Chapter 174: Chi Pan Xia Yu’s First Off-site Collaboration! Cp Fans Are Shipping Hard
“Wow, this is love.”
In the distance, Sister Shang stopped in her tracks, hands clasped over her chest, shaking her head with a “fell for it” expression.
“Is that really what you think?”
Sister Qianzi leaned against the car door, smoking, her sapphire eyes suspicious.
Why did she feel like Sister Shang was not being entirely sincere?
“Of course, what else?”
Sister Shang strangely glanced at Shi Jinwei, thought for a moment, then said: “Weiwei, sometimes when you think something’s off with others, it’s often you who’s off.”
Shi Jinwei: “?”
“Teacher Chi is now competing with Chu Han Zhou and Peng Chen for the crystal cup. Do you want to help pull votes?”
Sister Qianzi was stunned, incredulous: “You’re saying I should help him pull votes?”
Sister Shang blinked: “You’re not pulling?”
“I wouldn’t help him pull votes even if I was shitting!”
Sister Shang: “……Stop, Sheng Ning is glaring at you.”
Sister Qianzi jumped, turned to look, and sure enough saw Sheng Ning glaring at her… wait, at her?
Why did she feel like this direction…
Following Sheng Ning’s gaze, Shi Jinwei landed on Chi Ye.
“?”
Sister Shang also noticed this, surprised: “What kind of look is that?”
“Yeah, what kind of look is that.”
Sister Shang looked at Shi Jinwei: “You think Sheng Ning is petty too?”
“Sheng Ning is way too generous. Facing Chi Ye’s past freeloading, she didn’t go up and kick him twice?”
Their voices rang out simultaneously, then they both fell silent at the same time.
“……”
……
“Get ready, get ready, gather towards Chicken Feet Zhang. We definitely beat him!”
Rose finally walked onto the red carpet she’d dreamed of.
Amid the host’s passionate voice, the group of 14 split into front and back rows, like Island Troops, marching neatly onto the red carpet stage.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
The media below graciously aimed their cameras over.
Then came an “Oh~.”
It was Rose’s formation that was too bizarre: short Mouse guy Liu Xingye stood in the center, next to him the over-two-meter-tall deputy captain Peng She, their odd pairing instantly drawing everyone’s attention.
And when Liu Xingye saw the camera aimed at him, he was a bit nervous, a bit trembling with excitement.
“Next, let’s welcome Rose boy group to perform their 《Full Firepower》 dance!”
The host’s voice rang out.
The Rose crowd stood in position.
Below, a wave of roasts: Fuck, it’s 《Full Firepower》 again. Hu Ye himself probably never imagined this day.
Also, isn’t this infringing?
“Full Firepower~~!”
BGM started, Rose’s 14 positioned according to rehearsal, then began awkwardly twisting their hips.
Honestly, it was awkward.
In hip twisting, they clearly weren’t talented players. Chicken Feet Zhang alone could crush the entire Rose second-gen group.
Below, Chicken Feet Zhang, who was at the doorway having just started his live broadcast, shook his head upon seeing it: “Not smooth enough.”
“Not enough taste.”
The taste came.
Halfway through, Liu Xingye saw Peng She beside him hadn’t “ejected” yet, got anxious, and frantically eyed him.
Damn it, after rehearsing so long, if not now, when?
The other teammates were also tense, ready to go anytime.
Peng She took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and when “Chi Ye” sang “Full Firepower~ open~ open~,” he suddenly staggered, kicked his right foot hard against his left, trying to launch the dignity +18CM height-increasing shoes.
“?!!”
Huh, why didn’t it fly off?!
Peng She felt the shoe still on his foot, heart sinking.
—Because the size fit perfectly, and too nervous, he “mishapped,” and it didn’t work.
He was about to signal the others, but realized it was bad.
Because after seeing his move, Liu Xingye and the rest instinctively followed rehearsal muscle memory: some covering mouths, some gaping, “shocked” being “shocked,” worried being worried.
“OMG……!”
“The shoe! The shoe flew off!”
“Peng She’s shoe flew to my face!”
“So stinky.”
“Peng She is still outputting!!”
“Uh…”
14 oddballs, 14 different performance styles, each with a second’s worth of scheming, just short of writing “I’m going hot search” on their faces.
But the air around suddenly went quiet. Liu Xingye first noticed Peng She had actually “mishapped” and hadn’t flung the shoe at his face!
So now what…
Liu Xingye looked below stage.
Everyone around was dumbfounded, staring at them.
What are these shorties doing?
Acted too early!! Acted too early!
Liu Xingye’s lips trembled, eyeing Peng She wildly: Fly the damn thing!!
Peng She panicked too, especially under everyone’s gaze, and in tension, flung his shoe hard again.
Whoosh.
This time it flew, but panicked, wrong angle—the stinky shoe flew off the red carpet straight at Peng Chen’s face, who was conveniently next, prepping to go on.
“Fuck!!”
Peng Chen felt his eyes sting, then an unforgettable stench hit his taste buds, so bad he clenched his crotch on the spot and rolled his eyes.
Buddy shit in his shoe?!
“It flew! It flew!”
“It flew to Peng Chen’s face!”
“Stinky stinky mutual appreciation!”
“Someone come, someone come!”
“……”
The red carpet finally reacted, while Rose’s crowd went pale, Peng She scared to actually eject.
No…
I didn’t mean to, bro… we’re family, you’ve always been my idol… I really didn’t mean to!
But whether he meant to or not was unknown; the program team was freaking out.
“Rose get off!”
The chief director was furious: “Fuck, you bums deliberately sabotaging? Security, carry him out! Out!”
Security rushed up, dragging Peng She away.
The crowd was in uproar, the director typing at max speed to edit out Rose.
“If Rose can’t do it, don’t force it! Not even a hair better than Rise!”
“Looking at it, Rise is still ‘good’.”
“Look at Chicken Feet Zhang earlier, so measured. Then Rose—clearly inferior!”
“As expected, second-gen can never reach first-gen heights.”
“LOL, Peng Chen finally got stunk by someone else one day!”
……
“I don’t care if it’s stinky, how dare Yue Na infringe my rights?!”
Chi Ye watched the “farce” end in stunned silence, sincerely sighing at Lao Peng’s stinky fate while messaging Keke: 【Sue it.】
Jin Xia covered her nose. Though they couldn’t smell anything, she still felt her eyes hurt. Hearing this, she cutely yelled at Chi Ye: “Teacher Chi, don’t contact that Peng Chen anymore.”
“Huh? Why?”
The Empress Dowager thought long, then grunted: “He… I’m afraid he’ll pass ‘She smell’ to you.”
Chi Ye: “……Don’t worry, he won’t.”
Lao Peng did have a smell now, and though Mango TV editors went mad with speed, it was a live public event. Soon after, #Peng Chen Peng She# hit the hot search.
Shortly after, probably bros Jiang Yi and Zhang Yu Chu Han Zhou struck again, adding #Peng Chen Ejects# under #Peng Chen Peng She#.
—Next, Peng Chen walked the whole red carpet with a “stinky” face.
After he finished and one big star later, it was finally Chi Ye and Jin Xia’s 《Xing Ni》 duo.
Mango TV really favored Chi Ye.
Normally, with Chi Ye’s star power, he couldn’t follow Peng Chen, but he was with Jin Xia this time, and the Empress Dowager brought Golden Eagle Best Actress + Four Little Flowers star power.
Plus Chi Ye’s honeymoon with Mango and recent popularity explosion, so not only twice, but the later spot super central.
Lingering stink gone, the true “protagonists” arrived.
“Walking towards us now is our ‘old friend’ Chi Ye… and the still beautiful, pretty, and charming Teacher Jin Xia.”
The host quipped, and as Chi Ye and Jin Xia appeared, stage flashes went wild.
“Ka ka” shutters nonstop.
Media below shouted: “Xia Xia! This way! This way!!”
Fans yelled: “So handsome Ye Zi! Ye Zi I love you!”
CP fans ecstatic and teary: “Waited, finally! Pics of Xia Xia and Teacher Chi’s sweetness, buying from 10000 up!!”
Those already in but not seated, and those not yet on, watched complexly—mainly at Chi Ye.
“I remember Screaming Night, he didn’t even qualify to come up.”
“Back then someone laughed he was living off a woman’s earnings. He said: What’re you looking at, never seen living off a woman’s earnings…”
“He actually made it work.”
“Can’t say that… Chi Ye now isn’t the old Chi Ye.”
“……”
Heated discussions, how much jealousy, envy, hate, hostility—only the parties knew.
Chi Ye naturally held Jin Xia’s hand all the way to the end. Chi Ye symbolically signed his name, the standard “Chi” vertical hook elongated artistically.
Then Jin Xia signed hers on the hook of “Chi.”
Cameras caught it, instant screams.
“#Chi Pan Xia Yu# is real!”
“Wuwuwu, my old CP attacking me again. Since 《Jian Ni》, you’re finally together on frame again.”
“Killed me, Xia Xia really loves! Full of little details.”
“Wow.”
Red carpet host “wowed,” shaking head as he stopped them: “No no, you two can’t leave. With that reaction below, if you go, they’ll ‘tear me alive’.”
“Hahaha.”
Laughter below.
Chi Ye and Jin Xia naturally returned, showing explosive acting, no script traces.
Host inwardly praised, smiling: “You two know you have tons of CP fans, right? After so long, together ‘on frame’ again—anything to say to those always supporting CP fans?”
Chi Ye looked at Jin Xia.
Jin Xia blinked, poked him: “You first.”
Chi Ye took the microphone expressionless.
Industry folks in uproar—Jin Xia didn’t care about “star power” at all.
In industry events like this, including name order, it’s all about hierarchy. Chi Ye hot now, but with his star power, Jin Xia should speak first.
Like if Sister Qianzi walked red carpet with Chi Ye, she’d grab the mic unhesitatingly.
But…
Makes sense.
Jin Xia confronted Yue Na for nothing Chi Ye back then—what’s this now?
“Um…”
By now, Chi Ye spoke to CP fans: “Suggest shipping more, I’m shipping it myself.”
“Aaaah!!”
Below went wild.
Empress Dowager took mic: “I’m next to him shipping along.”
“Xia Xia! Xia Xia!!”
“#Chi Pan Xia Yu#!!”
“Xia Xia be happy forever!!”
The venue exploded.
What are they doing?
What are these two doing?!
“Eh, wait, are you shipping?”
Chi Ye puzzledly looked at Jin Xia.
“How haven’t I shipped?”
“Really?”
“Don’t you know if I shipped?”
Jin Xia fired back aggressively.
On-site CP fans numb, never so happy a day.
This Golden Eagle Festival was worth coming!
Next moment, even more “explosive” came.
Host asked Jin Xia, cueing Chi Ye’s hottest topic: “So Xia Xia, do you follow Teacher Chi usually? Can you sing his 《Full Firepower》?”
Jin Xia smiled: “Of course I can…”
Paused, she lifted her snow-white little chin, smiling: “Not only can I sing 《Full Firepower》, but lots more… songs you haven’t heard, couldn’t sing…”
“Oh~!!”
“!!!”
“What’s the situation?!”
Host dumbfounded.
—This line wasn’t rehearsed. What are these two doing?
Official announcement on the spot?
Instinctively, he grabbed the key, drawing out: “Like?!”
“Like…” Jin Xia thought, suddenly smiled: “All OSTs, themes, and inserts from 《Xing Ni》.”
“Ah~?!”
“Whew~”
Crowd whewed, then laughed.
Chi Ye secretly thumbs-upped the Empress Dowager.
Empress Dowager was clueless in business mode—look at this soft ad, way smoother than his hard sell.
“Great, follow 《Xing Ni》, follow Teacher Jin Xia and Chi Ye… Next guests, um… can we cut that ad?”
Amid host and below’s screaming sweetness atmosphere, Chi Ye and Jin Xia exited.
Right behind, Shi Jinwei sourly watched, deciding to stay away from showy couples forever, especially the “male,” utterly hateful!
Viewers and media who’d eaten chaos since red carpet start finally got sweet relief, not going mad with everyone.
Among those not yet on, Sister Shang grinned at it, Chu Han Zhou scoffed disdainfully—unpopular star, just living off a woman’s earnings.
As for Sheng Ning…
She was very angry, inexplicably angry, worse than Shi Jinwei’s “anger.”
Should she slap Chi Ye on the spot later?
She was considering it.
She was looking forward to Jin Xia’s reaction then.
