Chapter 16

Chapter 16

Unlike ordinary travel shows, "Special Forces in Action!" features guests randomly drawing their destinations each episode. The travel duration is two days and three nights, slightly longer than the typical college student's special forces trip, but still considered a mini-vacation for the guests.

The show combines live streaming with edited episodes, so the guests' performances are broadcast live, with highlights available later for those who missed the live stream.

Ever since Yi Tiantian learned about this trip, she had been eagerly counting down the days until her recording date.

And soon enough, that day arrived.

The guests gathered with their luggage at the designated location to board the bus.

Yi Tiantian, eager to join in, arrived early with her luggage at the recording site.

The bus was already equipped with a driver and a cameraman. Yi Tiantian hopped onto the bus, cheerfully greeting the driver and the camera lens.

"Hi! Hello, driver sir, everyone! I'm Yi Tiantian!"

Her voice was filled with joy, and the driver waved happily, his eyes suddenly sparkling with surprise. "So you're Yi Tiantian! My daughter really likes you. Can I take a photo with you to show her?"

This was the first time Yi Tiantian truly felt like a celebrity with fans in real life!

She excitedly replied, "Thank you for your daughter's support. Of course we can take a photo!"

With just a few words, Yi Tiantian warmed up the atmosphere.

She took a photo with the driver uncle before continuing into the bus.

Meanwhile, "Special Forces in Action!" had just started broadcasting, and many viewers had entered the live stream.

The previously quiet chat suddenly stirred when Yi Tiantian appeared.

[I'm here for Yi Tiantian! She's so sunny and cute!]

[Wow, this kid is really good to his fans. Can he come be my precious pet?]

[Back there, don't steal my precious pet! Yi Tiantian is mine!]

What Yi Tiantian didn't expect was that she wasn't the first one to arrive.

There was someone else on the bus.

A man sat upright in his seat, hands resting on the armrests, his fair skin and prominent joints catching her eye.

But what captivated Yi Tiantian most was his stunning face.

His lips curved slightly upward, and his deep-set eyes met hers.

Instantly, the chat exploded.

[Am I seeing things? How did such a big movie star appear so early?]

[Didn't the movie star plan to make a comeback through that drama? Why is he on a variety show now? I'm so confused...]

[Ah, never mind all that. I'm going to start drooling over the screen!]

Yi Tiantian screamed almost simultaneously with the chat.

"Oh my god, it's Fei Cheng! What is he doing here?!"

"Have I become so famous that I get to be with such a big shot?!"

"Yi Tiantian, you're really popular now. Be careful with your words and actions..."

Before Yi Tiantian could finish her inner scream, Fei Cheng spoke up.

"Hello, I'm Fei Cheng. You must be Yi Tiantian, right? Can I call you Tiantian?"

"Ahhhh! Even his voice is so handsome!"

Though screaming inside, Yi Tiantian maintained her composure on the outside.

After all, she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of the movie star.

"Yes, yes! Nice to meet you, Mr. Fei!"

Yi Tiantian didn't notice her blushing cheeks or Fei Cheng's light chuckle.

"Just call me Fei Cheng," he said with a smile.

Yi Tiantian immediately responded, "Brother Fei!"

Fei Cheng didn't correct her further, tacitly accepting the title.

Since Fei Cheng's appearance, the number of viewers in the live stream had surged, and the chat messages skyrocketed.

[Ahhh, Fei Cheng and Yi Tiantian together—this is a victory for us face fans!!]

[Wait, don't they look quite compatible?]

[Yi Tiantian's fans, stop riding his coattails, it's annoying.]

[Exactly, how can a newcomer like Yi Tiantian ride Fei Cheng's coattails!]

Fei Cheng's die-hard fans began attacking Yi Tiantian in the chat, but the two people on the bus were getting along well.

After greeting each other, Yi Tiantian sat down in the seat across the aisle from Fei Cheng.

Fei Cheng patted the empty seat next to him. "Come sit here. We can enjoy the scenery together later."

Yi Tiantian's eyes widened in surprise, and without hesitation, she switched seats to sit next to Fei Cheng.

Sure enough, this scene brought another wave of comments.

[You fans keep talking. When Fei Cheng tries to make friends, you accuse him of using others. Why don't you just isolate him in the variety show? That would make you happy, right!]

[And I suggest everyone get to know Yi Tiantian. She really is a great artist...]

After the storm of comments passed, the two chatted for a while. Then two more people boarded the bus.

Before they could hear their voices, they saw the two figures approaching. Outside the bus, laughter and conversation could be heard.

The female voice was sweet and charming: "I'm so excited."

The male voice was steadier: "I wonder which destination we'll draw."

Yi Tiantian's eyes immediately lit up like a small animal that had caught a scent of food. Her back straightened, filled with curiosity.

"It's the smell of gossip!!"

"Good gossip, good gossip, bring it to me now!"

Fei Cheng, sitting beside her, observed her with a smile on his face. Perhaps influenced by her curious mood, even Fei Cheng, who usually didn't care much about gossip, felt a bit intrigued.

Soon, a man and a woman boarded the bus.

The man was Li You, tall and athletic, with a face like a puppy, making him one of the top idols of the current generation.

The woman was Shi Zhongzhong, tall and graceful, with a youthful appearance, matching Li You as a top idol.

They were often paired together, and fans often suspected if they were secretly dating, given how similar they looked.

Despite the rumors swirling around them, neither of them had ever confirmed anything.

In other words, the audience still didn't know if they were a couple.

Just as the two were happily preparing to greet Yi Tiantian and Fei Cheng, a clear male voice rang out.

"Laughing so happily!"

"Do these two even know they're long-lost siblings?"
