Chapter 286 - A Frenzied Love The Moment She Debuted
With this result, she was very outstanding at the school. Furthermore, s.h.i.+ Xuexin had used her connections in school to help her choose a film academy. Her future prospects were limitless.
Compared to s.h.i.+ Jin"s unspeakable results, this score was indeed worth celebrating. Even Chu Ling was there to celebrate for her.
s.h.i.+ Xuexin and Chu Jia had been setting up the celebration venue all day. Until now, they had not paid attention to s.h.i.+ Jin"s partic.i.p.ation in the international compet.i.tion on Weibo.
Everyone was praising Chu Jia.
"Jia Jia, you"re not bad, huh? Getting into a film academy this time and becoming a big star. Don"t forget us old friends."
Chu Jia held her wine gla.s.s and smiled. "How could I? We are friends for life."
s.h.i.+ Xuexin smiled and said, "When you are in the entertainment industry and working with Brother Chu Ling, your future will be limitless."
"Thank you for your kind words, Sister-in-law." Chu Jia naturally knew what s.h.i.+ Xuexin liked to hear. She called her sister-in-law affectionately.
Although Chu Ling hated it when people used him to gain attention, Chu Jia was his cousin, so their relations.h.i.+p was naturally different. Moreover, the two families had a good relations.h.i.+p. Chu Jia"s relations.h.i.+p with him was incomparable to Deng Yufei"s relations.h.i.+p with him.
"I wonder how many points s.h.i.+ Jin got?" someone gloated.
"I heard that she didn"t do well. There"s no news from Second High."
Someone whispered, "But I heard that there"s no news from Second High School because Princ.i.p.al Lu is still persuading s.h.i.+ Jin to apply for a better school. Is that why he deliberately suppressed her results and didn"t announce them to the public?"
Someone immediately retorted, "How is that possible? If she really did well, would they not announce it?"
When Chu Ling heard about s.h.i.+ Jin, he tightened his grip on the wine gla.s.s.
Speaking of which, it had indeed been a while since he had heard from s.h.i.+ Jin. How was she… doing?
When s.h.i.+ Xuexin saw Chu Ling"s expression, she did not feel good. However, she perked up and said, "Don"t make wild guesses. Now that s.h.i.+ Jin is successful and famous, her results are no longer important to her. Actually, no matter what, as long as she lives well, there"s nothing to really say."
This reminded Chu Ling that s.h.i.+ Jin was different from before.
In the past, she had been a pitiful girl that no one in the s.h.i.+ family cared about. Now, she was a celebrity with a little bit of fame. She didn"t need anyone to pity her anymore.
Someone deliberately wanted to make s.h.i.+ Xuexin happy. He took out his phone and immediately searched for s.h.i.+ Jin"s news. He said, "Do you believe that the information I found is true dirt on s.h.i.+ Jin?"
"Hahahahaha, I do believe it. You want to use this to go to a bar?"
When everyone opened Weibo, many of them had their mouths fall open in disbelief, s.h.i.+ Xuexin slowly said, "Everyone, don"t be like this. There"s no need to treat s.h.i.+ Jin as a joke. Let"s drink."
When they saw the few people on Weibo, they reacted as well. "That"s right. Forget it. I"m not watching anymore. What"s so good about s.h.i.+ Jin?"
However, Chu Jia did not give up and s.n.a.t.c.hed the phone from one of them. "What"s there not to see? Weibo is a public platform. Since there"s information about s.h.i.+ Jin on it, there"s nothing wrong with us looking at it."
s.h.i.+ Xuexin noticed that Chu Ling did not look too good and could not help, but twist her arm.
Chu Jia, on the other hand, felt that s.h.i.+ Xuexin was being too cautious. There was no need for her to give s.h.i.+ Jin any face in front of Chu Ling. She immediately started reciting. "s.h.i.+ Jin appeared at the venue of the International Mathematical Olympiad today and partic.i.p.ated in the Mathematical Olympiad. According to sources, she obtained…"
Her voice became softer and softer, and the atmosphere became quieter.
Chu Jia could not continue reading. Her friends had already seen this line and the content was that s.h.i.+ Jin had gotten full marks, first prize. The most valuable first prize.
That was why everyone agreed with s.h.i.+ Xuexin that they were not going to watch or pay attention to s.h.i.+ Jin"s news. However, Chu Jia insisted on reading it. Everyone felt awkward.
After a while, Chu Ling, who hadn"t said anything, said, "Alright, it"s just the first prize. Stop looking."
The atmosphere became lively again. "That"s right. Our Xuexin was the top scorer in the college entrance examination before. How can we compare?"
s.h.i.+ Xuexin revealed a gentle smile. She had nothing to be compared with s.h.i.+ Jin, but Chu Jia was different. They were both students from Second High School, and they were in the same cla.s.s, but s.h.i.+ Jin had left her so far behind. Chu Jia couldn"t bring herself to be embarra.s.sed.
Her celebration party today seemed a little boring.
She wanted to read s.h.i.+ Jin"s scandalous news. Her hand slipped and she tapped on s.h.i.+ Jin"s performance at the Strawberry Music Festival.
In the video, s.h.i.+ Jin revealed a stunningly charming smile. The audience cheered and whistled thunderously. Everyone was shouting her name.
She was singing "The Moon Represents My Heart".
Chu Jia quickly switched off her phone and looked up at Chu Ling and s.h.i.+ Xuexin. Chu Ling was already in a daze. He gripped his wine gla.s.s and did not move for a long time.
s.h.i.+ Xuexin"s expression stiffened slightly.
The atmosphere became awkward again. Finally, Chu Jia"s celebration came to an end.
s.h.i.+ Xuexin followed Chu Ling out. "Brother Chu Ling!"
She shouted a few times before Chu Ling turned around.
"You"ve been drinking. I"ll get the chauffeur to send you back."
"No need, it"s not good to be photographed by the paparazzi." Chu Ling rejected her and reached out to touch her hair. "You drank too, go back and rest early."
"Brother Chu Ling…"
Chu Ling smiled. "I will take good care of myself."
After he got into the car, he got the driver to switch to a radio station. s.h.i.+ Jin"s song was playing on it. Her voice was as clear and unique as it had sounded during the other song he had just heard.
Chu Ling saw her dreamy face appear before his eyes… and for a moment, he was lost in thought.
In the interview today, s.h.i.+ Jin had said that the song was written and sung for the person she liked. This could be considered a direct confession.
Everyone on the Internet was guessing at who this man was.
s.h.i.+ Jin"s male fans were crying and saying that they had fallen out of love. There were even people who expressed their dissatisfaction with her.
This was the first time a talent show artist had announced that they had someone they liked right after debuting.
Some praised her for her boldness, while others said that she was too willful.
Yes, how could it be just being willful? Had she and her manager considered the impact of this?
Chu Ling scrolled through Weibo and saw that there were still many people attacking her. However, the remaining fans became even more loyal.
They were more rational as well. "s.h.i.+ Jin is already twenty years old.. It"s a good thing that she has someone she likes now that she"s an adult. Didn"t you and I also gush over boys at an early age?"
