Chapter 506: Fans waging war

Yukito rolled his eyes. “Why are you laughing so much?”

Yang Tian was still cracking in laughter and said as he wiped his tears, “Why wouldn’t I? You should have seen their faces. Huang Minzhe and Wang Ling looked so terrible. You just KO’ed them in their own game. Oh, and by the way, I was right. I knew that Wang Ling’s presence was suspicious.”

Yukito slowly nodded. “It was unexpected to see her with Huang Minzhe.”

He sneered. “They purposely tried to frame you to make you apologize to them on national television. But it backfired. Just look at Weibo.”

“Hm?”

Yukito browsed through the posts, and it was as if the social media had exploded. There were too many hot topics that fans didn’t know what to talk about.

There was this mysterious special someone that Yukito mentioned. Fans were already starting to ship him with the most popular female models in China since they had similar professions.

Yukito x Hua Ning and Yukito x Wu Rushi were the most trending topics that emerged.

Hua Ning and Wu Rushi were the top female models, and rivals like how Yukito and Huang Minzhe were.

“OMG! I am sure it must be Hua Ning!”

“No, No! It’s Wu Rushi! Yukito performed the last commercial with her. It’s definitely her!”

“Yukito and Hua Ning look so perfect together. Gosh, I am drooling over the couple!”

Then there was another explosion as everybody saw Huang Minzhe’s confession and not just confession, but he even introduced his girlfriend.

Huang Minzhe’s fans immediately congratulated him and praised Wang Ling.

“Wang Ling is so pretty.”

“They look so adorable together! Hmph! Yukito and that whatever mysterious person cannot hold a candle to my idol!”

“Yes, yes! I am even sure that Yukito must be lying about this person.”

“He just wants to create the hype!”

“Definitely!”

Obviously, Yukito’s fans protected and defended him like crazy, and a war broke out. But it fueled even more when it came to light that Wang Ling was Yukito’s classmate. And even though they already met before, she feigned innocence and acted as if she met him during the interview for the first time.

So, this time Yukito’s fans waged war on Huang Minzhe.

“Gosh, that witch! She did that on purpose!”

“She wanted to frame my idol. She lied to embarrass Yukito! Even the interviewer realized it.”

“Huang Minzhe did it on purpose! He was dating Wang Ling and introduced her so that Yukito makes a fool out of himself.”

“But dating her will only make sense if Yukito had any history with Wang Ling in high school.”

“Omg, then I am so glad that they broke up! I would have hated to see my pure angel with such a vixen.”

“No, kidding.”

“It was all Huang Minzhe’s setup to tarnish our idol’s reputation.”

#HuangMinzhesucks, #ApologizetoYukito, #WangLingisWitch, all sorts of threads got viral on all social media platforms.

At the same time, everybody also praised Yukito for keeping his calm and countering all of Huang Minzhe’s sly setups to trap him.

“As expected of my idol, he is the best!”

“Yukito looked so cool. He seemed so unfazed by their tricks!”

“That’s how you show them! Go, Yukito!”

“Our Yukito is unbeatable!”

Instead of his reputation going down, the way Yukito handled the interview raised his image by miles. Even all of his answers struck the public hard emotionally. On the contrary, Huang Minzhe’s answers seemed too fake and deliberate to impress.

Yukito could almost picture the war going on as if it was a real battle with swords and armor.

Yang Tian patted his shoulder. “Good job! I am so proud of you! The public’s opinion is weighing on your side. If this continues, then maybe Huang Minzhe will have no choice but to issue an official statement to clarify things, even apologize if we played our cards right.”

Yukito shrugged. “I am not interested in his tricks or apologies. I didn’t even feel offended. I only want to focus on honing myself to become the best model and then… fulfill my dream,” he softly smiled.

Yang Tian sighed. “You are too good for this devious industry. But as your manager, I cannot let it go.”

“Sure. You do what you feel is right.”

“That’s my boy. Oh, and another thing. Please keep your distance from Wang Ling from now on. Everybody has already guessed that you might have dated her in the past. If the paparazzi catches you and clicks even one photo of you two together, then you know what kind of storm it will raise. Everybody will think that you are still into her. They won’t care about the circumstances in which you met. The tables will turn against us.”

Yukito nodded. “I understand.”

Yang Tian’s phone buzzed. “It’s from the company. I will be back in a minute.”

“Yup.”

Yukito leaned against the wall and randomly checked his phone to see the posts.

He checked the time. 6.10 PM.

The address that Jing sent is thirty-five minutes away from here. I should really get going, or Jing will start crying if I am even a second late.

He sighed but a gentle smile formed on his lips, thinking about Jing.

Today, I will talk to him and hopefully clear all our misunderstandings.

—

Two minutes ago, when Wang Ling was looking for Yukito, she saw Yang Tian leave to attend a call. She quickly hid behind a pillar and was watched Yukito just calmly leaning on the wall.

Then suddenly, she saw a warm smile form on his lips, and it took her aback.

It didn’t feel like he was particularly reading something on his phone, but more like he seemed to be thinking about something…or someone and that too, with love in his eyes.

Wang Ling stared at him with an unreadable expression on her face.

At first, she also thought, like everybody else, that Yukito might be faking about his partner.

But now, seeing the genuine smile on his lips and the warmth in his gaze…she was forced to believe the opposite.

Is that why he didn’t seem much affected after meeting me?

She thought about it for a moment, stepped out, and then walked towards Yukito.
