CHAPTER 838: CHAPTER 840: THERE’S ALWAYS A SCHEMING COMMONER COVETING MY WIFE!

Continuation of the previous story chain:

[In the Mortal World, she fell in love with a boy, and the boy also liked her. They eventually became a couple, and on the day they got married, Yu Yun’s memories awakened.]

[The love in the Mortal World enlightened her, and she decided to lay down her arms and become a Buddha, hiding in the Mortal World to teach her husband to cultivate, becoming a pair of immortal lovers.]

...

[Unknowingly, the post count has piled up so high that the original poster can excitedly type the three words: The! End!]

"Hahaha!"

Yu Yanyu was eating hotpot, scrolling through Weibo while eating, and couldn’t help but burst into laughter when he saw this Weibo post.

What talent, these silly netizens are truly talented!

Qin Siqin looked at him with disdain: "What’s so funny? Hurry up and eat; your drool is about to spray onto the meat!"

Yu Yanyu handed her the phone, trying to hold back his laughter: "Just take a look for yourself, and you’ll understand."

Qin Siqin looked at it for a while and couldn’t help but laugh too.

Ren Xiao, curious, leaned over to see and also burst into laughter with a "pfft."

Qiu Zhenze didn’t take a look, but Yu Yanyu already sat next to him, vividly describing the netizens’ reactions, making Qiu Zhenze struggle to keep a straight face.

Yu Yanyu sighed, "If only Sister Jinxia were here, we could take a photo together and ride on the popularity of ’Xiao Xiang.’ Three out of the top ten hot searches are about ’Xiao Xiang,’ quite impressive!"

Qiu Zhenze pondered for a moment: "Even if she’s not here, we can take a photo and post it, tagging her. That’ll work."

Ren Xiao suggested: "We shouldn’t just tag her, but could also creatively include her in the photo, like enlarging her picture on a phone and pointing the phone at the camera, wouldn’t that include her in the shot?"

The others nodded in agreement, that made sense!

So, everyone around the hotpot struck various quirky poses and asked the hotpot restaurant staff to take a photo for them.

After taking the photo, they each uploaded the picture to their personal Weibo, publicly tagging He Jinxia, with each writing the same caption.

Yu Yanyu/Ren Xiao/Qin Siqin/Qiu Zhenze: [A little gathering at the hotpot restaurant [dog], just missing you @He Jinxia! Although you’re not here, we believe your spirit is with us!]

Netizens watched and couldn’t help but laugh.

He Jinxia might not be there, but her photo certainly is, hahaha!

This interaction quickly got a response from Jinxia.

Because Jinxia was already scrolling through Weibo, she didn’t need Luo You’s reminder to immediately see the new post.

Her eyes lit up as she came up with a clever idea. She swiped their Weibo photo and edited out the phone that had her picture.

Then, she enlarged this photo on her own phone and had someone take a picture of her with the phone picture together.

He Jinxia: [A little gathering meal [dog] you all are with me! [cheeky] [cheeky]]

[666, the goddess knows how to play!]

[Aaah, I’m begging the goddess of Yu Yun to post more beautiful pics with Emperor Bai Ze, Xiao Xiang girls need more!]

[In the drama, they went through countless hardships to be together, and in reality, they are also really good friends, makes this old mother very happy.]

[Hope He Jinxia can date Qiu Zhenze; Brother Qiu will surely not let you down!]

[While it’s nice to ship CP, please chase stars sensibly. Don’t pair people up so casually, it would be awkward for Fat Emperor and Brother Qiu!]

...

Sheng Yan happened to be scrolling through Weibo and saw this post, pausing in his actions.

He didn’t know if the two of them would be awkward seeing this, but at least he was feeling awkward.

Sheng Yan’s face darkened: There’s always some pesky subjects coveting my wife!

After seeing this comment, he immediately took out his phone and called He Jinxia. No more patience when you have a girlfriend, there’s no need to endure!

Yes, by all means, he felt hurt and urgently needed his girlfriend’s comfort.

Mr. Sheng stated: Distance is not an issue, as long as you want to act coy, any random reason can get you to the other person.

He Jinxia answered Sheng Yan’s call, feeling a bit baffled at first, but soon her whole demeanor was captivated by Mr. Sheng, and they started a cheerful chat.

On the other side, in the hotpot restaurant where Yu Yanyu and the others were.

When they decided to take a group photo in the hotpot restaurant and post it on Weibo, they anticipated that the location would be identified by paparazzi, who would come to follow them.

Back when they first entered the industry, they really hated the relentless pursuit of paparazzi, like sticky toffee you couldn’t shake off.

But now, they have become industry veterans, and their attitude towards such things has mellowed.

As their popularity continued to soar, the paparazzi’s shadowing became ubiquitous, a process every rising star has to go through.

Looking at it differently, the more paparazzi follow, it just means you’re really popular.

In this fast-paced era, everyone seems afflicted with a busy sickness, unable to stop, as if stopping would incur loss, and celebrities are no exception.

In the forefront of the limelight, some stars even develop pathological anxiety. If paparazzi stop following them, they would doubt their self-worth.

Fortunately, all the stars present had healthy mindsets and were already able to manage the relationship between popularity and the paparazzi well.

Qin Siqin suddenly spoke while eating the spicy red-hot pickled cabbage: "The second season of ’Rescue 5 Hours’ is about to begin filming. How’s your company’s discussion with the show, are you gonna participate again?"

Saying this, she smiled: "I’m really looking forward to us reuniting. Although participating in this reality show is exhausting, it brings great gains and plenty of attention too."

This was their first gathering since the New Year. They usually chat but rarely talk about work. Qin Siqin wasn’t too sure if others would continue with ’Rescue 5 Hours’

Since they’re from different companies, getting to know others’ schedules isn’t easy.

Qiu Zhenze asked: "From what you’re saying, did you accept?"

Qin Siqin nodded: "My agent said the show has great sincerity; the offered price pleased her very much, so she decided to take it for me, of course, the premise being I’m not against it."

Qiu Zhenze chuckled: "Such a popular reality show, my company evaluated it, and continuing to participate can bring more benefits. Plus, I haven’t been impressed by any recent scripts, so I accepted it too."

Ren Xiao also said: "I don’t have any major announcements. There was a secondary male role in a youth school drama wanting me, my agent almost agreed. Fortunately, the show contacted my company, and after some pondering, my agent decided to take the show for me and turned down that drama."

Qin Siqin raised an eyebrow: "Your agent finally didn’t misjudge. After ’Rescue 5 Hours,’ our popularity soared. You don’t need to take a secondary male role; you can take the lead instead!

Especially considering it’s a youth school drama, and everyone knows the typical state of such domestic school dramas—most are corny, rarely classic.

Taking a second lead isn’t impossible, but it should at least be something profound. Your popularity keeps rising; your profile should rise too, right?

In ’Xiao Xiang,’ you were a second lead with great popularity, so you can’t really justify taking a second lead in something worse than ’Xiao Xiang.’

These remarks were definitely meant to be reminders.
