Chapter 1350: Chapter 1350: Being a Celebrity Is Really Exhausting
“Xiao Bai.”
Meng Shuqing sent a message to An Bai, directly sending the photo and the forum screenshot to him.
“Not bad.”
An Bai quickly replied.
Meng Shuqing: …
Soon, An Bai sent another message, saying: Didn’t you say those people at school chasing you are causing you trouble? I’ll reluctantly be your shield then.
“Ah…”
Meng Shuqing immediately started a video call.
“Xiao Bai, what do you mean, a shield?” Meng Shuqing directly voiced her confusion.
In the video, An Bai was wearing a white shirt, with the top two buttons undone, revealing his tanned skin. The angle added to An Bai’s dashing aura.
An Bai has great facial features, with distinct lines, especially his eyes, perfectly black and white, deep and mysterious, as if they could speak.
“How could someone as smart as Xiaoqing not understand what I mean?” An Bai grinned, showing his white teeth.
Meng Shuqing held her fluttering heart, unable to resist saying: Who says only women have the charm of a glance back? In her view, An Bai’s smile could captivate too!
“Oh, let me think about it.”
Meng Shuqing said sternly before immediately hanging up the video call.
Oh dear, if she watched any longer, she’d make a joke of herself.
Meng Shuqing looked at her phone, wondering if it was her imagination that An Bai seemed much more charming after not seeing him for several years, enough to make even her, used to handsome men, lose focus.
Shield?
Indeed, many people at school pursued her, but even the strongest Ding Peng had backed off, leaving the rest not much worth noting.
“Chenchen, let’s go to school.” In the restaurant, having just finished breakfast, Jian Xing looked satisfied.
Once Meng Shuqing and Jian Xing arrived at the school, it seemed like their classmates were acting differently. Some students even approached and asked, “Senior Sister Meng, could you give me your autograph?”
“I’m not a celebrity.” Meng Shuqing shook her head, appearing confused.
The student looked at Meng Shuqing with some embarrassment and said, “Senior Sister Meng, I watched you play the piano yesterday. You’re also great at studying. I thought if I had your autograph, maybe I could absorb some of the study aura.”
The student, a shy girl, had a red face, and when speaking with Sheng Shuqing, her eyes showed sincerity and hope. Meng Shuqing thought for a moment and agreed, signing her name across the notebook in beautiful cursive.
“Thank you, Senior Sister Meng.” The student held the autograph like a precious treasure, so excited she didn’t know what to say.
With this beginning, more people wanted autographs.
Although an autograph wouldn’t turn them into academic geniuses, being able to observe their goddess up close was enough to make them happy!
Luckily, class time was fast approaching, and Jian Xing rescued Meng Shuqing, who massaged her sore wrist, saying, “Being a star isn’t easy!”
Jian Xing couldn’t help rolling her eyes and said, “Chenchen, didn’t you see their faces just now? They almost became reporters, wanting to ask who the male idol behind you was yesterday.”
“What’s it to them?”
“Curiosity!”
Jian Xing giggled as she leaned in, saying, “People will definitely ask you about this today.”
Meng Shuqing: …
After class, Meng Shuqing quickly escaped, not giving anyone the chance to ask questions.
Meng Shuqing ran out of the school, heading straight to the restaurant behind it. The restaurant was small but very busy.
The restaurant looked clean, and Meng Shuqing particularly enjoyed the stir-fried clams there; the taste was fantastic!
“Chenchen, over here.”
Jian Xing had finished class early and was waiting, having already ordered the dishes they both liked. She said, “So, is everyone waiting to ask you?”
“No.” Meng Shuqing shook her head.
Jian Xing was doubtful.
Meng Shuqing smirked, not telling her she had dashed out.
Even if people wanted to ask, they wouldn’t have the chance!
Jian Xing and Meng Shuqing chose a corner seat, arrived early, sitting with their backs to the outside. As the food was served, and before they finished eating, they could hear discussions about her and the male idol behind her.
Meng Shuqing raised an eyebrow, pretending not to hear their conversations, focusing on battling the delicious food.
Jian Xing held back her laughter, almost bursting.
When they left, the people discussing gossip earlier were shocked to realize Meng Shuqing was indeed dining here. Their excited voices went silent, awkwardly lowering their heads, feeling embarrassed that the person they were gossiping about had overheard.
Even though they were eager to know the details, they didn’t dare ask!
“Hahaha~!”
Jian Xing laughed so hard she almost cried.
Suddenly, her laughter abruptly stopped.
Chu Huaijin stood in front of them, seemingly waiting for her.
“Brother Jin, have you eaten? We just finished.” Meng Shuqing was always respectful towards Chu Huaijin, treating him like an elder brother from next door.
“Not yet.”
Chu Huaijin’s gaze lingered on Meng Shuqing. As Jian Xing was about to leave, Meng Shuqing grabbed her hand and, with a bright smile, turned to Chu Huaijin, suggesting, “How about we keep you company while you eat?”
Jian Xing felt conflicted, having just eaten and unable to take more.
Chu Huaijin glanced at Meng Shuqing, then Jian Xing, and finally shook his head, saying, “No need, I came to tell you that my mom sent you something.”
“Aunt Qin sent me something?” Meng Shuqing’s eyes lit up, “Please thank Aunt Qin for me.”
“I’ll bring it to you after school this afternoon.” Chu Huaijin said, turning to leave.
“Tsk tsk tsk, look at his grieving, disappointed, and forlorn back!”
Jian Xing shook her head as she commented.
Meng Shuqing placed her hand on Jian Xing’s shoulder and asked, “Want to chase after Brother Jin?”
Jian Xing was startled and quickly said, “Chenchen, don’t matchmake us randomly, isn’t it messy enough?”
“But his mom sent you something?” Jian Xing hesitated to speak.
Meng Shuqing laughed and explained, “It’s okay, our families are close. When my mom sends me stuff, she also remembers Brother Jin.”
Aunt Qin usually sends her snacks she loves or some pretty gifts.

“Brother Jin.”
As Meng Shuqing opened the door, she discovered it wasn’t Chu Huaijin outside but An Bai.
An Bai’s originally happy expression instantly drooped.
Meng Shuqing cleared her throat and explained, “Brother Jin mentioned earlier that Aunt Qin sent me something, so I thought he brought it.”
“Haven’t eaten yet?” An Bai walked into the house with things in hand. In the kitchen was a packet of instant noodles, making An Bai’s brows furrow as he said, “This isn’t nutritious. Coincidentally, I haven’t eaten either.”
An Bai rolled up his sleeves and began unpacking the dishes he had bought one by one.
