Shen Yubai. The youngest actor in the entertainment industry, he has been in the industry for eight years, has zero scandals, and his acting skills are legendary. He just won the Best Actor at the International Film Festival last year. His posters have been plastered all over the city, and I have watched his movies countless times.
But now, he is sitting across from me, here for a blind date.
"You..." I opened my mouth, but my mind went blank.
"It's me." Shen Yubai didn't seem surprised by my reaction. He took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of deep eyes, "Sorry, this outfit is necessary. If you are photographed, it will bring you trouble."
It took me ten seconds to find my voice: "Mr. Shen, are you... In the wrong place? Or is this some kind of prank show?"
Shen Yubai shook his head slightly, took out a small dark blue notebook from the inner pocket of his windbreaker, and placed it on the table.
Household registration book.
I stared at the small book and then looked up at him, completely unable to understand the current situation.
"Ms. Lin, I'll keep my story short." Shen Yubai leaned forward slightly and lowered his voice, "I am thirty years old this year, and my family is very pressing for marriage. I have a special profession and need a nominal partner to deal with public opinion and family pressure. After screening, you have the most suitable background - a stable job, a simple social circle, and no complicated emotional entanglements."
"Screening?" I caught the word.
"I asked a friend to do a preliminary understanding." He was surprisingly candid. "You are an editor at Star City Publishing House. You live alone, raise a cat, go to the gym three times a week, and like watching old movies and baking. Your parents live in your hometown and have a harmonious relationship."
My back felt cold: "Are you investigating me?"
