Translator: Doggotranslation
Many people were trying to kidnap Mu Xiaoyou, traffickers, hypnotists, and there were even gigolos, who wanted to chat her up. These people were definitely hired by the people from the fallen city. As for Star Light city, they did not stay quiet either. There was an old grandma asking for an address, lost children asking for help, etc, all kinds of spies appeared in the park one by one.
Little Muli would not fall into this kind of trap. However, the naive Mu Xiaoyou would often fall into traps every time. For a time, Luhua city was like a movie “Running Out of Time”, there were all kinds of spying, scheming, and rescuing activities, it was so frequent that it made the park’s guards very exhausted.
However, there weren’t just the troubles in the ACG world, the trouble in the real world also followed.
Mu Jiajia’s best future career option should be an idol. And in the heart of Zhou Yu, idols did not have to be great and glorious, but at least, they should be innocent. However, Mu Jiajia liked to play and have fun. In just a week of studying in the dubbing group, she brought a problem to the park.
Her ex-boyfriend and current boyfriend had an argument in the park.
Zhou Yu did not know if Mu Jiajia was really dumb or she was pretending to be dumb. Because her ex-boyfriend had told her that he felt very sad about the breakup, so she invited him to the date that she had with her current boyfriend. Problems flared up when her current boyfriend found out that the stranger was her ex.
Then the three people argued non-stop until they were invited to the office by the guard lest they would disturb the other visitors. As soon as Zhou Fu heard it, he was very angry. Boy Yu’s prediction really should not be trusted. If such a gill became an idol, it would not be long before she was banned from the entertainment industry because of various scandals.
Zhou Yu was also helpless, the eyes of the ACG world could indeed see a person’s talent, but it could not see a person’s character. Mu Jiajia’s character was a little bit unrestrained, it was because of this that Zhou Yu’s dream of raising an idol in the real world was shattered. Maybe, she indeed had this kind of talent, but he no longer had the motivation to train her.
The only fortunate thing was that Mu Jiajia’s new relationship began after she had ended the relationship with her ex-boyfriend. Although she still had an ambiguous relationship with her ex-boyfriend, it was always better than the green tea bitch, who liked to have two or more boyfriends at the same time.
Then Zhou Yu checked this ex-boyfriend. As he expected, this ex was the ‘biological father’ of Mu Xiaoyou. His otaku power was 8.2, and his talent was to play a musical instrument, which could become a good partner with Tan Xiuran. However, Zhou Yu only felt sick for a while after watching the ex-boyfriend’s entire performance.
In the beginning, he told Mu Jiajia’s current boyfriend that what happened between him and Mu Jiajia was already the past, now they were just ordinary friends. But after a while. The way he treated Mo Jiajia was definitely not something that a regular friend would do, he was clearly a scumbag, who disguised himself as an innocent man.
Looking at the complicated relationship between three people, Zhou Yu could only discuss how to arrange the position of Mu Jiajia with Zhou Fu helplessly.
“Boy Yu, your prediction is finally wrong this time. Based on this kind of lifestyle, do you really think that she will become an idol?”
“But uncle Fu, you can’t deny that Mu Jiajia is indeed a very popular girl. After only a few days, she can get along with everyone in Qin Zhuan studio. These people are not easy to get along with, and it is a sign of her ability.”
Indeed, affinity and appeal were the two things that her idol talent gave her. It was just that relationship this kind of problem, they really did not know how to handle it. Moreover, as far as they know, most idols in China did not have this kind of problem before they debuted, so Zhou Yu and Zhou Fu both felt that becoming an idol might not be a correct career path for Mu Jiajia.
So they decided to put aside the idol project, and just focus on training her as a voice actor. If one day in the future she would get some recognition, then they would think about this again.
As for the scumbag, even if he was a dazzling person, Zhou Yu did not plan to recruit him. Who knows what kind of troubles he would make if he recruited him. Anyway, he already had a Tan Xiuran this composer. In terms of playing, he could simply hire a band to do it. So he did not feel pity about it.
“Uncle Fu, regarding this relationship problem, could you please handle it for me. But we must do it quick and fast lest the relationship between them becomes even worse. There is no doubt that Mu Jiajia is talented, but she should not be wasting her talent on this relationship problem., In case later she became popular, this kind of thing could easily ruin her reputation.”
“Why can’t you be the bad guy?”
Zhou Fu glared at him and said. However, he knew the answer to this question before Zhou Yu even responded. From the appearance alone, Zhou Yu looked like a harmless and weak young man. Zhou Fu, on the other hand, gave people a feeling of someone who was very serious and important.
Then, the ex-boyfriend brother was invited into a room alone. With a stern face, Zhou Fu started to threaten, “young man, don’t pretend to be innocent in front of me, you will not be able to deceive me. To tell the truth, Mu Jiajia is a singer in Qin Zhuan studio now, her future is very bright. You are the one, who has no job and no abilities, so you need to stay away from Muj Jiajia lest you might ruin her future. If you refuse to cooperate with us, we have other methods to make you cooperate with us!”
To threaten someone, you don’t have to act tough, but you have to be serious, moreover, the words you said have to sound believable.
Being stared at by a pair of serious eyes, the scumbag ex felt deflated. Without saying a single word, he opened the door and left.
However, after Zhou Fu came back, he told Zhou Yu, “Boy Yu, this young man is not a good person. Although he left like this, he would still use dirty tricks in the future. You can’t expect him to really leave Mu Jiajia, and base on Mu Jiajia’s character, maybe if he sweet-talked to her, she might really dump her current boyfriend.”
Dammit, if it is not because Mu Jiajia is now an employee in the studio and Mu Xiaoyou still needs her mother, who wants to take care of this kind of thing?
This kind of problem should be solved as soon as possible, the longer it was delayed, the worse it would become. So Zhou Yu found Mu Jiajia and said to her directly, “Jiajia, even though the studio is currently training you to be a voice actor, but in fact, we want you to debut as a singer. But your performance today has really let us down!”
Mu Jiajia was currently angry with her current boyfriend, who was a very honest young man. She was angry that he did not trust her. To her surprise, Zhou Yu came in and said this to her.
Become a singer? and debut?
For a young girl, the appeal of an idol was still very big. Especially that Zhou Yu’s reputation in the ACG world was big. If he wanted to make a singer popular, he had a lot of resources he could use. Just like Muli, she gained such a great reputation without even showing her face.
Knowing what kind of specific arrangement that Qin Zhuan studio had for her, indeed, it made her very happy. However, the latter half of Zhou Yu’s words sounded like they were giving up on her. This made her reconsider her relationship problem again.
In a word, she had to cut the Gordian knot.
