"From Mr. Chen's tone, it seems you really love your girlfriend," Zhou Jingqi smiled at Chen Haoxuan.
"Yes," Chen Haoxuan nodded in response.
"Mr. Chen, I heard that when you were down and out, you worked as a tutor, and your first student was Sister Meilin. That's how you became her teacher, right?" Zhao Hai asked Chen Haoxuan.
"That's right. At that time, I was very poor, living on simple meals and staying in a shabby Tile House. To improve our situation, my girlfriend Chen Yina and I took up tutoring jobs. Meilin's family was well-off; her mother, Ms. Li Yuzhen, invited both my girlfriend and me to tutor her child. My girlfriend taught her son middle school subjects. As for Meilin, she excelled academically and didn't need to study much; she wanted to learn piano, so I taught her. What surprised me was that after just a few weeks of teaching her, she showed such talent that calling her a musical genius is no exaggeration," Chen Haoxuan said.
"Mr. Chen, I'm curious. You're such a smart person; why did you live poorly before? Now you've suddenly become so successful with a car, a house, money, women, status, reputation, talent, and looks... Can you tell us why?" Zhou Jingqi asked curiously. Ever since she read Chen Haoxuan's profile, she had been wanting to ask this question—one that everyone in the world wanted to know.
"Because people can change. Is that answer satisfactory?" Chen Haoxuan replied calmly.
Zhou Jingqi awkwardly said, "We'll consider that answer somewhat satisfactory! I have one more question: Mr. Chen, you can sing, play various instruments, and dance. Can you share who taught you?"
"I learned everything by myself; I watched a lot of television and eventually picked it up," Chen Haoxuan said with a faint smile.
"Genius is just different," Zhou Jingqi praised.
Zhou Jingqi and Zhao Hai continued to ask about the secrets of Chen Haoxuan's life. Their collaboration kept the audience engaged, all of them marveling at the revelation of who Chen Haoxuan truly was.
Chen Haoxuan and Meilin Huang occupied four people's performance time, but everyone at Shuanghu TV was not angry; instead, they were very excited because their ratings were rapidly rising to second place. If Chen Haoxuan stayed a little longer, they could reach first place.
To secure the top ratings, the manager of Shuanghu TV personally went to the recording site and used an earpiece to instruct Zhou Jingqi and Zhao Hai to ensure they kept Chen Haoxuan engaged and asked all the questions everyone had about him.
Chen Haoxuan frowned. He didn't expect to be on the show for so long. He was getting impatient; Shuanghu TV hadn't paid him a dime, and even if they had, he wouldn't have cared. His fame was earned through his own strength, and now Shuanghu TV was using him, thanks to Meilin Huang, for so long. The longer he stayed, the more he feared that his secrets would be revealed by the two hosts, Zhou Jingqi and Zhao Hai.
Chen Haoxuan interrupted Zhou Jingqi, saying, "Qiqi, I have something to take care of. Can I leave now?"
He wanted to go, but Zhou Jingqi and the others in the entertainment industry dared not stop him. "Of course you can. Thank you for coming to our show. We hope to invite you again next time," Zhou Jingqi smiled at Chen Haoxuan.
"You’re too kind. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now." Chen Haoxuan shook hands with Zhou Jingqi and Zhao Hai, waved goodbye to the audience, said a few farewells, and turned to leave the stage.
Meilin Huang hurriedly followed Chen Haoxuan, ignoring Zhou Jingqi and the others calling her. She came to the show just to satisfy her desire to show off and to let Chen Haoxuan see her abilities. Now that she had achieved her goals, there was no need to stay on stage any longer.
After leaving the backstage area, as Chen Haoxuan passed by the contestants' lounge, he noticed that those participating in the competition were all standing at the exit with a small notebook and a pen.
"What are you doing?" Chen Haoxuan asked curiously.
"Brother Xuan, I'm your fan! Can I get your autograph?" A sensibly dressed girl rushed up to Chen Haoxuan excitedly.
"Mr. Chen, I've always looked up to you as my idol! Can I get your autograph?" A boy roughly pushed aside the girl and ran up to Chen Haoxuan excitedly. The girls generally called him Brother Xuan while the boys preferred to call him Mr. Chen since they weren't used to such affectionate terms.
"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry. Let's do autographs next time!" Chen Haoxuan said apologetically. In truth, he wasn't in a rush; he simply didn't want to sign autographs for these people because it would make him seem too casual. If that happened, he would be surrounded by crowds wherever he went in the future. To avoid such situations, Chen Haoxuan firmly refused to sign casually.
The contestants still didn't give way for Chen Haoxuan. After saying goodbye didn’t work, he pushed through the crowd with sheer force. Meanwhile, Meilin Huang obediently held onto Chen Haoxuan's shirt and followed him out of the crowd.
Meilin Huang's aunt, Huang Xueyan, saw them come out and happily approached them. She first thanked Chen Haoxuan: "Mr. Chen, thank you for coming personally to support Meilin at Talent Show. I really appreciate it."
"She is my student. If I didn't support her, I wouldn't have taught her my original piano piece," Chen Haoxuan said with a smile.
"Meilin is truly fortunate to have a teacher like you," Huang Xueyan replied with a smile.
"Auntie, you don't need to be so polite to Brother Xuan. He doesn't like too much formality with acquaintances, as it makes things feel distant," Meilin Huang said sweetly.
Chen Haoxuan patted Meilin Huang's little head and smiled, "It seems our Meilin has grown up; she understands such things now."
"Of course! I'm very smart," Meilin Huang said proudly, holding her head high.
"I want to leave now. I wonder if you all want to go back with me or if you prefer to leave tomorrow?" Chen Haoxuan asked Huang Xueyan.
"Let's go back together! It’s better to have someone looking out for us," Huang Xueyan smiled. This was her first time interacting with Chen Haoxuan, and she didn't expect him to be so easygoing and approachable.
