Chapter 498: Spin off (Yukito and Jing): This side of the glamor

“Ahhhh!!! It’s Yukito!”

“My eyes! Oof, I think I will get blind by his beauty!”

“He is so charming. I cannot take it anymore.”

In the Starlight fashion show, twenty-three years old Yukito was modeling on the stage, launching the latest fashion in men’s wear. With every step he walked on the ramp, the excited squeals of girls echoed throughout the whole stadium. Some of them were even waving banners of his name and hearts surrounding it.

Yukito acknowledged the crowd, curving his lips into a faint smile. It was charming, yet not flirtatious at all.

The girls squealed even more.

“Did you see that? His smile! Gosh, it seemed cold but so warm at the same time.”

“He is like that cool prince keeping his distance from the crowd.”

One of the high school girls said, “That’s it! I am definitely confessing to Yukito today!”

Her friends rolled their eyes. “Yeah, sure. When you are done breaking your heart, meet us at the karaoke after this. Just, please don’t sing sad songs okay?”

“Hey! I have a chance! It’s not like he is dating anybody.”

One smacked on her head. “Idiot! Just because he hasn’t publicly announced his relationship doesn’t mean that he isn’t in one. Celebrities hide their relationships all the time.”

“And there are countless of girls after him. Do you see this crowd? This isn’t even the start. Many fans must be watching this show on TV who couldn’t get the tickets. Why do you think he will choose you out of the millions of girls lining up after him? I am sure he is getting confessions every single day.”

One of them snorted. “Do you think you will get the chance to even go near him? None of the fans are allowed to go near the celebrity’s room. We can only watch him from afar,” she sighed.

But the girl was adamant. “Just you wait! I will not give up. I will definitely find my chance and confess to him!”

After the fashion show got over, Yukito changed his appearance into something completely opposite. He was dazzling like a star on the stage until a few minutes ago, but now he wore such baggy and old clothes and looked as if nobody would even recognize him in the crowd.

He exited the building from the backside.

“Phew. Those media reporters would have eaten my head with all their non-stop questions. Don’t get me even started on those camera flashes.”

But he felt guilty for his manager, Yang Tian.

Ah, he must be searching for me everywhere.

He could already imagine him burning in a sea of fire with veins popping on his head in anger.

For a famous model and celebrity like him to go off on his own always made Yang Tian break in sweat.

What if somebody recognized him?

What if a paparazzi was lurking around and clicked his pictures to defame him?

What if a rival had something planned against him?

What if there was a stalker?

Yukito was sure that Yang Tian would grill him with all these what-ifs tomorrow first thing in the morning.

He shrugged.

I will apologize to him tomorrow.

Yukito put his hands in the pockets of his coat and started walking.

“Umm…wait!”

Yukito suddenly stopped. It was a girl’s voice from behind him.

“You are Yukito, right?” she asked, a little breathless.

He cursed himself.

Damn. How did she recognize me? I practically look like a beggar now!

With all the trouble the girl took to find him here, Yukito already knew what it would be about.

It wasn’t like he didn’t appreciate his fan’s feelings, but every girl only ever confessed to him, mistaking their feelings for love.

Being a fan and being in love were two different things and fans always mistook their crushes as if they really loved Yukito like a partner. Yukito wasn’t as cold and heartless as Jinhai when it came to the feelings of other girls.

Jinhai never bothered with any other woman, but Yukito wasn’t like that.

So, when he rejects any girl, it does make him feel guilty for breaking their hearts. He knew all celebrities’ lives were like that, but he still couldn’t get used to this part of the glamor.

Yukito cleared his throat and spoke in a heavier voice to change his speech. “You are mistaken. Who are you even talking about?”

The girl said, “I know I am right! You are Yukito.”

“Yukito who?”

“Even if you change your clothes or voice, I still recognize you. I know you are uncomfortable dealing with all those media reporters, so I thought you might try to escape, hiding from them. I wasn’t sure, but I still took my chance.”

“You are really mistaken. I need to be somewhere. Goodbye.”

The girl quickly said, “Please listen to what I have to say. I may never get this chance again. It’s so hard to meet you after all.”

Ah, Yang Tian will kill me if he gets to know about this…Better that I don’t mention this to him tomorrow.

Yukito took his glasses off and turned.

The girl’s smile brightened. “I knew it!” Then she suddenly got a little nervous. Her cheeks flushed red.

“I-I am Fu Mina. I am your big fan ever since you became a model, and I…I came here to say…that I-I really like you…”

“I already knew what you were going to say,” Yukito said.

She was taken aback a little.

“Media is not the only reason why I go from the backside. This is the other part. Confessions.”

He sighed. “Fu Mina. Thank you so much for your feelings. I appreciate it. But I am really sorry. I cannot return them.”

Fu Mina hastily urged. “P-please don’t reject me so quickly! I-I just want a chance…”

“Do you realize how many girls are after him? If he starts giving relationship chances to everyone, then there will be no end of it.”

A harsh icy voice came from the shadows, and a man slowly stepped out of it, walking slowly. The temperature dropped by a few degrees, and Fu Mina suddenly felt chilly.

She was shocked to see the man in front of her.

Yukito froze. There was no way he wouldn’t recognize that voice.

Ah, here comes another trouble, Yukito thought.
