That evening, Ling Qianhe's fan website buzzed with activity.
"I heard the movie Ling Qianhe guest-starred in has wrapped up filming? Anyone with inside information to share?"
Fans chatted excitedly on the forum.
"I heard it's true, the film Qianhe was in finished shooting. They had a wrap party tonight."
"Did any of you stake out the hotel? Any candid photos?"
"Speaking of which, this movie has been so secretive. We still don't know Qianhe's look for it... though I vaguely heard it's stunning."
"Military uniforms are always divine! Just imagining Qianhe in uniform, it's got to be amazing!"
"Wuwuwu, Qianhe is truly incredible!"
"But seriously, no one has managed to get any candid shots. Strange. No candid shots of him, and no candid shots of Lin Mucí either. Could they both be staying at the hotel after the wrap party tonight?"
Meanwhile, on a public forum, several highly discussed posts had been pinned by moderators!
"Exposed! My dad might have encountered a certain top-tier celebrity and his secret girlfriend while driving..."
The post read:
"My dad drives a truck. A few nights ago, it snowed heavily, and my dad encountered a very handsome boy and his girlfriend on the road."
"My dad said the boy's car broke down, so he had to get out with his girlfriend to seek help. My dad also said the boy was incredibly handsome and good-hearted, taking off his down jacket to give to his girlfriend."
"But this boy's identity is very special; he's a top-tier celebrity, the kind whose name you'd recognize instantly!"
"Since I'm a fan of this top-tier celebrity myself, with his posters all over my house, my dad recognized him immediately."
"Of course, he didn't admit it, saying he was just a very similar-looking guy. But with that god-like appearance, I can hardly imagine how many guys could look like him."
"But I'm also skeptical about whether that girl is his girlfriend."
"My dad mentioned the girl seemed to be a young lady from a villa area... That's all the information I have."
This post became popular, with various discussions below.
"Got pics? No pics, it's all made up."
"Top-tier celebrity? How many top-tier celebrities are there in the entire entertainment industry? If it's to the extent the poster described, with god-like looks, I think only Qianhe fits. But as everyone knows, Qianhe has no girlfriend."
Below, everyone was questioning the post's authenticity.
The young lady who posted was getting anxious.
"I'm really not making this up."
"My dad didn't take photos, but he remembered a lot of details!"
"For example, the boy was very protective of the girl. He was freezing, his face pale, yet he shielded her. My dad even said he was worried he might get sick..."
"That little girl was huddled there, protected in his embrace. The light was too dim to see her face clearly, but the atmosphere was unmistakably that of a couple."
"Ah, it's fine if you don't believe me."
"Oh, right, the car they broke down in was a Maybach, license plate..."
Chen Fei was taken aback.
"Qianhe, aren't you planning to release a new song... and the movie 'Night Walker' you previously turned down still hasn't found a suitable candidate; they're waiting for you."
"The show 'Top Street Dance Fighter' has also been postponed because of you. If you take on more work, you'll be extremely busy."
"Are you sure you still want to get involved with these newly debuted girls?"
"There's really no need. Being a mentor to them, bringing them such high attention, is already a blessing they've earned over eight lifetimes..."
Ling Qianhe remained stubborn.
"No. We'll schedule according to their availability."
Chen Fei found Ling Qianhe's behavior perplexing.
"Qianhe, you..."
An unbelievable possibility crossed her mind.
"Do you care about that young girl?"
"That girl named Lin Mucí?"
When she thought about it, Qianhe was taking too much care of her.
"If it's because she was once your fan, you don't need to do this. Too many people like you in this world, Qianhe. You don't need to be so kind."
Ling Qianhe smiled, his voice clear and pleasant.
"No."
"I know she doesn't like me right now."
He paused.
"But I want her to genuinely fall for me."
To love me.
To... never leave me.
