Arc 1 - Registration: Chapter 6 - Suspicion

Hello! So glad I have more readers now even though we barely communicate... 

I just finished submitting my portfolio today so I post another chapter.

How about you guys? What are you doing last week?

I really want to get to know you guys, so it would be great if I can get some reply!

Chan Weiting led everyone toward the bushes to hide away from the wild boar, waiting for it to get away from the area. One of the guys from the strange trio rolled his eyes observing Chan Weiting's group, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. At the same time, in the corner of Cai Xukun's eyes, he also secretly checked out the trio for any sudden movement. When they felt it was safe enough to make noises, a muscular foreigner started to introduce himself.

"Hi! Thanks for alerting us. I am Jack Reeves, this is Susan Kunis..."

"Hi everybody! I am Susan from America! Nice to meet you, strangers!"

The girl, who looked mid-twenty, Susan Kunis interrupted Jack Reeves from continuing to introduce the last person in their group. Susan Kunis approached Chan Weiting, who she thought was the leader of the group, gave him a handshake and informally greeted them.

Jack Reeves stood behind, frowned annoyingly at Susan Kunis but also seemed as though he got used to how she acted. He grabbed Susan Kunis by the collar and pulled her back before continuing his introduction to the last person.

"...Sorry, that's just how she is... and we also just met the last guy on the way from a group of Japanese, but he is a Chinese named Hu Mengzhou, a newcomer."

"Hi! I am Mengzhou... by the way, you guys seem familiar..."

Everyone paid their attention to Hu Mengzhou almost in surprise from the familiar name, but the one who had recognized him from the start was Cai Xukun. Even though they did not work together before, but he was a famous figure in the entertainment industry. Moreover, Hu Mengzhou's debut song was performed by the girls during his time as youth producer as the extra stage for the winning group.

Chan Weiting was also surprised by the familiar name, and the rest also seemed to realize who Hu Mengzhou was. Chan Weiting asked.

"Hu Mengzhou? If I am not mistaken, you also come with the name Corsak?"

"You know me?"

Although Hu Mengzhou seemed surprised on the outside, in fact, he was really calm and looked almost expecting to meet with them. Xiao Zhan, who was really sensitive with people's emotions, noticed this strangeness coming from Hu Mengzhou, and instinctively put up his guard. At this time, Chan Weiting was glad to find someone he knew beside his group, so he did not find anything unusual about Hu Mengzhou.

"You have been on the weibo hot list search because you have been disappearing for almost a year! How did you get here?"

Chan Weiting exclaimed and covered his mouth with his palm to exaggerate his amazement. Hu Mengzhou frowned and seemingly thought about something, then he said.

"...A year? I was in Japan for a tour concert and today is my fourth day away from China."

Horrored at an impossible thought running through his brain, Chan Weiting looked at Cai Xukun who was standing next to him, who also frowned at the same idea.

"...Hey, are you thinking the same thing as I am thinking right now?"

"I am pretty sure we all think the same thing right now."
