Chapter 59: Do you think I look particularly like an idiot?

Seeing Bai Su walking over with a smile on her face, Tang Chong knew that the matter was settled; his proposal had been approved. He wouldn't have to wear a skirt or fur, nor reveal his identity.

"It's settled," Bai Su said with a chuckle. "Their reactions were the same as mine. At first, they thought the ad was a bit of a prank, without much of a highlight. But after some thought, they understood the meaning behind it. Director Feng and President Cai both said we could give it a try. You should prepare. We'll proceed according to the plan we discussed."

"Hmph," Zhang Heben said, clearly dissatisfied. "Why do we have to pursue him? Can't he pursue us? We're girls, you know."

"Benben, this is just an ad," Bai Su explained.

"I know. I'm just complaining. If it were real, I wouldn't like him at all," Zhang Heben said.

"..."

A few makeup artists from the production team came over, saying they would help the three members of the Butterfly Group with their styling.

"Miss Tang Xin, it's an honor to help you with your styling," a sweet girl said with a smile as she stood in front of Tang Xin.

"NO, NO, NO," Ken shook his finger and walked over. "Xiao Xin is mine. I'll do his styling. You can do something else."

"Mr. Ken, this is what the director instructed," the girl said, feeling awkward. On one side was the director's order, and on the other was one of the most famous stylists in the industry. She really didn't know what to do.

"What? Don't you trust my skills?" Ken said with a cold laugh. "I'm telling you, I'm a professional. You have to trust my professionalism. If anyone doubts it, let them come and talk to me personally."

"Alright," the girl had no choice but to comply with Ken's order.

Bai Su smiled inwardly, thinking how fortunate it was that Tang Chong had tamed Ken. Otherwise, many things would have been much harder to handle.

The school bell rang, and students walked out of the campus in groups.

Tang Chong, wearing a high school uniform with the Butterfly Group's signature ribbon around his neck, appeared. The ribbon fluttered, and his delicate face was captured in a close-up under the golden afternoon light.

As he walked onto the lush green soccer field, Zhang Heben, also in a high school uniform, approached with a slightly shy but sweet smile. At the same time, Lin Huiyin ran up from behind, her white skirt flapping in the wind, revealing her long, sexy legs.

Tang Chong looked ahead and then behind. The camera zoomed in on the ice cream in his hand, and then he took a bite.

"Cut," Feng Yang said excitedly, waving his right hand as if he had just accomplished a great feat. "Perfect. Super perfect."

The assistants then approached, inviting the three members of the Butterfly Group to step down and handing them towels and mineral water.

"Play it back," Cai Yanfen said, standing next to Feng Yang.

"No problem," Feng Yang agreed and replayed the footage they had just recorded.

The beautiful and funny scene appeared again.

"Great. Absolutely great," Cai Yanfen smiled widely. "Heben is so cute. She really looks like a middle school student. Huiyin didn't laugh when she ran, which made it clear how much she cared about the boy. Most impressive is Tang Xin. How can he act so well? He looks like a boy. Handsome, energetic, and funny. He has a bright future. I believe this ad will significantly boost Miao Miao's market share."

"I agree," Feng Yang said. "Zhang Heben and Lin Huiyin are playing their true selves. But Tang Xin is extraordinary. She's a genius. She has great potential. With her performance today, she will appeal to both men and women. In the future, not only will men like her, but she will also win over a large female fan base."

"As long as you two are satisfied," Bai Su said happily. She was the happiest and most proud that things had been resolved so smoothly. When Tang Xin first proposed this crazy idea, she hesitated but eventually decided to accept it, with a mix of anticipation and anxiety. She never expected such a pleasant surprise.

"Satisfied. Very satisfied," Cai Yanfen said with a smile. She thought that the contract with the Butterfly Group would expire at the end of the year. She needed to sign a new one quickly, or the cost would be much higher when they became even more popular.

"President Cai, I think the theme of this ad could be 'Miao Miao, I am the only one' or 'Miao Miao, the feeling of a beating heart.' You decide which one is more suitable."

"Let's go with 'Miao Miao, I am the only one,'" Cai Yanfen said without hesitation. "Our Miao Miao is unique."

"OK. Once Tang Xin's voice improves a bit, we'll record their voices. Today's work is done, everyone can go home," Feng Yang said excitedly. As the director, he would also benefit from the success of this project, gaining both wealth and reputation.

"Director Feng, Manager Bai, everyone has worked hard today. I've booked a private room at Bao Hua to treat everyone to a meal. Please do me the honor of joining us," Cai Yanfen said, knowing how to handle people and extending the invitation promptly.

"Thank you, President Cai," Bai Su said with a smile. "I'm worried that Tang Xin and the others might be tired, so I want to send them home to rest."

"No problem," Cai Yanfen said. "Even if they rest, they need to eat first. Don't worry, it won't take long."

"Yes. I also want to chat with the Butterfly Group. Manager Bai, please don't refuse," Feng Yang said, now in a great mood, putting aside his 'big star' attitude, arrogance, and reserve, and inviting them himself.

Bai Su had no choice but to agree, saying, "Alright. It's our honor."

Bai Su went over to explain to Tang Chong and the others. Just as she was about to take them to the car, a silver BMW convertible sped over.

The ad was being shot at a foreign language school in Mingzhu City. Since it was Saturday, the school was empty, with no students around. The convertible had a clear path, as if it were in a street race.

Screech.

The car stopped next to the production team, and a thin man in a white suit and wearing Armani sunglasses got out.

People are judged by their appearance, and this man's looks were not particularly attractive, and his physique was not reassuring. However, with the sports car, designer clothes, and the air of a nouveau riche, he still managed to elicit gasps of admiration from some of the girls in the production team.

"If you're not handsome, you must be very rich."

This was the standard many women used when choosing a partner. He met the second criterion.

Seeing this man, Bai Su's face stiffened.

Sun Qing, he had indeed obtained their shooting schedule from the company and had come to intercept them.

Zhang Heben glanced at Tang Chong with a teasing look and said, "Sun Wukong is here. Bai Gu Jing needs to transform quickly."

"Benben, don't talk nonsense. How can Tang Xin be Bai Gu Jing?" Bai Su whispered sternly.

"Aunt Bai, you're out of date. Online, it's said that white-collar, backbone, and elite women are Bai Gu Jing," Zhang Heben said with a grin. "Sister Tang Xin certainly meets these criteria. I wonder if this Bai Gu Jing can escape Sun Wukong's golden cudgel. In 'Journey to the West,' Bai Gu Jing was killed by Sun Wukong with one blow."

Bai Su walked over to Tang Chong and whispered, "Sun Qing, Tang Xin's suitor, the son of the company's vice chairman. You don't need to speak. I'll handle it for you."

Tang Xin nodded but said nothing.

Sun Qing nodded and smiled at the people around him, then quickly walked over to the three members of the Butterfly Group.

"Tang Xin," Sun Qing said with a joyful expression. "We finally meet again."

"I thought you were here to see me," Zhang Heben said, pretending to be jealous. "Last time you said you were looking for me, and this time you come and call out Tang Xin. You change your mind so quickly."

"Ha, Benben, you're still so sharp-tongued," Sun Qing thought, hating Zhang Heben to death. He thought, sooner or later, he would get her.

"Mr. Sun, Tang Xin's throat is sore. The doctor told her not to speak," Bai Su explained with a smile.

"Oh, I remember you mentioning that," Sun Qing said, looking at Tang Chong, feeling something was off. Tang Xin used to have a neutral style but was more delicate. Now, she not only had a neutral style but also a stronger presence. Although her face was the same, her aura was different from the Tang Xin he knew.

"What's going on?" Sun Qing was puzzled. "Is it because Ken changed her styling?"

"Tang Xin, how could you be so careless? Don't you know how important your voice is to a singer? Are you feeling better now?" Sun Qing looked at Tang Chong with burning eyes, showing concern.

"She's feeling better, but she still needs some time to rest. She can't speak for now. During the ad shoot, Tang Xin couldn't do the voiceover. We'll have to wait until her voice improves and record it in the studio," Bai Su said. She had already agreed to Cai Yanfen's dinner invitation, but now that this troublemaker had arrived, she had to get Tang Xin out of there quickly. "Mr. Sun, they've been shooting all day. I'll take them home to rest."

"Alright. I'll go with you," Sun Qing said readily.

"Is that a good idea?" Bai Su pretended to be hesitant. "Mr. Sun, if you come, they won't be able to rest. You know, as a distinguished guest, they can't just sit and chat with you. Why don't you wait until Tang Xin's voice improves and can speak, then you can go and have a good talk?"

Sun Qing's expression darkened.

He pointed at his face and glared at Bai Su, saying, "Bai Su, do you think I look particularly like an idiot?"
