Chapter 94

Zhang Tan became famous, and it was quite something.

He wasn't famous in front of the public, after all, people cared about actors, directors, producers, singers... and even small cats, dogs, and pigs, but no one cared about screenwriters.

He became famous at Little Red Horse Academy.

Fame came too quickly, catching him off guard.

Whenever someone saw him, they would say:

"Boss Zhang, you're awesome."

Zhang Tan had to stop and politely respond: "Thanks, kid, you're awesome too."

He found Xiao Bai and called her to a corner, telling her to be more humble.

"Xiao Bai, we need to be low-key. Don't praise me in front of the kids anymore, I'm so embarrassed."

Indeed, fame was like a tornado, and Xiao Bai was the one standing in the eye of the storm, causing chaos.

Just like how the nickname 'Pee Black' came quickly, now 'You're awesome' came just as fast.

Xiao Bai, the behind-the-scenes boss.

Xiao Bai laughed, "You need to work harder, Boss Zhang."

Zhang Tan promised, "I will definitely work harder, you don't need to encourage me anymore, I'm already full of energy."

"Okay." Xiao Bai immediately swung to the other extreme, saying fiercely, "Hmph! Why isn't Xiao Bai on TV yet? My aunt has asked me several times, I don't know what to say. Am I lying? Boss Zhang, you need to hurry up."

It made her doubt whether she had just been dreaming and hadn't actually filmed anything. Had she and Liu Liu been sleepwalking?

Zhang Tan came home early today for this reason.

"Come to my house at eight, I have a surprise for you."

At seven, Xiao Bai arrived, stomping her feet.

She didn't come alone, she brought a group of kids.

Zhang Tan welcomed them at the door and counted them, making sure no one was left behind.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7... A total of 10 kids came, including all her good friends.

The living room was packed, full of chatter and laughter.

"Boss Zhang, is this your house? It's so pretty."

"Thank you."

"Boss Zhang, I like your bed, can I sleep on it?"

"Thank you, but you can't sleep now."

"Boss Zhang, I need to pee~~"

...

Zhang Tan was about to go crazy.

Xiao Bai maintained order, shouting fiercely, "Kids! Kids! Stop talking, you're driving me crazy~~"

Liu Liu, the yes-man, chimed in, "Kids, stop talking~~~"

One of the kids immediately responded.

"Liu Liu, you're the one being noisy, stop talking."

"Liu Liu, stop talking, Xiao Bai said no talking."

Liu Liu: (╥╯^╰╥)

Why did everyone dare to defy her but not Xiao Bai?

Xiao Bai even said 'laozi' (a vulgar term), but she didn't say it!

Zhang Tan brought out some fruit and bear-shaped drinks, handing them to Xiao Bai to distribute.

He couldn't control this group of kids, but Xiao Bai could.

"Kids~~ come, eat some fruit, one by one, sit in a row, eat the fruit, you get one, I get one..."

After successfully distributing the fruit and bear-shaped drinks, Xiao Bai diligently reminded the kids not to litter and to throw the peels in the trash, or she would give them a good scolding.

"Boss, do you need help?" Teacher Xiao Liu asked.

"Yes, yes, yes~" Zhang Tan quickly welcomed Teacher Xiao Liu in.

However, the kids were already well-organized under Xiao Bai's arrangement, sitting on the sofa and small chairs, all looking at Zhang Tan with wide eyes.

Zhang Tan said, "I invited you all here today to watch the TV show Xiao Bai and Liu Liu filmed. I'll play it now."

The sparrows on the power pole were startled by a small stone, and the kids in the room were chattering, their voices full of childish innocence.

Liu Liu was worried, but no one listened to her, and her little face was pinched.

Xiao Bai and Teacher Xiao Liu stepped in to quiet the kids down.

Zhang Tan turned on the projector and played the third episode of "Little Actors."

Liu Liu proudly jumped off the sofa, grabbed a small chair, and sat at the front.

"Ha, there's Liu Liu."

She was met with a chorus of kids questioning her, telling her to come back.

Liu Liu immediately called Xiao Bai over, so she would have support.

These two kids were going to be on TV today, so let them sit at the front. At such a young age, they were already at the peak of their lives, shouldn't they be allowed to show off a bit?

Zhang Tan played the TV show, turned off the living room lights, and stepped back with Teacher Xiao Liu, giving her a bottle of bear-shaped drink.

The two of them sipped the bear-shaped drinks and watched "Little Actors" together.

The room was full of kids, each with a bottle of bear-shaped drink, sipping and looking up at the projection with wide eyes.

The third episode was different from the usual ones. Usually, it would start with the plot, but this time, a song appeared.

The theme song "Wang Ning Mei" played for the first time.

One is a fairy from the celestial garden,

One is a flawless jade,

If there were no fated encounter,

Why would they meet in this life?

If there were a fated encounter,

Why would their hearts remain unfulfilled?

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

...

"Xiao Bai?"

"Why are they singing?"

"I don't want to listen to singing, I want to see Xiao Bai."

"It's so ugly."

...

The kids were very unimpressed, some even putting their fingers in their ears!!

Zhang Tan was furious.

Teacher Xiao Liu, being kind-hearted, comforted him, "The theme song is very nice, the kids just don't appreciate it."

Sigh, watching TV with kids is like this, they ask non-stop, a million questions waiting.

After the TV show started, kids kept asking, "Where's Xiao Bai? Why hasn't Xiao Bai appeared yet?"

Finally, when Xiao Bai and Liu Liu appeared on screen, the kids erupted in excitement.

How rare, Xiao Bai was on TV!!!

Only one kid was worried, constantly reminding everyone in a childish voice.

"6666~~~ We're on TV!"

"Me too~~ Me too~~ 666~"

"Strong little pomegranate is on TV too~~"

"Little pomegranate is standing next to Xiao Bai~~"

"Wah wah wah~~~ Why can't I see me~~"

Shen Liu Liu hugged Zhang Tan's leg and sobbed, feeling very wronged.

Finally, the TV show ended. Xiao Bai, annoyed by the noisy kids, scolded them and sent them all away, staying behind to comfort Liu Liu.

Late at night, Liu Liu's mother, Zhu Xiaojing, came to pick her up, hugging and comforting her until she finally stopped crying.

Ma Lanhua also came to pick up Xiao Bai.

She had a bad day at work; someone ran away after getting their shoes polished, which really upset her.

She was in a bad mood and not very patient.

Xiao Bai glanced at her, then glanced again. She had a lot to say, but being a sensible child, she saw that her aunt was in a bad mood and quietly followed her home, her little legs moving quickly.

That night, she talked to her stuffed animal.

At home, Ma Lanhua chatted with Bai Jianping about her bad day.

Bai Jianping was an optimist by nature. Such people can't handle big responsibilities, but they can bring happiness, even if it's just being happy in poverty.

"Xiao Bai, sing a song for your aunt to cheer her up," Bai Jianping said.

Xiao Bai started singing, "Ma Lanhua, Ma Lanhua~~"

After two lines, she realized it was wrong, but it was too late. Her aunt was already angry, and Xiao Bai quickly hid behind her uncle, shouting, "Aunt, I'm sorry, I sang the wrong song."

Ma Lanhua was furious, "You start singing Ma Lanhua, you must have been singing it behind my back. You little brat, you're making me so angry."

Xiao Bai said, "I'm also so angry."

"You're angry?"

"The kids in kindergarten are making me so angry."

"What happened?"

Xiao Bai took the opportunity to babble about being on TV.

Uncle Bai Jianping was delighted, "That's amazing, my Xiao Bai is on TV. Where?"

Xiao Bai said, "In Boss Zhang's TV."

"Where, which TV channel?"

"Boss Zhang's TV channel."

"You're being silly, Xiao Bai."

"I love you so much!"

She was so silly.

Bai Jianping knew he couldn't rely on her and took out his phone, clumsily searching online.

Xiao Bai leaned in, acting as his advisor.

Ma Lanhua, impatient, said, "You two go take a bath, it's late, go to bed."

Bai Jianping, without looking up, said, "Wait a bit, Xiao Bai is on TV, she's a big star... Oh, I found it."

He went full screen and turned the phone's volume up to the max.

Xiao Bai said, "Boss Zhang said to turn off the lights."

Ma Lanhua: "Why turn off the lights?"

Ding~

Although she said that, she still listened to Xiao Bai and turned off the lights, leaning in to look at Bai Jianping's phone.

The room was pitch black, lit only by the phone screen.

The three of them huddled around the small phone screen, waiting for Xiao Bai's brief appearance.

In the darkness...

"Aunt! Why are you pushing me?"

"I'm not pushing you."

"Ouch, you're blocking me."

"I'm not blocking you, you're just small."

"Stop it, Aunt, you're bullying me~~ I'll fight you~~~"

"Don't fight, don't fight, ouch, who hit me in the dark? Who was it??"
