Xia Yu took a deep breath as she looked out the window. Her heartbeat accelerated as they were approaching closer to the entrance.

From distance, Xia Yu could see the blinding flashes. At the side, the fans stood to cheer for their idol.

Thinking that she will have to walk on the red carpet and face the people made her anxious again.

Xia Yu could still remember how the group of paparazzi had rushed forward to snap a few pictures of her. Then, the unreasonable fans had throw some spoiled food at her.

Suddenly, she was afraid that the same thing would happen again. If someone came to her and threw some food at her again, then…

Huo Yun Chen’s warm hand clasped hers tightly. Just like that, the fear that surrounded her had gradually dissipated.

“It will be fine,” Huo Yun Chen assured her. “I’m here.”

The car finally pulled over to drop them off. Huo Yun Chen alighted from the car. Some of the photographers had noticed his presence and began to aim their camera in his direction.

This was the first time that Huo Yun Chen had appeared in public after it was revealed that Yan Yi Xie had hired thugs to harm him.

Previously, the reporters have been camping outside his apartment building as well as at the agency to interview him. However, Huo Yun Chen seemed to be missing from their radar and no one knew where he had gone to.

Because of his disappearance, there were rumors that Huo Yun Chen became depressed upon knowing that Yan Yi Xie had tried to harm him. There were also rumors that he was planning to retire from the industry.

Some of them were speculating that Huo Yun Chen might not show up at the award even though he had a few nominations.

Now that they see him coming, the reporters were eager to interview him.

Noticing that the man was not walking over. A few of them began to whisper, wondering what was going on.

A pair of long legs in high heels appeared in their view.

Seeing this view, the photographer began to get excited.

Huo Yun Chen usually appeared in an event like this alone or with his manager. Seeing a woman come out of the car made them excited.

“Huo Yun Chen came with a woman!” These were the words that everyone was whispering around. Suddenly, everyone turned their camera in their direction. Everyone wanted to snap some pictures and grabbed this news.

The question was, who was this woman, and what was her relationship with Huo Yun Chen?

Some of them recalled that the NEXT Group was in the middle of preparing some new talent to debut with their entertainment agency. In the beginning, many had thought that Huo Yun Chen was taking a junior to this award and let her borrow his popularity.

Because of her makeup, the others were unable to recognize her until someone pointed out that the woman looked familiar.

“Isn’t that Miss Xia? Huo Yun Chen’s girlfriend?”

“Eh? Now that you mentioned it, she does look like Miss Xia.”

Some of the reporters who have been following Huo Yun Chen’s dating news were quick to remember her. After all, they have been camping out of Huo Yun Chen’s apartment, wanting to take some photos of them together.

Soon, the news that Huo Yun Chen had arrived at the Top Music Award spread around. The news came out and the netizen who has been following this award began to talk about this news.

Meanwhile, Xia Yu could feel her hands grow colder as she faced the flashes. To have people taking her pictures and watching her every move made her feel anxious.

“Xia Yu.”

In the midst of the noise all around, Xia Yu could hear Huo Yun Chen’s voice. She raised her head to look at him and saw his assuring gaze.

“It will be alright. Just take a deep breath.”

Xia Yu nodded. Holding on to his arm, the two of them began to walk on the red carpet. All around her, Xia Yu could see the bright light and heard voices, calling their name to look their way.

Huo Yun Chen would whisper to her, telling her what she should do and where to look at. His hand which was rested on her bare back felt a little hot.

Once they arrived at the end of the carpet, Xia Yu finally let out a breath in relief.

However, everything hasn’t ended yet.

The host walked over with a bright smile on his face and a microphone in his hand. He nodded to Huo Yun Chen before moving his gaze all over Xia Yu’s body.

Huo Yun Chen’s hand on her back moved lower until it rested on her waist. He pulled her closer to him as if to announce that this beautiful girl belonged to him.

The host coughed when he met Huo Yun Chen’s warning gaze. He put on his professional smile and exchanged a few pleasantries with the celebrity.

“Huo Yun Chen, you attend this award with a partner this time. There are a lot of people who are curious about the identity of this lady here.”

“Mmm…” Huo Yun Chen glanced at his girlfriend and smiled. “This is my girlfriend, Xia Yu.”

The host was not surprised by his answer as the others had already given him the heads up.

“Seeing that you came with your girlfriend this time, I am guessing that the two of you are in a serious relationship. Can we expect good news soon?”

Huo Yun Chen laughed. “Well, if there’s any good news, I will announce it through my agency.”

“This time, you are nominated for the best male singer as well as for the best album,” the host quickly changed the focus of his question as there was still a long line of celebrities waiting for their turn. “How confident are you this time?”

“My team and I have already worked hard and did our best on that album,” Huo Yun Chen answered. “This time, I will hand it over to the professional judge to make their decision.” He flashed a polite smile to the host before someone came over and ushered him into the hall.

Once they were out of the crowd, Xia Yu finally heaved in relief.

“Are you alright?”

She raised her head and nodded.

Huo Yun Chen laughed as he hold her hand. “Your hands are cold. Nervous?”

“This is the first time I’ve done something like this. Of course, I’m nervous.”

“Xia Yu.”

“Ah?”

Huo Yun Chen leaned over to peck at her forehead. “You have done a very good job.”

His girlfriend had worked hard to enter his life and his world.. For this, Huo Yun Chen was extremely happy.
