Chapter 417: The Idol’s Attention

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ye Lun glanced at her but did not say a word. Although his gaze seed to be smiling, it was also sharp at the sa ti.

An assistant answered on behalf of Ye Lun. “Yes, is there anything else?”

Cheng Xin felt delighted, smiling as though she had seen spring.

“That’s great, congratulations!”

“...”

The few of them were expressionless.

Xiang Wan suddenly noticed that Cheng Xin’s emotional intelligence was rather worrying.

What was there to congratulate about when he was made to stay in the Criminal Investigation Unit for two days?

Cheng Xin seed to have noticed that and quickly gave an explanation.

“I an that it’s great that you’re not related to the case...”

As usual, Ye Lun did not say a word.

The assistant, on the other hand, was very experienced when handling such incidents. “Officer,” asked the assistant politely with a smile, “is there anything else?”

Although he was polite, the underlying aning was—’if you have nothing else to say, please don’t block the way!’

Cheng Xin was not soone who understood sentences with implied anings.

She showed a smile, her cheeks flushed red a little. “It’s like this. Actually I’m also a ‘Lunzi’...”

“Lunzi” was a dedicated term ant for Ye Lun fans.

Finally, there was so reaction on Ye Lun’s face. “Thank you!”

Cheng Xin’s face lit up when she saw a reaction from Ye Lun.

“I really like ‘The Grey List’. My favorite character is Qin Shu. When I first saw your promotional pictures for the character Qin Shu, I was so astonished... I feel that you and Qin Shu... are totally the sa person. Your appearance, deanor... are too alike!”

“Thank you!” Ye Lun raised a corner of his lips. “Anything else?”

What he had said dazed Cheng Xin for a mont. “Nope...”

Ye Lun’s hands were on his chin. “So can you please don’t block the way now?”

Cheng Xin nodded without another word. “...”

This was the lobby.

There were civilians who would co to the police station to report their cases.

As well as police officers who were working at the reception.

However, they were quite far apart, so no one else heard their conversation, except...

Xiang Wan’s seat was nearer to the entrance, which happened to be nearer to Cheng Xin as well as Ye Lun and his assistants.

Whether they liked it or not, she had heard everything.

Uncontrollably, a smile appeared on her face.

Coincidentally, Ye Lun caught that when he glanced over.

Xiang Wan’s smile imdiately froze, and she quickly cleared her throat.

She looked away as if she had seen nothing.

...

Ye Lun was also notoriously known for his attitude towards his fans—indifferent.

When he was in a good mood, he would pamper and coax his fans. When he was in a poor mood, he would sneer and even swear.

He was very stubborn and only did what he wanted. Thus, he had a bad reputation in the showbiz industry. Because of that character of his, although he had many opportunities to shine and had starred in various shows, there was nothing that stood out. The result was that he had been hovering around being a C-List and a B-List celebrity.

However, for his fans, that very trait appealed to them the most.

Hmm, he’s very direct! Different from all those hypocritical and pretentious celebrities!

That was what his fans said.

The words that he said to Cheng Xin were rather embarrassing for her.

She clenched her hands and moved awkwardly aside. She was preparing to slip away at any mont.

That scene was similar to a daughter-in-law who had suffered so injustice.

Nonetheless, Ye Lun suddenly stopped her. “Don’t you want a signature?”

Cheng Xin’s eyes went wide-opened as she turned her head, with a hint of disbelief written all over her face.

“Are you referring to... ?”

Ye Lun’s gorgeous smiling face was gentle. “Is there anyone else besides you?”

“Yes, of course!” Cheng Xin was awestruck by the sudden surprise, she was so overwheld that she appeared to be a little lost. “I... I don’t have a pen with . Is it okay for you to wait for a while? I’ll quickly get a pen and a nice notebook.”

Ye Lun’s response differed greatly from when he was walking out as though his personality had changed.

“It’s all right. No rush, I’ll sit here and wait here for you!”

“All right, thank you!” Cheng Xin sprinted away like a gust of wind.

In less than two seconds, Ye Lun turned and walked toward Xiang Wan.

The chairs in the lobby were arranged in rows.

Each row had three seats.

Xiang Wan had taken a corner seat. When Ye Lun ca over, he took the center seat right beside her.

The few assistants stood aside, keeping him company, but they said nothing.

“...”

What the...?

Xiang Wan’s shoulders instantly stiffened the mont he sat down. She just turned her head for a glance at him.

She did not say a word though.

This was a public place.

Anyone could sit where they wanted.

Unexpectedly, Ye Lun took the initiative to greet her.

“Miss Xiang, we et again.”

“...”

Xiang Wan did not answer imdiately.

The last ti they t was at the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in Jin City.

They had a brief conversation, but it was not a pleasant experience for her.

In fact, Xiang Wan couldn’t rember what they had said the last ti.

She only knew that throughout all these cases, Ye Lun was like a spectator, watching all these unfold before him, never directly involved in it. He was like a bystander in a cri scene, accidentally splattered by the blood when the cri took place...

Well, she and Ye Lun was actually a little similar in this aspect.

“You’re right!” Xiang Wan’s lips curved at the corners. “Not only that, every ti we et, it seed that you’re not faced with a really pleasant experience!”

“That’s only you! It’s pleasant for though!”

Xiang Wan just smiled at his remark and kept quiet.

Although they had t a few tis, he was definitely not a suitable person to reminisce about the past with her.

Ye Lun crossed his long legs. His voice sounded mainly indolent with a tinge of a villainous vibe. Behaving like an old friend, he asked, “How’s your writing coming along?”

Xiang Wan paused for a while.

“Quite okay!”

It was the standard response of soone who wanted to end the topic.

Usually, when most people heard that, they would stop the chat.

However, Ye Lun totally did not mind her cold attitude as he chatted with her casually.

“Do you think I’m a bad person?”

“...” Xiang Wan felt that the remark had co without rhy or reason.

She turned her head and t his gaze.

The distance between the two chairs was too close.

It was close enough to see each other’s expressions clearly.

Ye Lun saw Xiang Wan’s bewildernt vividly.

Besides behaving frivolously, there was nothing else in Ye Lun’s eyes.

For this round of eye contact, Xiang Wan felt that she had suffered a loss.

“Is it important if I think of you as good or bad?”

“Of course! You’re an author. What if you’re not happy and send to my doom in your story?”

Ye Lun’s fingers tapped gently on his knee while the ring on his finger was sparkling. The fashionably dressed and gorgeous young man attracted the attention of passersby from ti to ti. That also caused Xiang Wan to be under the scrutiny of all these curious glances.

Cheng Xin walked over at this ti.

She was now holding a notebook and a pen as she saw Ye Lun smiling at Xiang Wan.

She stood about five steps away from them, looking at Xiang Wan as though she was her love rival.

“You both knew each other!?”

Of course, Cheng Xin would not know how they got to know each other.

Xiang Wan was not prepared to tell her about it either.

She got up from her seat. “Mr. Ye, if there’s nothing else, I’ll make a move first!”

Not giving a chance for Ye Lun to raise any objection, she directly walked toward the direction of the Ladies.

Ye Lun looked at her back view, a corner of his lips quirked upwards. He also got up from his seat before putting on his shades, leading his small entourage of assistants and strode out of the police station like so big shot, without even sparing a glance at Cheng Xin. It appeared that he did not rember he had agreed to let Cheng Xin have his signature.

“... Ye Lun!”

Cheng Xin stood dumbfounded for a few seconds and quickly chased after him.

However, a posh-looking black car was waiting outside the entrance of the police station.

By then, Ye Lun had hopped onto the car.

Without waiting for her to reach him, the car had already started and driven into the distance.

Cheng Xin just stood there. For a mont, her face had a burning sensation.

She did not pin the bla on Ye Lun for the intentional humiliation as well as the earlier snide remarks. Instead, she thought of Xiang Wan.

This woman!

She must have said sothing.

It must be her fault! Cheng Xin thought.

She really hated Xiang Wan to the core!

She had already snatched Bai Muchuan from her. Now, she even wanted to snatch her idol’s attention from her!

...

Xiang Wan totally did not know that she had offended the woman who had a heart made of glass.

After coming back from the Ladies, it relieved her when the ones she did not want to see were no longer there.

She waited for another 30 over minutes and decided to send a sighing emoticon in the Gossip chat group out of boredom.

“I have been waiting and still waiting for my boyfriend!”

Then she pinged Fang Yuanyuan. “You’re right. Having a detective boyfriend is like having a one-sided relationship!”

In less than a minute, Bai Muchuan ca out of his eting.

When he saw Xiang Wan sitting by herself in the lobby, his eyebrows lowered. He directly pulled her up and walked out of the police station together with a grim expression. They then went to a nearby cafe. Bai Muchuan ordered so food and a warm drink for her before he started his “lecture”.

“How can you move around the city by yourself? Are you silly or sothing?”

Xiang Wan was drinking from the straw as she took a sip of the warm drink. The whole of her now felt warm, and she heaved a satisfied sigh.

“I traveled so far to visit you. Why are you so angry with ? Sure enough, when one is in a relationship for a long ti, the boyfriend will forget whatever he had promised! I feel so hurt...”

Her “pitiful” performance amused Bai Muchuan thinking of just how wrong she was for what she had claid.

He grunted a laugh before pulling her over to him and gave her a kiss on the forehead.

It felt warm and also hot as it went straight to her heart.

“You should have inford earlier! Aren’t you cold when you’re sitting all alone at the lobby?”

“I’m not cold, just a little hungry!”

She had been waiting there for quite a while and it was almost noon.

Hence, when Bai Muchuan brought her out for a al, it actually gratified her.

She spoke as she chewed on her waffle, “Actually, I’m here because of the case.”
