[BL] Debut in Interstellar After Retiring as Grim Reaper

Chapter 13: Attempt To Attack

"What's going on here?"

It was Xu Xinyi.

The crowd immediately made way for her as she strode herself towards them. She frowned when she saw Chen Wei.

"I said what's going on here?" She repeated using the authoritative voice she has which instantly made the crowd shut up in fear. But these expressions just level up her irritation that she couldn't help but start bombarding them.

"And why are you gathering here? What's this? Surrounding someone? Chen Wei, what are you thinking again? I think you should stop your stupid acts today." Xu Xinyi immediately started scolding Chen Wei because right from she saw him in front and looking at his arrogant brows again, she knew that he was bullying someone. Like what he always did actually.

Chen Wei instantly burst out with anger. "I'm not stupid! Why are you saying that to me when I passed the audition?!" He sneered and pointed at Qin An directly. "You should say that to someone who got a red card, right? If I were him, I'd only accept having not passed for voting rather than receiving a direct elimination."

Chen Wei taunted Qin An. His wayward expression tells that he really looks down on the young man. He was also expecting that Xu Xinyi will side with him because she clearly disdained him earlier. But what happened next is the opposite of what he thought.

"Oh." Xu Xinyi's brow raise. "So you're getting arrogant because you passed? Don't think too highly of yourself after you receive votes. 150 votes over 200, it was high... but, we already knew why they voted for you, right?"

"Y-You!"

Chen Wei's face blush in anger and embarrassment. It's true. He got 150 votes because he's the younger brother of the President of Dream Star. Even if he's most likely still passing, getting that high votes is really too much and too deliberate.

He frowned. He should have calculated the number of his votes instead.

"Chen Wei, don't think too highly of yourself. Enough with those stupid thoughts. You have to behave yourself or your brother will speak to you."

Chen Wei was even angrier. "That's it! Why do you keep on mentioning my brother? You're just being arrogant because you seduced my brother! What are you if you're not with him?!"

Chen Wei is really pissed this time that he didn't notice his friends getting away from him when they notice Xu Xinyi's anger. They quickly try minimizing their presence in case the devil woman would vent her anger to them especially when Chen Wei shouted those words.

Asking Xu Xinyi on that sensitive topic can really offend the female devil!

Is Chen Wei nuts?! How dare he question her? Xu Xinyi seduced the president Chen Jiang? That's impossible! Chen Jiang is always known other than being the capable president but also because he's a die-hard fan of hers! He had been following Xu Xinyi ever since she was just a trainee. Xu Xinyi didn't even allow him to spend too much for her, especially for the votes later on. She wanted to win and debut without anything from his help.

So, how could she 'seduce' him?! Wasn't it supposed to be the opposite? Chen Jiang worked so hard too to become the man that anyone envies and wanted to catch her attention back then, so who seduced whom?

And as expected, Xu Xinyi's face turned black. "Heh? What am I?" Her voice sounds so menacing that Chen Wei's arrogance quickly reduces and his face turns pale.

"I-I—"

"That's it." Xu Xinyi exhales a loud breath and looks at everyone. "What are you still doing here?! For all who pass, quickly go inside! As for those who were not, you can leave immediately!"

"Yes!" Everyone was quick to disperse and Qin An was grabbed by Li Bai away from them.

Xu Xinyi looked at the young man's back. Her eyes flash in a second before she looks away and turns as if nothing happened.

"Here, Brother Qin. You can take a rest here in my apartment. Don't worry about using my things. It's all clean because I got to this place not long ago and haven't used it much. You can rest assured." Li Bai happily tours him around the house. Qin An just casually looks at his surroundings before turning back to the latter.

Li Bai's face became nervous again. Qin An sigh in his heart. Even though he's the real older, why is this kid so afraid of him all the time? He was 'younger', right? And almost no one was afraid of him anymore, especially at the audition earlier. Why did this kid not change?

Was he supposed to get angry or even regret that he asked someone like him?

"Brother Qin, please don't worry about what happened. It's alright. We can still have a chance, okay? If you're not comfortable about taking track as an idol or actor, why don't we try becoming a model instead? That was much easier than that, right? I think you'll be very suitable for that!" Li Bai happily recommended it.

He pauses for a second before saying his request. "I want to look for more films and performances of other people."

"Oh? O-Okay!" Li Bai nodded at him. Since Qin An doesn't have mental power, he cannot enter his brain frequently because he cannot control it too much. He was just lucky earlier to see his basic information but aside from that, he was having a hard time connecting with his brain again.

After all, a person has to connect his mental power before entering. It was like the password required, and unfortunately, that was what he's lacking.

Fortunately, Interstellar has high technology, so they have alternatives to use for surfing the internet. Using the virtual cabin that he used earlier, it can be connected on his nerves inside his brain to connect to the virtual world. Although still had restrictions, it was enough for him to surf films and other stuff.

"Brother Qin, don't bury yourself in the internet too much. You also have to rest and eat, okay?" Li Bai was like a worried hen in front of him, constantly dangling and chatting without a pause.

And because he was really guilty, he was a rare patient to listen to his nagging until it was Li Bai himself who got tired of chattering.

"Okay. By the way, Brother Qin. I still have something to attend to first. I'll take my leave."

"Well, thank you."

Li Bai grins. "Okay! I'll go ahead." Then he went out.

After resting for a few minutes, Qin An quickly immersed himself in the virtual films.

He was busy constantly watching and observing that he didn't know he's on hot search in StarNet.
