Chapter 10, The Dark Veil is Justice (Part 2)
Lu Chengshi shook her head and said it was nothing, but she began to worry inside. Would her seemingly straight brother actually be bent? ... She still wanted to bring Chu Ning home to be her sister-in-law. If she had to call Jiang Yan sister-in-law, that scene ... . .. She shuddered and really couldn't bear to think any further
As Lu Chengsong approached, Lu Chengshi beside him deliberately shouted his name to attract his attention. In fact, there were others nearby calling him as well, but this voice was too familiar, and Lu Chengsong instinctively turned his gaze. The first thing he saw was naturally his younger sister, who had her hair tied in a ponytail, her face sunburned and red, waving her hand and shouting at him like a brainless person. He felt disdain in his heart, as she clearly bullied him at home, yet here she pretended to be a devoted fan.
Lu Chengshi thought that he was angry because he was inexplicably paired with a male-male couple, so he kindly consoled him, saying: "Oh, this is quite normal nowadays, and no one means any harm; they just think you two are very affectionate..."
"I am clearly 2 centimeters taller than that brat Jiang Yan, okay? Why don't you ask him if he can lift me? It should be me who gives him a hug and lifts him up, alright?" Lu Chengsong's eyes widened in anger.
A mother's deep affection for her son arises spontaneously. It must have been very hard filming recently, and yet you still find time to engage in such fan welfare activities. The management company truly prioritizes making money over the well-being of the artists.
Due to Lu Chengsong's tight schedule, this venue has only been reserved for two hours today, specifically for the selection of lucky fans, and there are no other welfare activities. Although Lu Chengshi is short in stature, she is like a little drill bit, and before long, she pulled Chu Ning to the front, allowing her to successfully take a few close-up photos of Lu Chengsong on stage.
Chun Ning had not yet recovered from her immense shock when Lu Chengshi beside her excitedly exclaimed, "She is here! She is here!"
Lu Chengshi: "... ... So your focus is on this ... ... ?"
His gaze slightly shifted, and the girl beside Lu Chengshi caught his attention. Compared to others, she was truly quiet, not shouting or making noise. The DSLR camera obscured most of her face, revealing only her shoulder-length hair and tightly pressed lips.
Chun Ning's mind was buzzing, staring at her ID. She originally wanted to say, "Hello, I am your fan, you can call me Xiao Chu," but when the words came out, they felt like they were swaying and changing places. Looking at Lu Chengsong, she forced out a smile that was as pleasant as possible: "Hello, I am your fan, you can call me dear mother"
I want to personally expose her true nature
Indeed, indeed, it is I, it is I. Lu Chengshi also smiled, her eyes squinting in a very adorable manner. Chun Ning observed her for a few moments; she appeared to be around sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was quite charming, especially with her doe-like eyes, which bore some resemblance to Lu Chengsong. The clothes she wore looked quite expensive, and Chun Ning pursed her lips, estimating that she was likely a child from a well-off family
In the next moment, Deng Yang punched him on the back of the head and said, "Do you think the organizer is your father? You can just declare someone to be involved in a conspiracy?"
Lu Chengsong frowned: "What else?"
Girls can always establish friendships within a short period of time, whether through shared interests or mutual dislikes. Clearly, Chu Ning and Lu Chengshi belong to the former category, as the two stood together, chatting warmly for a while. The midday sun gradually became hotter, and Lu Chengshi tugged at Chu Ning's arm, indicating that she should find a shaded spot: "It's too sunny; don't get heatstroke later."
Chuning wanted to laugh at her childishness, but suddenly heard the screams of young girls nearby. She quickly turned her head and saw a black nanny van stop not far away, from which Lu Chengsong emerged under the protection of bodyguards. Today, his bangs were not styled up, obediently covering a small part of his forehead. He was wearing a new shirt from Saint Laurent, a brand he cherished throughout his life.
A Tang poem: Just imagine, if you were to be chosen, is there anything in particular you would like to do
Lu Chengshi sighed at his phone and turned to look at his brother, who was exercising with dumbbells beside him: "How have you managed to get by? Even your fans have lost interest in you."
I told you long ago that she is a hater, but you didn't believe me. Lu Chengsong scoffed, his expression one of utter disdain
Xiao Chu is my biological mother: If I really have to say what I want to do, I actually... want to see him being kissed, hugged, and lifted high by Jiang Yan (shy face)
When Lu Chengshi arrived, Chu Ning was standing under the blazing sun with a DSLR camera, waiting for Lu Chengsong's nanny van. Being popular is indeed different; she had never seen so many fans at a press conference before. Turning her head, she noticed a little girl staring at the camera in her hands with bright eyes. After a moment of thought, Chu Ning extended the camera towards her, inquiring with her gaze.
So do you still want to undermine her
I can't believe she was selected! There were tens of thousands of applicants, and she was the one chosen! She can't have used up all her luck for the year on this, can she? I mean, she still needs to save some for the final statistics exam, right!
"It’s been a while since we could take photos here. If you feel too hot, you can wait for me over there. I’ll come find you once I’m done taking pictures," Chu Ning said as she pulled a lollipop from her pocket and playfully handed it to Lu Chengshi, as if soothing a child. "Be good, he should be here soon."
Lu Chengsong squinted his eyes and said, "You can just replace all the small cards in the lottery box with her name."
He ultimately compromised, and now all the cards in the box bear the same ID... Hopefully, this fan will not be too badly affected by Lu Chengsong
Lu Chengsong's smile became even more gentle and radiant as he personally walked to the edge of the stage and extended his hand to Chu Ning: "I am truly glad you could be here today, come, join me on stage."
Deng Yang extended his hand and threw another punch: "Do you think I am your father? You think you can just change whoever you want?"
She feels that she has developed inappropriate fantasies about her son, which is not good
Chuning exclaimed how could it be, yet she glanced at the photo she had just taken. In the instant capture, Lu Chengsong's gaze was gentle, perfectly directed at the camera, and the corners of his mouth, subtly hinting at a smile, made one feel as if they were basking in the spring breeze
I am very grateful to everyone for coming to participate in this event. I hope that the lucky fan I draw next can represent all of you to spend a pleasant time with me. For those who do not get drawn, there is no need to feel disheartened, as there will be opportunities for similar events in the future. " Lu Cheng said with a smile, turning around to reach into the lottery box. Deng Yang, standing offstage, turned his head slightly, unable to bear to look at the enthusiastic fans.
You really are quite idle. Lu Chengshi shot him a glance and then looked down to see the private message that Chuning had just sent.
In the next second, his face darkened: "Damn it."
Chun Ning was originally taking good photos when she suddenly noticed that Lu Chengsong's gaze was unabashedly directed at her, captured in the lens, exuding an indescribable tenderness. She became nervous, pressing her lips together, focusing solely on continuously pressing the shutter. Fortunately, that drowning gaze only lasted for a second before Lu Chengsong turned his head to greet the fans on the other side.
Hello, I hope we can get along well in the future. How should I address you?" Lu Chengsong's eyes crinkled with a smile, while Deng Yang in the audience felt even more guilty, as if he had personally pushed the girl into a wolf's den.
A Tang poem? Initial Ning mentioned her nickname, then revealed a friendly smile
At the same time that Lu Chengsong was constantly facing punches due to the dark undercurrents, Chu Ning was sitting in her dormitory writing her statistics assignment. To ensure the fairness, justice, and transparency of the lottery, a lottery ceremony would be held in three days, and Lu Chengsong would naturally attend. She had already assured the support group that she would definitely arrive on time this time and capture the best frontline images. Therefore, she needed to finish the assignment due next week first. She had already assured the support group that she would definitely arrive on time this time and capture the best frontline images. Therefore, she needed to finish the assignment due next week first
Lu Chengsong believes that when the contract expires one day, he must first dismiss Deng Yang. It is too violent, truly too violent
Lu Chengshi and the fans below: "... ..."
Deng Yang blinked, looking a bit hesitant at the exquisite face before him: "What did you say?"
It was unclear whether the screams around her had disturbed her sanity or if Lu Chengsong's smile was too disarming, but Chu Ning foolishly took the stage with her DSLR camera. The large screen in front of her cheerfully displayed her ID, and as she looked at the enormous words "Xiao Chu is the biological mother," she felt dizzy.
Chi-square test, parameter estimation, F-test, T-test... Initial Ning felt overwhelmed, spending half an hour on a single problem and only solving half of it. She decided to break down and recombine Little Fish's answers to ensure that her copying would not be too obvious. Her phone vibrated twice, and she looked down to see a private message.
Chuning was taken aback for a moment, then put down her pen and replied: It is impossible to draw my name; I have been a lottery insulation body since childhood
"What haters? Go check their homepage and see where they have criticized you? Don't create trouble for no reason." Deng Yang shot him a glance and said, "This lottery is completely transparent. The names of all participants are written on small cards and placed in a small box. You reach in and draw one; whoever you draw is the winner. There is no possibility of any behind-the-scenes manipulation."
A Tang poem: Dear, if the fan appreciation event allows you to be drawn with your idol, is there anything you would like to do together with him
That night, Chu Ning made her first appearance on the trending searches, with the trending title—You Can Call Me Mom
After careful consideration, Chu Ning realized that she was indeed free from desires and had no interest whatsoever in Lu Chengsong's physical form: No, I only want his signature
Amidst the screams of the fans, Lu Chengsong's cold face softened slightly as he politely waved to the fans beside him and walked towards the stage. Chu Ning had already raised her DSLR, capturing Lu Chengsong as he approached step by step. As she pressed the shutter, she couldn't help but feel that he seemed to have lost weight.
"Is it Xiao Chu Da Da?" Lu Chengshi tentatively walked over and saw Chu Ning slowly nodding her head
Lu Chengsong was struck by this punch, and tears welled up in his eyes. The cold and noble aura he had been projecting instantly shattered: "Is this how you act as a manager? Ignoring a hater and resorting to violence against your own artist here!"
"Xiao Chu, was he just looking at you?" Lu Chengshi said with an excited expression
Chuning was so startled that the DSLR in her hand nearly fell to the ground
The public lottery is scheduled for Saturday morning, which conveniently does not require skipping class. Chu Ning, being on the front line, arrived at the venue early to wait. Before coming, a little fan named "A Tang Poem" mentioned that they were also in the capital and insisted on meeting her. She thought it was nothing for fans to meet each other, so she agreed.
From childhood to adulthood, Lu Chengshi only has the memory of her brother repeatedly snatching away her candies; there has never been anyone who has gently coaxed her like that. Feeling a warmth in her heart, she took a step forward and leaned beside Chun Ning, her tone resolute: "I am not afraid of the sun; I will wait with you!"
He took out the card, and Lu Chengsong lowered his head to take a glance, the smile at the corner of his eyes deepening: "This fan looks a bit familiar to me. I wonder if she is present at the event today—Is Xiao Chu her biological mother?"
Lu Cheng's smiling lips twitched slightly: "... ..."
Lu Chengshi laughed heartily while holding his phone, which drew Lu Chengsong over as well, his hair slightly damp from exercise: "What are you laughing at?"
This person is my hater. I will participate in this reality show with her, and I want to see how long she can keep up the act. Brother, help me expose her.
