I really didn't intend to make a living based on my looks.

Chapter 84 No way, I'll do it myself

"Sisters—I'm dead—Chenchen is dead—Tusu is dead—but Chengzi isn't dead—Chengzi will always be here—"

""

The group chat was flooded with messages: "As long as Tu Su lives, Orange will never disperse!"

"Baili Tusu, may our story never end!"

"Jiang Chen, we're waiting for you to come back!"

The finale ended at midnight.

Data summary.

CSM national network ratings: 3.01% on the night of the finale, setting a new record for Shandong TV.

Market share: 19.87%, ranking first in the country during the same period.

Tencent Video's cumulative views have exceeded 30 billion.

Baidu Index: Jiang Chen's personal index is 280 million, setting a new record for mainland actors.

His Weibo followers have exceeded 1600 million.

At 1 a.m., Jiang Chen forwarded a Weibo post.

It's a farewell video of Baili Tusu edited by fan artist Orange, which garnered over 500 million views within 4 hours.

Jiang Chen reposted it, adding the caption: "Thank you all. Tu Su is gone, but Jiang Chen remains. As long as Orange exists, I will not leave."

This short sentence instantly went viral online!

The post was shared over 100,000 times, received 200,000 comments, and saw a staggering 500,000 likes!

The oranges reached another climax.

It's worth noting that the current undisputed queen of Weibo is Yao Cheng, who has 23 million followers and is widely recognized as the Weibo Queen.

Even for her, her most popular posts usually only get 30,000 to 50,000 reposts, 10,000 to 20,000 comments, and a mere 70,000 to 80,000 likes.

Jiang Chen's Weibo post completely crushed the peak performance of the Weibo Queen, leaving her far behind!

Qingdao, in the height of summer.

The crew of "Midsummer's Love" is taking a break during intermission.

Liu Kaiwei walked up to Yang Mi with a gentle smile: "Mi Mi, how about we have dinner together tonight? I've booked a seafood restaurant; they just caught some swimming crabs."

Yang Mi didn't even look up, flipping through the script: "Please, we're just colleagues. What does your restaurant reservation have to do with me?"

"Colleagues can also eat—"

"Liu Kaiwei," Yang Mi said, closing the script, "I'll say it again, I'm busy. And I'm not interested. Understand?"

"Also, from now on, call me by my full name in private. We're not that close!"

She turned and walked away, her high heels clattering on the floor.

Liu Kaiwei stood there, his smile frozen on his face.

Assistant Xixi leaned over: "Brother Wei, she still doesn't agree?"

Liu Kaiwei didn't say anything. Only after Yang Mi's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor did he mutter a curse under his breath: "Stop pretending."

He first met Yang Mi in July 2010 in Hengdian.

When friends gathered for dinner, he was filming "The Legend of Lady General Fan Lihua" and she was filming "Palace".

She was quite enthusiastic towards him at the time, and he felt that the girl had feelings for him.

Then in 2011, they collaborated on "Ruyi," playing lovers, and he thought his opportunity had come.

But Yang Mi suddenly distanced herself from him, becoming as cold as if she were a completely different person.

In October, he signed with Mei Ah Entertainment and became her colleague. The company, including the Zeng family, expressed their support for using the couple to create hype, but she has consistently refused.

"Brother Wei," Xixi lowered her voice, "I heard that Yang Mi might be dating Jiang Chen."

Liu Kaiwei was taken aback: "Jiang Chen?"

"The male lead from 'Swords of Legends' is the one who's recently become incredibly popular."

Of course he knew Jiang Chen, the most popular male celebrity in the entertainment industry right now, and also the biggest threat to their four leading men!

This was just selected in February of this year.

Nearly 100,000 netizens participated in the vote, and He Chengming came in first place, while he came in second.

There's also Zhang Han and Brother Hu.

The most embarrassing thing is that Jiang Chen rose to prominence just a few months after this result was announced!

You're blocking his way!

Even more importantly, she's stealing his woman!

He originally wanted to ride on Yang Mi's popularity and gain both fame and fortune!

Everything went down the drain —

Jiang Chen, right?

You just wait!

At the end of the corridor, Yang Mi leaned against the window, sending a message.

"You bastard, play games with me tonight!"

"I'm busy!"

"Then video chat."

"Honey, stop fooling around. We're recording a song, the full version of 'Heavy Rain.' Old Li is watching, so I can't leave."

Yang Mi pouted, "Sigh, what a pity. I just bought a pair of black stockings today, with lace trim. I was thinking of showing them to you—"

Jiang Chen: "I'm not that kind of person!"

"I'm actually free tonight."

Yang Mi laughed out loud, her fingers flying across the keyboard: "Isn't this a song recording? Isn't Li Ronghao watching?"

"His cat suddenly gave birth, and he had to rush back. You know, people with small eyes are indeed prone to being careless, huh?"

Yang Mi: "————"

Tangren Film and Television Headquarters.

Liu Shishi, dressed in a beige dress, walked to the office door.

The sound of ping-pong balls being slammed and hit came from inside the door.

The assistant and Nazha huddled in the corridor, their faces as white as paper.

Liu Shishi raised an eyebrow: "Still angry?"

The assistant nodded: "Yes, Senior Sister, President Cai is furious. Those media outlets are shameless. They wrote about us first, and now they've turned their backs on us faster than flipping through a book."

"How was it written?"

The assistant diligently took out his phone and read it aloud.

"Southern Metropolis Entertainment Weekly: The Collapse of Tangren, From a Dominant Player in the Fantasy World to a Washed-Up Workshop"

Sina Entertainment: "Cai Yinong's Six Years of Planning Were No Match for Jiang Chen's Sudden Success"

Sohu Entertainment: "Xuan-Yuan Sword reached a peak of 2.35%, Gu Jian concluded with 3.01%, Tang Ren should retire."

The Beijing News's most scathing article: "Cai Yinong: Gu Jian is not worth mentioning! Now, who is not worth mentioning?"

After hearing this, Liu Shishi's lips twitched: "That's quite vicious indeed."

"Senior Sister, are you going in now? Or should I ask around for you?"

"No need," Liu Shishi glanced at the letter, "Come here, let's chat for a bit."

The two walked to a corner.

"You and Jiang Chen have a good relationship?" Liu Shishi asked bluntly.

Nazha's expression changed: "I—I—"

"Don't be nervous, I won't tattle. Personal relationships are personal relationships, and company matters are company matters."

Nazha breathed a sigh of relief: "Senior Sister, how did you know?"

"Jiang Chen and I are friends too. He even asked me to take care of you."

Naza's eyes lit up: "Ah? Really?"

"Really," Liu Shishi smiled even sweeter, "I feel that Jiang Chen cares about you quite a bit. He said you're innocent, cute, and different from other girls in the industry."

Nazha blushed, twisting the hem of her clothes with her fingers: "He—he really said that?"

"certainly!"

Liu Shishi thought to herself that she had made it up, but she kept a straight face!

She glanced at Nazha's expression and chuckled inwardly.

This girl is so easy to fool.

She's been really annoyed with Yang Mi lately.

After "Swords of Legends" became a hit, Yang Mi frequently showed off her affection for her boyfriend.

"My Jiang Chen is young and strong!"

"My Jiang Chen is more famous than your old man."

What old man?

She didn't agree to Nicky Wu's proposal!

Before anything was even started, Yang Mi used it as a target to attack.

This has made her dislike Wu Qilong even now.

I initially had a good impression of him, but after Yang Mi kept calling him "old man, old man" every day, and constantly comparing him to Jiang Chen, I suddenly felt a bit disillusioned. What's going on?

It was actually quite addictive at first —

You like to show off your love, right?

My relationship fell apart, so my best friend, you're not going to have it easy either.

Let that guy cause trouble for you; if that doesn't work, I'll do it myself.

(P.S.: I posted the wrong chapter again, but it's already on Sanjiang, so I'll just put it on sale now. There will be three more chapters during the day! Time to start updating like crazy!)
