"I seem to have regained some memories, I had a very long, long dream last night, director..."

On the morning of January 8th, after Zhao Qingge got up, she saw this WeChat message from Li Peifeng and thought for a moment, then replied with a question mark and didn’t pay any more attention.

But soon Li Peifeng sent another message, talking about the past experiences in the dream, with a hint of ambiguity.

[Still pretending to have amnesia?]

Zhao Qingge ignored it and instead clicked into a WeChat group named "1", where there were four people, including Huang, Xu, and Wu.

The group was established by Zhao Qingge yesterday, with the purpose of the four of them supervising each other, forming a united front, reminding each other not to take the initiative to contact Li Peifeng.

And when Li Peifeng actively sought them out, that’s when the group chat became lively!

Zhao Qingge directly posted the chat screenshot in the group and then said, "Li Peifeng sent me a message."

Huang Tianxuan: "He just sent me one too, I didn’t reply at all."

Xu Manning: "It’s the same lines, something like he regained some memories, not much... Now I can basically confirm, he’s just acting!!!"

Wu Wenyue: "Then let him continue his one-man show."

After replying, Wu Wenyue ignored the "1" group discussion and instead used her phone to open a WeChat group named "2".

Unlike "1", this group only had three people: her, Xu Manning, and Huang Tianxuan.

This group was secretly set up by Wu Wenyue behind Zhao Qingge’s back, and it was created an hour after the "1" group was established!

Four people, two group chats, which is quite common for girls, even a bit on the low side...

Wu Wenyue: "(smile) That bastard first messaged his director this morning."

Xu Manning: "(angry) I was actually the second one!!"

Huang Tianxuan: "Observing so carefully, did you see the timestamp in the chat history? But if I tell you that Zhao Qingge and I both received the message at 7:55, you won’t get angry, right?"

Xu Manning: "Kick her out! Yueyue, quickly kick her out!!"

Wu Wenyue: "Stop it, we need at least three people for a group chat, if we kick one out the group will dissolve."

Xu Manning: "@Huang Tianxuan, send me the screenshot of the message he sent you."

Huang Tianxuan: "If you’re looking for trouble, I can send it."

Xu Manning: "No, need, at all!"

Huang Tianxuan: "Actually, the sending time of the messages doesn’t prove anything. The main thing is, looking at the message content and text expression, Li Peifeng does seem to favor Old Zhao somewhat."

Xu Manning: "(crying) I really want to call and scold him to death."

Wu Wenyue: "It’s only been a few days? Wait, wait for the real outcome. Focus on work, don’t think about anything else."

Though the four girls created two groups, seemingly not very united, a bit divided, their overall goal remained unanimous for now: resolutely not taking the initiative to contact Li Peifeng until he can compromise and make a choice among the four!

And Li Peifeng seemed to have no good way to deal with it and could only continue his Endpoint annual meeting trip in Shanghai.

"These two buses are ours, all you esteemed guests, please get on the bus."

On the morning of the 8th, not long after breakfast, staff led a group of writers to the venue for the gala to rehearse.

Mercedes-Benz Cultural Center, a large indoor venue with 18,000 seats, resembling a flying saucer in shape, has been one of the landmark buildings of Shanghai since its establishment ten years ago. Not only have many singers and celebrities held concerts here, but it has also hosted some world-class electronic sports and sports events.

"Everyone listen to me, on the day the gala officially starts, you will walk the right side of the red carpet from the entry just now, remember it’s the right side, the left side is reserved for celebrities and directors. Then we sign our pen name at the end of the red carpet, turn right to go to the front row audience seats to wait, every chair has your real name on it, and when it’s your turn to be on stage, there will be on-site staff to guide you..."

"Once those singers and celebrities finish rehearsing, I’ll take everyone to the stage to get familiar with the positions. Those who need to go on stage to receive awards can practice speaking with a microphone in the venue in advance."

"Okay."

"Understood."

The responses were sparse, the crowd didn’t take the rehearsal seriously, after all, they didn’t have to sing or perform, just a little familiarization with the process, knowing where to stand when getting on stage would suffice.

Some writers who attended the last gala were more adept, didn’t even listen to the staff’s explanation, and sneaked around to the backstage to watch the celebrities rehearsing on stage up close.

"And now everyone can move freely within the venue, you can go to the stage and see where your audience seat is below." The staff looked at their watch and said, "Let’s meet back here in one and a half hours."

As soon as these words fell, the crowd dispersed, most went to the front stage, talking about the gala along the way.

"Did you see the program list? The line-up of celebrities this time is much stronger than before."

"Indeed."

"Hey, where did you see the list?"

"WeChat group."

"Let me take a look... Ning Hao, Huang Bai, Liu Haoran, Pan Yueming, Yang Mi, Dili Ruoba, Gao Yuanyuan, Deng Ziqi, Song Zhi, Cheng Xiao... I choose Gao Yuanyuan!!!"

"You get to choose? Who let you choose?!"

"Can’t I choose to take a photo with her?"

"That’s possible! But Yuanyuan is a bit older now, a beauty past her prime, and Guli Nazha is also here, she’s younger, so... I choose Nazha!"

While the others teased each other about the celebrities on stage, Li Peifeng was observing the seats in the VIP section below the stage, looking for his spot.
