Last year, many things happened, among which He Jinxia and Sheng Yan made their relationship public and then swiftly prepared for their wedding, which was the most eye-catching thing; the second major event should be Yu Yanyu’s exit from the entertainnt circle.
Yu Yanyu, who beca a sensation due to "Xiao Xiangyu’s Many Sorrows" and "Rescue 5 Hours", had occupied an advantageous position last year and could have fully embarked on the second phase of his career, utilizing the popularity of these two works. Even if he wanted to explore the path of a top-tier star, it wasn’t impossible.
But he chose to make a brave exit at that ti, one week after He Jinxia and Sheng Yan made their relationship public.
That day, he posted a long blog on Weibo, describing why he debuted, his reflections on his journey within the circle until now, and how he learned many things from "Rescue 5 Hours". This program, in particular, made him feel more bewildered.
Becoming a star was quite an accidental thing; he joined in simply because he saw others doing it.
But after truly becoming a star, constantly wandering through notifications each day, he suddenly looked back and found that the initial nervousness, anticipation, and desire for success were slowly turning into steadiness, calmness, and routine.
He lost his passion for becoming a star and also lost the enthusiasm for attending notifications.
Yu Yanyu openly admitted: "In the beginning, using my skills to entertain the audience and making them like brought a great sense of achievent. But as notifications increased and repetition beca more frequent, he gradually turned into a format.
Handling every notification in a formatted way, completing the process in a formatted way, smiling at fans in a formatted way, everything started to feel so fake."
Yu Yanyu had long revealed on Weibo that he ca from a wealthy family and did not have much desire for money.
And in that letter he wrote to fans that day, he further ntioned that although he loved the spotlight, he did not pursue fa as intensely as imagined.
He belonged to a state of possessing everything, thus having no desires or demands for anything.
Therefore, after participating in "Rescue 5 Hours", he was deeply shaken as not every place was so peaceful and prosperous. Even in peaceful tis, many people were striving in dangerous fields trying to save lives.
Since then, Yu Yanyu had been deeply pondering whether he truly wanted to be a star, whether he was suitable for being a star, or whether he preferred doing other things?
Deciding to exit the entertainnt circle was a decision he made after a year of continuous self-questioning, serious thinking, and facing his inner self.
Certainly, exiting the entertainnt circle does not an leaving personal social dia. He jokingly said on Weibo that he would temporarily stop participating in all activities related to the circle, but due to previous popularity accumulations, perhaps he could still beco a small-scale internet celebrity.
No fashion shows, no program participation, no filming. Since the day he released his manifesto for leaving the circle, Yu Yanyu genuinely stopped mingling in the circle.
He walked freely on the streets like a regular person. At first, reporters curiously followed him, but later on, they dwindled until suddenly there were none one day.
Initially, fans would feel heartbroken, imploring him not to leave the entertainnt circle, but later these voices decreased, transforming into wishes for him to live better.
Not being a star, Yu Yanyu’s social activities on Weibo beca more frequent, making people feel his life was very fulfilling. Occasionally teasing the cats and dogs at ho, he often participated in charity events and learned various skills he was interested in, like tea art and flower arranging.
At that ti, because of Yu Yanyu’s unexpected exit from the circle, a mainstream voice erged among fans, suspecting it was related to He Jinxia!
These fans believed that Yu Yanyu had a brief interaction with He Jinxia or harbored an unrequited crush on her; anyway, the person he liked being together with his most admired idol was surely a significant blow.
Indeed, fans of Yu Yanyu all knew his most admired idol was Sheng Yan, often calling himself Sheng Yan’s "little brother" shalessly.
Initially, fans were afraid he would be confronted by the Imperial Army, calling him shaless.
Yet Yu Yanyu had nothing happen to him, and even years ago, when he directly called himself "little brother" on Weibo, he received a reply from Sheng Yan.
Emperor Sheng’s reply was as always cold, just a subtle "Hm", enough to let fans know their relationship was significant, with so speculating privately whether the two were related, but both dia and fans failed to uncover their connection.
Eventually, they could only attribute this to Tonghua Entertainnt, thinking since both were under the sa group, it was a friendly collaborative relationship; big stars helping small artists wasn’t impossible.
Later, so tried to mimic this "climbing up to a big brother" behavior but never received a response from Sheng Yan, quickly being mocked as scheming b*tches, embarrassed and ridiculed.
Such examples occurred several tis until no one dared to associate with Sheng Yan, leading to the belief that Yu Yanyu and Sheng Yan had so sort of relationship.
Yet aside from Sheng Yan’s initial "Hm" response, thereafter there were no further interactions with Yu Yanyu, leaving only Yanyu entertaining himself, thus slightly reducing the credibility of this conclusion.
In the entertainnt circle, many stars have relationships exposed that are true or false, sotis even insiders get mixed up, including dia reporters.
If you don’t actively prove it, who knows whether what you say is true or false, or just an orchestrated hype?
Given Yu Yanyu and Sheng Yan likely have so relation, and in previous years, Yu Yanyu and He Jinxia had many interactions, even admitting in public that the girl he liked was like He Jinxia, fans assud Yu Yanyu had feelings for Jinxia.
With a woman you felt for, and a "big brother" you admired deeply, news of them together, Yu Yanyu feeling conflicted might result in the idea of exiting the entertainnt circle, it’s not implausible!
At the ti, so genuinely silly fans even comnted under Jinxia and Sheng Yan’s Weibo, hoping they could counsel the silly one well so he wouldn’t rashly exit the entertainnt circle due to emotional impulses.
Such fans were few, but not none; previous speculation that silly one exited out of spite was widely accepted, even occupying several hot searches during that period.
Even later when Yu Yanyu solemnly clarified on Weibo, it didn’t help. His heart was undoubtedly wronged, asserting he never had any! Special! Interest! In He Jinxia!
Who would dare touch a big brother’s woman!
Yet nobody believed it _(:з)∠)_
Eventually, Sheng Yan genuinely responded to fans’ requests, personally inviting Yu Yanyu for a al to discuss "life and emotions" with him.
