I'm only trying to find out more about this woman. All these efforts are all for a successful plan. Nothing more than that.
Lu Zhengya brainwashed himself with his unbelievable excuses. At the same time, his hands smoothly saved every single detail regarding Jinli that he could find on Weibo.
Oh? These Netizens are so efficient and talented.
In the short few hours, several stickers based on Jinli's expressions had been freshly made.
Jinli looking at her hand mirror: [Ah! The Charming Goddess is beautiful as always.jpg]
Sleeping Jinli leaning on the car window: [A Goddess's Sleeping Face.jpg]
Dopy Jinli shaking her head: [Don't take Jinli away. jpg]
Numerous others were eve creatively created, branching from the scenes in the clip. Things like [Jinli doesn't taste good.jpg] [Can I buy Jinli for a dollar?.jpg]
Looking at the goodies, Lu Zhengya's lips curled in satisfaction. Greedily, his fingers clicked non-stop, swiftly adding each and every possible item into his collection. Suddenly he halted.
Stop, stop, stop!
His face darkened as his ice-cold eyes narrowed onto the comments.
[OMG My wife is the prettiest in the world!]
[Jinli! Do you want me to warm your bed for you?]
[ Ahhh! I'm lesbian for Jinli!]
Go to hell! This woman is mine!
His heart was filled to the brim with annoyance, cursing each commenter within. He scoured through each individual commenter. Looking at their profiles, he subconsciously compared them to himself.
Very quickly and easily, he came to a conclusion. In the entire country, he was unrivalled. Be it in age, appearance or power, no one could compare with him. He was confident of his supreme superiority. Unless this woman was blind, there was no way she would fall for another person. His mind fantasized about everything they could do together.
Ah! What a loving future we have before us…
Moments later, worry stirred within him.
Hmph! This woman has attracted so many worms and flies around her just after one show. What will happen after I pull her further up in popularity? Should I still do it?
As he pondered on his worry, he chuckled eerily to himself…
I guess it is expected of my lady… Her number of fans only serves to prove my superior eye for value.
...
"Knock! Knock! Knock!"
The sudden interruption shattered his train of thought.
Lu Zhengya's eyes flickered as his fingers swiftly moved to close all evidence of his obsession with Jinli. Calmly, he lifted his head, facing Bai Yan expressionlessly as he opened the door and entered.
"Sir, its time to go back and rest." Bai Yan was especially concerned as Lu Zhengya had pulled all-nighters consecutively.
"Got it."
Looking at the cold, stoic expression, Bai Yan couldn't help but sigh.
That's the Sir I know.
...
The next day…
Xu Zhiyi sent a text to the group chat with all the 6 guests after breakfast. She invited all members to meet at the cafe, claiming to have important news to share.
By the time Jinli arrived, everyone else was already waiting. Looking at the latest arrival, Xu Zhiyi's eyes rolled. Half-jokingly, she complained, "Oh my! Jinli! You are so slow! You got all of us to wait for you!"
Hearing the provocation, Lan Ting glanced over and whispered, "Didn't you just arrive as well?"
In return, Xu Zhiyi sent a silent, intimidating gaze. Breathing deeply, she controlled her annoyance. She could not afford to erupt with everyone present.
"Hahaha! Yiyi, didn't you say that you have important news?" Thankfully, He Ye's loud laughter quickly got the atmosphere under control.
In view of his decent relationship with Xu Zhiyi, he had to give favours. Forcing a smile on her face, Xu Zhiyi averted the awkwardness. "Yes, it's news about the programme!"
He Ye's eyes lit up brightly, praising her, "Yiyi, is it some insider news? This programme is notorious for its secrecy! How well informed you are!"
That praise lifted her mood way up high. "Well, of course! I'm not some good-for-nothing that only looks pretty on screen…" Xu Zhiyi insinuated as she laughed chirpily.
A blatant provocation
Caressing her pearl white skin, Jinli muttered sadly, "Alas, it's all your fault. Why did you grow up to be so beautiful? Now, you will always unintentionally enrage some children with inferiority complexes."
