One Useless Rebirth - Chap 166
Chap 166
: Mutual Property (4)
Being held by Di Qiuhe, He Bai looked around like conditioned reflex, after making sure no one was around in the park, he didn’t withdraw his hands, “Now you are talking, I’ll cook you steak dinner now that you are being such a good boy.”
Di Qiuhe noticed He Bai’s reaction, seeing his puppy so cautious, his smile went stiff, then he became poised, “yay, I’ll help.”
Fan Da opened the gift sent by He Bai, it was a pile of photos, he picked one on the top and it was Di Qiuhe, he touched the edges affectionately.
“Such a considerate boy.” said Fan Da. He kept going through all the photos, it took him a long while to go though the whole pile since he stared at each one for a long time. Then he put the photos back to the box, put the cover lid back and patted the box, “Hu… did Qiuhe have a hard time in Di family?”
Hu Zhao handed him a cup of hot tea, patted him on the back and said in a comforting tone, “Mr. Fan, let bygones be bygones, thanks to Mr. He, there’s nothing but happiness in store for Mr. Di.”
“True, nothing but happiness. Thank God I didn’t go too far that day… Have you seen the photos in the box, how hearty Qiuhe’s smiles are…” replied Fan Da holding the cup, then he clutched his hands, said with a deep voice, “Therefore, I will not allow anyone to taint Qiuhe’s smile and happiness… I’ve heard news about Di Bian still wants a piece of Da Ze, is that so?”
Hu Zhao who was patting Dan Da on the back, halted. He looked at Fan Da who was showing a stern look, he sat aside and walked through the updates of Da Za with Fan Da.
Two days later, one more beauty made it to the next round, it was Zhu Shuxue from Xingyu. He Weifen from Huang Du and Qu Fang from Jing Guan didn’d stand out.
With that being said, Zhu Shuxue’s case was different than Yi Jie’s, she needed to polish her performance more and go through rounds of rehearsals, it still remained unknown whether she could perform on the Gala.
The internet went ablaze, again.
The internet supposed surely it was going to be Zhu Shuxue and He Weifen who could have the last laugh. The reason was simple, they had the most followers and they both had some background and contacts. To everyone’s surprise, it was Yi Jie who stood out and had the first win.
Qu Fang from Jing Guan always kept low profile, she was not particularly interested in The Gala in the first place, so she posted a light-hearted post on Weibo that she was going to spend some fabulous time with her family, attached with photos that she in the tourist spots in City B. Her fans were soothed by her gesture. While He Weifen didn’t take it that well, she posted something ambiguous on Weibo on an impulse.
Seeing their idol going through this, her fans launched a riot online, they claimed that there must be some shady deals going on under the table, He Weifen is younger and prettier and with more fans followed on social media than that Yi Jie, no way Yi Jie could outperform their idol, they were not convinced by this outcome, they found it hard to just accept it was Yi Jie who made the cut!
After leaving offensive, inflammatory and contumelious comments under Yi Jie’s account, the fans left comments under the crew of The Gala’s accounts, requiring them to release the videos and photos of Four Beauty, otherwise it was solid evidence that they were feeling guilty.
The internet was manipulated by He Weifen’s fans, Yi Jie took a toll, even He Bai was abused online. Some netizens went to the length that there were some affairs going on between Yi Jie and the director, that was why she made the cut.
To everyone’s surprise, maybe out of frustration, the crew really did release the photos and videos presented by Four Beauty, just as He Weifen’s fans wished.
The netizens were stoked, they swarmed into the post and made it viral.
The post was very simple and straightforward, just four links followed by each beauty’s name, and a P.S. to ask everyone to be a fair judge and not to tarnish people’s good names or tarnish The Gala.
The director made He Weifen’s link on top intentionally, then Qu Fang who didn’t make the cut and Zhu Shuxue whose cut was still to be confirmed, and Yi Jie who made the cut was last.
Netizens opened the links.
He Weifen presented a collection of photos and a video, honestly, the photos were great and the video was nicely made, but there was nothing new, just like her in the movies and magazines, people have seen that, it was just pretty, and that was it.
The netizens had seen all the comments left by He Weifen’s fans, how fabulous He Weifen was, how she always out-shined other actresses, so they assumed other beauties’ photos were less pretty.
Qu Fang’s photos were ethic-group themed, which was so political smart, she had never worn any folk costumes or traditional dresses before, people were quite stunned by her new look. Compared to He Weifen, Qu Fang left a better impression.
The netizens started to second guess the comments left by He Weifen’s fans, and they clicked Zhu Shuxue’s link.
Zhu shot a video. In the beginning of the video, she walked into an ancient garden, and her dressed changed as the landscape changed from spring to summer to fall to winter, and at the ending of the video, she walked to the camera from an arched door, then her makeup and style suddenly changed from elegant to dazzling, like the Peony Fairy.
