Qiyao recalled what her parents and Yuqing had said. It was as if she and
Jingsheng were already together.
However, they didn’t even know anything about Jingsheng.
Qiyao wasn’t so thick-skinned. It looked like she was secretly thinking about Jingsheng.
Qiyao was suddenly too embarrassed to continue talking to him.
She hurriedly said goodbye and hung up the phone.
Jingsheng was caught off guard.
He stared at his phone in a daze and did not react for a long time.
After a long while, Jingsheng blinked and couldn’t help but wonder if he had said something wrong.
Did he make Qiyao angry?
She hung up after saying a few words to him.
Jingsheng thought about it and sent Qiyao a WeChat message. [Are you angry?] Qiyao was a little confused when she saw the WeChat message from Jingsheng.
Qiyao: [No, why would you ask that?]
Jingsheng glanced at it and thought for a few seconds before replying, [No, I’m just worried that I said something wrong just now and made you unhappy. Talking to Uncle and Aunty all of a sudden made me a little nervous.]
Qiyao thought to herself that she didn’t see any signs of nervousness from Jingsheng.
Qiyao: [I think you did just fine. It’s more on my end to suddenly have you talk to my parents.]
Jingsheng’s heart sank slightly. Why did Qiyao suddenly become so polite?
Jingsheng: [How could that be?]
He wanted to say that he would eventually have to talk to her parents anyway.
However, he deleted this sentence.
Instead, he said, “It’s fine.”
What’s “fine” exactly?
Qiyao didn’t reply. She didn’t know how to reply.
After parting ways with Qiyao and Jingsheng, Jiang Xun and Mufeng went straight home.
With Jiang Xun’s current popularity, it was no longer convenient for her to eat out.
Moreover, there were many people outside. It was better for the two of them to go home and have some alone time.
Because Mufeng had appeared at the live venue, this trending topic had been hanging at the second spot.
It was just his name alone.
There was also Jiang Xun singing and dancing.
And Jinghseng releasing his new song.
The two trending searches were both higher than “Superpower 1 to 1.”
Youlan had originally thought that she would gain quite a bit of popularity this time.
She had even taken a different approach. The company had even discussed it before. If she were to be friends with Jiang Xun again and create a “good friends image,” it would not yield good results.
Whether or not Jiang Xun would cooperate was another matter.
It would be better to directly market the relationship between Youlan and Jiang Xun as fated enemies, constantly competing against each other.
This way, as long as Jiang Xun became popular or was mentioned by others for some reason, Youlan would definitely be mentioned as well.
It was as if Youlan was sucking Jiang Xun’s popularity like a vampire.
Youlan’s company had planned everything out, but now, Jiang Xun and Mufeng were clearly on the trending searches while Youlan had nothing to do with them.
No one mentioned her at all.
Even Jiang Xun’s poll was trending.
Whether it was fans, antis, or passersby, everyone was actively participating in the voting.
Fans and passers-by were arguing with the antis.
As a result, the popularity of this poll actually rose all the way from the original 20th place to the first place.
Everyone was busy discussing Jiang Xun’s performance and proving that she was qualified to be a mentor. They had completely forgotten about the fact that Youlan’s dance was not that good.
This was the first time Youlan had received such a cold reception ever since she entered the industry.
It even made her wonder if she had made a mistake.
“Sister Yuan,” Youlan called Sister Yuan.
Sister Yuan sighed silently.
She felt a headache whenever she received a call from Youlan.
For Youlan to come looking for her at this hour, it must be because of Jiang
Xun.
Nowadays, whenever Youlan came looking for her because of Jiang Xun, Sister Yuan would have a headache and feel stifled. She even felt depressed because she didn’t want to face reality.
Sister Yuan sighed again. “Youlan, what’s the matter? Why aren’t you sleeping at this hour? You still have to shoot the commercial tomorrow, so you have to be in good condition. Don’t have dark circles under your eyes. It’s even worse if your face gets pimples or puffiness from staying up all night. Although we can retouch the photos, the crew members might not keep their mouths shut. If they reveal that your skin isn’t as good as it appears in the pictures, it won’t be good for you.”
“I know. I’m just about to sleep.” Youlan was a little impatient. How could she sleep now? “Did you see the poll that Jiang Xun initiated? I just used my alternate account to vote for not qualified, and then I saw her voting results. More and more people voted for her, and the difference between the number of votes of her being qualified and the number of votes of her not being qualified is getting bigger and bigger.”
Sister Yuan thought, so what?
What do you want to do now?
“Why are you paying attention to her poll?” Sister Yuan was really helpless. “Even if she wins and makes the antis apologize, it has nothing to do with us.
It’s not like vou’re on the same show as her. Moreover. even if vou were participating in the same program, it wouldn’t matter much.”
“I just can’t stand to see her win.” Youlan gritted her teeth and said, “Hasn’t she been in the limelight enough? Why does she always win? Why? I just want to see her fail.’
“Then what do you want to do?” Sister Yuan asked again. She couldn’t be bothered with Youlan anymore.
She would let Youlan decide for herself.
If Youlan was going to court her own death, then she would just take it as losing Youlan as an artist.
There were so many young people trying to enter the entertainment industry. Was she afraid that she wouldn’t be able to find a better replacement?
If Youlan succeeded, then she would have profited.
But if she failed, she would not lose out.
Since Youlan had made the request herself, she would let Youlan think of a way to fulfill it. If Youlan needed help or connections, she could act as the intermediary, but the money had to be paid by Youlan.
The company wouldn’t be the one to shoulder this burden.
“I want to get someone to boost the votes against her and vote that she’s not qualified to be a mentor.” Youlan laughed coldly. “She agreed to the bet herself. She was also the one who opened the poll and asked everyone to vote. I’d like to see if the result is the opposite of what she thinks. Will she have to apologize and withdraw from “Blazing Talents!”, according to the bet?”
“She always said that she keeps her words, values integrity and does what she says. She even made antis do what they said. If they didn’t apologize, she would post their ID and ask them to apologize. Now it’s her turn. She has to keep her word! Otherwise, her character will collapse. I want to see who still has the face to praise her for being honest. If you dare to bet, you must do what you say!”
Needless to say, Sister Yuan felt that Youlan’s idea was indeed feasible, and there was a high possibility that it would succeed.
However, Sister Yuan still said, “Okay, if you want to find people, I can help you contact them. However, you have to pay for the troll army yourself..”
