Yanshi Airport, Terminal 2.

"Have you brought your passport? Visa? ID card——"

"Lao Yang, aren't you tired of talking? It's not Si Xian's first training abroad. Do you need to be verbose from morning till now?" Xin Xue lowered her head and looked at her watch, "What time is it?"

Hurry up and help Si Xian check in your luggage."

"No," Lu Si Xian said. Yang Xinnian was so annoyed that he had a headache and wanted to run away while pushing the luggage cart, "I can do it myself."

"Where are you going?" Yang Xinnian grabbed his coat and said, "Why don't you say goodbye to Keke before you leave? Keke is competing today, and you don't wish him a good result? Do you think of him as an older brother?

?”

Lu Sixian's eyes were filled with impatience, and he finally stopped.

Yang Xinnian immediately made a video call.

Listening to the ringtone, Tong Ran was checking the props backstage. When she pressed the "connect" button, Yang Xinnian's face filled the screen.

"Hi, Coco, I'm brother-in-law."

I can see it...

Tong Ran silently swallowed the four words that were about to come out, "Hello, brother-in-law."

Yang Xinnian took the phone away, and the camera captured Xin Xue, who had a stiff smile, and Lu Sixian, who had a cold face.

Tong Ran guessed the general situation just by thinking about it, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Hearing him laugh, Lu Si Xian lazily raised his eyelids, and then Tong Ran changed his hairstyle. His sideburns were trimmed neatly, and his slightly curly bangs hung unruly in a few strands, but did not block the hairline. Look.

It tastes refreshing and casual, with a slightly more lightly cooked flavor.

"Dye your hair?" he asked.

"It's a one-time thing." Tong Ran brushed her brown bangs lightly, "The role requires it."

"What role?"

Tong Ran subconsciously wanted to answer, but before the words came out, she smiled again: "You'll know if you come and see me? Didn't I give you the ticket?"

Even though she knew that Lu Sixian would not be able to attend the appointment, Tong Ran still sent a ticket, which was a bit of a ritual.

He was just joking with Lu Sixian, but Yang Xinnian said seriously: "Your brother can't come, your sister and I, well, your teacher Xin will be here later."

A childlike smile paused, and he said hello helplessly.

There is really nothing interesting to talk about in front of adults. They are just polite words. One of them said "I'm worried on the road" and the other said "Come on for the game". On the contrary, it seemed alienated.

Even a man as nervous as Yang Xinnian felt that the two of them were too careless. Just as he was about to give a speech, he heard someone call "Tong Ran"'s name. At that moment, a figure appeared on the screen, but only half of the other person was shown.

Make a face.

——It's a man.

But before Yang Xinnian could see the man's appearance clearly, the painting was suddenly interrupted.

"Why did you die?" Yang Xinnian looked confused.

Tong Ran on the other side of the phone was also stunned. Looking at the completely black screen, she thought that she seemed to have forgotten to charge it last night...

He sighed secretly and turned to the visitor, "Mr. Shao."

Shao Que stared directly at Tong Ran, not even looking at the other person's face. He lightly raised the corner of his mouth and said, "You know I'm coming? The magician's prophecy ability?"

Tong Ran really didn't care about Shao Que's appearance. After all, the two had just passed the Yan City Magician Competition. Afterwards, he found out that the Shao family had invested in the magic industry, but Tong Yichen didn't.

What was mentioned during hypnosis was that there was no similar development in the plot. Tong Ran had reason to suspect that Shao Que was here for him.

 In Tong Ran's plan, Shao Que might be useful in the future, so he has always been polite to Shao Que, but he doesn't want to have too much contact with many parties, let alone see Shao Que come to him frequently.

‌‌An eyesore.

"Mr. Shao is here to inspect the business?" Tong Ran asked knowingly.

"That's right," Shao Que smiled slightly, "I'm here to examine you."

Tong Ran did not avoid Shao Que's ambiguous hint, and even smiled the same way, but it made people interpret the connotation of "I will listen to you fart".

Shao Que paused and said after a moment of silence: "I am planning to set up a magic agency. I am also very optimistic about your development, so I would like to ask if you are interested in joining?"

Tong Ran said "Oh", "Thank you for your love, but I have a company."

"Kang Cheng? Can you have a hundred people in your entire company?" Shao Que said with a sarcastic smile, "And as far as I know, Kang Cheng Entertainment is not a professional magic company."

Tong Ran said calmly: "The company treats me very well, and besides, I have a professional agent.

When Shao Que was investigating Tong Ran, he also checked up on Xin Xue. He knew what Xin Xue had been busy with recently, and was also surprised that the other party was so devoted to Tong Ran out of "empathy" - not only did he personally learn how to be a

The magic agent even helped Tong Ran create opportunities to get close to him.

His first encounter with Tong Ran was obviously a carefully arranged accident.

He chose to accept it because he had indeed become interested in Tong Ran and was willing to spend more time on this somewhat mysterious young man.

Unexpectedly, Tong Ran suddenly came up with a different tune.

But Shao Que didn't want to expose it, and he didn't want to speak too bluntly, which would be too pointless.

"If you think about it again, if you are willing to come, I can transfer part of the equity to you for free," he said, "I am really sincere."

"Thank you, anything else?"

Shao Que suppressed his smile and stepped away after a moment.

Tong Ran walked around him.

"Tong Ran," seeing Tong Ran walking further and further away, Shao Que suddenly called him again, "Everything has a degree. If it's too much, it's pretentious."

Tong Ran shouldn't be able to understand the completely unrelated words, but he picked up the clues from Shao Que's "Pu Xin Nan" tone and understood what the other party was thinking.

Tong Ran's steps were slightly stagnant, and he walked a few more steps. When he was almost at the door, he couldn't help but overdo it and said, "Mr. Shao, your equestrian skills must be very good."

With such a big face, he should be able to run a horse.

Coming out of the backstage, Tong Ran quickly met an acquaintance.

After all, the China Magic Cup Competition is a national-level competition. Players come from all over the country. There are also relatively well-known foreign magicians among the judges. It only takes place two years ago. It is indeed a major event in Yan City's magic circle.

Not only were most of the friends on the forum here, but also Wang Yaochun and other seniors that Tong Ran had come into contact with were also present in person, waiting to enjoy the three-day magic feast.

"Brother Dedi," K-meow, who was wearing Hanfu, ran over with her skirt in hand, "I miss you so much!"

She hasn't seen Tong Ran for a long time, but she often pays attention to Tong Ran's movements and knows that Tong Ran is becoming more and more powerful. Not only has she performed abroad, but she has also appeared on several TV shows.

Tong Ran said amusedly: "It seems we just chatted on WeChat yesterday?"

k meow giggled "hehe", "How can words compare to ‌‌? By the way, thank you for sending me the tickets!"

Tong Ran: "You're welcome."

Tong Ran had a total of 10 tickets, 3 were given to Xin Xue’s family, and the rest were given to forum netizens.

Suddenly, K Meow tugged on his sleeve, "Look, that's Xu Liu!"

Tong Ran took advantage of the situation and saw a young man who was chatting with someone not far away. The young man was very polite and was wearing a silk shirt, but his hair was dyed an arrogant red. The overall look was a bit nondescript.

Perhaps they were looking too aggressively, but Xu Liu seemed to notice and turned his head.

He must have recognized Tong Ran. He was stunned for a moment, then his expression calmed and his eyes became sharp.

Tong Ran kept smiling, thought for a while, and made a playful gesture.

Xu Liu paused, raised his thumb again, and slowly fell down.

"Brother Dedi, he is provoking you!" K meow glared at Xu Liu, but the other party had already turned his head.

Tong Ran was not here. He had long heard that Xu Liu was very arrogant. Although he disdained being in cahoots with Xu Xiuping, he probably didn't like him either and just wanted to compete.

"I read on the forum that he is best at hand magic, and he is also good at stage illusions." K Meow knew about the "lawsuit" between Xu Liu and Tong Ran, and asked in a voice, "Brother Dedi, who are you?"

Do you want to perform stage magic?"

Tong Ran nodded.

"I wonder what kind of magic Xu Liu is going to perform?" K Meow was a little curious, but also a little worried.

The main reason is that Xu Xiuping is also one of the judges of this competition. The competition adopts a scoring system. If Xu Xiuping fails to score points, it will be very detrimental to Brother Dedi...

"Every category is the same," Tong Ran wasn't too worried. With "international friends" present and tens of thousands of spectators, the judges wouldn't go too far even if they pressed the score. "Anyway, we still have to choose in the end.

Overall championship.”

Unlike the Yan City Magician Competition, the overall champion of the China Magic Cup has a professionally certified award certificate, which is an official title recognized by the country.

In the past, the overall championship was determined based on the judges' scores, but this time the competition system was slightly adjusted. After the eight category champions were determined, the eight champions drew lots and performed impromptu performances on stage. The audience finally voted to give the final score.

It can also be regarded as a disguised form of the "Most Popular Audience Award".

"It's still different," Tian Jiao analyzed with seriousness from the side, "If he competes in the color group, then you can at least win the individual championship in the stage group!"

Tong Ran chuckled, "Sister Jiaojiao, do you have too much confidence in me, or too little confidence in me?"

Tian Jiao and K Miao looked at each other and smiled, "I have always had confidence in you, but I just don't have confidence in President Xu."
