Volume 4 Chapter 56: Someone Is Causing Trouble
Because of the wave of fans chasing her just now, Lin Lin was still a little shaken.
She pulled Gao Liang along, walking close to the wall carefully.
Gao Liang almost felt like he had stepped into a minefield, as if he were a soldier clearing landmines.
“Lin Lin… what’s wrong with you?”
“Uh, I… I’m not very good at dealing with strangers who come up to talk to me.”
The girl gave a simple answer to her rival, then quickly turned her head away. The atmosphere became quiet. Gao Liang thought for a moment, nodded, and continued to follow her.
After a while, Lin Lin suddenly heard her phone notification sound. She quickly took out her phone and looked at the message.
【Du Wenmei: Xiao Lin, come back quickly. It’s time for rehearsal~】
【Du Wenmei: Bring Xiao Ye with you!】
【Lin Lin: Uh… Gao Ye isn’t with me. She ran off somewhere by herself…】
【Du Wenmei: Oh? Okay then, I’ll go find her. Xiao Lin, hurry back~】
【Lin Lin: Okay!】
After receiving Sister Wenmei’s message, Lin Lin, who already wanted to return to the dressing room, finally had the perfect excuse. She had to run away now. This was her best chance!
As for the reason…
Lin Lin thought for a moment, then turned around and patted her rival on the shoulder seriously.
“I’m going to get my salary. Bye!”
“Huh? Lin Lin, I’ll go with you!”
Huh?
This guy…
Why is he so clingy?
Lin Lin puffed up her cheeks unhappily and muttered, “I’m just getting paid, not doing some mafia deal. I don’t need you to come with me. You can go walk around, or go find your friend. I-I-I really have something to do. I’m leaving first!”
After saying that, she hurried off, leaving Gao Liang standing there, calmly scratching his head.
Lin Lin runs pretty fast.
Hmm…
Why does this direction feel like she’s running back?
Isn’t that… the little vampire’s booth?
Oh…
So Lin Lin really was hired by the little vampire’s team?
Maybe… I should ask her later if she has seen what the little vampire looks like?
Uh…
But that wouldn’t mean much.
Because the person I suspect is…
Forget it. I’ll just meet the little vampire in person.
But there’s no need to rush.
Gao Liang looked around the convention hall. His face slowly turned serious. He took out his phone, downloaded and opened Weibo, which he hadn’t used in a long time, and then…
Removed a certain account from his blacklist.
As expected.
Someone is causing trouble.
…………………
Huff… huff…
After running about 200 meters, Lin Lin looked back. She saw her rival still standing there, playing with his phone, with no intention of chasing her.
She finally felt relieved.
Good, good.
It looks like this time, he doesn’t plan to stop me.
If she had run like that and he reacted quickly, he would have stopped her in one second.
After that, things became simple. Lin Lin mixed into the crowd and quickly slipped back to the backstage area through a small path.
But as soon as she returned backstage, she saw Sister Wenmei anxiously making phone calls, walking back and forth.
W-What’s going on?
Lin Lin walked over nervously. When Du Wenmei heard the footsteps and turned around, she relaxed a little after seeing it was Lin Lin.
“Ah… you’re back. Did you see Xiao Ye, Xiao Lin?”
“N-No, I didn’t. You still can’t reach her?”
“No. She’s not answering her phone…”
Du Wenmei shook her head helplessly. “Why did you two split up? I should have made you stay here. Rehearsal is about to start, and now she’s gone.”
“Um… I think maybe she had something to do,” Lin Lin said honestly.
She really didn’t know what Gao Ye had run off to do. That girl always appears and disappears suddenly.
Du Wenmei sighed, lowered her head in disappointment, and continued calling.
Strange. Why is she still not answering?
………………
On the other side, the phone in Gao Ye’s pocket kept lighting up. But because she didn’t turn on vibration or sound, and she was too focused, she didn’t notice at all.
She was still in the middle of the crowded convention hall, trying to find someone.
But… it was too hard.
There were simply too many people.
Finding one specific person in such a huge crowd was not easy. And the worst part was, this crowd was brought here by the very person she was looking for.
Yes, Yi Xiao…
Gao Ye saw the post that woman made on Weibo. Actually, the moment she saw so many people come in, people who clearly were not regular anime fans, she guessed that Yi Xiao had done something.
At first, she thought Yi Xiao hired people to cause trouble. But it turned out she didn’t even need to spend money. That woman just posted something on Weibo, and many local fans from Huadu, plus friends dragged along by her fans, all came here.
Seriously… she gathered so many people, but where did she go herself?
Gao Ye had a strong feeling that Yi Xiao was planning something bad. But she couldn’t even see her anywhere.
While Gao Ye was searching carefully, someone suddenly brushed against her pocket in the crowded space.
She became alert immediately, covered her pocket, and quickly stepped aside. With so many people at the convention, she had to be careful of pickpockets.
She moved to the side, took out her phone, and finally had time to check it.
Good grief. More than ten missed calls!
And… they were all from the same number.
Gao Ye froze for a moment. When she saw Sister Wenmei’s name on the screen, she immediately understood.
They were calling her back for rehearsal.
Ahh, this is such a delay! Yi Xiao, that woman!
Gao Ye gritted her teeth, quickly sent a reply message to Sister Wenmei, and rushed back to the dressing room.
When she returned, Sister Wenmei and Lin Lin, who had already seen her message, looked much more relieved. They were sitting on the sofa waiting. As soon as Gao Ye came back, Lin Lin puffed up her cheeks and said,
“You! Where did you run off to? Why did you come back so late?”
“Sorry, I came back late… Sister Lin Lin, there’s something… Forget it, I’ll tell you later. Let’s… rehearse first.”
“Hm? If there’s something, you can say it first. I just wanted to call you back early. Well… I’ll go to the rehearsal room and wait for you. Xiao Ye, rest for a bit, and after you finish talking, come over quickly!”
Sister Wenmei waved her hand kindly and left.
Gao Ye nodded and sat down beside Lin Lin, her face looking serious.
Lin Lin watched Du Wenmei walk away. Then she turned and saw the little “devil” beside her wearing such a serious expression.
For some reason…
Lin Lin suddenly felt a little nervous.
