Chapter 5 Am I really that popular now?

Perhaps sensing Luo Jiayin's gaze, the handsome man tilted his head slightly.

Luo Jiayin realized her lapse in composure, coughed lightly, and looked away from him.

The elevator quickly reached the first floor. Luo Jiayin and Yu Jiu didn't dare to delay and quickly left the hotel. Luo Jia's nanny van drove towards the police station.

...

After leaving the police station, Luo Jiayin, fully armed and under Yu Jiu's cover, quickly slipped into the nanny van.

The car slowly started, carrying the two of them straight to the filming location. Only then did their tense bodies relax, slumping against the back seat of the car.

"I have to say, Luo Jia, you're really something! I was terrified, how did you dare to come out?"

Yu Jiu slumped to one side, patting his chest with lingering fear.

"Aren't you afraid she might do something crazy? You even let her hug you. What if she's out of her mind and has a weapon on her?"

Yu Jiu kept muttering to himself, which really gave Luo Jiayin a headache.

She nudged Yu Jiu gently with the elbow closest to him: "What are you afraid of? I know what I'm doing."

Yu Jiu glared at Luo Jiayin with annoyance, wanting to see what kind of "reasonable" explanation Luo Jiayin could come up with.

Luo Jiayin pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, and reached into her pocket.

It was the pocket where she had been keeping her hands.

She fumbled around in her pocket for a moment, then pulled something out and put it in Yu Jiu's hand.

Yu Jiu looked down at his hand in confusion and saw that it was a small sprayer.

She turned the bottle around and saw the words written on the packaging: pepper spray.

Yu Jiu's lips twitched involuntarily: "Pepper spray...you're quite self-aware..."

"That's right, I bought it a while ago just in case."

Luo Jiayin crossed her arms, not even lifting her eyelids, and closed her eyes to rest.

Because of this commotion, the filming of Luo Jiayin's part was delayed that night, which meant that they would have to stay up all night.

Looking at Luo Jiayin's tired face, Yu Jiu realized that she must not have really fallen asleep in the hotel that afternoon.

Yu Jiu felt a pang of heartache at the thought of being frightened again late at night by sasaeng fans.

"Luo Jia, how about I talk to the director and you rest tonight, and we can reshoot today's scenes later?"

Luo Jiayin still didn't open her eyes. She opened her mouth, about to say "No need," when suddenly the car swerved sharply. Luo Jiayin and Yu Jiu were jolted and immediately lost their balance, swaying from side to side.

Then came a sudden stop. Luo Jiayin and Yu Jiu, who had just helped each other to settle down in the back seat, were thrown forward again by inertia, inevitably bumping and jostling each other.

"What's going on, Xiao Wang!" Luo Jiayin shouted towards the driver's seat.

Yu Jiu was so dizzy from being thrown around that she wondered if she was sitting in Luo Jiayin's van or on a roller coaster at an amusement park...

Before Yu Jiu could react, he heard the driver, Xiao Wang, say weakly, "Teacher Luo Jia...did you...offend someone...?"

"ah??"

"Our car was just cut off, and now the cars outside are almost surrounding us."

"Surround?" Luo Jiayin asked, puzzled.

"Yes, Professor Luo Jia, there were probably... about ten... fifteen vans following us around here...!!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiayin and Yu Jiu were both taken aback, and then they exchanged a glance at each other simultaneously.

Offending people? That's impossible. Luo Jiayin's reputation and personality are widely recognized as excellent in the entertainment industry.

Even if there was an unintentional conflict of interest with someone, it shouldn't be serious enough to warrant such a large-scale attack and killing.

This is an elevated highway...

If there was anyone who hated Luo Jiayin so much they wanted to get rid of him, both Luo Jiayin and Yu Jiu simultaneously read one name in each other's eyes—Luo Huaimin.

Could it be that her identity has been discovered? Was she sent by Luo Huaimin's side?

That shouldn't be... so sudden?

Moreover, would Luo Huaimin, that henpecked husband, have the guts to kill someone in the street?

Just as Luo Jiayin was filled with doubts, a commotion seemed to have arisen outside.

"Luo Jia!!! Luo Jia, I know you're in there!"

"Luo Jia! We love you!!"

Sitting in the van, Luo Jiayin and Yu Jiu, who had just been looking serious, looked at each other in bewilderment.

"I have a feeling... this might also be... a sasaeng fan..."

Yu Jiu, with a mournful face, revealed his guess.

Luo Jiayin was both amused and exasperated: "Wait... am I... that popular now???"

Whether it's popular or not, Xiao Wang doesn't know, and it has nothing to do with him.

But as a professional and good driver, he only knew that if things continued like this, their car might be in danger of being rear-ended.

"Teacher Luo Jia, this can't go on, our car is going to be stuck in traffic... Ouch!!"

Before Xiao Wang could finish speaking, he let out a scream, and then the car slammed on the brakes and came to a stop.

"Wow... that was so exciting, just two inches away..." After the car stopped, Xiao Wang turned on the hazard lights, leaned back, and let out a long breath.

Luo Jiayin and Yu Jiu were completely unprepared and were thrown off balance by the sudden stop.

Yu Jiu reached out to protect Luo Jiayin, but bumped his head on the car window in the process.

Yu Jiu disregarded everything else and hurriedly went to check on Luo Jiayin's condition.

Seeing that she was safe and sound, without any bumps or bruises, Yu Jiu finally felt relieved.

Luo Jiayin stared silently at the red mark on Yu Jiu's forehead, her anger rising uncontrollably.

Before Yu Jiu could react, she opened the car door with a loud bang, panting heavily, her face full of anger, and then strode out of the van.

"It's over..." Yu Jiu thought to himself.

Luo Jiayin got angry, and it was terrifying, but she couldn't stop her...

Xiao Wang turned around when he heard the door open, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw Luo Jiayin getting out of the car.

Although he didn't understand the entertainment industry, was it really okay for Luo Jia, a popular idol at the moment, to go out like this?

Xiao Wang glanced at Yu Jiu and thought to himself, "Why doesn't Assistant Yu stop him? With Luo Jia's fiery temper, isn't he afraid something will happen?"

However, when the two looked at each other, although Yu Jiu didn't say anything, Xiao Wang could tell from her expression.

Well, that was a bit unexpected; I couldn't stop him.

"Are you taking pictures of me with your phone?" The tone was indifferent, and Yu Jiu recognized Luo Jiayin's voice.

"Oh my~ I'm a big fan of yours! What's wrong with taking a picture of you when you're so famous? It's not like you'll lose a piece of your flesh."

"I ran into Luo Jia on the street, live broadcast. Everyone come and see, this is your favorite idol! Is this the kind of quality he has? I can't even take a picture? How can he treat his fans so badly!"
