Chapter 63 Rain Comes (1)
A drizzle of rain fell, with heavy rainfall across much of the country, perhaps a glimpse of the heavens mourning the passing of these two artists. Death is the end of the world, and even the biggest mistakes are forgotten, with people frantically searching for the good qualities they possessed or didn't have. Remaining peace was flooded online.
Sun Qing's ashes were scattered across the sky and sea, a heinous death. Even under the scorching sun, it felt like being roasted on fire, and even under the drizzling rain, it felt suffocating, like being crushed on an asphalt road by cars and people.
Sun Qing still waited at the door of Ying Zhisheng's house without giving up. He was originally looking for Zhou Qing, but after not seeing him for a long time, he became annoyed and anxious. He shouted that he wanted to negotiate with Lou Sheng, the pretty boy.
Fuquan and others knew nothing about the ghost's contradiction. Today was the day Zhou Haoji was buried. The media focused on it and the fans couldn't stop crying.
Assistant Tao has had a lot of free time lately, so he's been tasked with buying Lou Sheng some weird and wonderful things as tributes to please the ghosts. He's the one who's been watching the show, saying, "Zhang Luheng is going to get scolded to death. It's all her fault."
"Why blame her?"
"I don't know. Some people blame Brother Sheng and the production team. They even criticized the artificial rainfall in some areas during the recent hot weather. They said that the artificial rainfall disrupted the magnetic field, which led to the lightning that almost killed people."
Uncle Cheng Zhi was peeling the apples on the memorial tablet. It was an incredible request from the boss, but it was understandable considering that Lou Sheng was a rich second-generation who had no worries about food and drink when he was alive.
Cheng Zhishu said: "Some clips of the show were broadcast. It's a blessing that Zhisheng wasn't recorded. However, the fact that Bai Cheng killed Zhou Haoji was broadcast and recorded, and it kept fermenting online."
Everyone has seen the screen recording, and the scene of Bai Cheng grabbing Zhou Haoji by the collar, lifting him up and smashing the back of his head is still vivid in people's minds.
Can ordinary people really do it?
The horror wasn't just the brutal death, but also Bai Cheng's strange behavior from the beginning. He froze, mumbling for help, walking on tiptoe with twisted arms and legs, tossing his hair, and smiling shyly.
He has completely become a different person, as if possessed by a ghost.
Assistant Tao touched the goose bumps on his arm. Ghosts were terrifying creatures. They lurked in the darkness, dead and full of resentment. Those eyes, white as the whites of their eyes, stared at you from behind, ready to kill you at any moment, just like they had killed Sun Qing and Zhou Haoji, simply and violently.
The ghost that had Assistant Tao trembling with fear was singing. Ying Zhisheng played the piano, while Lou Sheng, who was always off-key, started singing.
The singing was so bad that Ying Zhisheng always laughed while playing the instrument.
The atmosphere was harmonious, and Ying Zhisheng was in a good mood. Lou Sheng smiled and asked tentatively, "When are you going to send me away? It's not a good thing for me to stay by your side all the time."
"Where do you want to go?" Ying Zhisheng's expression remained unchanged.
Lou Sheng hesitated, unable to answer. This wasn't a question of where to go; it was that humans and ghosts had different paths, and that life and death were different. If he stayed with Ying Zhisheng, he would only delay him.
Lou Sheng's throat was dry, and he whispered, "I'm already dead, why don't you find someone else."
Look, this heartless person will make him angry.
Ying Zhisheng took a deep breath and curled up the corners of his mouth to reveal a perfect, unmistakable smile. He often made such fake expressions in front of the camera.
"Wouldn't it be nice to just stay by my side? Lou Sheng, I'll be retiring by the end of the year. Wouldn't it be nice to just be the two of us?"
"Not good." Anyone with a discerning eye could see that such persistence was destroying one's own future. One should not become an alien in the world, as one could clearly have a future that everyone would envy.
Lou Sheng said irritably, "I don't want to be with you. You can be my big star while I wait in the underground until you die of old age in your eighties or nineties. Then we can meet again. Ying Zhisheng, you have to consider respecting my opinion."
The strings were torn, and the fingers drew deep red blood. The pain could not move Ying Zhisheng, only the person in front of him.
Ying Zhisheng's smile suddenly widened, and he looked indescribably sinister and cold: "You didn't even consider me when you died, so why should I consider respecting you?"
"Ah?" Lou Sheng was stunned and opened his eyes slightly wide.
"What I mean is," Ying Zhisheng's eyes softened, and he traced the figure in the air with his fingers. "I'm worried about you being alone. I have to stay by your side."
Lou Sheng, why do you want to die?
There is a person named Ying Zhisheng in the world, but this person is not important enough for you to choose to survive, right?
Lou Sheng felt a chill run down his spine from being stared at by Ying Zhisheng, and he quickly demanded, "Please burn some winter clothes for me. I always get goose bumps when I'm around you."
And burning winter clothes. Ying Zhisheng closed his eyes helplessly: "Okay."
At this time, the minor frictions were restored to normal, and it was a peaceful and pleasant afternoon overall. A trending search quietly climbed the list:
#Jianqianjinxuexing
Recently, Jian Qian has been shining on the show. This playful girl with a variety of styles has a company that is willing to support her, and she has good luck in endorsements this year.
I guess it was a trending search bought by a competitor. Several bloggers and influencers were saying that whatever show Jian Qian appeared on would cause trouble. They consulted a fortune teller and found out that Jian Qian was a jinx who would bring bad luck to those around her.
This label was truly toxic. "Unlucky Star" meant that any celebrity associated with Jian Qian would be blamed for any trivial incidents on this innocent girl. Besides, with such a reputation, who would dare to endorse or collaborate with her? No one liked unlucky stars.
This matter had nothing to do with Ying Zhisheng, but some people had nothing to do and started looking for similarities between the two programs "Single Star 3" and "Play Big".
——[I Am a Genius 776: Ying Zhisheng, Jian Qian, Qi Chang. They all participated in a program where someone died, and voted to choose whose problem it was [snickering] [snickering]]
The comments below exploded, with most offering sober rebuttals:
How can you be so presumptuous as this? Righteous netizens: Bullshit! People are dying on Earth every day. Why not just give up on this Earth and move to Mars!
Anonymous user 936: The murderer hasn't been found yet, yet you're blaming them all. This is even more terrifying than victim blaming. This is called shifting the blame.
[Story Chengji: Your brain is no bigger than a booger. Is this kind of thing something you can use to provoke a fight or make a joke? To go to this extent to discredit someone, how much hatred do you have?]
Did the nunchaku slap you? : Damn it, whoever voted for Jian Qian, stand up for me? To have such a vicious mindset, someone actually has it in them. How dark must their hearts be?
[A pot of cactus: Don't criticize me, I actually think it's Ying Zhisheng [sticks out tongue]. His fans have said that this is Ying Zhisheng's first and second variety shows, and both went wrong hahahaha. Doesn't anyone find Ying Zhisheng a particularly weird person?]
[Anonymous user ***: I voted for Ying Zhisheng too, for no reason, I just hate seeing guys who act like cupcakes.]
…
Ying Zhisheng was reading the comments. Lou Sheng was getting angry when he heard Assistant Tao exclaim, "Gao Yixuan is live streaming!"
"Gao Yixuan said that Brother Sheng was raising a little ghost to become famous, and he even started swearing and swearing in the live broadcast room."
