Chapter 665: 267 Terrifying Popularity

The final exams lasted for two days. Once the last subject was completed, it officially marked the start of winter break.

"An’an, do you have any plans for the winter break? My uncle opened a ski resort in the mountains. Why don’t we go skiing? Consider it a farewell for you. Once you move to Jingzhou, it’ll be hard for us to see you."

Gao Yuyue grew more melancholic as she spoke.

She turned her head and saw Yan Lu buried in her phone and snapped irritably, "Say something, will you? You’re practically glued to your phone!"

Without looking up, Yan Lu replied, "Skiing is so boring. How about I take you all celebrity chasing instead...?"

Gao Yuyue furrowed her brows tightly: "Chasing celebrities? Are you kidding me? No celebrity is worth my time. Just a bunch of uncultured 208s."

"He’s not like the usual 208s...."

Yan Lu was about to lift her head to retort when a black business sedan pulled up nearby.

A short-haired young woman stepped out of the car and waved excitedly in this direction.

Yan Lu and Gao Yuyue exchanged glances, then both turned to look at Shen You’an.

Shen You’an shook her head and glanced sideways behind her right shoulder.

Luuo Yunqi walked past Shen You’an. As the two aligned, Yunqi paused her steps briefly. She didn’t turn her head, but she lifted her chin even higher.

Like a proud and elegant swan, she gracefully left the three with her retreating figure.

"Miss Luuo, hello, I’m the assistant assigned to you by the company. My name is Zhang Xiaoya. You can just call me Xiaoya. It’s cold outside, please get in the car."

The short-haired girl was lively and cheerful. Seeing Yunqi dressed lightly, she quickly helped her into the car.

Zhang Xiaoya glanced back before getting in.

Lanya High School was full of beauties. She hadn’t waited long before spotting several glamorous girls with distinct temperaments.

Especially one tall girl wearing glasses not far away—her skin was so pale it almost reflected light, and her aura stood out like a crane amidst chickens, leaving a deep impression.

The newly signed rookie, Luuo Yunqi, in comparison, seemed rather dull and unremarkable.

The entertainment industry is filled with manufactured beauties competing to outshine each other. It’s truly short-sighted, failing to recognize that true beauties are hiding in plain sight.

This particular girl would definitely make it big if she entered the scene. Nowadays, looks rule the world.

Zhang Xiaoya sighed regretfully but hid all traces of her thoughts as she turned and boarded the car.

"Miss Luuo, let me brief you on the upcoming work schedule. The film *Jianghu Laugh* has entered its final promotional phase. It’s set to release in just over half a month. During this time, you’ll need to travel with the crew for roadshows, but don’t worry—I’ll accompany you throughout and take care of everything."

Luuo Yunqi smiled gently: "Thank you, Xiaoya."

"This is part of my job."

Zhang Xiaoya opened her tablet and showed Yunqi the densely packed schedule: "Please have a look. If there’s any issue with the timing, let me know in advance so I can coordinate with the crew."

Director Cen Shu placed great importance on this comeback project, scheduling an exhaustive number of roadshow events and requiring all key cast members to be present. Luuo Yunqi, however, felt somewhat reassured by the rigorous planning.

"No problem. I’ll fully cooperate with the crew’s arrangements."

The first stop for the roadshow was Qingzhou, tomorrow afternoon at 3 PM, at Shenda International Cinema’s IMAX Hall.

Director Cen Shu paired with the washed-up actress Ru Caiying—this comeback project of theirs would surely attract considerable media attention.

Tomorrow would also be Luuo Yunqi’s first formal media appearance. The company was heavily invested, having already hired stylists and makeup artists to ensure an impressive entrance.

As the business sedan drove off, Gao Yuyue sneered: "It seems our school is about to produce a major star."

Her tone was dripping with sarcasm.

"Isn’t *Jianghu Laugh* set to release during the Spring Festival? It hasn’t been long since filming wrapped up—this pace is insane. I saw online that there’s a roadshow in Qingzhou tomorrow afternoon. I bet Luuo Yunqi will show up all dressed to the nines. I’m not interested in the movie but..."

Yan Lu paused, drawing the curious gaze of Gao Yuyue and Shen You’an before finally blurting out excitedly, "My favorite boy group is also hosting an event in Qingzhou tomorrow! You guys have to come with me—let’s bring support banners to cheer them on in person!"

Gao Yuyue: ...

"Seriously? How childish. You’re all grown up, yet still chasing idols? Go by yourself. An’an and I are going skiing."

"An’an." Yan Lu clung to Shen You’an’s other arm. "It’s the newly debuted Star Moon Boy Group! Don’t you remember how we watched their debut live? You have to come with me, please..."

Gao Yuyue shuddered dramatically: "Yan Lu, you’re disgusting."

"No matter how much you beg, it’s useless. An’an doesn’t look like the type to chase idols...."

Before Gao Yuyue could finish her sentence, Shen You’an calmly said, "Sure, let’s go together tomorrow."

Gao Yuyue: ...

She turned towards Shen You’an in disbelief: "Are you really the Shen You’an I know?"

Shen You’an smiled warmly: "Authentic and unchanged."

Gao Yuyue clutched her chest in despair: "You’re skipping skiing to join Yan Lu in idol chasing? You’ve let me down."

Shen You’an: "What’s so shameful about chasing idols? You’re being biased."

Yan Lu burst into laughter and patted Gao Yuyue on the shoulder: "Quick, join the Lemons fan army!"

"Lemons fan army? Don’t tell me you’re talking about Rong Xianning—he’s just a kid. Why are you all so obsessed with him?"

"The joy of nurturing a younger idol brother—you’ll get it once you join."

Gao Yuyue glanced at Shen You’an, who seriously nodded in agreement.

Gao Yuyue: ...Can’t beat them, so might as well join.

Yan Lu suddenly shrieked while scrolling through her phone: "Ningning is landing in Qingzhou on an 11 PM flight tonight! The fan club is already organizing a meetup at the airport...."

Gao Yuyue quickly stopped her: "I’m not against fandoms, but you need to know your limits. Heading to the airport in the middle of the night? That’s crazy."

Yan Lu turned to Shen You’an.

Shen You’an shook her head: "Not happening. I’ll be asleep."

Shen You’an, ever disciplined, never allows anyone or anything to disrupt her early bedtime.

Yan Lu stuck out her tongue: "Fine, I’ll just watch the livestream online then."

Shen You’an’s pocket vibrated, and she took out her phone to look.

Qi Baotan had sent her a message.

——

The ordinarily quiet Qingzhou Airport was lively for the first time in ages tonight.

The airport was swarming with people, and the arrivals gate was completely packed. Even during the busiest Spring Festival season, it had never been this chaotic.

The security team was on high alert, constantly working to maintain order at the scene.

The most outrageous thing was that among the fans waiting at the airport were not only young girls but also middle-aged aunties adorned with glow-in-the-dark headbands featuring Rong Xianning’s name. They held banners with slogans, their passion undeterred despite the late hour.

Additionally, paparazzi had arrived in droves, eagerly staking out the area to capture the first glimpses of the trending boy group.

Despite being called a "trending boy group," in truth, everyone was only here for Rong Xianning; the other group members were mere fillers. Such was the evident disparity in fan attention.

At 11:10 PM, a time when most would be asleep, the arrivals gate suddenly erupted in chaos.

A group of young boys emerged, dragging their suitcases, and the wave of screams that followed nearly shook the airport’s roof.

"Where’s Ningning? Where’s Ningning?!?"

Rong Xianning walked last. When he finally appeared, the atmosphere reached a boiling point as fans roared his name like a tidal wave.

The rest of the boys visibly turned sullen.

Even though they had expected this, experiencing it firsthand was still deeply embarrassing.

As fans began rushing forward, the security team quickly surrounded Rong Xianning, creating a human shield to escort him towards the exit.

This slim teenager instantly became the focal point of the entire airport, drawing every gaze. No one noticed a young woman pulling her suitcase as she exited the arrivals gate.

She adjusted the brim of her hat, glanced at the crowd surrounding someone nearby, and sighed, "Such terrifying popularity—he’s really famous."
