In the end, the director did not manage to establish a partnership with Meng Chuyuan. However, he knew that for the time being, Lu Jinsen did not have a partner and if everything went as planned, the lineup for the second episode should not change.
Thinking of this, the director felt that he still had room for improvement. Perhaps if he performed well in the next episode, he might be able to discuss collaboration with Meng Chuyuan.
After Lu Qingye watched the live broadcast for a while, it was already past midnight.
He turned off the computer and placed it on the bedside table, ready to lie down.
However, the fact that he did not receive any news from Meng Chuyuan left him feeling restless. He was incessantly bothered by it.
After a while, Lu Qingye found his phone by his pillow and opened WeChat again. When he saw that there was no reply, a trace of gloominess flashed across his eyes.
He hesitated for a moment before clicking on the chat box. Without changing his expression, he sent another message: [Are you done recording?]
Just as the bus quietened down, Meng Chuyuan felt her phone vibrate in her bag.
She happened to be a little bored, so she took out her phone from her bag to take a look. In the end, she realized that Lu Qingye had sent her a WeChat message.
Meng Chuyuanâs eyes were filled with surprise. She opened it slowly and read the two messages from Lu Qingye. The last message caught her attention.
âWasnât he on a business trip abroad?â
How did he know about the Variety show?
Could he have been watching the live broadcast just now?
Meng Chuyuan guessed that he must have seen it. She raised her eyebrows slightly and replied calmly, [Iâm done recording.]
Lu Qingye: [Okay.]
. â Looking at the single word he sent, Meng Chuyuan didnât know what he meant and didnât reply any further.
A few hours laterâ¦
When they returned to the crowded Wei City, everyone came out of the airport together and saw countless fans holding up fansigns with Qi Zhen and Liao Jiakeâs name on them. Lu Jinsenâs was the only one missing.
When they saw the guests coming out, the fans shouted their idolâs name excitedly. They gave gifts and asked for autographs.
It did not take long for the fans of the two camps to block the entire airport walkway. Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen could not get out even if they wanted to, so they could only stand aside.
Seeing such a spectacle, Meng Chuyuan was very surprised. She even felt a little disgusted by their behavior. Because the fans had blocked the airport road, she, Lu Jinsen, and the other passers-by could not leave the airport even if they wanted to. They could only stand aside.
Meng Chuyuan suddenly tilted her head and glanced at Lu Jinsen. She teased, âWhere are your fans? They didnât come to welcome you?
When Lu Jinsen heard this, he snorted and said disdainfully, âNo one came to pick you up either.â
Although Lu Jinsen had some popularity, it was mostly from the exposure provided by his anti-fans. Many of his remaining fans were just short-term fans. They followed him out of brief interest, but phased out after a while.
The people who were blocked by the fans began to complain. âWhat kind of people are these? All of them are crazy and insist on blocking the walkway. Theyâre wasting everyoneâs time.â
âFrom the looks of it, they should be celebrities, right?â
âThe car I arranged for is about to arrive. Iâd better take another exit.â
At this moment, a few tall bodyguards in black suits suddenly came and coldly swept through the crowd. âPlease make way.â
With the sudden arrival of the troops, the fans gradually fell silent and their gaze could not help but land on this group of bodyguards.
Qi Yanâs eyes flickered. Thinking that her bodyguards had arrived, she cooperated and said, âEveryone, stand aside. Donât get injured.â
Meng Chuyuan watched as Qi Yan actively evacuated her fans. As if she had seen through everything, she could not help but click her tongue. âHow interesting.â
Soon, the fans divided into two sides and consciously made a walkway in the middle.
Just as Qi Yan was about to hand the suitcase to the bodyguard, he ignored her and continued walking.
Meng Chuyuan was still immersed in watching the show and did not notice that the bodyguard was walking in her direction.
Until the bodyguard stopped in front of her and said humbly, âMadam, Mr. Lu asked me to bring you home.â
Meng Chuyuan:
The other guests, including the fans and passersby present, all looked at Meng Chuyuan.
Some passersby had never seen such a spectacle before and could not help but take out their phones to record a short video.
The fans gathered at the side discussed softly. âWho are those two? Are they from the group of slackers?â
âHiss⦠Itâs true! Isnât she the abandoned wife? Why are there so many bodyguards coming to pick her up?â
Meng Chuyuan thought that Qi Yan and the others were the ones who had arranged for the bodyguards to come to their rescue after the fiasco with their fans⦠But now, she felt like she had become the center of attention.
No wonder Lu Qingye asked her if she had finished filming the Variety show. So this was the purpose of his question.
The bodyguard consciously picked up Meng Chuyuanâs luggage and did not look at Lu Jinsen at all. This made him a little unhappy. âWhat about me? You canât see me, is that right?â
These bodyguards naturally recognized Lu Jinsen, but they said to him, âSecond Young Master, Mr. Lu didnât mention you.â
Lu Jinsen:
Just now, he had mocked Meng Chuyuan for having nobody to pick her up. In the end, he was the one who really didnât have anyone picking him up.
Hearing this, Meng Chuyuan was shocked again.
After a while, Meng Chuyuan said to the bodyguard, âBring him along.â
âWill do.â
Under the escort of the bodyguards, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen walked out of the door without any obstacles and got into a high-end business car.
When Qi Yan saw this scene, her expression darkened. She even stomped her feet angrily.
Qi Yanâs actions just now happened to be seen by Liao Jiake, so she asked worriedly, âSister Yanyan, whatâs wrong?â
She forced a smile. âIâm fine. I just have a cramp in my leg.â
âHave you been standing for too long? Do you need to find a place to sit down and rest?â
Qi Yan shook her head. âNo need. Iâll be heading back home soon.â
After Meng Chuyuan got into the car, the bodyguard thoughtfully handed her a bottle of water and said, âMadam, shall I send you back home to rest first?â
She accepted the water bottle and said her thanks before responding to the bodyguardâs question. âLetâs send your young master back first.â
âYouâre the young master.â Lu Jinsen was a little unhappy, so he could not help but retort Meng Chuyuan.
He hated this nickname the most.
Because the anti-fan liked to use this title to mock him.
Meng Chuyuan glanced at him and said disdainfully, âYouâre full of bad habits and you still say that youâre not the young master.â
Lu Jinsen:
When she returned to the Lu residence, it was already dark.
After the car was parked, Lu Jinsen was about to get out of the car but he hesitated for a moment. He turned to Meng Chuyuan and said, âWhy donât you head home after dinner.â
âHuh?â Meng Chuyuan thought that she had heard wrongly. âWhat did you
Lu Jinsen did not like to repeat himself to others.
But when he thought about how others said that he had the temper of a young master and that nothing good came out of his mouth, his eyes darkened.. He said to Meng Chuyuan patiently, âI said, do you want to stay for dinner?â
