Where there are people, there is trouble.
Before Xia Wei Liang could even complete the ritual to become sworn siblings with the kingpin of the poultry world, candid photos of her and Xi En were already going viral.
In the photos, Xi En was patting the top of her head, his eyes so tender they seemed about to drip water.
If the photos taken in the botanical garden could be considered outdoor teaching, what about those taken on the set?
They had no romantic scenes whatsoever. It had always been the fourth female lead, Guan Sheng Qiu, who was infatuated. So what was the male lead doing looking at her with such tender eyes?
As expected, the photos were guaranteed to be the top trending topic.
Unlike other celebrities caught in candid shots where their fans would distance themselves, both "Xi Mi Lu" (Xi En's fans) and "Liang Fen" (Xia Wei Liang's fans) adopted a passive stance.
Liang Fen's passivity was understandable. While others were unaware, they knew very well that their "Niang Niang" had a main love interest! Anyone who appeared after him was merely a "passerby" in her life, not worth fighting over.
But Xi Mi Lu's reaction was quite intriguing. If it weren't for Xi En's status, this would have been a clear case of riding the coattails of fame.
The Emperor of Vision had both a good reputation and a body of work. He was also humble and low-key in his daily life. His fans should have been the first to come out and clear his name when such rumors surfaced!
The outside world didn't know the reason behind this, but the fandoms were well aware!
Important matters are said thrice: there's no hidden story behind the Emperor of Vision and Niang Niang. Xi Mi Lu's inaction meant they genuinely didn't want to confront Liang Fen!
In the fandoms, besides Liang Fen, even Yi Mi (another fan base) wasn't something Xi Mi Lu feared! For years, the Emperor of Vision and the Film Emperor had been constantly compared, more frequently than menstrual pads. The two fan bases had long developed experience in their feuds!

But Liang Fen was different!
When there was a problem, they could truly engage in a long discussion!
If you curse, they'll curse along with you!
You want to run? Well, too bad! You want to run after cursing? They'd seal all your doors and windows!
They would chase you all the way to your great-grand aunt's house to drag you back!
Bring your small stool, sit here, let's continue our chat~
Xi Mi Lu was distraught. "Can you have some dignity? Can't you find something meaningful to do? Don't you get tired of staring at us all day?"
Answer: No, they weren't tired.
Fans of other celebrities had already cut their watermelons and were ready to watch online. The long-awaited Liang Fen was about to emerge again. How exciting!
Compared to the incident with the feline stars, this wasn't on the same level of strength; the audience hadn't had their fill yet!
This time, it was perfect. Wait for Liang Fen to completely dominate Xi Mi Lu!
It was a pity, though. Xi Mi Lu had learned their lesson this time. "Whatever your attitude is, our attitude will be the same. Let other fans laugh at us? Impossible!"
With no fan involvement, the matter became much easier to handle. With no one fueling the heat, it was just a lonely candid shot.
Unexpectedly, the most vocal support was not for either of the involved parties, but for the highly anticipated Yi Shen!
Fans from all walks of life mobilized, forming a unified front to call out Xiao Yi.
[Yi Shen, your Niang Niang is suspected of cheating. We suggest amputation. – Regards from Feather.]
[Yi Shen, it has been determined that Xi En's intentions are impure! We urge you to take action quickly! – Suggestions from M77 Rice Fans.]
[Where did these little fans come from? Why aren't you watching the sweet romance drama starring your idol and causing trouble here? Have you finished your homework? We Liang Fen haven't even spoken yet, and you've already stolen the spotlight?]
The comments below immediately dispersed. At the same time, they spread the word: "Run! Liang Fen is out patrolling! If you don't want to chat, run quickly!"
Following that, Liang Fen appeared in droves under Xiao Yi's Weibo account.
[We just want to know what you think of this matter?]
[Why not just announce it officially? At worst, I'll kneel on a washboard for a night when I get home.]
[A true man should be open-minded. Women, having three husbands and four concubines is quite normal.]
