Chapter 641 Daily Life 40
The two chatted casually along the way, occasionally discussing which areas of Xizhou were worth visiting.
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the back entrance of the recording venue for "Voice of the West".
Those who enter from here are either staff members or distinguished guests who do not wish to appear on camera.
To prevent fans from sneaking backstage, several security personnel are on duty here.
Chang Yun opened the back door: "How about I call that assistant first, and then you can get out?"
"No, there's not much of a person around, I'd better get off first."
Lu Wantang shook her head and looked around again.
Chang Yun agreed, "Okay... There is a bit of an odor in the car today. The air purifier seems to be malfunctioning. I'll arrange for someone to come and fix it later."
Before he finished speaking, a tall and burly man emerged from the VIP entrance.
The man was over 1.9 meters tall, and even though he was wearing a suit, you could tell that he must have a lot of muscles underneath, which was really eye-catching.
Lu Wantang turned her head to look over, about to ask if this was a bodyguard from the venue or some artist.
Chang Yun walked over with a smile, extending his hand as if they were very familiar.
"I never expected to see you here, Siphas."
"Are you just passing by, or did you come all the way to pick me up? If it's the latter, I'll be very happy."
It must be said that Chang Yun's communication skills are also top-notch, as a special assistant.
It hasn't been long, but when I talk to people from the West, my tone and manner of speaking are no different from those of the locals!
The tall man named Siphas shook hands with him and joked:
"Unfortunately, it's neither the former nor the latter."
“If I were just here to pick someone up on my own behalf, I would definitely be here specifically to pick you up. In fact, I came here specifically to pick up Ms. Lu at Mr. Richard’s request.”
As he spoke, he looked at Lu Wantang and made an inviting gesture:
"Ms. Lu, please come with me."
Lu Wantang nodded slightly and walked ahead of the two.
Sifas remained half a step behind.
Chang Yun followed up, "It seems Mr. Richard values my boss a lot?"
“Of course.” Sifas ignored his probing attitude and said bluntly, “Mr. Richard greatly admires Ms. Lu’s talent and has said many times that Ms. Lu is our honored guest and we must not neglect her.”
Although Sifas looks like a burly bodyguard, he is actually insightful and meticulous.
Chang Yun wouldn't say he understood the other person very well, but he knew what he meant by those words.
"It seems our collaboration will go very smoothly." He was relieved, and his smile became much more genuine.
Sifas was taken aback for a moment, glanced at Lu Wantang, and seeing that she didn't seem to care about their whispered conversation, he covered his mouth with his hand and muttered softly:
"Hey! You're not Ms. Lu's father, are you?"
Chang Yun: “…”
Upon hearing this, the expression on his face froze.
A few seconds later he realized: "Sifas, there's a saying in the Eastern Continent: You can eat anything, but you can't say anything."
"Okay, okay." Sifas quickly apologized. "I'm so sorry, it's just that your expression just now... um, it really reminded me of how a father looks at his daughter, so loving?"
“No.” Chang Yun said firmly, “You’re overthinking it. Maybe it’s because I’m older that I have this misconception.”
Sifas smiled, as if he understood everything without saying a word, "I understand, I won't overthink it."
Chang Yun: “…”
If he were to tone down the knowing smile on his face, he might have a little more credibility.
Lu Wantang, who was walking ahead, couldn't hear the conversation between the two, but she was happy to see Chang Yun befriending the other party, so she wasn't unhappy at all. She only stopped and looked back at Sifas when they reached the fork in the road.
The latter immediately pointed out the way, saying, "Sir may be a little busy right now, I hope Ms. Lu won't mind."
"It's okay, tonight's show is more important."
Lu Wantang spoke sincerely, without any hint of sarcasm or sarcasm.
Relieved, Sifas quietly remarked to Chang Yun, "She's such a sweetheart! No wonder you're so protective of her!"
Chang Yun immediately became wary: "Don't get too close to her!"
Sifas laughed, winked, and said, "Don't worry! I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to say that I really hope my future daughter will be such a sweetheart."
Chang Yun's lips twitched: "I already said I'm not—"
"Okay! I understand, I get it!"
After saying that, regardless of Chang Yun's reaction, Sifas had already taken Lu Wantang to the control room of the studio.
The blond, green-eyed youth was wearing headphones and sitting in front of a dazzling array of screens, with a small walkie-talkie in his hand.
Sifas stepped forward and greeted her: "Ms. Lu has arrived."
The young man didn't reply, but said into the walkie-talkie, "Rehearsal is paused. Remember what I just said."
He stood up and his first glance fell on Lu Wantang, who was standing in the direction of the door.
With snow-white skin and black hair, her features were exquisite, and her eyes were calm and serene, like the moon reflected in a deep pool, quiet yet captivating.
Richard was stunned for a moment.
His emerald-like eyes also made Lu Wantang's gaze linger for a moment longer.
Seeing that the other party remained silent for a long time, she had no choice but to break the silence first, "Hello, I am Lu Wantang."
Richard's response was delayed by half a second: "Hello."
He only came to his senses after saying hello.
"I'm sorry, I was a little distracted just now... because you are so beautiful, I think the director who makes a film about some kind of mythology from the West should consider inviting you to play Aphrodite."
Lu Wantang had long known that Earth also had Greek mythology.
She smiled and said, "I'm not good at acting."
Richard said, half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Maybe you just need to stand there and you don't need any acting skills at all?"
Lu Wantang didn't take it seriously. "That's up to the director. I think your priority is tonight's show."
“Okay.” Richard said helplessly, “Work just doesn’t inspire me much.”
The two sat down one after the other.
Richard then gave Lu Wantang a briefing on the stage setup and the various camera positions in front of the stage.
Finally, they didn't forget their original intention and extended an invitation:
"Tang, are you really not going to consider coming on stage and performing? I think a lot of people would be excited!"
Lu Wantang shook her head: "I have no intention of going on stage."
“That’s a real shame,” Richard said with regret. “I’ve seen a few of your shows, and you’re really suited to being in the spotlight. If you wanted to, you could become a sensation in West Asia very quickly.”
"I really don't understand why you prefer behind-the-scenes work."
Richard looked puzzled.
Fortunately, he didn't insist and even personally escorted Lu Wantang to the VIP room.
With him as the director, Lu Wantang's striking appearance as someone from another continent attracted a lot of attention, but no one came forward to bother her.
