Chapter 167: Chapter 167 Attractive Places

Yu Jiajia was watching the program, and Zhang Li and her bestie Han Yan were also paying attention to the show.

The program was on air.

At first, it was Wu Mu and the others waiting for Yu Ke to appear, followed by footage of Wu Mu going up to embarrass himself with a piano piece.

Han Yan and the others, who had been dragged into expecting something impressive, thinking Wu Mu had some hidden piano skills, couldn’t help bursting into laughter when they saw the level of Wu Mu’s piano playing.

Han Yan chuckled, "This Wu really is something else, he has the guts to say he can play the piano with that skill level."

Zhang Li was somewhat covering her face, saying you really mean it when you say you’re going to embarrass yourself.

They all just assumed this was Wu Mu intentionally creating effects for the show and didn’t pay much mind.

Even though Yu Ke on the show seemed pretty interested in the piece Wu Mu played, they just thought she was being socially savvy with high EQ.

But who would have thought...

On the show, the footage had moved on to setting the rule that each person would be the team leader for one day, followed by shots of the group boarding the plane.

Then there was a little incident on the plane.

Lu Yao was excitedly discussing what places to visit once they arrived in France at the front of the plane.

In the back, Lin Qingyue asked Yu Ke, "Teacher Yu Ke, why were you interested in the song that Wu Mu played?"

Like the audience, Wang Xiaotian and the others only thought Yu Ke was just being polite, but Lin Qingyue felt the surprise on Yu Ke’s face when she appeared wasn’t fake.

Of course, Yu Ke wasn’t faking it. She explained with a smile, "Although the piece Teacher Wu Mu just played sounds simple, its structure is very innovative. If you listen carefully, you can hear though several parts are transposed down, they repeat the melody of the previous part."

"This kind of composition method is very creative, and I think Teacher Wu Mu is quite impressive for coming up with it."

Several parts repeating the melody of one part?

Han Yan was puzzled, "Is Yu Ke serious?"

Is that impressive, even creative?

It’s just a minor piano piece, right? Not to mention Wu Mu played it so poorly, it was absolutely torturous for the ears. Even if it was played well, it’s just some simple melodies. Can that really be considered impressive and creative?

If it were someone else, Han Yan would definitely think they were just hyping it up.

Just like on other shows, where an idol cuts their finger and doesn’t go to the hospital, while people around them exclaim how brave they are.

It’s that kind of cringeworthy toe-curling thing.

But if it’s Wu Mu... Han Yan could only say, let’s just believe it for now, to avoid getting slapped in the face later.

After all, even as Wu Mu’s anti-fan, one has to admit that Wu Mu does have some impressive songwriting skills.

The barrage of comments was similar. New viewers were questioning it, but seasoned viewers who had been proven wrong before chose to believe it for the time being.

Then, after arriving in Paris, there was another classic Wu Mu activity segment.

He stops cars on the street, offers tips for taking photos for money, and then goes on to mooch off a broadcaster’s tickets.

Han Yan and Zhang Li were thoroughly entertained.

There had been summaries online about why Wu Mu’s shows were so attractive, mainly for three reasons.

First, there’s a sense of joy and relaxation; the antics and effects behind the scenes reveal a lighthearted and carefree disposition, as if you could join in and relax with him.

Especially with Zhang Haoran acting all cautious and burdened by his idol image on the side, it made Wu Mu’s demeanor stand out even more.

Second, of course, there are unexpected moments and real talent. It goes without saying for the burst of excitement when something sudden happens that changes the direction of the show.

True talent is also undeniable, whether it’s songwriting, singing, or even doing puzzles and games, all revealing Wu Mu’s genuine abilities.

As for the third point...

Well, just then on the show, the second point happened—an unexpected moment occurred.

After hitting all the must-see spots at the Eiffel Tower, Wang Xiaotian and the others were stopped by Sha Wei’er.

Ah, the crew was short an actor and wanted Wu Mu to perform?

Could a normal person just stumble upon something like that on the street?

If it were anyone else, one wouldn’t have to think twice to know it was a scripted event set up by the production team, but with Wu Mu, it’s better to just believe for now.

Han Yan clicked her tongue, "He always manages to run into these situations, but his acting doesn’t seem very good, right?"

Zhang Li nodded, "It’s not good."

Who among Wu Mu’s old fans didn’t know? Wu Mu’s acting skills were lacking; it was that kind of earnest effort to act well that came off as too forced and stiff.

Even his most loyal old fans could only say when it came to his acting, "Brother has been working hard, it’s okay if he can’t act."

"Haha, I can’t wait to see Wu make a fool of himself," Han Yan was instantly filled with anticipation.

She couldn’t believe it, Wu Mu suddenly improved his singing, but could he also be great at acting?

But just as she thought that, Wu Mu on the screen, upon Sha Wei’er’s request, changed his expression.

Simply looking down and slightly emptying his gaze, his whole demeanor shifted, turning into the silent Wu Mu, and Han Yan was completely taken aback.

What? When did his acting become so impressive?

Just changing his expression made him seem like a different person?

Han Yan was undoubtedly confused. She instinctively looked over at Zhang Li to see if she knew about this but noticed that her friend’s brows were already furrowed.

Han Yan paused for a second, then realized something.

No, it wasn’t acting.

She turned back to the screen and saw Wu Mu’s aura, quiet and solemn, and let out a small sigh, "That’s how he seemed when he first started out, right?"

Zhang Li nodded lightly. Although she had become a fan when Wu Mu was already somewhat famous, she had looked through all of Wu Mu’s early programs and photos.

She knew very well that Wu Mu was like this in the early stages of his career, quiet and indifferent to the world, like a piece of duckweed floating on the water, ready to disappear with the current at any moment.

It was only after he became more famous that he seemed to find some support and began to be more active and enthusiastic, striving to do everything well, sunnily and earnestly embracing life.

Zhang Li and Han Yan had joined the fan base around that time, and they were drawn to this celebrity who inspired them to be just as enthusiastic and hardworking.

Back when they were still fans, they were deeply concerned about Wu Mu’s early demeanor and speculated about what he must have gone through, while also feeling relieved that their brother hadn’t been defeated by hardship but had instead stood up and persevered.

Now, seeing Wu Mu’s long-lost somber style again, Zhang Li and Han Yan, as his anti-fans, inevitably felt a bit of heaviness in their hearts.

And the show was far from over—soon it was time for Wu Mu to come to the set and perform the Canon.
