Chapter 307: Chapter 307 - 303: On Her Room’s Bed...

Shi Su now has more and more fans, and there are quite a few obsessive ones too.

Their crew came to H City for filming, and somehow the news leaked out. Over the past two days, there have been quite a few fans camping near the hotel. Whether it’s the hotel’s front door, back door, side doors, or the underground parking lot, there are fans everywhere, including many professional photographers.

The driver made a few extra rounds on H City’s streets to make sure that no fans would see which direction the car was coming from before quietly pulling up to the hotel’s back door.

Sure enough, the fans didn’t guess which entrance they’d use today. There weren’t many people at the back door. After Shi Su got out of the car, she walked inside, hearing a few scattered small fans shouting her name.

She looked back to see a group of young girls.

"It’s so late already, and you’re still waiting outside? Go home early," she said after checking the time. "You can see me at official events. Don’t follow my private itinerary. It’s not safe if it’s too late."

She just wanted to say a few words, but a few of the little fans at the door were moved to tears and shouted, "Ah, Susu treats her fans so well, she’s so indulgent to her fans..."

Then fans started sharing the incident on Weibo, and soon the fan groups there were flooded with comments about how indulgent Shi Su is to her fans, with flattery posts one after another.

Shi Su had just entered the hotel elevator and heard Chujian talking about it, which gave her a bit of a headache.

She’s just an actress.

Not an idol.

What an actress needs is good roles to play, good scripts to accept, acting skills, and a stable team.

Unexpectedly, in today’s age, even playing a secondary role well can attract so many fans, who are even crazier than idol fans.

Just as Shi Su got into the elevator, the doors were slowly closing, and suddenly they opened again as Wei Sinan returned from the side entrance. He saw her and smiled, "Which door did you enter through today?"

"The back door..." Shi Su replied with a knowing look.

Wei Sinan smiled again.

After all, he’s one of the current popular young stars. Even though not at the top, he still has quite a few fans, and there are always obsessive fans following his car and hotel, turning his hotel returns into some form of guerrilla warfare, which all those involved understand.

"The scenes in H City should be done by around three tomorrow afternoon. You’re heading back to Jiang City as well, right?" Wei Sinan asked.

"Yeah, New Year’s Day is the day after tomorrow, and the crew hasn’t mentioned a holiday, so I’ll finish filming this month’s scenes in Jiang City first."

"Tomorrow night is New Year’s Eve, and there’s a fireworks show in Jiang City. Do you want to go see it together?"

Shi Su looked at Wei Sinan for a moment.

Previously in Z City, Wei Sinan had shown kindness to her a few times, but she had clearly rejected him. After returning to Jiang City, since they were still in the same group, constantly meeting each other, they maintained just a colleague relationship. They would often chat when they saw each other, even though Wei Sinan didn’t talk much to other actresses, he talked more to her. However, Shi Su only considered him a friend and colleague, never thinking further.

But spending New Year’s Eve watching a fireworks show together would be far too intimate.

She chuckled, "Places where you can see the fireworks show will definitely have a lot of people. With our current popularity and buzz, if anyone catches us, are you prepared to start the New Year trending with me?"

Shi Su’s response was already a gentle half-joking refusal.

"Even trending depends on whom you’re trending with. If it was you, I’d be more than happy," Wei Sinan replied with an earnest smile.

Shi Su looked at him teasingly, "Those who have trended with me before haven’t had particularly good outcomes, like Shi Yunyin, Xia Yilin, Tong Yuanyuan, and Yi City. Aren’t you afraid?"

"They brought it upon themselves, but the situation between you and Mr. Yi is still quite enigmatic. Was he your ex-boyfriend?"

"...Sort of, we were familiar in our teens, then nearly five years without any contact," Shi Su admitted sincerely.

She generally doesn’t like discussing her matters, but since they are both in the entertainment industry, it’s not surprising for some to be curious about rumors, eventually someone would ask. Instead of letting people gossip secretly, it’s better to be open about it.

Moreover, she actually quite appreciates Wei Sinan as a person. She doesn’t engage in ambiguity with others but at least, from a friend’s perspective, she deals with it in a respectful and open-minded manner, chatting without needing to avoid much.

"Five years?" Wei Sinan raised his brows slightly.

Shi Yunyin and Yi City publicly went from being together to breaking off their engagement in about five years too.

Wei Sinan looked knowingly at Shi Su and switched back to the previous topic, "Want to go see the fireworks show together tomorrow night?"

The hotel’s floor wasn’t very high, and they had both exited the elevator. As they passed by Shi Su’s room door, he asked again.

Chujian, behind giving Shi Su the room card, she quickly turned to Wei Sinan, "No, if we really get caught and end up trending, my boyfriend might get jealous."

Wei Sinan paused.

She truly rejected him in such a gentle way without directly stating that she’d be with her boyfriend tomorrow night, instead saying her boyfriend would be jealous if they trended.

It was a way to save him some face while clearly cutting off any thoughts he had of pursuing further.

"You have a boyfriend?" Wei Sinan asked, feeling a bit helpless and disappointed, but his expression remained polite with a slight smile.

Until he received a confirming look from Shi Su, he nodded, "Alright, then goodnight."

Shi Su nodded in return and opened her door, while Wei Sinan didn’t linger, directly heading toward his room. Shi Su also entered her room.

Only after Wei Sinan had walked far enough did Chujian, prepared to enter with her, whisper, "Wei Sinan is really quite handsome, you know. His reputation is good in the industry, family background and character are decent too, but still not quite a match for Mr. Jing. In this industry, there really aren’t many as disciplined as you, Shi Su. There are so many who secretly juggle two or more relationships. If I were you, I wouldn’t be able to reject so outright..."

Shi Su had just stepped inside when her gaze suddenly fell toward the bed and her steps paused as she looked back at Chujian intending to follow her in, "You don’t need to stay with me to go over the script tonight. Rest early."

"Ah?" Chujian froze outside the door, not expecting an early off: "Alright, I’ll head back to sleep. You rest early too, Shi Su."

Shi Su gave her a look to hurry home and then entered the room, gently closing the door.

She tiptoed toward the bed, unable to hide the joy on her face, staring at the deeply sleeping little friend, Mianmian, who appeared like he had fallen from the sky, lying on her bed.
