Chapter 607: Xie Zheng Becomes Famous

Chapter 607: Xie Zheng Becomes Famous

After Bai Zhi finished treating Officer Sun, she planned to have lunch with Shen Qian and ask her to help out at the shop the next day.

As a result, Ye Qingbai, who came to the hospital for reconstruction, joined their ranks again.

Bai Zhi could clearly sense that Ye Qingbai had changed.

She couldn't yet give a definitive answer as to why things had changed.

"Cousin, didn't you used to hate the hospital cafeteria food the most? How come you're eating it every day after you were discharged?"

Meeting Bai Zhi's teasing gaze, Ye Qingbai covered his mouth and coughed lightly, "When I was hospitalized before, I ate the patient food, which was bland and tasteless, so it was hard to eat. I think the food here is passable. It's already noon. If I were to go back to the army base, there would be no food left. It's not convenient for me, a wounded patient, to eat out."

Ye Qingbai's reasons are quite valid.

It's irrefutable.

After the three of them got their food, Ye Qingbai, as usual, put a chicken leg from his lunchbox on Shen Qian's plate and said, "Dr. Shen, you can have the chicken leg."

Shen Qian looked embarrassed and politely declined, "No need, I'm on a diet."

"Why are you trying to lose weight when you're so thin? You have such a heavy workload, eat more."

Ye Qingbai considerately picked up a chicken leg and handed it to Shen Qian. Shen Qian glanced at Bai Zhi, unsure how to refuse.

Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Eat up, my cousin has already given you some."

Now she was pretty sure of her cousin's intentions.

Ye Qingbai is a straight man, and his way of pursuing a girl might be to give her the best food in his bowl.

Shen Qian accepted his chicken leg and focused on eating.

Bai Zhi sensed that the two were developing feelings for each other, so she decided to observe the situation quietly and stopped teasing them as she used to.

She's already added the fuel to the fire; now it's just a matter of whether the two of them can spark a romance.

While the three were eating, Bai Zhi's phone rang.

"Xiao Zhi, it's me, Xie Zheng."

Upon hearing the name on the other end of the phone, Bai Zhi was slightly taken aback.

He unconsciously glanced at Shen Qian, who was eating a chicken leg.

"Thank you, big star," Bai Zhi said with a smile. "Why did you suddenly decide to call me?"

"Of course there's good news."

Xie Zheng's voice, like his personality, was cheerful and excited: "I have good news for you, our record has been released and is now on the market."

"Really?" Bai Zhi was genuinely happy for him upon hearing the news. "Congratulations!"

In this life, Xie Zheng's dream came true ahead of schedule.

Xie Zheng's excited voice continued, "Also, we have a big performance next month, the kind that's on TV. When are you coming back? Can you come and support us?"

Bai Zhi hesitated, "Next month? I guess I won't be able to go back then."

The clinic is expected to open next month.

Upon hearing this, Xie Zheng asked again, "Where are Lu Ye and Shen Qian? Do they have time? I haven't heard from them for so long, and they haven't even contacted me, their friend. They have no conscience. This is my first large-scale performance. As childhood friends, it's a bit much for them not to come and support me."

"Lu Ye probably won't have time either." Even if he did have time, he wouldn't go to see Xie Zheng's performance.

Bai Zhi looked at Shen Qian, who was gnawing on a chicken leg, and said, "Shen Qian is right next to me. Do you want to talk to her?"

Xie Zheng said, "Okay, give her the phone."

Bai Zhi handed the mobile phone to Shen Qian, saying, "It's Xie Zheng's call."

Shen Qian hesitated and didn't answer for a long time.

Angelica dahurica also contains elements of experimentation.

She wanted to know if Shen Qian had truly given up on Xie Zheng.

After a two-second pause, she took the mobile phone.

"Hello," Shen Qian said in a flat tone.

"Dr. Shen, my album has been released, and I have a performance next month. Do you have time to come back and support me?"

Shen Qian refused him without hesitation, "I'm really sorry, I'm busy with work and I probably won't be able to come back."

"I knew this would be the result."

Xie Zheng didn't force her at all. He readily agreed, "Okay, then I'll mail you my autographed CDs."

"One for you and one for Xiaozhi."

Ye Qingbai listened to their phone call from the side, and because Xie Zheng's voice was loud enough, he could hear most of it.

So she anxiously pointed to herself and said to Chen Qian, "And me too, ask the big star Xie to send me one."

He wanted to keep it as a memento.

What if Xie Zheng really becomes famous in the future?

That first autographed record would be quite a memorable one.

"Thank you." Shen Qian met Ye Qingbai's gaze and said, "And Ye Qingbai, send him one too."

"Oh my, Ye Qingbai wants it too?" Xie Zheng couldn't help but feel a little smug.

Thinking back to how Ye Qingbai used to look down on him, he now actually wants his autographed record.

This gave him a great sense of accomplishment.

"Okay, no problem."

"That's settled then." After saying that, Shen Qian handed the phone directly to Bai Zhi. "I'm done talking."

Shen Qian's decisive and resolute attitude clearly shows that she has completely let go of this unrequited love.

A person's eyes cannot be faked.

Bai Zhi said,

"Thank you, big star. Remember to mail us records, I'll give you the address."

"What are you doing over there? Why aren't you coming back after the New Year?" Xie Zheng asked curiously. "He went to work. Is it fun for you to stay there all day? Why don't you come back to Nancheng? I can arrange a job for you, like being our agent or something."

"Come on, I have my own things to do," Bai Zhi said. "Besides, Lu Ye is here, why would I go back? We're settling down here from now on, and I've already started preparations to open a traditional Chinese medicine clinic here."

"What?" Xie Zheng was shocked. "You really want to open a traditional Chinese medicine clinic over there? Does that mean you won't be able to come back for several years at a time?"

"That should be true."

Xie Zheng wanted to chat a little longer, but Bai Zhi said she was busy and didn't have time to talk to him.

Xie Zheng could only end the call with her. "Let me know in advance when the clinic opens. If I'm available, I'll come and cut the ribbon for you."

Bai Zhi, "!!!"

Bai Zhi rolled her eyes at Xie Zheng's smug words.

However, thinking back to his past life, Xie Zheng's songs became popular, and he indeed became an extremely busy and unapproachable person.

With an agent, traveling probably won't be as convenient anymore.

She laughed and said, "Big star, you must make time to support me!"

Xie Zheng had already put on airs, saying, "I'll try my best."

After Bai Zhi hung up the phone, Ye Qingbai asked her, "Is Xie Zheng really going to become famous?"

Bai Zhi smiled and said, "He's worked so hard, it's time for him to become famous."

Shen Qian ate her meal with her head down, her tone devoid of emotion, "He's been an unknown for so many years. If he doesn't become famous soon, he won't be able to continue on the path of a singer."

If he doesn't become famous, he won't be able to explain it to Xiaowei.

I can't even explain it to myself.

He will break down.

"Be happy for him, aren't you?" Bai Zhi looked at Shen Qian with a meaningful expression.

"I'm happy." Shen Qian finished her meal, packed up her lunchbox, and said calmly, "I hope his career continues to flourish."

Let's go.

After leaving the cafeteria, Ye Qingbai asked Bai Zhi, "Xiao Zhi, where are you going today? I have time this afternoon, I can keep you company."

"No need to stay with me. You should go back to your unit. You're injured and can't do much. I'll go home in a bit."

After speaking, she looked at Shen Qian and said, "Tomorrow is the weekend, you're not working overtime, are you? If you have nothing to do, come with me to the county town to work."

"What are you doing?" Shen Qian asked.

"Pry open the bricks."

Shen Qian, “???”

Shen Qian was still in a daze, but Ye Qing was very enthusiastic, "I'll go too."

"Where are you going?" She glanced at his arm.

"I can do it with one hand."

Ye Qingbai insisted, so Bai Zhi had no choice but to agree to take him along. "Okay, then let's go together tomorrow."

Old Xia promised to find her a tile setter, but there's still no word.

Bai Zhi plans to buy wood flooring from the building materials store after she has finished removing the floor tiles.

She needs to go home today and make a proper list.

See if you have enough funds to support the renovation of the shop.
