Hengdian, a certain hotel.

Liu Rulan stood with her hands on her hips, looking at the person in front of her with a look of disappointment, finally unable to help but start nagging.

"Didn't I tell you to keep a low profile? I even specifically found the cinema furthest from here for you, and what happened?! You were cornered by fans as soon as you finished the movie! If it weren't for the fact that those fans you met had some decency and helped you block the paparazzi who came running, you kid would've had us picking you up from the cinema today!"

Xiao He stood there awkwardly, taking the lecture.

One moment he was recognized by fans, and the next, he was being chased by a swarm of paparazzi who had caught wind of him...

"Sor... sorry." Xiao He defended himself innocently. "At first, it was only those few girls who recognized me. I thought since I was dressed like that and they could still recognize me, they must be true fans. So, I spent a little extra time signing autographs and taking photos with them..."

Who would have thought that even this far from Hengdian, paparazzi would still sniff him out and follow him all the way, snapping photos behind his back.

To be honest, Xiao He felt quite helpless.

As his fame and popularity grew, his methods of hiding gradually lost their effect on fans. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Sometimes he would even use his cheat to make his aura and state more ordinary and mundane, but he would still be recognized by his fans at a glance on the street.

Xiao He couldn't figure it out himself. He had covered himself up tightly and stayed far away from the fan base's headquarters, so how was he still being discovered?!

If he was going to be discovered every time from now on, what was he supposed to do?

Xiao He really didn't want to experience a daily life where he was photographed wherever he went.

Liu Rulan crossed her arms, scrolling through related trending topics on her phone while rolling her eyes at him. She said, "I suggest you check the fan groups. They have a sophisticated learning template for catching you now."

Xiao He:?

"Black clothes, black mask, and a black hat—that's the standard, let's not even mention that." Liu Rulan sized Xiao He up and continued, "Oh, right, and that special aura that makes one feel this person is very dangerous at first glance in a crowd. It's the kind of sense of danger that triggers a sixth-sense alarm as soon as someone gets close... Plus, knowing a bit about your current schedule and your general build, they can basically catch you."

Xiao He's mouth twitched slightly as he protested against this fallacious summary from the fans: "Hey, hey, that's not right! Judging like that is completely unreasonable! Besides, I wouldn't be suspected of being a bad guy when I'm just walking on the street, right?! They shouldn't look for me like that. What if they really encounter a bad person?"

Don't go learning just any tutorial! A keen sixth sense isn't meant for this!

At most, he was just at the level of getting a few extra looks from the police!

Liu Rulan's eyelids drooped halfway as she gave a Hehe, too lazy to refute Xiao He's self-deception. She just shook her phone and said to him, "As expected, you're on the trending topics again for the cinema incident."

Along with it was the "grand scene" of Xiao He being frantically chased by a group of paparazzi.

In the video, Xiao He, relying on his excellent skills and superhuman physical strength, successfully outran all the paparazzi present with an overwhelming advantage, leaving only a cool silhouette of his departure on camera.

At the end, the paparazzi in question muttered in shock in the video: "Holy crap, is this guy really Xiao He? They didn't mistake him for some long-distance running champion, did they! Is he even human? How can he run so fast? What on earth did he grow up eating?!"

Note: This paparazzi's most famous achievements include: climbing cliffs to film videos, climbing the tallest utility pole in Hengdian with bare hands to film set leaks, and successfully escaping after being chased by a Film Crew over six walls... He is a long-standing myth in the paparazzi circle.

He is an existence that even fans who dislike paparazzi have to respectfully call "Paparazzi Boss."

He was originally just here to have a meal, but he didn't expect to encounter his fated enemy—Xiao He!

So the fans, loving a good show, were laughing away in the comments section below.

【Hahaha, it seems the bro hasn't seen Brother Xiao's famous skiing scene in 'Travelogue of Mountains and Rivers.' Brother Xiao really has the stamina, he really knows his stuff!】

【Here's a bit of trivia: back when Brother Xiao first became famous, he even saved someone by climbing a building with his bare hands. Many people said back then that he was bitten by a spider and the spider mutated.】

【That is indeed very obscure trivia, but Brother Xiao is indeed impressive. He's one of the few actors in the industry who doesn't need a stunt double for dangerous sports.】

【Anyone who has seen 'fast car shadow 7' and 'Travelogue of Mountains and Rivers' will definitely be won over by Brother Xiao! Oh, right, you can also check out the promotional behind-the-scenes clips his team posted before and the European GT3 Endurance Race last year. Brother Xiao actually wins championships! He's dead sexy.】

【What? When did Brother Xiao participate in a race? Heavens, I actually had no idea! And he already won a championship? He feels so low-key. If I could win an award like that, I'd be dying to talk about it every day.】

【If I remember correctly, Brother Xiao seems to have won two championships already. Truly amazing! He wins every time he enters, and it's not some non-professional amateur race; it's a legitimate world-class competition. I remember when they were racing last year, our entire dorm was watching the live stream. Thanks to him, the four of us girls are now obsessed with Digital GT3 Racing and play it every day as soon as we open our computers.】

【Hahaha, who doesn't want to rush back after class, open a racing game, and start grinding?!】

【The fact that Xiao He is a racing champion actually trended for a while, it's just that many people didn't pay much attention. After all, this circle is a bit niche, and he himself is quite low-key. But compared to the racing stuff, Brother Xiao's skiing skills are even more shocking, okay! The latest episode of 'Travelogue of Mountains and Rivers' has exploded! Variety clips are «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» pushed to my phone every day, and I have to watch it every time I pass by to admire Brother Xiao's grand entrance.】

【Brother Xiao has so many skills and doesn't even brag about them. I'm really impressed by him; he gives me a new surprise every time.】

【If one could live like Xiao He, then life would be pointless without showing off!】

【You don't say, you really don't say! Now that 'fast car shadow 7' is performing extremely well globally, even the racing events in several regions have become exceptionally popular. The two sports cars Brother Xiao used to win the championship have also skyrocketed in price. They went from a price where ten of me couldn't afford them to twenty of me not being able to afford them...】

【I heard the brands are starting to get interested and want to collaborate with Brother Xiao. I don't know if it's true or not. After all, these big manufacturers have always been arrogant, so I don't know if Brother Xiao can make it.】

Xiao He automatically skipped the netizens' discussion about him being chased by paparazzi at the cinema and was the first to capture the more critical information. He then raised an eyebrow and asked with interest, "So Sister Liu, are there really big manufacturers looking to collaborate with me?"

In fact, luxury car brands like Ferrari rarely use "celebrity spokespeople" in the traditional sense. They are already top-tier luxury goods and don't need celebrities to drive sales. Those who are deeply bound and in long-term cooperation with them are mostly professional racing drivers, as they value a global image and social circles more.

So no matter how famous Xiao He was now, it was unlikely he would catch their attention.

But Xiao He was still somewhat expectant.

Hearing Xiao He's words, Liu Rulan shrugged and said, "There's good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
