They don't actually think I like them, do they?

Lin Han smiled but didn't say anything.

What's the difference between this statement coming from Mangzi and Grandpa Ding saying "what I value most is innocence"?

Lin Han took a deep breath and explained again.

"Sister Mangzi, believe me, you'll know the answer in a couple of days, but I can't tell you right now."

"But I can assure you that 'Seven Mile Fragrance,' 'The Rain Is Still Falling,' and 'Those Adventurous Dreams You Had' were all songs written for you!"

Upon hearing Lin Han's words, Mangzi's expression finally softened considerably.

After a long pause, the girl sighed.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your explanation."

“But even if you convince me, how will you convince the fans?” Mangzi said seriously. “If only I know that it was written for me, then it can’t be considered written for me at all! Do you think they’re three-year-olds who are so easy to fool?”

"Okay, okay, just wait here." Lin Han quickly put his arm around Mangzi's neck and walked out through the corridor that was blocked by classmates.

It's really not easy to appease Mangzi; it's almost like spreading your wings on the edge of death!

The reason why Lin Han was willing to offend this Grim Reaper was that he waited two days to give an explanation.

It's about letting the bullets fly a little longer.

To some extent, Mangzi is right; Lin Han deliberately chose this album title to be offensive.

It's not disgusting to young girls, it's disgusting to the CP (couple) fans in the fandom.

Orange Jam has been a top hit in the Chinese music scene for more than half a year now.

During this period, the "Love Orange" community has gradually grown and become a huge group that cannot be ignored on the Internet.

Orange Jam's humble, low-key, non-hype-seeking, focus on creative work, and non-participation in variety shows have long made her a role model in the entertainment industry.

However, Ju Zi Jiang's extremely high reputation did not have any positive effect on her fans on Weibo.

On the contrary, these positive reputations and works have even become the most powerful weapons for Weibo fans to attack other celebrities, to put down one and praise another, and to stir up a mess in the entertainment industry.

If every celebrity has extreme fans, then Orange Jam's extreme fans are undoubtedly the most terrifying, especially the CP (couple) fans! They are typical of the fandom!

Therefore,

Following his debut concert performance of "I Really Didn't Sleep," Lin Han's second act of betraying his fans has begun!

064. A bitter feud

The album title alone quickly caused a huge stir on the internet.

Within a day, Lin Han's long-dormant Weibo account received over 10 comments, with everyone demanding an explanation.

"Damn it, Su Ruxue is my white moonlight!! I've been shipping her for so long, waaaaah!!"

"Holy crap, I'm heartbroken. Pear Sister is such a good girl, why did you have to hurt her like this!"

"Marmalade, what are you doing? Marmalade, what are you doing? Marmalade, what are you doing...?"

"Your mom, Orange God, you're destined to be a lonely widow for life!!"

The hashtag "Songs Not Written for Anyone" quickly rose to the top of Weibo's trending topics list!

Although Lin Han frequently trends on Weibo, reaching the top spot is still a rare and precious opportunity, and this time, he has once again taken the crown! Dominating the entire Weibo platform!

Some outsiders who were unaware of the facts were puzzled.

It's just an album title, is it really that big of a deal?

It's probably hard for normal people to understand, but the power of CP fans is often more terrifying than people imagine!

In Lin Han's previous life, one of the most well-known battles between shipping fans was probably the Conan x Ai shippers and the Shinichi x Ran shippers in "Detective Conan".

The war between these two parties was earth-shattering and infamous, with both sides wishing the other dead.

For more than a decade, the two parties fought fiercely in various arenas, to the point that even a dog passing by would be slapped twice.

Take the Koei Tecmo party for example; its composition is quite complex, with three factions within it.

The "Solely Ai Party": Simply support Ai Haibara; they don't necessarily expect her to be paired with Conan.

Conan and Ai shippers (those who support the "Plain Yellow Banner" pairing): Conan and Ai Haibara must be a couple.

The "Anti-Ran Party": They may not necessarily like Ai Haibara, but they would love for Ran Mouri to die.

Conversely, it's pretty much the same on Xiaolan's side; sometimes, even within the same party, there are internal conflicts.

The intensity of the conflict between the two sides is such that even many online bloggers who talk about Detective Conan deliberately avoid this topic, because it could easily escalate into a heated argument.

People who have never understood partisan politics will gain a new understanding of the internet after learning a little.

Although the CP fans of Orange Marmalade haven't been fighting as long as Conan, Orange Marmalade's high profile and the occasional "CP songs" that fuel the flames mean that their fighting power is only increasing.

This time, Lin Han's actions were equivalent to...

Conan cut off Little Chichi and said, "Hehe, actually I was lying to you. I'm a transgender person. You didn't really think I ever liked you, did you?"

This left all the CP fans completely dumbfounded.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that their faith has collapsed!

However, no matter how many hundreds of thousands of fans bombarded him on Weibo, Lin Han remained unmoved, leisurely sipping his tea.

In less than eight hours, Lin Han's Collapse Index surged by 14!

This index directly surpassed "Cheers," which once swept the entire internet and made countless people cry, and beat "I'm Really Not Asleep," which made tens of thousands of fans at the concert curse Lin Han for the first time!

Lin Han used only a title to sway the emotions of all his fans.

The day after the new album was released, Lin Han received a call from Chen Yi, the music director.

"Teacher Orange, something terrible has happened... Would you like to come to the company?"

"what happened?"

"Why don't you take a look at the news?"

Lin Han opened his phone with a puzzled look. As soon as he entered the short video platform, a news article popped up.

Shocking! A large number of Juzi Jam fans gathered at the entrance of Bilibili (Bilibili.com) to protest with banners!

The video clearly shows at least several hundred people densely packed in front of Bilibili, holding banners and small flags, and protesting loudly.

"Fuck your mother, give me my money back!"

A girl excitedly shouted in front of the camera, holding physical albums of "Yili Cute Sweet Orange Jam" and "You Are All My Wings" in her hands.

"I bought every single one of Orange Brother's albums, I never imagined he was this kind of person! How could he face us?! I demand a refund!!"

The girl was crying with tears streaming down her face. Despite her appearance as a high school student, the foul language she uttered made Lin Han involuntarily shrink back.

Another guy excitedly grabbed the camera.

"Damn it, that scumbag Orange Jam always claims his songs are for so-and-so, fooling everyone's feelings. Now he's trying to use this album title to clear up the rumors. He's a complete beast!!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Han couldn't help but gasp.

Netizens went from initial skepticism to now making a definitive decision:

What else could he possibly want with that name? It's all about having one's cake and eating it too! He wants to distance himself from other girls!

That's why it has caused such a great deal of resentment.

Seeing the grand spectacle in the video, Lin Han was deeply moved and expressed his regret.

So he said to Chen Yi:

"I won't go. I believe you can handle it!"

"????"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yi stared blankly at his phone screen, completely bewildered.

"Chen Yi!" A furious shout came from behind him; it was the general manager.

"Aren't you going to appease those people?"

"Teacher Orange isn't coming!" Chen Yi said, on the verge of tears.

"Then you go! Teacher Ju is so busy, she must have something to do to be unable to come!" the general manager scolded.

Having no other choice, Chen Yi walked out of the company gate.

"Everyone, please be quiet..." Chen Yi had just started speaking when a girl shouted, "Put your mother's head on!"

Then a cake was smashed into his face.

"We want to see Brother Orange!"

"We just want an explanation!!"

"You old scoundrel, Orange, you fucking come out here!"

"..." Chen Yi could only cover his face and run back.

That evening, Yan Yuli also called Lin Han.

"What does your name mean?" Yan Yuli asked directly, without any preamble.

"Reply to senior, wait two days, and you'll have the answer in two days."

"Oh."

Yan Yuli didn't say anything.

Since the last fireworks display, the relationship between the two has undergone a subtle change.

Yan Yuli then said,

"Don't worry about what happened last time, your mother didn't report it to the police."

"I see it."

Lin Han was prepared to be taken to the police station for questioning, but a week passed and nothing happened.

However, it's understandable. Given Yan Yuli's level of fame, if this kind of thing gets out, the impact will be quite negative.

Moreover, if Yan Yuli were to muster the courage to defend Lin Han, the fact that Yan Yuli was under house arrest would be brought to the forefront and made known to the entire internet, at which point things would spiral out of control.

Although there are no external sanctions, internal sanctions are inevitable. It remains to be seen how Yan Qing will deal with Yan Yuli later.

Lin Han could only do his best to accelerate his growth.

Yan Yuli hung up the phone.

Lin Han had actually prepared how to explain things to Su Ruxue, but unfortunately, he didn't receive any messages from her all night.

This girl is always calm and collected; she might just spot Lin Han messing things up at a glance.

That's right, Lin Han is indeed making a mess of things!

After earning enough Collapse Index, Lin Han was ready to start mending the sky.

065. It's just a self-titled album.

For Lin Han, it wouldn't be difficult to reverse the situation, since he is a singer and the final interpretation is in his hands.

However, what's more interesting is the reaction from netizens, which was much more amusing than Lin Han had imagined.

The netizens went from being confused and bewildered at the beginning, to being angry and abusive, and finally to feeling sad.

In just two days, netizens' emotions changed three times, like children throwing a tantrum because they couldn't get candy, while the candy was in Lin Han's hands, and he could play with them however he wanted, making them incredibly obedient.

In the past few days, many videos have appeared at night, and various self-media bloggers have jumped on the bandwagon, analyzing the new album title "Orange Jam" from multiple perspectives.

And most people's conclusion is—

Having made enough money, she started to distance herself from the scandals. Orange Jam is cold-blooded and ruthless, toying with the feelings of her fans!

Many people exclaimed that the building had collapsed!

Of course, some people believe that a musical genius like Orange Jam must have had his own reasons for choosing a name, and it may not necessarily mean what it seems on the surface.

As everyone argued back and forth online, Lin Han's "breakdown index" skyrocketed.

By the third day, Lin Han's collapse index had reached 76!
