Chapter 267 The Beginning (1/2)



After Shang Ye Chu officially announced his suppression of Shi Shan, he was already in the eye of the storm. This latest incident has caused an even bigger uproar.

Although a denial was issued immediately, as Shang Yechu had predicted, the statement from a relatively unknown celebrity had limited effect. Aside from the self-congratulatory pronouncements within her fanbase, no one paid any attention. Shang Yechu's sex scandals and plastic surgery rumors continued to spread like a viral infection.

The ivy sisters, on the other hand, were furious, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Ye Chu is indeed a resource-rich actress!

Shi Shan, who has no background or connections, was once again bullied by those with powerful backers!

After the official announcement of "Half a Day," Shi Shan's fandom was thrown into turmoil. Many fans unfollowed him, and some even switched from supporting him as a "cute guy" to supporting him as a "breast" guy, constantly criticizing Shi Shan for being disappointing.

A portion of rational fans explained Li Yiming's achievements and the significance of the drama, listing the reasons why Shi Shan had to be the second lead. However, this group of rational fans is as small as the frosting on a donut in the overall fanbase. Not only is it few in number and quality, but it's also easily melted away by the hype. Therefore, despite all the explanations, very few fans were convinced.

The order of billing supersedes everything, even the depth of the character, the seriousness of the subject matter, and the content and quality of the script. This is an ironclad rule that is both laughable and absurd. Even if Shi Shan himself were to explain it, he would only be torn apart by angry fans.

Shi Shan was initially in a difficult position, but fortunately, the truth has now come out. It turns out that Shi Shan was just a pitiful little guy being bullied by a nepotistic actress. It wasn't that he didn't want to fight back, but rather that Ye Chu's godfather was too powerful!

The veracity of the rumors doesn't matter; what matters is that the "Climbing Ivy Sisters" have finally found an outlet for their venting. No longer needing to criticize their beloved Shi Shan, they can now focus their fire on another culprit.

The target of the attack, Shang Yechu, turned off his phone, pinched the bridge of his nose, and his expression was unreadable.

No one can remain cheerful after being bombarded with rumors, and Shang Yechu was no exception.

It's no big deal to get a few criticisms for having plastic surgery. Isn't 103's technological approach a form of plastic surgery? Shang Yechu won't shamelessly claim to have a naturally beautiful, untouched face just because her appearance has been altered without leaving any trace.

What angered and frustrated Shang Yechu were those unfounded rumors.

Knowing that filming was imminent and she shouldn't be looking at these things to avoid affecting her performance, Shang Yechu couldn't resist picking up her phone again and clicking into the live chat to see what others were saying about the matter.

The live chat was utterly disgusting. It was crawling with frenzied fans and "Climbing Ivy Sisters," along with other opportunistic followers. Shang Yechu glanced at it and then closed it.

After switching accounts, Shang Yechu entered her fan group. Celebrities need to constantly monitor their fans' activities, and Shang Yechu had several alternate accounts lurking within these fan groups.

Ye Ya's fan group is engaged in a fierce anti-black war, and apart from being busier than usual, nothing seems to have changed. However, Shang Yechu glanced at the group's members and knew that quite a few people had already left the group and unfollowed her.

It's normal for fans to come and go.

Shang Yechu left the main group and joined another smaller core fan group. This group had fewer members, and the fans in the group were those who had been fans for a longer time and had a deeper affection for Shang Yechu.

Fewer people left this group. But when Shang Ye clicked into the group list, she immediately noticed Ye Luochen, who looked very familiar, and had changed his profile picture to black.

Clicking into Ye Luochen's homepage, the profile picture and background are completely black, and the pinned posts that used to be filled with content related to Shang Yechu have been removed. The last Weibo post contains only a few simple words:

Until we meet again.

Anyone who has ever been a fan of a celebrity knows that "meeting again by chance" usually means never seeing each other again.

For a moment, an indescribable sense of desolation filled Shang Yechu's heart.

It feels like just yesterday I was amazed by Ye Luochen's video clips. In the blink of an eye, she's gone too.

Whether it's disappointment, reluctance, or the illusion of being abandoned, this state is toxic and will affect one's energy and spirit while filming.

Shang Yechu didn't dare let herself get caught up in these emotions, so she immediately left the group chat. She was about to uninstall Weibo when she suddenly remembered something.

Is the "Climbing Ivy Sister" being this crazy? Will she take her rights to the bottom of her Weibo account to protest?

Knowing that the result might not be what she wanted to see, Shang Yechu still clicked on @叶初Leaves's homepage.

Ye Chu Leaves' latest Weibo post is a repost of the official announcement from the official Weibo account of "Tianban".

To Shang Yechu's surprise, the comments section was reasonably normal. Although a few sporadic signs of vines were peeking out, Ye Ya still maintained overall control.

Has Leaf Bud's combat power increased?

Shang Yechu immediately dismissed the idea. She knew exactly what she was capable of with her limited abilities.

Scrolling further down, the number of comments on Xiao Fengque's final Weibo post seemed unusual. Clicking on it, Shang Yechu frowned.

@Shishan's Little Tiger Claw: [Congratulations on finishing the series, sister! [Love you]]

@ShiMiaoMiao: [Sister is so beautiful!]

@SweetOxygenOnTheMountainTop: [I like this character more than Ah Feng!]

@A Mountain in the Era: [When will your next film be shot, sister?]

@山包包的那个开花哟: [This sister is the best actress I've ever seen!]

If you only look at the text, these comments are just the simplest and most adorable fan blessings. Unfortunately, each comment is accompanied by an image.

Congratulations on finishing your series, sister! [Love you]

I like this character even more than Ah Feng!
