NovelEnglishChapter 464: Encounter with Fans
After coming out of the police station, Qiao Yanjue took Xia Xibei out for a meal.
At the restaurant, Xia Xibei came across a small group of fans. She signed autographs and took photos with them.
She found the experience somewhat magical.
This was the very first time in this life that someone asked for an autograph and some photos with her.
She didn’t have any works, so strictly speaking, she couldn’t be considered an artist yet.
She became a lot more popular ever since Nie Zehai’s scandal.
She was known as the “fairy-like school beauty” on the internet before, which was acclaimed by many. In real life, however, hardly anyone recognized her.
But people actually started to recognize her now, which meant that she was gaining fame.
Once she began producing her own works, things would get even better.
The group of girls were probably college students. After getting her autograph and taking photos with her, they asked with excitement, “Can we ask you a question?”
“Go ahead.”
Their eyes were sparkling, “Are you... Close with Brother Hai?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Nie Zehai is our friend.”
Qiao Yanjue stood forth before Xia Xibei could even speak, his expression rather cold.
“Oh- Oh! We get it now!” The girls were startled by his expression. They nodded non-stop before taking to their heels.
They couldn’t help but pat their chests with relief once he was out of sight.
“Holy jeez, that was scary!”
“But he’s so handsome though! He looks like a prince right out of a comic book!”
“Yea he’s handsome indeed, but... A little too cold.”
“You’re right, he was. I almost shivered when I met his eyes just now! He’s just a young man apparently, but he gives off a different vibe.”
“But the way he looked at Beibei was way different!”
“Yeah, yeah! He was so gentle when he looked at Beibei! But when we brought up Brother Hai, his reaction was... Kinda jealous!”
“Could he be Beibei’s boyfriend?”
“Can’t be, right? Beibei is still a sophomore!”
“But they seemed like a perfect match though.”
“Indeed! Beibei is totally gorgeous! I felt so embarrassed while standing beside her just now!”
“Beibei wasn’t wearing make-up today, right? Her skin is flawless! It looked like it was glowing!”
“I’m really curious about what skincare products she uses, they must be superb!”
“Me too!”
“...”
They walked away while chattering gleefully.
Back in the room, Xia Xibei was apologetic, “I didn’t think I’d meet fans here.”
With a tender look on his face, Qiao Yanjue shook his head with a smile. He was a whole different person from the cold, grim self that he showed the girls a while ago.
“It’s a good thing, isn’t it? It means you’re getting popular.”
“Indeed,” Xia Xibei nodded. “I’m becoming famous!”
“It’ll be troublesome to go to places when you become more famous.”
“No worries, I have the mask!” Xia Xibei grinned happily.
Qiao Yanjue nodded in agreement, “The mask that you made is magical indeed. It saves a lot of trouble.”

He felt that she had lost weight again.
Xia Xibei did not refuse and began eating heartily.
She needed a healthy body to maintain a robust spiritual power, so she had to work on keeping herself nourished too.
Qiao Yanjue was pleased as he watched her eating intently.
While they were eating, Qiao Yanjue’s phone rang again.
It was Qiao Zhiqing once again.
“How was it? Is Zhikun out now?”
The irritating prattle began right as the call was connected.
“No.”
“N- No?!” Qiao Zhiqing was overwhelmed with shock. “Why is he not out yet? What in the world are you doing?!”
There was a knock on the door at that moment, and a waiter came in.
“Sir, all your dishes have been served.”
Qiao Zhiqing’s growl could be heard from the other end.
“You’re at a restaurant?!”
