The lovers were affectionate for a while, until Gu Caiwei felt that her breathing was not smooth, and they reluctantly separated.
"Then I will tell my mother tomorrow that I am going to do things as a trainee."
Lin Yi thought about it and realized that in his previous life, it was not so easy to get past Ms. Gu Changge's level, so he took a precaution:
"Aunt Gu may have her own opinions, so you'd better be mentally prepared."
Gu Caiwei was surprised: "Do you mean that my mother will object? Why do you think so? She has no objection to the two of us being together."
Lin Yi couldn't say he was speaking from experience: "Well... It's just a guess. I mean you'd better think carefully about how to convince her."
Gu Caiwei felt that he was unfounded because his mother was obviously so good.
She didn't refute but didn't take it seriously. She lowered her head and fiddled with Lin Yi's fingers, and suddenly thought:
"By the way, Lin Yi, I've wanted to ask you for a long time. Why do you seem to have known that we would meet Peng Yuchen? Did you take me there on purpose that day?"
For people who live together day and night, it is difficult to hide many clues.
Lin Yi casually found an excuse for himself: "I know for sure that she will appear there that day, because I have a relative who is in this industry."
"She was shocked when she saw a photo of you once. She predicted that you would have a future and strongly suggested that I facilitate this meeting."
"Peng Yuchen and I didn't know each other before. Sure enough, she took a liking to you at first sight, which shows that professionals can spot your potential."
It can be said that Lin Yi's lie was full of mistakes. The reason why he told it so hastily was because Gu Caiwei was not a sensitive and suspicious character.
Her focus was decisively diverted: "When did you take my photo? Show it to me."
Gu Caiwei actually wanted to ask, "What do you mean when you show my photos to your relatives?", but she was embarrassed to say it.
Of course, Lin Yi denied that he took the photo secretly when she wasn't paying attention. Gu Caiwei had no doubts. With their relationship, opportunities like this come up every day.
Lin Yi hesitated and felt relieved, but he ignored one thing.
Gu Caiwei likes Hu Nong out of trust in him, which may not be the case for others.
…
After Gu Caiwei returned home, she finally told Ms. Gu Changge everything about Peng Yuchen.
"Xiaowei, you just told me what happened on National Day today. Did you mean that you wanted to agree to this Peng Yuchen to become a so-called trainee?"
"Yes, Mom, I have been thinking about it for a long time."
Gu Changge could still keep his composure, but his attitude was already very serious: "What did you think about it?"
"I just thought, singing and dancing are what I like to do. Now that I have the opportunity to turn it into my career, why not? Besides, I don't seem to be good at anything else."
"Xiaowei, your idea is too wishful thinking. Even if I don't understand what a trainee is, just by hearing the name, I know that I am still a million miles away from becoming a professional as you mentioned."
Gu Caiwei felt that her mother's attitude was unexpectedly tough, but she still argued with reason:
"Trainers are the preparation stage before debut and require comprehensive training in singing, dancing and other necessary artist qualities. President Peng said that she is very optimistic about me, otherwise she would not personally mobilize me twice."
Gu Changge's tone was calm but firm: "I don't agree."
"Xiaowei, you take it for granted. I guess she has said this to every so-called trainee."
"It just so happens that you mentioned training. In the past, I evaluated your kung fu as that of a three-legged cat. It seems that you are still not convinced. Can you be transformed after being trained by such a little-known small company?"
These words were already a bit serious, and Gu Caiwei couldn't help but protest loudly: "Mom, why don't you believe me? I asked a lot of questions before I came to you, but you have been hitting me since just now."
"I thought you would definitely support me." She said with a sense of grievance at the end.
Ms. Gu Changge slowed down her tone: "Xiaowei, I'm not trying to hit you, I'm thinking about you. It's your first time making such an important decision, so it's inevitable that you're not thinking carefully."
She paused for a moment: "You just said that you have asked many people, including Lin Yi. What did he tell you?"
"Yes. He said he supported me in pursuing my dreams and that I would definitely succeed in the future. I also told him that I would never leave him."
Ms. Gu Changge ignored her daughter's self-evident thoughts and shook her head in disappointment. This boy looked better than expected...
Be childish.
This matter was a bit tricky. My daughter had been thinking about it for so long before she discovered it. She lowered her head and thought about it for a while before continuing to ask:
"Xiaowei, do you really want to be an artist in the future?"
"Of course, I'm serious this time, mom." Gu Caiwei nodded solemnly.
Gu Changge gave his own suggestion: "How about this? We can consider going to a professional art school first and learn the skills in a down-to-earth manner for a few years."
"When there is a suitable opportunity in the future, I will enter this industry through a better platform. In fact, my mother also has some connections at the Shanghai Theater Academy..."
"There is obviously an opportunity now, why wait until later?" Gu Caiwei couldn't help but interrupt. It was particularly difficult for her to understand her mother's attitude today.
It is very rare for a daughter to directly contradict her in the life of mother and daughter. Ms. Gu Changge was not angry because of it, but she just thought she was too naive.
"The opportunities you see now are not necessarily real opportunities. Xiaowei, my mother will definitely support everything you want to do, but I want to protect you even more."
"Mom, I will be eighteen soon, and the law will recognize me as an adult. I know you do it for my own good, but I can't live under your protection forever."
This sentence made Gu Changge silent for a moment.
Yes, my daughter has really grown up.
She took a breath and reflected on the fact that part of her firm opposition was because she was not optimistic about this so-called opportunity, and part of it was because Xiaowei made her own decision without consulting her.
Ms. Gu Changge finally relented and said, "Let's do this, Xiaowei. Mom admits that her arbitrary decision just now was very preconceived."
"Give me Peng Yuchen's contact information, and let me meet with her for a while to see who has fallen in love with my daughter."
This request was reasonable and Gu Caiwei seemed to have no reason to refuse. She dug out Peng Yuchen's number from her address book and handed it to her mother.
Gu Changge pressed the dial directly.
"Dudu..."
The response from the other party was very fast. The bell only rang twice before being picked up. However, the sentence "You go out first" was heard first, and then the formal greeting was given:
"Classmate Xiao Gu, do you want to tell me the result of your consideration today?"
It's already dinner time, there shouldn't be any subordinates reporting work.
Ms. Gu Changge smiled inwardly. As expected of an industry insider, this little acting skill is easy to come by.
"Hello, Ms. Peng Yuchen. I am Gu Caiwei's mother. She just told me the whole story of meeting you. I think we need to communicate seriously."
Peng Yuchen, who was far away in Shanghai, was overjoyed. This showed that Gu Caiwei had made up his mind to agree, and this matter had taken a big step forward.
Although the other person's tone is unkind, it doesn't matter. She is absolutely sincere and has enough confidence.
"That's great. I've long wanted to experience Mother Gu's style."
