Even a lifetime of evil deeds would make us even

Chi An looked at the people pointing large cameras at them, gently raised his hand, and pressed the hat firmly onto Chi Shuran's head.

These crew members had clearly spotted their van before running over together. They probably hadn't caught Chi Shuran's face or his yet and likely didn't know who they were.

Fortunately, most of the fans were inside the airport and wouldn't notice them here anytime soon.

"Why have you started filming already?"

Sister Wang frowned deeply and stood in front of Chi Shuran and Chi An, expressing her displeasure at this sudden filming through both her actions and her unhappy tone.

The crew seemed somewhat caught off guard by Sister Wang's question. They exchanged a glance, and one of them stepped forward to explain, "We can't record on the plane. The director plans to shoot some footage to air first, then start the livestream after we land."

Shoot footage to air first?

Chi An looked toward the group ahead and understood.

This director's a shrewd one. He knows to build buzz before the livestream. That person up ahead is probably another guest. If they happen to have had a conflict with Chi Shuran, wouldn't running into each other give everyone something to talk about?

Scoffing inwardly, Chi An glanced toward the less crowded side and came up with an idea.

Inside the airport terminal, a man and a woman walking toward the boarding gate were particularly eye-catching. Fashionably dressed, they walked with confident, unhurried strides, each pulling a suitcase as though they were on a runway.

They wore oversized sunglasses that covered the upper halves of their faces, but those couldn't hide their good looks, making people wonder just how stunning their full faces must be.

People around them cast curious and admiring looks their way. Some took out their phones to sneak photos, while several girls whispered among themselves nearby.

"Look at that guy. He's insanely hot! Those legs are longer than my lifespan!" one girl exclaimed quietly, unable to hold back her praise.

"The girl next to him is gorgeous too. She looks like a celebrity, but I suddenly can't remember who."

"Isn't there a variety show filming around now? They've already announced the guests. Why do I feel like... that girl looks so much like Chi Shuran?"

Hearing the chatter around them, Chi Shuran's heart tightened slightly, and she instinctively turned to look at Chi An.

Noticing her distraction, Chi An reminded her softly, "Look ahead. If you don't want to be spotted, pretend you didn't hear anything and keep walking."

Chi Shuran nodded almost imperceptibly, composed herself again, and continued keeping pace with Chi An.

It had to be said, this director knew how to play. They had originally thought he had arranged a hidden task here, but it turned out they only had to cross the airport terminal and successfully board the plane without having their identities discovered.

The task looked difficult, and it wasn't easy, either. Given who Chi Shuran was and how much hate she received, people could recognize her from half her face. This director certainly had a few tricks.

Ah, thank goodness she has someone as smart as me around. If Chi Shuran did this task alone, her haters would be claiming she used to be a thief by tomorrow.

Sometimes I really have to thank Mom and Dad for passing all their intelligence on to me.

"The more I look at her, the more I think she's Chi Shuran. Wasn't she on the guest list announced yesterday? That has to be her!!!"

"There's no way I'd mistake her! She's the only person in the entertainment industry who dares stir up dating rumors with my idol!"

"Exactly! My idol too! He's had a spotless record since his debut, and then she came along as his rumored girlfriend!"

"Your idols have nothing on mine! My girl's the one who really suffered! She was just being kind and saying hello, and that woman actually tripped her onto the ground!"

"But Chi Shuran must know what her reputation is, right? Would she dare show up this openly? With such a gorgeous guy next to her, too."

Seeing the people around them slowly closing in, Chi Shuran grabbed Chi An's arm, grinding her teeth in anger.

She'd said they couldn't just walk out in the open like this!

Who could forget a face as beautiful as hers?! And Chi An had actually made her walk out like this! Even screwing over your little sister had to have limits!

"Chi An, you really are my dear brother. If I get beaten up, just you wait!"

"I'm running first in a minute. Cover me! That's what you get for coming up with this lousy idea!"

"What the hell? You're running first? You're fucking running first, and you still want me to cover you?!"

He had originally planned to resolve the situation with some dignity, but after hearing Chi Shuran's remarks, Chi An said incredulously, "That's a first for me. You really are something."

Dignity, with that attitude?! To hell with dignity!

Chi An turned to look at Chi Shuran's face with a smile. "Dear little sister, you're done for. Your big brother is about to get his revenge."

"Chi, Chi An, don't smile-"

Faced with Chi An's smiling face, Chi Shuran immediately shrank back in fear and unconsciously retreated two steps. "I-it was your lousy idea in the first place. I have so many haters, and you still made me come out like this. It was your fault to begin with!"

Although she was afraid, Chi Shuran remained stubborn and kept babbling.

Just as the crowd was about to reach them, Chi An straightened the sunglasses on Chi Shuran's face, then let out a thunderous roar. "Wang Erni! This is all your fault! Look at everyone around us!"

"I told you ages ago not to make yourself look so much like her! Look at you! Every time you go out, people mistake you for Chi Shuran! Do you have any idea how much trouble you've caused?!"

"Have you forgotten what the older brother of the friend of the youngest sister of the second paternal aunt of the male cousin of our uncle's second maternal aunt said last time?! Chi Shuran isn't a good celebrity! She's covered in scandals! Get surgery to look like her, and you'd better watch out for people throwing dog shit at you when you go out!"

"I'm telling you! I've already borrowed the money this time. You're getting that ugly face changed back! If this happens again, don't even think about coming home!"

"With a sister like you, even a lifetime of evil deeds would make us even!"

"Do you know how much the family has spent to get your face changed back? Even a burglar breaking into our home now would have to leave six yuan behind!"

The manager and assistant standing out of sight silently lowered their phones at this scene. They had been thinking they should hurry and call the police in case a fight broke out, but then...

"Sister Wang, is Sister Shuran's brother... actually like this?"

The young assistant wore an indescribable expression, seemingly never having expected such a handsome man to make up such ridiculous things.

"She mentioned it before. She said her brother's favorite hobby was making things up. I thought Ranran was talking nonsense before, but now... I believe her."

Sister Wang couldn't offer a reasonable explanation either. Although she knew a biological brother wouldn't hurt his little sister, this solution was still a little hard to accept.

This wasn't merely making things up. It was pure nonsense, spouted at the drop of a hat.
