C603 – The Gourd Children Are Cooked
K People’s face turned a shade of green.
What a classic case of arriving elated and leaving deflated.
The manager, witnessing the scene, grimaced with displeasure. “K People, we should really get going. It’d be mortifying if this video got out online.”
“Alright.”
K People, not daring to utter another word, bowed its head and made a beeline for the exit. To its astonishment, there was a large crowd at the door, brandishing signs.
“Park Ji, we love you!”
“Park Ji, you’re our idol!”
At the sight, K People straightened up, its heart swelling with pride.
?Ah, just as I thought, how could I be without fans? Here they all are, waiting at the door!
K People straightened its attire, a warm, welcoming smile on its face. With a light cough and a wave, it approached the fans: “Hello, everyone!”
And with that, it began to speak in a terribly broken Imperial Court language.
A few fans at the back turned around and gasped in recognition. Wasn’t this the K People oppa they had been eagerly awaiting?
“Look, isn’t that our K People… Uh…”
“Oh my goodness, I didn’t remember my K People being this unattractive.”
“Who is this ugly jerk?”
“Damn! My eyes! I need to wash them out! This is an eyesore!”
“How can someone so unattractive dare to be a celebrity?”
The fans started to mock K People one by one, with several covering their eyes in disbelief.
There’s no escaping it; comparisons can be cruel. Next to the average person, K People might be considered quite handsome.
But standing next to Su Ming, the gap was enormous, not just big, but a chasm as wide as the heavens are from the earth.
Most of these fans were the die-hard type, all fervor and fleeting enthusiasm. Seeing the object of their adoration looking so unappealing, they discarded their signs in disgust.
Trampling them underfoot, they lamented their previous blindness in following someone so unattractive!
Seeing their reaction, K People’s face turned an even deeper green. Suddenly, a wave of heat surged in its chest, and it spat out a mouthful of blood in shock!
“Foundation!”
“Foundation?!”
“Foundation, what’s wrong?!”
Nearby makeup artists and managers hurriedly rushed over to help.
Soon after, a flurry of short videos hit the internet, each with eye-catching titles.
?”Another Zhang So-and-So? Hired countless security guards, only to find they’re outnumbered by fans twentyfold!”
“K People from K People Country turn into an ugly mess?!”
“Loyal female fans of K People weep, revealing K People’s true, unattractive face!”
“K People’s partners unilaterally tear up contracts, refusing to work with the unattractive!”
“Why is this random guy at the airport ridiculously handsome?!”
The videos featured not only K People spitting blood but also Su Ming.
Comparing the two, the difference was stark: one was unmade-up, exuding natural masculinity and an air of affluence, while the other’s makeup was caked on thicker than a city wall!
Many of K People’s collaborations were instantly canceled, and for those that couldn’t be, the prices were slashed dramatically.
To be honest, the trip to the imperial court was supposed to be a money-making venture, but it didn’t even cover the plane’s fuel costs.
Moreover, K People’s domestic fans all jumped ship!
They’re now all set on coming to the imperial court to find that mysterious handsome guy from the airport – he’s just too handsome, beyond comparison!
“Find out who that guy is!”
“I want him gone!”
K People woke up from a nightmare in the hospital.
In the dream, he saw a world where every man, except for him, was as handsome as the guy from the airport.
What a nightmare, truly a nightmare!
Because in that dream world, he was the ugliest of them all!
……
Xiao Ke’er returned home safely.
Old Master Xiao was overjoyed.
After escorting Xiao Ke’er home and chatting with her for a bit, Su Ming hurried back to his own place.
“Brother’s back.”
As Su Ming was about to open the door, it swung open, and Little Qing greeted him with a sweet smile.
“Eh… How did you know I was back?”
Su Ming asked, curious.
“Because I heard my brother’s voice.”
Little Qing replied with a sweet smile.
“Alright, has anything happened at home these last couple of days?”
Su Ming stepped into the yard, closing the door behind him, with Little Qing following closely. “Nothing, brother, everything at home has been normal.”
“By the way, brother, your crops are ready for harvest.”
Little Qing’s sudden recollection prompted Su Ming to nod in agreement. He had hurried back for this very reason.
The Calabash Brothers, once wailing, were now ripe.
In the yard, a succession of Calabash Vines twined around the framework provided by the System.
Typically, a Calabash Vine would sprout numerous gourds.
But Su Ming’s vine was extraordinary, stretching across a vast expanse of land, and on this particular seedling, there was only one gourd.
?Su Ming warmed his hands and strode over to the base of the vine, scrutinizing the gourd with great care.
Hmm?
Something about this gourd seems off…
Despite a thorough inspection, nothing seemed amiss, yet something didn’t feel right.
Holy smokes!
This…
How can this gourd be so enormous?
Su Ming was astounded.
The vines had grown so extensively, blanketing the entire trellis and half an acre, that the true size was obscured. But upon closer examination, the gourd was nearly as big as half a person.
To put it bluntly,
if a child were to sneak inside, you wouldn’t even notice. It was ridiculously large!
Moreover, the gourd’s surface was a dazzling golden hue, gleaming brilliantly.
?This was truly a curious item.
Could it be a magical gourd?
Imagine standing in the street, holding the gourd aloft, and shouting, “I call your name; do you dare respond?”
Then, one by one, the villains would be sucked inside.
Incredible!
Su Ming chuckled, extending his hands to grasp the gourd firmly.
It felt icy cold, almost chilling to the bone. He took the gourd down and examined it meticulously.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you’ve obtained the Perfect Water Cleansing Pill. This pill is highly potent; just one can instantly purify any water into drinkable water, free from impurities and viruses, safe for consumption!”
“Ding! A single pill can purify a vast quantity of water!”
……
Upon hearing the mental prompt, Su Ming felt a tinge of disappointment.
Sigh…
I had hoped it would be a magical gourd.
Turns out this gourd is nothing more than a vessel.
Well, fine, I’ll begrudgingly accept it.
