Wang Shu searched his mind several times but found no information about this girl, so he was sure he didn't know her.
'Could she be a paparazzo?'
Wang Shu immediately thought of this possibility, as he was now considered a public figure with some influence.
"Wang... Wang Shu!!!"
When Xiao Chui saw that Wang Shu was the one who opened the door, she was stunned.
Why was Wang Shu opening the door? And it was Wang Shu who sang "The Ordinary Road"!
She was a variety show fan, and her favorite show was Hunan Satellite TV's "Weekly Good Voice."
She watched every episode from start to finish and never expected to meet the champion of this season, Wang Shu, in real life.
"Are you... Gou Lan Ting Qu Da Da?"
After a moment of reaction, Xiao Chui looked at Wang Shu and asked tentatively in disbelief.
"How do you know that?"
Wang Shu was even more surprised when he heard her mention his pen name.
Had paparazzi work become so meticulous now? Not only could they find his address, but they could also dig up his pen name?
"I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Xiao Chui!"
Seeing the look of surprise on Wang Shu's face, Xiao Chui quickly explained.
"Xiao Chui? You're Xiao Chui?"
When Wang Shu heard the name, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. After a moment, he realized.
His editor's name was Xiao Chui!
But shouldn't Xiao Chui be a burly man? How could she be a loli girl, one meter fifty tall, with twin ponytails?
"Yes, Gou Lan Da Da! Is there a problem?"
Xiao Chui blinked and looked at Wang Shu with confusion.
"No, nothing. Why are you looking for me all of a sudden?"
Wang Shu was also bewildered by his editor's sudden visit. He had even forgotten that he was only wearing a large pair of briefs.
"Um, perhaps you should put on some clothes before we talk? I'm afraid it wouldn't be good if you were photographed."
Xiao Chui glanced at Wang Shu's lower half, her face blushing, and reminded him cautiously.
After all, Wang Shu was a celebrity now. If someone with ill intentions took pictures and posted them online, it could have a significant impact on his future.
At Xiao Chui's reminder, Wang Shu finally realized his predicament. However, he turned around and went back into the room to get dressed, his face neither red nor pale.
Then he invited Xiao Chui into the house.
"Gou Lan Da Da, I came to thank you. Because of your book 'Douluo World,' I not only got a permanent position but also became an associate editor! So, I'd like to treat you to a meal to express my gratitude!"
Inside the house, Xiao Chui looked at Wang Shu with a hint of shyness, her small hands clasped in front of her, unsure of what to do.
After all, she was facing not only a bestselling author but also her favorite singer. She had cried quite a bit for Wang Shu when he fainted on stage.
"Well, I accept!"
Wang Shu smiled and replied, looking at the shy young girl in front of him.
He understood Xiao Chui's state perfectly. After all, she had just graduated, had not yet experienced the harshness of society, and still carried the innocence of campus life.
"Really? Then let's go now! The company only gave me a day off!"
Xiao Chui said with great surprise upon hearing Wang Shu's immediate agreement, her eyes full of joy.
When she discovered that Wang Shu and Gou Lan Da Da were the same person, she had worried that Wang Shu might refuse her invitation. After all, why would a celebrity have a meal with her?
But she never expected Wang Shu to agree without even thinking, which was beyond her expectation.
"So early? Are you planning to treat me to breakfast?"
Wang Shu glanced at the time, it was seven in the morning, and he teased the twin-tailed girl in front of him.
"Ah? No... Then should we go at noon?"
Xiao Chui also realized that it was still morning, and there was no reason to invite someone to eat at this hour. Thinking of this, her ears turned red.
"Grumble..."
Just as they finished speaking, an untimely sound echoed, and the entire air fell silent.
"It's good timing, I was making breakfast. You can try my cooking!"
Wang Shu glanced at Xiao Chui, who had buried her head in her chest, with a half-smile. He got up and walked towards the kitchen as he spoke.
He hadn't expected his editor to be such a cute loli with a baby face and a large bust. Things were starting to get interesting.
Soon, Wang Shu placed two bowls of lean pork congee on the table.
Xiao Chui, who was sitting on the sofa, was attracted by the aroma of the lean pork congee. She looked at Wang Shu with a shocked expression. This man was too amazing.
His books were popular, his songs were popular, and now his cooking was so fragrant. A bowl of lean pork congee could produce such a rich aroma.
"Try it quickly!"
Wang Shu gestured. Xiao Chui eagerly picked up the bowl of lean pork congee and took a small sip.
"So! Fragrant!"
As the congee entered her mouth, only these three words could describe Xiao Chui's feelings. She had never tasted such delicious congee before.
The lean pork congee was neither too salty nor too bland. The rice grains were filled with a savory aroma of meat, and the lean pork in the congee was tender, not tough.
After swallowing the first mouthful, Xiao Chui could no longer maintain her composure and began to eat ravenously. Soon, the bowl of congee was gone.
After all, she had rushed to catch a flight that morning and hadn't had breakfast, so she was starving. She couldn't afford to be delicate now.
"There's more in the pot. I'll serve you."
Just as Wang Shu took a small sip of the congee he had just poured, he noticed that Xiao Chui's bowl was already empty. He spoke up.
Upon hearing that there was more in the pot, Xiao Chui quickly handed her bowl to Wang Shu, looking at him with expectant and shy eyes.
Wang Shu was charmed by the girl's simple and silly demeanor and happily went to serve Xiao Chui more congee.
Afterward, Xiao Chui ate the entire pot of lean pork congee before reluctantly putting down her bowl.
After eating her fill, Xiao Chui immediately felt a wave of sleepiness and fell asleep on the sofa.
When she woke up again, she found herself lying in bed with a blanket covering her.
Her shoes were the only thing removed; otherwise, nothing else had been touched.
As she was about to stretch comfortably, she noticed that the sky outside had already darkened.
She immediately got out of bed, blaming herself for oversleeping and thus delaying something important!
After getting up, Xiao Chui saw Wang Shu typing in the living room and walked straight up to him.
"Um, let's go out for dinner!"
Xiao Chui said to Wang Shu with some embarrassment. She had originally come to treat Wang Shu to a meal, but she had slept through it.
