Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star
chapter-138

Apologies for the VERY LATE release. I was playing the violin and Puppxteer was doing something else, but hey, at least we translated this chapter without dying. ;D

“Hanfu Goddess Liu Man”’s Tik Tok account now had 180k fans, which was about the same number of fans Princess Man’s Wei Bo account had.

Liu Man had only posted four videos on Tik Tok. Excluding the first one, the rest were all behind-the-scenes videos of “Shi-Senpai.” All of her fans went to her first video and commented, wishing her good luck on her performance. The atmosphere online, until now, was very hype.

When Monday came, every student was ready. They all confidently waited for the concert on Thursday and Friday.

They drew sticks on Tuesday.

Li Xiaoru got a spot on Thursday afternoon.

Then, students whom all got Thursday afternoon would draw sticks again. Li Xiaoru got performance number 2, which means they would be the second performance on Thursday afternoon.

Liu Man immediately sent the performance time to Wen Fangfei, and Wen Fangfei replied: “Roger that.”

She then forwarded this message to Yu Zhan, Peach is a fairy, Jiang Chengfeng, Sun Weiwei, He Qisi, and everyone else who said they were going to come to watch her performance.

At this time, Liu Man and Li Xiaoru heard Wang Nina saying happily to the other students that they were super lucky and got a spot on Friday afternoon, which meant their performance would be the grand finale.

At this time, “The Sound of the Wind”’s filming stage was coming to an end. In fact, according to their original schedule, Ye Zian was planning on finishing filming all scenes by the end of April and start editing the clips by May. However, because Feng Qingyu’s piano scenes were delaying the process by a lot, they still weren’t finished in May. Feng Qingyu and Qiao Xin had just finished their parts outside of the country, and they just came back from America.

During this period, Tang Tu and Yang Huayue stayed in Shanghai and filmed their respective parts. Now that the male and female leads were all here, they could start filming the end.

Although Tang Tu was still in far-away Shanghai, he continuously paid attention to his school. To be more accurate, he was paying attention to Liu Man. He knew all Sophomores in western instrument majors had to participate in an ensemble concert.

On this day, after they drew sticks, Tang Tu messaged Liu Man on WeChat, “Is the time settled down? When are you performing?”

Liu Man was surprised when she received the WeChat message from Tang Tu. Because he was filming, he never showed up at school this semester.

“Thursday.” Liu Man’s reply was very perfunctory.

Tang Tu: “What’s the specific time?”

Liu Man: “Why do you need to know?”

Tang Tu: “I’m planning on coming back to school to watch your performance.”

Seeing this message, Liu Man frowned and directly replied, “No, thanks. Whatever you do, do not come.”

These icy words were full of her thought of not even wanting to see him.

Tang Tu’s heart froze.

After Liu Man left the cast, he thought about her every day. He couldn’t help but think of Liu Man’s smile, especially at the end of the day when he finished shooting the scenes and felt exhausted. He felt like if she was still in the cast with him, he would never feel this tired.

He even started hating his job as an actor. He detested himself for deciding to become the second male lead of this movie. Being in this cast long-termed meant he had to obey the director and the crew, so he could not go anywhere except to stay in Shanghai.

Oh, how much he hoped he was just a student. He wanted to meander on the campus with her, not having to worry about anything.

After pondering for a long time, he conjured up all his courage and wrote: “Aren’t you going to give me just one chance?”

It could not be more obvious what he meant.

Liu Man felt her heart skip a beat, but she did not reply.

After two minutes, he sent another message:

“I like you.”

Liu Man suddenly felt that the phone in her hands was like a hot yam. She wanted to throw away the phone and pretend she didn’t see Tang Tu’s message.

But she knew lying to herself would not mean anything, and she forced herself to face reality.

“You already have a girlfriend, so how can you like someone else? You should pay all your attention to your girlfriend and not focus on someone else all day.”

Liu Man didn’t want to make her words too awful and left Tang Tu his face.

Tang Tu, however, naively thought Liu Man didn’t accept him because he already had a girlfriend. He couldn’t wait and told Liu Man, “I’ve already broken up with Shen Mozhen at the start of February, and I’m single. Can you give me a chance?”

He broke up with Shen Mozhen!

He confessed that he wanted to pursue her love!

Liu Man was shocked.

Her “hot” phone finally, as she wished, fell onto the ground, and the screen went black.

Tang Tu waited for a long while but still didn’t receive a reply from Liu Man. At this time, the manager urged him for the next scene.

Before he left, he conveniently left his phone on the table to charge in the break room.

Qiao Xin, who had just finished his scene, walked into the break room right after Tang Tu left. He took out his phone and was going to play with it when, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the charging phone.

He remembered the style and brand of this phone. It was Tang Tu’s phone.

The devil in his heart drove him to disregard his morals and pick up the phone on the table. Tang Tu walked too anxiously, his mind full of his first confession in his life. He was also nervous about when Liu Man would reply to his confession, and he was too disturbed to lock his screen. The screen showed Tang Tu’s phone desktop, a fresh, still picture of a violin.

Although Tang Tu got out of WeChat, Qiao Xin could still click back in.

He saw the newest chat at his first glance.

Contact: Liu Man.

Last sentence: I’ve already broken up with Shen Mozhen at the start of February…

Ayo, this information is crucial!

Qiao Xin firmly clicked in and was engrossed as he read through the entire chat history between Tang Tu and Liu Man, and that was not enough for him. He even took a photo of all these messages with his phone.

Originally, he clicked onto Tang Tu’s WeChat only because he wanted to pry on Tang Tu’s privacy. Qiao Xin did not expect to see such incredible information.

Tang Tu, you’re screwed this time!

Qiao Xin malevolently cursed him in his mind.

Qiao Xin found a person in his WeChat contacts, nicknamed Zhang Daqiang. He sent a message to Zhang Daqiang.

“I have crucial information here. Do you want them?”

“Whose information?”

“Tang Tu and Hanfu Goddess’.”

Qiao Xin was smart. He knew Zhang Daqiang would not be interested in such an unknown name as “Liu Man”. He had to mention her cyber star nickname.

As expected, Zhang Daqiang immediately asked him, “Are your information photos? Words?”

“Photos of their WeChat history records.”

“Deal.”

Zhang Daqiang was not just any gossip journalist. He was nicknamed “Mainland’s number one news breaker.”

His verified Wei Bo account had exposed many celebrities. Different from those paparazzi who liked to post rumors, Zhang Daqing had always been famous for having real proof. Everything he sent was true, and he could expose all the deep, dirty secrets of those celebrities.

Though he rarely posts, there was always huge drama when he does post. He always managed to get on headlines, and in return, celebrity fandoms hated him.

Because every celebrity he posted about either got canceled, stored away, or even quit the entertainment circle. Either way, none of them had a happy ending.
