Variety Show

Ning Wei raised her head, noticing that the car had almost reached the company.

From a distance, she could see Fu Ming Shi standing in front of the entrance, looking very anxious. Once in a while, Fu Ming Shi would glance at his phone.

Ning Wei knew well that Fu Ming Shi was waiting for her. She told him earlier that she would show up on time, but she did not expect to be delayed because of her bike.

"Just pull over the car at the side." Ning Wei said. "I'll walk over."

"Here?" Assistant Xiao Jin asked. He looked through the rear mirror and met his boss's eyes.

"Just do what he said." Feng An Yu said. With Ning Wei's identity, Feng An Yu understood that the young man did not want to attract unnecessary rumors. 

The car stopped on the side road.

Ning Wei pushed the door and paused briefly before turning to Feng An Yu. "Mr. Feng. Thank you for today."

Feng An Yu nodded. "You are welcome. Please feel free to reach out to me if you encounter any trouble. You have my card."

Ning Wei smiled. She had long decided that she would not trouble Feng An Yu again.

The workshop had already given her special treatment just because Feng An Yu had introduced her. Ning Wei did not think that the boss would try to cheat her.

She did not think that there would be a reason to find Feng An Yu again.

With those thoughts in mind, Ning Wei stepped out of the vehicle and walked away.

Feng An Yu watched Ning Wei's figure in silence. His eyes narrowed slightly, noticing that Ning Wei did not look back once.

"Mr. Feng?"

Assistant Xiao Jin's voice snapped Feng An Yu out of his thoughts. He met the assistant's eyes through the rear mirror and spoke, "Drive."

The car drove past the company.

Feng An Yu looked out the window and saw Ning Wei talking to his manager. He finally retracted his gaze once the car was farther away.

His thoughts dwelt on his meeting with Ning Wei. 

Growing up, Feng An Yu was accustomed to meeting people who wanted something in return from him. Some people would try to befriend him for their benefit. This was the first time he met someone who did not want anything from him. 

Ning Wei… that young man had rejected his offer to help. He did not wish for anything after helping him that night.

He thought that Ning Wei was an interesting person.

Feng An Yu wondered if he would run into Ning Wei again.

…

"Where did you come from?" Fu Ming Shi asked when he saw Ning Wei walking over. "Why are you walking? Where's your bike?"

Ning Wei heaved a long sigh. "Still in the workshop."

"Didn't you say that you are going to get your bike today? Why is it still in the workshop?"

"The workshop can't repair my bike," Ning Wei said. "I have to find another workshop to get it repaired."

Fu Ming Shi frowned. "I told you to get a new one, but you would not listen."

Ning Wei chuckled. "Brother Fu, you know that I am very loyal."

Fu Ming Shi scoffed, seeing the hint of teasing in Ning Wei's smile. "Let's go in." He decided to change the subject. "Everyone is waiting for us inside."

As they walked into the building, Ning Wei finally took off her mask.

A few employees did a double-take whenever they saw Ning Wei.

As the employees of an entertainment company, they were used to seeing a celebrity walking around the building. But the smile on Ning Wei's face always fascinated them.

"Wei Wei."

Ning Wei looked up and saw Wu Lian Jie waving his hand at her. 

"Come. Sit with me." Wu Lian Jie patted a spot next to him.

Ning Wei swept her eyes around the room and saw that the rest of the DAWN members were waiting for her. "Sorry for the delay. Something happened."

"It's alright." Ai Lun waved his hand. "The meeting hasn't started. How was your bike?"

Ning Wei chuckled.

Her group members knew that she loved her bike very much. 

Ning Wei would ride her bike anywhere and take good care of it.

Noticing that she was not travelling around on her bike these days got the members curious. Ning Wei had told them that her bike was in the workshop. But the members thought that the problem was minor.

"Still in the workshop." Ning Wei walked over and sat next to Wu Lian Jie. "There are still a few more problems."

"That serious?" Wu Lian Jie placed his arms around Ning Wei's shoulder, but was quickly pushed away. The warning gaze in Ning Wei's eyes made him cough.

Ning Wei had told him that she did not like being too close, and Wu Lian Jie seemed to have a problem remembering them.

"My bike is an old model," Ning Wei said. "Finding some spare parts can be quite troublesome."

"Should I give you a ride back after this?" Ding Chuan asked.

"I can give you a ride home," Wu Lian Jie offered.

"It's alright. Brother Fu said he'll send me home."

"Alright." Fu Ming Shi clapped his hands twice to get everyone's attention. "Now that everyone is here, let's begin the meeting." He sat across the members and pulled out a few documents from his backpack. "You guys remember the variety show I mentioned? This is the contract. You guys will be appearing on the show as guests. Take a look at the contract first."

The boys eagerly reached for the contract.

After their debut, the company sent them to classes to improve their singing and dancing. The company wanted them to make their name in singing before they would be given a chance to try another field. Therefore, the opportunity to appear on a variety show was rare.

"Brother Fu, what kind of show is this?" Wu Lian Jie asked.

"You can't read?" Ding Chuan scoffed.

"You want us to head to the mountain and work?" Wu Lian Jie frowned. The thought of him doing manual labor made him shiver.

"I think this type of show is getting popular these days."

"But the mountain…" Wu Lian Jie did not look happy. He would rather spend his time in the studio practicing.

"I think it's pretty good." Ning Wei smiled. "The air will be refreshing."

Fu Ming Shi sighed. "Whether you liked it or not, everyone is going to show up on this show. The producer especially asked you guys to appear on the show, and our boss agreed. Nothing you say or do can change anything."
