Chapter 19 The Noble Little Prince
"I'm rather curious, what kind of girl could ruin our plans time and time again, and what kind of girl could keep Lu Jinye by his side?"
"I understand, sir. I'll send someone to investigate her identity immediately!" With that, the call ended.
Under the moonlight of the dark night, a black minivan emerged from the secluded alley and sped off onto the wide main road.
In the back two rows of the car, the young fans squeezed together with difficulty.
They dared not speak or even breathe, staring at Lu Jinye for a moment, then at Wen Ni who was wearing a mask!
Today is truly a day of celebration! They actually got to sit in the same car as Lu Jinye, something they would never have dared to dream of!
"What happened tonight..."
Assistant Xiao Wu smiled obsequiously, pondering how to shut these fans up as she spoke.
"Don't worry, assistant! We absolutely will not tell anyone about what happened tonight, even if you kill us!"
"Uh... it's not as serious as killing them..." Xiao Wu didn't expect that they would turn against him?
"It was all because we overestimated ourselves and had a brain fart that we did such an outrageous thing!"
The young fan's repentance was extremely sincere.
"How could a woman as capable as our bodyguard be just a pretty face! With her by Brother Lu's side, he's practically safe!"
"That's right!"
"This sister and our brother are a match made in heaven! If possible, we would wholeheartedly agree to have you as our sister-in-law!"
The little fan's eyes were very sincere.
"...You may agree, but I don't."
Wen Ni pursed her lips and denied it outright.
He patted the driver's seat to signal him to stop, then swiftly opened one of the car doors.
"Alright, you can get off here. There are bus stops nearby and it's easy to get a taxi."
"Okay! Thank you so much, Brother Lu!" The little fans bowed repeatedly, then looked at Wen Ni and said, "Sister-in-law, when we get back, we'll definitely make sure to clear things up for you in front of the other fans!"
"Hey...don't yell like that."
Wen Ni tilted her head, her eyes behind the mask carrying a warning.
"Well then, thank you for today, beautiful lady! Goodbye, beautiful lady! Goodbye, Brother Lu! Goodbye, assistant!"
The young fans shuddered at the stare and quickly changed their tune.
This time, Wen Ni nodded in satisfaction and closed the car door behind her.
Another night of chaos and turmoil
Assistant Xiao Wu had experienced similar situations countless times with Lu Jinye, and quickly composed himself.
He glanced at Wen Ni, who was gazing out the window, then pointed at Lu Jinye, who was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, and asked in a low voice:
"Nini, isn't our Brother Lu handsome?"
"Handsome? I've never seen anyone more handsome than him," Wen Ni answered without hesitation!
Lu Jinye's eyelashes trembled slightly.
"So you didn't agree when the little fans called you 'sister-in-law'?" Xiao Wu joked with a hint of teasing. "If it were someone else, wouldn't they be jumping up and down nodding?"
"But I'm not bad-looking either," Wen Ni said, resting her chin on her hand, her tone lazy and slightly teasing. "Why didn't he jump up and down to agree?"
"Just because he's Lu Jinye, does that mean every woman has to fawn over him? That logic doesn't work with me."
"..." Xiao Wu fell silent. After thinking about it carefully, what she said didn't seem to make any sense.
"It's so noisy."
The three words "coldly" uttered by Lu Jinye instantly lowered the temperature inside the car, and the air seemed to freeze for a long time...
Smooth journey.
The driver drove the car directly to the studio's underground parking garage.
"Oh dear, time is of the essence! Let's hurry up and get ready!" Xiao Wu hurriedly opened the car door.
"etc."
Wen Ni suddenly reached out her hand.
Her warm palms touched Lu Jinye's smooth forehead. Feeling his cool temperature, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Hmm, the fever is gone."
He lowered his eyes slightly, his face darkened, and dodged her hand, taking a long stride to quickly get out of the car!
"Tsk, what's gotten into him this time?" Wen Ni frowned, sensing that he wasn't in a good mood.
"Uh... I don't think it's targeting you. Every New Year's Eve, Master Lu isn't in a good mood. His parents are very busy and almost never spend the holiday with him. Only his grandfather and younger brother keep him company..."
Xiao Wu shouldered his backpack, waved to Wen Ni, and said, "Nini, I'll talk to you later. I'm going to go change with Master Lu! You rest for a bit, then hurry up and come up so you don't miss Master Lu's performance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Wu chased after Lu Jinye's retreating figure like a gust of wind.
Wen Ni was left pondering his words, lost in thought.
The studio must be incredibly busy at this time, and she wouldn't be able to help much even if she went, so she simply stayed in her car and took a nap.
She didn't get up until around ten o'clock, and groggily checked the time.
Shouldn't it be Lu Jinye's turn to take the stage soon?
She grabbed a coat and draped it over herself, forgetting even to bring her mask, and slowly made her way from the underground parking garage to the broadcasting building.
Anyway, nobody knows her, and there are no cameras to capture her. She can just stop wearing the mask; it's given her face all that stuffiness it's causing pimples!
The closer you get to the stage, the clearer the laughter from the audience becomes, mingling with the busy conversations of the backstage staff.
Wen Ni never liked watching these TV programs. Today, she was just curious about what it would be like for someone as taciturn and deep-thinking as Lu Jinye to appear on stage.
Stage waiting area
Wen Ni walked in calmly and leisurely, as if she and the actors running and bustling around her existed in two different dimensions.
Amidst deafening applause, the stage lights suddenly dimmed, and the clamor from the audience gradually subsided...
A spotlight shone on the center of the stage, landing on the incredibly handsome man!
He wore a silver-gray shirt and trousers, which made his figure appear even more upright, like a proud pine tree.
A head of soft, jet-black hair cascaded down, revealing a smooth forehead. Her eyes, which seemed to hold the stars and the sea, slowly opened. The shimmering light in her eyes resembled the ice and snow of winter, aloof and proud, yet containing a sense of brokenness!
Even a noble prince cannot escape worldly entanglements.
Following the wire upwards
He was pulled into the air, like a caged bird bound and entangled by fate, unable to break free. His sorrow and helplessness gripped everyone's heart!
The accompaniment then begins, its sweetness like a clear spring, bringing vitality...
The silver microphone gently touched his lips, and his young voice was deep and resonant, as if it had experienced the vicissitudes of time, telling its story through his singing!
"I was hiding in the darkness when a beam of light suddenly woke me up."
You ask what it is? It's the warm sunshine, the rainbow after the rain, and the dim candlelight that lit me in the cold night.
The gentle gaze of my mother, the firm grip of my friend's hands. They soothe my shattered dreams and build a fortress of courage.
I too have been lost in the darkness, drifting and wandering like a lone boat, but that ray of light pierced through the clouds and became a lighthouse guiding my way.
Let the storm be stronger, and the road ahead be longer.
"Run towards where the light is..."
