Chapter 245 - 244: 244 The Main Character’s Downfall (1)
Bo Yan and Xia Siyu exchanged glances, oh, they got it, they had run into his fans.
The fans, holding their light sticks, were kept behind the barricades set up for receiving passengers. There were also airport security personnel maintaining order. Passengers in the shuttle bus might have only felt that the two of them looked somewhat familiar and had nice figures and good fashion sense. But the fans, they could identify their beloved idol and girl from a crowd just by their clothes, the bags they carried, and the hats they wore.
Both Bo Yan and Xia Siyu knew too well how terrifying the fans of popular stars could be. Controlling comments, strategic voting—all that (behaviors specifically for boosting popularity in the fan community) were basic operations, and having a three-day and night battle with rival fans over a disagreement was just part of the routine.
The typical fans of popular celebrities would treat male stars as if they were boyfriends, willing to spend money on them, willing to do anything for them, with the sole exception being that they could not let them date. Being involved with a guy was one thing, but with a girl, it was absolutely forbidden! Even if the male celebrity was of a higher status than the girl, the fans would still scrutinize the girl’s looks, popularity, amount of negative publicity, with more precision than they would in choosing their own boyfriends.
As for Xia Siyu, who had a bad reputation, she was basically seen as a harmful tumor by all fan circles, despised on sight.
Originally, Xia Siyu’s name was tied to Bo Yan for publicity, one moment claiming they were unwilling to cooperate, the next signing up instantly for movies and variety shows together. One moment they said the two were a duo and even slept together, then another moment claimed they didn’t get along and fought constantly. But just when the fans were relieved, a Weibo like was promptly arranged…
A Weibo like was never accidental; even if it was, it meant she had seen and followed it before for her to ‘accidentally’ like it!
Although the fans all despised Xia Siyu, they had to admit that she was indeed beautiful, very beautiful, extremely beautiful.
What if she really hooked up with their beloved idol? Then what would they do?
Even if she wasn’t the girlfriend, just a fling, the “sleeping together without responsibilities” kind, that wouldn’t be acceptable! How precious was their idol’s body, and how dare this scandalous artist defile him?
Even with Qin Baizhou and Wei Jingjing quickly pulling the topic from the trending searches, it still exploded like a bomb. Qin Baizhou could only suppress the news to the fifth spot at best, which was still a trending status.
The main issue was that it was a live show, and the artists’ schedules were relatively transparent. Any determined person could easily find out their airport departure times, and there you have it arranged.
Fans of Bo Yan were once known as the most comfortable fandom in the entire entertainment industry. Whenever there was fan circle strife, there was no need to waste words with the other party; you could just flaunt real achievements: a Gold Oscar award for best actor that instantly eclipsed all male stars under thirty in the China entertainment industry.
Bo Yan had the looks, the height, the education, and the family background—his fans always won arguments with more confidence than any others. And the best part was that he never flirted with scandals, keeping a clear distance from all female celebrities.
And then out of nowhere came Xia Siyu!
Facing the mountainous cries, Bo Yan frowned slightly, but he thought, she didn’t even need to confirm; as long as she didn’t deny, he would announce to the whole world right away: This was not his girlfriend; this was his wife—legitimate and legally-recognized, his bona fide spouse!
