The tall woman was called Tang Xin. She counted as a second-tier celebrity, though she had recently taken on a web drama. Tang Xin even had a premonition that she would likely gain some small fame. And indeed, recently there had been many people harassing her. Those people were simply too crazy. Having muddled through the entertainment industry for several years, Tang Xin had also encountered such sasaeng fans and stalkers. However, this was the first time she had encountered a stalker with such a stupid brain and so little effort put in. In such cold weather, wearing a shirt, he had actually followed her to the hotel. He looked delicate and pretty, even somewhat handsome. How could his heart be so filthy.
Luo Chen completely did not understand what the other party was saying. He frowned and looked at Tang Xin. Could this woman be a lunatic? “What are you looking at?” “Do not think that this kind of behaviour will move an idol. You will only disgust me.” “And I tell you, you had better leave immediately. Otherwise, I will call the police in a moment.” Tang Xin scolded while showing a proud expression. Seeing Luo Chen unmoved, Tang Xin raised her brows and spoke again. “Do you want an autograph or a photo together?” “If your attitude is a bit better, I am not unable to consider it. But this kind of behaviour of stalking your own idol is indeed frightening!”
Luo Chen finally understood this woman’s words now. She actually thought he was stalking her. “Celebrity?” Luo Chen raised his brows and spoke. “Hmph, still pretending. In the whole of Bocheng, even the whole of Bozhou, who does not know me, Tang Xin?” Tang Xin spoke proudly. Although she was a second-tier celebrity, she also had a certain number of fans and popularity. This time, if not for special circumstances, she would not have returned to Bocheng alone like this. “Tang Xin?” Luo Chen was somewhat surprised. It was not because Luo Chen knew her, but because he did not know her. “Never heard of her.” Luo Chen shook his head.
These words instantly caused Tang Xin’s brows to shoot up vertically. She felt a sense of being insulted. In Bocheng, who dared to say they did not know her? From eighty-year-old grandpas down to five-year-old children, who did not know her? “Do not think that by speaking like this, you can mislead me and wash away the stalking…” “Miss.” Luo Chen interrupted Tang Xin’s words. “I am here to stay at the hotel. Also, I really do not know you.” Luo Chen waved his hand. The elevator had already arrived. Luo Chen walked out first. Room 1708 was his room number. But coincidentally, Tang Xin’s room number was 1709. This made it look as if Luo Chen was heading toward Tang Xin’s room.
“You still dare to pretend?” “Even where I live, you know. What exactly do you want to do?” Tang Xin saw Luo Chen walking in the direction of that room of hers. “If you do not leave, I will call the police!” Tang Xin threatened. This caused Luo Chen’s footsteps to pause. But Tang Xin had already quietly dialled the front desk’s number. Very quickly, a large group of security guards and attendants all rushed up. “It is him, it is him. He followed me, followed me the whole way.” Tang Xin pointed at Luo Chen and shouted. Several security guards were about to make a move. But then an attendant recognised Luo Chen. They knew Tang Xin, after all she was a celebrity and often came here. But the attendant also remembered that Luo Chen was truly here to stay at the hotel.
“Take him to the police station for me. This kind of sasaeng fan is simply too terrifying.” Tang Xin was still shouting. Her eyes carried a trace of smugness. Toward this kind of sasaeng fan, whether or not he was her fan, he must be severely punished. Otherwise, her life would be completely ruined in the future. But the attendant finally reacted. He stopped those few security guards. Then he explained. “Sister Xin, he really is here to stay at the hotel.” The attendant spoke somewhat embarrassedly. Luo Chen had watched the commotion for half a day and also found it boring now. He directly walked toward room 1708. Then he took out his room card, opened the door, did not even glance at Tang Xin, and directly walked in.
This instantly stunned Tang Xin. Then Tang Xin somewhat embarrassedly asked the attendant. “He really is here to stay at the hotel?” The attendant nodded. “Miss, your fame might really not have reached the level where I would know you.” Suddenly, Luo Chen’s head stretched out from room 1708. Then he said this sentence. Finally, with a bang, he directly closed the door.
This remark was like a perfect finishing blow. It directly caused Tang Xin’s face to instantly turn red. He really was here to stay at the hotel? Everything was her own misunderstanding? This was not merely a bit awkward, but rather somewhat humiliating. And the other party actually said he did not know her. This was making her lose face in front of so many people. This was a bit excessive. Tang Xin’s face turned alternately green and red as she walked toward her own room. Then she quickly fled inside. After entering, she grabbed the pillow on the bed and beat it wildly. Too infuriating, too humiliating. Her self-esteem at this moment seemed to be brutally trampled upon.
After calming down for a long time, Tang Xin finally sat on the bed huffing and puffing. She had returned this time precisely intending to rent out her family’s ancestral house. That ancestral house also had some years on it, though it had been renovated once. It was just in a village outside the city. Tang Xin normally rarely returned. Moreover, she had villas elsewhere. Selling it, after all that was the ancestral house. It held memories of her childhood. And if that area were to be redeveloped in the future, during demolition she could still get something. But with no one living there for a long time, it felt somewhat wrong, with no one to clean it. She could not possibly hire someone to go in and clean it, letting someone live inside while still paying them wages.
So Tang Xin decided to still rent out that ancestral house. However, that was after all in a village. Who would be willing to rent that house? After all, many people in the village were now moving to the city. Who would be willing to live in a village? There was not even WiFi. Living there was inconvenient. But Tang Xin still posted a thread online and listed that house. If truly no one was willing to rent it, she could only find someone to clean it regularly and pay them wages. Although she did not care about this bit of money, she would still feel somewhat uncomfortable in her heart.
And next door, Luo Chen opened the local forum and began browsing. He planned to go to the village to rent a house to live in for a while. Otherwise, every day he would have to rush to the village outside the city, running back and forth was troublesome. Only Luo Chen also knew that renting a house in the village was seemingly not that easy either. He could not possibly share a rental with someone else. He definitely wanted to directly rent an entire large house. But that kind of house was either occupied or already demolished.
On Tang Xin’s side, almost as soon as she had just posted it, unexpectedly the phone rang. “Hello, is your house for rent?” A voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “Yes, you have seen the price and such, right?” Tang Xin replied. “Seen it. Tomorrow, go look at the house.” The other party was sparing with words and hung up the phone.
