My System Forces Me to Live off Women

Chapter 496 - 331: Gulinazha (3)

Second row, quite close to the front.

Xu Ning suddenly asked, "Among the celebrities here this time, is there anyone you want an autograph from, Peifeng?"

Li Peifeng shook his head, "I’m not into celebrities, and I don’t usually watch dramas. I only occasionally watch American TV shows to learn English."

This was true; aside from writing, he would spend his time reading, and any extra time was devoted to the girl by his side. He had neither the time nor the interest for other leisure activities.

Xu Ning glanced at Li Peifeng’s face, and suddenly chuckled to herself, "I attended the company’s annual gala last time too. Because of collaborations with some male celebrities, I got to meet them up close. None of them have a face like yours... Have you ever thought of debuting as a singer or actor?"

"Never thought about it."

Li Peifeng casually replied, "Sister Xu, I told you, I’m quite shy."

"I don’t believe it."

Xu Ning rolled her eyes and ignored him, then picked up her phone to record the celebrities’ rehearsals on stage.

Li Peifeng quietly left the crowd and sat in his seat. He had originally wanted to do some writing, but the music from the stage was so loud that he couldn’t concentrate. He decided to head backstage, looking for a quiet room where he could be creative without disturbance.

Even though it was almost time to rehearse on stage, Li Peifeng had already memorized his speech, merely a few hundred words, perfectly. Going on stage to familiarize himself with the environment would be quick, and he intended to make full use of the one and a half hours he had left.

For a dedicated online fiction writer, not writing while in the bathroom is a crime!

"1123... What’s this room for?"

Li Peifeng tentatively knocked on the door. No one answered, so he gently twisted the knob and pushed inward, but it didn’t budge. A female voice came from inside.

"Who is it?"

Someone’s there? Why didn’t I hear anything when I knocked?!

"Sorry."

Li Peifeng grinned and replied, then moved on to check other rooms. Some were locked, while others were open but occupied by staff. He noticed a few familiar male and female celebrities.

But Li Peifeng had no intention of joining in the excitement. He truly had no interest in celebrities. Even if the Four Heavenly Kings or the Four Little Flowers were here, he would just look out of curiosity without any desire for a photo or autograph. Fortunately, there were not many new popular celebrities invited to this event. Otherwise, he might not even recognize them.

"I just want to find an empty room to write, why is it so hard?"

The music from the stage was still booming loudly even in the backstage corridors, making Li Peifeng a bit frustrated. After wandering unsuccessfully, he unconsciously returned to room 1123.

At this moment, the door happened to open. A gracefully beautiful female celebrity walked out in high heels, wearing a blue and white gradient dress. The dress trailed the ground, its special material shimmering, making this plain-looking formal dress appear elegant and otherworldly. The off-shoulder design cleverly showcased the female celebrity’s perfect collarbones and two snow-white crescents.

Following behind her were three assistant-like women, two holding bags and water, while one raised the dress slightly to avoid it dragging. The four of them walked out of the room together.

"Who is that?"

Out of curiosity, Li Peifeng instinctively paused to take a look. The female celebrity appeared to have a charmingly smooth and flawless oval face. Her delicate, long hair framed her narrow, cheerful forehead like waves. Her thick eyebrows and alluring eyes gave her a sultry look, as if containing emotion even when meeting anyone’s gaze. The sharp yet rounded shape of her eyes made them appear clear, gentle, and harmless, offsetting the haughtiness that might otherwise come from her prominent features.

Overall, this celebrity had extravagant facial features and distinctly defined contours, indicating some Western lineage. Yet, she carried a delicate, princess-like dignity, a harmonious unity of contrasting qualities, making her a stunning beauty.

"Looks familiar, what’s her name again? Seems like it’s a four-character name. I heard someone mention it just now. Guli Naza, Guli Nazha, or was it Malzahar?"

Li Peifeng didn’t look carefully, and the thought quickly passed as he diverted his attention from the celebrity, disregarding the complex fragrance emanating from her. He suppressed his [sharp sense of smell], and instinctively glanced into room 1123.

It was empty, but he guessed entering might not be allowed.

The four who had just come out naturally noticed the tall man by the door, gave him a first glance, then a second, a third, a fourth... Guli Nazha stopped two meters in front of Li Peifeng and spoke, "Hey, were you the one who opened the door just now?"

Her voice was sweet and soft, matching her appearance.

Li Peifeng was slightly taken aback, nodded and said, "Sorry for disturbing you. I didn’t know anyone was inside."

Guli Nazha made an "Oh" sound, then turned to the older woman beside her and said softly, "Sister Shang, is this some new rising star?"

Guli Nazha had immediately assumed Li Peifeng was a fellow celebrity.

"I’ve never seen him..." The woman addressed as Sister Shang looked carefully at Li Peifeng and uncertainly said, "We know everyone on the program list, but with his looks, he shouldn’t be an amateur or a staff member. Just ask him directly."

Indeed, when did such a good-looking male artist appear in the industry? It wouldn’t make sense for him to be unknown. With that face alone, he could easily be trending if he appeared on screen.
