Ren Xin used her newly created account to post some intimate evidence of Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng, and she was ecstatic.
【They really make the perfect couple!】
To her surprise, this actually attracted some CP fans, who started claiming that the two of them were a heavenly match!
On the internet, there were numerous cult-like CP fans, with many, like Ren Xin, enjoying their own fan fantasies without attracting much attention.
Every day, she checked in, posted various ambiguous evidence of the two, and even using the same items sparked thousands of discussions.
【My dear sisters, these two are really a match made in heaven. Eating this sugar makes me feel that even if I failed my exams right now, I wouldn’t be too upset.】
【They really match well, do you think they’re really together? Just thinking about it is so exciting! Who do you think is on top?】
【It must be our Gu Pan’an.He has the dominant trait, and his words are full of sexual tension. Oh my god, as expected, good men are made for men.】
Ren Xin joined in, 【I really hope they get together. Only Mu Feng is worthy of being with the Best Actor, other CPs are poison, not sweet at all. Only our ancient tomb CP is the right path!】
This statement quickly attracted a lot of fans of other CPs. Initially, everyone was quietly supporting their own ships without bothering anyone, but someone had to praise one and trash all the others, which was unforgivable.
And so, various flashy CP fans joined the battle.
Ren Xin watched happily as people started insulting her, with some even accidentally hurting each other. Soon, the issue made headlines.
It was perfect!
However, the commotion quickly quieted down, seemingly due to Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng’s agency stepping in to suppress the news.
So what could Ren Xin do? A lot of the material came from paying for it. She couldn’t just let it go without doing anything.
Thus, she posted on Weibo.
【I only stand for the Ancient Tomb CP, all other CPs are cults. Anyone who disagrees, come and fight!】
This stirred things up again, and a new chaotic battle began. Some casual fans, seeing these crazy fans, started backing off.
This caused some fans of Gu Pan’an and Mu Feng to drift away, and it also hindered the publicity and gossip planned by the agency.
Gu Pan’an’s face was as dark as a storm cloud, and he coldly asked his manager, “Who’s behind this?”
The manager helplessly replied, “We’ve looked into it, it’s really a misunderstanding. A CP fan got a bit too carried away with you and Mu Feng, posting some photos of him coming to your place. At first, no one thought much of it, but then a blogger named Ren Xin, who’s all about nourishing, took the opportunity to promote it.”
Mu Feng, looking just as displeased, walked in and asked angrily, “What are we going to do about this? My manager and Chen Ruowei’s manager had planned everything. We were going to hype up our CP once the drama aired to gain some traffic, but now they’ve directly spoken out against it, afraid of getting involved.”
Gu Pan’an, still fuming, tried to calm him down, “Leave it to me, I’ll get you a satisfactory result.”
Mu Feng shot him a sideways glance and pouted, “You’d better. Otherwise, I won’t forgive you.”
Gu Pan’an smirked, “Darling, tell me, how would you not forgive me?”
Mu Feng shyly glanced at Gu Pan’an’s manager, signaling him that there were others present, so he should stop.
The manager, understanding the hint, quietly left and stood outside, listening to the discordant sounds coming from the room, feeling somewhat emotional.
Right now, what was the difference between him and the emperor’s eunuch? The emperor dotes on the concubine, and he can only stand at the door, keeping watch.
Making money is truly hard!
Meanwhile, Ren Xin was busy cultivating her own paparazzi account. She spent more money to hire six more paparazzi to stake out other celebrities. She had one rule for eating gossip: not looking for explosive stories, but only the real gossip!
She also started learning the techniques of staking out celebrities, and it was all knowledge. After following a few celebrities, she realized how difficult it was to make money and get good material.
Everyone had it tough, but raising wages was absolutely not an option.
One day, Ren Xin was happily playing her new game, ready to rant and vent when she got a call from the troublemaker paparazzi.
“Gold Sister, I’ve got a big story.”
Ren Xin absentmindedly asked, “Did you get pictures of the two of them in bed?”
“Not at all! Actually, this isn’t even their news.”
Ren Xin: “???” Was he openly slacking off?
