However, Xia Yiwei said, “Sorry for bothering you tonight; we’re friends, it’s no trouble.”
Seeing her sincerity, Boss Wu was convinced.
They hadn’t developed a deep relationship, but with Xia Yiwei’s temperament, it was no wonder she had managed to stay in the industry as a pretty face for so many years without any major mishaps.
The manager and other actors beside them listened to Boss Wu expressing gratitude, feeling quite curious. It wasn’t until Xia Yiwei took off her sunglasses that they suddenly came to their senses, feeling a bit excited. Did that mean they had shared a stage with a celebrity today?
Since they were in a teahouse, Xia Yiwei looked at Qi Shejiang, and it crossed her mind to invite him to duet “He Bi Xi Xiang” with her. Boss Wu didn’t pay much attention to entertainment news, but Xia Yiwei could bring a son along or even ten or eight sons; it was all fine.
Qi Shejiang also scanned the backstage and smiled, “Then I’ll borrow a string from you to accompany you.”
In the private room, an old man and a young man were sipping tea while coldly watching the scene below. The young man, around seventeen or eighteen, stretched his neck to take a look, saying, “Grandfather, that storyteller was driven off the stage.”
The old man said lightly, “Go find out if those two you mentioned are coming back.”
The young man nodded and left the private room. Shortly after, he returned, saying, “They probably won’t come back, alas.”
If Liu Da were here, he would definitely regret to the bone.
The old man, known by the stage name Liu Quan Hai, was a veteran in the crosstalk circle who had been active on television for decades, with a big disciple who was the vice president of the Beijing Crosstalk Association. Although he hadn’t performed much in recent years, his status mattered. What he said was far more effective than Liu Da running around.
Liu Da had unconsciously become acquainted with Liu Quan Hai through his disciple, who had hinted countless times in front of him, wanting to establish a connection with the old master Liu.
