This novel is only hosted on Foxaholic, copies found elsewhere are either stolen or plagiarized.
Yu Qiao is the current popular teen idol. He unexpectedly gained countless fans after he starred in an idol drama last year. Ah Zhao didn’t have any good impression of him since it had recently reported that Yu Qiao’s fans had trampled over his Brother Chen for some time… although they immediately got criticized by fans who stopped them from continuing making trouble but he had already made an impression that others in the circle was talking about. Sister Shao was said to have thrown a big tantrum over this matter, saying if it was not because you wouldn’t accept any acting role presently, when would these people ever run wild, so it serves you right to get diss!
Right. Brother Chen had not accepted any movie roles since the beginning of last year.
It was also due to this incident that Zhou Jianchen was aware of Yu Qiao.
“What should we do now?” Ah Zhao was somewhat in a dilemma since Brother Chen wanted to return home quietly. But they didn’t expect Yu Qiao to appear in the airport at the same time where so many fans and media were alerted that the exit was blocked …. If they are to go out now, who knows how much frenzied this will cause.
Moreover, Liang Yin was also here.
“Let me go first.” Liang Yin took the lead and said it out after she had figured out what had happened. They naturally can’t go out together. Having said that, she went to take over her cart.
Ah Zhao didn’t dare to loosen his grip and turned to look at Zhou Jianchen.
Liang Yin also turned to look at him.
Looking at her, Zhou Jianchen suddenly recalled those ‘washed-out film empress’ remarks which he had seen earlier.
He knew what went through Ah Zhao’s mind too since those words were truly unpleasant. He didn’t dare to think what will be written if she is to go out alone and get caught by the media.
“Ah Zhao,” He turned towards Ah Zhao while pondering, “Is Ah Xian here yet?”
Ah Xian, his other assistant who had been contacted earlier to come pick them up.
“He has already arrived and is waiting in the parking lot.” Ah Zhao answered truthfully but he didn’t know why he would ask.
“Then you take her to the car first.”
“Ah?” Ah Zhao was completely surprised.
There was some bewilderment in Liang Yin’s eyes too.
“I’ll take the taxi home myself.” Saying that, Zhou Jianchen already turned his head and walked away with his baggage cart.
“Zhou Jianchen!”
“Brother Chen!”
They wanted to stop him, but Zhou Jianchen had already left without looking back.
Ah Zhao wanted to chase after him, but Liang Yin was by his side. Under this predicament, he finally looked at Liang Yin, “Miss Liang, let’s go.”
Liang Yin was still looking at Zhou Jianchen who walked away without second thoughts, seemingly not concerned with whatever that might happen ahead.
He however is Zhou Jianchen. Who knows how much ruckus he will cause by just pushing the baggage cart out and not to mention, he is still going to take a taxi alone….
**********
Zhou Jianchen walked all the way and as expected, the moment he stepped out of the VIP channel, he was immediately recognized.
Next to the exit was full of people. Young female fans were holding up posters, light boards, flowers and gifts as they surrounded Yu Qiao. They were overjoyed with screams and cheerings. There were reporters taking pictures non-stop and scribbling notes of the scene right in front while starting to think of remarkable headlines.
Just at this moment, out of nowhere someone shouted, “Zhou Jianchen” when an innumerable pair of eyes besides him immediately shifted over and set-off loud cheerings of “Zhou Jianchen.”
“Zhou Jianchen! It is Zhou Jianchen!”
“Quick, look over there! That’s Zhou Jianchen.”
“Zhou Jianchen! It really is Zhou Jianchen! Ah ah ah!”
“……..”
All eyes and the direction of the cellphones’ cameras were drawn over. The reporters were pleasantly surprised. Originally their assignments were just to cover the teen idol, Yu Qiao but who would have imagined they would unexpectedly meet the great Film Emperor Zhou. How could they not be excited with exhilarating joy!
The affairs between Zhou Jianchen and Xu Lili had blown up all the major websites in the last two days. How many people had wished to get a response from the parties involved, but they couldn’t even catch a glimpse of their shadows, let alone the person themselves!
Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, Zhou Jianchen had just appeared right before them!
There were still many people around Yu Qiao, however more and more people began to swarm and rushed towards Zhou Jianchen.
Zhou Jianchen was now the focal attention, yet he just walked out from the passageway imposingly. With an overcoat and sunglasses on, he pushed the cart out with a smile around the corners of his mouth, looking totally amiable and approachable.
A reporter had already rushed forward and eagerly asked, “Mr. Zhou, is the matter between you and Miss Xu true? Miss Xu is now uncontactable, do you know where is she? Mr. Zhou, was your ‘Ah’ a response to Miss Xu?” The questions just came one after the other, straight to the point.
The crowd had completely swarmed over and encircled him. Zhou Jianchen stopped before taking off his sunglasses and waved his hands to calm the fans around him, “Pay attention to safety, pay attention to safety.” He seemingly didn’t hear what the reporter had just asked him.
He had a good temperament that in an instant, his demeanor was different. He currently looked bright and gentle, making people feel heartfelt tenderness and closeness.
Which totally has become a different person from a moment ago.
There were already cries of joy in the crowd.
The jostling a moment ago had gradually subsided.
“Mr. Zhou, did you just return from abroad?” Another reporter inquired closely.
“Yes.” Zhou Jianchen didn’t turn a deaf ear this time, instead turned to look at the reporter, “I took some vacation a while ago to go abroad for some fun. I originally thought of returning quietly, but didn’t expect to be caught by everyone.” There was again a display of a helpless smile between his words.
The crowd laughed at this answer and Zhou Jianchen at this moment, has become a humorous person again.
Most people remember him as unruly and unrestrained but the truth is he can do all those things that others do in the entertainment industry.
Yet his eyes merely looked elsewhere through the crowd when he joked.
By the side of the aisle, Ah Zhao and Liang Yin were leaving quietly.
When he looked over there, Liang Yin, coincidentally, turned her head to look back too. Through the crowd, the two people’s eyes met but soon, Zhou Jianchen averted his gaze to face the crowd again.
There was no more commotion in the crowd as everyone was moved by his gentle smile. How rare it was that they could get so close to their idol, so everyone gathered closely around him and refused to leave.
Of course, there were still reporters who refused to give up, “Mr. Zhou, so the person in Xu Lili’s photo is not you?” Xu Lili posted the photo yesterday and he said he has been abroad this whole time, seemingly denying that they were together these two days. Under the mistaken impression, it was natural to think that the person in the photo was not him.
Turning his head, Zhou Jianchen did not acknowledge nor deny it but merely uttered with a smile, “My talent agent has responded for me.”
He looked at the group of fans who were overwhelmed with joy again after he said that then spoke with a smile, “I’m going to take a taxi now, can you guys let me pass?” As for the reporters’ persistent questioning, he paid no heed to them again.
His eyes were sincere with earnest pleas, so how could the fans around him bear it. With hands on their faces, they nodded their heads and gave way to both sides, and even thoughtfully pushed those reporters to the outer circle.
As for Yu Qiao and the others by the side, they could only retreat seeing the incoming crowd.
At that time, he was surrounded by no more than 20 to 30 people.
Zhou Jianchen, however, didn’t seem to notice the presence of such a person. Surrounded by the crowd, he moved forward. All along he was smiling and lowering his head listening earnestly to the enthusiastic fans’ questions around him as he walked past him …
Before he even walked out of the airport entrance, the topic of ‘Zhou Jianchen’s unexpected appearance at the airport’ had long exploded on the internet.
