“Really? Hehe, I like Ruan Yang too.” Changqing was a little shocked by this little child. He really was the die-hard fan at the ashes level. Tsk tsk. Ruan Yang was too formidable. She had already started to poison him when he was only twelve.

 “Sister Yan, can you tell me more about Ruan Yang from when you guys were in university? For example, what she likes, what she hates. She said she loves durians and hates chives,” Li Xiaoxia said in distress, “but most of the things celebrities say aren’t true.”

 “No, what Ruan Yang said was true. She really hates chives. She hates the smell.” Changqing said with a smile, “In the past, when we were all staying in the same dormitory, we would always eat chives every day to make her uncomfortable.”

 “You guys are too much, haha.”

 These two were having a whale of a time and Li Shaobin coughed unhappily. “Hey, can you guys talk to me too?”

 “Little Uncle, you should just concentrate on driving.” Li Xiaoxia was unhappy to be interrupted.

 “Oh, right, Brother Shaobin, could you please stop at the corner ahead? I want to get some watermelon juice. I’m a little thirsty.” Changqing said, “Do you guys want some?”

 “I want watermelon juice too.” Li Xiaoxia raised his hand.

 “I don’t,” Li Shaobin said lightly.

 Changqing got out of the car and brought two freshly squeezed fruit juices, passing one to Li Xiaoxia and drinking one herself.

 “Sister Changqing, do you know what kind of man Ruan Yang likes?” Li Xiaoxia asked excitedly.

 “Mm…” Xin Ziao’s face flashed in Changqing’s mind and she was in distress. “Actually, Ruan Yang might seem very well-regarded on television, but privately, she’s still someone who yearns for a man to embrace and care for her.”

 Li Xiaoxia seemed to have come to a sudden realization. Luckily, he was meticulous and generous enough usually.

 Up ahead, Li Shaobin, who was driving ferociously, made a sudden sharp turn ahead. Changqing’s body tilted and her drink spilled all over Li Shaobin’s chest. The cold drink made Li Shaobin shiver from the chill.

 “Aiya, Brother Shaobin, I’m really sorry.” Changqing quickly helped him wipe up the spill with tissues. However, the stains from watermelon juice were the hardest to get rid of. After wiping for a long time, his shirt became even dirtier.

 Li Shaobin’s face darkened. Changqing quickly said, “There’s a men’s boutique up ahead—why don’t I go over to buy you some clothes? I’ll pay for it.”

“No need…”

 “No way, Little Uncle, you’d better get a new one.” Li Xiaoxia crawled over to the side of his ear anxiously, saying, “This image of yours is terrible. I don’t want to leave Ruan Yang with a bad impression because of you. You can’t drag me down.”

Li Shaobin: “…”

 He really wanted to change nephews.

 “Let’s go, let’s go get changed.” Changqing insisted.

 He really couldn’t reject them, so he parked his car outside an exquisite men’s boutique. Li Shaobin looked at the clothes on the models in the display window and frowned. He hated buying clothes the most.

 “Pretty lady, sir, do you want to get some pants or shirts?” The shop assistant looked at Li Shaobin’s clothing and said with a grin, “Sir, do you like brighter colours?”

 Li Shaobin was about to open his mouth when Changqing interrupted him, pointing at a black shirt a model was wearing and said, “I think this looks pretty good.”

 “It’s too black; wearing it on such a day would be so hot.” Li Shaobin frowned the moment he saw it.

 Changqing slid closer to him and said, “But I think you would look very impressive in this, making people fear you from deep within with just one look.”

 “Really?” Li Shaobin hesitated from her words.

 “I’m not lying to you. Black is an exceptionally tense colour.” Changqing said seriously, “In the past, I would be afraid of those men who wore black because their aura was too suppressive.”

 “Them… let’s give it a try.” Li Shaobin stopped hesitating immediately.

 “Let’s try the white pants and shoes all in one go while we’re at it.” Changqing said, “If we’re going to try clothes on, we’ll have to try the full set. That way, the aura will really show.”

 “How troublesome.” Li Shaobin found trying on clothes the most annoying.

 Li Xiaoxia said with annoyance, “Li Shaobin, just go and give it a try. Wearing black on black is so messed up; are you going to attend a funeral?”

 Li Shaobin’s face sank, taking the entire set to the changing room with gritted teeth.

 Changqing looked around again to see if there were any that would fit Song Chuchu.

 Just then, Li Xiaoxia suddenly called out, “Wow, Li Shaobin, I’ve known you for more than ten years but I’m finally seeing you looking handsome for once.”

 Li Shaobin glared at him. “When is your Little Uncle not handsome?”

 Changqing turned her head back and was in a daze. She almost didn’t recognize him.

 This was still Li Shaobin; just a mere change of clothes seemed to have changed him entirely.

 He was as tall as Song Chuyi, but his skin tone was a slightly tanner bronze. The black shirt might’ve been a size smaller than what he usually wore, revealing his perfect chest muscles. On the bottom, the simple white pants covered his long legs. The service staff was helping him roll up the legs of his pants slightly to reveal a small section of his bronze ankle. On his feet, he was wearing a pair of similar, simple white canvas shoes. He was exuding masculinity and jauntiness. Even his blonde hair looked much more fashionable and pleasing. The only regret was that gold necklace on his neck…

 The shopping assistant could also tell and quickly stood up to help him button up the button at his collarbone to cover it up, hiding the necklace inside.

 “It’s very hot like this.” Li Shaobin wanted to undo it immediately.

 Changqing stopped him quickly. “Don’t! You look a little more handsome buttoned up like this. It really shows your chest muscles. Really. You’re simply more handsome than my Chuchu right now.”

 “Really?” Li Shaobin was happy the moment he heard that. It seemed like Song Chuyi, that rascal, should’ve come over to take a look. Even his wife was praising him. If he heard it, he would definitely flip.

 “Really.” Changqing asked the shopping assistant, “Do you have hair wax here?”

 “Yes, yes, yes.” The shopping assistant took it out immediately.

 Changqing used a comb to comb down his slightly messy hair and used a little hair wax to set his style. Those angular features, long eyebrows reaching his temples, bright eyes, and tall nose bridge made him look impressive with a hint of naughtiness.

Changqing was still nodding her head. How handsome.

 She felt that if she were to stop being a host in the future, she could become a stylist.

 Li Xiaoxia blinked and was already dumbfounded. “Little Uncle, are you still my Little Uncle?”

 Li Shaobin stood in front of the mirror full of curiosity as well, and when he saw himself in the mirror, he also felt strange, asking with a face full of doubt, “Do I really look very handsome like this?”

 Changqing was speechless. Could he not tell for himself?

 Li Xiaoxia moved right up to her secretly. “My Little Uncle has always been a retard when it comes to aesthetics. I heard from my dad that he has an aesthetic impediment.”

 “Oh.” Changqing came to a sudden realization.

 She sympathized with Li Shaobin even more. A person with an aesthetic impediment—how pitiful.

 “If we all say that it’s handsome, you’re most definitely handsome.” Changqing took her phone out and snapped a few photos of him. “I’ll show this to Chuchu when I get back later.”

 Li Shaobin nodded delightedly when he heard that. “You have to let Old Song take a look. He always thinks he’s the only handsome one in the world and he’s so smug—I can’t stand him.”

 Perhaps it was because he was praised, but Li Shaobin’s mood was great on the drive to Xi Yu Theater.

 However, Li Xiaoxia was in distress.

 His uncle had suddenly become so handsome. Would he steal the limelight away from him in front of Ruan Yang later?

 How conflicting.

 When the trio arrived at the theater, the underground car park was already sealed off by security, saying that the lots were all filled up and they couldn’t find any parking lots nearby either. Li Shaobin was unhappy and squeezed into a lot a hundred meters away from the theater with his superb driving skills.

 The entire theater, both upstairs and downstairs, were filled with Ruan Yang and Xia Junmeng’s fans. There were at least thousands of them and because it was the summer holiday, there were exceptionally many fans.

 Ruan Yang’s assistant, Xiao Zhu, came down to pick them up. The largest hall in the theater was filled with people. Xiao Zhu had arranged for them to sit in the second row. Li Xiaoxia asked impatiently, “Sister Zhu, where’s Ruan Yang? When is she coming out?”

“She’s still touching up in the back. Take a seat first. The host will arrange for her to come out later. I’ll have to get busy now.” Xiao Zhu hurried off after explaining to them.

 Li Xiaoxia became anxious. “Sister Changqing, we won’t just be seeing her from this distance, right?”

 He still wanted to introduce himself in front of Ruan Yang and have a chat with her face to face.

 “No, Ruan Yang will see us after she is done.” Changqing comforted him.

 Li Xiaoxia heaved a sigh of relief and waited for Ruan Yang to go on stage quietly and nervously.

 After around five minutes, the host walked on stage and invited the lead actors to come up one by one.

 In the huge hall, the sound of fans chanting “Ruan Yang, Ruan Yang, Ruan Yang…” suddenly echoed around.

 “Mengmeng, Mengmeng…”

 Li Shaobin covered his ears in pain and after that, he miserably realized there was a bomb beside him that was even more agitated than everyone else. Li Xiaoxia raised Ruan Yang’s sign agitatedly while standing on his seat, waving his hand wildly.

 The host smiled. “Quiet down, everyone. Shall we let our two lead actors greet everyone?”

 After he finished, the screams got louder and finally quieted down after a good one minute. Ruan Yang smiled and waved. “Hello everyone, I am Ruan Yang, and my character in the movie is Xia Zhen.”

 Li Xiaoxia shouted agitatedly, “I have a Xia in my name too.”

 Li Shaobin pulled him down with embarrassment and covered his mouth, warning him, “You told me many times to mind my image when we were on the way. Look at yourself—don’t say that you’re my nephew in the future. How embarrassing.”

 “Right, right, right, I was too agitated when I saw my goddess.” Li Xiaoxia quickly took a few deep breaths and calmed down. “I’m different from those die-hard fans; I’m here to woo Ruan Yang.”

 Changqing blinked. “What did he just say?”

 Did she hear wrong?

 “He just likes to joke around.” Li Shaobin quickly laughed it off and pinched Li Xiaoxia hard on his back.

 Li Xiaoxia quickly covered his mouth. He couldn’t alarm them right now. Otherwise, what would he do if Ruan Yang got a scare?

 Because the fans were too passionate, the host spent around forty to fifty minutes on this segment. After the interview and interactions, the main cast took a photo with the fans before watching the film together.

 Actually, most of the fans there had already watched the film. However, to be able to watch it with their favorite celebrity felt different. Only Li Shaobin found it boring, so he suddenly wanted to annoy Song Chuchu. He took his phone out and took a selfie, sending it with the words: Aren’t I handsome? Your wife even praised that I was handsome just now. Hahahaha.
