Chapter 64

In just two short hours, the guests of 《Crazy Interpretation》 took turns appearing in the entertainment section’s hot searches. Princess Xin Nuo’s look took the lead, attracting the attention of many passersby, and the show’s ratings steadily climbed.

The turning point happened at the end of the first and second episodes.

When the dream-like girl with unreal eye colors hugged the white-dressed princess and lightly said, “Who am I?” a segment was inserted. A lady in traditional attire with an indistinct face stood on a high platform, crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling resembling a crown, crowning her.

The audience glued to their TV screens was momentarily stunned, a thought drifting up from their hearts, could it be…

Meanwhile, the viewers holding their phones had excited expressions, immediately clicking into the next episode.

When Miss Silver-Haired, with an indifferent air, stepped down the stairs and looked down upon the humans who should have been kneeling before her, begging for her mercy with her divinely bestowed countenance, the barrage of comments exploded.

“Who is this!!”

“Does she kinda look like that little cat that speaks to you foolish humans??”

“She’s such a good actress!”

“Oh my god, that silver hair, it’s really beautiful~”

At the same time, the SGS Christmas concert trended along with the entertainment section’s hot searches. Xu Heran’s portrayal of the silver dragon in 《Crazy Interpretation》 holding the blue-purple microphone on stage- a figure like an elf in the snow; intertwined with the image of the princess hidden beneath the white dress, who now transformed into a fiery red dress.

The audience was overwhelmed, as if they had found a treasure, swimming like fish through the full-screen hot searches. This continued until late at night, when viewers who were staying up late to watch the variety show saw the girl in a deep purple robe holding hands with the silver dragon through a cage, exchanging secret signals, and excitedly shouting.

The fans were ecstatic, Pengran Xindong was ecstatic, Sister Cui… Sister Cui went crazy.

“Xu Heran!”

Sister Cui pointed at the screen on the TV, asking Xu Heran in astonishment, “If you don’t stick so close to Nuo Nuo, you can’t film variety shows, right?”

Xu Heran, barefoot, lay on the couch, holding a bag of chips, and gave a nonchalant “Mm-hmm” to Sister Cui.

Seeing her expression that seemed to say, “I’m working hard, and you still say I’m making a fuss,” Sister Cui almost spat out a mouthful of blood. She looked at the black-haired girl who had always put her mind at ease.

“Nuo Nuo, are you letting her do as she pleases?”

Xin Nuo looked at the TV, hesitated for a moment, and said, “It’s… not like that when we’re filming.”

The cage in the picture was a bit high, and the silver dragon in boots was naturally tall. Xu Heran stood inside the cage, while Xin Nuo stood outside the cage, and the two leaned against each other across the cage, facing the other guests together.

And, surprisingly, it looked somewhat harmonious.

“The scene looks good,” Jian Yueyin said.

Jiang Qiong sat on the carpet, raising her hand to playfully pat Xu Heran’s leg, “Friend, good friend, you said to let Fenghua act, why don’t you go yourself! You drama queen!”

“No wonder we were just arguing whether it was the others, turns out it’s you two!”

Jian Yueyin shook her head, “Morals are declining.”

Laurel chimed in, “People’s hearts are no longer as they used to be.”

Song Fenghua watched the two people holding hands on TV without saying a word.

Xu Heran chuckled, “I’ll pick up this line: ‘On the old road, the west wind, a lean horse, the sun sets in the west, Qiuer’s intestines are broken at the ends of the earth~'”

“Shut up!” Jiang Qiong roared.

Cui Qi’s phone kept ringing, she knew without looking, it must be the data from a few members of the group that had risen again, and risen significantly, especially the two girls who stood out.

She did consider that Xu Heran and Xin Nuo had good images and personalities and that they might perform well on 《Crazy Interpretation》 However, she didn’t expect them to excel to this extent!

Combined with tonight’s concert, it was truly a case of rising tides lifting the boat. This wave was practically carrying the two of them upwards.

“Alright, New Year’s Day is just around the corner. After New Year’s Day, you’ll all be going back to school, right? Study hard, finish your exams, and after that, I’ll see if I can get you a few more endorsements for the end-of-year awards. Maybe I’ll grab a few more for you.” Sister Cui pressed her temples as she stood up. Clearly, her artists gaining popularity was a good thing, so why did she feel so stressed!

“You all better stay home and behave. No random online posts, no expressing opinions recklessly, and no livestreams, especially you two.” Cui Qi pointed at Xu Heran and then at Xin Nuo. “Listen well, got it?”

“Okay.”

Everyone dragged out their response.

Xu Heran shook his head, “Smart artists should seize the opportunity at times like this and catch up with the trends.”

“Smart artists catch up when they’re eighteen!” Cui Qi exclaimed loudly. “Do you know how many people say you’re dating early?”

Xu Heran muttered, “If someone’s really capable, they should make me date early.”

“It’s still someone not cooperating.”

She muttered to herself, and no one heard.

Cui Qi asked her, “What did you say, Heran?”

“Nothing!” Xu Heran shouted, “Sister Cui, it’s so late and you’re leaving? Stay and rest.”

“Then who should I thank?” Cui Qi said with a sinister smile, “I’ll check the exam schedules at the company. Have you sent them to the assistants? There will be bodyguards and assistants accompanying you for the exams. Make sure to stay safe.”

Now that they were famous, Cui Qi was afraid of overenthusiastic fans doing something impolite.

“Yueyin, I’ll leave the house to you,” Cui Qi said to Jian Yueyin.

Jian Yueyin raised her hand and gave a thumbs up.

As the sound of the closing gate echoed, Xu Heran immediately turned her head and made a clicking sound with her tongue twice.

“Have you noticed that Sister Cui is getting fiercer and fiercer?”

“And who do we owe that to?” Haya touched her chin. “Could it be a certain Little Pearl?”

“I’m not hogging the credit!” Xu Heran firmly denied taking credit for herself. “Everyone contributed to this matter. We’re in this together, hand in hand.”

Xin Nuo yawned, stood up, and stretched her shoulders by reaching behind her back.

“I feel like Sister Cui’s trust in me has decreased,” Xin Nuo said with a smile.

“Remove the ‘feel’ from that sentence,” Jiang Qiong said.

The most well-behaved Lin Weining hesitated, “I think, in the future, it might get even lower…”

She turned her head and glanced at Xu Heran.

Xu Heran widened her eyes, showing a shocked expression of “even you.”

Lin Weining smiled with curved eyes, “I didn’t say anything, you know~”

“Trust between goddesses is gone!” Xu Heran exclaimed loudly. “I’m going to have Haya steal your clothes while you’re showering!”

Haya raised an eyebrow, and as Lin Weining glared at her, immediately lifted her hand and made an “X” gesture across her chest.

“Halt your mischievous deeds,” Haya said.

“You’re one to talk,” Xin Nuo added, picking up her water glass and preparing to head upstairs, prompting everyone else to rise one after another.

“Are you going to rest?” Xu Heran glanced at the time. “It’s indeed not early.”

Jiang Qiong sighed, “Resting… is not resting. We still have to review some exercises.”

The students facing final exams all had solemn expressions and nodded one after another.

Xu Heran was shocked, watching them go upstairs.

“Your Majesty Hua, since the two of us can afford it, why don’t we…” She exchanged a glance with Laurel.

The sea of learning knows no bounds, but there’s always a way back to shore!

Laurel’s eyes gradually lit up, feeling excited.

Jian Yueyin walked over, “Neither of you should even think about it.”

“Let’s go to sleep.”

“I’ll lie down for a bit more,” Xu Heran said. After a moment’s thought, she stood up again. “Never mind, I’ll go see everyone working on their exercises.”

After she left, Laurel looked up, “Doesn’t the term ‘everyone’ also have another name, Xin Nuo?”

Jian Yueyin burst into laughter and nodded repeatedly.

“I think so.”

In the kitchen, after fetching water, Song Fenghua walked out, looking at Xu Heran’s skipping figure going upstairs, and muttered softly, “Is it the unspoken understanding between them that’s causing the pain of unrequited love?”

The girl lowered her eyelashes, thought for a moment, and shook her head slightly.

“No, it’s ‘finals’.”

She turned around and returned to the kitchen, adding coffee powder to her water glass.

“This is the bitterness of life.”

SGS had started an unofficial break. This break was mainly to accommodate the girls’ final exams. After Christmas, New Year’s Day was approaching, and Xu Heran’s fitness sessions were moved to her home.

Every time Jiang Qiong’s head felt muddled and she treated going downstairs as her only exercise, when she saw Xu Heran in the gym wearing boxing gloves, practicing with a fitness coach, thoughts such as “Should I treat Xu Pearl better?” “I probably don’t have any grievances against Xu Pearl, right?” “Well, whether I offend or not, offending Xu Pearl is still better than facing finals, right?” would arise in her mind.

On the Lantern Festival day, Xu Heran accompanied Xin Nuo to the assisted living home to visit Xin Nuo’s mother.

“Should we bring your mom to the park?” Xu Heran asked Xin Nuo. “Hasn’t Manager Cui contacted the company and reserved eight sets of rooms for us? You can clean one up and have your mom come stay.”

Xin Nuo considered for a moment, then thought about the money she had on hand, and after hesitating, shook her head. “My mom seems quite happy at the assisted living home. She has made quite a few friends, chats with them on regular days, and even goes out shopping with them. Her spirits are much better than before.”

Xu Heran smiled and squinted, saying, “I think her improved spirits are because she sees how successful you are now. She’s happy for you.”

“And I also wonder if she might want to be with you more?”

Her words made Xin Nuo pause. She felt that Xu Heran’s words made sense and was pleasantly surprised because of who said them. It was like the feeling of one’s own child growing up.

“I’ll discuss it with my mom, Pearl. Thank you,” Xin Nuo said earnestly to Xu Heran, her eyes curving.

“No need to thank me,” Xu Heran’s expression was serious. “But you can give me a kiss in return.”

Xin Nuo’s smile froze a bit, she raised her hand and pinched Xu Heran’s nose, “You’re talking nonsense.”

The car entered the assisted living home and parked in the parking lot.

Inside the car, Xu Heran watched Xin Nuo get out before releasing her seatbelt. She whispered, “I’m not talking nonsense. I’m serious.”

The girl, who was closing the car door, lowered her head and froze her movements.

The door closed slowly, concealing her expression.

Xu Heran got out of the car, took flowers from the trunk, and seeing Xin Nuo wearing a hat, he exclaimed in surprise, “Do you feel cold?”

Xin Nuo’s face remained expressionless. “Cold. Let’s go, stop lingering.”

“Alright,” Xu Heran said indulgently, taking Xin Nuo’s hand.

Their slender fingertips intertwined. Xin Nuo lowered her head, glanced at their interlocked fingers, then raised her head to look at the girl who was humming a song and walking ahead. The girl who had already grown taller than her stood tall and elegant, like a lively bamboo, tough and reaching towards the sun.

Xin Nuo silently observed their fingers for a while. Then, she raised her hand and tugged at the strings of her hat firmly.

Tsk.

Underage.

Xin Nuo’s mother was delighted by the arrival of Xu Heran and Xin Nuo. She had recently been learning baking with her friends and quickly brought out some freshly baked cookies for them to taste.

Xin Nuo had chosen an assisted living home with a good environment and relatively reasonable cost. But because she was doing well now, she could naturally provide her mother with a better living environment.

“Nuonuo, are you feeling warm?” Xin Nuo’s mother looked at Xin Nuo’s face as she removed her hat, and asked in confusion.

Xin Nuo’s expression remained faint as she raised her hand and touched her cheek. “Maybe I got a bit flushed just now.”

“I’ll go wash some fruit,” she picked up a bag of fruit and headed to the kitchen.

Xin Nuo’s mother muttered to herself in confusion, “This child, how come she’s still shy in front of her mother?”

“What’s wrong?” Xu Heran walked over, holding cookies in her hand, and asked with a smile, “Auntie, is something broken? Do you need someone to fix it?”

“No, just have a seat. Is there anything you want to eat? Auntie will make it for you,” Xin Nuo’s mother grew more fond of Xu Heran the more she looked at her. She was surprised that Xu Heran had grown so tall during the time they hadn’t seen each other and mentioned that she wanted to make a stew for her.

“No need, Auntie. I actually came to eat dumplings with you. We bought pre-packaged dumplings,” Xu Heran said. “Please don’t trouble yourself. Otherwise, I won’t come next time.”

“Alright,” Xin Nuo’s mother’s tone was gentle. “Auntie will cook dumplings for you shortly.”

Xu Heran followed her, speaking eagerly, “It’s the filling that our family’s Laurel made. We all wrapped them together, you know, Laurel, Laurel Blossom, Your Majesty Blossom.”

Xin Nuo’s mother immediately said, “I know, the little girl whose hair has grown long now, right?”

“Yes!”

Xin Nuo came out holding the fruit.

“Please, for our guests-” she said to Xu Heran.

Xu Heran replied politely, “Thank you.”

With a serious expression, she turned to Xin Nuo’s mother sitting beside her and said, “Your daughter is really nice, polite, and she’s so beautiful. It’s obvious where she gets it from.”

Xin Nuo’s mother burst into laughter.

By lunchtime, Xin Nuo and her mother were in the kitchen making dumplings together. Xu Heran sat on the sofa, but as she sat, she started to lean back. The mother and daughter in the kitchen were speaking softly, and since it was impolite to eavesdrop, she turned on the TV and tuned it to Channel 66, the Universal TV.

The members of the girl group “Fish Harmony” were passionately dancing on the stage.

“Oh, Lingxi has released a new song again,” Xu Heran said. She picked up her phone and sent them messages, then reposted their content on Weibo.

In the kitchen, Xin Nuo quietly discussed the matter of moving with her mother.

“The medical conditions there are quite good. There’s a private comprehensive hospital nearby that’s in collaboration with Universal Entertainment. The confidentiality is also good,” Xin Nuo whispered. “The only downside is that the park is quite large, and there are few people currently living there.”

Xin Nuo’s mother hesitated, “How long have you been working?”

She was worried that Xin Nuo couldn’t afford it.

“How about selling the old house and the studio?”

She had rented out her original dance studio, which provided a stable source of income.

“No need, I’m just letting you know for now,” Xin Nuo said. “Plus, the house needs renovation and cleaning. You can’t move in right now.”

She smiled and added, “I just wanted to tell you. I was afraid you wouldn’t want to live with me.”

Xin Nuo’s mother chuckled and said, “Is it that I don’t want to live with you, or that you don’t want to live with me?”

“Nuo Nuo, Mom knows you. I watch your show, and you seem much happier now than before,” Xin Nuo’s mother’s tone was sincere as she smiled and sighed.

Xin Nuo took out a plate and raised an eyebrow at her words. “So, is happiness given to me by my financial ability?”

“This child talks nonsense,” Xin Nuo’s mother said helplessly. “That’s one thing that hasn’t changed since before.”

“You’ve made many good friends, Mom knows.”

She turned her head, looking through the kitchen door outside. “Ran Ran is really a good kid, and she’s becoming more composed.”

Xin Nuo raised an eyebrow.

Composed?

After the New Year’s holiday, the students were officially embarking on their “journey” of final exams.

According to Xin Nuo’s mother, a certain Pearl that was becoming steadier day by day climbed out of bed one early morning after New Year’s Day and hugged Xin Nuo’s suitcase.

“No, I must go with you!” Xu Heran said with a low mood.

“I want to take the exam with you!”

With a pouting expression, Xu Heran said, “I haven’t seen your alma mater yet.”

Xin Nuo looked down at her coldly and said, “Are you trying to cause trouble for me?”

“Come on, can’t I experience the atmosphere of college?” Xu Heran sat on the floor with her legs crossed. “I’ll cheer you on.”

“Got it, thanks, but it’s not necessary,” Xin Nuo said. “I’m going to take a three-day exam, not a three-year imperial examination.”

She squatted down to put on her shoes, thinking that she should really let her mother see how hopeless the foolish pearl was now.

“Hehe, even if you don’t let me go, I’ll still go!” Xu Heran proudly lifted her chin. “Sister Cui booked a plane ticket for me. We’re flying together~”

In the living room, a girl who was packing her things to fly to another city for an exam asked in surprise, “You’re really going?”

“Mhm!” Xu Heran nodded firmly. “Sister Cui told me. She told me last night that she’s booking a plane ticket for me to get up early today!”

Xin Nuo looked at Xu Heran in astonishment. How could Sister Cui arrange for her to go take the exam with herself?

“Of course that’s not possible.” Sister Cui got up early to send the girls off. She handed Xu Heran’s passport to Xu Heran’s assistant and smiled, “They’re flying within the province, and you’re flying overseas.”

Xu Heran: “???”

“They heard that you have a break, and President Xu has been urging me to book your ticket to let you go home. Miss Xu Heran, you haven’t been home for half a year. Your family really misses you and wants to see you.”

Xu Heran: “…what?“

“We just finished our call not long ago!” Xu Heran felt deceived, “And it’s almost the end of the month, which means it’s almost Chinese New Year. Of course, I’m going back for the New Year!”

“Going back so early now? I still need to attend the awards ceremony with everyone!”

“It’s precisely because you might not go back for Chinese New Year that President Xu told me to pack you up and take you back. You can stay at home for a few more days.” Cui Qi said. She lowered her head to reply to a message and said, “President Xu instructed that everything is ready at home. Just bring yourself back.”

After saying that, the efficient manager looked up and scrutinized Xu Heran.

“Well, this outfit is fine. Let’s go. President Xu said you won’t be on this flight. She arranged for a private plane to pick you up.”

Jiang Qiong laughed heartily, “My mom is so domineering.”

Xu Heran said angrily, “She dares to tell you this? Tell her to talk to me!”

Xin Nuo chuckled, stepped aside, and said, “Let’s go, classmate Zhuzhu .”

The girl reached out her hand towards Xu Heran on the ground.

Unhappily, Xu Heran placed her hand on Xin Nuo’s hand, and Xin Nuo pulled her up.

“I’ve met Xin Nuo’s mom several times already, but you haven’t met my mom yet,” she said unhappily. “I was actually thinking about taking you to Blue Country someday.”

Hearing Xu Heran’s words, Xin Nuo’s heart inexplicably tensed. She casually responded and chuckled, “Alright, got it. If there’s a chance, I’ll definitely go.”

Only then did Xu Heran nod satisfactorily. She stood at the doorway, first seeing off Xin Nuo and Jiang Qiong. Their exam was in the afternoon, and the landing would be around noon. They would grab a meal and then proceed to the exam.

Song Fenghua, Lin Weining, and Haya’s flights were more scattered. Surprisingly, Xu Heran was the first to leave. She was wearing pajamas, holding a cup, and her assistant was carrying her secretly packed bag.

“You heartless people deceived me,” Xu Heran muttered, “My soul has been greatly wounded!”

“Mhm, mhm, mhm.”

The assistant said while guiding her into the car, “It’s going to be a flight of over ten hours. I’ve prepared snacks you like. Are you happy?”

Xu Heran: “Hmm.”

“You can’t buy my heart like this!”

“I asked the 《Rustling in the Wind》 drama crew for behind-the-scenes footage of Xin Nuo filming. It’s stored in the tablet. There are all kinds of videos from the variety shows you participated in and fan edits.”

Xu Heran’s voice was calm, “Is it Nuo Nuo’s?”

“I’m speechless!” The assistant clapped her hands.

Xu Heran immediately said, “But you’re my good friend!”

“Please feel free to bribe my eyes!” Xu Heran obediently fastened her seatbelt. She bid farewell to Jian Yueyin and Song Fenghua, who came to see her off. “I’ll bring you local specialties!”

“Just bring yourself back in good shape,” Jian Yueyin said with a smile.

She watched the departing car’s silhouette and asked Song Fenghua, “What’s the local specialty of Blue Country?”

Song Fenghua contemplated for a moment.

“The king?”

Jian Yueyin: “…”

That makes sense.

She hoped that Little Pearl would be rational, but she also hoped to see her under the free blue sky.

The two girls clasped their hands together and silently thought.

Universal Entertainment was generous, booking first-class cabins for the girls, and keeping the itinerary confidential.

Beside Xu Heran sat her assistant, her bodyguards were in other cabins, returning with her.

“Over ten hours.”

Xu Heran lay down, her expression numb. She didn’t know how she ended up here. Just an hour ago, she was still holding hands with Xin Nuo.

“I thought you wouldn’t wake up. I was about to come and get you,” the assistant said with a smile while organizing documents.

Xu Heran’s expression became even more wooden. It turned out she had fallen into her own trap.

Pearl’s tone was melancholic, “Everyone has been immersed in studying lately, and I don’t like playing games alone. Even Laurel is studying hard. I have no choice but to study as well.”

She didn’t know how other girl groups managed their schedules and private lives. SGS, enveloped by final exams, was unusually harmonious. Xu Heran exercised every day, studied diligently, ate heartily, slept after being full, and nurtured herself to become a healthy and beautiful little pearl with fair and rosy skin.

“Sister Yueyin is even scarier. While others are forced to stay up late, Sister Yueyin likes to sit on the rooftop and watch the stars at night. She says darkness, quietness, and loneliness give her unlimited inspiration,” Xu Heran murmured, “I hope she doesn’t write a sad love song for us.”

The assistant chuckled, “Our members are getting younger one after another, and they haven’t experienced the bitterness of love.”

Love, is it bitter?

Little Pearl was tinkering with headphones. Her movements paused when she heard the words. She lay in her spacious seat wearing pajamas, a thick down jacket beneath her. Her blue-purple eyes drifted upwards, gazing at the clean cabin ceiling.

Love…

In her heart, an unfamiliar figure intruded. First encounter: the girl’s indifferent expression in a crowd. During a drill, the occasional smile. After getting to know each other: the girl’s bright black pupils and the ever-present smile directed at her.

Nuo Nuo, such a gentle girl. If they were in love, it would surely be sweet.

Xu Heran thought with certainty.

If it were Nuo Nuo, it wouldn’t be bitter for sure!

Hmm… if she had to experience bitterness, she’d try it with Nuo Nuo. She also wanted to give it a shot.

Hehe.

Xu Heran bit her lip, holding the tablet filled with many clips of Xin Nuo. She smiled happily. The assistant next to her heard Xu Heran’s voice, unsure of what she was thinking, but smiled along.

Little Pearl pulled down her hat, covering her face.

She thought of that night. Ever since that night, she has dreamt of many scenes, many versions of Xin Nuo.

That kind of Xin Nuo…

“Huh!!”

Xu Heran curled up her legs, clenching her fists in excitement.

The assistant felt that Xu Heran’s mood had fluctuated a billion times today. Her tone was gentle, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing!” Xu Heran exclaimed loudly, “I’m going to sleep! Good night!”

She buried herself in the blanket, closing her eyes.

Ah, love~

In the late night of the Blue Country, a row of luxury cars was parked at the Capital International Airport. The elongated luxury car in the center was particularly eye-catching, but the rows of bodyguards around it kept people from getting too close.

Inside the airport, when black-clad bodyguards escorted the tall girl out, the door of the luxury car opened slowly. Stepping out in slender high heels, the woman with black sunglasses got out of the car. Her dark shoulder-length hair draped over her exposed shoulders in an exquisite dress. She raised her hand, took off her sunglasses, and handed them to her assistant.

Her exquisite eyes fell upon the girl standing in front of her, expressionless with drooping eyelids.

Xu Menglan raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “Speak.”

Xu Heran pouted, “Mom…”

“Hey~” Xu Menglan smiled, raising her hand to embrace Xu Heran and gently touching her cheek, “Are you cold?”

“Are you tired?”

“You should’ve taken a private jet.”

“Not tired, but you didn’t even tell me!” Xu Heran said angrily, “I don’t care, you should treat Xu Junran the same way!”

“Yeah yeah, Mom will tie him up as soon as he’s done with the exam, okay?” Xu Menglan was so happy that she saw her precious daughter that she hugged her into the car. Once the car door closed, the woman breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned her head and looked at Xu Heran, who was still holding her arms with a very angry expression.

Xu Menglan chuckled lightly, leaned closer to Xu Heran, and playfully poked her cheek with her finger.

“Zhuzhu, you’re amazing.”

Xu Heran immediately responded, “Of course!”

“I became popular as soon as I debuted! Our group’s album sales are unbeatable!” Xu Heran proudly said, giving herself a thumbs up.

The woman’s eyes were full of interest, and upon closer inspection, there was a hint of excitement.

“Darling, I heard that you’ve found a daughter-in-law for your mother?”

Xu Heran waved her hand dismissively and said with disdain, “Who told you that!”

Author’s Notes:

As mentioned in the summary.

In a family with three treasures, the old mother who has never held hands with outsiders before is unusually excited.
