Chapter 2283 Foul!
The man's excited shouts left everyone present stunned.
Even though the three of them didn't react, the man on the ground continued to bounce like a spring, excitedly talking.
"I spotted you when you were walking down the street! I can't mistake you! Miss Luming, even if you turned to ashes, I would still recognize you!"
"Miss Lu Ming! I loved your performance in episode six the most! I think you were exactly like that little nurse from the TV show! Some people online are saying your character is a saint, but I think that's all bullshit! They don't understand the charm of your portrayal of that character at all!"
"Miss Lu Ming! I...I'm a huge fan of yours, could you please sign my autograph?"
"Miss Lu Ming, I really like you so much! My dad likes you too! My grandpa likes you too, all three of us watch your dramas!!!"
"Miss Lu Ming————"
The alleyway was suddenly filled with excited shouts from men.
Little White stares blankly at Deer Cry beside him.
"Uh... Miss Luming, is this... one of your fans?"
“Well…it seems so…” Lu Ming looked at the man on the ground, and for a moment he was also a little confused.
Xiao Bai rubbed his forehead, listening to the almost fanatical voice beside him, and let out a long sigh.
It turned out to be the case.
It seems this man is a fanatical fan of Lu Ming, so fanatical that he can see through her disguise and recognize her true form at a glance. His following of his group had nothing to do with him; he was simply after Lu Ming...
It turns out I was just being delusional...
Thinking of this, Xiao Bai felt a little embarrassed, and her face turned slightly red.
"Master, what do we do now?" Loki asked, holding a phone in one hand and a dagger in the other.
“…While stalking isn’t a good thing…if he’s a fan of Miss Luming…we can’t just send him to the police station.” Xiaobai shook his head and said to Loki, “Loki, untie him.”
“Alright.” Loki raised his dagger and slashed the man's body several times.
The rope binding the man broke inch by inch, and his limbs, which were tied behind his back, fell to the ground with a thud.
The man quickly got up from the ground, covered in dust and dirt, but there wasn't a trace of anger about being tied up on his face. He wiped the sweat from his brow and looked at Lu Ming with a satisfied and silly grin.
"If you're not a bad person, then don't sneak around following us like this," Xiaobai said to the man.
"I'm sorry...hehe...I, actually, when I saw you from afar, I wasn't sure if you were Miss Luming...Besides, Miss Luming was wearing a disguise today, and the streets were full of people. If I revealed Miss Luming's identity, it might cause her trouble..." The man laughed awkwardly, raising his hand to grab his hair. "But I didn't want to leave, so I don't know why I...I couldn't help but follow you."
Good guy.
I'm still a rational fan who isn't entirely rational.
Looking at the man's honest smile, Xiaobai didn't know what to say for a moment. After thinking for a while, she simply took a step back and gently nudged Luming's lower back.
When it comes to talking to fans, Lu Ming, as a celebrity, should have more experience than Xiao Bai.
Lu Ming was pushed by Xiao Bai to stop in front of the man.
“…Hello.” Looking at the man’s smiling face, Lu Ming hesitated for a while before taking off her mask and speaking to him.
"You really are Miss Lu Ming! I didn't mistake you!" Upon seeing Lu Ming's face, the man jumped up and down excitedly several times. "Miss Lu Ming, I, I've finally met you! Don't worry! I won't tell anyone else you're here!"
"Mm." Lu Ming nodded, showing his gratitude, and extended his palm to the man.
The man looked at Lu Ming's fair and delicate hands, and a series of expressions flashed across his face, including surprise, ecstasy, and fascination. However, he quickly suppressed these expressions with a restrained look.
"No...no, how could someone like me shake hands with the pure Miss Luming...it would defile her! Only a beautiful girl can touch Miss Luming..." The man quickly wiped his hands on his clothes, then nervously looked around, pulling out a stack of beautifully preserved autographed papers and a pen from his clothes, stammering as he sought Luming's opinion, "Um...if it's alright..."
"Okay." Lu Ming took the paper and pen from the man, lowered his head and wrote his name on the autograph paper, then handed it back to the man with both hands. "Thank you for your support."
"Thank you! Thank you! I thank you too! I... I will keep this safe, and this pen too, I... I will pass it on!" The man carefully took the paper and pen from Lu Ming, and excitedly babbled as he looked at the signature on them.
"Miss Lu Ming is off work now, so as a fan, don't cause her any trouble," Xiao Bai reminded the man. "Now that you've got the autograph, it's about time you went home."
The man's eyes immediately filled with reluctance when he heard he was going home.
However, rational fans are rational fans after all. Even though they didn't want to leave, in order not to cause trouble for Lu Ming, the man reluctantly put away his autograph.
"I tied you up because I thought you were a bad guy. I didn't expect it was a misunderstanding. I apologize for what I did," Xiaobai said to the man. "I hope you won't hold it against me."
"It's alright, it's alright, I understand... It's normal for three girls walking on the street to be targeted by bad guys..." The man touched the pocket in front of Lu Ming's pants, his face showing no resentment, but rather full of gratitude. "Speaking of which, this guy was able to cling to the wall like Spider-Man just now, that's amazing! Are you Miss Lu Ming's new bodyguards?"
“Friend,” Lu Ming quickly said.
"Ah! So, you're a friend! I'm sorry!" The man hurriedly lowered his head in a panic.
"It's alright, it's alright." Xiaobai waved her hand with a smile. She looked at Loki beside her and smiled, "The guy who tied you up just now even filmed a scene with Miss Luming today. Maybe you'll see them on screen together again in the future."
"Really?!" the man exclaimed excitedly. "I... I'll be looking forward to it!"
Under the watchful eyes of Xiaobai and the other two, the man bowed several times in their direction before leaving the alley with a satisfied expression.
"These are fans..." Xiaobai sighed deeply as he looked at the empty alleyways and lanes.
Just then, she felt someone watching her.
Xiao Bai turned her head and saw Lu Ming looking at her.
"Miss Luming, what's wrong?"
"Um..." Lu Ming lowered his head somewhat awkwardly, "You couldn't just now..."
"what?"
"Regarding filming... I signed a confidentiality agreement... so I can't talk about it."
"Huh?? It was a confidential matter???" Xiaobai was taken aback and quickly moved closer to Luming, saying in a panic, "I'm sorry... I didn't know..."
Chapter 2284 Protected
"Leaking information about filming might affect the film's promotional effect..." Lu Ming whispered a reminder.
"Oh, so that's how it is!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai hurriedly bowed and apologized to Lu Ming, "I, I've never encountered something like this before, I... I'm so sorry for not knowing the rules! Well, I'll ask Loki to go and call the fans back..."
Xiao Bai genuinely didn't know there was such a confidentiality agreement for filming; she had simply blurted it out without thinking. She felt deeply apologetic for unintentionally causing trouble for Lu Ming.
"puff."
However, Lu Ming didn't seem to have any intention of blaming Xiao Bai. In response to Xiao Bai's apology, Lu Ming simply covered his mouth and chuckled.
"Miss Luming?" Xiaobai cautiously raised her head.
"This time everything should be fine," Lu Ming said with a smile to Xiao Bai.
"really?"
"It's fine as long as they didn't mention the specific movie title, and also..."
"and?"
"You definitely didn't sign a confidentiality agreement."
"Uh."
"Ah."
"That's great..." Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief.
My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease.
Lu Ming stared at Xiao Bai's face.
Lu Ming's gaze was very serene and warm, filled with a wonderful emotion.
"Thank you this time," Lu Ming Xiaobai said softly.
"Thank, thank you for what?" Xiaobai asked curiously.
"You just protected me."
"It wasn't really protection..." Xiao Bai felt embarrassed when she thought about what had just happened, and gave a somewhat hesitant laugh.
Loki, who was standing nearby, had also finished picking up the rope on the ground. She threw the broken pieces of rope into the trash can in the alley, clapped her hands, and walked back to Xiaobai and Luming.
Loki and Lu Ming exchanged a glance.
Lu Ming smiled gratefully at Loki, then looked at Xiao Bai.
"It's getting late, I should head back to the company."
"Ah... I meant I had to go to work." Xiaobai nodded belatedly. "Then, Miss Luming, let us take you home!"
"No need." Lu Ming took out his phone. "I'll have my agent pick me up."
Lu Ming dialed his agent's number.
……
Ten minutes after the agent informed everyone of their location and situation, a familiar SUV screeched to a halt at the entrance of the alley.
The car door opens.
A familiar man in a suit, carrying a briefcase, hurriedly stepped out of the SUV.
The man in the suit entered the alley, and his tense expression only eased after he saw Xiaobai and the other two inside.
"Lu Ming, and... Miss Lu Lin." The man in the suit straightened his back and walked up to the group. "I've come to pick you up."
"Hello...Manager." Xiaobai waved awkwardly at the man in the suit, "We meet again..."
"Yes, we meet again." The man in the suit sighed deeply and said to Xiaobai in a tone that was hard to tell whether it was helplessness or admiration, "I didn't expect that you could so quickly win over Lu Ming on our first meeting and accomplish what even her tens of millions of fans couldn't. Miss Lu Lin, you are more threatening than your appearance suggests."
"Uh..." Xiao Bai couldn't help but show a guilty expression, as if she had kidnapped someone else's daughter. "Sorry..."
"Just let me know next time. Although our entertainment company forbids its artists from dating, we wouldn't be so heartless as to interfere in ordinary friendships between people of the same sex," the man in the suit explained to Xiaobai. "After all, Miss Luming is a contracted artist with our company, and it would be very troublesome if we suddenly couldn't contact her."
"Okay!" Xiaobai nodded quickly.
Seeing Xiaobai's cooperation, the man in the suit turned to look at Lu Ming.
"My dear Miss Luming, have you had enough fun today?" The man in the suit had a helpless expression on his strong features.
"I'm very happy." Lu Ming nodded with a smile.
"Well, whatever makes you happy." The man in the suit looked at Lu Ming for a while, then his shoulders slumped. "It's about time to go back to work, isn't it? The advertisers have been at the company for a long time now."
"it is good."
The man in the suit scratched his head and looked at Xiaobai with a relaxed expression.
"Miss Lu Lin and Miss Loki, would you like to get in the car as well? I'll have the driver give you a ride, how about that?"
"Ah, we can go back by ourselves." Xiaobai quickly waved her hand. "Miss Luming has to go to work, right? We'll be in the way if we follow her."
The man in the suit smiled at Xiaobai, took a card out of his briefcase, and handed it to Xiaobai.
"Miss Lu Lin, please keep this."
"this is?"
“Our company’s employee ID has the address and contact information on it—Ms. Lu Lin, if you bring this to our company as a guest, you shouldn’t be stopped by the security guard.”
"Oh, that's a good thing, thank you." Xiaobai held the card in both hands and thanked the man in the suit.
"Then we'll take our leave." The man in the suit bowed to Xiaobai.
After saying goodbye to Xiaobai and Loki, Lu Ming left the alley with his manager. Lu Ming got into the back seat of the SUV, while the man in the suit got into the front passenger seat.
Watching the SUV disappear with a whoosh, Xiaobai put the work ID given to him by the man in the suit into his wallet.
Being a celebrity is really not easy.
Xiaobai has sighed over this sentence countless times.
"Where do we go next?" Loki asked.
"We don't have anything else to do, so let's just take a walk and then go home," Little White smiled at Loki.
"Ah."
Little White and Loki walked along the streets of Cloud City.
"Speaking of which, Loki."
"I'm here."
How was filming?
"It's pretty much what I imagined."
