Chapter 373 Jiang Bai Gets Off Work
Su Ze also brought over the illuminated sign in the dormitory, which had a red and green alternating scrolling light display.
[Jiang Baizhi Global Fan Club - Shanghai Headquarters]
And, the plaque with the slogan "Angelica, Fly Bravely!" at the freshman welcome party.
"Angelica flies bravely, brother-in-law will always be by your side!"
Su Ze and Gu Dapeng shouted slogans at the top of their lungs while waving their glowing signs wildly.
That setup didn't look like a school sports meet at all.
This is clearly some kind of large-scale cult... no, a large-scale idol worship event.
"Su Ze... Gu Dapeng... thank you both!"
"It's one thing for you to bring these two cards, but why did you have to make my portrait look like an unearthed artifact...?"
"These sons have not only lost their intelligence, but their aesthetic sense has also become so... insane."
Jiang Bai's lips twitched violently.
"This doesn't feel like a charity sale; it feels like they're starting a new sect or organization here!"
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Due to your roommate's doting behavior towards your younger sister, all eyes are on you. Your current main account, 'Jiang Bai,' has officially made it onto the Shanghai Theatre Academy's super red list along with that sign!!]
"Does my reputation even need a secondary account for promotion?"
Jiang Bai murmured those words, his expression gradually shifting from awkwardness to extreme complexity.
"Chief, is it too late for me to apply for a retreat now?"
[Ding! Host, please face reality. Your popularity has surged beyond normal levels. What does this mean? It means this generation of viewers loves this kind of thing!]
Jiang Bai took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the urge to kick Su Ze out of the school gate.
He turned and walked toward the temporary command post of the Literature and Art Department, intending to make one last tactical adjustment in the identity confrontation.
.......
Backstage, Minister Hu He was extremely busy, frantically shouting into a walkie-talkie:
"Speakers! Why isn't that subwoofer on the left side of the speakers working? That's for Bai Zhi, my junior! If it gets damaged, I'll twist your head off and use it as a ball!"
When Hu He turned around and saw Jiang Bai, his face, which was full of anger, instantly switched to a gentle and loving father mode.
"Hey, Jiang Bai! Brother-in-law! You've come to ask about Bai Zhi's performance order, right?"
Hu He grabbed Jiang Bai's hand, his eyes filled with eagerness.
"Don't worry, I've arranged everything for you!"
"I've scheduled Bai Zhi's performance as the grand finale, the very last act!"
"The grand finale of all!"
"This is, after all, where Bai Zhi debuted. I'm going to let all those celebrity seniors know who the true, one and only goddess of the Shanghai Theatre Academy really is!"
Hu He chuckled, his expression saying, "Come praise me!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Bai broke out in a cold sweat that ran down his back and into his groin.
The grand finale?
finally?
"Minister Hu, no! Please don't!"
Jiang Bai quickly waved his hand, his tone firm and leaving no room for negotiation.
"Move my sister... to the middle of Bai Zhi's show, preferably right after the first wave of celebrities has finished performing."
Hu He was stunned:
"Why? This kind of ranking is a privilege only top celebrities in the industry receive. Are you worried that Bai Zhi won't be able to hold her own?"
"Just kidding, there's a god out there with a score of 1995!"
Jiang Bai sighed, activated his acting skills, and put on a long expression that showed both heartache and helplessness:
"Minister Hu, you don't understand."
"My sister is still a junior. Even if she has a reputation, she should still respect her seniors."
"Letting her be the closing act is fine; she's capable enough to hold her own. But what about the upperclassmen who came back to school specifically to raise funds for the school?"
"With so many reporters and paparazzi around, it wouldn't be good if news broke that a popular national goddess was acting like a diva."
"Therefore, she cannot be the last to appear."
"and......."
Jiang Bai leaned closer to Hu He, lowered his voice, and subtly delivered another blow:
"And as you saw, if my sister is placed last on the playground, I'm afraid Bai Zhi will be physically surrounded by these crazy fans when she leaves after dark."
"She has things to do tomorrow, so as her older brother, I have to take her home early."
After listening, Hu He was stunned for two seconds, then became solemn and respectful.
"I understand! Sister Baizhi is so polite and respectful to her elders."
"As expected of my brother-in-law, he's so thoughtful!"
Hu He suddenly slapped his thigh:
"Okay, I'll change it right away! I'll do as you say, brother-in-law, and put it in the middle!"
Goal achieved.
Jiang Bai breathed a sigh of relief, watching Hu He skillfully fill in the flowchart, and the huge weight in his heart finally lifted.
He turned his head and looked towards the school gate, his eyes gradually becoming devilish and profound.
"That's enough, I need to go home."
"Next up is Jiang Baizhi!"
After changing the order of appearance, Jiang Bai crouched down, like a nimble loach, weaving left and right through the bustling crowd on the playground.
As Jiang Bai walked, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of privacy sunglasses worth 100,000 popularity points, putting them on his face.
These sunglasses not only prevent paparazzi from taking pictures, but also cover most of his face, reducing the attention that passersby pay to his identity as his brother-in-law.
Jiang Bai didn't dare go to that old teaching building.
Now people are even squatting on the branches of trees in the school. If he were wearing white stockings in the toilet and some dark-skinned PE student who couldn't hold it in rushed in to borrow toilet paper, that would be a real mess.
"Tongzi, the old place isn't safe anymore, I have to leave the school."
He quickly gave the order in his mind:
"Summon Qin Meng!"
"Tell him to wait at the school gate right now, immediately!"
"By the way, have him book a room at the hotel next door; I need to change there!"
[Ding! Qin Meng is in position. Host, rest assured, as an all-around agent, his speed will be so fast you'll question reality.]
"it is good."
Jiang Bai followed a wild path along the playground fence, avoiding the area where most of the fans gathered, and slipped out of the school gate in a flash.
.......
At the school gate, although it wasn't as crowded as the playground, it was still packed with all sorts of luxury cars.
There are even several Rolls-Royces there, gleaming with the light of money.
Jiang Bai stood by the roadside, pushed up his sunglasses, and looked around.
Where are they?
"With Qin's height of 1.95 meters, wouldn't he look like a street lamp if he stood here?"
"Haven't we arrived yet? Otherwise, why haven't I seen it?"
Jiang Bai looked at his watch, puzzled, and even began to wonder if the system had a bug.
Just as I was about to ask the system.
suddenly.
"Beep—Beep beep!"
A crisp, even slightly upbeat, horn blared suddenly behind him.
Jiang Bai was so startled that he almost jumped up on the spot in the street.
He turned around with a dark expression, ready to hurl a few curses at the clueless driver, but the next second he froze on the spot.
Behind him, a green taxi with faded paint was parked.
The driver's side window slowly rolled down.
Qin Meng's tough face, which exuded a murderous aura even in the darkness of night, was revealed.
The agent, who is 1.95 meters tall and wearing a black suit, is now gripping the worn-out steering wheel of the taxi with both hands, looking solemnly at Jiang Bai.
"Mr. Jiang, is this the car you called, with the license plate ending in 6666?"
Qin Meng's voice was deep and resonant, and his serious expression made him look like a seasoned Didi driver!
Jiang Bai: "???"
