Chapter 15
There was a girl named He Song in the dorm room next door, she was a fan girl who was obsessed with celebrities. Whenever she came over, she would talk non-stop about how amazing her idol brother was, but she wasn't forceful about making people pay attention. She was fine.
The idol she chased was some unknown 18th tier male celebrity. None of the four roommates in the dorm had heard of him before looking him up on Baidu after He Song mentioned him.
Today when He Song came over to chat again, she talked about her brother again. "Someone actually said my brother would be caught cheating this week? I just don't understand. My brother works hard every day, he's as innocent as can be. I've met him before, he's very gentle. How could anyone say he would cheat? I'd believe it if they said it about someone else, but my brother would absolutely never cheat."
Zhou Caicai who didn't follow celebrities said: "Nothing is absolute in this world. Didn't everyone say the same thing about that one person before? The one surnamed Yan. "
He Song nodded. "Oh, him. Shame on me for being blind."
Chu Yang was just thinking about changing the prediction theme on her Weibo, but when she heard them chatting she immediately went online to search for the celebrity He Song mentioned.
Let's change it up today.
After He Song left, Chu Yang soon posted on Weibo:
This week's prediction: Celebrities Ji Xiao and Qi Jun will be caught cheating this week.
When Jin Yang and the others saw it, they looked to Chu Yang and asked: "Chu Yang, Ji Xiao is really going to be caught cheating?" Ji Xiao was the celebrity He Song had been chasing recently.
Chu Yang gave a definite yes.
Jin Yang and Zhou Caicai looked at each other, "Let's not tell He Song. She shouldn't be a blind fan anyway."
Everyone agreed.
When Yan Xu saw the online goddess didn't predict the weather today, but instead predicted cheating scandals?
Ji Xiao and Qi Jun? He didn't recognize those names, but Yan Xu still quickly liked and commented to show his support.
When Chen Shu saw it, Ji Xiao and Qi Jun? Who are they? Cheating scandal? What does that mean? Chen Shu immediately searched online, oh, just some small celebrities, no one got hurt.
However, someone saw Chu Yang's post and reposted it. Even tiny celebrities have fans. Soon several angry fans rushed in to scold Chu Yang in the comments.
"If my Qi Jun doesn't get caught cheating this week, I'm going to attack this blogger!"
"Fake prophet! Report this feudal superstition!"
"Sisters! Report this clout chasing!"
"What kind of trash are you? How dare you spread rumors about my brother cheating?"
"Scumbag! I hope you get hit by a car and die when you go outside."
Chu Yang saw these comments with no reaction. The truth would come out soon anyway.
But Jin Yang and the others were furious and started fighting with the fans directly. Chu Yang said not to fight back, the outcome would be revealed soon.
The comments under her post blew up quickly.
More people started checking out her Weibo after seeing the drama, some even followed after seeing her past weather prediction posts were surprisingly accurate according to the comments.
Some followed, some just browsed, but it became Chu Yang's most interacted Weibo post.
Ji Xiao's manager pays attention to online chatter, of course he saw Chu Yang's post and immediately called Ji Xiao: "You didn't give anyone inappropriate materials right? You're on the rise now."
Ji Xiao still had a woman lying next to him and he shushed her, "Bro, you know me. How could I possibly do that?"
The manager thought for a bit, "You're right. Okay, you still have an event tomorrow, remember that."
"Got it bro."
The next day, Chu Yang went back to predicting the weather. Maybe she could do a 'prediction of the week' sometime, predicting something different.
But under today's weather prediction, other than the usual comments from Yan Xu and the gang, there were also a few new angry comments from accounts similar to the anti-fans from yesterday.
Another round of fights broke out, and Yan Xu directly commented: I'm waiting for you all to get slapped in the face! Hahahaha!
Chen Shu: Esteemed prophet, I'll send you 100 yuan when you slap their faces! @ChuYang
When Chu Yang saw this... you really don't have to... although she does like money.
On Friday night, #JiXiao entering and exiting with a woman# trended, although only at the very end of trending topics.
"Who's this? Don't recognize him."
"Another male celeb got caught cheating. No one got hurt."
"I know him, he was in that TV drama 'Legend of Song Dynasty'. I used to think he was a decent actor. Can't believe this, tsk tsk."
"What's wrong with dating? Who still doesn't let celebrities date nowadays?"
"Some fans think their idols can't date, it's like betraying the fans."
"Never heard of this guy but he actually trended!"
After brewing for half an hour, a blogger named XiaoXiaoXin spoke up. She was Ji Xiao's girlfriend of 6 months, but the woman in the video was not her.
Scumbag?
Then the discussion under the topic turned to scolding Ji Xiao as a scumbag.
Disgustingly, two more female bloggers spoke up claiming to also be Ji Xiao's girlfriend... Not only that, his despicable actions like not using protection and forcing the girls to take contraceptive pills were also exposed.
Wow!
Huge gossip! Caught dating multiple women at once! And he's just a nobody! Not even good looking! The Ji Xiao team panicked with no one picking up calls. His manager scolded him and he had to pay a penalty for contract breach.
Chen Shu had been following the Ji Xiao and Qi Jun incident. Seeing the news online he immediately burst out laughing. His dormmates wondered what was up with him.
Chen Shu directly @'ed the anti-fans who had insulted Chu Yang under her prediction post:
@JiJiJiJiXiao @XiaoShengBuDuan @JiJiaRen @MaChengGongL @ThatSomeone'sLittleTiger
"Can you hear the 'slap slap slap slap slap' sounds? Hahahahaha"
Yan Xu, Jin Yang and the others quickly liked his comment.
Then they all left laughing comments.
None of the anti-fans dared to say anything.
Not only that, Chu Yang really did receive 100 yuan from Chen Shu.
Apart from Chen Shu and the gang, new followers also saw it and wondered if the blogger they followed was really that accurate?
Because #JiXiaoScumbag# was trending, people dug up Chu Yang's prediction post.
"The blogger predicted Ji Xiao's cheating a few days ago, she must have known something."
"Now the pressure is on the other nobody she named, Qi Jun."
"Don't tell me Qi Jun is also a scumbag?"
"Do scumbags just appear in pairs?"
Chu Yang's prediction post quickly exceeded 500 likes, and she gained a wave of new followers, some from Beijing who had seen her old weather prediction posts were surprisingly accurate according to the comments.
One girl from Beijing named Cheng Xiaoyu started following Chu Yang because of the Ji Xiao incident. When she clicked into the prophet's Weibo, she was surprised to see it was all weather predictions for Beijing?
