GTKAWF – Chapter 17.2

Huo Xi, are you on the wrong show? (2)

Everyone in the barrage was shocked. All the people invited were small celebrities… Huo Xi, weren’t you in the wrong show?
Huo Xi and Sheng Qiao? What kind of explosive combination was this?! Just the two names together were gossip headlines! Had the program invited her because of Huo Xi? Hahaha, it was too late to escape now!

Huo Xi’s fans who had just been watching the live broadcast suddenly went crazy:

[Program team? You shouldn’t do that just for the heat, shouldn’t you?]
[I’m going to barge in today! No one can stop me!]
[Is Huo Xi’s studio stupid? Why would they pick this show? Hasn’t he had enough of Sheng Qiao yet?]
[Mmmmm.]
[Sheng Qiao is always around! Why can’t we get rid of her!]
[She has such a thick face.]
[She dares to take naked picture, what face does she have!]
[Previous comment is too much. Sheng Qiao is the victim there.]
[Huo Xi’s fans hate Sheng Qiao and always say everything they want but you should be considerate. You shouldn’t use the naked photos incident to attack Sheng Qiao but it’s true that everything she has done over the years won’t disappear just because she is a victim!]
[I really hope she gets out of the showbiz once her contract is terminated. Don’t come out to harm others!]

In a very short time, the news of Huo Xi participating in {24 hours together} spread all over the internet. His fans who had not been watching the broadcast were both angry and helpless and could only go to the program’s Weibo to attack the team and then to Sheng Qiao’s page to scold her some more. If she dared to be a demon again, she would never live it down!

While the Internet was going crazy, Huo Xi had changed his shoes and walked over. He looked around, a faint smile on his indifferent face and said: “Everyone is there.”
Zhong Shen held on to a shaking Sheng Qiao and leaned close to her ear: “Get it together! Why are you shaking!”

Intentionally or not, all eyes fell on Sheng Qiao. Who did not know about all the scandals she had tied herself up with Huo Xi in the past years? Now that they had to stay together, everybody was wondering how they would get along.
Sensing all the eyes on her, Sheng Qiao wanted to cry.

Zhong Shen broke the somewhat embarrassing atmosphere: “Everybody is there, let’s choose a room. Hurry up, whoever gets a good room can keep it!” He then dragged Sheng Qiao upstairs.

There were five rooms on the second floor, four singles and one double. Zhong Shen was the fastest; he first looked at the two rooms at the entrance and found that one of them had a separate bathroom. He pushed Sheng Qiao in and shouted behind him: “This room is Qiao Qiao’s! No one is allowed to take it!”
Then he quickly opened the next door and stood there: “I want this one, I want to be next to Qiao Qiao!”

Le Xiao found this half funny, half annoying and said: “Someone has to share the double room. You can’t be so overbearing.”
Lu Yihan: “I would like to live there. Will anyone share?” He looked over at Huo Xi, embarrassed: “There is only Brother Huo left, it’s asking too much.”
Huo Xi: “I can.”
He had always been someone that avoided conflict and would usually talk very little. Such a person was actually not very suitable for a variety show because he would never make any scene. But the program team had invited him for his popularity; even if Huo Xi spent the whole day silent, fans would still be happy to watch it.

The audience of the broadcast started scolding Zhong Shen:
[What’s wrong with Zhong Shen?? He is too domineering!]
[The two of them hugged each other just as the show started.]
[Proximity to pitch makes you black!¹ Zhong Shen is as annoying as Sheng Qiao now!]
[Ahhhhhh I’m so angry! Our Huo Xi cannot share his room! Why is our baby so kind?]
[So annoying. I want to rush in and kill Sheng Qiao.]
[Who knows the address of the recording location? I’m going to kill someone!]

Sheng Qiao was aware that Huo Xi had a sleep disorder and was not able to share a room with someone else. He needed an extremely quiet space to fall asleep.
She walked out of the room: “I can also sleep in a double room.”
Lu Yihan smiled: “Sister Xiao Qiao, do you want to sleep with me?”
“You little boy, who do you think will sleep with you!” Zhong Shen knew Sheng Qiao was thinking about Huo Xi and he gave her an angry look. He gave up and said: “Forget it, I will share the room with you and the girls can all take a single.”

At this point, nobody added anything else. Huo Xi took the room with the separate bathroom and the girls took the others while Lu Yihan and Zhong Shen ended up sharing the double room.
Huo Xi’s fans that were currently taking turns attacking Sheng Qiao suddenly became quieter.

After deciding on the living arrangements, everyone began to move their luggage. Sheng Qiao had not taken a lot with her and after putting away everything for the kitchen, she easily lifted her bag upstairs. Unlike her, Le Xiao and Fang Wei had both brought big suitcases and they were too heavy for them.

After Sheng Qiao made her bed, she heard Le Xiao shout from downstairs: “Who can help me and Wei Wei carry our stuff?”
Lu Yihan was in the bathroom and Zhong Shen felt it was too troublesome. After a while, Sheng Qiao heard Huo Xi’s door open. She jumped off the bed and dashed out: “I’m coming!”
Huo Xi who had just opened his door: “…”

Le Xiao was a little embarrassed: “Xiao Qiao, it’s very heavy, let the boys do it.”
How could she do that? Let her idol carry her luggage? Anything else?
Sheng Qiao smiled: “I’m very strong!”
She took the handle and lifted it up. Had she put rocks in it? 
Sheng Qiao’s face was flushed but after much effort, she finally reached the top of the stairs. Le Xiao was very embarrassed when she added: “There is one more.”
Sheng Qiao: “…”

After carrying both suitcases, Sheng Qiao looked at Feng Wei’s a took a deep breath. As she was about to lift it, Feng Wei held it down and said with a smile: “I can do it myself, thank you.”
Okay, she could do it herself then, Sheng Qiao was exhausted.
