Chapter 166 Finale (Part 2)

"burst!"

"A top star surnamed Xie's love affair has been exposed!"

At 11 o'clock in the evening, when netizens are surfing the Internet before going to bed, a well-known entertainment blogger with millions of fans suddenly released an explosive news.

The copy was extremely provocative: "A top star named Xie, whose fan base is in the nine figures, has his secret love affair exposed!"

"The target turned out to be that 'rich second generation' trainee from that talent show where the top star was the mentor, who also came from a wealthy family but was caught up in rumors about being a real or fake young master!"

"During the show, the top star surnamed Xie praised this trainee many times. He also took good care of this trainee. For example, when this trainee was injured, he personally took the trainee to the hospital. Therefore, during the broadcast of the show, the couple's CP was very popular."

"Especially the final mentor collaboration stage! The duet dance they performed together went viral at the time! Now it seems like it wasn't just a stage collaboration; it was a genuine outpouring of affection!"

"The blogger speculated that the two had already developed a crush on the show, and kept it a secret until the show was over..."

Two photos that were obviously taken from candid angles were also posted below.

A single stone caused a thousand ripples, and the internet exploded immediately.

"'A top-tier male celebrity surnamed Xie with a nine-digit fan following'? You might as well just give Xie Tinglan's ID number... What's the point of typing that? Besides Xie Tinglan, which other top-tier celebrity has a nine-digit fan following?"

"What?! Xie Tinglan is in love?!"

"Just date, why are you so surprised... My brother Xie isn't an idol, there's no requirement for him to date. He runs his own studio, and there's no company regulation forbidding him from dating. But the girl on the other side is a trainee... Oh, she hasn't debuted yet, so she's just an amateur, right? Then just date her..."

"Xie Tinglan's fans are so good at diverting attention! Is this a question of whether Xie Tinglan and that trainee are idols and can date? This is a question of the fairness of the show! If Xie Tinglan really started dating that trainee during the filming of the show, can the fairness of the show still be guaranteed? Is this fair to the other trainees?!"

"What's the deliberate rhetoric going on up there? It's like the mentors decide who stays and who gets eliminated on talent shows... Isn't it the fans and the audience who vote at the performances that decide whether a trainee stays? I thought mentors were just tools for teaching and commenting on talent shows, everyone knew that..."

"Exactly. And didn't that trainee ultimately fail to debut? I don't know why some people are reacting so strongly... Could it be that the fans are too incompetent to vote for their own brother to debut, so they're just trying to spread rumors about the fairness of the show?"

"Who said it wouldn't affect the fairness of the show? Everyone knows that the screen time on the show affects the trainees' popularity. Maybe Xie Dingliu had already negotiated with the production team on behalf of his sweetheart to give her more screen time..."

"If Xie Tinglan really had selfish motives, why didn't he just help his lover debut? Given Xie Tinglan's current status, if he asked for a backdoor spot, the production team wouldn't say no, right?"

"Because his partner's singing and dancing skills are so terrible... After realizing he's not suited to being an idol, he cut his losses immediately and earned enough screen time and traffic on the show. Then, he can make a solo debut with this wave of fans..."

The comment section was instantly flooded with fans, passersby, and black fans of Xie Tinglan or Xia Linxing, arguing, defending, cursing, watching the fun... The comment section was instantly in chaos.

Just when everyone was arguing fiercely, a comment was suddenly pushed to the top.

"Everyone, stop arguing. The photos released by this marketing account were taken by me. I'm asking you marketing accounts, can you please not steal other people's photos secretly? And those who said that Xia Linxing went to the program to gain popularity and traffic for her solo debut, can you please check my IP first before speaking?"

The netizens were a little confused and actually clicked on the blogger's account to take a look.

This blogger's IP is abroad. He is an authentic study abroad blogger. Judging from the school photos posted by the blogger on a daily basis, it is a famous art school abroad.

The image stolen by the marketing account was just a blogger's daily post: "Today, I saw a super cute boy in class. I originally planned to go up to him after class to ask for his contact information. But as soon as get out of class was over, I saw his boyfriend waiting at the door to pick him up after class. Oh, it turns out that all the pretty boys are already taken..."

The following pictures were obviously taken at random. There is the back of Xia Linxing in class, the silhouette of Xie Tinglan wearing a hat waiting at the door for Xia Linxing to finish class, and the back of the two of them talking and laughing while holding hands and leaving together.

Obviously, this study abroad blogger did not know Xia Linxing, nor did he recognize Xie Tinglan who was wearing a hat and rarely showed his face. He just casually recorded his daily life.

As a result, the two photos of the two holding hands were stolen by a marketing account.

The following comments are all "hahaha":

"It's hilarious... A bunch of people were outraged saying the two were involved in shady dealings on the show, saying Xia Linxing joined the show to gain traffic and debut solo, but it turns out she's not even working in the entertainment industry, hahaha..."

"Hot news, the art department at this university has a minimum program of five years, and no unexplained gaps are allowed. In other words, even if Xia Linxing wants to debut as these people say, it will be five years at the earliest. Five years of absence from the entertainment industry would be a waste of time, even for Xie Tinglan..."

"You marketing accounts don't even take Cheng Xuezhou's previous experience into consideration..."

"Everyone can start a moment of silence for this marketing account..."

"Ah? My village has internet access. Please give me some scientific information."

"It was probably a trainee named Cheng Xuezhou who found a marketing account to spread rumors that Xia Linxing was a fake young master of the Xia family. Then, this marketing account and Cheng Xuezhou were jointly sanctioned by Xia Linxing's family and Xie Tinglan's studio. Now this person has disappeared from the entertainment industry."

"With such a huge negative example right before our eyes, your marketing accounts are truly reckless..."

…

At this moment, Xia Linxing was abroad and took a screenshot of what netizens said about Cheng Xuezhou. He glanced at the teacher who was still teaching at the podium, secretly sent the screenshot to Xie Tinglan, and sent an emoticon of a little white rabbit with a question mark on its head to express his doubts.

Xie Tinglan replied quickly: "Well... because the Xia family has only publicly admitted that Shen Sibai is also a child of the Xia family, and has not said that you are not a child of the Xia family, so the Xia family can sue Cheng Xuezhou for spreading rumors."

"Is that so..." Xia Linxing supported his chin and replied with an emoticon.

Ever since running away from home last time and being quickly caught by Xie Tinglan, Xia Linxing was brought back home by Xie Tinglan. Xia's mother hugged Xia Linxing and cried for a long time, crying so hard that Xia Linxing was heartbroken and never dared to mention leaving again.

So, he returned to the Xia family again.

The only difference from before is that he has a brother and a lover who has found a bright future.

His new brother chose to continue developing in the entertainment industry, while Xia Linxing wanted to complete his studies that he had not completed in his previous life, so he chose to study abroad.

So, the young couple who had just confirmed their relationship had to start a long-distance relationship.

When Xie Tinglan was not working or working abroad, he would come and live with Xia Linxing for a while. Recently, it happened to be the vacation time that Xie Tinglan had arranged for himself, and he was photographed and then spread online by a marketing account.

However, the two did not care about the online turmoil. Xia Linxing did not plan to stay in the entertainment industry in the future, and Xie Tinglan would not affect his current status.

So, the two people's biggest reaction to this was to long press the photo of the two holding hands taken by the blogger - and save it in their mobile phones.

"How long until get out of class is over?" The phone vibrated twice, and Xie Tinglan sent a new message.

Xia Linxing glanced at the PPT on the podium and replied, "It's almost over."

He had just sent his reply when the professor on the stage announced the end of the get out of class.

Xia Linxing quickly packed up his things and ran out the door with light steps.

"I'm done with get out of class!"

The tall and handsome man raised his eyes and smiled gently after seeing the boy running towards him.

He skillfully opened his arms and steadily caught the star that flew into his arms.
