In the car, Lin Ze acted like a mother, reminding Shen Wanwan about everything while he drove.
"This time, I've arranged an assistant for you. My assistant and I will take care of your daily life when you're on set."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Lin."
Shen Wanwan nodded, and Lin Ze reminded her a few more times before telling her to rest while the journey was still long.
Shen Wanwan agreed and closed her eyes to rest. After half an hour of driving, the car stopped outside the airport. Just as Lin Ze was about to call Shen Wanwan, she opened her eyes.
"Have we arrived, Brother Lin?"
"We're here. Let's get out of the car."
Lin Ze said as he unbuckled his seatbelt. He got out of the car and went to the trunk to get his luggage. Shen Wanwan had just gotten out of the car and was about to walk to the airport, but she was pulled back by Lin Ze.
"Oh, my little girl, quickly put on your mask and hat."
Lin Ze hurriedly took out the sunglasses and mask he had prepared and handed them to Shen Wanwan.
"What if someone recognizes us? Hurry up and disguise yourself!"
Seeing Lin Ze's nervous expression, Shen Wanwan felt helpless.
"Brother Lin, I've just debuted. How can I have any fans?"
However, Shen Wanwan still obediently put on the mask and hat. After covering herself tightly, the two of them went straight to the airport lobby.
As expected, the two of them passed through the crowd without any obstruction and arrived directly at the baggage check-in counter. They did not attract anyone's attention throughout the entire journey.
After checking in their luggage, Shen Wanwan and Lin Ze were about to head straight to the VIP lounge when screams came from behind them.
The two of them turned around at the same time, only to see a group of people holding signs or cameras surrounding someone.
Occasional screams and the sound of camera clicks could be heard, while the flashing lights were particularly eye-catching in the crowd.
"Ah, Anan, look at me!"
"Ah, Anan is so pretty!"
"Anan, look at me quickly, I like you!"
The voices of male fans were loud and could be heard throughout the airport, attracting the curious attention of ordinary tourists.
"Brother Lin, let's go."
Shen Wanwan retracted her gaze and turned to walk towards the VIP lounge. On the way, Lin Ze was carefully observing Shen Wanwan and speaking in a gentle voice to comfort her.
"Wanwan, you will have many fans coming to pick you up in the future."
"Well, I'd rather not have anyone recognize us now. Look, it's almost too crowded over there."
Shen Wanwan said as she turned around to look at the crowd. Her face was full of fear. Looking at the crowd, she couldn't help but recall her previous life.
In her previous life, she had gotten a good role when she had just debuted. It was through this role that she became famous and gained many fans.
After that, whether it was a private trip or a public trip, she would be met with fans at the airport. At that time, she thought having too many fans was a headache.
At the very least, travel and other activities were easily affected.
"What are you talking about?"
Lin Ze looked at Shen Wanwan helplessly. As they spoke, the two of them had already walked into the VIP lounge. Shen Wanwan found a seat by the window and sat down, quietly waiting to board.
Just as they sat down, two women wearing sunglasses walked into the lounge quickly and went straight to where Shen Wanwan and Lin Ze were.
"Brother Lin."
One of them took off his sunglasses and greeted Lin Ze first. Lin Ze only nodded lightly in response.
"Brother Lin, is this your new artiste?"
The woman looked at Shen Wanwan and introduced herself with a smile.
"Hello, I'm Fang Lili, the manager of YXL Group."
Fang Lili said as she reached out her hand. As a junior, Shen Wanwan politely stood up and shook hands with Fang Lili. The two of them just shook hands and then let go.
"Brother Lin, this is my new artiste, An Ling'er."
Fang Lili said as she waved to the person behind her. "Ling'er, come over and say hello to Brother Lin."
When Shen Wanwan heard the name An Ling'er, she instantly raised her head and looked at the woman, who was still wearing sunglasses and a mask.
She had heard that An Ling'er was a rising star lately, and it seemed that the airport pick-up earlier was for her.
"Hello, Brother Lin, I'm An Ling'er. I've heard a lot about you, and I hope we can work together in the future."
An Ling'er took off her sunglasses and greeted Lin Ze, but Lin Ze responded in a polite yet distant manner. Despite being a recently popular celebrity, An Ling'er didn't receive any special treatment from Lin Ze.
"Yes."
The polite and distant response made An Ling'er feel a little embarrassed. She had been in a bad mood for the past two days and had thought that if she took the initiative to lower her status and greet someone, the other party would give a warmer response.
However, she didn't expect Lin Ze so indifferent. Such a response made An Ling'er feel embarrassed. She secretly gritted her teeth and wanted to say something, but when she thought of Lin Ze's status, she shut her mouth.
Instead, she shifted her attention to Shen Wanwan, who was beside Lin Ze.
"This sister should be the artiste you've been working with recently, right? May I know her name? I want to be friends with sister."
An Ling'er's scheming words came again, and Shen Wanwan felt a little uncomfortable being called "sister". She wondered how wonderful An Ling'er's expression would be when she took off her mask and revealed her face.
"Hello, Miss An."
Nonetheless, as a junior, Shen Wanwan remained polite to avoid any negative attention from An Ling'er.
The entertainment industry was a complex world. Who knew what was real or fake?
Shen Wanwan didn't want to become involved with An Ling'er before becoming famous.
"Sister, do you not like me? Did I do something wrong? If so, I apologize. Please don't hate me, okay?"
An Ling'er's tears flowed freely as she looked at Shen Wanwan with a pitiful expression as if she had been bullied by Shen Wanwan.
Lin Ze, who had seen the other party's scheming words, did not want Shen Wanwan to be bullied. He stood up immediately.
"Ms. An, you must be joking. My artiste is afraid of strangers, but it's not that she doesn't like you. Please don't misunderstand."
Lin Ze's response was not very polite, as he had witnessed the woman's disgusting behavior before. The company had even tried to assign her to him, but he had refused.
If he hadn't insisted on it, he would probably have to take care of this girl. Thinking of this, Lin Ze was extremely glad.
"Is that so?"
An Ling'er bit her lip, her eyes filled with a hint of resentment. Just as she was about to say something, her manager pulled her hand.
"Brother Lin, it's almost time for us to board the plane. See you next time."
"Alright."
Lin Ze was relieved to see the two women leave. These two women are quite destined to be put together. Neither of them is an easy one to deal with.
"Then we'll leave first."
After speaking, Fang Lili impatiently pulled the extremely unwilling An Ling'er away. An Ling'er struggled several times.
"Sister Fang, why are you pulling me?"
