After breakfast, Fu Ciyan left for work early. As Lu Yao and Xie Linyu packed their things to go to the film set, Lu Yao suddenly remembered: "There's a medical examination involved in the procedures for the second matching. Let's take some time to get it done."

Upon hearing Lu Yao mention this, Xie Linyu's eyes lit up: "Okay, let's go to Gu Jingxiao's place. I also need to get a follow-up check-up."

Lu Yao nodded, having no objection; in fact, that was what she was thinking too: "Have you had any reactions these past few days?"

Ever since Xie Linyu told her that he had a reaction, Lu Yao had been wanting to ask. However, if she kept asking about this, it would make her seem like she cared a lot. She did care, but not in that way.

Lu Yao's heart skipped a beat. What was she struggling with?

Xie Linyu met Lu Yao's gaze and saw the concern in her eyes. His heart felt as if it had been gently tickled by a feather, both itchy and tender.

He leaned closer, his blue eyes fixed intently on her, his voice deliberately lowered, tinged with a seductive huskiness: "Yaoyao, how about you give me another little stimulation?"

Lu Yao's cheeks flushed instantly, and she glared at him reproachfully, "I think you're all better now, aren't you?"

"Not yet," Xie Linyu chuckled, his fingertips seemingly unintentionally brushing against the back of her hand, his smile deepening. "But the reaction every morning is stronger than usual, which is a good sign, isn't it?"

Lu Yao understood, and her eyes lit up with joy: "If we finish work early tomorrow, let's go to Dr. Gu's place together."

Seeing the undisguised joy in her eyes, Xie Linyu felt a pang of bitterness in his heart, because in this matter, he had indeed deceived Lu Yao.

"Okay," Xie Linyu replied, then cautiously asked, "Yaoyao, if someone lied to you, how would you treat that person?"

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Lu Yao blinked and looked at him. "You're not hiding something from me, are you?"

Xie Linyu's heart trembled slightly: "No, I was just asking casually."

Lu Yao stared at him for a while before looking away. As she walked out, she said, "Lying is never a good thing, but I'll first see why the other person is lying to me and what they want from me. There's always a reason for lying, but I don't like being lied to."

Xie Linyu followed behind Lu Yao, his steps pausing slightly.

Lu Yao's words, "I don't like being lied to," seemed light and casual, yet they were like a tiny thorn pricking his heart.

The hovercar smoothly drove towards the film and television base.

As soon as the car stopped, a lot of people came to the perimeter of the film crew, and many of them were holding up signs, most of which had Xie Linyu's name on them, and some simply had the words "Ling Mo" on them.

The crew members were maintaining order throughout the process.

Looking at this scene through the car window, Lu Yao asked in surprise, "What's going on? Is the film crew having an event today?"

Xie Linyu glanced at it and wasn't very surprised: "They're probably fans of 'Temptation of Wife' who came to visit the set. Don't worry, every production team has a contingency plan for this kind of thing."

He opened the car door and got out, and as soon as he appeared, the fans waiting outside screamed.

"Xie Linyu! Xie Linyu!"

"Ling Mo! Look here!"

"Honey! Ahhhhh!"

……

The screams instantly ignited the previously orderly scene, and the crowd surged forward excitedly. Security personnel quickly formed a human wall to maintain the last line of defense.

The flashes of light from the cameras and the camera flashes from the terminal were constant.

Xie Linyu already had a polite smile on his face. He waved to the fans and walked over to accept some handwritten letters prepared by the fans. He also signed autographs and took photos with them, engaging in a small interaction.

Lu Yao came down from the other side and looked at Xie Linyu.

Watching him interact with fans, Lu Yao finally realized that Xie Linyu was a popular celebrity.

The main reason is that the two of them have too much contact, which makes her overlook his celebrity status.

A smile welled up in her eyes. Not wanting to disrupt the pleasant atmosphere, Lu Yao turned to leave when suddenly a voice from the crowd exclaimed, "Ahhh, it's Teacher Lu Yao!"

"It's the original author, Ms. Lu Yao!"

"Teacher Lu Yao, look here! Mom, we love you!"

……

Lu Yao paused, looking in surprise in the direction of the sound.

At the edge of the crowd, several young girls were waving their arms excitedly at her, their faces filled with pure excitement and love. The one who was calling out "Mom" had a flushed face and her eyes were shining brightly. Clearly, she was projecting her love for the work "Temptation of the Wife" onto her, the creator.

This pure recognition and enthusiasm from the work itself warmed Lu Yao's heart, and her smile became more genuine.

She stopped and waved gently in the direction of the girls.

"Ahhh! Teacher Lu Yao responded to us!" The girls became even more excited.

The commotion here immediately attracted more attention.

Many fans and media outlets who were originally focused on Xie Linyu also turned their attention to this.

"Ms. Lu Yao! Could you say a few words? When will the second season of 'Temptation of a Wife' be released?" a reporter shouted.

"Ms. Lu Yao, how come you got out of the same car as Actor Xie? What is your relationship now?" another voice followed.

Xie Linyu finished signing autographs and immediately walked back to Lu Yao's side, carefully protecting her and making his protective attitude as obvious as possible.

"Thank you all for your love of 'Temptation of a Wife' and for Ms. Lu Yao." Xie Linyu took the initiative to answer the media's questions on her behalf. "Post-production for the second season has begun. Please pay attention to official announcements for the specific release date. As for personal questions..."

He paused, his smile unchanged, but his tone was distant. "Please give us some private space and focus more on our work. Thank you for your support. Please be careful, we have to go to work now."

After he finished speaking, he winked at Xiao Chen.

Then he left with Lu Yao.

The noise only subsided when we reached the film set.

"Were you startled?" Xie Linyu asked, somewhat worried that Lu Yao might be disturbed by the scene. "I didn't expect so many people to come today, including the media."

"No," Lu Yao smiled, "I was just a little surprised."

She felt a little embarrassed when she thought of those few times she called out "Mom".

Xie Linyu looked at her slightly flushed cheeks with gentle eyes: "As the popularity of 'Temptation of Wife' increases, there will be many more such things. Teacher Lu Yao will receive more praise in the future, so you should get used to it in advance."

"Then I'll take your kind words." Lu Yao smiled and agreed. For an author, it's the highest praise to have their work recognized by the public, and it's hard for Lu Yao not to be happy.

When they arrived at Xie Linyu's dressing room, they found that there were many gifts from fans, some for Xie Linyu and some for her.

For a moment, Lu Yao was genuinely moved.

"Ms. Lu Yao, you and Actor Xie are trending on social media!" The makeup artist greeted them with a smile as they entered.
