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

Chapter 27: Chapter 27: The Final Recording Session Chapter 27: Chapter 27: The Final Recording Session But this was explosive enough, Mo Mo had been in the industry for so many years, but she had never heard of having a special feeling for any other male celebrity.

Han Yan said with jealousy, “Being handsome is always an advantage, even if it’s a deadbeat, the Heavenly Queen still likes him.”

Zhang Li laughed a bit, setting aside her identity as one of Wu Mu’s anti-fans, she actually thought Wu Mu and Mo Mo were quite a match.

It really did feel like a match between a golden boy and a jade girl.

But it was just a thought, the possibility was slim.

Zhang Li felt that even if Mo Mu really did have feelings for Wu Mu, she would probably restrain herself from developing it further.

It was still the issue of Wu Mu’s scandal that had too big of an impact.

Even if it was true that Wu Mu was deceived, falling in love with a married woman and loving her so humbly, so cringingly, it was a stigma that couldn’t be washed away.

Who would be happy knowing their boyfriend had such a memorable ex that he could say, “If you don’t want me, I’ll just die”?

Just thinking about it was annoying.

The higher the standards for a relationship, the deeper the love, the more one would mind this issue.

If they really got together, any small conflict could trigger thoughts like, “You were so humble to your ex, and you treat me like this?”, causing an immediate mental breakdown.

Even setting Mo Mo aside, even the current anti-fans felt the same way.

With Wu Mu like this, if they continued to be fans, wouldn’t they be demeaning themselves?

Telling others, “My idol, the other half of my dreams, is just a plaything manipulated by a rich married woman”?

Zhang Li shook her head and continued watching the program.

They had reached the singing segment.

“Hey, Xu Zhiwen’s song is not bad, but why has he become so timid lately? He was so fierce before the competition; I was waiting for him to keep stepping on Wu’s face on the show, but he went silent.”

“Zhao Dongcheng’s song is not good; I didn’t feel anything after listening.”

“He Jie’s duo performance is good; He Jie’s strength is still strong, he’s probably the best below the Heavenly King.”

As Han Yan watched, she kept critiquing, and soon it was the fifth group, Mo Mo’s and Wu Mu’s turn.

Mo Mo was the first to perform.

Han Yan noticed a small movement before Mo Mo made her entrance.

“See? She definitely has feelings for Wu, even glancing at Wu before getting on stage,” she said, pouting at the TV.

Zhang Li nodded but didn’t say anything, just quietly enjoyed Mo Mo’s performance.

The song ended.

Even this anti-fan, Han Yan, had to nod, “He’s quite good at writing songs, the melody is pleasant, and the lyrics are fitting.”

“Didn’t expect him to write a Cantonese song, never saw him do that before.”

Zhang Li said, “Mo Mo sings really well too, her strength is definitely a notch above the others.”

“She’s taken first place three times in a row, right? With her strength, the championship spot definitely includes her,” Han Yan remarked.

That was something most people recognized.

After Mo Mo, it was Wu Mu’s turn.

“Here it comes!”

Both of them sat up a bit straighter.

Though both were Wu Mu’s “anti-fans”, they had to admit, Wu Mu was currently the biggest highlight of the show.

Not only was he sensational on stage, but the program effects were also maxed out; his segments were visibly more interesting than the others.

Watching Wu Mu get up but not go on stage, attempting to continue finding scenes, but being met with indifferent faces from the audience below, Han Yan laughed.

“This Wu dog still wants to create scenes for himself? Who would bother with him?”

“Hey, how did Wu dog end up like this? He used to be a pretty serious guy,” she asked Zhang Li, puzzled.

Zhang Li shook her head, she also hadn’t figured this out, it was too different from his previous personality.

Although online people thought it was Wu Mu’s scandal that made him stop pretending and just give up, she felt the difference was still too big.

Even if there was some pretense in his previous persona, if his real personality were like this, with so many programs and random videos, something should have leaked out by now.

It wouldn’t be like now, as if he had turned into a completely different person overnight.

On TV, Wu Mu couldn’t find a scene, so he had to go on stage, but even then, he forcefully added a segment, praising his own strength.

Han Yan grimaced, “Whether his strength is strong or not, others might not know, but us fans know, right? Pfft, he really has no shame!”

“Let’s see how he embarrasses himself later!”

She said this, but deep down, Han Yan wasn’t really confident that Wu Mu would embarrass himself, especially remembering the chaotic scene Wu Mu caused last episode.

Though emotionally, she didn’t believe a trending singer like Wu Mu could perform like last time.

But what if he did.

And then… he really did.

“People like me.”

“Should have had a brilliant life.”

“How come after more than twenty years…”

“I am still adrift in a sea of faces.”

Both Han Yan and Zhang Li watched the TV, but their thoughts had already drifted to their own lives over the past twenty-plus years.

When the song finished, they, along with the audience below the stage, fell silent, not speaking.

After a while, Han Yan sighed, “If only Wu didn’t have that scandal.”

Zhang Li silently nodded, if Wu Mu hadn’t had that scandal, with his current performance and former image, truly, even calling him a celestial idol would be an understatement.

…

After the third episode aired, it sparked a lot of discussions, even Wu Mu’s anti-fans had to admit, “People Like Me” was written too well.

This song really reached into people’s hearts.

Even without considering Wu Mu’s performance effect, the lyrics alone were too resonant.

While the outside world was buzzing about Wu Mu’s performance in the third episode, the filming of the fourth episode had begun.

Wu Mu’s overall mentality was still pretty good.

Though he was blacklisted, it might not always be easy to earn points on such a good stage.

But no worries, he would always find a way out, being a cheat as he was.

Sitting in the contestants’ seats, he was sizing up the audience entering the stage below while sucking on a bottle of yogurt, utterly leisurely.

Mo Mo chatted with him on the side, “Teacher Wu Mu, your online ratings are starting to improve! Many passersby now have a good impression of you. Yesterday, I even saw a hot post on Donghu, analyzing whether you are a real strength singer or not.”

Donghu, this otherworldly version of Zhihu, had not yet opened up for registration. Although its fame was less than Earth’s Zhihu, its professionalism had always been maintained, so many industry insiders enjoyed using Donghu.

Clearly, Mo Mo was one of them.

Wu Mu tilted his head to look over, “What was their conclusion?”

“Haha, they said you are ‘half-step strength singer realm,’ your techniques are still poor, but your emotion is sufficient,” Mo Mo said jubilantly, as she took out her phone, opened Donghu, and wanted to show him.

But as she opened her browsing history, the sharp-eyed Wu Mu noticed something else.
