The Best Male God

Chapter 12: Entertainment Circle Reality Show 12

This chapter was translated by Daed to be hosted on .

The new filming location of Swapped Lives was set in the bustling big city of the capital. Zhou Zekai and Tang Bingyu were driven off the car under circumstances where they had no money on their persons. To use the television crews words: this trip was a trip full of meaning. Under circumstances where they were penniless, watch how this pair tries to survive in this bustling big city.

Tang Bingyu was kind of nervous after she got out of the car, and kept close to Zhou Zekais side. The happiness that she felt about returning to the big city completely disappeared. Since young, money had never been a problem for her. She never thought about how to earn enough money to raise herself. But now, to suddenly not give her any money and tell her to survive in this big citythat was asking a lot from her.

It was currently 9:30 in the morning. Since he got out of the car, Zhou Zekai had already started to ponder how they were going to eat their lunch. After all in this kind of big city, it was basically daydreaming to try to gain things by using other people's sympathy. The best method was to know how one should decide.

Grabbing Tang Bingyus hand, Zhou Zekai walked to the breakfast stall at the side and asked the boss.

Boss, are there any cafes or western restaurants nearby?

The boss of the stall had been setting up his stall here for at least 10 years, he naturally was perfectly clear about this area's circumstances. He soon told Zhou Zekai the locations of the cafe and western restaurant, receiving Zhou Zekai's thanks and Tang Bingyu's smile. He saw the cameras filming them, but didn't connect them to a television program. Instead, he merely thought that the kids were filming for fun, and was very welcoming.

After he obtained the locations, Zhou Zekai pulled Tang Bingyu along as he made his way forwards. He planned to find a road map since he hadn't been to this part of the city before. He was afraid that they would get lost.

Tang Bingyu who was dragged along obediently followed Zhou Zekai. Looking at this boy who walked in front of her, she realized that she didn't seem to know since when it was that the other party kept protecting her. She bit her lip and inquired Zhou Zekai, Zeyi, why are we going to the cafe and western restaurant?"

Although they would frequently go in the past, Tang Bingyu hadn't expected that they would go now. They didn't have any money, so why were they going there?

Secret. He turned to give Tang Bingyu a mysterious smile. Zhou Zekais cheerful mood caused the cameramen to laugh. There were some who guessed what Zhou Zekai was planning and chortled with no intentions to tell Tang Bingyu.

The two of them strolled along like this, observing their surroundings. On the road, Tang Bingyu stopped in front of a shop window. Displayed inside was a red dress that was exceptionally beautiful/gorgeous, catching her eye.

They first arrived at the cafe, but after they went in, Zhou Zekai did not find what he was looking for. Thus he pulled Tang Bingyu away. Tang Bingyu was scratching her head in confusion, completely bewildered about what he was doing.

About half an hour later, they found the western restaurant. After getting Tang Bingyu settled in a seat, a satisfied grin appeared on Zhou Zekais face when he saw the piano on the stage in the middle of the large dining area.

What piano pieces do you like to listen to?

At this time, Tang Bingyu finally knew what the other party had been looking for. She immediately beamed with pleasure. She had learned piano too. Her dream was to become a star after all, so she had learned several instruments. At this moment when she heard Zhou Zeyi asking her, she gave her favorite piece.

ProbablyYoung Girls Prayer~

Zhou Zeyi was all smiles when he heard her answer. He wasnt surprised at all to learn that Tang Bingyu liked this piece. This piece Young Girls Prayerwas one of the few piano pieces that had a cheerful and light-hearted tempo. Aside from melancholic pieces, many girls also liked light-hearted ones.

Okay.

Zhou Zekai walked over to the piano. After testing the tune, the spirited sounds of the piano softly flowed out from between his fingertips. He actually drew the attention of the waiters. It was currently 10 AM. There werent many customers around, and everyone was willing to enjoy this elegant piece.

Sitting in front of the piano, donned in a freshly-changed white shirt, Zhou Zekais upright appearance as he played was exceptionally dashing. Tang Bingyu sat there watching him, and felt that Zhou Zekai had too many secrets. That lively, elegant piano piece entered her ears, easing her nervousness and bringing a smile on her face as she enjoyed Zhou Zekais playing.

Music was universal. No matter what instrument was used, as long as it could play the finest musical composition, it would be able to earn everyones appreciation. Evidently, Zhou Zekais piano was up to par, and the cameramen who were filming this watched in excitement. They were certain that if this part where he played the piano was broadcast, it would let the viewers understand a different Zhou Zekai.

It would prove that the city kids were also very outstanding. Even under circumstances in which they possessed more than the rural kids, they werent completely good-for-nothings.

After this rendition of Young Girls Prayer, Zhou Zekai didnt stop. Those clean hands jumped across the keyboard, playing yet another fine piece. He had moved towards one side of the piano bench, Tang Bingyu who was sitting nearby could practically hear Zhou Zekais unspoken invitation. She was immediately bashful, but she still walked over and sat beside him. She placed her own white, clean, slender hands upon the piano keys. Zhou Zekai had purposefully played a single persons melody in this piecePachelbels Canon in D Major, inviting Tang Bingyu to play a piano duet. 1The sourc𝗲 of this content nov(𝒆l)bi((n))

Tang Bingyus participation made this rearranged version of Pachelbels Canon in D Majoreven more elegant and moving. She also astonished the television crew. They truly had never thought that Tang Bingyu would also be so talented. Tang Bingyus strengths had been covered by Zhou Zekai, and now, she who sat in front of the piano was unexpectedly dazzling. The passion towards music within those eyes were clear to see.

A fourteen-fifteen year old boy and girl sat together in front of the piano, playing the same song. Their visuals werent bad either, and this sight brought an approving smile onto the face of the customers who came to eat. After the restaurant manager learned of this matter, he had thought that it was the doing of some art school students who had come to his restaurant for fun. After he approached them, he caught sight of the cameramen. When he looked at Zhou Zekai and Tang Bingyu, he suddenly felt that the boys face seemed familiar. He immediately recognized who this was

Isn't that the child that his son had said joined Swapped Lives? The one who had dug up an exorbitantly-priced ginseng!

Unbeknownst to Zhou Zekai and Tang Bingyu, they had already begun to make their name among the kids. Zhou Zekais performance had even earned him the title National Boyfriend. There were fans who shipped him and Tang Bingyu together
