Chapter 462 Young people are always full of worries
"Brother Lu, I've liked you for ten years! I really... really... really love all your works."

"You're Xia Fei? I remember you, you were only in junior high back then, and now... you're almost graduating from university, right?"

What's it like to be remembered by a top artist with tens of millions of fans? Actually, he didn't feel anything. After all, Xia Fei was so nervous that his brain went blank. Meeting his idol up close had already made him stutter and unable to speak properly. Then the idol greeted him, which caused Xia Fei, whose brain capacity was already insufficient, to instantly crash.

"This year...this year...this year I'm doing my internship."

Lu Ze remembered him. In fact, he remembered most of the fans present, since they were all old fans. Back when Lu Ze wasn't so famous, he had anonymously joined the fan group, but it didn't end well. He was kicked out because he was busy with work and had been lurking for a long time.

Let's not dwell on that. Just to say, Xia Fei was one of the few fans who left a deep impression on him. After all, he took his girlfriend to see a depressing movie like "To Live" and was caught by his parents at the movie theater entrance. Although the ending, in which his parents agreed, was very happy, Lu Ze still thought he was ridiculous.

Judging from Xia Fei's current demeanor, which seemed to have suffered a great blow, Lu Ze guessed that he had broken up with his girlfriend, or perhaps something had happened to his parents. There was no need to be too accurate in guessing these things, so it was best to avoid discussing any of the reasons he had guessed. He didn't want to talk about his girlfriend or his family, but just wanted to have a good chat about life.

Have you found a job yet?

"not yet."

"Emm... It's a bit tough for young people to find jobs these days. Don't worry, but you still have to try. Don't be too laid-back. Adapt to work and life. Good luck."

After the group photo was over, he was foolishly put his arm around Lu Ze's shoulder and posed for a friendly photo. At just over 1.7 meters tall, he was more than half a head shorter than Lu Ze. If Lu Ze hadn't bent down slightly, their faces would have been hard to align.

Without even guessing, he knew he must have looked incredibly foolish. His limbs and expression were as stiff as a puppet's, and he couldn't even manage a smile. Compared to the other fans he had seen before, he was utterly pathetic.

Xia Fei is filled with regret now, deep regret. Even though he is certain that his future life will no longer have much interaction with Lu Ze, he still feels unwilling and wants to cry.

This was clearly the first time in her life that she had seen Lu Ze in person, and it would likely be the last time. Unfortunately, she was completely dumbfounded and couldn't even manage a smile. She was doomed.

After taking the photos, he left to collect his small gift, but before he had taken two steps, someone tapped him on the shoulder.

"Xia Fei?"

"Ok?"

"If you don't mind, can I have a hug?"

Xia Fei turned his head and looked at Lu Ze in surprise. The man in front of him had a warm smile, as if to drive away the coldness in his heart. When Lu Ze waved, he slowly walked over and gave Lu Ze a polite hug. Instantly, Xia Fei's nose felt a little sore. Even though he wanted to find a reason to prove it, it was the incredibly good-smelling woody perfume on Lu Ze that overwhelmed his sense of smell.

"Go home and get a good night's sleep, kid."

"Brother Lu...can I still support you?"

He asked himself a question, without thinking, and blurted it out. His departing girlfriend and the increasing pressure of life were gradually eroding his enthusiasm for following celebrities.

Although Lu Ze didn't need Xia Fei to spend a fortune to prove her love for him, he still wanted to buy a movie ticket and watch a movie that wouldn't disappoint him. But since they had always gone to the movies together, it was inevitable that he would be moved by the sight of the movie alone. He wanted an answer that wouldn't come from his own mouth, to entrust his thoughts to the person he admired, and to let the spiritual pillar he had been so passionate about for ten years decide.

The man before him didn't offer any guarantees of support for his foolproof approach to fandom. Avoiding emotional manipulation and brainwashing his fans has always been Lu Ze's principle. Whether fans continue to like him must come from their own hearts, which is why these long-time fans haven't switched allegiances. All he can do is avoid disappointing those who love his work. Hardworking, diligent, kind, and handsome—while he possesses all these qualities, they will never be labels attached to Lu Ze, nor will they become excuses used by fans to defend him. The only true label attached to Lu Ze, and an indestructible persona, is this one.

Strong, super strong, the ultimate invincible bloodline is strong.

So, seeing Xia Fei's anxious eyes, he gently gave his answer, his warm smile soothing Xia Fei's heart.

"If life is kind to you, then yes."

……

The staff handing out the small gifts were quite surprised. A boy actually came to receive a gift crying. Crying is one thing, it's not unusual to cry when you see your idol, but why are you crying even more miserably than those girls who are too excited to speak? Judging from the boy's tone, body language and temperament, he doesn't seem like the kind of boy with a feminine air. What's wrong with him?
The staff couldn't understand it, and neither could anyone else. They just watched Xia Fei leave with a small, exquisite black bag. Xia Fei became the most memorable person at the premiere of "Exile," after Lu Ze had remembered him as a fan for seven years.

"Hmm...you still need to carry more than two hundred."

Mickey teased him from the side, and Lu Ze really didn't want to pay attention to him, but what he said was true. It was one thing to take a picture with those he had taken a picture with, but those he hadn't were all staring longingly. Why did he hug Xia Fei but not him? In order not to be treated differently, he could only play the scumbag who everyone threw themselves at today.

The key point is that there are men in it...

No, that's not right. Hugging men is fine, but hugging girls means you have to be careful not to get groped. There are so many media people here. If this gets out, his chastity will be ruined. So, he can only take advantage of his long arms and keep a person between him when he hugs the girls, making the girls shout that he's being unfair.

However, Lu Ze was happy. At least he could comfort a child who was burdened with worries, and the price was only two hundred hugs. No matter how many times he did this deal, he felt it was worth it.

"One shot in a minute? The weather's pretty good today, I feel like I'm channeling Tiger Woods." (Timber Woods: famous golfer)

"No, I'm taking my master and mistress home later. I also need to see my two nieces and treat them to a meal. They've been studying in the capital for almost half a year, and I haven't seen them yet."

"Niece? How old is she?"

"If you don't want to be pushed and dragged under the road when you want to cross it, then keep asking."

"Hahahaha... No, I was just asking... If your two nieces are young, I'd like to freeload a meal... Hehehe, really not?"

"Get lost, I won't hit you. It's just a little fun."

Hanging on a pole? Only someone with brain damage like Lu Ze would play with him. When it comes to playing games, no matter what it is, Mickey has an amazing talent, a fact that both Lu Ze and the Mendeleev brothers clearly recognize.

After seeing all the guests off, Mickey and his companions no longer needed Lu Ze to arrange accommodations. Mickey and the owner of the golf club hit it off immediately, wanting to grab some peanuts and start drinking right there, and refused to let them leave. Lu Ze had no choice but to give up and help his master and mistress leave.

I still owe twenty-nine chapters. The air conditioning is making me sneeze. I want to keep writing, but I'll see if I can finish it. I won't wait any longer tonight.
