The other guests were excited to hear this sudden grace from the director. Compared to the modest roadside stalls, eating in this luxurious restaurant was like heaven on earth. Besides, they were all celebrities, of course they have some skills to impress others, so this turn of event was very beneficial for them.
And as for the members of the boy group, they knew this was a perfect platform to show off their progress after the survival show ended.
They started taking turns performing.
Tuya and Instructor Li sang a classic song called “Spice Girls & Love Songs”, which received unanimous praise from everyone.
Anran and Li Xu’an performed a recent idol song. Their performance wasn’t anything special, but everyone agreed on saving their dignity so they were given a pass.
When it was Shen Xingchen’s turn, he looked excited.
Shen Xingchen said: “I don’t have any special talent, I will perform a backflip for everyone!”
“
”
Everyone laughed.
Shen Xingchen, this monkey boy, did a few backflips. Not to mention, his movements were chic and neat, very beautiful, and easily gained approval from everyone.
As everyone finished their own performance, the director finally let them sit around a big table to enjoy dinner. After the meal, everyone was more leisurely and spread out, looking at the breathtaking nighttime scenery or wandering around.
Suddenly, Instructor Li had a flash of inspiration. He looked at the winning team with an amused smile and proposed an after-dinner show. “Fu-ge, Suisui, you two have watched us all perform. Why don’t you show us some unique skills in return?”
Tuya got excited after hearing this, and quickly echoed: “Yes, yes, I agree. Old Fu, you can’t refuse us~”
Fu Jinxiao had a good relationship with both mentors. He curled his lips into a small smile and teasingly said, “Even eating a dinner this good can’t stop you two from wanting to watch a show?”
Instructor Li laughed heartily, “It’s not just us who want to see it, the audience also wants to see it!”
Everyone’s enthusiasm was very high, and it was not easy to refuse. Shen Xingsui was thinking of what he could showcase. If he botched this one, he would’ve become a laughingstock for the rest of the show.
Fu Jinxiao glanced at the troubled-looking youth beside him, and put down his chopsticks: “Alright, I agree.”
Tuya teased him with a good-natured smile, “Ohh~ such a rare occurrence. What does Instructor Fu want to show us?”
“I have learned some traditional Chinese medical skills.” Fu Jinxiao decided to do the absurd talent route. He looked all serious and said to them, “Do you want me to test your pulse?”
The other guests were surprised, so of course they all nodded and agreed.
The audience were also quite shocked. The barrage, once again, was filled to the brim:
[Fu-ge, you still hide such a talent!]
[Hahaha, Fu-ge is indeed Fu-ge. Only he can bring this kind of unexpected development!]
[Hmmm
 what other secrets are you hiding from us~]
While Fu Jinxiao offered to take everyone’s pulses, only his Instructor Li and Tuya came forward. The two of them have a good relationship with the actor, so this could be played as a joke between close friends.
Fu Jinxiao really didn’t just talk about it. He put his fingers on Tuya’s wrist for a moment, and deducted her health from the information he gathered, “I think you’ve been getting angry or overexhausted lately. Your blood pressure is a little on the high side. It should be because your work schedule is  too tight. Get more rest and drink plenty of water. You can help by drinking some chrysanthemum tea.”
Tuya nodded.
Fu Jinxiao took Instructor Li’s pulse, and all his deductions and suggestions were quite on-point. On the side, his little fan Shen Xingsui was looking at the actor with stars inside his eyes.
It would be Shen Xingchen’s turn next. Fu Jinxiao withdrew his hand and gave a few words of advice, Shen Xingsui praised him without hesitation: “Fu-ge, you are really amazing
!”
While letting Fu Jinxiao do his thing, the rest of them continued their chatter.
Shen Xingsui was not very good at blending into the environment. When everyone was chatting happily, he could only sit on a chair not far away and pretend to watch the scenery while secretly watching the other guests.
However, Fu Jinxiao casted his gaze over. The actor would always notice him amidst the crowd, no matter the circumstances.  He then glanced at Shen Xingsui’s hand, “Little Comrade Jian, would you like to try?”
Shen Xingsui immediately nodded. He hesitated a little bit, but he really wanted the experience. “I really can?”
Fu Jinxiao curled his lips up, “Why can’t you? Is there anything wrong?”
Not far away, Anran and the others walked towards them. Anran actually had already counted when his turn was going to be. Fu Jinxiao didn’t have many people around him, so after Shen Xingchen, it should be his turn as long as he got closer. However, as he inched closer, he saw Fu Jinxiao actually took the initiative to call Shen Xingsui.
Li Xu’an saw all this and sneered, as if to laugh at Anran’s desperate attempt. After all, he wasn’t stupid – he knew exactly what Anran wanted.
Shen Xingsui didn’t know what was happening to Anran right now. He was fully concentrating on Fu Jinxiao as he sat on a sofa opposite of the actor. “Can I sit here, then?”
Fu Jinxiao beckoned to him. “No, come here instead.”
The actor patted the sofa by his side.
Shen Xingsui felt a little doubt budding in his heart. The others didn’t seem to sit so close just now. But he wouldn’t refuse the opportunity to sit next to Movie Emperor Fu. As he obediently sat closer, he could feel the older man’s body warmth and smell his cologne.
Other guests were watching, and yet, they were this close
 it felt too intimate, somehow.
Fu Jinxiao bent down and moved closer. He spoke to the youth with a low and magnetic voice: “Give me your hand.”
Shen Xingsui nodded as if he was enthralled by the (admittedly) sexy voice. He stretched out his hand obediently while muttering an “Okay”.
The surroundings seemed to have quieted down. Fu Jinxiao’s bony fingers rested on Shen Xingsui’s fair wrist, caressing it gently. The actor clearly spent more time compared to diagnosing Shen Xingchen. Because of the longer time it took, it would inevitably make other people get a little anxious.
Tuya was very worried, “Is there anything wrong?”
Shen Xingchen knew Fu Jinxiao was just bullying his younger brother, so he couldn’t spit out ivory1(original: 狗昮里搐侍ć‡șè±Ąç‰™ or “a dog can’t spit out ivory”. It means “a filthy mouth cannot utter decent language” and well, in this case, it’s more like SXC couldn’t bring himself to say anything decent about FJX. His big bro instinct must’ve gone haywire seeing wrist caressing motions lol.). He gritted his teeth and answered as if he was convulsing, “There shouldn’t be any.”
“
”
Everyone was silent for a while.
The audience in the live broadcast room finally understood. They laughed together:
[Little Shen! You know something fishy is happening, didn’t you?]
[I kinda feel like
 it’s more than okay if it’s Shen Xingsui
?]
[Upstairs, I understand you.]
It was such a close contact with Fu Jinxiao. Even from his first life, he would never have dreamed of this kind of closeness happening. With the distance between them effectively being zero, Shen Xingsui had the HD view of his idol’s handsome face and felt his breathing tickling his ears.
Fu Jinxiao raised his eyelids and met Shen Xingsui’s eyes. There seemed to be some unknown emotion in the man’s eyes. But soon a smile slowly covered them, and he curled his lips: “It’s nothing serious, just pay more attention to rest. Just don’t be too tired.”
The others breathed a sigh of relief.
Just at this time, the director team asked everyone to go downstairs to gather. So everyone went outside again.
However, Shen Xingsui inexplicably felt that Actor Fu looked like he had something to say. But in the end, the actor didn’t say anything.
After everyone else went downstairs, he followed Fu Jinxiao, and finally mustered up his courage, “Teacher Fu, I
 Is there something wrong with my body? Is it not convenient for you to tell me just now?”
Fu Jinxiao looked at the youth with the corner of his eyes.
Shen Xingsui took a deep breath, and finally decided to say, “Actually, it doesn’t matter. You don’t have to worry about it. I’m prepared. I can bear it. Please tell me honestly!”
The movie emperor couldn’t hold back his wolf-like desires anymore. This youth existed to be teased by him. He used his excellent acting skills as if nothing important was happening. His pace was unhurried, as he leaned over and whispered, “You really want to hear it?”
Shen Xingsui’s expression became more serious, “I really want to hear it.”
“Okay then.” Fu Jinxiao finally bent down. He was about a head taller than Shen Xingsui, and their stature difference looked more emphasized when Fu Jinxiao was this close to Shen Xingsui. With a breathy whisper, he said, “Actually, just now, I didn’t get any results from the diagnosis.”
Shen Xingsui was taken aback.
But he didn’t understand why that happened. Fu-ge’s medical skills should be fine, as he could make a good diagnosis for Instructor Tuya and the others. So why couldn’t Fu Jinxiao get a read of his health now?
Fu Jinxiao seemed to understand his doubts. The actor’s voice was slow, magnetic and sexy. It was a dizzying mixture of a mature man’s charm.
“Because your heart beats too fast, baby.”
