"Wow—you're amazing. I wonder when Director Zhang's movie will be released. I really want to see what you look like in it."

"Wasn't the owner present when the photo was taken?"

“The atmosphere is different, the atmosphere.” Xiao Bai gestured in the air to explain, then smiled at Loki as if he remembered something, “Oh right, Director Zhang transferred five million in film fees to me today, I’ll transfer it all to you later.”

"?"

"Don't make that weird face. You earned this money, so of course it's yours."

"But I don't have any uses for the money."

"Take your time to think about it. This is a very happy kind of trouble."

"..." Loki thought for a moment, then tilted his head to look at Little White, "Is it okay to distribute them however you like?"

"Yes."

"..."

"Loki, what's wrong?"

“I’ve got an idea.” Loki stopped and looked at Little White.

"what?"

“I would like to invite Master to a meal,” Loki said.

"Eh? Now?"

"Ah."

"We just finished eating not long ago..."

Little White and Loki chatted back and forth as they walked further and further down the street.

……

As the SUV drove along the roads of Yuncheng, the surrounding scenery flashed by like a streak of light.

The spacious interior of the off-road vehicle.

Lu Ming sat alone in the back seat, listening to his manager's incessant nagging from the passenger seat.

"Did you just run into sasaeng fans?"

"They let him go??"

"That won't do! I've said it so many times: when you encounter fans with such malicious behavior, no matter what their initial purpose was, they must be taken to the police station immediately after being apprehended, because they have violated your right to privacy!"

"It will certainly have some impact if a celebrity sends a fan to the police station, but the procedures still have to be followed in any case."

"Tell me the characteristics of that sasaeng fan right now. This matter deserves an explanation no matter what."

"Luming, are you listening? Luming?"

"..."

The agent in the passenger seat spoke as he sat back down and looked at Lu Ming.

Upon seeing Lu Ming's current state, the manager was taken aback, sighed helplessly, and sat back down.

"Never mind, let's talk about that fan when we get back to the company."

The agent had an expression that said, "You won't listen anyway."

Behind the car.

Lu Ming sat quietly in her seat, her head slightly lowered, staring at her thighs with a faint smile on her face.

Lu Ming stared at his legs, his gaze seemingly extending further ahead, reaching into some distant place.

—How novel!

—The fact that I was actually protected.

Lu Ming bent down and pressed his face against his smooth knees.

The off-road vehicle sped along the Yuncheng Highway, driving into the steel jungle.

……

night.

When Xiaobai and Loki returned to the villa, as soon as they opened the door, they heard the lively complaints of the Deep Sea Deans coming from inside.

The directors of the Deep Sea Institute were currently gathered in the living room watching television.

"I'm taking extra classes every day like I'm going to work. When will this ever end?"

Deep Sea Yamato lay limply on the living room floor, while Super Yamato knelt beside her, continuously massaging her aching shoulders.

"Ah, right here, harder, ah..."

The deep-sea Yamato made a soothing sound on the floor as it received a massage from the super-sized Yamato.

“Didn’t the tutor say they needed to monitor the progress? Look at Loki, she finished her acting class very quickly, and she had a chance to go out today, didn’t she?” Pachina said casually while sitting on the sofa, holding a bottle of blue nail polish and painting her snow-white toes. “Don’t the teachers always say you’re full of emotion? Why don’t you put more of that into your acting classes?”

"I have absolutely no idea how to do acting classes!" Upon hearing this, Akami Yamato on the ground immediately retorted as if her spine had been poked. "I don't understand acting at all! How can someone cry when they want to cry and laugh when they want to laugh? No matter how hard I try, I can't do it! People who can do that are obviously terrifying! I can only laugh when I'm happy!"

"Even if someone like you became a celebrity, you'd probably just be a pretty face." Pachina sighed, holding the nail polish cap in her hand and resting her chin on her hand.

"I've clearly been working very hard, okay!"

"I definitely noticed that he was trying to sleep all day in the dressing room."

Chapter 2285 Humans and Ship Girls I

Perhaps because Xiaobai and Loki opened the door quietly, the Deep Sea Deans in the living room did not notice Xiaobai's return.

"Dangerous remarks! I heard dangerous remarks!" Deep Sea Yamato raised his hand sharply, pointing tremblingly at Pachina. "These words are exclusionary! They are sarcastic! They are defamatory!"

"Yes, Yamato-nee really works hard!" Chao Yamato nodded quickly, echoing from the side.

“Sigh…” Pachina turned his head to look at the two Deep Sea Deans on the floor, and was speechless for a moment.

"Chicken soup is here!" Just then, Akagi came out of the kitchen carrying a pot of steaming chicken soup. She placed the pot on the living room table, looked towards the door, and saw Xiaobai who had just pushed the door open. "Oh? Xiaobai, you're back already?"

Upon hearing Akagi's voice, the deep-sea deans in the living room all turned to look at him.

"I'm back!" Xiaobai waved to the people in the living room.

"Whitey! You're finally back!" Deep Sea Yamato sprang to his feet and rushed to Whitey's side, then looked at Loki with a cautious expression. "Oh—you little thief!"

“Yes,” Shiro said with a smile to Yamato Abyss.

Where did you go today?

"In the morning, Director Chen said he needed to talk to me. Since Loki was free, I went out with Loki."

"Huh? Something's up? What is it?"

"Director Chen introduced me to a celebrity."

"What big star is he? Such a grand entrance, and you, Xiaobai, have to personally greet him." Akagi, who was standing nearby, also walked over with interest.

“She is indeed a big star…” Xiao Bai smiled at everyone, then looked at the TV and pointed to the screen, “Yes, you’re watching this too, it’s her.”

Everyone in the living room was taken aback and turned to look at the television screen.

The TV in the living room was playing the most popular drama series at the moment, and it just so happened that the scene showed a nurse carrying a wounded patient under the cover of gunfire.

Everyone stared at the television screen and blinked.

"Huh? Who?"

"That's her, the little nurse from the TV series," Xiaobai pointed again.

"Huh!?" Everyone in the living room exclaimed in surprise, "It's her?"

Lu Ming is indeed very famous; even the deep-sea deans of the newbie garrison are familiar with her.

“I remember this person is a very famous star, right?” Akagi seemed very interested in Lu Ming as well. “He’s an actor who appeared a few months ago and became an instant hit after starring in this drama.”

“Yes, her name is Lu Ming,” Xiao Bai said.

"Oh, what an elegant name," Akagi chuckled.

"She's very beautiful in person too." Xiaobai laughed. "She even treated me to dinner today, so I got to experience what it's like to be a big star."

"This is really... I don't even know which side to be jealous of for a moment," Akagi sighed.

"Is this Shikamaru a ship girl?" Abyss Yamato, stroking her chin, suddenly asked Shiro.

"Huh? What do you mean by that?" Xiaobai was taken aback.

"Look how beautiful she is," Yamato Abyss said confidently, hands on her hips. "Besides our Abyss Dean and you ship girls, it's hard to find a human this beautiful!"

"There are also very good-looking humans..." Xiaobai smiled wryly, "Like Ringo-neechan, yeah... But Shikamaru-san is probably human, right? If she were a ship girl, I should be able to tell."

"Don't trust the women on the screen." Pachina yawned and reminded her, "Even humans can present a beautiful appearance on the screen through makeup, decoration, and filters. In this respect, many ship girls are not as good as them."

"Damn it, so that's how it is." Yamato Shinkai realized belatedly.

"What a disparity! We spend all day at home learning how to please people, while some people get to eat with big stars and enjoy all the good things in life."

"Everyone has a chance... I guess."

"Humph."

"I didn't feel anything while watching the TV series, but when Xiaobai mentioned that she had dinner with this nurse today, I suddenly lost all interest in the show."

"how you said that?"

"It's like being suddenly forced to realize that the story is fake and the characters are virtual characters played by actors... It's strange, how come I never realized this before?"

"It's probably a problem with his acting skills."

"Is acting really that amazing?! This girl named Lu Ming is terrifying!"

"Xiaobai, you didn't let her trick you out of something important, did she?!"

The directors of the Deep Sea Institute were talking one after another, and their voices suddenly filled the living room.

Faced with everyone's questioning, Xiao Bai gave an awkward smile.

The story of how Director Chen called Lu Ming out to meet him was eventually told to the curious crowd by Xiao Baizi after being pressed by the Deans of the Deep Sea Academy.

After satisfying everyone's curiosity, the villa's daily life returned to normal.

The courses taught by the Deans of the Deep Sea Institute continued on the second day.

After the little incident with Lu Ming, daily life seemed to return to what it was like a while ago. Teachers came to give lessons every day in an endless stream, and the Deep Sea Deans hardly had any time to rest. Xiao Bai had nothing to do in the villa. Apart from occasionally supervising the Deep Sea Deans' learning progress, she would accompany the ship girls to go shopping occasionally, play in the water with the ship girls, and go shopping. Then she would go out to buy some snacks and small gifts for the Deep Sea Deans who were too busy to go. Every night, she would listen to them complain about their boring and tedious course life and vent their stress about studying.

If I had to say there was anything particularly special I did...

That is, Xiaobai started paying attention to all the news about Luming online recently. From Luming's latest works to her resume, Xiaobai read almost everything. Through this period of online research, Xiaobai has gained a basic understanding of this rising national goddess.

—Lu Ming is a typical actress who suddenly became popular. Although her popularity is already at the pinnacle of human society, surpassing countless veteran stars who have been in the industry for more than ten or even decades, it has only been a few months since she debuted.

There is a lot of news about Lu Ming online, mostly about her appearance in a certain city or her participation in a certain program. However, when Xiao Bai tried to find out Lu Ming's specific identity online, such as her date of birth, place of residence, education level, and family relationships, she found that no matter how she searched, she could hardly find any valuable information.

Even if there are any, they are mostly just fans' speculations, without any evidence or proof.

This so-called Miss Luming seems to have suddenly appeared out of nowhere and become famous.

Xiao Bai even specifically asked Director Chen about this issue via his mobile phone.

Director Chen commented that for a big star like Lu Ming, the entertainment company must have done a good job of keeping her identity confidential. It's normal that her specific identity information cannot be found for a while; it's an unspoken rule in the industry.

Director Chen also said that if Xiaobai is really interested in Luming, she can go to Luming's company to directly access Luming's information files. As the world's first admiral, she has that right.

After hearing Director Chen's explanation, Xiao Bai suddenly understood and didn't dwell on the question any further. As for checking Lu Ming's household registration, Xiao Bai certainly didn't do that either.

Time passed day by day.

at last.

One afternoon.

Just as Xiaobai was squatting by the pool, watching the four Fubuki sisters happily playing in the water in their school swimsuits, she finally received Director Chen's exciting phone call.

During the phone call, Director Chen excitedly told Xiaobai some good news: Lu Ming's entertainment company had finally cleared Lu Ming's schedule, and she could attend a very popular variety show as a special guest in a week.

After careful consideration, Director Chen selected that variety show as the debut stage for the ship girl idols.

After briefly verifying the information with Director Chen, Xiaobai thanked him and then hung up the phone.

"Phew..." Xiaobai held her phone and let out a long sigh of relief.
