Chapter 66 He is Fan Bingbing's husband!
Chapter 66 He is Fan Bingbing's husband!
Back in his dorm, Xu Jingxing, who had forgotten his keys at Hengdian, knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response from inside.
He was puzzled. He had specifically called Yang Shuo yesterday to confirm that he was at school today.
They've disappeared again; I wonder where they've gone off to party this time.
He had no choice but to leave his luggage in the room next door, where Sun Jian lived. After washing his face, he set off to find Liu Shishi.
I spent ages trying to hail a taxi at the school gate. I don’t know if it was because of the evening rush hour, but I guess all the taxis in the capital had gone to the CBD to wait for fares. I waited for almost 20 minutes and couldn’t flag down a single car.
With no other option, Xu Jingxing could only follow the rush hour crowd and plunge into Metro Line 1.
I just called Liu Shishi. She's already in Xidan with her friends. Line 1 goes right there.
Squeezed in the crowd, a faint smell of cumin kept trying to assault Xu Jingxing's nostrils. To avoid this chemical attack, he dodged and weaved until he finally squeezed into a corner where there were fewer people, and he could finally breathe some fresher air.
As Xu Jingxing looked up at the station, he suddenly noticed several pairs of eyes fixed on him from a distance.
The girls would glance at the GG screen in the subway for a while, and then turn their slightly scrutinizing gazes to Xu Jingxing.
Xu Jingxing panicked. "Damn it, could it be that the source of that cumin smell from earlier was on me?"
Several heads in front of him blocked Xu Jingxing's view, and he had no idea what was on the screen right now.
Could it be some kind of product that gets rid of body odor?
Xu Jingxing quickly raised his hands to grip the railing, using the dryness under his armpits to prove his innocence.
But it obviously didn't work. After a few whispers among themselves, one of the girls actually squeezed her way to her seat.
They've come at the perfect time; I'll let her smell it herself in a bit to see if it has any odor.
"that......"
The girl who finally managed to squeeze through first carefully examined Xu Jingxing, then cautiously asked, "Excuse me, are you Xu Jingxing?"
Ok?
Did I run into an old classmate?
Xu Jingxing also looked at her face carefully, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't remember her at all!
"Who are you?" Xu Jingxing asked in return.
The girl didn't answer. Instead, she looked up at Xu Jingxing's head and asked, "Is that you in GG taking wedding photos with Fan Bingbing?"
Xu Jingxing then noticed that there was also a GG screen hanging above his head behind him.
The video above is playing on a loop of himself and Fan Bingbing's wedding photos.
As luck would have it, right after I asked the question, a close-up of Xu Jingxing's face appeared on the screen.
After successfully matching the mole on Xu Jingxing's left cheek, the girl excitedly shouted to her friend who was still watching from the sidelines:
"That's him! Come quick!"
The girl excitedly stomped her feet, "I told you, coming to the capital means you can see celebrities!"
The other girls also crowded around Xu Jingxing, their eyes filled with the novelty of seeing a celebrity for the first time.
"Could you sign your name for us? We're all students who just finished the college entrance exam. We want to show it off to our classmates when we get back."
"Yes, yes, your wedding photos with Fan Bingbing are so beautiful, you look so well-matched!"
"You remind me of the male lead in some idol drama!"
Upon hearing about the college entrance examination, Xu Jingxing suddenly remembered that Mao Xiaotong had also finished her exam. Why hadn't he heard from her these past few days? He had even told her to call him after her exam.
But now was clearly not the time to think about that, as the voices of several girls drew the attention of everyone in the car.
Several elderly people, who were obviously tourists in Beijing, also gathered around.
He was carrying various local specialties from the capital, clearly having just finished a major shopping spree.
"Old Wang, Old Shen, come and see the celebrities!"
"Which celebrity?"
"That Fan Bingbing."
"What Fan Bingbing? She's her husband! A man!"
"What? Fan Bingbing got married?"
"Didn't you see their wedding photos are displayed on the screen?"
"..."
What does this even mean?!
That's how rumors start!
Xu Jingxing suddenly remembered a particularly outrageous rumor from his past life.
It's about how, during the year of the natural disaster, Zhou Jielun flew to the disaster area in his private plane to steal instant noodles to eat.
The worst part is that some people actually believed it!
He now strongly suspects that during the nationwide disaster relief efforts, elderly people happened to see a video of Jason Chou endorsing instant noodles playing on a screen in the subway, which is how the video spread.
At that moment, the woman had already raised her phone to record a video.
"Look everyone, that's Fan Bingbing's husband! Do you know Fan Bingbing? She's the one who played the maid in 'My Fair Princess'!"
But the phone was pointed at a man next to Xu Jingxing.
"Auntie, you've taken the wrong picture, it's not me!"
The guy who was photographed quickly dodged away.
"Oh dear, I don't know which one it is either, but I'll take pictures of them all for you!"
As she spoke, the woman raised her phone high and started taking pictures of the entire carriage.
Seriously, I don't know who's taking these pictures!
"Wait a minute!" An old man suddenly shouted from behind.
Xu Jingxing felt as if he had seen a savior. Who was this old man who was going to speak up for justice?
"I know this young man!"
The old man pointed at Xu Jingxing, "He's in the TV series I watched, 'Slashing the Japanese with the Big Sword'!"
"I've never seen this TV series before. Which channel airs it?" the older woman asked.
"It wasn't a TV station; I bought the DVDs," the old man said proudly. "That DVD player was a gift from my son. You know, as soon as he earns money, he says he wants to give it to me as a gift. I told him no, but he insisted on buying it for me. Can you believe it!"
The elderly people next to them immediately cast disdainful glances their way.
Who asked you about DVDs!
An older woman nearby couldn't stand it anymore and stopped the old man from showing off, asking, "Old Liu, who is this young man playing?"
"He played the knife!"
Everyone: "??????"
Yes, that's right, Xu Jingxing did indeed play the role of that knife.
During his summer vacation during his freshman year of college, Xu Jingxing filmed this anti-Japanese war drama. In the drama, he played a knife that could transform into human form. It would grow five centimeters longer for every Japanese soldier it cut down, and in the final scene, it was fixed as a 40-meter-long cleaver.
Then they started hacking at the Japanese soldiers.
I heard at the time that it was going to be broadcast on satellite TV, but it was rejected because it was too sensational. However, it was made into pirated DVDs and circulated in various video stores.
Xu Jingxing felt a little smug. Who said that the past two years were a waste of time? He still has his own fans!
Fortunately, the subway finally arrived at Xidan Station. There were quite a few people getting on and off at this major transfer station. Following the crowd, Xu Jingxing managed to shake off the group.
I had just breathed a sigh of relief when the phone rang; it was a number from the capital city.
"Feed?" The call was answered.
"Hello Mr. Xu, I'm Zhao, an editor at Sina Blog. I'd like to invite you to register for our Sina Blog. If you're interested, we'll provide you with an invitation code, and then..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Jingxing hung up the phone.
How come there were telecom frauds in 2005? That's a bit ahead of its time!
