Chapter 37: The popular actress's online boyfriend
"Who is Mao Xiayao?" Shen Yijin asked in confusion.
She was still chewing, her brain in a semi-shutdown state.
The original owner didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry. She had just arrived in this world not long ago and didn't even know the names of any female stars.
Bei Shitao moved her chair to sit next to Chen Yijin and put her phone in front of him: "That's her! Mao Xiayao is very popular recently. I can see several of her push notifications just by browsing my phone. How come you don't even know who she is?"
Bei Shitao just finished speaking, thinking of the gossip about Chen Yijin and Nan Zichen: "Oh, I see. You spend all your time on Nan Zichen, so it's normal that you don't have time to pay attention to these."
Shen Yijin: …
She is really tired.
The love-brained image that the original owner created for the outside world was really deeply rooted in people's hearts, and everyone believed that she was deeply in love with Nan Zichen.
Chen Yijin felt that this matter could not be explained clearly in a short time, so she simply pretended not to hear Bei Shitao's next words.
She looked at the photo of Mao Xiayao on Bei Shitao's phone screen and confirmed that there was no such person in the memory left to her by the original owner.
Chen Yijin: "I can't calculate this person. Her photo is too heavily retouched and her face is not clear. If you have a photo of her without makeup, I can calculate it."
Bei Shitao raised her eyebrows: "Guess what? I actually have a photo of her without makeup!"
Bei Shitao was flipping through her phone while talking. When Chen Yijin had finished the ingredients in the pot and was already adding new ingredients to the pot, Bei Shitao finally found a photo of Mao Xiayao without makeup among thousands of photos.
"I bought this from a paparazzi at a huge price. Yijin, please help me calculate it. I will pay according to the price in the live broadcast room!" Bei Shitao's face was full of anticipation.
Chen Yijin glanced at Bei Shitao's so-called bare-face photo, then looked away and continued eating: "It's fake, this is a fake bare-face photo. Miss Bei, you should be more careful in the future and don't be fooled again."
She was cheated when buying a villa, and the photos of her without makeup that she paid a huge price for were also fake. Why did Bei Shitao keep wasting her money?
"What!" Bei Shitao's face turned red with anger. "I spent ten times the market price to buy the photos back, and he actually sold me fake photos!"
She had previously praised Mao Xiayao for her bare face, saying that she looked better than without makeup, but it turned out that she was not bare-faced at all.
Bei Shitao felt that she had some kind of enemy physique, otherwise why did bad things always happen to her.
Because of this, Bei Shitao was so angry that she lost her appetite, and almost all the hot pot ingredients she carefully prepared went into Shen Yijin's stomach.
When Chen Yijin started the live broadcast on time, Bei Shitao still looked distraught, unable to recover from the series of deceptions.
But after Shen Yijin's first contact person of the day came out, Bei Shitao was resurrected with full health.
Who would have thought that the first person she contacted was the person she had been thinking about the most - Mao Xiayao.
After Mao Xiayao connected with Shen Yijin, everyone in the live broadcast room was shocked.
[Sister, why are you here to have your fortune told? Have you encountered any difficulties? Why didn’t my sister tell us fans? 】
[Oh my god, the anchor is out of breath, and he actually connected to a popular star! 】
[Who would understand? I was watching the anchor tell fortunes while browsing Mao Xia Yao’s newly released TV series. In the blink of an eye, the same face appeared on both screens! 】
[Wow, I was struck by my sister’s beauty! It was such a joy to see my sister so late at night. 】
Bei Shitao was also very excited to see the living Mao Xiayao in the live broadcast room.
Bei Shitao was so eager to eat melon that she couldn't help but post a comment.
[Taozi: Yaoyao, can you tell us whether your boyfriend is an ordinary person or a celebrity? I am so curious! 】
Mao Xiayao only glanced at the comments and saw the one posted by Bei Shitao.
Her eyes were filled with resentment: "I contacted the anchor today just to ask him to calculate this matter."
[Peach: Ah? 】
Bei Shitao didn't understand why Mao Xiayao wanted to consider Chen Yijin her boyfriend right after announcing their relationship.
Mao Xiayao knows her boyfriend has problems but still dares to make their relationship public. Does this mean she doesn't want to be a star anymore?
"It's like this. My boyfriend and I met while playing games. Although we have never met in person, we have been married in the game and have been a couple for five years. We agreed to get married a long time ago, but he kept dragging his feet and refused to meet me in person, saying that he was afraid of affecting my career."
Mao Xiayao explained: "I made our relationship public this time to force him to meet me in person. I am a very insecure person and have always wanted a family. Now you can register for marriage with just an ID card. I have made up my mind. We will go and get the marriage certificate on the day of the meeting."
[Sister, you are still on the rise, why are you so pessimistic! Sister, please wake up. A man can never be as happy as a career! 】
[No, Yaoyao, if he doesn’t want to meet you in person, it clearly means he doesn’t want to marry you! How can you be so stupid? How can you take the couples in the game seriously? You don’t even know if the person on the other side is a man or a woman! 】
[Online dating is not a good idea, sister, be rational! 】
[Ahhh, I told you that your sister shouldn’t take on so many roles as naive female protagonists. Now she’s been confused by all the brainless sweet dramas. Your agent, come out and get beaten! 】
Mao Xiayao's words broke the hearts of many of her fans.
It was surprising enough for them to see the star they liked officially announce a relationship at the peak of his career, but it turned out that Mao Xiayao was in an unreliable online relationship and fell in love without even meeting the guy in person. This was something the fans really couldn't accept.
Bei Shitao was no exception. Her eyes turned red and she looked even sadder than when she found out that she had spent a huge amount of money and been cheated.
Chen Yijin glanced at Bei Shitao, who was crying silently, and did not give Mao Xiayao special treatment because she was a star: "I can help you calculate, but please remove your makeup first."
"Your makeup is too thick. I can't see your face clearly." Chen Yijin ruthlessly exposed the truth that Mao Xiayao appeared in heavy makeup.
The live broadcast had poor image quality. Mao Xiayao was afraid that her makeup was too light and would not look photogenic in the live broadcast, so she deliberately put on heavy makeup, and it was the kind that pretended to be natural.
Mao Xiayao felt a little embarrassed when Shen Yijin revealed that she was wearing heavy makeup.
She was removing her makeup while trying to make excuses for herself: "Well, I've been filming a lot lately and my work and rest schedule isn't very regular, so I don't look very good. Please bear with me."
Mao Xiayao's fans jumped out to express their understanding, but after Mao Xiayao removed her makeup, they all fell silent.
Mao Xiayao looks completely different before and after makeup, like two different people.
Even Mao Xiayao's fans who have ten layers of thick fan filters can't help but praise Mao Xiayao for her beauty without makeup.
[Ah, this is what she looks like without makeup. It’s different from the photos in previous announcements. Is this a leak? 】
After passers-by made such comments, only a few fans spoke up for Mao Xiayao.
Shen Yijin didn't care what Mao Xiayao looked like without makeup. She calculated with her fingers and quickly came up with an answer.
Chen Yijin: "Let me tell you a good news first. Your online boyfriend is not bad. His feelings for you are real. It's not like what the netizens in the live broadcast room speculated. He is not a shemale and he doesn't want to keep you hanging. He really wants to marry you and live his life with you."
Where there is good news there is bad news.
Mao Xiayao's heart was hanging: "But what?"
