Chapter 204

Originally, it was just fellow netizens amusing themselves. Fans of different celebrities dared not use the personas of their idols' fans to gossip, fearing they might accidentally provoke their idols.

This prompted netizens to start shouting:

["Fans who usually promote their idol's acting skills, aren't there any brave enough to speak up?"]

["The whole court is stammering and none dare admit it, right? Alright, I'll admit it on behalf of my idol's rival - it must be Hl who got the role. Recently, her fans' location when picking her up and the blogger's location were in the same city."]

["You're talking nonsense! Our female star was here on business, not acting. Her manager said she's temporarily not allowed to act to avoid damaging her reputation with the public."]

Bystander: ...Uh oh.

To avoid provoking their idols, fans really will say anything, huh?

But come to think of it, this isn't ordinary promotion. With such high heat, normally they would just admit it. At most, people would say the fans are gilding their idol.

But this is Tan Ruo we're talking about, a movie star whose number of female fans is comparable to Ji Mochen, the former top streaming star.

Not to mention, even among current popular idols' fans, there are many who used to be little fans of Tan Ruo, especially Ji Ruochu—

Huh?!

Ji Ruochu?

Oh right, could it be Ji Ruochu?

Think about it - elite young lady, exceptional acting skills, genius, national all-round woman - she fits perfectly!

Plus, in this world, other than Ji Ruochu, who else could smoothly take on Tan Ruo's role in 'Seeking Enjoyment'?

Lastly, most of Ji Ruochu's older fans became fans after seeing her eyes, similar to Tan Ruo's, in 'Dad Take Over'.

Only in this way, if she did take on 'Seeking Enjoyment', while others might not know, her own fans would likely start an internal battle to the death.

Connecting all the dots, all the gossip fans became excited and started flooding Ji Ruochu and her family's comments. ["Sis, secretly tell your older sister, did you really take on 'Seeking Enjoyment'?"] ["It couldn't really be you, could it? Don't do it, why take on such a controversial role when there are so many other dramas? Be good."]

["We're just saying, we know your acting skills are great, but 'Seeking Enjoyment' really isn't suitable for you. You're only in your early 20s, how could you portray it well? Be a good girl, maybe try it again in a few years?"]

...

Netizens frantically sent messages, but Ji Ruochu's fans remained motionless.

Neither the new fans who joined later nor the old fans reacted to this topic at all.

Everyone went about their usual business, browsing fan forums, boosting Ji Ruochu's data, as if they hadn't heard this news at all.

Only the fans themselves knew that the atmosphere in their group had become somewhat heavy, as if a storm was brewing.

Fortunately, this speculation didn't last too long. Without cooperation from all sides, the heat soon dissipated after being overshadowed by 'Living Alone'.

While netizens "haha"ed at Ji Ruochu's abs and mocked Fan Jin and others' frantic efforts, the Strawberry TV station's variety show prowess was undeniable. No matter the post-production or operations, they always managed to double a show's effect.

Gradually, the internet, which suffers from amnesia, no longer showed any news about Ji Ruochu and the movie 'Seeking Enjoyment'.
