Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

Before the aromatherapy was finished, Lu Xiao received a call from Su Ren.

"Lu Xiao, are you fucking trying to die?!"

Hearing Su Ren's angry roar, Lu Xiao picked up the phone and put it aside. "What's wrong?"

"What else? You, a smoker, ended up in an aromatherapy shop?"

Smoking was just an excuse Lu Xiao made up to sneak out.

no--

How did you know?

"How the hell was I supposed to know? You were sitting in the aromatherapy shop looking like a pervert, and it all got posted online."

Lu Xiao frowned and immediately opened his phone to take a look.

As expected, the top trending topic was Lu Xiao, the lead singer of the band Raven Ashes, who was suspected of being on a date at an aromatherapy shop.

Seeing that Si Yuan's face was not revealed, Lu Xiao breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"The woman sitting across from you is Si Yuan, isn't she? Do you not want us to live, or do you want Si Yuan to die?"

"Your die-hard fans don't even spare us. If they knew you were pursuing Si Yuan, do you think they would tear Si Yuan apart?"

Lu Xiao glanced warily out the window. He had disguised himself well enough, but he hadn't expected to be photographed anyway.

Luckily they didn't get a picture of A-Yuan, otherwise...

Lu Xiao glanced at Si Yuan, who was diligently making aromatherapy, and felt annoyed, anxious, and wanting to curse.

"We just signed a contract with Huanyu Group. If they see this news..."

A phone number suddenly came in, and when Lu Xiao saw that it was Bo Yusen calling, his heart tightened.

Hold--

Su Ren was still rambling on on the other end of the phone when Lu Xiao hung up.

He bit his thumb in a panic and dialed Bo Yusen's number.

"Brother Yusen..."

"What's going on with this trending topic?"

Bo Yusen's cold and gloomy voice came through the phone, and the chill seemed to travel through Lu Xiao's body through the phone, making him break out in a cold sweat.

"I came to buy gifts for my fans, and someone took a picture of me and posted it online."

"Not a date?"

"Of course not... The person across from me is... the shop assistant who taught me how to make aromatherapy products."

The man on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, then hung up the phone without hesitation after saying "Solve it yourself."

Lu Xiao touched his forehead and found it was covered in sweat.

He didn't know if the person who took the photo had left, and he dared not approach Si Yuan again, fearing that she would be put in the spotlight because of him.

After Si Yuan finished making freesia-scented aromatherapy for Lu Xiao, she looked up and found that Lu Xiao was no longer there.

Her phone suddenly rang, and she glanced at it; it was a WeChat message from Lu Xiao.

【I'm sorry, A-Yuan, I had to leave urgently and didn't have time to say goodbye. I'll apologize next time we meet.】

Si Yuan: [I'm fine, it's just that your scented oil...]

Lu Xiao: [Please take this back for me first, I'll come back to you for it another day.]

Si Yuan felt that would be too much trouble, and she couldn't just decide on her own to help Lu Xiao deliver the scented oil to Gu Yinhe.

Si Yuan: [How about you give me an address, and I'll mail the scented candles to you?]

A while later, Lu Xiao replied, "Okay then, thank you."

Si Yuan: [No trouble at all.]

Meanwhile, the internet was in an uproar over Lu Xiao's scandal.

Lu Xiao's haters:

"No wonder he's a rock singer who came back from abroad; his singing is so-so, but he's really good at picking up girls."

"That face already screams playboy, and his fans still try to whitewash it by saying he's never had a girlfriend—who would believe that!"

"I don't have to worry about being overwhelmed by the fragrance on my date at an aromatherapy shop."

"That guy is so innocent. He's never been in a relationship, never slept with a woman, and is still a virgin at twenty-two. He's a rare breed that needs to be protected."

Lu Xiao's fans:

"Where did this barking dog come from? That's Xiaoxiao, no doubt, but does appearing at an aromatherapy shop mean it's on a date?"

"Our Xiaoxiao is indeed a rare find, unlike your brother, who's like a rotten cucumber."

"It's normal for some fans to be jealous and upset after Xiaoxiao just took on the endorsement of Huanyu Group. After all, their brother's songs are not as popular as Xiaoxiao's, he is not as handsome as Xiaoxiao, and he keeps imitating Xiaoxiao. It's disgusting."

Soon after, Lu Xiao posted a Weibo post.

The photo shows two boxes of aromatherapy products in various scents.

"Personally helping fans pick out gifts makes me a trending topic. Thank you everyone for the attention you've given me; I'll definitely make the most of it."

The other members of the band Raven Ashes also reposted Lu Xiao's Weibo post.

The fans of the band Raven are a very special group.

When there are no external enemies, the fans of the five members fight amongst themselves.

When there is an external enemy, we unite against them.

"A two-way journey between Xiaoxiao and his fans!!!"

"I'm so touched, sob sob..."

"Even as a bystander, I think Lu Xiao is being unfairly targeted."

"Get out of here, haters, and let's have a clean online environment."

"Thanks for the traffic, haters. I wish you and your brother never get any traffic again."

Seeing that the wind had turned, Lu Xiao was finally able to relax completely.

Su Ren's expression remained grim. "Ah Xiao, you saw it yourself. Your slightest movement has caused a massive online upheaval..."

"Yes, Xiao, it's fortunate that you reacted quickly this time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Lu Xiao was actually a little scared afterward.

"I understand... I'll be more careful next time..."

Seeing Lu Xiao's pale and ugly face, Su Ren patted him on the shoulder and said, "Think it over carefully. If you want to be in a relationship, you have to make sure your fans don't go crazy, and you also have to make sure Si Yuan's life and work are not affected."

Lu Xiao sank into the sofa, covering his face with his hat.

Hold--

Dating is so easy for other people.

Why is it so hard for him to pursue someone?

the other side.

Si Yuan left with the aromatherapy diffuser, and as she walked, she saw a restaurant where a birthday celebration was taking place.

Bo Yusen's birthday is coming soon.

August 8th...

Si Yuan suddenly remembered the day he was drugged by Xiang Mingche and given to Li Jiale, and the day he ran away and met Bo Yusen.

Isn't it August 8th?

It turned out that it was Bo Yusen's birthday that day.

Time flies! A year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Si Yuan knew that she had neither the right nor the standing to give a gift to Bo Yusen.

But I still couldn't resist wanting to give him a gift.

Just as she was walking near the mall, Si Yuan inexplicably went inside.

She wandered around inside for a long time before finally finding a tie clip that suited Bo Yusen.

It's not very expensive, so it won't arouse suspicion.

But it's not cheap either; a gift that's too cheap wouldn't be worthy of him.

August 8th happened to be a Saturday.

Si Yuan received a phone call from Si Aofu early in the morning.

During this period, the two kept in frequent contact, and their relationship improved significantly.

Si Aofu: "Ah Yuan, it's a rare Saturday, so I bought glutinous rice and black sesame seeds to make glutinous rice cakes myself. I also bought a black-boned chicken and an Australian lobster. Would you like to come and try my cooking?"

This was the first time Si Aofu had invited Si Yuan to her home, and Si Yuan was naturally overjoyed.

It just so happens that she also wants to give the scented candles she made to her sister.

"Okay, but I have something to do this morning, can I go in the afternoon?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you..."

"Uh-huh……"

After hanging up the phone, Si Yuan was overjoyed.

She changed into a beautiful dress, dressed up specially, and then went out.

She went to the place she had arranged to meet Gu Yinhe first.

Half a minute later, Gu Yinhe arrived late in his sports car.

"Sorry, A-Yuan, there was a traffic jam on the way. Have you been waiting long?"

"No, I just arrived too."

Si Yuan had two gift boxes in her hands. She handed the gift box on her left to Gu Yinhe, saying, "Thank you for your help."

Gu Yinhe was speechless. "Anyway, it's Saturday, and you don't have anything to do. Why don't you come with me to celebrate Yusen's birthday and give him the gift yourself?"

Si Yuan knew that Gu Yinhe would definitely go to celebrate Bo Yusen's birthday, so she asked her to bring Bo Yusen a gift.

only--

"Galaxy, don't let anyone know that this gift is from me. Just say it's from you."

Gu Yinhe: "Should I give two gifts?"

Si Yuan smiled and said, "Your relationship is quite special, so giving two gifts is nothing."

"Okay, okay...giving two gifts is fine, but why did you do that?"

Gu Yinhe curled her lip. "So many people are trying to curry favor with Brother Yusen, and they don't even have the chance to give him gifts. But you're doing this, not letting him know what gift you're giving him?"

Si Yuan smiled and said, "My relationship with President Bo is just so-so. I gave him this gift only because he helped us last time. Besides, I don't want him to know that I'm trying to curry favor with him. After all, my reputation isn't very good... It wouldn't be good if people thought I had ulterior motives."

Gu Yinhe poked Si Yuan's cheek. "You, you just overthink things. Aren't you tired of that?"

Si Yuan hugged Gu Yinhe, "I'm not tired, it's the little princess who worked hard carrying my gifts... I'll treat you to dinner another day..."

Gu Yinhe asked again, "Are you really not going? You're my good friend. Even if you want to curry favor with Brother Yusen, he won't say anything."

"I really'm not going..."

Si Yuan didn't want Bo Yusen to have an unhappy birthday.

Si Yuan held the gift box in her right hand up to her eyes. "Besides, I still need to go find my sister!"

"Sigh... alright then... I'm off..."

Si Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, have fun."

"The same to you……"

The two exchanged a smile, and Gu Yinhe started the car and drove away.

Si Yuan hailed a taxi and went in the opposite direction.

Bo Yusen's birthday celebration this year was organized entirely by Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.

It's located in a private restaurant with an elegant and quiet environment.

Although it's called a restaurant, it has all kinds of entertainment facilities and offers a panoramic view of the entire capital city, making its location extremely advantageous.

Many people wanted to come and celebrate Bo Yusen's birthday, and Jiang Zhe, wanting to create a lively atmosphere, did not limit the number of people.

But without Bo Yusen's permission, no one could get close to him.

As soon as Gu Yinhe arrived at the restaurant entrance, he had a close encounter with a black Cayenne.

"Bang—"

The two cars collided, making quite a loud noise.

Gu Yinhe got out of the car, about to go over and see how the other person was, when she saw that the person who got out of the car was Yu Muchen, her little face instantly turned cold.

"It's you again!"

Yu Muchen crossed his arms, raised an eyebrow at the fuming girl, and said, "Look closely, little princess, you're the one who rear-ended me!"

"Who gave you permission to call me little princess?!"

Gu Yinhe was furious.

In fact, Gu Yinhe did not have much malice towards Yu Muchen at first.

It's just a bit strange that Yu Sen and Zhe would date an illegitimate child.

The feud between the two occurred on the day she took Si Yuan and Shen Xingzhu to select male models, which was seen by Jiang Zhe.

To keep Jiang Zhe's secret, Gu Yinhe agreed to let Jiang Zhe take the man in the private room home.

When Gu Yinhe entered the private room, she was surprised to find that the drunk person was Yu Muchen.

She kindly helped the man up, intending to take him home, but unexpectedly, he suddenly pounced on her on the sofa and stole her first kiss.
