Chapter 123: Chapter 123 Zhonger
“Young President Gu is so handso!”
Mother Bo smiled with appreciation, only to hear a cold snort from beside her.
She turned her face in confusion and saw her son’s long eyes expressing indifference, the corners of his lips slightly lifting, revealing a hint of faint sarcasm between his brows.
Knowing her son better than he knew himself, she felt that Tingshen seed to have so kind of issue with Ye Xian, an unfair one at that.
“What’s wrong?”
Tingshen gave his frank assessnt of the scene, “Zhonger.”
...
Mother Bo, “…” Definitely not objective then.
“The lines are indeed a bit… After all, it’s an idol drama, but Ye Xian has played Young President Gu brilliantly, especially his interaction with Ning Xiner. Every ti I watch it, I feel like they are a match made in heaven, both talented and beautiful. I heard they even got together because of the drama, and are now a couple in real life too…”
“What did you say?”
Mother Bo was interrupted halfway through her speech, and looking at her son’s calm gaze that was devoid of ripples, she suddenly felt inexplicably uneasy.
“I said Ye Xian and Jiang Xin might have developed real feelings from the drama, and are together now in real life.”
The 29th episode on TV had just finished and advertisents began, Tingshen straightened his clothes, stood up, “Impossible.”
Mother Bo: “Why? Do you know the inside story?”
“He likes n.”
Having said that, Tingshen headed towards the study, leaving Mother Bo in a state of disarray in the living room, “…” What the heck?
Pang Kai touched his nose and quickly followed President Gu’s footsteps.
President Gu was too harsh. Mother Bo had finally found herself idolizing a celebrity again in her middle age, and as a CP fan no less, only to have her enthusiasm unceremoniously doused by President Gu.
As President Gu’s personal assistant, Pang Kai’s last task every day was to summarize and report the day’s work, and to arrange the entire schedule for the next day.
Today was no different, and as usual, he opened his iPad and ticulously reported the company’s business affairs. After reporting, he found… that President Gu didn’t seem to be listening at all?
“President? President?”
Tingshen sat behind his desk in a leather chair, twirling a tal pen in his hand, his thoughts far away, making it unclear whether he was contemplating or daydreaming.
“What’s the deal with Ye Xian?”
The man suddenly spoke up.
Pang Kai: “Ye Xian?”
“The matter with Jiang Xin.”
“Oh~”
Pang Kai imdiately understood what he was referring to.
“Here’s what happened. After ‘Business World’ aired a few days ago, the CP of Gu Chen played by Ye Xian and Ning Xiner played by Jiang Xin beca popular. It didn’t only boost the drama’s ratings, but also sparked the creation of real-person CP fans online. The fan’s na seems to be ‘Xianxin’ (Dedicated Heart), with dedicated forums and groups.”
As he spoke, Pang Kai flipped to the ‘Dedicated Heart’ CP topic on his iPad; it was already ranking in the top ten in the forum community.
Tingshen: “Publicity stunt?”
“This…”
Pang Kai skimd through the topic content briefly and shook his head.
“Not sure. There are pictures in the topic that look convincing at first glance. It’s hard to tell if they’re real or fake, and our company has always disdained using the thod of hyping up CPs to promote artists.
For instance, after only two episodes of ‘Business World’ aired, Ye Xian tweeted ‘I love eating hot pot with deep-fried sticks,’ to which Jiang Xin replied below, ‘That’s what she is.’ As the Chenxin CP got hotter, Jiang Xin even personally liked videos of their interactions. During interviews, her responses were vague and ambiguous. However, it cannot be ruled out that Jiang Xin’s Orange Lemon dia team is deliberately creating hype.”
“President, look at these photos!”
Pang Kai suddenly ca across so sensational pictures and passed them in front of Tingshen.
