Chapter 739: Chapter 757 Refusal (2)
"Oh right, right, I remember now!"
"I finally remembered whose voice this is!"
The next moment, she immediately turned around and ran towards Lin Xi and Luo Susu.
After running in front of them, she stopped and asked with a look of surprise,
"You’re Lin Xi, right?"
Lin Xi nodded and replied, "Didn’t I just tell you?"
Hearing this, the assistant girl couldn’t help but look a little embarrassed, but she quickly regained her composure and apologized,
"I’m sorry, I’m really sorry!"
"There were too many people just now, so I didn’t recognize you!"
Lin Xi didn’t dwell on the matter any further and curiously asked, "Who are you, and what do you want with me?"
"I need to quickly go back to sleep!"
After a bit of explanation from Xie Ziqi’s assistant, Lin Xi and Luo Susu finally understood that she was Xie Ziqi’s assistant.
And the reason she called for Lin Xi was to invite him inside.
Originally, Lin Xi wanted to refuse, but Luo Susu, who was beside him, encouraged him to go in.
After all, she wanted to get even closer to seeing Xie Ziqi, who she was a loyal fan of!
So Lin Xi glanced at the time, it was eleven thirty at night.
At this point, Bai Bing and Lin Mengmeng should have gone to bed long ago.
So he didn’t hesitate any longer and followed the assistant girl inside with Luo Susu.
Backstage, they saw quite a few actors and props, which had just appeared on stage.
As they walked further in, they saw a separate dressing room; there seemed to be only one of these backstage.
That had to be where Xie Ziqi and others were resting!
The assistant girl said nothing, just opened the door and led Lin Xi and Luo Susu inside.
At this time, on the sofa in the dressing room, three girls were engaged in a lively conversation.
These three were Dili Bare, Xie Ziqi, and Sheng Rusu!
Not far from Dili Bare, her assistant Xiaojuan was standing nearby, seemingly tidying up something.
Seeing Lin Xi and Luo Susu behind the assistant, Xie Ziqi couldn’t help but stand up.
Joining her was Sheng Rusu!
As for Dili Bare, she seemed a bit sulky and didn’t get up to pay attention.
Lin Xi didn’t mind; after some polite small talk with Xie Ziqi and Sheng Rusu, he looked at Xie Ziqi and asked why she called him in.
Xie Ziqi first thanked him for helping Dili Bare, and also mentioned how perfect their collaboration was!
Then she expressed her desire for Lin Xi to perform piano at her future concerts if there were any.
As for the pay, it wasn’t an issue!
After all, after hearing Lin Xi play once, she could feel that this young man’s piano skills had reached an unimaginable level.
If they collaborated, the concert would be even more spectacular!
Beside him, Luo Susu was staring at Lin Xi, as if urging him to agree immediately.
However, Lin Xi didn’t pay her any mind and directly followed his own thoughts, refusing without any hesitation!
"Ungrateful!" Dili Bare angrily chimed in at this moment,
"Do you know how many pianists want to collaborate with my Ziqi? The queue is unimaginable!"
"The reason we invited you is that you helped me today, and of course, you do have some skill!"
"But overall, it’s to help you!"
Indeed, she made a valid point.
Being associated with someone as famous as Xie Ziqi, and getting screen time with her,
would definitely boost one’s career and reputation significantly.
But these things didn’t mean much to Lin Xi.
First, he wasn’t short of money!
Second, he wasn’t short of work!
Third, he needed to remain low-key!
So, he shook his head again to indicate his refusal!
Hearing Lin Xi refuse once more, even Xiaojuan, who was tidying up, looked utterly bewildered.
Dili Bare wanted to say more, but Xie Ziqi immediately interrupted her and said to Lin Xi,
"It’s okay, everyone has their own ambitions after all."
"And with your skills, Lin Xi, you can achieve success regardless of exposure!"
Lin Xi nodded, although internally he was quite confused about what this success was supposed to be.
Because he felt he had already achieved some success!
Sheng Rusu, who had been curiously watching Lin Xi, hadn’t said another word since the first few introductory lines.
In fact, Lin Xi hadn’t paid her any attention!
"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle!" came three consecutive sounds from the stomach of Dili Bare, who was sitting on the sofa!
She looked at Lin Xi then, "Is there anything good to eat? Can you give a suggestion?"
Lin Xi originally didn’t want to bother with her, but since she asked, he indeed felt a bit hungry!
So he replied, the barbecue over at Jiangnan University, it’s absolutely amazing, delicious!
Finally, Lin Xi, Luo Susu, Dili Bare, and Xie Ziqi left backstage together.
Luo Susu drove her car, carrying the three of them to Jiangnan University.
Sheng Rusu also wanted to eat a little, after all, she hadn’t eaten anything for quite some time in the evening!
But when she heard it was barbecue, and that it was not far from the school!
People coming and going, cars passing by, and who knows how much dust has settled on the roadside stalls.
She really couldn’t stand that place!
So she made an excuse about having more business to handle, otherwise, she wouldn’t make it in time.
As for the two celebrity assistants, they actually wanted to come along, but their bosses firmly declined.
The reason being that they were too annoying, and besides, their weight was on the rise.
So, it was not advisable to eat anything.
Both assistants were gnashing their teeth, especially Xiaojuan, who looked like she wanted to bite Dili Bare.
After arriving at the Jiangnan University barbecue shop, it was already past midnight!
At this point, there were hardly any tables under the temporary tents where people were eating.
After all, at this hour, aside from wanderers, who would still be outside eating at this time?
Of course, another reason is that those heartbroken individuals drown their sorrows in alcohol!
The four of them found a corner to sit in, a spot with insufficient lighting.
After all, even if there were fewer people now, it couldn’t guarantee they wouldn’t be recognized.
So, that was a requirement.
Eating should be enjoyable, getting interrupted would be frustrating!
And more importantly, now there were three beautiful women eating barbecue!
One of them was one of Jiangnan University’s campus beauties, the other was a mixed-race beauty at the level of a Jiangnan University campus beauty.
Plus, Lin Xi, who looked like a not very strong young man!
If a group of punks showed up now, there might be trouble!
Lin Xi could heroically save the day, which could significantly improve his impression in their eyes.
With this thought, not far away came a group of punks, with a rainbow assortment of hair colors, and their clothes were missing patches.
"What a coincidence!!!"
