The School Beauty's Super Rogue-Chapter 1047 - 1044: Fly

Someone you admire?

The cheers on site grew louder.

What do fans following the entertainment industry love the most?

Isn’t it just gossip and all sorts of messy stuff?

The host’s face also flashed a hint of brightness.

Someone you admire? Doesn’t that mean boyfriend?

Could it be that a big piece of news is going to happen today?

She continued to ask, "What specifically do you mean by someone you admire?"

Qiao Jiaying maintained a sweet smile, "It’s just the literal meaning. Besides, you promised to ask only one question."

The host felt a bit frustrated, should’ve known better not to ask that way!

The gossip on hand seemed hard to dig out?

But soon, she had a clever idea and handed the microphone to Qin Hao, "Mr. Qin, who is Qiao Jiaying to you?"

Qin Hao gracefully took the microphone and said with a smile, "Jiaying and I are old friends, we admire and learn from each other, you can consider us as confidants."

"Wow, is this the legendary intimate confidant?" The host’s voice was a bit excited, "So, Mr. Qin, to what extent is your confidant relationship?"

Qin Hao heard the ambiguity in the question and replied calmly, "To me, a confidant is very simple. For example, if I suddenly want to drink at three in the morning, and someone is willing to join me, that’s a confidant."

"What an apt metaphor." The host nodded, "Then, how is the Celestial Empress’s drinking capacity?"

Qin Hao gave a thumbs-up, "A heroine among women."

Qiao Jiaying was still smiling, but her eyes showed a touch of shyness.

The gentleman actually praised me, I’m so happy!

The host was in the entertainment industry and wasn’t very familiar with Qin Hao, but she vaguely remembered his face.

After all, back then, it was impossible not to remember with all the screens bombarding from the internet and television.

She thought Qin Hao was easy to talk to, so she asked all sorts of questions.

"Mr. Qin Hao, after the world championship last time, your presence completely disappeared, could you explain why?"

Qin Hao: "After the last event, I had health issues and couldn’t participate in official sports activities." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Is that so, what a pity, but you look very spirited now?"

"Some injuries aren’t visible on the surface. My body isn’t fit for high-intensity competitions anymore, so I’m considering retiring."

There was no helping it, to help the host smooth things over, Qin Hao had to tell a white lie.

As soon as he said that, the atmosphere cooled down considerably.

It’s not that people’s interest waned, but they were all indulging in the sorrowful imagination.

A national hero, whose career ended due to injuries.

What a tragic and lamentable story!

"Such a pity..." The host was also a bit saddened.

Qin Hao smiled, "There’s no need to pity, I have confidence in my teammates. I know even if I’m not around, they will carry on with my spirit. I think it won’t be long before everyone hears about Huaxia people winning gold medals again."

The inspiring words lifted the spirits of the people on site once more.

The host had some admiration for Qin Hao, managing to change people’s emotions twice with just a few words.

Brother, are you sure you don’t want to become a psychologist?

"Alright, time’s up, we should head into the venue." Qin Hao politely returned the microphone, held Qiao Jiaying’s small hand, nodded to the host, and walked slowly into the venue.

The host looked at the two’s backs, feeling a bit emotional, "Upon a closer look, they are really well-matched, aren’t they just like a Golden Boy and Jade Girl!"

...

When Qin Hao and Qiao Jiaying entered the venue, it was already a sea of people inside.

In the splendidly decorated hall, dozens of wine tables were set. Exquisite dishes were set on the tables, all meant for the reception of distinguished guests.

Around the hall, there were floral baskets and balloons as decorative pieces to enhance the ambiance.

Qin Hao realized, this charity gala was indeed sincere, and it seemed it wasn’t just a money pit. When the time came, he could appropriately donate a bit.

As the two entered, Qin Hao could clearly feel many gazes directed at them.

Half of these gazes were on Qiao Jiaying, and the other half were on him.

There was curiosity and surprise, but mostly hostility.

Qin Hao let out a wry smile, realizing an astonishing fact that most of the men in the venue were somewhat displeased with him.

Is this the charm of the Celestial Empress?

Qin Hao was internally smiling wryly when Qiao Jiaying pulled him toward the front of the hall, "Sir, please sit at that table."

"Alright." Qin Hao followed Qiao Jiaying to a table near the stage.

Coincidentally, Zhou Chengcheng was also sitting there.

Upon seeing the two approaching, his expression quickly twisted.

Since there were not many reporters around, he didn’t need to maintain his persona anymore.

"Sir, you sit down first, I have to go backstage to prepare..." Qiao Jiaying asked.

"Alright." Qin Hao nodded with a smile, watching Qiao Jiaying leave.

"Hey." Zhou Chengcheng let out a cold laugh, casting a murderous look.

Qin Hao pretended not to notice and took a sip of red wine.

"Country bumpkin!" Zhou Chengcheng was even more disdainful when he saw this. The people at the table hadn’t arrived yet, and Qin Hao was already eager to drink and eat, what a disgrace.

Qin Hao seemed to have heard nothing, gently swirling the wine, even furrowing his brows.

"Why are you furrowing your brows?" Zhou Chengcheng couldn’t help but ask as Qin Hao’s exaggerated expression was too much.

Qin Hao put down the wine glass, sighed, and said, "Chateau Lafite’s vintage wine, it’s good wine, but such a poor environment diminishes the enjoyment."

"Poor environment?" Zhou Chengcheng didn’t quite understand for a moment.

Qin Hao continued to sigh, "There’s a fly buzzing around you, how can you enjoy drinking?"

"..." Zhou Chengcheng instantly realized why and his face turned very unsightly, "Are you calling me a fly?"

"I didn’t call you that." Qin Hao looked completely puzzled, "Or do you enjoy identifying yourself as a fly?"

"You bastard!" Zhou Chengcheng slammed the table suddenly.

Bang!

The sound was loud, and people nearby all looked over.

Zhou Chengcheng glared at Qin Hao with a murderous look, wanting to rip his head off if possible.

But he didn’t do so because a handsome middle-aged man walked over.

"Young Master Zhou, long time no see!" The middle-aged man was there to greet him.

"Wang Dekai, you look more handsome than before." Zhou Chengcheng deliberately spoke loudly, even giving a provocative glance toward Qin Hao.

See, even Wang Dekai came to greet me!

"Thank you, Young Master Zhou, for the compliment!" Wang Dekai said somewhat excitedly, "Young Master Zhou, I’m planning to shoot a new movie, a major production. I wonder if you’re interested in a cameo?"

"Haha, since even Emperor Wang says so, how can I refuse?" Zhou Chengcheng replied with some arrogance.

"Then thank Young Master Zhou very much!"

After Wang Dekai left, Zhou Kankan looked at Qin Hao with a face full of smugness, his eyes saying: Country bumpkin, did you see, even Wang Dekai came to greet me!
