Chapter 184 How Crazy

A little after 9 a.m. on September 16, a little dragonfly spotted Lu Nanting at Harbin Taiping International Airport and thought she was seeing things.

After all, he was wrapped up very tightly.

Not only was he wearing a mask and sunglasses, but he also pulled up the large hood of his camouflage jacket, making it impossible to see his face.

The two brushed past each other, the man taking one step while she took two.

The Martin boots clattered on the smooth ground, making a brisk, steady sound as they walked.

The familiar aura, the familiar figure, and the familiar way of walking...

Her heart pounded, and her first reaction was to stop, pull out her phone, and frantically take pictures of the person.

After finishing the shoot, I let out a long sigh, feeling a sense of loss.

In recent years, many trendy men have liked to dress like this.

Although he looked very similar in many ways, he appeared alone at the airport, without his bodyguards or assistants who were always with him. Little Dragonfly could only convince herself that she must have been mistaken.

As soon as she stepped out of the airport, her fan group exploded!
However, a fan site admin found out Lu Nanting's flight information for that night and burst into tears in the group chat in anger:
[Such an important shoot, a five-day trip, and on the very first day, instead of going back to the hotel to rest after wrapping up late at night, he rushed to the airport alone, transferring twice, just to get to Kaiyuan County as quickly as possible. I thought something had happened to the gossipmonger, but it turns out he just had a cold and fever?! Has this world finally been taken over by love-struck fools?! Lu Nanting!! What are you doing?! Have you completely gone mad?!]

The fan site admin was a staunch solo stan. She vented her frustrations in the group chat and soon changed her profile picture to black.

Many of her close friends in the group tried to contact her, but received no response.

He was clearly furious about this.

But she revealed far too much information.

Many people in the production crew knew that Gu Lanxi had a high fever, so it was relatively easy to find out more information.

Lu Nanting's five-day trip to Harbin was a publicly known itinerary, but what was unknown to most people was that he didn't finish filming until midnight on the first day.

Because the filming location was an indoor ski resort with very good security, you couldn't find out about these things without connections.

As for the fact that he went to the airport alone in the middle of the night, transferred twice, and rushed to Kaiyuan County in a hurry, no one knew about that.

After all, when the news broke, even Lu Nanting's bodyguards had only just discovered that he was missing.

In the past, although Little Dragonfly would often get into fights with people, Lu Nanting didn't like to cause trouble, and others generally didn't provoke him either, so everyone's schedule was quite regular.

Since he got married, he's basically made a splash every few days.

That kind of trending topic is enough to annoy not only the rivals, but also the fans!
Little Yuanbao is doing alright, but Little Dragonfly and Little Slippers are either staying up late to indulge in sweets or staying up late to defend their idols, fight back against negative publicity, and boost their rankings. In less than two months, each of them has gained a pair of panda eyes.

Some people are complaining online that next time there's an event, don't bring banners or headbands. Family members can just look at each other and see who has dark circles under their eyes; that's basically how you recognize someone!
[He posted a Weibo at 2:30 AM on the 14th, making me stay up all night. And now he's doing this on the 16th? If this keeps up, whether I can continue supporting him won't be up to me anymore; it'll depend on whether my 40-year-old body can handle it!]

At least I got a day to catch up on sleep, so I'll just grin and laugh!

On the bright side, before our son became this popular, we had to stay up all night boosting his popularity and data, worrying about everything for him. Now that he's famous, he can trend on social media with just a few things, saving us so much trouble. It's definitely better to be famous.

Just checked my son's stats, he's definitely a top star by a wide margin. It feels like my son is growing up so fast, who understands?

[We really should look on the bright side. This young master, who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, has the courage to go out alone in the middle of the night and manage his schedule so well; it's truly admirable.]

……

After chatting for a while, the fan site admin finally reappeared.

[I've found my return flight; I should be able to make it for tomorrow afternoon's filming. Ugh, my eyes are so swollen from crying, and then I can't help but feel sorry for them. It's a round trip of over ten hours; I probably won't even have time to eat before having to rush back. Do they really love each other that much?]

As the popularity of the little slippers grew, many fans secretly switched allegiances and became fans of both Lu Nanting and Gu Lanxi.

Enjoying their sweet moments every day is much more interesting than doing boring data analysis!
It's actually quite normal for fans to make this choice.

Since they are not rumored to be dating or a business couple, there is no psychological burden for him to switch his allegiance to them.

[Sigh, my eldest son is obsessed with her, but we always disagree. It makes us seem like the wicked mother-in-law. Suddenly, I realize it's all pointless. His own mother is happily accepting it, so what's the point of us rejecting her? We're just making ourselves unpopular.]

[If their relationship runs into problems, we'll have to choose between them...]

Who can predict the future?

……

While the group was arguing, the little dragonfly they had met at the airport posted the photo in the group chat:
[I just came out of the airport, and I think I just missed my brother. Take a look at the photo, is that him?]

Unlike Gu Lanxi, who was a bit of a simpleton, Lu Nanting didn't even dare to carry around handmade gifts from fans.

There was nothing on him that revealed personal information.

Although the clothes and backpack were from the brand she endorsed, they weren't exactly unique custom-made pieces. Even the only thing that could prove her identity—the custom necklace—was hidden inside her clothes, so the little dragonfly didn't even notice her as they passed each other.

Fans, armed with their own microscopes, meticulously analyzed the photos they obtained. Then, Lu Nanting was photographed taking off his mask to drink water on the plane.

Once the people got off the plane, the photos were immediately spread everywhere!
The dragonfly sisters felt even more sorry for her.

Because of the rush, Lu Nanting could only buy an economy class ticket.

Such a big guy, cramped in a small seat, with a mother with a child behind him, the child making a lot of noise the whole way.

On the second flight, he didn't take off his mask, but he was recognized by fans and got autographs and photos with them!
By the time he transferred to his third flight, the whole internet knew that this young master was on a long journey, crossing thousands of kilometers and going through all sorts of hardships, just to visit his sick wife on the set of the TV series "Lurking"!
Every time Lu Nanting lands, he is in a hurry. Even if he has to wait, he will go to the VIP lounge, where he will hardly encounter any people.

The airport knew he was traveling alone, especially when he took the second flight.

Fearing a stampede, someone would always lead the way for him to minimize the time he spent in the crowd.

After getting off the plane, he wasn't afraid. He hailed a Didi (ride-hailing service) and headed straight to the film set.

The driver was quite excited to have picked him up, but he remained composed. He only asked for a photo and autograph on his hat before waving goodbye.

With this, Lu Nanting's journey came to an end, and the fans' hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, were finally at ease.

There was no getting lost, no being mobbed by stalkers, and no flight delays or other disruptions to the plan.

After more than eight hours, we finally arrived successfully.

that is really good!
When Lu Nanting arrived at the film set and saw Gu Lanxi, he saw with his own eyes that she had indeed recovered and was not lying. Only then did he take out the things he had brought from his bag and hand them to Niu Lili.

What did you bring me?

After filming a scene, seeing him taking something out of his bag, Gu Lanxi leaned closer to him and craned her neck to look inside.

Lu Nanting is very honest:

"Someone gave me an old ginseng root. I'm feeling weak, so I need to nourish myself properly. There's also a small bag of rice. I'll have Aunt Wang cook some porridge for you later. When you have a cold, you need to drink fragrant porridge to replenish your energy."

"what?"

Gu Lanxi thought she had misheard, and she was extremely surprised!
"Rice! Authentic Wuchang rice! I think it's delicious, so I went to the kitchen and asked for a bag. I have to leave soon, so take good care of yourself, okay?"

As they were talking, her waist was suddenly grabbed.

It's much warmer here than in Harbin. He took off his coat and draped it over the back of the chair, leaving him wearing only a white printed long-sleeved shirt.

Just as I was about to say I shouldn't feel reluctant, I felt my chest get wet.

He couldn't help but sigh, and patted her head: "I'll come again next week, okay?"

Gu Lanxi just cried quietly without saying a word.

There were people all around her, and she was afraid of being laughed at.

Lu Nanting felt heartbroken and gently stroked her back until she calmed down. Then he took the tissue Zhuang Xiaotong offered and gently wiped away her tears.

"I'll video call you after I finish work, okay?"

Gu Lanxi remained silent, only holding his hand and counting his fingers one by one.

Only when Lu Nanting hesitated, as if he was about to say he wanted to stay, did she release her grip and gently push him away.
"Let's hurry up and not miss our flight."

Lu Nanting was also decisive. He quickly picked up his coat to cover his wet clothes, picked up his bag, and left.

If he didn't leave soon, he was afraid that the dead leg would have its own ideas and change its mind.

The production crew knew he was leaving and sent several people to see him off.

The car drove straight out of the film set. Gu Lanxi felt completely drained and stood there, watching it go from afar.

As soon as the car drove out of the film set, it was blocked by someone.

The poisoners who had been lying in wait for Gu Lanxi on the surrounding peaks rushed over and finally arrived, only to find that he was leaving after less than half an hour. They all went crazy! They chased after the car, pounding on the windows! They screamed at the top of their lungs:
"Lu Nanting! Are you crazy?"

"Are you crazy?! You traveled almost fourteen hours round trip just to see her once?!"

"Just how much do you love that loudmouth? Just how much?!"

"Ah!!! How could you do this?!?!"

Good morning, friends!
