The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 71 The World's Number One Paparazzo
I had only thought that a lot of celebrities lived in the nearby neighborhoods, but I never expected this!
Thinking of this, the paparazzi quickly shared his guess in a group chat called "The World's Number One Paparazzo".

[You're really sharp! How come you didn't think of that before?]

A group of people busied themselves searching their network of contacts, and by 8 o'clock they had finally found out the truth.

Lu Nanting's house is on the nineteenth floor of Building 4, Bihu Tiandi.

And that actress, Ms. Gu, actually lives downstairs from him!!!

God!
Bihu Tiandi is a well-known luxury apartment complex, inhabited by the wealthy and powerful; this information is not easy to obtain.

Upon realizing this, all eight members of the team were fired up!
Although this dilapidated building has one floor per unit and an elevator leading directly to each unit, offering relatively high privacy, it is still a high-rise residential building, and residents living upstairs and downstairs may interact.

[Didn't the young master marry his first love? Following the logic of someone blinded by love, is it possible he deliberately bought the apartment above hers?]

[Hiss—Old Lu! Could it be that sharing the same surname allows them to sense the young master's thoughts? It's not impossible! Look, they bought their houses around the same time.]

Wow, they even managed to find that out.

Hehe, isn't this a perfect match for my major?

[They've kept it well hidden! The internet has been digging them up like crazy, but they haven't found anything.]

Otherwise, why would this material be so valuable?

[Damn! The entertainment company has already raised 7.5 million! We just missed the good times; in the era of print media, it would be tens of millions in no time.]

【Why! 】

[Stop joking around, okay? Let's get down to business! Tell me, Gu Lanxi left home a little after five o'clock, where is she going?]

The paparazzi stayed up all night, and finally had a flash of inspiration, but his brain cells were about to give out. He couldn't figure out where she would go no matter how hard he tried.

Seeing that his companions had started chatting, he couldn't help but feel anxious!
If they react in time, they might still be able to catch up. If they had been any later, she would have left in a car and could have gone in any direction. In that case, they wouldn't have been able to check the road surveillance footage to find out where she went.

That's illegal.

[For an actor, leaving home at 5:30 is nothing special, okay? Those filming period dramas have to go to the set at this time every day for makeup and styling.]

Who stays at home when filming a period drama? To get a little more sleep, they'd probably rather sleep next door to the crew.

Seeing that the topic was getting back on track, a paparazzi who had followed Gu Lanxi couldn't help but remind everyone:

Gu Lanxi's new drama starts filming this weekend, so she should be on vacation right now. If she's out at this time, she's probably picking someone up from the airport or train station. As you know, although she runs a venture capital studio, she rarely goes to the office.

"Oh no, now that you mention it, my heart is sinking. Who goes straight to filming after getting married? And for months at a time? That's impossible!"

[Speaking of which, the young master's schedule is also very tight. He hasn't been able to go out these past few days, and I wonder how much he's lost. The penalty for breach of contract alone would be enough for him to pay. If you ask me, it's better to stick close to the main character. He'll eventually come out to work. If you follow him, sooner or later you'll see the couple on a date, suspecting this one one minute and that one the next. How much manpower and resources will be wasted?]

In the past few days, besides Gu Lanxi, they have suspected countless others.

But what did all that running around with those female celebrities amount to in the end?
They were just trying to gain traffic by exploiting them. They completely backfired.

The paparazzi in the greenbelt, trusting their instincts, asked their companions for help.

[If you live near a high-speed rail station or airport, go take a look! What if you catch them together? Even if you don't, it's still worth taking some beautiful photos of Gu Lanxi without makeup. At the very least, just wait there for a while; a celebrity will inevitably pass by, and you might just stumble upon some gossip!]

But the paparazzi who had followed Gu Lanxi for over a year had long been driven to despair by this woman and kept backing out.

[This person doesn't like wearing makeup in private and dresses simply. She can blend into a crowd wearing a mask, and no one would recognize her. You all know what's going on with other female celebrities' candid photos, but this one is a genuine candid shot. Even at this hour, finding her at a place like the Capital Airport isn't easy. After all, she's not on a flight, but picking someone up, and you don't know who she's picking up or which flight they're on. The high-speed rail station is even worse; the daily passenger flow is always huge.]

Fearing they would start arguing, the eldest finally spoke up:

Which car did she drive today? Watching people is hard, but watching cars is always easier.

Most celebrities drive luxury cars.

Among a bunch of BYD and Volkswagen cars, luxury cars are relatively easy to recognize.

However, the person in the green belt didn't remember at all.

[Come on! That's Gu Lanxi! I've been staking out the greenbelt all night, and it's already pretty impressive that I recognized her at this hour! To be honest, I was so focused on looking at her that I didn't even notice what kind of car she was driving.]

I understand, this girl is really beautiful! Her face is natural, her figure is great, and most importantly, she has a vibrant energy that no one else seems to have.

[Have you all received the news? The bigwig from the Lu family has said not to waste public resources on his family's private affairs. The official media and other elites have all kept a tight rein on him, protecting him so well. How could he possibly be running around carelessly at a time like this? If he gets cornered, those extreme fans won't care if he's broken the law; if they start a mob, they might tear him apart!]

[It's not that fierce. In a society governed by the rule of law, even someone who is ignorant of the law should know basic common sense, right?]

Okay, let's take a break and stop discussing her. Look at the financial news; she was pushing forward with the Su Cha share transaction last week. She wouldn't have time for marriage. Besides, someone photographed her going for a medical checkup on Saturday. That was right when the trending topics were all over the place. If she were Lu Nanting's wife, she wouldn't even be able to leave the house without wearing armor!

"Sigh, to be honest, I was almost ready to give up. Think about it, the couple has known each other for years, their families must know the woman. Mrs. Lu even gave us a red envelope last week, she's clearly very satisfied with this daughter-in-law. Since they have a good relationship, they must often go out for tea and meals together. There are so many staff members in those restaurants and teahouses, yet not a single one has come forward to expose them. They registered their marriage at the Civil Affairs Bureau, there are countless people who know about it, but still no one has spoken out. Think about it carefully, how much effort has the Lu family put into protecting this daughter-in-law?"

If they were to be exposed, the Lu family would surely hate them to death.

Laymen often think that paparazzi have a free job, but they don't know that most of them are backed by capital, which is why they can get many resources that ordinary people cannot.

They really wouldn't dare to offend Lu Weidong to the point of death.

[Alright, alright, let's just grab some breakfast and keep our eyes peeled! Three cars have already left this morning, which means our young master is heading out. Quickly check his schedule and see what's on his agenda for today!]

The paparazzi were extremely excited, while Lu Nanting waited alone in the car, feeling very nervous.

It was his first time meeting Gu Lanxi's elders, yet they waited arrogantly in the car. He was afraid that the aunt would have a bad impression of him.

I hope everything goes well today!
