Initially, Qiao Lian had stood among the crowd, not saying anything or trying to stand out much.
But seeing how much these fans idolized and protected him, she couldn’t help but feel honor and pride welling up in her.
She was happy for Shen Liangchuan.
And these fans… were just like her. They had loved him and been his fans since he had started his acting career.
As these thoughts ran through her mind, they heard loud gasps through the crowd. She immediately looked in their direction.
An exclusive black Bentley sedan pulled to a slow stop outside the hotel entrance.
Following this, someone walked up to open the car door. Then, a lanky leg extended out from inside the car.
Shortly after, he got out and stood up.
“Ahhhhhh!”
The fans went wild, the noise was deafening.
Amidst all of the commotion, Qiao Lian felt her world suddenly light up.
He was like the sun, no matter where he went. He was always the focus of everyone’s attention.
Qiao Lian’s eyes were fixed on his face, and there she lost herself.
He had grown even thinner than when she had left him.
His cheekbones had become more prominent, which made his side profile more defined and sharp.
His eyes were as deep and dark as ever, but now she could see some heavy emotions lurking beneath. As she looked at him, she found her breathing slightly labored.
As usual, he was expressionless. He swept his thin gaze over the crowd of fans.
Whatever direction he looked, loud gasps and cries of excitement could be heard from that direction.
Qiao Lian’s heart was naturally full and bursting with pride that Shen Liangchuan was so revered by all these people.
Her emotions were complex and her eyes turned moist.
She had seen him now.
And his complexion was indeed radiant.
The dark circles under his eyes had lightened up, a sign that he had probably been feeling better these days.
She was happy for him, yet sad for herself.
Her existence in itself was a tragedy.
It seemed that her departure had indeed been the right choice.
She felt her throat tightening up and the familiar stinging of her nose, as the brim of her eyes began to swell.
Right at this time…
“Best Actor Shen, do you remember me? I’m Chuanliu Buxi!”
Chuanliu Buxi screamed loudly, making Shen Liangchuan turn to look in their direction.
Qiao Lian’s heart jumped as she quickly looked down to hide her face.
And even though she had done that, from the corner of her eye, her gaze was fixed firmly on the man. She ultimately could not bear to look elsewhere.
She knew that a moment gone would be one moment less.
She must treasure every second she had.
She knew too, that she would not be able to partic.i.p.ate in the meet-and-greet session.
Because she feared that she would not be able control herself and would rush right up to him.
She saw that as he cast his gaze in their direction, he nodded slightly at Chuanliu Buxi. Right after, he looked back at the red carpet that stretched before him and followed its lead into the hotel lobby.
The security officers held back the fans who had swarmed forward, closing in to try to follow him into the hotel.
He walked slowly in their direction… Then, he moved right past Qiao Lian and straight ahead.
Qiao Lian stood rooted to the ground in a daze, her eyes following his every move and not letting up till she could only see his back.
She knew that soon he would disappear.
But as he stepped into the hotel lobby, he halted as though he had suddenly realized something. Then he spun around.
All the fans, initially feeling dejected that he was finally going to disappear from their view, now exploded into a frenzy again as he turned around.
“Best Actor Shen! Best Actor Shen!”
The excited screams sounded all over again. The crowd surged forward in attempt to get closer to their idol.
Qiao Lian did not dare to go near. She wanted to take a step backward when she was shoved and found herself staggering forward from the force. The next moment, she was falling on the ground.
