Chapter 55 Moving into the Residential Community

"They're still there. They're very vigilant; they leave quickly if a stranger gets close."

Upon hearing Bai Ge's words, Xu An asked him some questions out of curiosity, and then couldn't help but sigh.

"That's incredibly persistent!"

It turned out to be a group of paparazzi who had been staking out the entrance of Baige residential area, trying to take some private photos for profit.

Crucially, they are also very vigilant, never sneaking into the residential area, and if a stranger approaches, they pretend to be a passerby and retreat immediately.

So even though Bai Ge knew about the paparazzi, he was unable to solve the problem.

"They're like a leech, making it impossible for Sister Bai Ge to go out normally."

Yan Wei, standing to the side, said indignantly.

"Never mind, they can't get into the community anyway, so it won't make much of a difference."

Bai Ge, on the other hand, took it all in stride.

As a film queen, she was already used to being photographed by paparazzi.

When I first entered the industry, I felt angry, but now I've let it go.

This is the helplessness of being a public figure.

Hearing their conversation, Xu An gradually formed an idea in his mind.

However, whether it's feasible or not is another matter, so he didn't rush to say it.

Afterwards, Xu An, Bai Ge, and Yan Wei arrived at their residential area.

Xu An was stunned when he entered the room Bai Ge had prepared for him.

"Sister Bai Ge, is this what you meant by 'a bit simple,' and that you shouldn't mind?"

"Such a big place? And I live alone?"

Xu An pointed to the three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment in front of him, which looked to be over 100 square meters, and couldn't help but relax.

When Bai Ge mentioned it before, he thought it was some kind of private room!

The key point is that this is not some desolate wilderness, but a high-end residential area within the Third Ring Road of Beijing!

"Yes, I live there, not far from here."

"By the way, Xiaowei's house is right next door."

Bai Ge pointed to two villas about a hundred meters away from the window and said casually.

Looking at the two villas, Xu An's eyes immediately cleared.

Looking at it this way, I realize that my living conditions are indeed a bit shabby.

"Alright, Xiao An, you can rest now. I've already registered your access card, and there's a spare one on the table."

I'll call you for dinner.

"I have work tomorrow, and I need you to come with me!"

Bai Ge and Yan Wei didn't stay in Xu An's room for long and left quickly.

After the two left, Xu An did not rest as Bai Ge had suggested. Instead, he opened the system panel and decided to see if his idea could be realized.

……

At Yan Wei's home.

Bai Ge was talking with Yan Wei's mother.

"Xiao Ge, how's Xiao Hong's show?"

"I heard her say that the show's pace was slow, and I also heard you say that you wanted to relax, so I introduced you to the show."

Yan Wei's mother, Chen Yan, said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ge gave a wry smile.

"Sister Yan, Director Chen didn't let me relax at all; he almost made me go harvest wheat!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan was taken aback.

She hadn't actually watched Chen Hong's show. After hearing what Bai Ge said, she wondered if she had tricked her.

Thinking of this, she turned to look at Yan Wei beside her.

"Xiaowei, your aunt isn't really going to mess with Xiaoge, is she?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Wei was taken aback.

To be honest, Bai Ge almost went to harvest wheat; but to be honest, she also brought an assistant back from the show.

Seeing that Yan Wei remained silent, Chen Yan assumed that Bai Ge was right and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"That Xiaohong is really something, she didn't even tell me beforehand!"

"Don't worry, Xiao Ge, next time Xiao Hong comes to me, I'll definitely stand up for you!"

In the editing room of Peach Blossom Cottage, Chen Hong suddenly sneezed.

Could it be that Xu An is secretly talking about her behind her back?

Chen Hong muttered to herself.

"Edit faster, there's way more footage for this episode than before."

At Yan Wei's home, the three of them, unaware that Chen Hong was still working overtime editing, continued chatting in a harmonious atmosphere when suddenly, Bai Ge received a phone call.

Ignoring it, Bai Ge answered the call and held it to his ear. After listening for a few minutes, a somewhat bewildered look appeared on his face.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Seeing Bai Ge's surprised expression after hanging up the phone, Yan Wei couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Sister Bai Ge, what's wrong?"

Bai Ge looked up at Yan Wei, her gentle voice revealing a hint of disbelief.

"Xiao An got caught by the paparazzi taking pictures at the door!"

"I'm currently at the community security office. The property management just called me and asked if I needed to call the police."

"Huh?" Yan Wei's delicate face showed a look of shock.

Are you sure you're talking about Xu An?

Although Chen Yan, who was standing to the side, did not know who Xu An was, she was surprised to hear that the paparazzi had been arrested.

She knew there were paparazzi at the entrance of the residential area, but weren't those paparazzi extremely vigilant and would leave as soon as someone approached?

How could they still get caught?

"I'll go to the guardhouse first to check if Xiao An is hurt."

Bai Ge stood up in a hurry, her usual elegant and calm demeanor vanished, and she hurriedly said goodbye before leaving.

"Sister Ge, wait for me, I'm going to check on Xu An too!"

Yan Wei quickly got up and followed him in a flurry.

Seeing the two women looking so anxious, Chen Yan was surprised but suddenly felt something was wrong.

The one who caught the paparazzi looks like a man, right?

Bai Ge and Yan Wei arrived at the guardhouse. Seeing the two middle-aged men, one fat and one thin, being held by the security guards, Bai Ge knew they must be paparazzi.

However, her attention was not on the two of them at this moment. Instead, she looked around with some concern and soon spotted her target.

The scene she had imagined, with Xu An covered in wounds, did not occur. What surprised her was something else entirely.

"You are... Xiao An?"

"How did it become like this?"

Bai Ge looked at Xu An, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses and a plaid shirt, and who looked like a gloomy nerd, completely different from the sunny boy whose looks were comparable to those of a celebrity, and said hesitantly.

"Why is your skin so dark?"

Yan Wei also looked surprised.

"I did a simple makeup."

Seeing the surprised looks on the two women's faces, Xu An took off his glasses and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the two women observed carefully and indeed found traces of makeup on Xu An's face, leaving them speechless.

"How come you know how to do makeup? And it looks pretty good!"

"Do other people apply makeup to make themselves look better?"

"Why are you doing it the other way around?"

Yan Wei's voice revealed confusion.

"What if I recognize it if I don't draw it like this?" Xu An said matter-of-factly.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ge realized what was happening.

"Xiao An, are you wearing makeup to get close to the paparazzi?"

"But how exactly did you get close to me?"

"They were clearly very wary!"

Bai Ge's voice conveyed disbelief.

Upon hearing this, Xu An kept it a secret.

"I recorded it, do you two want to take a look?"

After saying that, he took out a camera from his pocket.

It was the live-streaming camera that Chen Hong had given to him before he left.
