Falling in Love With the Male God

Chapter 19 - Hype limit

By the time Lin Qin and Meng Chao came out of the kitchen carrying noodles, Jin Feiyun's trumpet* was exposed by the studio's acquiescence.

While the four people in the villa were slurping noodles, news about Jin Feiyun landed in a hot search.

[Jin Feiyun's trumpet], [Jin Feiyun's love exposure], and [Jin Feiyun's cohabitation lovers exposure] three hot searches firmly occupied the top three of the hot search list.

Jin Feiyun was originally a small traffic flower*. As soon as this ambiguous news was released, almost the entire Weibo started discussing this matter, and the rhythm of the marketing account also took off.

The most forwarded post was from the Weibo account named "Fei-".

Fei-: Us. [picture]

The accompanying picture was a selfie where Jin Feiyun showed half of her face, while there was a man behind her standing on the herringbone ladder holding paint seriously. Plus, this photo was posted coupled with the heading "us." This was intriguing wording, and it was impossible not to make people feel ambiguous.

This picture accompanied the news of this Weibo account being Jin Feiyun's trumpet, although it felt as if it was announcing a romance the ambiguity made it feel as if there was even more intimate than announcing a romance.

After the popularity of the whole network was brought up, a marketing account posted a speculation——

[The Archbishop in the circle: Am I the only one who thinks that the back of the man behind Jin Feiyun’s picture looks like Film Emperor Meng? Judges, do you think it is possible to...]

The lesser the probability of something happening, the more people would be intrigued by it, making people think about it.

Then first the comments were done by the Navy*——

[TN: *paid accounts who act as real people, but in fact are paid to guide the audience]

[No, you are not alone, I also think this looks like the back of Film Emperor Meng. 】

[Oh my God, what amazing truth, Film Emperor Meng and this little flower* Are they really together? 】

[TN: *not too famous new actress ]

[I just thought it was just Jin Feiyun's love affair that got exposed. I didn't expect to eat such a big melon. 】

Seeing this, fans of the Meng Chao swept in and quickly wiped out the remarks of the navy.

[My Meng Ge* is filming "We Are Together" reality show, please don't bring him into this show. 】

[TN: *brother ]

[That is, my dad Meng's appearance fee is very expensive, are you ready to give it for adding his name here? 】

[Hahahaha, from where did this 18th-line* dare to touch porcelain** of my Film Emperor Meng? Don't you look at your coffee position***? 】

[TN: * Not famous artists are usually called 18th line]

[TN: **trying to take advantage]

[TN:***the status someone has in the industry ]

[Don't say such unpleasant things upstairs.* Jin Feiyun is also a popular traffic flower, it's not a big deal, at best is a white lotus green tea lady's watch! 】

[TN:*the commenter above]

[A certain chicken essence is interested in rubbing off the traffic of my film emperor? There's a rush here. 】

The fans of Meng Chao were famous in the circle for being sturdy and krypton gold* bigwigs. Jin Feiyun's studio invested a lot of money in the circle by hiring this Weibo account with high traffic to bring the rhythm, but after the water army was brushed out and was torn apart by Meng Chao fans, the account finally deleted this post silently.

[TN: *krypton gold bosses usually refer to players who recharge a lot of money in the game]

The operation of this ‘the archbishop in the circle’ was also extremely exaggerated.

However, because this news was about Meng Chao, the statement that the photo was actually Meng Chao's back was still posted on Weibo.

Ten minutes later, five keywords such as [Meng Chao Jin Feiyun], [Meng Chao Jin Feiyun living together], and [Meng Chao Jin Feiyun's love exposure] were aired on the hot search, and more and more people realised it indeed was the back of the Meng Chao.

Meng Chao’s Fans couldn't refute as well, because they themselves could also see that the man in the photo was in fact Meng Chao.

Jin Feiyun's fans went to Jin Feiyun's Weibo, Meng Chao's Weibo or the official Weibo accounts of Jin Feiyun and Meng Chao's studios to check, wanting to verify if Jin Feiyun was really with Meng Chao.

Since Jin Feiyun's studio was the leader of this hype. Naturally, it was impossible to stand up and clarify the truth. So they simply played dumb, deaf and blind, unable to see, hear, or speak.

However, Meng Chao's studio immediately posted a Weibo, as if they were referring to the matter. 

Meng Chao Studio v: Posting photos [pictures]

Yes, this Weibo post was not accompanied by any words of refuting, only a picture, full of irony.

The posted picture was a simple drawing of a snake and an elephant. The snake opened its mouth wide and seemed to want to swallow the elephant.

Fans of Meng Chao commented under this Weibo post one after another——

[Heartless snake waiting to swallow the elephant, undoubtedly this was a chicken essence speculation. 】

[Some people's appetite is simply too ugly. For so many years, my family's best actor kept himself clean in the circle, and there has been no scandal. This time, he was actually stuck with chicken essence. 】

[Disgusting, disgusting. 】

With the release of this Weibo from Meng Chao Studio, although it was not a clarification, it was more of a mock as if the matter was not worth clarifying. And those passers-by who were lining up eating melons stood in line for fun.

What a joke, Meng Chao's popularity and national position were not something that Jin Feiyun could fight against. For a time, the whole Weibo was laughing at Jin Feiyun's hype on Meng Chao.

Seeing this massive ridicule on the Internet, some at Jin Feiyun's studio couldn't understand it. Isn't it normal for the woman in the relationship to suffer fan girls from the actor when there was such a suspected announcement of a relationship? Why is the woman being ridiculed by everyone at this time?

Lin Qin and Meng Chao, whose mobile phones were confiscated, naturally did not know what happened online.

The noodles Lin Qin cooked were unanimously praised, not because it was a reality show, but because Lin Qin's cooking skills were so good that everyone ate all the bowls of noodles without a single leftover.

On the director's side, the news on the outside world was naturally well-informed, and they soon got to know about the news on the Internet.

The chief director gave Jin Feiyun a complicated look. Unexpectedly, after they refused to jointly hype, Jin Feiyun and her team still went and did it in their own way.

After considering for a while the director-in-chief called Meng Chao out and told him what had happened on the Internet in a succinct manner.

Meng Chao didn't show any emotions at that time, but asked the chief director for his mobile phone temporarily.

Guessing Meng Chao wanted to clarify the scandal himself, the chief director asked the staff to return the mobile phone to Meng Chao.

When Meng Chao returned to the living room, Lin Qin looked at him eyes full of questions. He felt the director's expression seemed a little solemn when he asked Meng Chao before. Did something happen?

Meng Chao shook his head towards Lin Qin, and gave Jin Feiyun a casual glance. There was obviously no change in expressions and emotions on his face, but Jin Feiyun suddenly felt a sense of cold sweat on her back, feeling extremely guilty.

Going straight to Zhang Yue, Meng Chao handed him his cell phone, "Can you take a picture for me?" As Zhang Yue was still immersed in Lin Qin's biography, he had not browsed Weibo as well, although he was a little unclear about what this was all about, he took the phone and got up.

"Lin Qin, let's take a photo." After walking to the background wall Lin Qin had painted in the morning, Meng Chao stood still, calling over Lin Qin to his side. 

Lin Qin walked over and stood beside Meng Chao very cooperatively, but he didn't expect Meng Chao to put his hand near his shoulder without touching it in the next second. Lin Qin shrank as he was nervous, and Zhang Yue took the photo in the meantime. 

"Teacher Meng, can you see if this is ok?" Zhang Yue asked, walking over and handing the phone back to Meng Chao.

At first glance, Meng Chao was satisfied.

He had to say that Zhang Yue captured the moment very well. When Lin Qin shrank nervously, he happened to be shrinking toward Meng Chao, which made it look as if Meng Chao was holding Lin Qin in his arms.

Without delay, Meng Chao used this photo to post on Weibo.

Meng Chao v: The manuscript was drawn by my child, I painted the colours. Rounding up, it becomes my drawing.
