Why Not Soar Your Majesty

Chapter 49.1 - An anti that goes too deep naturally becomes a fan 2

That night, the people who partic.i.p.ated in the big grilled skewers event included Qiao Yijing, Xiao Lin and Xia Ziyang.

Wearing sungla.s.ses at night wasn’t exactly appropriate and wearing a face mask while trying to eat wouldn’t be comfortable.

So Mu Cheng and Tang Xiao just wore hats as disguises.

H City had a street filled with food and they had a food festival too so the 5 people rushed towards the grilled skewers section.

They quickly ordered a round and snacked on chips while they waited for their skewers.

The local news also purposely asked a reporter to livestream the food festival too.

As a result, Mu Cheng and Tang Xiao made an unwitting appearance in the background.

The camera panned to them and at that moment, Mu Cheng was pinching Tang Xiao’s face.

The most important part was that the reporter hadn’t recognised who they were in that group, he even very excitedly asked Tang Xiao a question, “Excuse me, what do you think of the food festival tonight?”

Tang Xiao was a bit dumbfounded at the question, answering a bit dumbly, “It’s alright.”

The reporter continued to ask, “Did you bring your friends along too?”

Tang Xiao nodded.

The camera then panned away.

Before anyone had reacted, that section had already been streamed on TV.

H City’s citizens who were watching television, firstly, thought that the couple was a bit obvious with their PDA, clicking their tongues.

When they looked again, they finally reacted, f***!

Wasn’t this the Tang Xiao who was on the headlines!

F****!

To her side, isn’t that Mu Cheng!!!!

The internet exploded.

Su Bai’s fans all congregated and started swearing on Tang Xiao’s Weibo, spitting that she got in between Su Bai and Mu Cheng.

Whereas Mu Cheng’s fans rubbed their hands in joy.

Mu Cheng had been a bit too loveless lately, and even with Su Bai’s rumours, there were no photos!

It was all a fan’s fantasies.

So as they watched Mu Cheng’s colleagues in the entertainment circle marry off, one by one, only Mu Cheng had no movement.

Even the entertainment’s big wigs wondered if Mu Cheng was h.o.m.os.e.xual.

But now this was streamed, their male idol did like girls!

Male idol finally doesn’t have to continue being other people’s best man!

Their hard earned money finally didn’t have to be other people’s red pockets!

But in the outside world, there were more people who said Tang Xiao was holding onto Mu Cheng’s thigh.

Xiao Lin turned off comments on Tang Xiao’s Weibo but there were still a lot of netizens who were online and spreading comments.

Of course, Tang Xiao wasn’t the only one who got famous overnight.

The reporter that night, also got famous.

He was facing Tang Xiao, Mu Cheng as well as QIao Yijing, and actually didn’t recognise a single face? He even treated them like ordinary citizens and interviewed them.

And Tang Xiao even honestly answered truthfully.

These two people suddenly became the ‘dumbfounded couple’.

The meme appeared on some corner of Weibo, something about Tang Xiao being the true depiction of ‘dumbfounded’.

Or, it was two actors, a director, relying on grilled skewers to try to get on the news.

When Tang Xiao watched the stream, she felt like her face was really stupid.

Chief Ning rushed over and didn’t say anything before rolling up his sleeves and wanting to beat her up.

The air conditioner’s remote was already in his hand as Tang Xiao jumped and dodged behind Mu Cheng.

“Come out here.” Chief Ning was clearly furious.

These two days, he’d been extremely busy.

In a single distracted moment, he missed it and this happens?

“Don’t hurt her.” Mu Cheng said.

“Did Tang Xiao eat your family’s rice growing up? She’s not yours to take care of.”

Mu Cheng didn’t give in. “She can eat my family’s rice.”

The two people were stuck in a deadlock, neither letting the other get an advantage.

Mu Cheng protected Tang Xiao as Chief Ning wanted to drag Tang Xiao out.

In the end, she was protected well.

For the sake of not making Chief Ning feel awkward, Xiao Lin very considerately gave her arm to him so he could pull on her arm instead.

Chief Ning threw the remote on the sofa. “Alright, come out. From a young age, when have I hit you?”

Tang Xiao smiled flatteringly, pulling at Chief Ning’s sleeve.

Normally, Chief Ning might hit her, roast her a bit, but once that’s over, it means it’s all clear.

“These few days, don’t leave the house. In the future, if you want to do anything, tell me first. Last night, the microphone was already pa.s.sed in front of your face and you’re still slack jawed? When I saw your dumb face, I already wanted to shoot you off to the Philippines.” Chief Ning pinched his forehead.

Tang Xiao: &h.e.l.lip;..

In the afternoon, they were originally supposed to wait for Chief Ning to prepare and pick them up to go back home.

But instead of Chief Ning, they got Su Bai instead.

Su Bai wore a long white dress, like a fairy.

Compared to Tang Xiao who was in jeans and a t-shirt, this was the difference between the heavens and the earth.

“I came to see if I could help you with anything.” Su Bai opened her mouth and this was what came out.

Tang Xiao silently sighed, smiling as she welcomed her inside.

“Last night, when you were filmed with Mu Cheng, it must have been disturbing for you.” Su Bai’s voice was pleasing to the ear, gentle and weak, especially moving.

Tang Xiao gave her a cup of milk, “It’s alright. I’m a bit dim-witted, so I don’t really care about what they think.”

Su Bai laughed, evidently understanding, “Tang Xiao, don’t be so opposed to me. I’m exactly like you so I understand you the best.”

Tang Xiao didn’t say anything, silently waiting for the next part of her words.

“When I first entered the entertainment centre, Mu Cheng was already standing at the top. He had a lot of fans, and fans don’t hope for their idols to get married. Even if they do get married, they hope that their idol will marry someone who will match up to them. I always thought that if I could become better, would I be able to stand by his side? So all of these years, I’ve been trying my hardest to stand by his side.” As Su Bai spoke, her expression was desolate. “But, now he’s already made his choice.”

“En.”

“Today, I came, because I heard director Qiao say that you can go even further. So if you can, why not try it out? Become someone even better, someone worthy of standing by Mu Cheng’s side.”

Su Bai’s words stirred something in Tang Xiao.

TL note:

Other people’s red pockets - you give red pockets to the married couple, so in this case, they finally didn’t have to give other people red pockets, but they could give their idol a red pocket for his marriage.
