Chyou stuck out her tongue but in her mind.


    Ah, somebody recognized me even though I put on shades!


    "Haha...I am not sure what you are talking about."


    "No, no, you are definitely Zhu Chyou! I can recognize my favorite idol anywhere!" The young girl''s eyes were glittering with stars. "Oh my God I cannot believe that I met my idol!"


    Her excited gasps reached the other passers-by and soon enough, a crowd formed around Chyou and Yating.


    "It''s Zhu Chyou! It''s really Zhu Chyou in the flesh!"


    "Ahh, I cannot believe I met you!"


    "I have watched all your movies!"


    "I am your big fan, Zhu Chyou! You are the best actress in this industry!"


    "I loved your tomboy role in the other movie. You were so awesome!"


    By that point, Chyou waspletely exposed. "Hehe, you caught me~"


    It turned into a frenzy with everybody wanting to click pictures with her, which she very patiently did. But soon, their attention turned towards Yating.


    A handsome and seemingly wealthy man with Chyou outside a gift shop naturally arose suspicions in everybody''s hearts. Yating simply shed a polite smile to them which tugged many heartstrings.


    Chyou naturally caught their gaze and cleared her throat. "He is Gu Yating and my friend."


    One of them from the crowd guessed. "I think I have heard of him. Chief editor of Dream High, right?"


    "Yeah," he admitted.


    She gasped.


    An editor and an actress are an item? How did they even meet?


    Despite Chyou rifying their rtionship, the fans were not ready to believe her.


    Some of them whispered among themselves. "Are they dating?"


    "They definitely are! Look, she is holding a gift bag. Gu Yating definitely pampered her with a gift. Isn''t that what boyfriends do?"


    "That''s right! But I thought that there was something between Zhu Chyou and Cheng Yin. They have acted in so many movies together..."


    "Yeah me too! I always felt their chemistry was so amazing."


    "Maybe she doesn''t want anybody from the entertainment industry? Whatever it is, I think Gu Yating looks cute with her too," she giggled.


    "Is it only me or I find him sexier than Cheng Yin?"


    Chyou talked to some of her fans and quickly dragged Yating away from the crowd. Coming to a safe distance, she took out her shades and exhaled. "Thank God. Damn their eyes are sharp. Sorry you got pulled along."


    He waved his hand. "No big deal. I finally witnessed your poprity with my own eyes," he chuckled.


    Chyou grinned.


    "Oh yeah, I almost forgot!"


    She unzipped her bag and took out his coat. "Here. I washed and ironed it."


    Yating was taken aback. "You still have my coat?"


    "Of course. Did you think I would throw it away?"


    "I thought so."


    She red at him. "You protected me with this coat! How can I throw it away?"


    Yating helplessly chuckled. "Thanks."


    "How is Uncle Gu by the way?"


    "He is doing well. Already back to managing thepany."


    "Did you learn anything about the bribe issue?"


    "No," he sighed. "But Soo Yijun is looking into it."


    Chyou was in deep thought. "We are definitely missing something. If Uncle is innocent, then the judge was contacted in some other way. But we don''t know how...Let me check the footage once again. I will give everything a thorough check. There is definitely we are not seeing something," she narrowed her eyes.


    --


    Cheng Yin''s assistant ran to his side, huffing and puffing. In his makeup room, Cheng Yin was getting ready for the next shot when his assistant just barged in. "Sir!"


    Cheng Yin grimaced. "Why are you in such a hurry?"


    "The...news..." he breathlessly said, "Trending news...Zhu Chyou..."


    "What? It must be some promotion going viral. What are you so hyped up about?"


    "It''s not a promotion. It''s her rtionship! Zhu Chyou is dating!"


    Cheng Yin choked and stumbled in his seat. "What!?"


    He snatched the phone from him and checked Weibo. The topmost trending news was of Chyou in a rtionship with Gu Yating. Her fans had seen her exiting a gift shop with him andter on, there was another picture of Chyou giving Yating a coat. They wereughing and the mood was cheery around them.


    Cheng Yin looked like he was struck with lightning.


    The assistant said, "I was so shocked. There was never any news about Zhu Chyou dating anybody."


    One of the makeup artists said, "Hey isn''t he the same man who saved Miss. Zhu from the fire that day?"


    "Oh yeah! He went back and brought her out!"


    "Hehe, what if that incident ignited a whole different fire inside them?" She giggled. "Maybe he won Miss. Zhu''s heart with that."


    Cheng Yin stiffened. The mention of the fire definitely bugged him because he still felt stupid for not checking upon Chyou. But what also bothered him was about the part of his drugs.


    He was taken by utter shock when Chyou confronted him about drugs a few days ago. Since she had this suspicion, he believed that it was Jun who must have ratted out everything because he had threatened him in doing a blood test to prove his drug addiction.


    Damn, what should I say!? That bastard spitting out everything!


    He thought to lie but what if she insisted on a blood test too upon Jun''s insistence? Everything would be spilled out.


    I have no option but to confess to her. I will totally lose her if I am found lyingter...


    So he made up a story of getting into a badpany and tried to exin his addiction and also assured that he had stopped taking drugs. As expected, that made Chyou happier than if he had lied.


    He was relieved but now looking at this trending post made his fingers fidget with doubt.


    Why is she with him? Didn''t Gu Yating say that he only met her for some temporary work?


    It cannot be that Chyou changed her mind?


    He clenched the phone in his palm.


    The post made him extremely ufortable. Just a few days ago, the video of him yelling at Ai went viral and it had already affected his reputation a lot. People who were shipping Chyou and him together were now shipping Yating with her.


    Damn! What the hell is going on!?
