Then, Shang Lu saw the two of them standing on either side of an innocent passerby and asked, “How many times have you tried? I see you’ve been trying for quite a while and still haven’t caught anything.”
“How many more times do you want to try? If you can’t catch it, can you let me have a go next?”
“Give it to me!”
“I was here first! Give it to me!!”
Seeing that the two of them were about to start arguing, the passerby caught in the middle felt awkward, and their hand trembled slightly as they tried to catch a doll. Surprisingly, this time the claw successfully grabbed a doll, and the passerby quickly ran off with it.
Shang Lu : “…”
Have these two really never been beaten up before?
But thanks to the relentless efforts of Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan, they each managed to catch two dolls, so they didn’t go home empty-handed.
Shang Lu took out her phone and calmly filmed the whole process. She also filmed some scenes of them going to have dessert together, and she quickly edited a simple vlog using her phone and posted it on Weibo.
@Shang_Lu(V) : [Today I met The Brainless and The Unhappy1~ (video attachment)]
[The trio is out to play again, have fun!]
[Shang Lu gives them the titles : the Brainless and the Unhappy, hahaha]
[So who’s the Brainless and who’s the Unhappy?]
Seeing this comment, Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu exchanged glances : “?!?”
@First_In_Beauty_Lin_Yanyan(V) : [I’m the Unhappy!]
@Ye_Lu(V) : [I am the Unhappy!!!]
Shang Lu : “…?”
Netizens laughed.
[Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan are competing to be the Unhappy because neither of them wants to be the Brainless, hahaha]
[I think Shang Lu got it wrong, what’s with these titles? They are clearly the same! Both of them are the Brainless!]
Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu both looked at Shang Lu and asked in unison, “Lulu, tell me! Who is the Brainless?”
Shang Lu quietly took a bite of her cake and blamed an innocent person, “I said it was Ou Yi, he’s the Brainless.”
In this way, she successfully brushed off both Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan at the same time.
Then, Lin Yanyan asked again, “By the way, Lulu, I saw that you’re also officially announced for the charity gala tomorrow night. You should come to find me then.”
“Okay,” Shang Lu readily agreed.
Lin Yanyan was referring to a charity gala in collaboration with a fashion brand, where Shang Lu and two other brand ambassadors from SC would represent the brand together.
Coincidentally, apart from Shang Lu, the other two brand ambassadors were the international supermodel Gong Yue, and Xu Ze.
The next day, at the charity gala venue.
Shang Lu first met Xu Ze, waving the newly acquired support stick she had just received from her fans and asking, “Do you think it looks pretty?”
“It’s beautiful,” Xu Ze naturally replied, then brought out the support stick from behind him, holding one from Shang Lu’s fan club as well.
Shang Lu widened her eyes and said, “How come you have one too? Have you also joined my fan club?”
Before Xu Ze could answer, another person walked in from behind.
Yan Zijiao was dressed in a suit, also holding a support stick from Shang Lu’s fan club.
Shang Lu was somewhat choked up.
What was going on? Were her support sticks that cheap?
Xu Ze said directly, “He stole them, took two.”
Yan Zijiao immediately corrected, “Don’t talk nonsense, I didn’t steal them. I just politely asked your fans for them; they were very enthusiastic.”
Shang Lu didn’t expect to see Yan Zijiao here, but then she remembered that it had been mentioned on a previous TV show that he came from a well-off family. However, she still didn’t quite understand and asked, “So why did you ask my fans for my support merchandise?”
“Of course, because I’m also your fan,” Yan Zijiao said, taking out his phone and opening it to show Shang Lu. The open page displayed Shang Lu’s fan group.
Shang Lu : “…?”
Yan Zijiao glanced at Xu Ze, who was standing by awkwardly, hesitated for a moment, but then said directly, “The things you advised on the last time were so useful. She even contacted me on her own outside of the show!”
“Really?” Shang Lu also became excited, after all, this was like her CP privately giving her inside information and showing affection.
“Absolutely!” Yan Zijiao couldn’t hide his pride for even a second, but when facing Shang Lu, he still put on the demeanor of a humble learner. “Could you please tell me again how I performed last time? Is there anything I could have done better?”
Shang Lu seemed a bit helpless. “I’m sorry, I’ve been quite busy lately and haven’t had a chance to watch the last episode.”
Yan Zijiao’s eyes revealed a hint of disappointment, then he said, “How about we exchange WeChat contact information? So that if there’s anything, I can still seek your guidance.”
At this moment, Yan Zijiao’s tone became very humble, appearing completely different from before.
Naturally, Shang Lu agreed.
Yan Zijiao looked even happier after successfully getting her WeChat contact. It seemed like with Shang Lu as his strategist, he was one step closer to rekindling his relationship with his girlfriend!
However, Yan Zijiao didn’t stay here for too long; he was reminded by the staff to proceed to the red carpet.
In the lounge, they could watch the live broadcast of the red carpet, complete with bullet comments, to allow artists’ teams to see real-time feedback from fans on their outfits.
Soon, it was Yan Zijiao’s turn to walk the red carpet.
Shang Lu wanted to rub her eyes, but she was worried about smudging her eye makeup. So, she turned to Xu Ze and asked, “Am I seeing things, or did he bring my light stick onto the red carpet?”
After receiving Xu Ze’s confirmation, Shang Lu fell into silence.
Netizens also noticed this.
[Is this Yan Zijiao who’s head over heels in love? He really is a second-generation rich kid.]
[He was here last year too, but no one paid attention to him back then.]
[What is he holding in his hand? The pink color doesn’t match his suit at all. The stylist should be fired.]
[That’s a support stick, but it looks familiar. Where have I seen it before?]
[Whoa! That’s Shang Lu’s fan support light stick!!! The camera showed Shang Lu’s fans before the red carpet!]
[Huh? Yan Zijiao is also a fan of Shang Lu?]
Netizens were perplexed.
The host also noticed, and the director had sent cues through the earpiece, instructing the host to bring up this topic.
So, the host directly asked, “Mr. Yan, you’re also an old friend of ours, and it seems that today’s pink light stick is from Teacher Shang Lu’s fan club. Does it hold any special significance?”
Yan Zijiao hadn’t paid attention at first but didn’t mind addressing it now. He smiled lightly and said, “Teacher Shang Lu is my benefactor.”
Shang Lu: “…?”
Netizens: “???”
[Yan Zijiao, do you even know what you’re saying?]
[What on earth is this? I thought my ears were broken. How could Yan Zijiao say such strange lines?]
[I’m different; I thought I went blind. I even thought it was Ou Yi walking the red carpet right now.]
[I bet Ou Yi will freak out when he sees this scene, haha.]
[So, what exactly happened? Yan Zijiao only appeared on that one episode of Xiao Taoyan. How did he get so influenced?]
[Haha, the people who haven’t watched the previous episode of Xiao Taoyan should catch up; it’s really hilarious.]
But unfortunately, Yan Zijiao had criticized superstition on another show before, and some unscrupulous netizens decided to splice these two scenes together.
One moment.
Everyone was making wishes at the temple, and Yan Zijiao had a blank expression: “It’s better to seek yourself than to seek gods.”
The next moment.
Yan Zijiao was holding a pink light stick on the red carpet : “Teacher Shang Lu is my benefactor.”
It could be described as a humorous self-contradiction.
Some netizens commented humorously:
[Seeking yourself is not as good as seeking Teacher Shang Lu.]
[Haha, I’ve achieved enlightenment, Master!]
