“Uncle, is that really you?”
An Qiao was obviously satisfied with her performance . He subconsciously wanted to touch his beard but touched an empty space instead . He was not used to it and coughed once .
“In order not to let the media say that we are beauty and the beast, I deliberately shaved off my precious beard of many years . How is it? I won’t embarrass you, right?”
Lin Wanwan gave a big thumbs up and signaled a “like . ” “That’s a lot of face you’re giving!”
The years she and An Qiao had known each other were not few . This was the first time she realized that such a face was hidden under his big and rough beard .
Although he wasn’t exceptionally handsome, he had refined features and was fair-skinned . He totally didn’t look like a 35-year-old rugged man .
“Hahaha!”
Lin Wanwan smiled as well . “It’s better if you keep a beard in the future . ”
“Why?”
“You already look like a conman when you were ‘picking up’ people on the streets in the past . If you show this kind of face in public, nobody would believe that you are a famous director . ”
An Qiao was speechless .
Both of them laughed for a while and started eating hot pot .
As An Qiao rinsed the beef in the spicy pot, he greeted Lin Wanwan with enthusiasm . “Although the scale of this shop is not big and the decorations are average-looking, this shop has a history of over a hundred years . The soup broth is fantastic . I have eaten at so many hot pot restaurants but still find that the taste here is the best . ”
Lin Wanwan tried a piece of meat and made a sound of agreement, “Delicious!”
“Eat more . It’s my treat . ”
“I won’t be polite with you then!”
Both of them ate for two hours before they were satisfied and were ready to leave .
Lin Wanwan opened the door of the reserved room . At this moment, a person ran past in a hurry and knocked her with his shoulder . Fortunately, An Qiao was sharp-eyed and agile enough to help her .
“Be careful . ”
“No worries, no worries . It’s getting late . Let’s go . ”
Lin Wanwan pulled up her scarf higher to cover half of her face and left together with An Qiao .
They did not realize that a sneaky fellow on the right side of the corridor was using the potted plants to hide himself from view . He raised the camera in his hands, aimed it at the back view of the two, and started to furiously snap away .
An Qiao left after sending her to the school gate . Lin Wanwan returned to the hostel alone to sleep .
After waking up, she habitually refreshed the trending news in the entertainment circle and saw a piece of ridiculous news .
‘ Newbie actress Lin Wanwan met mysterious man at night . Suspected underground relationship is exposed . It’s actually him! ‘
‘ Lin Wanwan had dinner with a man, and they were behaving intimately . ‘
There were a few photos underneath the caption .
One was of An Qiao holding her . Another was of An Qiao opening the car door for her . There was also one that captured the back view of the two leaving the hot pot restaurant together .
Lin Wanwan wanted to laugh . It looked like she wasn’t the only one with bad eyesight .
Compared to Lin Wanwan’s calmness, the netizens on Weibo were having a heated discussion .
‘ Don’t you find Lin Wanwan’s private life very messy? First, there was young Tang . Then, there was a blue-blooded man . Now, a new relationship has been exposed . Even if we don’t know if this is true or false, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is not simple from their actions . ’
‘She’s still underage but already straddling so many boats? Me and other singles admire her . Admire! ‘
‘ Such a person can become a public figure too . Isn’t anyone afraid that her actions will teach children wrongly? ‘
‘ I say, some people, don’t say grapes are sour when you can’t eat them . Firstly, Lin Wanwan is single . Who she wants to fall in love with is her freedom . Secondly, a celebrity is human too . What business is it of yours if her relationship is richer than others? Worrying for nothing! ‘
