Chapter 33

Luo Yichen said, “I want to rest at home in the afternoon; I don’t want to be disturbed. Don’t come and bother me!”

Assistant Liu: “…” Why was he repeatedly given the cold shoulder recently?

He could only compromise. “Got it, you rest well at home. I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning. There’s a magazine cover shoot in the day, and we have to attend Shang Yun Fashion’s charity gala at night. The day after tomorrow…”

“I remember. Bye.” Luo Yichen promptly hung up before Assistant Liu could finish speaking.

Qu Ling’er heard Luo Yichen’s schedule and thought that it was tough being a celebrity—so busy! She also thought that it was not good to stay at Luo Yichen’s house. If she stayed here and was photographed by the paparazzi, it would definitely cause trouble for him. She thought about it and said tentatively, “Brother, I’ll move out in the afternoon. It’s not good to keep imposing you…”

“Where are you moving to?” Luo Yichen gave a cold-eyed stare. “Staying in a hotel? Do you think a hotel is safer than my home?”

Qu Ling’er quickly shook her head and said, “It’s not that. I just… Your career is taking off now. If my existence affects you…”

Luo Yichen understood then—the lass knew his identity.

Qu Ling’er felt that Luo Yichen had helped her too much. They barely knew each other but he had been helping her. She would remember this kindness. Now that she knew his identity, she was aware that a scandal could destroy him—she could not allow that to happen.

When Luo Yichen saw the lass’ furrowed brows, he said calmly, “What are you thinking about? You’re no one to me, so how could you possibly affect me?”

Qu Ling’er: “…” He was right. She was indeed no one to him.

Luo Yichen said airily, “You don’t have to think too much. Just stay here. You’ll be studying in Beijing soon, so don’t bother moving here and there.”

“Thank you, Brother,” Qu Ling’er said shyly.

Luo Yichen was not sure what he was thinking. But he knew one thing very well—he did not want her to leave!

“You didn’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry in the past?” Luo Yichen suddenly asked.

Qu Ling’er nodded and said, “Yes, I’m not good at remembering faces. I occasionally watch television dramas, but I don’t really remember the names and faces of celebrities.”

“What dramas have you watched?” Luo Yichen asked.

By then, Qu Ling’er relaxed a little and said, “Usually suspense; like the web novel I wrote.”

“What about movies?” Luo Yichen asked again. He had only acted in four movies in the past few years. Although he had already won an award for Best Leading Performance, he understood that his career in the entertainment industry was still young.

“I don’t watch many movies,” Qu Ling’er answered honestly.

Luo Yichen had been very popular in the past few years, but his work was only in movies. She did not watch many movies—so she only found Luo Yichen familiar—even though she had heard Luo Yichen’s name countless times.

“When are you going to study in Beijing?” Luo Yichen suddenly changed the topic and asked when Qu Ling’er would go to Beijing.

“On the eighteenth.”

“That’s a week later,” Luo Yichen said. “Beijing University is pretty good.”

Qu Ling’er looked at Luo Yichen and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Brother—going by your age—you haven’t graduated from university yet, right?”

“I’ve already graduated,” Luo Yichen said coolly.

Qu Ling’er asked in disbelief, “You’ve already graduated? But aren’t you only 21 years old?”

Luo Yichen explained, “I debuted at the age of 18—the same year I was admitted to Huaguang Academy. I didn’t have much work in the past few years. I spent two years self-studying all the courses and graduated early. After that, I got a master’s degree and started studying for a PhD. I should be able to graduate in a year or two.”

Qu Ling’er was astounded. Huaguang Academy was as famous as Beijing University! Yet, Luo Yichen said it so casually. It was really…

His fans said that Luo Yichen was a straight A student. Although there was not much news about his studies online, some people who claimed to be his classmates had revealed that he was a straight A top student.

Qu Ling’er sighed, “Brother, you are really amazing!”

The corners of Luo Yichen’s lips curled up. “It’s alright.”

This was considered alright?

“Huaguang Academy is also in Beijing. You live in Shen City. Don’t you need to go to school?” Qu Ling’er asked.

Luo Yichen glanced at Qu Ling’er, wondering why the lass did not get it. Then he said lightly, “Because it’s summer vacation now.”

Qu Ling’er: “…” Of course, Luo Yichen need not be bogged down by his studies during the summer vacation. She was in the middle of the summer vacation herself! How could she be so stupid…
