She was so loud that everyone around heard her.

All the moviegoers were streaming out of the cinema and into the passageway that led outside. When they heard the girl’s excited screams, they halted and turned around to look.

Just like that, Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan were both surrounded.

Qiao Lian’s heart started pounding.

Just a moment ago, he he had gone unnoticed even without his sunglasses and mask.

But now, someone had identified him even when his face was covered up?

Honestly, his loyal fans knew him well!

As these thoughts ran through her mind, the girl shrieked again, “You’re- you’re Best Actor Shen, aren’t you?”

Now, even more people were turning around to look at the commotion. Some even took out their cell phone cameras and were getting ready to take pictures.

In a flash, Shen Liangchuan suddenly pointed into the distance at a man with sunglasses. “Fan Jie, hurry up and come over here!”

Hearing these words, the crowd turned their heads in the direction that Shen Lianchuan was pointing at and aimed their cameras at that man.

The man in sunglasses found himself surrounded suddenly. He took off his sunglasses with bewilderment. “What- what are you people doing?”

The crowd then realized that the man in sunglasses wasn’t Fan Jie at all.

Then…

They started squeezing each other and turned around again, to find that Shen Liangchuan was no longer where he had been standing.

–

Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan managed to run out of the passageway, squeezing through the crowd, and soon arrived at the carpark. They got into their car and quickly drove away.

Qiao Lian’s heart was still pounding furiously and wouldn’t calm down.

She took a deep breath as the last few minutes flashed across her mind. It was still terrifying.

She looked at Shen Liangchuan anxiously. “Do you think someone took a picture then?”

Shen Liangchuan’s expression darkened. “I don’t think so.”

It had been his own carelessness.

In the beginning, when they sat at the cinema, he had been quite sure that no one would recognize him.

But after the movie, seeing that she was so upset, he couldn’t help but attempt to comfort her.

It was probably his voice that had given him away.

He glanced at Qiao Lian. “Don’t worry.”

Qiao Lian took a deep breath and nodded.

Through the whole journey home, Qiao Lian kept checking Weibo anxiously, keeping a lookout for his name on the headlines.

Indeed, the news of Shen Liangchuan going to the movies had quickly made its way up to the trending topics list.

There were pictures taken by people who had been quick enough, but these were blurry and one wouldn’t be able to recognize the faces.

Qiao Lian kept watch on Weibo all night long, unable to sleep.

In all probability, no one had managed to take a photo of her too.

The following day at the news agency, the members of Team One were in high spirits and making a big, dramatic show of it.

Qiao Lian raised an eyebrow as Shi Nianyao scurried up to her and secretively ushered her into the office. “Someone on the internet announced that he has managed to snap a frontal shot of of Best Actor Shen and Mrs Shen! Team One has gotten in touch with this person and has now sent one of their people to purchase the picture.”

Qiao Lian paused and immediately frowned.

Shi Nianyao asked, “Did you go watch a movie? That is so romantic! And bold! You actually ventured outside to a public place.”

“What if they really come back a picture of you? Are you prepared to admit the marriage? What does Best Actor Shen think?”

As she said these words, the Team One member who had gone to make the purchase had just returned to the office, all triumphant. He loudly announced, “I have the picture here!”

Qiao Lian’s heart started pounding wildly again.

This would be the end of her!

What was she going to do now?

She bit her lip and followed Shi Nianyao to Team One’s office.
