Jinling was so far away from Yangcheng. Luckily with advanced technology there were airplanes to get there in a flash.
When they arrived in Yangcheng it was late at night, and since they had kept the trip hidden, there were no fans at the airport to pick them up.
Nan Xiangwan's party got on the bus Zhao Tiancheng had arranged and headed towards the hotel.
It was already 1 or 2am, and everyone was yawning sleepily.
Zhao Tiancheng said coldly: "Yawning now, but when you get to the hotel you'll start ordering late night snacks and beer right?"
Ge Dongxuan waved her hands: "No no, I'm really tired today, I really won't eat anymore."
Nan Xiangwan had already opened her phone: "Director Zhao, the hotel address."
Everyone else: "..."
Ge Dongxuan's expression didn't change: "Getting owned comes so promptly."
Everyone else: "Hahaha!"
Even Zhao Tiancheng had to admit defeat: "Nan Xiangwan, don't eat anymore, don't you have a biological clock? You're still a student, go to bed early!"
Nan Xiangwan: "Still have a biological clock after filming Mystery Room for so long?"
Deng Si Nan: "Wow, that show really is scary."
Sha Ling: "Wahhh don't want to remember it, afraid I won't be able to sleep."
Zhou Wenxia: "But it was pretty fun, really thrilling, it makes me want to go too."
Zhu Sha: "Director Zhao, after the tour can you arrange for us to go on a scary variety show too? I kind of want to go too."
Yun Qian: "Are you all going? Then I'll go too."
Ge Dongxuan: "Sha Ling let's sleep together tonight okay?"
Sha Ling: "Okay okay!"
Zhao Tiancheng was just about to say something, but the seven girls started chatting again, seamlessly linking one sentence to the next, not letting him get a word in edgewise, getting more and more excited and even wanting to pretend to be ghosts.
Seeing the seven of them chatter away, Zhao Tiancheng couldn't stand it anymore and yelled loudly: "Quiet! We're almost at the hotel, get ready to wash up and sleep!"
In the end Nan Xiangwan still didn't get the address ahead of time to order food on the way there.
When they arrived at the hotel, the check-in had already been handled by staff who had arrived earlier. The few of them pulled their suitcases and went straight to their rooms.
The Destiny Girls had matured now. No matter the performances or coordination between team members, everything meshed perfectly.
The staff strove to arrange everything to maximize the artists' working time, and the Destiny Girls also worked hard to ensure no problems occurred.
Another virtuous cycle!
Nan Xiangwan obediently went to sleep today, falling asleep as soon as she hit the bed.
Next door Ge Dongxuan hugged a pillow and knocked on Sha Ling's door. The two useless girls crowded into one bed but were still too scared to fall asleep.
Deng Si Nan and Zhou Wenxia had agreed to watch horror movies together, who knows how late they stayed up.
Like Nan Xiangwan, Zhu Sha and Yun Qian went to sleep normally.
The next morning.
Zhao Tiancheng went to wake them up, knocking on each room's door, but only managed to wake up Zhu Sha and Yun Qian.
Zhu Sha: "Director Zhao, rehearsing today?"
Caught off guard by the question, Zhao Tiancheng awkwardly replied: "No rehearsal."
Zhu Sha: "Then let them sleep a little longer ba."
Yun Qian: "Right, it's only 9:30."
Zhao Tiancheng: "Fine, let's eat breakfast."
The three of them went downstairs to the buffet restaurant and got food, about to start eating.
Just then another person walked in, footsteps heavy like they were stepping on metal.
Clank clank!
The three looked up to see Nan Xiangwan walking towards them.
Nan Xiangwan was drenched in sweat, hair wet with sweat, wearing weighted accessories. She had clearly just finished her morning workout.
She seemed to be starving, not even noticing the familiar faces in the restaurant. She grabbed a plate and shoveled food from a serving bowl into it.
Familiar motions, familiar actions, a full plate of food just like that!
Nan Xiangwan did this three times, piling three heaping plates on the table before starting to eat.
Head down eating away, starving.
Watching from afar, Zhao Tiancheng felt like he was looking at a small pig burrowing away.
Zhu Sha and Yun Qian had already gotten up to help bring more food over for Nan Xiangwan.
They both knew those three plates were nowhere near enough for the girl!
Somehow or other, the three girls ended up sitting at one table, leaving Zhao Tiancheng alone at his.
Zhao Tiancheng: "..."
How did things turn out this way!
He refused to accept it!
So he too brought his food over to sit with them.
After wolfing down one round of food, Nan Xiangwan's lightheaded feeling of hunger was relieved, and she finally had the brain power to think again.
Zhu Sha lovingly wiped away her sweat: "Why'd you work out so hard today?"
Nan Xiangwan: "School's starting soon, can't relax, who knows how exceptional my classmates will be."
Yun Qian: "You're already very capable, not many girls can achieve what you have, no need to compare with boys."
Nan Xiangwan: "I'm not comparing with boys, I just..."
Want to be the best!
It's not about comparing, it's about surpassing everyone!
Saying this, a surge of drive rose up in Nan Xiangwan. She wished she could finish eating then go practice another three hours.
Zhu Sha: "Alright alright, eat first."
Listening to their conversation, a question mark popped up over Zhao Tiancheng's head.
What starting school, what comparing, what exceptional?
Zhao Tiancheng: "What university are you attending Nan Xiangwan, want me to put out a press release praising you?"
Other celebrities get lots of praise for being admitted.
Zhu Sha and Yun Qian instantly became extremely nervous.
Yun Qian started banging on the table: "Ah! Ah ah! This table! Why is it shaking by itself?"
Zhu Sha held her phone in her hand: "Director Zhao have you seen my phone? I can't find my phone."
Zhao Tiancheng: "???"
What are they doing!
If he doesn't ask anymore is that still okay?
Although he didn't understand what exactly was going on, Zhao Tiancheng sensed he had asked a forbidden question.
He decided not to pursue it. After all Nan Xiangwan was the boss of Hua Wan Entertainment. No lack of resources or publicity there, that team would naturally take action.
He would watch the situation and either follow along or cooperate. He could discuss it with Shao Fu later.
But that wasn't the key point. The key point was the Destiny Seven had a little secret excluding him.
Zhao Tiancheng suddenly felt somewhat disappointed. He treated them like his precious granddaughters, yet they treated him like an outsider.
Alas! The children had grown up and had their own little secrets!
As a result for the rest of breakfast Zhao Tiancheng ate only half as much as usual, lacking enjoyment.
Luckily after the storm passed Zhu Sha immediately changed topics: "Director Zhao, going shopping later?"
Yun Qian: "Nan Xiangwan kept saying in Jinling she wanted to buy stuff. Director Zhao come with us!"
Zhao Tiancheng revived with full blood: "I'll drive, where do you want to go? What do you want to buy?"
Nan Xiangwan looked at her system panel: "Mm, I want to buy 1.1 million RMB worth of stuff."
Zhao Tiancheng was full of question marks. What kind of phrasing was that, setting yourself a spending goal before even going shopping?
Zhu Sha: "Then I'll buy 1 million RMB worth of stuff."
Yun Qian: "I'll go for 900,000 RMB!"
Aside from their income as a group, the Destiny Seven girls all had good individual development too. By now each had made some money.
It was just that everyone had been busy furthering their careers before, mostly only shopping online.
What was the point of money collecting dust in their accounts?
Spend it!
