This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends

Chapter 26: Chapter 26 They Have a Problem (Please Follow!) Chapter 26: Chapter 26 They Have a Problem (Please Follow!) “And the TV stations, when they stumble upon a hot topic like Wu Mu getting eliminated, will definitely go all out to hype it up,” she said. “Even if they don’t respond directly to the spoiler, they’ll certainly release all sorts of insider information.”

Han Yan, being a seasoned fan, was very familiar with the TV show teams’ tactics.

There was no suspense about whether Wu Mu would be eliminated or not.

What she cared more about was:
“Zhang Li, give me a straight answer, do you want Wu to get eliminated or not? This Anti-fan leader is now challenging your status as an Anti-fan!”

Zhang Li replied quickly, “Of course I hope he gets eliminated, I’m his Anti-fan too!”

Han Yan sneered, “You better be.”

She was now very suspicious of her best friend’s loyalty. Ever since the last show, she had noticed that Zhang Li was mentioning Wu Mu more and more.

Zhang Li was not the type to keep talking about someone she disliked.

Normally, if she disliked someone, she wouldn’t pay them any attention at all.

The way she’s bringing him up all the time now, how can it not seem like true love?

Women, bought over by just one smile!

Han Yan thought to herself.

At eight o’clock in the evening, the program started on time.

After the host’s explanation of the competition, the first one to appear was again, Wu Mu.

Watching Wu Mu approach with his lazy attitude from afar, Han Yan was a bit dazzled.

This damn jerk is so handsome!

Even handsomer than before!

Unlike Zhang Li, who became a fan because of Wu Mu’s sunny disposition and positive attitude, Han Yan’s initial reason for fangirling over Wu Mu was quite simple: it was because Wu Mu was handsome, with high aesthetic appeal.

The first time she saw Wu Mu, she felt like he was as handsome as a male protagonist straight out of a manga, irresistibly heart-throbbing.

She had thought that Wu Mu had already reached the ceiling of handsomeness before, but who knew that after some time without seeing him, he could get even more handsome?

To put it bluntly, Wu Mu now looked like the kind of beautiful youth you’d see in an oil painting, flawless from any angle.

Dazzlingly so.

Han Yan watched for a while and felt her heartbeat quicken.

But the more captivating he was, the more she felt a teeth-gnashing hatred.

“Dammit, being so handsome, why do you have to be a lickspittle? Just love women that much, huh?” she muttered under her breath.

Those who admire appearances are always the hardest hit among spouse fans.

If you like a celebrity’s looks, you naturally fantasize about that star being your boyfriend or husband.

Even knowing it’s not possible in reality, it’s still nice to dream.

But then Wu Mu’s scandal hit and shattered their dreams.

Now, whenever Han Yan thought of Wu Mu, she couldn’t help thinking about his sugar mommy behind him, and immediately her mood would plummet.

“Hey, what are people online saying about Wu Mu’s improved looks?” Han Yan asked Zhang Li.

Since the trailer was released, the topic of Wu Mu being handsomer than before had always been a modest hot topic.

Lots of people were curious about this.

If it were one person feeling this way, it could be a misperception, but now that everyone feels this way, it’s obvious something must be up.

Zhang Li, being well-informed, said, “Somebody on Bilibili compared his photos and videos from debut until now, and found that he’s always looked the same. The sense that he’s gotten more handsome is simply due to camera angles and lighting, as well as makeup reasons.”

Han Yan understood the effects of camera and lighting, but what the hell was this makeup thing?

Pointing at the TV screen, she asked, “Isn’t he completely unmade up there, bare-faced?”

As a girl, she could tell whether someone was wearing makeup or not, and it was clear that since the start of the show, Wu Mu had been bare-faced.

Zhang Li spread her hands, “Right, the video said that previous makeup actually detracted from Wu Mu’s looks, and he’s actually handsomer without it.”

“What a bizarre conclusion,” Han Yan commented.

The TV program continued, revisiting the scene where Wu Mu talked about borrowing money from Mo Mo, which had been seen in the trailer and both had had muted reactions.

But what followed was unbearable.

Because she had all her songs taken care of by Wu Mu, Mo Mo also had spare time. Her on-screen time this episode was just like Wu Mu’s last episode, while everyone else was struggling to write new songs, she was enjoying leisure time as if she was on a vacation reality show, eating and drinking every day.

Tolerable as the eating and drinking part was, the key was that a lot of it was with Wu Mu.

And then something people noticed.

“How come Mo Mo laughs so happily every time she’s with Wu Mu?” Han Yan blurted out without holding back.

In the past few episodes when they were both busy, it was not too evident, but now that they both had downtime and often gathered for chats, the difference was clear.

Mo Mo alone, or with others, always had that easy and independent edge, still smiling but obviously holding back.

But when with Wu Mu, she seemed more at ease, less guarded, and her smiles were brighter.

The production team was devious, obviously they wanted to subtly cash in on this appeal, by frequently mixing Mo Mo’s interactions with others and her demeanor with Wu Mu, making the contrast more obvious.

“Are those two involved?” questioned Han Yan.

Suddenly feeling somewhat uneasy, what’s going on!

Even if he’s an unwanted “ex-husband,” even if you, Mo Mo, are the nation’s beloved Heavenly Queen, you can’t lay a finger on what we’ve discarded!

But Zhang Li was very certain as she shook her head, “Mo Mo, I don’t know, but Wu Mu definitely has nothing going on.”

“How do you know?”

Han Yan looked at her curiously.

“Just pay attention for yourself, don’t be misled by the program’s focus on Mo Mo, just watch Wu Mu’s attitude,” Zhang Li advised.

Following her advice, Han Yan paid closer attention and indeed noticed something amiss, “Huh, doesn’t Wu Mu seem indifferent towards Mo Mo?”

While Mo Mo had a different attitude towards Wu Mu, Wu Mu’s attitude towards her hadn’t changed at all, identical to how he interacted with others.

While Han Yan was reassured, she also felt a complicated emotion, “What’s the deal, did this deadbeat get virtuous after his scandal?”

“I can’t help but gossip,” she said with a smirk, “is it Mo Mo who has unilateral feelings for Wu Mu?”

This would be mind-blowing!

A national Heavenly Queen with countless fans, who possessed both fame and a high status in the industry.

And yet she takes the initiative to have feelings for a scandal-ridden idol?

Zhang Li didn’t think so, “It should just be a bit of fondness, they’ve only known each other for a short time, how could she fall for him so quickly, and especially someone like Mo Mo.”

Han Yan agreed with this, who didn’t know that Mo Mo was a representative of good reputation, having never been involved in any scandals throughout her many years of fame.

This clearly cautious person when it comes to love, it’s unlikely she would fall for someone just over a couple of months.
