Yan Yuan was shocked seeing He Bai’s face darkened, she thought she said something wrong, she was loud in her apologies.

“No, it has nothing to do with you.” He Bai comforted her, he asked more detailed questioned when Yan Yuan calmed down, he was told the girl on the phone had taken two girls upstairs. He turned back and gave Di Qiuhe a look after he said thanks to Yan Yuan, then he walked outside.

He Bai took Di Qiuhe to a corner to avoid the crowd outside the venue.

“What’s going on?” asked Di Qiuhe anxiously, he frowned, “Something went wrong? I noticed the seats were arranged according to nationalities and schools, has the person found fault with you?”

“No,” He Bai shook his head, then he told Di Qiuhe what he had heard from Yan Yuan, and he asked, “I remember grandpa and Xing Shaofeng have arranged us some bodyguards, do you have any idea where they are now?”

Di Qiuhe’s face also clouded after he heard what He Bai said, but he was trying to comfort He Bai, he stroked He Bai’s hair, “I don’t want to be too high profile, so I asked them to take a different flight, they arrived yesterday morning. And they missed us due to the sudden change of our schedule yesterday, they are waiting for us outside the venue.”

They asked Xing Shaofeng to arrange them some bodyguards just in case Di Bian invited himself into their house again, they asked the bodyguards not to follow them when they went on private trips. Recently Xing Shaofeng and grandpa figured Di Qiuhe needed these bodyguards due to the huge success of his movie, they made it a rule that he had to go travelling with the bodyguards. Even though he wanted to have some privacy, he had to update the bodyguards his whereabouts.

He Bai now was so grateful for Xing Shaofeng and grandpa.

“Can you ask them to go to our hotel room to check whether there was any mini spy camera? And also, remember to tell them act natural, like they are in the room to pick up things for us.” with it He Bai checked the time, the ceremony was about to start, he did not want to be late, so he sped up, “From now on, do not have close contact with anyone, even the fans who are asking for your autograph or asking for a picture with you. I’ll come to your seat as soon as the ceremony finishes... ... never mind, how about leaving the ceremony now just in case the people who are sitting next to you are with Di Chunhua?”

“Bai,” Di Qiuhe held He Bai’s hand in a soothing way, “This is your first international award, I want to be here for you. Don’t worry, even though someone has ill intention to me, this is a public occasion with so many artists, I’m safe here. You just have a good time at the ceremony please, I’ll take care of myself, don’t worry.”

He Bai was still anxious, “But... ...”, Qiuhe was an actor, his face was his career, what if... what if something happened?

“There is no but, I’ll be all right now that I have got you, my lucky charm.” Di Qiuhe patted He Bai on his shoulder and pushed him away gently, he said, “No need to worry, this venue is definitely safer than anywhere else with all the guests and cameras, I’m just at the back row, you will see me when you turn. Don’t freak out for nothing, puppy.”

“I’m not freaking out for nothing.” He Bai retorted even though he knew what Di Qiuhe said was right, so he did not ask Di Qiuhe to leave again, he told Di Qiuhe, “All right then, don’t run around, text me every five minutes, meet me at the gate when the ceremony is over, yeah?”

“Yeah, boss man.” Di Qiuhe squeezed his face, and pushed He Bai further. Seeing He Bai enter the venue, he called his bodyguards.

The ceremony began on schedule, after the opening show was a speech on the history and the grand vision of this event by the chairman of the committee, the award presenting part was finally on after that.

The awards were presented by categories, photography was scheduled to the last team, He Bai now was feeling really down.

“Are you nervous as well, He Bai?” Yan Yuan handed He Bai a candy, thinking He Bai was nervous at big occasions like this, she whispered, “Here, something sweet will make you feel better.”

This dragged He Bai to the reality from the wild thoughts running in his mind, he turned to check Di Qiuhe, Di Qiuhe smiled at him, He Bai felt relaxed and he took the candy said thanks to Yan Yuan.

He played with the hard candy in his hand, smiled.

Unlike her father, Yan Yuan was kind and innocent, a lovely and considerate girl.

You could tell a lot by looking at the art someone created, Yan Yuan’s works were archived by a couple of Children’s Museums in his previous life, he believed Yan Yuan was genuinely a nice person.

He put the candy in his mouth, his anxiety began to disappear as the candy kicked his taste buds, he noticed Yan Yuan was fidgeting, he leaned closer to her and comforted her, “You know you are brilliant, you will have a good ranking.” If his memory served him right, Yan Yuan ranked the third in her team.

Yan Yuan flushed crimson, and she stuttered, “Thank you... thank you so much, once again, I want to apologize to you about my father anyways, thank you.”

He Bai told her no worries, now he began to like this girl.
