“It’s old news from a long time ago. What laptop do you want to buy? We’ll buy it now.” Xie Yu smiled gently and looked at Song Liangjiang, as he waited for her to make the decision.

“Can you go to the mall?”

Xie Yu chuckled again. “Do you have some sort of misunderstanding about celebrities? Airport pickups are not only a benefit for fans, but also one of the jobs of celebrities. How do you think those fans know about celebrities’ flight details? There are so many people in the country. How many fans can there be? Who would know if you don’t announce that you’re a celebrity when you are on the streets?”

Song Liangjiang didn’t fully understand, but it made sense.

At the birthday banquet, Madam Chu could only grit her teeth and admit that Chu Jingmo was already married. The couple had just been fooling around.

As for the other ladies, the way they looked at Madam Chu changed. Previously, it was Madam Chu who wanted to matchmake her son.

The two boys who entered quietly happened to overhear it. Little Rice Bun was busy eating, while Little Rice Ball frowned. Was Mommy not in a relationship but married to him?

Although he and his older brother’s statuses had become legitimate, a divorce seemed to be more troublesome than breaking up.

“Little Rice Ball, it’s that handsome uncle,” Little Rice Bun reminded his brother quietly.

Little Rice Ball frowned and grabbed his brother’s hand. “Come on, we have to go back to school or Mommy will find out.”

“Huh?” Little Rice Bun was confused. Didn’t his brother bring him here?

“But I want…” The boy kept looking back inside, but allowed his brother to lead him away.

“I’ll buy you something delicious when we leave this place later. Mommy said that all good-looking people are liars, right?”

Little Rice Bun tilted his head as he tried to recall.

But didn’t his younger brother bring him here?”

Both adult and child were weird.

At the banquet, Li Chuan walked past the crowd and whispered into Chu Jingmo’s ear, “I think I saw Little Rice Bun just now. I think he brought a classmate over, but he left again.”

“Where?” Chu Jingmo said as he went out with Li Chuan. However, when he reached the entrance, he only saw the back of a taxi leaving. Chu Jingmo frowned slightly. “Record the license plate number and get the car.”

Were brainless people all so brave? How dare he take a taxi here himself?

Xie Yu reckoned that he wasn’t famous to the extent that the entire country knew about him. So as they were buying the laptop, other than a few people sizing him up out of curiosity, there was indeed no commotion.

After they left, nothing else happened either.

“Well, I told you,” said Xie Yu, sounding smug.

“Are you not that famous? Are you lying to me?” Song Liangjiang remembered that she had seen army of fans on television when celebrities appeared. Why was there no one?

Xie Yu leaned on the steering wheel and laughed out loud. For some reason, he felt that Song Liangjiang’s innocent appearance was very cute.

He suddenly stopped laughing. “Am I repaying my debt too quickly? How am I going to look for you in the future?”

Song Liangjiang didn’t understand. “Why do you need a reason to look for me?”

Song Liangjiang answered him casually, but Xie Yu’s expression had changed. In the end, he restrained his expression and gentleness returned. “Okay, this is what you said.”

She was still fiddling with her new gadget and was in an excellent mood. “Of course I said so.”

“Aren’t you afraid that Chu Jingmo will be angry?”

“Why should I be afraid that he’ll be angry?” Song Liangjiang looked at Xie Yu in confusion. “He’s not my father. Do I need to report to him that I’m meeting friends?”

Song Liangjiang spoke naturally. Xie Yu couldn’t help but light a candle for his good friend silently. The girl really didn’t care about him.

Did that mean he still had a chance?

Passers-by might not know Xie Yu, but Xie Yu’s fans would recognize him in a heartbeat even if he was wearing sunglasses and a mask. Furthermore, he had taken off his sunglasses this entire time.

His fans instantly wailed and sobbed. Their idol was actually secretly dating behind their backs.

Among these fans was Song Liangjiang’s senior, Tang Yi.

After Song Liangjiang got out of the car, she bade goodbye to Xie Yu. Then, she received a message from Tang Yi along with a video.

Tang Yi typed, ‘That scumbag Xie Yu is actually in a relationship? Did I buy the products he endorses and spend money on him so that he could spend it on another woman?’

Song Liangjiang replied with a question mark.

Song Liangjiang typed, ‘You like idols?’

Tang Yi typed, ‘Is that the point? Where do you think my salary has gone to?’

Song Liangjiang typed ‘You like Xie Yu!’

Song Liangjiang watched as Xie Yu’s car drove away, and wondered if she should call and ask him for an autograph to mend her senior’s broken heart.

Wait, dating?

She suddenly felt that something was wrong. She clicked on the video sent by Tang Yi and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

There was only her back in the video. It wasn’t very clear. The focus of the person who had secretly taken the video was on Xie Yu. Everything about him was captured clearly, including when he took off his sunglasses and talked to her. Although she really couldn’t detect the gentleness in his eyes?

Song Liangjiang ended the video and started typing.

Tang Yi typed, ‘If I find out who that woman is, I’ll kill her and get her to pay me back!’

Tang Yi typed, ‘And I have a feeling that she seems a little familiar.’

Song Liangjiang instantly deleted all the words she had typed. She looked down at the gown she was wearing. Thank God, Tang Yi had never seen her in a gown.

Chu Jingmo, who was following the taxi to school, had also seen the video. Li Chuan had shown it to him.

Chu Jingmo looked at the ‘intimate’ interaction in the video and his expression was beyond ugly.

The taxi in front arrived at the school. Chu Jingmo watched from afar as three children got out of the car. Two boys and a girl. The other two must be his classmates. He was relieved to see them go in.

“Head to Song Liangjiang’s university.”

Li Chuan turned the car around. Everyone knew where Atlas University was.

“And find out if anyone is hanging around with Little Rice Bun.”

“President, are you afraid that he will be used by someone with ulterior motives?” After all, Little Rice Bun’s actions were indeed bizarre.

But it seemed that Miss Song didn’t have any idea at all. The main reason was that she wasn’t that smart.

When Song Liangjiang returned home, she changed her clothes and waited for her senior to vent her frustration over the phone.

“Hurry up and leave his fanclub…” The doorbell rang. She had just begun to remove her gown as she kicked one of her high heels away. “Wait a minute, I think Professor Wen is here to look for Madam. Let me open the door.”

Song Liangjiang held her phone and tried to undo the buckle of her other high heel with her hand. The strap of her black gown fell off her shoulder, and she hopped to open the door. “Professor Wen, Madam…”
