Chapter 347: I Meant “Trash and Litter” Literally
“How is it okay that she pays for people to show up to her events? I now wonder if her sales figures for her books are real. Did she buy her own books in bulk?”
“Ha, she can buy as many books as she wants. At the end of the day, her sale isn’t as high as Master Feng’s. It must be maddening for her.”
“The most beautiful writer in UCC... that t.i.tle is being stripped away now right? In terms of appearance, Master Feng is multiple levels higher than hers. In terms of work produced... that’s not even comparable.”
“I don’t want our Feng Ci to have that t.i.tle. I think “the most beautiful writer in UCC” t.i.tle is now an insult since Yi s.h.i.+qiong was called that.”
“Hahahaha, I’m going to ride off this high for a year. How can someone be so funny? Hahahaha.”
“...”
Yi s.h.i.+qiong’s heart went numb while she stood in the middle of all this thunderous laughter. She felt dizzy.
She harshly glared at the girl who asked her if she was getting paid. Without any more words, she tried to leave.
That girl was unforgiving and grabbed onto Yi s.h.i.+qiong’s arm, “Hey, don’t leave! Are you paying us or what? Say the word! I’ve lined up for two hours! You haven’t paid me and are glaring at me? Who does that?!”
The other hired actors all crowded around her as well and were all shouting to be paid.
“I didn’t bring cash. You guys go ask whoever hired you!” Yi s.h.i.+qiong was being shoved around and she was going insane from it.
She stared at the line and wondered if there were any real fans of hers at all?
Why weren’t they helping her out? Why were they just watching her get pushed around?
Just as she wondered, someone from her line threw down her book, “Whatever. Looks like she’s not going to pay us.”
Someone else said, “I can’t believe the author I once liked is so humiliating. I liked her books originally, but she paid for actors to show up at her events? Asked her professor to attack another author? What kind of poor qualities does she have?! I’m no longer a fan!”
Then, she threw down her book and walked away as well.
A lot of people were disappointed by her and left after they threw away their book.
Others started to swing around their books and laughed, “I’m staying here for the drama! Hahaha, how fun!”
Yi s.h.i.+qiong watched all this and wanted to puke out blood.
Just then, the MC walked up to her and shouted after a girl who just threw down her book, “The trash can is right here. Friends, let’s not throw trash all over the place. We need to be environmentally friendly!”
Everyone laughed out loud yet again.
Yi s.h.i.+qiong felt her blood boil, “What do you mean by that!”
The MC covered her mouth as if she caught herself saying something wrong, “Ah, sorry! So sorry, Ms. Yi. I’m not calling your books trash, I just don’t want them to litter. Ah, look at me. Look at my dumb lips. By trash and litter, I meant that literally, I’m not implying anything metaphorically.”
Yi s.h.i.+qiong, “...”
“Hahahaha...” Mu Jinghang slapped his own leg, “This MC is great!”
The fans downstairs loved this as well.
Yi s.h.i.+qiong endured everyone’s mocking and wondered why she hadn’t pa.s.sed out.
Several girls were also asking her for money as they crowded around her.
She looked around and tried to find Guo Yunxia. Instead, however, she saw Fu Siying.
She almost forgot she existed!
That girl’s been sitting around dumbly since the beginning. Other than having an argument against that boy in the morning, Fu Siying hadn’t helped out at all!
Yi s.h.i.+qiong didn’t have much time to think this through. In a hurry, she shouted at Fu Siying, “Siying, did you bring cash?”
