Chapter 573: Relationship Progress, the Fall of a Top-Tier Celebrity (1)
Translator: _Min_
Years ago, the entertainment industry didn’t have the concept of “top-tier celebrities” as it does today. The closest thing might have been titles like the “Best Four Actresses.”
It was only after the emergence of fan culture that terms like “popularity” began to circulate.
A “top-tier celebrity” signified a star of immense fame, or in simpler terms, a walking, talking trending topic.
However, not all top-tier celebrities were created equal.
The true and unparalleled top-tier was undoubtedly Yun Lan. Even using the term “top-tier” in relation to her seems like an insult.
No one else remained as beloved by countless fans during a five-year hiatus from the screen as Yun Lan.
Xu Jianian’s rise to fame relied on the support of girlfriend and wife fans.
The same was for other top-tier male and female celebrities, where looks were the primary factor.
Su Yang, however, was different.
While Su Yang was indeed handsome, his talent was such that people overlook his looks and physique.
As for Xu Jianian and other top-tier actors in the film industry, their acting skills were decent at best.
While love affairs were private matters, when one’s career was built on fan support, the feelings of those fans must be considered.
These photos, if leaked, could demolish Xu Jianian’s status as a top-tier celebrity.
“Boss, did you catch who that woman was?” a junior paparazzo asked, “She was wearing a mask and had her back to us; we couldn’t tell who she was.”
“They’re definitely going to eat,” the lead speculated, squinting. “Even if they’re in a private room, there will be moments without masks, and we’ll get our shot. ”
“I’m dying of laughter here. Seeing how intimate they were, they’ve been dating for at least half a year. Xu Jianian has kept this well hidden,” the junior paparazzo remarked. “This relationship, once exposed, will bring him down since his fans are mostly girlfriend fans.”
Sang Yanqing couldn’t pull her up.
Yuejian was very alert, “Is there alcohol in your cup?”
Sang Yanqing paused, “It might be fruit wine. Is Qingqing allergic to alcohol? She never told me, I have to remember this.”
“We’re in trouble,” Yuejian held his forehead. “We better inform the teahouse owner in advance. Once she’s done squatting, this place is going to get torn apart.”
If it were just an alcohol allergy, that would be one thing.
But when Si Fuqing drinks, those around her suffer.
She had experienced it firsthand.
After drinking, even the combined efforts of her elder and second senior brothers couldn’t hold back their little junior sister.
In the end, their master had to intervene and knock the little junior sister unconscious.
Sang Yanqing:
Before she could grasp the meaning of Yuejian’s words, Yu Xiheng approached Si Fuqing in his wheelchair.
He reached out to her, his voice cool and gentle, “Still a radish?”
“No, not a radish today,” Si Fuqing hugged her legs, curling into a small ball, seriously correcting him, “Today, I’m a cabbage.”
“Oh?” Yu Xiheng smiled slightly, “Won’t the cabbage go home?”
Si Fuqing hesitated, hugging herself tighter, “Then it would get eaten.”
The air suddenly grew quiet.
Yuejian raised an eyebrow.
Her little junior sister didn’t immediately resort to violence?
