Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2161

When Annabeth Cates logged into Weibo, she noticed that she and Josh Batton appeared on the list of hot topics again, occupying the number one spot.

'#Josh Batton and Annabeth Cates chased on the streets#'

Upon clicking on the topic, there were numerous posts from marketing accounts, showing videos of Josh carrying her as he ran through the shopping mall and streets.

In the videos, a large number of people were following behind them as they sped ahead.

Sounds of people screaming nearly drowned out everything else.

From the videos, it seemed like there were even more people than they'd thought.

It was a disturbing sight as she watched the videos, unable to imagine what could happen if they were really surrounded by those people.

There were many versions of videos taken from different angles, but they only captured their backs and the sides of their faces.

Even so, Josh still looked very handsome in them.

He was like a star that shone brightly even without any editing.

He still looked attractive even though his face was mostly hidden.

His charisma and physique were enough to captivate anyone who watched the video.

The marketing accounts wrote the same captions on each video, explaining when and where Annabeth and Josh showed up and how people chased after them frantically on the streets. Numerous people responded to each video-

"Erm, I can't understand this. Why won't people let Josh and Annabeth shop in peace?"

"It looks like Josh brought Annabeth home to visit her parents. Can't you let them exist in peace? Must you all surround them like that?"

"Oh my god! Annabeth is pregnant. What if Josh slips and falls while carrying her? Are you all aware of the consequences? Will any of you be responsible for the loss of their child?"

"As one of Josh's fans, I truly feel sorry for him. He can't even have a moment of peace!"

"Am I the only person paying attention to Josh's thighs? I must say, he has great thighs!"

"As a random netizen, I can sense how Annabeth is even through the screen. Josh is awesome. He's such a strong man!"

"He's truly a role model in the entertainment industry. Nobody can be better than him. I wish I were Annabeth."

Bobby Cates and Peggy Howards instantly stood up to have a better view of her phone from behind when they heard the sounds coming from the video. "What's going on?" they asked simultaneously.

Annabeth regained her composure before showing the footage, invoking gloomy expressions on her parents' faces in an instant.

Meanwhile, Josh continued to eat calmly and didn't seem to mind.

"Oh my god! Are these people crazy?" Bobby exclaimed in horror.

"You both went through this? How did they recognize you? You were already well disguised," Peggy spoke up.

"Yes, I couldn't even recognize Josh myself," her husband said.

Annabeth shrugged nonchalantly. "You two might not be aware of this, but Josh's fans can recognize him by the back of his head."

Bobby and Peggy were speechless, feeling so out of touch at that moment.

How could something like this happen?

Peggy nodded to show that she understood. "Yeah, perhaps so. Being a fan isn't easy."

With that, she turned to look at Josh with sorrowful eyes. "Josh, life isn't easy for you at all."

He had gotten used to this long ago and had developed an open-minded attitude towards it.

"Yeah, what you said made sense, but we still feel sorry for you," Bobby sighed helplessly.

"There's nothing to feel sorry for.

I also earn a lot more," Josh told

them.
