Chapter 140: Nonsense!
Upon seeing the commotion, Huo Ci subconsciously turned around to run. However, he could not expose his identity and make others laugh at him. He pretended to be calm and took a step back, allowing Ling Sheng to stand in front of him. “What happened?”
They were so fierce!
It was as though they were there to declare war against him.
He could not remember who he had met or offended.
“Father, are you scared?” Sheng Sheng blinked her eyes at him and smiled unkindly. “No one will hit you. Look at the baskets and bags they’re carrying. If they were here to hit you, they’d have brought shovels and rakes.”
How many evil deeds had he done that made him want to run immediately when he saw someone rush over?
“Nonsense.” Huo Ci gritted his teeth and tried to explain himself. “What would I be afraid of? Why should I be afraid?”
That brat was speaking the truth!
Ling Sheng did not argue with him. It was not easy to coax him, so she blocked the approaching villagers. “Uncles and aunties, what are you doing?”
“We’re looking for Huo Ci. We’re here to see him.” The leading man picked up the bag in his hand. There were living creatures moving inside. “This is an old hen I just caught. It’s three years old. It’s an authentic hen. It’s meant to nourish your body.”
Huo Ci was stunned. Then, he smiled gently. “Thank you, Big Brother. Do you know me?”
The villagers nodded, saying that they were all his fans. They liked him a lot and had watched his dramas and movies growing up.
Instantly, everyone surrounded Ling Sheng and pushed her away.
Upon hearing the commotion, Cheng Ye and the others followed suit.
The villagers surrounded Movie King Huo warmly, as though the leaders were welcoming him. One by one, they shook hands and talked to him.
Although the situation looked chaotic, it was quite orderly. It was neither crowded nor noisy.
Movie King Huo’s smile was as gentle as jade and as warm as the spring breeze. His voice was as magnetic and rich as a jade plate. These words were not enough to describe his current elegance.
Shi Lingyu’s eyes sparkled as she held her chest, her heart racing in admiration. Her husband was really handsome and gentle!
Today, she was praising her god’s beauty and elegance!
Su Yi looked at the man opposite her. A man was in his prime at forty. It would be perfect to describe him as Best Actor. Every single action of his conveyed the charm of a mature man.
No wonder he was loved by women of all ages and made his fans call him husband every day to the point of dreaming of marrying him.
This man was simply too charismatic.
Huo Ci was taking photos with the others, signing autographs, and chatting casually with them. He did not put on the air of a celebrity. Some of these uncles and aunties were old and did not know how to use their phones. He even took out his camera considerately and took photos with them.
The fans who had come over were all uncles and aunties between 30 and 50 years old. They had all seen his characters grow older and older, so they naturally liked him a lot. Never had they expected that the celebrity they liked would come to their village.
Upon hearing the news, they helped it spread like wildfire. They took all the presentable items they had at home and ran over to see him.
Huo Ci’s title as an unaging male god was well-deserved. In this group of people, who were his age or slightly older, he was like a young celebrity. They appeared to be from two different generations.
Poor Ling Sheng received a gift from her fans on the side. The uncles and aunties were simple and warm. If she did not accept the gift, they would be anxious. She had to accept it. They said it was stuff from home but nothing valuable. They just wanted Huo Ci to try it.
