Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Chapter 991: A Gathering of Misfits: ”Do You Believe in Light?”

Xiao He couldnʼt help but look through the crowd towards the direction where Liu Rulan was.

Needless to say, this birthday surprise was definitely orchestrated by Sister Liu, who was probably the one who first came up with the idea.

She is always very thorough and reliable in her work...

Xiao He sighed inwardly, then looked away and learned the reason why Yuan Sitong and Yan Shaohan were sitting together.

”Sister Sitong, didnʼt you say you would never work on Director Yanʼs film crew again in your life? How come you two are working together again on the last project?”

Xiao He looked at the person in front of him with great surprise, and seriously suspected that Yuan Sitong had been replaced.

Hearing Xiao Heʼs words, Yuan Sitong rolled her eyes and said speechlessly, ”Do you think I wanted to? Itʼs all because of that guy Zhuang Hongyi, who said that Director Yan really needs me and that the role canʼt be done without me. My agent was also fanning the flames, and as a result, I accidentally fell into the trap.”

Yan Shaohan belatedly realized: ”Hey, didnʼt Sister Sitong ask me to urge her to update before? I thought you really liked working with me, so the female lead of the crew specifically asked Director Zhuang to choose you that time.”

”So youʼre the culprit! And Zhuang Hongyi too! You made it sound so nice, tricking me into going to the film set to get yelled at—”

Upon hearing Yan Shaohanʼs words, Yuan Sitong immediately exploded, angrily retorting, ”Besides, are we that close? Didnʼt your goddess not join the crew recently? Go find your goddess, why are you looking for me?”

”Because your image is more suitable!”

Yan Shaohan said very seriously, ”Otherwise, I definitely wouldnʼt have come looking for you.”

He then turned to Guo Xinya to express his loyalty: ”Sister Xinya, I have already recommended you to Senior Brother Zhuang. If there are any good roles over there, we will definitely look for you.”

Xiao He: ”...”

Yuan Sitong: ”...”

Yuan Sitong was completely speechless and didnʼt want to talk to this goddess-brained guy anymore: ”Mom, Iʼm getting goosebumps all over. Is there any hope for our production team in the future?”

Guo Xinya was already used to the jokes and noise among young people. She treated everyone equally as juniors she needed to take care of, gently stroking each of them before smilingly soothing both sides.

Seeing this, Xiao Heʼs lips twitched: ”Heh, heh heh, seeing that your relationship is still the same, Iʼm relieved...”

Yan Shaohanʼs mouth will drive Yuan Sitong crazy sooner or later.

Fortunately, Guo Xinya was there this time.

Perhaps because of the heavy filter of Yin Lan, the older sister in ”Yu Ye”, everyone listens to her quite a bit. Even Yuan Sitong only used ”Goddess Guo” as an excuse to criticize Yan Shaohan, and hasnʼt really said anything to Guo Xinya.

Hmm—could this be the correct way to balance the relationship between Sister Gua and Director Yan?

Xiao He fell into deep thought.

At that moment, his trouser hem was carefully tugged.

Xiao He immediately looked down and saw a very cute little radish head.

”Huh? You are—”

Xiao He was stunned for a moment, then immediately looked up and saw Ding Wanyu walking over.

Ding Wanyu is the female lead in ”No Bait”. Although she received many nominations for the film, she ultimately missed the Best Actress award due to the exposed secret marriage incident, which affected her career to some extent.

Fortunately, she maintained a good attitude. After ”No Bait,” director Ning felt very sorry for her situation, so even after retiring, he still helped her find some resources so that she could continue to work in the film industry, and the market feedback was quite good.

”Sister Wanyu.”

Xiao He was surprised to see Ding Wanyu, so he immediately greeted her and picked up her child to weigh him in his hand: ”This child really grows up so fast, he looks different every day. It feels like he was so small last time, and now heʼs already this big.”

”Yes, itʼs been quite a long time since weʼve all seen each other.” Ding Wanyu hasnʼt changed much since the ”No Bait” era, but sheʼs gained a bit more confidence in her gentleness. It seems that the failure of ”No Bait” didnʼt break her, but instead honed her skills. ”It just so happens that his maternal grandmotherʼs family is also in Rong City, so after hearing that it was your birthday, they insisted on coming over to celebrate with you. I hope it wonʼt affect you.”

What does it matter?

Xiao He laughed heartily, ”I should be the one thanking you. Iʼm already very happy that you were willing to come.”

Moreover, seeing old friends from the past successfully move on and have smooth careers is surely a good thing, isnʼt it?

This would make him feel that his help back then had a very good outcome.

Happy birthday, Brother Xiao He!

The childʼs eyes were bright, and his gaze was fixed on what was behind Xiao He. Then he tilted his head slightly, looking puzzled, and asked, ”Where is Brother Xiao Heʼs mechanical arm? Didnʼt it appear today?”

Xiao He: ”...”

Ding Wanyu held her head and suppressed a laugh: ”Iʼm sorry, Iʼve told him many times that youʼre not a Transformer, but ever since he watched your Spring Festival Gala performance and ʼTime Confrontation,ʼ he seems to have misunderstood something.”

This is also why they insisted on attending Xiao Heʼs birthday celebration.

For the child, seeing Xiao He at this moment might be no less than seeing his own Superman idol.

Itʼs comparable to raising a transformation device and shouting ”Believe in the light.”

Xiao He, who inexplicably turned into light: ”...I see, this misunderstanding is quite deep.”

Liu Zehang, who had just walked over and overheard the conversation, burst into laughter, slapping the table: ”Ha, hahaha, Xiao He, itʼs been so long! Has your fan base expanded to include children? Then hurry up and transform! Donʼt leave any regrets for the childrenʼs childhood!”

Xiao He glared at Liu Zehang and rolled up his sleeves: ”Come on, if I could transform, I would take you down as a monster first. For the sake of the childrenʼs childhood, letʼs have a go.”

The audience burst into good-natured laughter. Liu Zehang was heartbroken. He opened his arms and hugged the person he hadnʼt seen in a long time, then said hurtfully, ”Sigh, big stars really do forget their roots. Theyʼre so rude to old friends.”

Xiao He laughed and hugged the other person back, saying smugly, ”Thereʼs nothing I can do, Iʼm just too popular, youʼre no longer in the running.”

”Hahaha--”

-

The birthday party went very well.

The people who came were all familiar with Xiao He, and most of them were young people. They got along well, had fun together, and had pretty good personalities. So they introduced themselves to each other and got to know one another.

Finally, before it ended, Xiao Chen and He Junhao left first.

They both filmed todayʼs videos and are rushing back to edit them.

However, the content of their videos is still quite different.

He Junhaoʼs videos mainly focus on the pre-birthday preparations, such as the process of making Xiao Heʼs birthday cake, and how they came to set up the venue in advance and prepare surprises, while Xiao Chenʼs videos focus on the birthday party itself.

Furthermore, since many of the attendees were actors and celebrities, some were willing to show their faces while others were not, the post-production video content review process would be more complicated. Therefore, it was best for Linghui Entertainment to be in charge.

So when Linghui Entertainment released the birthday vlog, many fans were quite surprised.

Happy Birthday, Xiao He!

【Brother Xiao is 26 already! Time flies. He was just a fair-skinned college student, and now heʼs almost 30.】

【Although there wasnʼt a birthday party this year, which is a bit of a shame, everyone is happy that the movie was such a huge success, so we can only wish Brother Xiao a happy birthday online this year!】

【The prestige of Xiao Heʼs birthday party was still rising the year before last. I never expected that he wouldnʼt hold a birthday party during the two years when he was at the peak of his popularity. I think those who managed to snag tickets back then were incredibly lucky.】

【I regret it so much now. I won a free birthday party ticket in the raffle but didnʼt go because of work. I never imagined that I would have to wait two years for this second birthday party. The fans who missed it back then are crying their eyes out now. I wish there would be a birthday party next year.】

【It seems like two years, but itʼs actually three years. When Xiao Ge turns 27, will we still be able to see each other again? Promise me, we will...】

【Never mind, as long as Brother Xiao is happy, happy birthday.】
