was thinking.

However, he didn’t have time to ponder; he first shook hands with Zhang Ye, then greeted Fu Zhitao, until he was intercepted by Chu Changkuo—beside him were the ever-present Wu Tianyou and Hu Shiyu.

Wow, all familiar faces. Enough to make up two tables for Mahjong.

"What brings you guys here?"

Chu Changkuo’s face was tense with anticipation, not daring to look Chen Nuanhan in the eye, but his peripheral vision was busy.

"Coming to rescue the show with your boss."

Su Huai teased him with a grin, "Changkuo, you didn’t think we came here for you, did you?"

Dammit!

I was just asking an extra question!

Annoyed, Changkuo, still boasting mixed with rage, explained the current situation to everyone.

"Shit, I had just left the stage when she came to me to discuss the script, intending to interview me as a highlight. But those two assholes weren’t happy about it!

Babbling on and on, they’re jealous but won’t say it, wanting to stand out without the ability, they rely on being in school for two years longer to lead everyone astray..."

"Man, you really think highly of yourself!"

Wu Tianyou couldn’t listen anymore and sneered, "Is it really personal against you? They are just upset because things were decided a long time ago!"

Chu Changkuo glared back in anger, "What does it have to do with you, someone who was called in to do the trivial work?!"

"I’m also a contestant!"

Wu Tianyou burst out, "If it weren’t for my bad mood during the knockout round, would you stand a chance against me?!"

"Won or not?"

Chu Changkuo was just as scathing, "I’m almost the champion here, and you’re backstage doing odd jobs!"

Hu Shiyu, for some inexplicable reason, added fuel to the fire, "Stop fighting, juniors. You’re both the new generation heartthrobs of the Management School, each with your own strengths. Look, the upperclassmen are watching. Don’t disappoint those who like you~~~"

Far from calming the situation, she further ignited the chaos.

Su Huai didn’t care to listen to their squabbling, shook his head, and turned to walk towards Pei Shuyu.

Chen Nuanhan naturally followed, then Changkuo’s emotions intensified even further, even blurting out an angry remark like "If those two dumbasses don’t apologize, I’m not going on stage."

The two he mentioned were whispering to each other on the other side, surrounded by four or five people, intermittently glancing at Pei Shuyu.

Su Huai took a look and no longer paid attention; since Pei Shuyu had decided to step in, they were no longer a concern.

Nan Guangzhu also said, "Yu, it seems only you can keep them in line..."

Nowadays, the whole school was speculating just how much money Pei Shuyu had made. There was no conclusive answer, but her appearance in a Coaster was something everyone had witnessed.

With time pressing, they exchanged a few pleasantries and began to run through the script.
