Chapter 472: Dying Pathetically (2)
—— [I laughed my head off. You guys, look carefully at the back, Bai Wuxia is hiding from the camera! He must be feeling diffident!]
…
When Bai Wuxia saw that the banner was awarded to Xiang Yi, he was utterly dejected and furious.
This is the equivalent of putting him to shame in front of millions of viewers, isn’t it?
Bai Wuxia wanted to use the excuse of using the bathroom to muddle through it but a cameraman somehow happened to block him.
The cameraman, Zhang, who was Xiang Yi’s exclusive cameraman smiled at him faintly with an ambiguous intention.
‘Hmph, you’re trying to run after stealing credit from Xiang Yi?’
‘Dream on!’
Bai Wuxia: “…”
‘d.a.m.n, is this person sick?!’
He was already depressed and vexed enough when Jun Han, who was close by, suddenly applauded and exclaimed “Good, good! Xiang Yi is the best! Xiang Yi is the most outstanding person!”
He was very much like an elementary school student.
The others at the table knew what was going on and also applauded along.
For a while, the scene was like a commendation ceremony where the students went on stage to receive awards…
Bai Wuxia was caught in the middle like an outcast.
He had an awkward expression as he was torn between applauding and not.
There were jeers and mocking coming from the viewers of the live stream but some of Bai Wuxia’s very few die-hard fans tried to defend him.
—— [Xiang Yi is stealing the credit and honor from Teacher Bai, right?]
—— [I’m speechless, she has stolen all the limelight! If it wasn’t for Mr. Bai, how could Vase Fairy have received this banner?]
—— [Teacher Bai looks so pitiful. He’s still being ostracized and alienated at his age! Could it be that a certain actress is ganging up with the rest to exclude Teacher Bai?]
…
Of course, those brainless remarks were quickly countered by the Spicy Rabbits:
—— [Sorry our Xiang Yi is just that outstanding~~]
—— [Great, you’re the only competent one. Only you’re impressive and only you know the truth, okay?]
—— [Some people are pitiful and deserve sympathy but Bai Wuxia is just being pretentious, okay? Why aren’t he putting his eyes and brain to use when he clearly has them?]
…
In reality.
The police said a few more words of encouragement to Xiang Yi before leaving.
Jun Han quickly took the banner from Xiang Yi and said “Xiang Yi, your hand is injured, I’ll help you hold the banner! Let me interview you, how do you feel about holding a banner for the first time?”
s.h.i.+ Sui was holding a small dried fish and tempting Xiao Naofu with it. He said with a faint and languid smile, “It’s not the first time Xiang Yi has received a banner~”
The crowd was speechless.
“…”
‘Why does it seem that you are more proud than Xiang Yi herself?’
Xiang Yi pursed her lips and said shyly, “I really don’t deserve all the credit. It’ the result of all of our efforts. Director Zhu, please help me to divide this money among everyone. It’s been hard on everyone.”
The crowd all began to refute and said that Xiang Yi deserved to take all the money and that they can’t accept it.
Bai Wuxia, however, suddenly appeared at this time and made himself seem magnanimous as he said, “Since you have said so, I shall act on your behalf and divide this money. On the other hand, I don’t want any of this money, you guys can each be ent.i.tled to a greater share!”
Those who were clueless thought that he was being righteous and upright.
Even those who were slamming Bai Wuxia stopped typing hesitantly.
‘Hey, this person doesn’t seem to be that annoying, huh?’
Bai Wuxia was very proud of himself, and he felt that his ability to react on the spot was really superb!
He had turned adversity into an opportunity to gain the liking of others.
‘Young people, you guys are too inexperienced to be fighting with me!’
However, in the next moment, the girl’s tranquil voice sounded.
“Senior, you’re mistaken. I never intended to give you a share of this money.”
