Chapter 58: Chapter 57: Is Your Husband Handsome or Dr. Gao Handsome?

Xia Zi never dreamed that she would one day be able to see Gao Chuan from such a close distance. After all, he had always been a senior she admired. Upon meeting him in person, she became so nervous that she was momentarily lost for words. Listening to Jiang An directly introducing her as a little fangirl of his, her face flushed with shyness. Jiang An witnessed her standing frozen in place like a fool upon seeing Dr. Gao and stealthily pinched Xia Zi’s arm, saying, "Say something."

For Xia Zi, everything felt like a dream. It was only after Jiang An’s reminder that she barely snapped back to reality, nodding her head like she was pounding garlic, with her gaze fixed on Gao Chuan. Her speech became awkward: "Um, um, um."

The three of them stood in the corridor, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Overwhelmed by her idol, Xia Zi’s speech was incoherent, "Great god, I... I am Jiang An’s... good friend, and I really admire your..."

Jiang An never expected that the usually extroverted Xia Zi would one day be too shy to speak. Her stumbling manner was somehow endearingly cute.

Gao Chuan faced the two nervously fidgeting young women with a gentle look, standing quietly and listening to Xia Zi’s hesitant words. His gaze inadvertently shifted to Jiang An beside him, noticing her making faces at him in an attempt to convey a message. Their eyes met briefly; the man seemed to have received the girl’s message, cleared his throat, and said to Xia Zi, "Hello."

At this moment, Xia Zi felt like a volcano erupting inside her, never expecting that her idol would actually greet her personally. She was pleasantly surprised.

Gao Chuan glanced at his wristwatch and mentioned that he still had things to tend to in his department. He then warmly bid farewell to the two women. It was only after his figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor that Jiang An finally breathed a sigh of relief, while Xia Zi was still immersed in the excitement of meeting her idol, her face still dreamy.

Although aware that Gao Chuan got to know Jiang An through treating her mother, as they left the hospital, Xia Zi couldn’t help but pry into their relationship, "Are you very close to my idol?"

"Well, sometimes we greet each other when we meet," said Jiang An with a calm exterior but internally panicking. Considering if sharing a bed with Dr. Gao counted as being close.

Hearing Jiang An say this, Xia Zi showed an ambiguous smile and continued to ask whether Jiang An had Dr. Gao’s WeChat.

Seeing Xia Zi’s gossipy expression, Jiang An almost blurted out, "No way, you’re not seriously thinking of chasing after Dr. Gao, are you? Don’t you have a boyfriend?"

Stunned by the anger evident in Jiang An’s tone, Xia Zi felt confused for a moment. Jiang An then realized her words might have given herself away, annoyingly wondering if she just accused herself without reason, and heard Xia Zi’s questioning voice, "I’m just asking, why such a big reaction!"

Speechless, Jiang An—realizing her earlier words were blurted out without much thought—contemplated that Xia Zi likely admired Dr. Gao as a respected senior and probably had no inappropriate thoughts.

"It’s nothing, I don’t," Jiang An flatly refused, a faint blush creeping over her face, having experienced too many thrilling moments today.

Xia Zi noticed something off about her expression, like someone whose thoughts had been pierced, circling to Jiang An’s front, "That’s not right, there must be something, don’t tell me you have a crush on Dr. Gao."

In terms of gossip, Jiang An was mere fractions compared to Xia Zi. Caught off guard, Jiang An clumsily responded, "How could that be, I’m already married, you know?"

Reluctantly nodding, Xia Zi shifted her attention from Dr. Gao to the person Jiang An mentioned as her spouse, suddenly asking out of nowhere, "Is your husband more handsome or Dr. Gao?"

Jiang An: "..."

This seemed like a deadly question. Stuck for words, Xia Zi, seeing her difficulty, quickly turned her eyes and cheekily said, "Certainly not, how could he be more handsome than Dr. Gao."

Jiang An: "..."

Things seem to be developing in an increasingly strange direction. They were waiting for the bus back to school after hoping that the topic had ended, when Jiang An received a WeChat message from Gao Chuan.

Gao Chuan: Have you finished with things at school?

Jiang An realized it was a message from ten minutes ago, right when the three of them had just parted. Suddenly, she felt a pang of guilt for deceiving Xia Zi and replied: "Almost."

The other party replied instantly: "Then how about coming home tonight?"

It was the first time Gao Chuan had asked her to come home, and Jiang An couldn’t help but smile. A few seconds later, she saw Dr. Gao sent another message: "I got the medicine Ms. Shen brought for you."

Only then did Jiang An suddenly remember when she had encountered Gao Chuan in the corridor; he seemed to have something for her but she had pushed it back to him. At that time, she was only concerned about not letting Xia Zi find out about their relationship and had not thought of much else. Now, she recalled it retrospectively.

She grabbed Dr. Gao’s hand.

The girl’s eyebrows twitched slightly, pursed her lips into a smile, and replied.

Jiang An: Okay.

A few days ago, there was already plenty of public ferment online about the recent sasaeng incident. The film’s director, fearing the impact on the movie’s publicity, had hired a public relations team to suppress it. The school, to protect the privacy of students, chose not to respond. Consequently, the film crew had to end their shooting on campus, forcing Ji Wanwan to head to S City to catch up on the filming process.

It took about a week for Ji Wanwan to finish her scenes, and she returned to Jing City the next day. The fatigued woman leaned weakly against the car seat, closed her eyes to rest with her rosy lips and white teeth showing, looking so naturally beautiful it was hard to look away.

Her agent kept flipping through her recent schedules, knowing that Ji Wanwan intended to take a break for a while, but he couldn’t bear to waste this opportunity when her popularity was at its peak. He softly asked, "Miss, shall we take another variety show next month?"

Ji Wanwan had risen from an unknown figure to a widely celebrated lead actress over the past six years, a journey full of unseen hardships known only to her agent who had always been by her side. With a currently popular youth idol drama, Ji Wanwan had certainly gained a lot of new fans. Naturally, her agent also wanted her to seize this opportunity to appear more on screen. However, unexpectedly, the lady requested to rest, and even to rest for a whole month.

Hearing her agent’s humbled request, Ji Wanwan slightly opened her eyes, her mouth imperceptibly curving into a cold denial: "No."

By this time, the car had already entered East Lake Villa. The woman put on a black and white bucket hat and was about to step out of the car, when her agent tried to argue: "But Miss, what are you going to do staying at home for a whole month? How boring!"

Ji Wanwan paused slightly, reached out to open the car door, looked back at her agent with a barely there smile, and responded to the agent’s question: "Going home to spend time with my husband."

Agent: "..."
