The Security Guard Who Won the Heart of the Unattainable Actress - Chapter 5

Chapter 5

“People are all here. I’ll make this brief.”

“The Apple TV survival-and-decryption variety show has chosen our complex as its filming location. The crew will be arriving tomorrow. Our security team must cooperate with everyone’s work in all aspects and be responsible for maintaining safety on set,” Liu Limin said. “I’ve called you here today just to give you a heads-up. This is an all-star variety show, so pay attention when the time comes!”

“Who’s in it?” someone asked curiously.

“The specific arrangements will only be available tomorrow. The crew will bring all the guests to check out the location and have a simple meeting,” Liu Limin said. “We’ll also have an arrangement meeting tomorrow when they arrive.”

“Oh…”

After finishing the official business, Liu Limin’s tone shifted, and he praised Li Guang again. At this moment, Li Guang was actually still thinking about the fact that she was going to meet Ran Mingyue later.

When her name was called, she still looked embarrassed, and a small dimple appeared on her left cheek when she smiled.

She knew she was distracted and felt guilty, and her ears even turned red at the tips.

She was not good at hiding her emotions. When she was proud, she was truly proud, like a kitten with its tail wagging, completely content.

When she left the meeting room, Li Guang found that the time was much shorter than she had expected.

She thought the meeting would last an hour or so, but it ended in less than ten minutes.

So, what should she do now? Should she go find Ran Mingyue?

“Xiao Li, did you know?”

As soon as they returned to the security office, Chai Ning lowered his voice mysteriously: “The guests have actually already been confirmed. They’re the same cardboard cutouts we placed in the complex before. Especially Ran Mingyue; she is the absolute biggest star.”

The only cardboard cutouts Li Guang could remember were Ran Mingyue and Jiang Qiaoye.

“I think it’s the first time Teacher Ran is participating in a variety show,” Li Guang mused. “I can’t believe she has time for a variety show…”

Chai Ning said, “Aren’t you a fan of Teacher Ran? You don’t know this? She just finished filming her last movie and is on a break. They say she took this variety show to increase her national recognition.”

Li Guang realized that Chai Ning was truly a source of information.

He knew so much!

“I asked Manager Li this morning. This is real first-hand news. Our security team is going to be responsible for the security work for this variety show. And when they are filming, each guest will have a security guard with them.”

“Are you saying…” Li Guang was stunned.

“Yes! That’s right! A one-on-one personal security guard! What a great opportunity for a fan!” Chai Ning said. “You must fight for it. This way, you can see Teacher Ran up close.”

“No, no, that won’t work, absolutely not.” Li Guang refused repeatedly, thinking of her disbanded fan group.

After that incident, Li Guang learned her lesson and knew that a small artist like herself shouldn’t even mention Ran Mingyue’s name.

It was already a big enough coincidence that she became a security guard in Ran Mingyue’s villa complex. After this, she really didn’t dare to have any more coincidences.

She must avoid suspicion—the kind where she avoids it unilaterally.

So, Ran Mingyue was on vacation at home right now.

She didn’t have a shift in the afternoon, so she wandered around the complex.

When she looked up again, she found herself standing near Building 1 in Area A.

She felt her pocket, where her three hundred yuan bonus was.

She felt a little underprepared… maybe she should go back first.

Li Guang had just turned around when someone tapped her on the shoulder.

“Don’t move!”

Li Guang subconsciously wanted to give the person an over-the-shoulder throw. A voice in her head reminded her that the voice was a little familiar. She turned her head in a panic, and Wen Yingzhi appeared in her line of sight, wearing a white jasmine cheongsam.

She was still on the phone, “I just caught a sneaky kid at your front door.”

“Misunderstanding, it’s a misunderstanding—” Li Guang tried to run away, but it was too late. Ran Mingyue had already opened the courtyard gate and walked out. “Li Guang?”

Ran Mingyue looked at Li Guang up and down. “Are you done with your work?”

Li Guang said “ah,” and couldn’t move her feet forward.

Ran Mingyue said, “Then let’s go. It’s about time to eat dinner.”

Wen Yingzhi said, “…It’s not even close.”

Li Guang still didn’t know how she and Ran Mingyue, who had a 0.2 yuan debt relationship, suddenly became dinner companions.

Oh, this.

But she couldn’t argue. She felt that everything Ran Mingyue said was right.

At this moment, Li Guang’s little brain only had one of her onboarding training principles:

“Everything is for the residents!”

That’s right. Thinking this way, Li Guang’s logic became clear, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

“Teacher Ran, then let’s go. Where do you want to eat?”

Ran Mingyue was actually quite bothered by this address, but she couldn’t resist Li Guang’s smile, and she involuntarily curved her lips into a very faint smile.

“Somewhere nearby. You helped me yesterday, and it’s right that I should thank you.”

Wen Yingzhi said, “What about me?”

“Teacher Wen, are you coming too?” Li Guang called out “teacher” fluently. She finally remembered that Wen Yingzhi was also one of the cardboard cutouts that everyone had put up on the day she joined.

It seemed she was also one of the guests.

“She’s not coming,” Ran Mingyue said bluntly, with a decisive air of not caring about her friend’s well-being. Wen Yingzhi sneered. She finally saw Ran Mingyue’s unusual behavior.

Ran Mingyue, you finally have a day like this!

“Go on, you two eat. This is the perfect time for Mingyue to eat, Xiao Li,” Wen Yingzhi said. “Ran Mingyue eats six meals a day. If she misses one, she’ll feel uncomfortable and anxious. You guys go eat. Don’t mind me.”

Li Guang said, “Teacher Ran, do you have low blood sugar? Let’s go eat quickly.”

Ran Mingyue said, “…I have high blood pressure,” especially when Li Guang addressed her so distantly. But then she noticed that Li Guang addressed Wen Yingzhi the same way, so she felt a little more at ease.

This was Li Guang’s first time eating with a big celebrity. She waited on the side for Ran Mingyue to put on her mask and sunglasses before they walked out together.

She kept a polite distance from Ran Mingyue.

“Teacher Ran, about that 0.2 yuan transfer, actually…” she didn’t have to be so formal.

Before she could finish, Ran Mingyue turned her head slightly: “Why did you transfer money to me?”

Li Guang choked, then said calmly, “The cat transferred it.”

“Is that so?”

Ran Mingyue’s voice paused slightly, her delicate eyelashes fluttered, and she suddenly turned her gaze. Li Guang’s discreet glance was caught in the act. Her heart inexplicably clenched, but she didn’t know how to dodge. Her feet suddenly tangled, with her left foot on her right and her right foot tripping her left.

Ran Mingyue let out a soft laugh and helped Li Guang up, the distance between them disappearing instantly.

“Watch your step.”

Hearing Ran Mingyue’s voice next to her ear, Li Guang didn’t dare to look at those bright eyes this time.

So embarrassing, so embarrassing.

The embarrassment of almost falling over because she was stunned by Ran Mingyue’s beauty—

Before they even left the complex, Chai Ning ran out swinging his baton. “Xiao Li! Xiao Li!”

“You came at the right time. Can you cover for me for two hours? My balcony at home is leaking, and I need to go back and fix it.” Chai Ning’s voice was urgent, and he didn’t forget to greet Ran Mingyue. “Teacher Ran, you’re here too? Where are you going?”

Li Guang and Chai Ning looked at each other for a few seconds. The simple Chai Ning couldn’t read the meaning in Li Guang’s eyes.

“Teacher Ran, I…” Li Guang could only turn to look at Ran Mingyue. Ran Mingyue, whose mind was as clear as day, understood the difficult-to-refuse look in Li Guang’s eyes, and she nodded: “Go on, get busy.”

“Teacher Ran, you’re such a good person,” Li Guang praised her sincerely, without thinking too much.

Then, she and Chai Ning said their goodbyes enthusiastically: “Have a safe trip, resident!”

Ran Mingyue: “…”

After Ran Mingyue walked back by herself, Chai Ning also scratched the back of his head. “Is Teacher Ran unhappy?”

“How could she be?” Li Guang looked at the figure in the monitor. “Teacher Ran would never hold it against us.”

Chai Ning said, “Yeah, you’re right. By the way, I have something to tell you. After the facial recognition system was upgraded, some residents’ faces can’t be scanned. If that happens, you need to tell the resident to go back to the property management office to re-register.”

“Okay, okay.” The proactive Li Guang saw her colleague off and stuck to her post for an hour and a half, and then—

Her stomach rumbled.

So hungry.

Why was she so hungry?

Perhaps she was already planning to digest food when she was about to go out with Ran Mingyue, so now she was getting hungry so fast.

But she was covering for Brother Chai, and it was also Li Guang’s time to be on duty, so she didn’t have time to eat.

She could order takeout, but Li Guang only had cash.

The light of early winter fell, and the clouds were sprinkled with gold. The sun was quietly saying goodbye.

The resident of Building 1 in Area A opened the gate.

Ran Mingyue’s black hair was tied in a gentle ponytail behind her. The sleeves of her shirt were neatly folded up a few times. Her rich eyebrows and eyes were illuminated by a dazzling layer of light in the setting sun. She handed a small box in her hand to Wen Yingzhi.

But Wen Yingzhi didn’t accept it and pushed the box back into Ran Mingyue’s hand, seeming to say something.

Ran Mingyue handed the box back and walked inside. Wen Yingzhi grabbed her, her hand on Ran Mingyue’s shoulder.

Li Guang, sitting in the security office, was so idle she could pick her feet. Her gaze kept swaying between her phone screen and the banner on the wall until it settled on the surveillance feed of Area A.

What were Teacher Ran and Teacher Wen doing?

Li Guang leaned forward curiously to get a closer look.

It seemed that Wen Yingzhi and Ran Mingyue were arguing. Wen Yingzhi had her back to the camera and was repeatedly pushing Ran Mingyue, and she seemed quite angry.

Li Guang picked up her baton and ran out.

Breaking up a fight was the duty of a good security guard.

“Stop fighting! Stop fighting!” Li Guang shouted loudly as she ran. Area A was very close, and she arrived immediately.

Just as Li Guang appeared, Wen Yingzhi’s hand was already on Ran Mingyue’s shoulder, about to push her back.

Li Guang moved like lightning to stand in front of Ran Mingyue, blocking her. Her eyes were wide open: “Teacher Wen, why are you like this!”

“What am I like?” Wen Yingzhi laughed and shook the box in her hand at Li Guang. “What do you think this is?”

Li Guang said loudly, “Even so, you can’t hit someone!”

The four sides of the box were transparent. Li Guang saw the delicate and beautiful 4-inch small cake.

Ah… dessert. Now her stomach was even hungrier.

Ran Mingyue was about to speak, but Wen Yingzhi spoke first:

“Ran Mingyue asked me to give this to a cat. Where am I supposed to find a cat?” She glanced at the little, curly strands of hair on top of Li Guang’s head and, with Ran Mingyue’s murderous glare on her, said, “That cat is also curly-haired. Have you ever seen one?”

Ran Mingyue: .
