"Is this really okay?" Wang Zuxian's face turned red.
Wang Chao had carried her up the mountain earlier, and now he was going to carry her down as well, making her feel a little embarrassed.
"If your foot can't move, then you can't go down the mountain. Our time is limited, and we can't just stay here, right?"
"Come on up!"
Wang Chao didn't say much and stood up, then crouched down, signaling for Wang Zuxian to climb on his back.
Blushing, Wang Zuxian ultimately got on Wang Chao's back and positioned herself.
Wang Chao held onto Wang Zuxian's buttocks, lifting her up, and then started carrying her down the stairs step by step towards the foot of the mountain.
Descending the stairs, each step was accompanied by a slight tremor.
With each tremor, Wang Zuxian's body collided with Wang Chao's back.
However, Wang Zuxian didn't feel any bumps, and she still felt incredibly safe.
Resting against Wang Chao's back, she enjoyed the fragrance emanating from him.
The feeling was comfortable, secure, and the scent was pleasant.
She held onto Wang Chao tightly, even as she looked at the distant foot of the mountain, without any fear.
Oddly enough, she had a slight fear of heights, and usually, when she went down the mountain on her own, she would feel a tinge of fear.
But now, lying on Wang Chao's back, she felt incredibly safe, and her mood was calm and unhurried.
"Wang Chao, could you slow down a bit? I'm a little scared," Wang Zuxian whispered.
With over two thousand steps on the staircase, Wang Chao's pace would quickly take them to the end. She wanted to spend a little more time with him.
"Okay." Wang Chao nodded and immediately slowed his pace.
Wang Zuxian was secretly delighted.
Resting against Wang Chao's back, she took out her phone and took a selfie.
In the photo, she had a radiant smile, and Wang Chao's back was the only visible part.
Wang Zuxian edited the photo on her phone slightly and posted it on Weibo with the caption, "Twisted my foot while hiking today, luckily Big Brother carried me down the mountain. His back feels so safe, pure bliss!"
After posting, she immediately put her phone away, and a mischievous glint appeared in her beautiful eyes.
In reality, her foot wasn't injured at all. She had deliberately claimed to be injured and unable to move to have Wang Chao carry her, hoping to gain more alone time with him.
"Wang Chao, will you still fall into my trap this time?" Wang Zuxian chuckled victoriously in her mind.
As soon as Wang Zuxian's fans saw her post on Weibo, the comments section exploded.
Instantly, all of Wang Zuxian's fans rushed to the post, flooding the comments:
"Who the hell is this guy? How dare he defile my goddess?"
"Find him for me, I want to kill him!"
"I want to carry our goddess too!"
"Who is this person? Is Zuxian announcing her relationship?"
"Isn't this the Tianmen Stairway in Baiyun Mountain? Is our goddess at Baiyun Mountain? I want to go there too!"
"Hurry, find out who this person is!"
"The hatred of stealing someone's wife is irreconcilable. Don't stop me, I want to challenge him one-on-one, I want to kill him!"
The entire internet was in an uproar!
All of Wang Zuxian's fans were furious and enraged.
Especially the male fans, their hearts shattered into pieces. The crazed fans threatened to kill the man, and their angry voices crashed the Weibo servers.
Moreover, many fans immediately drove to Baiyun Mountain, hoping to catch a glimpse of their goddess.
Baiyun Mountain suddenly became a popular tourist spot.
"What is Zuxian doing? How could she privately post such a photo on the official platform?"
At the same time, Wang Zuxian's management company was in chaos. The manager was furious and shouted, "Quick, contact her immediately and tell her to come back to the set for filming."
"And notify the PR department right away. We must handle this matter with absolute confidentiality!"
"Remember, the PR department must release a statement declaring that Wang Zuxian is single!"
With the manager's furious orders, the entire company immediately sprung into action.
The manager stood there in anger, gritting their teeth. "Has Wang Zuxian gone crazy? Why would she do such a thing?"
"Being seen as single is so valuable now, and yet she is so careless with her reputation, posting such a dynamic. She's practically driving her fans away!"
"Damn it, doesn't she want to continue making money?"
After a moment of contemplation, the manager finally realized and shouted, "Quick, log into Zuxian's Weibo account and delete that post."
In contrast to the furious manager, all the media reporters went into a frenzy.
All the entertainment journalists went mad.
"Quick, edit the content. We must seize the largest share of the traffic!"
"Wang Zuxian hiking with a stranger? No, that headline won't work. Change it to 'Wang Zuxian Wearing Yoga Pants Secretly Meets Mysterious Man,' take it in a suggestive direction."
"Editor-in-chief, my headline is: 'Wang Zuxian in Yoga Pants Hiking, Losing Her Innocence?'"
"Yes, yes, that's exactly it. Think of a few more catchy headlines, we must attract attention and capture the traffic!"
On this morning, all the entertainment journalists were fueled with enthusiasm, editing and exaggerating, portraying the relationship between Wang Chao and Wang Zuxian in an unsightly manner.
Furthermore, in order to garner more traffic, some reporters even speculated about many male celebrities in the entertainment industry, attracting attention.
A scandal storm was brewing, sweeping through the entire entertainment industry.
"Oh my god, is this for real? Wang Zuxian is so daring!"
"Damn it, who is this person?"
"Wang Zuxian, such a stunning beauty, wouldn't even spare a glance for Dong Cong's pursuit, but now she's wearing yoga pants and hiking with this man. Are they going to have a tryst?"
"Damn, who could have gotten this goddess? It couldn't be that guy surnamed Zhang, right?"
"No way, Wang Zuxian has high standards, she wouldn't be interested in that guy surnamed Zhang. There must be someone else."
Not only the entertainment reporters, but the entire entertainment industry was in an uproar.
Many male celebrities looked at the back of Wang Chao's head with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
While the internet and the entire entertainment industry were exploding with discussions about Wang Chao's head, Wang Chao had already carried Wang Zuxian down the mountain and helped her into a Toyota Alphard.
Sitting in the car, Wang Zuxian looked at Wang Chao and said, "Brother Wang, bear in mind our agreement, okay?"
"Sure, see you then," Wang Chao nodded.
Wang Zuxian nodded with satisfaction and signaled the driver to start the car.
At this moment, she was already looking forward to her third meeting with Wang Chao.
After seeing her off, Wang Chao drove back to the old town area. After completing the transfer procedures for the house with the real estate agent, he finally returned home and found Zhao Kun, saying in a low voice, "Kun, please take care of a body at Baiyun Mountain."
"Huh? Who did you kill again?" Zhao Kun was taken aback.
The next second, he was a bit confused.
Why did I say "again"?
