Chapter 144: #144 - Chapter 144 Return Home

Scenes flashed before Xiao Huang's eyes.

Until finally, the images blurred, replaced by Wen He's choked sobs of pain.

It slightly turned its head, looking at the man kneeling on the ground, desperately begging, and then at the white-haired old man, barely clinging to life in the car.

Finally, Xiao Huang once again fixed its gaze on Wen He.

It wanted to tell its master.

Since meeting its master, its life had been dedicated to two things.

Protecting its master.

Protecting humans.

It placed its own life in third place.

Every time Xiao Huang rushed forward to protect others, it never hesitated.

Even at the cost of its own life, it would never regret it.

Even if given the chance to do it all over again, it would still make the same choice without hesitation.

Because of its master, it had rediscovered its love for humanity.

It had fallen in love with the group that had given it warmth.

It didn't understand what 'love me, love my dog' meant; it only knew that Wen He was a part of this group.

So...

"Master, please let him go. I saved a human, but I don't want to hurt another human because of it."

Wen He seemed to read Xiao Huang's thoughts in its eyes.

"Xiao Huang... let's go home..."

Cheng Yudie sobbed, gently stroking Xiao Huang's head.

She, too, saw what Xiao Huang was thinking.

Hearing the words "go home," Xiao Huang felt a warm feeling in its heart.

It closed its eyes happily, falling asleep forever in its master's arms.

Soaked to the bone, Wen He held it, walking step by step towards home like a living corpse.

"Thank you... thank you... you're a great person... I will definitely compensate you... thank you..."

Seeing this, the man thanked Wen He repeatedly.

And with Wen He no longer blocking the way, the onlookers and the mother naturally had no reason to continue obstructing, and they all made way.

...

...

The next day.

The scene of "The Coming One".

"Wen He said he had some things to take care of and would be a little late today," the director said, looking at the message Wen He had sent.

"He He seems to have gone on vacation, right? I saw his WeChat Moments; he went to Harbin with Cheng Yudie and their dog," Yang Mi said.

"I remember he came back yesterday. He chatted with me when he boarded the plane yesterday, saying he wanted to record the show and then go again," Xue Zhiqian also had news about Wen He.

"Maybe he didn't get enough rest and missed the plane this morning; after all, traveling can be tiring," Hua Chenyu guessed.

The three mentors were a little surprised by the news that Wen He would be late today.

After all, given his personality, he didn't seem like someone who would be late.

"It's okay, the show can go on as usual. Anyway, Wen He is just sitting there as a mascot when he appears early, so it's better to wait until the end and just sing. Maybe the show's effect will be better. Since he said he can make it, we have to believe him."

This is the last episode of "The Coming One", and it's also the episode that has accumulated the most heat and will explode.

If the show is postponed at this time, it will not be a good thing for the entire program.

But it also carries a certain risk.

After all, Wen He really didn't show up today, and it's hard to say whether he can really make it.

They are using a live broadcast method for recording, and even if Wen He is ten minutes late, the show's effect will be greatly reduced.

If he's more than half an hour late, it's basically over.

He now only hopes that Wen He can come as soon as possible.

As the fifteenth episode of "The Coming One" began.

A large number of viewers flooded into the live broadcast room like crazy.

This is the last episode, and it's obvious that Wen He will definitely appear.

So everyone came very quickly.

However...

When they saw that the space above the "Special Guest" was empty.

The people in the live broadcast room were a little confused.

【What? What is the production team doing? This is the last episode, and there's no Wen He? 】

【Before, Wen He was a mascot in the show, and then he sang a song, which was simple enough. What does it mean that he's not here at all for the last episode? Can't the production team afford him, or has Wen He become arrogant? 】

【It's not impossible. After all, Wen He isn't in every episode. So far, Wen He has only appeared in one "Du Xiu", as well as the fourth and ninth episodes, a total of three times. Maybe the production team really can't afford Wen He because he quoted too high a price. 】

【I don't think so. The production team might be secretly preparing something big for us, wanting to shock us hard. 】

【"The Coming One" is now so popular, there's no reason why they can't afford him, and Wen He doesn't seem like the kind of person who would raise prices on the spot and then ask for an exorbitant price. I also tend to think that the production team is trying to do something fancy. 】

When people didn't find Wen He, everyone was obviously a little confused.

But if you attribute it to the production team wanting to do something for effect, it's understandable.

So before this episode officially ended, everyone watched with curiosity.

As the content of the show had already passed halfway, the director couldn't sit still.

When the show was already three-quarters of the way through, Wen He finally got off the plane.

However, Cheng Yudie also came along this time.

"You're finally here, my dear. Hurry up, the show is about to finish recording," the director said after picking them up, and quickly rushed back to the scene.

Wen He and Cheng Yudie didn't say much along the way, and Wen He's face looked very bad.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" the director realized the problem.

"Cough... cough... It's nothing, I have a bit of a cold..." Wen He's throat sounded a little hoarse.

"Then how about we call it a day? We can record a final work later when your cold gets better and make up for it."

"It's okay, it won't affect my singing," Wen He said.

"Are you really okay?" He frowned and asked again, confirming.

Because Wen He's face was indeed relatively bad, and intuition told him that it shouldn't be as simple as a cold.

And Cheng Yudie didn't have much of a smile on her face either.

Could it be that they had a fight?

No... no, that's not right.

If they had a fight, how could Cheng Yudie still come along?

But if they didn't have a fight, their state was obviously a little off.

"Yeah, it's okay," Wen He smiled somewhat reluctantly.

"Okay, anyway, pay attention to yourself. If there's any problem, tell me at any time. Compared to the show, you are obviously more important."

"Thank you."

After they returned to the show's recording site, this episode had just entered its closing work.

After a simple preparation...

Under the host's grand introduction, Wen He slowly walked towards the stage under the spotlight.

At this moment!

The long-awaited people burst into thunderous applause and cheers!
