Everyone gathered at the restaurant that Jingsheng booked.

It was almost 12 0’clock, and the restaurants with better environments had already closed for the night.

The rest of the restaurants were lively places like food stalls, providing people with supper.

Jingsheng found a hotpot restaurant that was open all night.

Fortunately, although the environment in this shop was lively, there were still private rooms, which were suitable for their group.

Otherwise, it would be very easy to be recognized if they sat in the hall outside.

Even at this time, the hotpot restaurant was still very lively.

As soon as they entered the shop, they were surrounded by the steam coming out of the pots.

The guests in the lobby were eating and drinking. It was exceptionally lively. Because there were so many people, everyone was chatting, and the scene was a little noisy.

In order to for one to be heard, they could only raise their voice a little.

As a result, everyone’s voices became louder and louder, and the hall became more and more lively.

Everyone was wearing hats and masks.

However, there were still some sharp-eyed customers who recognized them.

However, they did not go up to call them.

There were only a few people who were brave enough to stop them. Most of them were embarrassed and afraid of disturbing Jingsheng and the others.

Therefore, the most they could do were secretly take a photo with their phone, take a video, or take a selfie with Jingsheng and the others in the range of the camera to take a small group photo.

When Jiang Xun saw this, she directly waved at the guests who were taking photos of them.

The customers who were filming immediately screamed.

“That must be Jiang Xun!” “I didn’t expect Jiang Xun to have such a good personality!”

“I want to post on Weibo!”

“Let’s wait until they leave. Otherwise, if you post it now, it will probably attract a lot of fans and even paparazzi. It would not be good if it caused trouble for them,” someone reminded.

“Yes, yes, you’re right. Thanks for reminding me.”

Jiang Xun and the others didn’t mind the guests taking photos and entered the room that was reserved.

Everyone was in the room. There was no one else around, so they talked freely.

“I thought you would have Xiang Luqi as your mystery guest today,” Shuidong said to Jingsheng.

Jingsheng was obviously very surprised and was stunned for a moment. “Why would you say that? I never said or hinted that Xiang Luqi would come.

Although she contacted me before and wanted to be a guest, I rejected her.”

In fact, Luqi had been unwilling to give up and had contacted him in various ways.

It really annoyed him.

Jingsheng had originally rejected her politely, but Luqi was really annoying. Jingsheng finally couldn’t take it anymore and rejected her very straightforwardly.

She finally stopped pestering him.

Jingsheng thought that this matter would be over, but he didn’t expect to hear such a statement from Shuidong.

Since Shuidong said so, it was definitely not without reason.

Shuidong explained, “When we were waiting for the show to start, weren’t there audiences sitting behind us? Listening to their conversation, it seemed like a big fan of Xiang Luqi’s family was very certain that she would appear at the concert as a mystery guest and sing ‘Mine’ with you.”

Mingxia smiled and secretly observed Qiyao.

Qiyao, this silly girl, thought that no one knew what she was thinking.

However, they had both participated in ‘Our Day’ together and had a good relationship with each other. Even after the show ended, they still kept in touch.

Qiyao and Jingsheng’s interactions became more and more familiar and natural. The sparks between the two were quite obvious.

In addition, after seeing Qiyao’s expression when she heard the audience’s conversation, Mingxia and Shuidong both could make a judgement.

Qiyao, this child, always showed everything on the surface and couldn’t hide it at all.

The key was that Qiyao’s acting skills were also quite good. She acted very well in movies, but why did she not know how to act at all when it came to herself?

However, Mingxia and Shuidong liked Qiyao’s personality.

It was better than being able to hide everything.

As expected, Mingxia saw Qiyao looking at Jingsheng a bit nervously.

Jiang Xun also added, “I also went to see Xiang Luqi’s Weibo. She did hint that there would be a performance today. We also heard from the audience that she didn’t have any work recently, so the audience guessed that she might be coming to your concert as a mystery guest. The netizens also speculated that because you had never let anyone else sing ‘Mine,’ singing it together with Xiang Luqi might be a confession.”

Jingsheng: ‘

“Nothing like that ever happened. You guys are making it sound like I actually did it.” Jingsheng’s face was filled with helplessness.

Jingsheng hadn’t been in the industry for long, so he knew what Luqi was up to.

He had never said anything or hinted at anything. It was all the netizens’ own speculations.

Even if it was verified by a big fan, it was not personally verified by her. It could be said that the fan had guessed wrongly.

It was a classic act of hyping things up.

However, in this situation, Jingsheng couldn’t say anything to Luqi, because Luqi had never said that she would attend Jingsheng’s concert.

If he really wanted to find Luqi to pursue the matter, Luqi would just say that it was a misunderstanding.

“Yeah, after watching the concert, we also know that it was Xiang Luqi’s one-sided act of hyping up the popularity. However, it is indeed quite annoying to be stuck to such a person,” Jiang Xun said with a smile.

Mingxia understood what Jiang Xun meant and said, “In my opinion, the most effective and straightforward way to put an end to this kind of shameless behavior of others is to have a girlfriend and cut off people’s opportunity to generate hype from this aspect. Just like my Old Zhang, if anyone dares to do this, I have a very legitimate reason to directly scold them on Weibo. Does the other party still want to stay in the industry? Do they want their reputation? Even if they are shameless in private, they still have some face on the surface.”

“So, you should hurry up,” Shuidong said. “Besides, you’re a singer. I heard from the audience that your fans are very rational and don’t mind you dating.”

Jingsheng nodded. “I’m not worried about that. I’m just a little worried that if my future girlfriend gets criticized, even if it’s just a small number of people, I’ll feel bad.’

“Then why don’t you ask for her opinion?”Jiang Xun suddenly said, “Ask your future girlfriend if she would mind or can accept this.”

“To be honest, we’re all public figures in the entertainment industry. From the moment we enter the industry, we have to be prepared to be judged. Whether it’s being criticized by other people’s fans, opponents’ fans, antis, passers-by netizens, or our own fans. This is something that we should be prepared to endure..”
