Chapter 437: A Prelude to the Event

Yu Ziqi was particularly interested in the mask Xia Xibei took out. Therefore, he was excited when she offered to change his face.
Before leaving, Xia Xibei called Nie Zehai and said she would bring the mask over, and also visit the set.
Nie Zehai readily agreed.
There was just one last mask left from the previous masks Xia Xibei gave him.
He had to admit, with the mask, it was much easier for him to go out and the paparazzi couldn’t catch him at all.
Other than his manager and two close friends, no one else knew that he had such an amazing thing.
His best friends also wanted a mask, but it was all up to Xia Xibei.
Currently, Nie Zehai was shooting a new drama.
This drama was a project he had taken on before, and he was already in the cast when “The Legend of Qinghe” started airing.
His popularity was now very different from before, becoming a top young actor in one great leap.
He was originally the supporting male character, but because of his popularity, the director and scriptwriter were now discussing adding more parts for him.
He had many fans, and when the new drama started airing, there would definitely be many viewers watching the show just for him.
Nie Zehai did not dispute this.
This was what the director and the market wanted, and who didn’t want higher ratings? And it was good for him too.
However, with more scenes for him, others’ scenes would have to be reduced.
Moreover, his soaring popularity was a huge threat to others—especially the male lead of this drama.
These days, the atmosphere on set was a bit strange.
Nie Zehai understood what was happening, and his attitude was still as modest as ever, which made many people have a better impression of him.
After his popularity jumped, Nie Zehai also took on a few commercials, and in a few days, he had to go to the recording of “Full Steam Ahead,” so his schedule was full.
Because of his busy schedule and the increase in the number of scenes, he was very occupied these days, often staying on set until late at night.
When the agent brought Xia Xibei and Yu Ziqi over, Nie Zehai was still shooting a scene.
When Yu Ziqi arrived at the set, he looked around at the machines and the various people coming and going, his mouth hanging open.
This was a whole new world for him!
Xia Xibei was much calmer.
She was not unfamiliar with this environment, and actually felt a little bit of affinity for it.
“You’ll have to wait, Zehai has to keep working.”
Nie Zehai’s agent, Brother Mao, was a man in his thirties. He had a clean look and a steady personality, just not too much hair.
Xia Xibei nodded. “It’s okay, we can wait. However, let’s go to the lounge and wait, so we don’t get in the way of everyone’s work here.”
Mao gave her a look, “Okay then, I’ll take you guys in.”
“Okay, thank you Brother Mao.” Xia Xibei nodded, “We’ll pay attention.”
“It’s okay.” Brother Mao waved his hand and joked, “As long as you don’t break anything, it’s fine.”
With Nie Zehai’s current status, he was qualified to have a private lounge.
After Brother Mao brought the two of them inside, he left.
While Yu Ziqi looked around curiously, Xia Xibei suddenly asked, “Do you want to take a picture?”
“Yes!” Yu Ziqi nodded, but hesitated again, “But… Can I send it?”
“Let’s ask Brother Hai later.”
“Great!”
The two of them waited inside for half an hour, until Nie Zehai finally came back.
However, before they had talked much at all, there was a knock on the door.
“Brother Hai, are you here?”
Xia Xibei jumped up and pulled Yu Ziqi behind the screen. “Brother Hai, we’ll hide out for a while.”
Nie Zehai didn’t know what to say.
What was there to avoid?
