==============================================================================================

 

Jiang Xinyue was a little embarrassed after receiving Liang Tian’s call. As an actor, she hadn’t understood her boyfriend’s anxiety as an idol, but she also knew that Liang Tian’s desire to transform wasn’t something he’d had for just a day or two. As a girlfriend, she was very supportive of him.

 

But this was a bit difficult.

 

She went to the hospital to visit Li Huairou with her agent once and expressed her apologies, but there were too many people present, and she couldn’t say anything. Not to mention talking to Ji Yingze in private.

 

But Liang Tian had mentioned it, and she could only give it a try.

 

So, she and Liang Tian went to the hospital again.

 

This time, they met Ji Yingze and Li Huairou without a hitch.

 

Li Huairou was talking with Jiang Xinyue. Ji Yingze had gone to the bathroom to wash fruit, and Liang Tian took the opportunity to follow him in.

 

It was just that after Liang Tian expressed his intentions, Ji Yingze directly refused. “I’m sorry, I don’t seem to have much time.” It was fine if it was only one song, but Liang Tian wanted his help to make the entire album. How was this possible!

 

Then he went past Liang Tian.

 

“Mr. Ji, you should think about it again. Just take it for Xinyue’s face.” Liang Tian reached out his hand to stop Ji Yingze.

 

=”What do you mean?” Ji Yingze frowned.

 

Liang Tian stared at Ji Yingze and said, “Who knows whether Li Huairou and the others know that you didn’t tie the rope tightly because you were peeking at Xinyue and your mind was wandering, causing Li Huairou to be injured?”

 

Ji Yingze’s eyes widened suddenly. Did he see it?

 

“Then do you know that you can be held liable for slandering others?” Li Huairou’s voice suddenly came from behind.

 

Ji Yingze and Liang Tian turned around and saw Li Huairou and Jiang Xinyue. Li Huairou was expressionless, while Jiang Xinyue was shocked.

 

After seeing Liang Tian follow Ji Yingze into the bathroom, Li Huairou had guessed that Liang Tian was about to blackmail Ji Yingze. Ji Yingze had a stuffy temperament, always keeping everything bottled up and never speaking out.

 

“Rourou.” Ji Yingze was a little flustered.

 

“Come here! You’re already so old but still can’t even say a word.” Li Huairou glared at him and said, “Mr. Liang, you must speak with evidence. If you act this way, I can sue you for slander! Although, I don’t know what your motive is for saying such words to disrupt the relationship between us. However, my brother and I grew up together, and I believe in my brother unconditionally. In this case, please don’t mention it again in the future. If you want to invite my brother to write a song for you, please follow the normal procedures and contact my brother’s studio through his agent. Don’t engage in these small thoughts.”

 

Liang Tian’s face flushed; he hadn’t expected that his words would be heard. In embarrassment, he left in a hurry.

 

Jiang Xinyue’s face was pale. She knew that Liang Tian had always wanted to cooperate with Ji Yingze, and it was even very urgent, but she hadn’t expected for Liang Tian to say such a thing.

 

Li Huairou turned to look at her. “Sister Xinyue, I really feel that you don’t properly see your boyfriend. He isn’t worthy of you.”

 

Jiang Xinyue bit her lip before saying, “I’m sorry. I’ll leave first.” Then she put on her mask, hat, and bag and hurried away.

 

Li Huairou sighed and turned to look at Ji Yingze. “Brother, do you have anything to tell me?”

 

Ji Yingze’s face turned pale. “Rourou, I’m sorry…”

 

“You haven’t wronged me. I was in the wrong in the first place. You haven’t had much athletic talent since you were a child, and you don’t understand this; I’m the one who pulled you on this show. It’s just that, Brother, you shouldn’t go on variety shows in the future. At most, you should be on talk shows. You don’t have a vision. Everyone sees it clearly, and you won’t even know if someone sells you short,” Li Huairou said chattily.

 

“Understood. Go back and rest!” Ji Yingze didn’t feel impatient, smiling instead. Since then, he could really unload all his burdens.

 

“When will I be discharged from the hospital? I don’t feel dizzy anymore.” Li Huairou was already impatient with being in the hospital. She wanted to go shopping, clubbing, and eating.

 

“I’ll go ask the doctor. It’s just that Mom wants you to rest for a few more days,” Ji Yingze said good-naturedly.

 

“Then, I want to rest at home,” Li Huairou said.

 

“Okay, I’ll ask the doctor. What do you want to eat? I’ll buy you some takeaway?” Ji Yingze said.

 

Jiang Xinyue got into the car, and Liang Tian was waiting for her there. When he saw her coming out, he said, “Xinyue, listen to my explanation.”

 

“What else do you have to say! Liang Tian, ​​I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person!” Jiang Xinyue could understand the urgency of Liang Tian’s transformation, but she couldn’t understand Liang Tian’s using such a method, even at the expense of herself!

 

“Xinyue! What I said is true! Ji Yingze likes you! Xinyue, help me…” Liang Tian said anxiously.

 

“There’s nothing more to say? Let’s break up!” Jiang Xinyue had already contacted her agent, and the agent immediately came to pick her up.

 

“You want to break up with me just for this trivial matter?” Liang Tian couldn’t believe his ears.

 

“Do you think this is a trivial matter? Hehe, Liang Tian, ​​how come I never found out that you were such a person beforehand?” Jiang Xinyue laughed angrily.

 

Liang Tian stared at Jiang Xinyue and said, “As an idol, I don’t reap my fans like leeks. I cherish my reputation, and I don’t get bad songs or bad plays. I just want to stick to my music dream, sing well for everyone, and release a high-quality album. Is that so wrong? I was just confused for a while, and I used the wrong method! Are you going to break up with me because of this?”

[(割粉丝韭菜) It means using your fans’s love for you to squeeze their money out of them]

 

Jiang Xinyue bit her lip, not knowing what to say. When she’d first dated Liang Tian, ​​it was naturally because of his character. Perhaps she’d really misunderstood him. He’d really just been confused for a moment.

 

Seeing that she didn’t say any more, Liang Tian secretly sighed in relief. “I’m sorry, I was confused today. I shouldn’t have done this. Xinyue, please forgive me!”

 

Jiang Xinyue raised her head and said, “A-Tian, ​​I believe that, with your talent, you’ll succeed sooner or later. Your dream will come true. It’s just that you can’t use this method. In fact, there are other excellent producers in the music world. There are many, so let’s think of other ways, okay?”

 

Liang Tian nodded and embraced Jiang Xinyue in his arms. “Okay.” But he was thinking, This angle should be able to get photographed clearly!

 

After he got in the car, he found that there seemed to be paparazzi in the parking lot. He’d originally planned to send a message to Jiang Xinyue, but the two had left separately. But, on second thought, Son of God would be disbanded in two months. As for the rest of the team members—those who were filming TV, those who were in variety shows, and those who were filming commercials, everyone was more popular than him and got a lot of traffic. He only hated himself; when he made his debut, the image of insisting on dreams of music and being aloof and arrogant was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Compared to other people, it really lacked explosive points.

 

Originally, if he could have successfully persuaded Ji Yingze to help him make an album, he could have continued to be a musician. But now it looked like it was time to change his mind.

 

Jiang Xinyue’s momentum had been good recently, and the Lantai variety show had boosted her popularity a lot. If a relationship between them was revealed at this time, he may lose a group of girlfriend fans in the short term, but the advantages outweighed the disadvantages in the long run.

 

Thus, Liang Tian made a decision.

 

On the front foot, Liang Tian and Jiang Xinyue had just left the hospital, and on the back foot, the news of their love was spreading on the internet. There were photos and videos, and the evidence was overwhelming.

 

The agents on the two sides quickly contacted the two of them. Jiang Xinyue and Liang Tian looked at each other, so they had to discuss countermeasures with the agent team.

 

On Jiang Xinyue’s side, the brokerage team’s advice was to admit the relationship. 

 

Jiang Xinyue was famous for her acting skills; whether she was in love or not had little effect on her. Of course, it also depended on Liang Tian’s intentions. In the end, the two of them made a Weibo post together. You can’t let the woman take the initiative to claim the relationship!

 

On Liang Tian’s side, his agent was furious. At first, he’d wanted Liang Tian to deny his relationship. But upon hearing Liang Tian’s explanation and seeing that the hot search for Liang Tian and Jiang Xinyue’s relationship had exploded, the agent had to agree.

 

Liang Tian put the phone down and turned around to look at Jiang Xinyue. “Let’s post on Weibo admitting it.”

 

“Is this okay? How about your fans?” Jiang Xinyue was a little worried.

 

Liang Tian took Jiang Xinyue’s hand. “It doesn’t matter. I’m ready.” He needed heat and traffic so that he could get what he wanted.

 

So the two posted on Weibo, one after the other, and admitted their relationship.

 

Just as Liang Tian and the brokerage team had thought, Liang Tian’s popularity rose rapidly after admitting their relationship. But, correspondingly, he began to lose fans in large numbers.

 

Especially after some fans had gone through all the Weibo history of the both of them, they pieced together their love history based on clues and came to the conclusion that Liang Tian had already been in love with Jiang Xinyue when he joined the Son of God.

 

Many fans felt like they’d been cheated. On Liangtian Daming Square, there were small essays by fans everywhere.

 

In just over an hour, Liang Tian’s Weibo following had decreased by more than 700,000.

 

Liang Tian had been using the trumpet to keep an eye on his Weibo followers, and his face was uncertain.

 

The situation on Jiang Xinyue’s side was much better. She had good acting skills. She’d played several popular characters one after the other, and she was also very low-key. Most fans were blessing this relationship. There were also a few fans who, seeing her fall in love with an idol, then losing their fans, thought that Jiang Xinyue’s taste was too bad.

 

The agent made several back-to-back calls, with all of them being invitations from variety shows and advertisements.

 

Liang Tian’s mood was mixed. Faced with such a result, he was already mentally prepared, but, seeing the loss of his fans, he still felt distressed, especially when he saw a few familiar IDs who all were his big spenders!

 

Jiang Xinyue came over. “A-Tian!”

 

“It’s fine, I’m fine, don’t worry,” Liang Tian said with a smile, holding Jiang Xinyue’s hand.

 

At this time, the agent sent over a message and asked him to forward it to Weibo. Since you’ve decided to make his relationship public, strike while the iron is hot and establish your image as a responsible man. By the way, play up the pitiful angle and say thank you to the fans. And if possible, win back their hearts. The navy’s already ready, and several big fans in the support club have also been contacted; as soon as he makes the Weibo post, the navy and support club will take the opportunity to bring the rhythm, try to reverse the trend, and win the girlfriend fans to become a real mother pink.

After a period of time, fans will accept this fact and then post some daily shows of conjugal love and create an infatuated character image.

 

Liang Tian let go of Jiang Xinyue’s hand, opened Weibo, copied the essay and photos carefully written by the brokerage team on Weibo, and clicked send.

 

“Xinyue, you’d better like my new Weibo or just forward it,” Liang Tian said without looking up.
