Chapter 1404: Su Manman didn’t run in vain.
She had no idea what Shi Hanchu was thinking when he decided to go on this variety show, knowing he would have to enter a haunted house. Wasn’t he worried about destroying his cool character image?
“So, will you go?” asked Tu Jie.
Of course, she would go. If she didn’t, what would happen to Shi Hanchu?
Shi Hanchu had a perfect image in front of his fans. How could such a perfect person show his fearful side to his fans?
Su Manman nodded. “I’ll go!”
Su Manman’s promise was within Tu Jie’s expectations. He nodded. “Okay then, I’ll get God Shi to take care of you!”
Su Manman didn’t say a word. The final outcome should be the other way around. It would be her taking care of Shi Hanchu.
Tu Jie, who felt that he had helped matchmake Shi Hanchu, smiled even deeper. He felt that proud of himself.
He was doing his best and was full of anticipation of how the relationship between Su Manman and Shi Hanchu would develop.
“Since you’ve agreed, I’ll tell the production crew that you have another filming schedule next Wednesday, so you can fly straight to Japan after filming on Tuesday. I’ll communicate with the director beforehand and get someone to pick you up there, okay?” Tu Jie discussed it with Su Manman.
Su Manman nodded. “Okay…”
Tuesday came soon enough. Su Manman packed up a few large pieces of luggage and got someone to send them to the airport. Having been informed about her other schedule, the director released her early from the filming of “The Olden Days” that day.
Thinking about how she would be meeting Shi Hanchu in just a few hours, Su Manman felt her heart lurch.
After a few hours of flight, Su Manman arrived in Japan. It was already evening time…
The crew of “The Battle at the House of Horrors” had sent a few people to pick Su Manman up. They held up a sign and waited for Su Manman at the arrival gate. They had been waiting for a while with no sign of Su Manman, so they decided to call her assistant to ask what was going on.
Just as the call went through, Su Manman’s assistant and makeup artist emerged from the door, pushing out a lot of luggage.
The crew of the variety show, who came to pick Su Manman up, were stunned. They would only be there for a day, so why were there so many suitcases?
Seeing the petite lady wearing a sportswear and a tweed cap and a mask, Su Manman’s assistant, who was holding a bag and answering the production crew’s call, hurriedly walked forward.
“Sorry, sorry. My stomach isn’t feeling well, so Sister Manman had to wait for me to go to the toilet after getting off the plane! That’s why we’re late.” The assistant apologized to the staff on the phone.
Humans had their physiological needs. Who could control the case of having a tummy ache? The staff member from the production crew frowned and said, “I’m fine, but God Shi is still waiting in the car!”
Upon hearing this, Su Manman’s assistant’s face turned green. She hurriedly said to Su Manman, “Manman, God Shi is also in the car…”
Upon hearing this, Su Manman paused in her steps before striding off while pulling her assistant’s hand…
“No… I’m sorry! We’ll be right there!” The assistant couldn’t finish her sentence. She hung up the call after shouting those few words.
Su Manman’s eyes were sharp. She knew where to go upon seeing the words “The Battle at the House of Horrors.” She immediately dragged her assistant over. The makeup artist and three other assistants behind her pushed their luggage carts and chased after her.
“Sorry, I’m late…”
Su Manman had dragged her assistant to run for so long that the assistant was panting heavily. However, Su Manman still seemed unfazed. Her face didn’t even turn red.
All the running that she did during her two years of losing weight was not in vain.
All the people coming in their direction were wearing caps and masks, so the staff couldn’t see Su Manman’s face. They only smiled and proceeded to lead Su Manman to the parking lot…
It was raining heavily when they came out of the airport hall. The glows from the streetlights were surrounded by a thin layer of fog, turning them into a fuzzy halo.
Su Manman’s heart was beating especially fast as she was about to board the car prepared by the crew. She hadn’t put on makeup today, and she was supposed to remove her mask after getting into the car!
However, Su Manman was very confident in her bare face. After all, she was a person who put importance on her appearance and would never allow anything to go wrong with it.
Still, it would be better if she could look at herself in the mirror before she got into the car to confirm that she looked fine…
The car door opened. Su Manman took a deep breath before removing her mask and getting into the car.
But why wasn’t Shi Hanchu in the car?
Su Manman turned to look at the staff member who had led her onto the car and asked, “Didn’t you say that God Shi is in the car?”
Under the fuzzy streetlights, Su Manman had removed her cap and mask and only tied her hair into a ponytail… This time, her eyes were filled with astonishment.
After being stunned by her beauty for a moment, the staff member immediately snapped out of her daze and pointed at the car in front of Su Manman. “God Shi is in there…”
The car in front!
Su Manman was a little disappointed, but it was only right!
All the guests who were invited to the show in Japan had their own staff. Why would they all sit in the same car?
Besides, since they were going to stay at the same hotel together, she would definitely have the opportunity to meet Shi Hanchu later. She should use this time to apply a facial mask and put on some light makeup. It was just right for her to meet Shi Hanchu at the hotel.
Su Manman got into the car and adjusted her seat before putting on a mask and resting with her earphones on.
They drove all the way to the hotel. By the time Su Manman got out of the car, she was already freshened up and looked stunningly beautiful.
As she got out of the car at the entrance of the hotel, she attracted many gazes.
Shi Hanchu’s fans probably received the news in advance and knew that Shi Hanchu would be staying in this hotel. They had long been guarding the entrance of the hotel, wearing a raincoat and holding Shi Hanchu’s banner in their hands.
Upon seeing Shi Hanchu get out of the car, the fans couldn’t help but scream and shout Shi Hanchu’s name. Some of them even cried out in excitement.
Su Manman had thought that she would have a chance to talk to Shi Hanchu today, but it was apparent that Shi Hanchu was standing cordially in front of his fans, asking them about their well-being. It wasn’t appropriate for her to go over and greet Shi Hanchu. She could only take a deep look at Shi Hanchu before going into the hotel to check in with her assistant.
On the way to the room, Su Manman clearly wasn’t in a good mood!
The makeup artist, Yang Weiyi, wasn’t clear about the situation. She thought that Su Manman was jealous that Shi Hanchu had some fans waiting for him, so she smiled and said, “I have a feeling that in the future, Manman’s fans will definitely wait for Manman at the entrance of a hotel like this. In the future, Manman must be like God Shi and be gentler to your fans! Your fans wouldn’t be as tough as us!”
“You mean I’m not good to you?” Su Manman asked.
Yang Weiyi hurriedly said, “Of course not! In the entire industry, you’re the only one who gives us a high salary, and you even give us a big red packet after the festival. Where can we find such a good boss? I’m just trying to suck up to you, lest I get abandoned by you!”
“Cut the crap!” Su Manman smiled.
Yang Weiyi used to be Jiang Mingzhu’s personal makeup artist, but after Jiang Mingzhu passed away, Yang Weiyi no longer had the mood to follow other celebrities. After a year of battling depression, she followed Director Pang and became the makeup artist for his production crew.
