Chapter 53: Whether You Believe It or Not

~10 min read 1,894 words

Lin Fei smiled slightly and said, "We might see each other often starting tomorrow." Tomorrow, Lin Fei will discuss the show "Kangxi Coming" with Wang Weizhong. As the host, Xiao S naturally needs to meet with Lin Fei, the planner. Thinking back to when Xiao S hosted "Kangxi Coming," in 2011 she mentioned Li Ao on air, which led to Li Ao threatening to sue her. Later, Xiao S invited Li Ao onto the show to apologize. Despite this, Lin Fei still isn't particularly fond of Xiao S.

While Lin Fei was thinking about this, Xiao S seemed strange—she had never met him before, so why would they meet again tomorrow?

"Lin Fei, why are we meeting tomorrow? What do you do for work?" Xiao S asked, grabbing his sleeve.

"Yeah, Lin Fei, we're all curious—can you tell us?" Wu Zongxian said.

Seeing everyone's attention, Lin Fei spoke up: "Hey, Brother Zongxian, let me tell you—I'm actually also in the entertainment industry. Tomorrow, Xiao S will host a new show called 'Kangxi Coming,' so from now on, we'll be colleagues."

"What? You're our colleague? And tomorrow I can be the host? You're not lying to me, are you?" Xiao S asked skeptically.

Lin Fei clapped his hands and said, "Why would I lie to you? Seriously, tomorrow you'll find out if I'm telling the truth. Are we almost there for drinks?"

Wu Zongxian replied, "You'll see when we get there—let's just chat properly for a bit."

Lin Fei said, "Of course. In the future, I'll still need Brother Zongxian and all the lovely ladies' help—who knows?"

In the private room of the bar, Lin Fei took a sip of beer. Wu Zongxian sat beside him and said, "Xiao Fei, you just said on the road that you're our colleague, but I've never seen you before."

"I start work tomorrow—I've planned an entertainment show in collaboration with the TV station. Brother Zongxian, you naturally wouldn't have met me yet," Lin Fei said with a faint smile.

Wu Zongxian stared at Lin Fei in astonishment, thinking: "You can't judge a person by appearance, nor measure the sea with a bucket. Today's young people are so impressive—I feel old." He reflected inwardly.

Seeing Wu Zongxian's expression, Lin Fei understood the reason—after all, he had been reborn. Of course, as someone planning an entertainment show, he knew that others who were reborn often became extraordinary: some became singers, others Oscar-winning directors, and so on—becoming wealthy or powerful, surrounded by many women. Rebirth, naturally, was like having a golden finger.

Lin Fei patted Wu Zongxian's shoulder and said, "Brother Zongxian, I have an idea—do you want to hear it?"

Wu Zongxian, a little curious, said, "What's the idea? Say it out loud so everyone can hear." Actually, I want to become a world-class star—I need your help," Lin Fei said.

Wu Zongxian furrowed his brow, thought for a moment, and said, "That little Fei, although you can sing, you're somewhat handsome, somewhat talented, it takes great effort to become a world-class star successfully. You should know that in the United States' Hollywood, there aren't many Chinese who have succeeded and gained worldwide recognition."

"Xiao Fei, in 'Guess Guess Guess,' I heard your fairy tale—it was really nice. Did you write it yourself? And will I really become a host?" Xiao S asked, doubting that a 20-year-old man could compose songs.

"Xiao Fei, in my I Guess Guess Guess, I listened to your fairy tale and found it very pleasant to hear. Is it your own creation? Also, will I really become a host?" Xiao S asked, not quite believing a 20-year-old man could compose songs.

"Of course it's my creation. Do you think I'm deceiving you? Have you heard fairy tales elsewhere?" Lin Fei apologized to Guangliang in his heart, saying the fairy tale was his own.

Lin Fei waved his hand and said, "That you becoming a host? Maybe there's a chance. The show is called 'Kangxi Coming.' You can only do it if you get Brother Wang Weizhong's approval tomorrow."

Lin Fei waved his hand and said, "If you become the host, there might be an opportunity. The show's name is 'Kangxi Comes,' and you can only proceed if you gain the approval of Big Brother Wang Weizhong tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Xiao S felt relieved in her heart and expressed gratitude to Lin Fei, saying that if she became the host of 'Kangxi Comes,' she would be Lin Fei's buddy.

"Xiao S, you should thank not only Lin Fei but also me—you owe me big time, because I found Lin Fei," Ya Ya said, blinking her eyes.

"Why should I thank you? If you hadn't found Lin Fei, I'd still be the host of 'Kangxi Coming,' right? Am I wrong, Xiao Fei?" Xiao S turned to Ya Ya, smirked, and looked at Lin Fei.

"Xiao S, you're wrong—you should thank Ya Ya. Otherwise, we wouldn't have met today. To celebrate our meeting, let's sing," Lin Fei suggested.

"Xiao S, what you said is wrong. You should be thanking Ya Ya; otherwise, we wouldn't have met today. To celebrate our meeting, let's sing." Lin Fei proposed.

Everyone present were people from the Entertainment Industry, so of course they would sing. After hearing the fairy tale today, they demanded Lin Fei sing it.

Xiao S clapped hard and shouted, "Great song!" Wu Zongxian sang a song—Liu Dehua's "Forgetful Water."

Lin Fei thought it was pretty good. As a Taiwan show host and female celebrity, the other four women each sang a song.

"Everyone sang—it was great. I just thought of another song I just wrote, called 'Fly Higher.' Please enjoy it." After Lin Fei finished speaking, he began singing "Fly Higher."

"Everyone sang the songs, very well. I suddenly remembered another song I just composed, titled 'Fei De Gao Gao.' Please enjoy it." After Lin Fei finished speaking, he began to sing 'Fei De Gao Gao.'

'Fei De Gao Gao' is a song by Wang Feng. Lin Fei held the microphone and sang loudly, "Life is like a great river —, flying higher."

————————————————Divider Line————————————————————

After hearing "Fly Higher," Wu Zongxian's opinion of Lin Fei rose even higher—one fairy tale was nice, one "Fly Higher" was also decent. A 20-year-old man with songwriting talent, ambition, who writes lyrics, composes music, and plans entertainment segments—Wu Zongxian knows Wang Weizhong's abilities, and since he approved Lin Fei's proposal for "Kangxi Coming," it means the show should succeed.

After hearing 'Fei De Gao Gao,' Wu Zongxian's opinion of Lin Fei improved even more in his heart. One fairy tale was not bad, one 'Fei De Gao Gao' was also acceptable. A 20-year-old man with creative talent, fighting spirit, writing lyrics, composing music, and planning entertainment segments. Wu Zongxian knew Wang Weizhong's abilities, and since he approved Lin Fei's 'Kangxi Comes' plan document, it indicated that 'Kangxi Comes' should succeed.

Now Wu Zongxian greatly appreciated Lin Fei. An idea arose in his heart: to sign Lin Fei to Alpha Peiyang as a singer.

Lin Fei had just sat down on the sofa to rest when Wu Peici sat beside him, staring at him.

Being looked at by a beautiful woman made Lin Fei a little shy. He and Wu Peici weren't that familiar, and he didn't think he had the charm to make a beautiful woman approach him first.

Being looked at by a beautiful woman made Lin Fei somewhat embarrassed. He himself was not very familiar with Wu Peici, and he did not believe he had charm enough to make a beautiful woman approach him proactively.

"Lin Fei, I'm curious—on 'Guess Guess Guess,' you said you had a girlfriend and were preparing to marry. Was that true?" Wu Peici blinked and asked.

On the show "Guess Guess Guess," Lin Fei had said he and his girlfriend were preparing to marry, but then she died. He sang the fairy tale with deep emotion, which moved Wu Peici deeply—and also made her curious.

In my I Guess Guess Guess program, Lin Fei mentioned that he and his girlfriend were preparing to marry, then his girlfriend died. Lin Fei sang the fairy tale with deep emotion, moving Wu Peici greatly, and she also felt a little curious.

When a woman becomes curious about a man's affairs, it signifies that interesting things will happen. For example —

Everyone's gaze turned toward him like sheep entering a tiger's mouth. Lin Fei coughed and said, "You all want to know, right?"

Everyone's gaze turned toward the scene of a sheep entering a tiger's mouth. Lin Fei coughed and said, "You all want to know, is it so?"

Lin Fei used Stephen Chow's funny voice, laughing as he said, "Whether you believe me or not, I believe it myself. Hahaha."

Lin Fei spoke in Stephen Chow's comedic voice, laughing and saying, "Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway. Hahaha."

"Brother Zongxian, why did you spray beer on my face? Seriously." Da S wiped her face with a tissue.

"Sorry, Da S—Xiao Fei was just too funny, I couldn't hold back." Wu Zongxian apologized to Da S, spreading his hands.

Xiao Fei's expression made Ya Ya feel a bit heartbroken. She patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be like this—you said you had nothing going on, right? Tell us so you can feel better."

Ya Ya handed Lin Fei a tissue. He wiped his eyes and said, "Thanks. Actually, you already know—no big deal. I'm happy to have met you all today. Brother Zongxian, you're being a bit exaggerated, aren't you? Actually, in 'Guess Guess Guess,' I was lying."

Ya Ya took out a handkerchief and gave it to Lin Fei. Lin Fei wiped his eyes and said, "Thank you. Actually, you already know. It's fine. I'm happy to have met you all today. Brother Zongxian, you're exaggerating too much. Actually, in my I Guess Guess Guess, I was deceiving people."

Wu Zongxian, Wu Peici, and Xiao S all looked doubtful. "Really? You were lying? You said you were preparing to marry that girl, but then she ran off with a rich guy and dumped you. Why do you all know this?"

Lin Fei said angrily, "Because she'd rather cry in a BMW than laugh on the back of a bicycle. I'm an orphan. To marry her, I gave up my life in the U. S. —but she coldly dumped me. That's why I lied."

Lin Fei said angrily, "Because she would rather sit in a BMW car crying than sit behind a bicycle laughing. I am an orphan. To marry her, I gave up my life in the United States, but she heartlessly abandoned me, so that's why I deceived people."

Lin Fei took a sip of beer and said, "Thanks for your concern—I'm fine. Let's all have a drink together. It's about time—tomorrow we still have to work."

Lin Fei took a sip of beer and said, "Thank you for your concern. I'm fine. Let's all have a drink at the bar. It's almost time. Tomorrow I still have to go to work."

Lin Fei said 88 to his past life. His life now begins from this moment, isn't it? Yes, life has just begun.

Lin Fei, Wu Zongxian, Wu Peici, A Ya, Da S, and Xiao S clinked their wine glasses.
