I really didn't intend to make a living based on my looks.

"I know those summers, like you, will never come back, and I will never again have expectations for anyone..."

Lin Yan sat in the audience, staring blankly at him.

I finally met him!

It wasn't a photo on her phone, nor a scene from a TV show; it was Jiang Chen himself, standing just a dozen meters away, even more handsome than she had imagined.

The person I've liked for over a year is singing right in front of me right now. My heart is pounding so hard it feels like it'll burst out of my chest, and my eyes are getting a little hot.

She took a deep breath and stood up abruptly.

The girls in the back row seemed to have been turned on, and they all stood up in a flash.

The banner was unfurled with a "whoosh".

Jiang Chen, fly bravely, Orange will always be with you!

The light boards lit up one after another, displaying "Jiang Chen" and "Chen Chen," and more than a dozen bright lights burned like small torches in the audience.

"Chenchen!!!"

"Jiang Chen, look here!!!"

"Orange will always support you!!!"

Jiang Chen looked up at the lights that had suddenly illuminated the area below the stage.

Banners, light boards, a group of girls standing neatly in rows, their eyes shining.

He froze for a moment.

To be honest, this is the first time in my life that I've ever seen someone hold up a sign with his name on it.

I used to see other celebrities' fan support activities, and I always felt that it was something very distant from them.

Now, those light signs with the words "Jiang Chen" written on them are shining brightly right in front of him.

Are these his fans?

It's a pretty strange feeling, but what the heck is an orange?

His fans are called Oranges?

? ? ? ? ?

He lowered his head, plucked the strings again, and continued singing.

The voice was more steady than before, as if it were responding to something.

On the other side of the stage, the main actors stood in a row.

Li Cheng felt a pang of jealousy watching this scene.

"Damn, I've been in the industry for so long and I still don't have any fans."

Zhang Yi remained expressionless, his lips twitching slightly: "Don't say anything, I didn't either."

Li Cheng turned to look at Yang Mi: "He only played a supporting role, right? 'Swords of Legends' hasn't even aired yet, and he already has fans coming to see it offline?"

Yang Mi held the ball, glanced at Jiang Chen, and said nothing.

Tong Liya spoke up, laughing and saying, "He's handsome, that's all. These days, young girls only care about looks."

Li Cheng: "..."

Heartbroken.

Yang Mi finally added insult to injury: "You two, stop being so sour and just accept your fate."

Chen Sicheng did not participate in their bickering.

He looked at Jiang Chen singing on the stage, lost in thought.

This kid has gained such popularity after playing only a supporting role. When "Swords of Legends" airs, he'll definitely gain a huge number of fans.

Moreover, he's quite loyal; when asked to sing the theme song, he came without hesitation.

He's handsome, just like he was when he was young...

How about we let him audition for the movie version of Beijing Love Story?

The press conference ended, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

The students crowded around the side exit, craning their necks to look towards the backstage area, clutching letters and gifts in their hands, but no one was in sight.

"Sister Yanzi, why isn't Chenchen coming out yet?"

"Wait a little longer, he might be giving an interview."

After waiting forty minutes, a staff member came out and said, "Everyone, the main actors have all left through another passage. Thank you for your support, please be careful on your way back."

"Huh? The letter hasn't been given yet..."

"Did we wait for nothing?"

Lin Yan suppressed her disappointment: "Never mind, maybe next time. At least I saw him in person today, so it was worth it."

The girls walked out dejectedly, comforting each other.

"He checked on us several times today."

"He's so handsome!"

"Exactly, those so-called 'Four Beauties of Tianya' online last time, can they compare to our Chenchen?"

Lin Yan walked at the back, looking down at the undelivered letter in her hand, sighed, and pushed open the revolving door of the restaurant.

A cold wind blew in, making her shrink her neck.

"Excuse me, everyone!"

A voice came from below the steps.

The girls all looked over.

Jiang Chen stood under the streetlight, his black coat fluttering slightly in the wind, carrying several plastic bags filled with snacks and drinks.

He was panting, as if he had just run a distance.

"My assistant hasn't started work yet, so I went to the supermarket next door and bought you guys some food," he said, walking up the steps and handing you the bag. "You must be starving!"

The entire room fell silent for a moment, then erupted.

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

"Jiang Chen!!!"

"It's the real Chenchen!!!"

"Chenchen, why are you so good to us? Are you an angel? Did you come down to earth to save us?"

Surrounded by the group of girls, Jiang Chen was a little overwhelmed and took a half step back with a smile: "No, no, it's just some snacks, it's not that serious..."

"As for it!"

Absolutely!

The girls chattered amongst themselves, some already taking out their phones to snap photos like crazy, while others were spinning around in circles with bags of snacks in their arms.

Some people were so excited that they cried loudly, their faces covered in tears and snot.

Jiang Chen handed one of the bags to Lin Yan, who was standing on the outside.

"Are you Yanzi?"

Lin Yan stood there, stunned, her throat tightening as if something was blocking it: "You...you...know me?"

"Of course," Jiang Chen's eyes curved into a beautiful smile, "You were the first to follow me on Weibo and even created a group chat, how could I not know?"

His gaze fell on the crumpled envelope in her hand: "For me?"

Lin Yan then realized what was happening and hurriedly handed over the letters: "This...this was written by my sisters, and there's also my own..."

Jiang Chen took it and stuffed it into his coat pocket: "I'll check it when I get back."

He took a step back and waved to everyone: "Thank you for coming today. It's cold, go home early and be careful."

He smiled, turned and walked down the steps, his figure disappearing around the corner where the streetlights couldn't reach.

The girls have gone crazy!

"Aaaaaah, I'm dead!!!"

"He's so sincere..."

"I'd die for him!"

Lin Yan didn't speak. A night wind blew by, carrying the chill of Yanjing's winter, but her heart felt like it was burning with fire.

Jiang Chen.

Your oranges will always be with you.

……

Nazhawo was on the sofa at home, playing "Anhe Bridge," a song that had just been released on QQ Music, on his phone.

"...I know those summers, like you, will never come back..."

Jiang Chen's voice flowed from the speaker, low and deep, as if someone was sitting across from her speaking slowly.

She hummed along for a couple of seconds, then stared blankly at the ceiling.

This man is not only handsome, but also talented!

I love it even more now...

Her phone suddenly vibrated, and she answered it.

"Guli, what are you doing?" came her sister's voice from the receiver.

"I'm at home, I was just listening to music."

"Are you listening to some songs?"

"It was sung by a senior from our school, and it was really good."

"Senior? You've got your eye on him?"

"Acha..." Naza drawled, "She's a big star, why would she even look at me?"

"That's good. By the way, has your contract been finalized?"

"Signed, signed. Tang Ren, a big company."

Nazha curled his legs up, his voice tinged with smugness, "Once the show airs, just wait and see your sister become a national sensation."

Gulinati chuckled, but her laughter was tinged with weariness.

Naza realized what he meant. "Acha, you're still flying? Shouldn't you be resting at this time?"

"Just landed, there's another flight tomorrow morning. Too lazy to go back, I'll just stay at the crew hotel for the night."

"How is Atam?"

"That's great, everything's fine at home, you don't need to worry, I'll take care of things."

As Naza listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, her nose suddenly felt a little sore.

Her father has a heart condition, which has worsened over the years.

She started modeling so early so that she could earn money to pay for her father's heart transplant surgery.

Her older sister is a flight attendant, five years older than her, and took on the responsibility of supporting the family at a young age.

Over the years, I have been actively applying to fly international routes, all in order to earn more money.

"Acha," Naza's voice lowered, but every word was earnest, "I've grown up. I've been accepted into the Beijing Film Academy and signed with Tang Ren. I'll take care of things from now on. You don't need to carry everything on your shoulders, don't tire yourself out so much."

"And don't worry about the money for Atam's surgery, I'll figure something out."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a soft laugh.

"Okay, so from now on, Guli will be in charge of our family?"

Naza paused for a moment, then smiled.

"Okay, I'll take it."

"Lady Guli now orders you to go to sleep immediately."

"Yes, sir, Acha."

……

Room 2001, Tower 1, China World Trade Center, No. 81 Jianguo Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing.

Sony Greater China Operations Headquarters.

Cui Zhendong, President of Greater China, stood by the window, when he heard a knock on the door behind him.

"Come in."

Music production director Chen Meiwei pushed open the door and entered, holding a document in her hand.

"Mr. Cui, there's something I need to report to you."

"explain."

"A newcomer has recently emerged; I think we should keep an eye on him."

"Who?"

"Jiang Chen".
