Chapter 262 –  “Are you a transmigrator?” (3)

Gu Shao had the chauffeur take Gu Xi to CYC Center and he, himself, also took off shortly after Gu Xi was on her way.

He was also heading over to CYC.

The difference was that CYC wasn’t heading to the competition venue but the control room of the competition, where the entire event would be broadcasted live.

Seeing the arrival of Gu Shao, the person in charge of the competition walked up to him cautiously and handed a document over to him.

“Boss Gu, this is the agenda for today’s competition and the information on each team.” Having said that, the person in charge took a look at the time and added, “We are still 45 minutes away from the start of the event. All the tams are getting ready right now and everything is proceeding normally.”

As he talked, the person in charge glanced over at Gu Shao one more time and couldn’t help but added, “In addition, the ‘Smart Companion’ team drafted 67thposition.”

Even though Tianchuang Competition was a major event that NTN used to look for talents and, this being the first year of the event, it made sense that Gu Shao wanted to be there in person.

That being said, she couldn’t shake the feeling that Gu Shao was more there for his daughter.

As Gu Shao had explicated mentioned previously to treat everything as normal and that his daughter would not need any special treatment, the person in charge was very subtle in the way she talked.

Having heard that, Gu Shao glanced over at the person in charge nonchalantly and didn’t say anything. He did, however, committed Gu Xi’s order to memory.

Over on the other side, Gu Xi had arrived at the venue.

And she saw a familiar shape from afar.

“Sheng Xiuyan?” Gu Xi lifted her brows in surprise when she saw Sheng Xiuyan sitting nonchalantly on the other end with a don’t-bug-me look. So she did not mishear that day before.

She walked over to Sheng Xiuyan and greeted him. “What a coincidence. You signed up for the Tianchuang Competition too?”

This was, after all, a competition geared toward adults and professionals. Even though the rules had changed a little later on, but there still weren’t very many minor competitors.

Gu Xi didn’t think that Sheng Xiuyan, too, would be in this competition.

Seeing Gu Xi approached him, the cool look on Sheng Xiuyan froze on his face.

He had wanted to come with that headgear but it was just too ugly. So ugly that he couldn’t even stand it himself. After some hesitation, he finally gave up on it.

More importantly, Gu Yanlin could still recognize him in that disguise.

Sheng Xiuyan had no choice but to give up on that plan and just force himself to show up.

“Uh, yes. Just for the fun of it.” Sheng Xiuyan diverted his look and mumbled. In his mind, he was trying to quickly come up with how to break it to Gu Xi that they were actually on the same team.

“Were you here yesterday too?” asked Gu Xi.

She had meant to ask him that yesterday but after the discussion with [AAA] and Lin in the chatgroup, she had forgotten about it.

Sheng Xiuyan, “……” Recalling how stupid he looked the day before, he didn’t really want to answer that question.

At this time, Gu Yanlin, too, had arrived following Gu Xi.

And located Sheng Xiuyan.

“Hey, Sheng Xiuyan, why did you run away yesterday?” said Gu Yanlin as he walked over.

He happened to turn his head and looked straight at Gu Xi the very next second.

“Xixi?

“What are you doing here?” He was both happy and surprised when he saw Gu Xi.

“Did you come with Second Uncle?” He had heard rumors in the past that Tianchuang Competition was actually heavily invested by NTN. As such, he speculated that Gu Xi had mostly likely come with Gu Shao.

“No.” Gu Xi shook her head at Gu Yanlin and smiled. “I’m in the competition.”

Before Gu Yanlin could feel surprised, Gu Xi, too, asked him back, “You are in the competition as well, Big Brother?”

Gu Xi never would have imagined that she would run into two familiar faces in one competition.

Was this world really small or that this Tianchuang Competition was really so popular that it was drawing people from all over?
