“Tell me first!” s.h.i.+ Hanchu took another piece of ice.
“If you add a tender green tea leaf into the ice, it’ll taste even more refres.h.i.+ng. Don’t you agree?”
Hearing Su Manman say this, s.h.i.+ Hanchu couldn’t help but smile. “You sure know how to think!”
“Then let Little Song try it!” Su Manman said.
“Alright, I’ll let him try it later…”
After saying that, the two of them continued reading their scripts with ice in their mouths.
Su Manman felt at ease as she got closer to s.h.i.+ Hanchu.
Very quickly, “The Olden Days” started broadcasting on various television stations.
As expected, once the first episode was broadcasted, Su Manman gained countless fans.
Just like the trailer, the audience wasn’t disappointed by Su Manman’s performance.
The screen was filled with comments…
[Elder Feng Yi, so awesome…]
[My mommy is asking me why I’m prostrating in front of the screen with Elder Feng Yi on it!]
[Please rest well, Elder Feng Yi!]
[Ahhhh… Elder Feng Yi is super cool! I want to marry her!]
[Elder Feng Yi is the most beautiful in the world. Little Phoenix is nothing!]
[Am I the only one who thinks that Elder Feng Yi’s looks are slaying? Is Little Phoenix Emperor really supposed to be the number one beauty? Did the director randomly pick an actor to act as Little Phoenix with his feet?]
[Aiyo, I didn’t feel it when I was reading in the past, but now that I’m watching this on TV… I feel that Little Phoenix has a strong taste of green tea.]
Su Manman’s character, Elder Feng Yi, had already surpa.s.sed the female lead by several times in popularity. She had become so popular that it was as though she was the female lead.
Her looks were clearly superior to Meng Yuqiao’s.
Her acting skills had beaten Meng Yuqiao too.
Meng Yuqiao was probably the most unhappy female lead in history.
In addition, the video of her quarreling with Su Manman, accusing her of imitating Jiang Mingzhu appeared to confirm Elder Feng Yi’s uninhibited character. It made people regard Meng Yuqiao, the actress that played the role of the female lead, as two-faced in reality.
Fans would leave a comment every day on “The Olden Days”‘s official Weibo account.
The contents of the comments were basically…
[Wis.h.i.+ng for another great day today for Elder Feng Yi.]
[Good morning, Elder Feng Yi!]
[I just came from my man’s Weibo, and I purposely came to give my kudos to Elder Feng Yi.]
[Daily pet.i.tion to change the female lead! Our Elder Feng Yi is the most beautiful!]
[Director, I hope you can give Elder Feng Yi a good ending. If you kill Elder Feng Yi like in the original work, I’ll send you a knife.]
[I hope Elder Fengyi would be young and live forever. She shall be queen and torture that adulterous pair to death!]
[I want to ride off into the sunset with Elder Feng Yi. That b.i.t.c.h, Phoenix Emperor, and sc.u.m, Dragon Emperor, aren’t invited! Please just die!]
The fans would be posting messages like this on their Weibo every day…
#Did you curse the d.a.m.ned dragon and phoenix today?#
#Has Elder Feng Yi become queen today?#
#Today is another day of Elder Feng Yi’s coolness!#
The number of Su Manman’s fans increased dramatically, and they called her Elder Feng Yi…
Perhaps because Su Manman’s character had left such a deep impression in the public’s heart, some hardcore fans even went to the original author’s Weibo account to scold him, asking him if he had a good conscience, and why he had written off such a good character, Elder Feng Yi, to her demise. Elder Feng Yi was the true hero of the story.
The original author felt helpless…
No matter what, once “The Olden Days” was broadcasted, Su Manman became the biggest beneficiary and became extremely popular.
There was another wave of olive branches extended to Su Manman by big advertisers and endors.e.m.e.nts.
Tu Jie was a steady person and didn’t want to offend everyone. He said that Su Manman was filming Director Chen Wenhua’s movie for the time being and didn’t have the time to take on the commercial.
He had a plan in mind. He wouldn’t accept such a casual advertis.e.m.e.nt for Su Manman, no matter how much endors.e.m.e.nt fees were offered.
Su Manman’s endors.e.m.e.nt deals had to come from high-end and extravagant brands. This would benefit Su Manman’s image.
Swamped with work, Du Lingyang, who didn’t have the time to visit the filming Su Manman, inevitably felt jealous after seeing how popular Su Manman was after “The Olden Days” was broadcasted.
Why did it seem so easy for others to succeed, while he had to go through so much hards.h.i.+p in the past to get where he was at today.
He had only become popular in the industry after he stole Jiang Yis.h.i.+’s composition from Jiang Mingzhu.
Du Lingyang also knew that many people had been saying that ever since that alb.u.m, Du Lingyang was no longer able to produce an astonis.h.i.+ng song. It was as if his talent had suddenly died.
However, his fans had always supported him.
With Du Lingyang’s current status in the music industry, even if he didn’t have much room for improvement in the future, at least… he was very stable.
He even had the thought to buy great songs from others and turned them into his own.
However, with his current status in the music industry, he was afraid of the consequences. What if the person who sold the song were to spout nonsense after he released the songs? Even though they would sign a confidentiality agreement, he could just bid his good reputation a farewell if this happened.
Du Lingyang shook his head. The risks were too high for him now!
There was so much to do. Not only did he have to prepare a new alb.u.m, he also had to get close to Su Manman… to fish out what Jiang Mingzhu had said to her about him.
He also had to worry about those netizens who said that his talent was over…
Du Lingyang sighed. After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he put on his cap and mask and went to visit Su Manman.
Today, Su Manman and s.h.i.+ Hanchu were filming intimate scenes in the condominium, the kind that was sweet and relaxed…
There were many scenes needed because these would be used as flashbacks in the future.
In the first scene, s.h.i.+ Hanchu was wearing an ap.r.o.n and preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Su Manman, who had just woken up and had curly hair that reached her waist, was wearing s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s large t-s.h.i.+rt. She walked over and hugged s.h.i.+ Hanchu from behind. She then stuck her head out from under s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s armpit and looked at s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s slender fingers that were cutting bread…
“I think your fingers are more delicious than bread!” When Su Manman spoke, her eyes sparkled like a little fox.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu smiled helplessly. He put down the bread knife and bread and carried Su Manman up.
Su Manman let out a delicate shriek before s.h.i.+ Hanchu placed her on the counter and planted a kiss on her lips. His magnetic voice was especially alluring. “Stop fooling around. Be good…”
Su Manman sat on the counter and watched as s.h.i.+ Hanchu made a sandwich for the two of them. Her fair and beautiful fingers pinched the fruit that s.h.i.+ Hanchu had cut. She ate one and brought the other to s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s lips.
Her actions were suggestive, but her eyes were pure. She tilted her head, looking so seductive that it made one’s heart itch.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s eyes narrowed, and his Adam’s apple bobbed. He opened his thin lips and was about to bite the fruit when Su Manman smiled and put it into her mouth. Her eyes were filled with slyness and pride.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu looked at Su Manman with a doting gaze. Just as he brought the fried egg over, Su Manman brought another strawberry to s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s mouth.
