I Swapped Bodies With a Female Celebrity - Chapter 82

“Oh no, Chen Qiyun has arrived now too. This makes things a bit tricky!”

In the van, Sister Lin’s face showed a hint of worry.

Qin Lang blinked. “Why? What’s the issue?”

Sister Lin shot Qin Lang an exasperated look. “The order of entry matters. It wouldn’t have been a problem if we hadn’t run into each other, but now that we’ve met at the entrance like this…”

Qin Lang rolled her eyes. “Oh, that’s what this is about? What does it matter? Who goes in first changes absolutely nothing!”

With that, Qin Lang opened the door and stepped out of the van, leaving Sister Lin with a helpless expression.

At that moment, a girl with short hair got out of the van parked opposite them.

Chen Qiyun! It was really her!

Seeing Qin Lang get out, a flash of surprise also appeared in Chen Qiyun’s eyes.

For a moment, she seemed to understand Qin Lang’s intentions, and a trace of a smile flickered in the depths of her gaze.

Meanwhile, the paparazzi in the distance were getting excited.

“They’re both out! The show is about to start!”
“Quick, rush over! We have to get the first interview!”
“Don’t anyone dare steal my scoop! I’m the man who will be the Paparazzi King!”
…

Chen Qiyun clearly hadn’t anticipated this situation.

Seeing so many ‘ferocious’ paparazzi charging towards her with reddened eyes, she was completely stunned.

What was going on? What did these people want?

Chen Qiyun rarely encountered scenes like this. For a moment, she was flustered and didn’t know how to react!

“Miss Chen Qiyun, please accept my interview!”
“Miss Chen Qiyun, it’s said online that you’re here to overshadow Qin Yunxuan. Is that true?”
“You haven’t participated in any variety shows for two years. What’s your purpose for joining I Am a Singer this time? Is it just to solidify your position as the top musician of the younger generation?”

Faced with this barrage of questions, a flash of panic crossed Chen Qiyun’s face. She wasn’t sure how to respond.

“Sorry, it’s almost time. I need to go in now!”

Chen Qiyun hurriedly said, then turned to rush into the television station.

But the crowd behind her pursued relentlessly.

Watching this scene, a faint smile appeared on Qin Lang’s face not far away.

It seemed… this Chen Qiyun had a bit of a naturally airheaded charm.

Suddenly, Chen Qiyun stumbled, her whole body pitching forward!

The paparazzi behind her lit up.

If they couldn’t get an interview, capturing a photo of Chen Qiyun falling would be enough to spin into a sensational story later!

But at that moment, a stunning figure flashed across the paparazzi’s camera lenses.

Meanwhile, Chen Qiyun’s heart was filled with embarrassment and despair.

She closed her eyes. She knew perfectly well that if she fell here, there was no telling how the paparazzi would twist the story!

But just then, as she braced for impact, Chen Qiyun felt the world spin. A strong arm wrapped around her waist. When she opened her eyes, she found herself held firmly by Qin Yunxuan.

She froze completely. Had Qin Yunxuan saved her?

“Are you okay?” Qin Lang breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, Chen Qiyun hadn’t been far, otherwise, she might not have made it in time.

Chen Qiyun stared blankly at Qin Lang, still not fully processing what had happened.

The perfect profile, the slight smile… In Chen Qiyun’s eyes, Qin Yunxuan’s entire face seemed to glow like that of an angel with a halo.

“Are you okay?” Qin Lang thought with internal alarm.

What’s wrong with this Chen Qiyun? Did the shock trigger some condition?

If something happens to her while I’m holding her, what if she tries to pin it on me?

Just as Qin Lang was feeling conflicted, Chen Qiyun snapped out of it as if waking from a dream, her face slightly flushed.

“Oh, I… I’m fine!”

Qin Lang relaxed and slowly withdrew her arm from around Chen Qiyun’s slender waist.

Hmm, nice feel. She must work out regularly.

“Well then, I’ll head in first! Looking forward to your performance today!”

Qin Lang gave a light laugh, then turned and walked into the television station.

Chen Qiyun touched her own face. For a moment just now, she had felt her heart flutter!

“Am I crazy? I actually felt a flutter for a woman!” Chen Qiyun shook her head, somewhat self-mockingly.

But she had to admit, in that instant, Qin Yunxuan had been breathtakingly beautiful.

No wonder Qin Yunxuan had so many fans before. With looks like that, she could hold her own in the entertainment industry.

She turned and entered the TV station. Outside, the previously chaotic paparazzi completely erupted!

They had originally just wanted a photo of Chen Qiyun falling to embellish later, but now… they had something even juicier!

“Qin Yunxuan disregards online gossip, heroically saves a rival!”
“The love-hate relationship between Qin Yunxuan and Chen Qiyun!”
“That gentle gaze: a love transcending gender!”
…

If you could imagine it, these paparazzi dared to write it.

Meanwhile, backstage at I Am a Singer.

“Yunxuan!”

Seeing Qin Yunxuan, Liu Qingcheng’s face lit up with affectionate warmth.

Qin Lang shuddered, looking at Liu Qingcheng strangely.

Was this the same Liu Qingcheng who had hated her guts before?

“Stop! Liu Qingcheng, act normal. What do you really want?”

Qin Lang adopted a guarded posture.

Liu Qingcheng blinked, feigning a hint of hurt. “I just… wanted to thank you!”

“Thank me?”

Qin Lang’s mouth twitched. Had this girl’s brain gotten scrambled when she fainted last time?

Shouldn’t she despise me? How could she possibly be thanking me?

“You carried me out when I fainted last time!” Liu Qingcheng said with a sincere gaze. “So I’m truly grateful. I know we’ve had our differences before, but you returned my malice with kindness. It would be terribly ungrateful of me to not acknowledge that.”

Qin Lang looked Liu Qingcheng up and down, weighing how much of what the girl said was genuine and how much was an act.

Though the smile on Liu Qingcheng’s face was sweet, a chill ran down her spine inside.

Because Qin Lang’s gaze was far too penetrating.

Liu Qingcheng felt as if Qin Lang’s eyes were piercing through her clothes, appraising her freely.

Suddenly, Qin Lang smiled. “Indeed, it’s better to resolve conflicts than to hold onto them. I’m glad you see it that way.”

Liu Qingcheng breathed an internal sigh of relief. It seemed Qin Yunxan believed her.

“But I still owe you an apology!”

A look of remorse appeared on Liu Qingcheng’s face. “Because of my inappropriate remarks during that last interview, some reporters exaggerated things. The reason Chen Qiyun came to I Am a Singer today is to defeat you head-on and maintain her position as the top talent of the younger generation. So…”

“You really need to be careful today!”

Qin Lang narrowed her eyes slightly and chuckled. “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”
