Huayu is here for you

Chapter 148 Let's Talk It Over

"If there had been any empty seats downstairs at that restaurant, wouldn't we have had to eat there? I think that was the meaning behind Mr. Lin's look when he went in!" Shu Chang said, somewhat puzzled. "Hehe—you mean that? It's alright. Who would have thought we'd eat there? Besides, unless they're die-hard fans, even if they saw us, they wouldn't think it was us. And besides, my senior brother and I are used to this kind of thing." Miss Liu said calmly, "Oh? Really? Is this how you and Mr. Lin always eat together?"

"Yeah! And several times I stood in front of fans holding my posters, and they didn't even recognize me, haha—I was even thinking of signing autographs for them, but then I almost broke down. Do you know what they said to me back then?" Miss Liu suddenly became interested and asked, "What?"

"They said: 'Heh, you? Liu Yifei? I have to admit you do look a bit like her, but look at what you're wearing. If you want to impersonate her, at least wear something decent, right? Also, how could my goddess possibly eat here? And with a man by her side? And not even wearing a mask or sunglasses? Are you kidding me?'"

Pfft—Hahaha! I asked them right then and there, what kind of person do you think Liu Yifei should be?

Their answers were quite consistent; they all thought I should be the kind of person who always had a bunch of bodyguards and assistants with her, complete with sunglasses and a mask, with bodyguards clearing the way and assistants holding umbrellas beside me. That's how they imagined me, haha—the senior student next to me almost laughed himself to death!" Ms. Liu said, somewhat amused.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu couldn't help but recall the scene from that time. Miss Liu was indeed not lying; Lin Yu and she had encountered this situation several times before.

It's unclear whether Ms. Liu suddenly became a bit naive or simply acted out of her own naiveté, but she insisted on proving to everyone that she was indeed Liu Yifei.

Although Lin Yu wasn't particularly afraid of his relationship with Miss Liu being exposed, he figured it was better to avoid trouble. So Lin Yu was thinking of stopping Miss Liu, but he didn't expect that the more Miss Liu testified to those people, the less they believed her, to the point that Lin Yu even wanted to step in and act as a witness for Miss Liu.

"Really? You really can't recognize me? I often eat in crowded places, but I never thought of going up there and revealing myself. Qianqian, you're not lying to me, are you?" Shu Chang asked in surprise. "Really, you can ask your senior brother if you don't believe me." Miss Liu turned to Lin Yu and gestured.

"That's right! I can testify to that."

Lin Yu nodded and continued, "Changchang, actually, in our line of work, as long as your schedule isn't leaked and you don't go to places where celebrities frequently visit, ordinary people won't associate us with celebrities. After all, most people in this world are busy making a living, who would specifically observe a stranger?"

"Oh, I see. No wonder. I thought I was past my prime several times!" Shu Chang said with a sudden realization, while Miss Liu seemed to be thinking of something and fell silent for a moment.

"However, you still need to be careful with the paparazzi and reporters, after all, that's their job. But as for ordinary people, you can be more casual, because the more casual you are, the less they will associate you with being a celebrity," Lin Yu said softly. "And even if you are discovered, it's okay, celebrities are people too! Just be poised and let them feel that being a celebrity is just like their job, it's just a job for them, and they won't get so excited. But you still need to be careful, some crazy fans might do something irrational, so try not to be alone when you're out."

"Yes, Mr. Lin, I understand. I also understand why you've been urging our artists at Starlight Entertainment to be rational in their fandom."

"Alright, it's getting late, let's hurry up, you have filming tomorrow."

After the three quickened their pace, they returned to the hotel in less than half the time it took them to get there.

After seeing Shu Chang into the room, Ms. Liu did not return to her own room, but instead followed Lin Yu into his room.

Lin Yu looked at Miss Liu, who had been following behind him, and walked into the gate with him, and several question marks appeared on his head.

"Sissi, aren't you going to rest?"

"It'll be later, anyway, it's right next to yours, not far." Miss Liu walked to the sofa in the room and sat down, saying:

Lin Yu noticed that Liu's appearance was a bit off. "What's wrong, Qianqian? Did something happen?"

"Senior brother, please sit down here." Miss Liu patted the seat next to her.

Hearing Miss Liu's invitation, Lin Yu sat down next to her without hesitation and took her hand. "Tell me! What's bothering you this time?"

After looking at Lin Yu in silence for a few seconds, Miss Liu slowly leaned on his shoulder. "I'm sorry, senior brother, I think I misunderstood you today."

Lin Yu: "?? What's with the apology right off the bat?"

"What's wrong, Qianqian? What misunderstanding did you have about me? You should explain yourself to me first!" Lin Yu said anxiously, "When you hired that receptionist today, I thought you'd changed! I thought you were a bit cold-blooded, but then I understood when you talked to Changchang. Senior brother, you did the right thing. I was just being too one-sided." Miss Liu hugged Lin Yu's arm, feeling a little guilty, and said, "Just because of that?"

"Um."

"Hehe, you silly girl! What are you thinking? Do you think your senior brother is that kind of cold-blooded person? You don't trust me at all?" Lin Yu said, somewhat amused and exasperated, "Didn't I apologize? I know I was wrong."

"Oh, you! Girl, this matter isn't a big deal, but it's not insignificant either. Since we've brought it up today, I'll tell you all about it." Lin Yu hugged Miss Liu and leaned her against the back of the sofa.

"Sissi, in our entertainment industry, the private information of a film and television company and its artists is quite important, and it involves many aspects. For example, if I want to make a new movie, I will definitely make a targeted publicity plan in the early stage."

For example, the trailers for our film "The Witch" were released in stages before its theatrical release, which helped maintain the film's buzz throughout.
