That popularity, that presence, it was no less than Qin Liangzhi!

  Almost everyone turned around and caught sight of Li Xueqing being surrounded by a crowd of fans.

  She had a huge pair of shades on, revealing just her exquisite chin.

  She was busy signing off autographs while making her way down with a smile.

  Cheng Su pouted as she saw what was going on.

  Bai Yuan saw it as well and asked, “Li Xueqing didn’t seem to have much going on recently, how did she get so popular?”

  But before Cheng Su even said anything, Li Beinian’s fan responded, “They’re all bought!”

  The girl looked at that group of people and said to Li Beinian, “My classmate is working freelance, it’s a hundred yuan a day!”

  Li Beinian smiled. “Is your classmate in the crowd?”

  “Yup.” The girl pointed at two people. “The boy in the grey top and the girl in the red dress. They’re both my classmates.”

  \r \r \r

  “Tsk.” Cheng Su scoffed. “Sister Nian, they’re going to be at it for a while.”

  “Let’s go, it’s about to begin.” Bai Yuan glanced at his watch. “It’s just a few minutes to go.”

  Li Beinian noticed that his watch was a branded one, and a pretty sleek design at that.

  “Ooh, this watch looks cool!” Cheng Su reached out to stroke it. “You just got it?”

  Bai Yuan smiled upon hearing the compliments. “My boss gave it to me. Good stuff, eh?”

  With that, he glanced at Li Beinian.

  Gave it to him? More like a bribe.

  It wasn’t all that easy to get a military soldier to “downgrade” to a bodyguard.

  Li Beinian did not mind very much, however, as she walked towards the seats.

  Already seated, Qin Liangzhi’s eyes lit up when he saw Li Beinian approaching.

  Li Beinian was in a simple outfit today—a white midi dress and white sandals, with light makeup on. She just needed that little bit of touchup for all her already beautiful features to be enhanced.

  Her slender figure and attractive looks stood out in the crowd.

  Qin Liangzhi waved at her. “Beinian, over here.”

  Cheng Su was already much less enthusiastic when she saw Qin Liangzhi now. In fact, having been around Bai Yuan so much, she was starting to feel that Qin Liangzhi was way too fair as a man.

  Li Beinian smiled and walked over.

  But before she sat down, she saw Li Xueqing strutting towards them in her heels.

  She appeared very surprised to see Li Beinian as she took her shades off. “Nian Nian, you’re here too? I didn’t see your fans, I thought you weren’t around today.”

  Her eyebrows were so arched they looked like they could fly.

  Cheng Su was evidently annoyed at her, but Li Beinian seemed calm about it.

  She looked at Li Xueqing and smiled. “I’ve been rather busy.”

  “Take a seat.” Qin Liangzhi looked at them, but his gaze landed on Li Beinian eventually. “The other party didn’t seem too happy about the shoot yesterday. After the news conference, we’ll have to go for another round.”

  “Oh?” Li Beinian sat down. “My manager didn’t inform me.”

  “I just received news of it too.” Qin Liangzhi’s eyes were beautiful as it reflected the light. “I have something on tomorrow, so I can only make it today. We’ll do it later?”

  “Sure.” ……

  The way they conversed with each other made Li Xueqing feel and seem like she wasn’t there.

  Li Xueqing was upset about it and glanced towards the media crew.

  Her assistant Yu Tian came over and gave her a nod. Li Xueqing smiled in response.
