Chapter 1159: Natural Ditz and Aloofness

"Heave-ho, heave-ho!"

Li Xiaomiao was working hard lifting weights in the gym, shouting slogans as she lifted.

If her father were here, he wouldn't believe that the girl in front of him was his daughter.

When she arrived, Li Xiaomiao weighed nearly 300 pounds. She wasn't particularly tall, and she walked like a moving mountain of flesh.

But now, the fat that made her look like a Michelin man had clearly "subsided," especially in the buttocks and waist, the two areas where fat accumulated most easily; the shrinkage was the most obvious.

As for her limbs, because her daily exercise volume was quite large, the weight loss effect on her limbs was also quite obvious, just not as exaggerated as the previous two places.

According to the electronic scale, her weight was now 236 pounds.

She had lost 64 pounds in seven days, nearly 10 pounds a day. If this speed were told to others, probably no one would believe it.

Although she was still livestreaming every day, because of her body shape, the audience couldn't tell for the time being.

When she lost weight to 180 or 190 pounds, the audience would probably suddenly exclaim: Why is Li Xiaomiao so thin now?!

This was what the boss told her: "I want to lose weight silently and then amaze everyone." Thinking of this, she couldn't help but speed up her weight lifting.

"Are you also an artist preparing to participate in Huan Yu Girls?" A voice sounded from behind.

Li Xiaomiao put down the dumbbells and turned to see Dongfang Chen, who looked curious.

"Such... such a beautiful sister." Li Xiaomiao couldn't help but say, "Sister, with your full head of snow-white hair, you wouldn't be from the White Dragon Clan, would you?"

"Did the boss tell you?" Dongfang Chen was very surprised. She had even retracted her dragon horns, so how was she recognized at a glance?

"I guessed it. After all, in my impression, only the White Dragon Clan is relatively close to you, sister." Li Xiaomiao stood up and wiped her face with the towel on her shoulder: "I am a member of the Kate Clan. Just call me Li Xiaomiao."

"Dongfang Chen." Dongfang Chen was sparing with her words and looked like she was not easy to get along with.

"Sister, listening to the question you just asked, are you also signed by the boss to participate in Huan Yu Girls now?" Li Xiaomiao looked at Dongfang Chen's good figure with envy and asked gently.

Dongfang Chen nodded: "Thanks to the boss's appreciation, she gave me an independent opportunity. Then what about you? Are you the same as me?"

"The boss promised me that I could lose weight, so I came." Li Xiaomiao said, lifting the "swimming ring" on her stomach. "I used to think how could I be an idol star like this? But after these days, I found that losing weight doesn't seem so difficult, and the netizens here are also very friendly, encouraging me every day."

"Are you sure they aren't looking at your jokes?" Dongfang Chen felt that the difficulty of losing weight was too great when she saw Li Xiaomiao's body shape.

At Huan Yu, some people would be very enthusiastic when they saw girls of this body shape, but they were all in a mentality of looking for ugliness and novelty, purely looking for fun in fat girls.

They didn't care whether fat girls could lose weight; they just wanted to see her work hard for a few days, finally announce that the weight loss failed, and then eat and drink recklessly in self-abandonment.

"How could that be!" Li Xiaomiao obviously didn't think so. "The fans in the livestream room are very sincere. They even gave me nice nicknames."

Dongfang Chen looked at Li Xiaomiao: "How were the nicknames given?"

"Fatty Meow..."

"Isn't this still looking for fun at your expense?" Dongfang Chen was speechless.

Li Xiaomiao scratched her head and said: "But it's a fact that I'm fat. I'm quite fat now, and being chubby sounds quite cute. If I lose weight in the future, won't this title become a term of endearment?"

"I don't know if you're a natural ditz or if your brain is missing a string." Dongfang Chen shook her head. "Then you should practice well and strive to make the derogatory nickname become positive and active."

Just as she finished speaking, Wen Xia and Luo Quan walked in.

"Have you two already met?" Luo Quan asked with a smile.

"Boss, Sister Xia." Dongfang Chen called out very politely.

Although she didn't like interpersonal communication usually, if it was someone she had to communicate with, she would become very polite.

"I just chatted with Sister Dongfang for a while, and she even praised me for being cute." Li Xiaomiao laughed.

Dongfang Chen looked confused: "When did I praise you for being cute?"

Li Xiaomiao was also stunned: "Didn't you just say I was a natural ditz? I remember it said on the internet that natural ditz means cute."

"If you think so, then so be it." Dongfang Chen was a bit speechless.

"It's most important for you to get along well, because you might have to cooperate together for a long, long time in the future." Wen Xia clapped her hands with a smile.

Just now she had already met Dongfang Chen. Luo Quan said that this was someone who came to defect to her from that Daughter Island yesterday, another great beauty, but her personality was a bit cold.

However, in a girl group, there must be members with various personalities so that each idol can have her own characteristics, making this girl group attract more people.

"Starting today, I will teach you some basic dance moves. Dongfang Chen has a better foundation, so it will be easier. As for Xiaomiao, you have to work harder."

Wen Xia went directly to the open space and started the most basic teaching: "The most basic thing about K-pop is rhythm. Every song has its own rhythm. For beginners, you have to use your chest to connect with it, and finally your limbs..."

As she spoke, Wen Xia started playing a song and then let Li Xiaomiao and Dongfang Chen find the rhythm of the song.

Speaking of rhythm, it's actually finding the beat. There is a concept in dance called "stepping on the point," which is used in many modern dances.

While the two were learning in the front, Luo Quan was filming and livestreaming in the back with her mobile phone. The title of the livestream was "Company Newcomers Learning K-pop from Seniors."

Because there were still several days before the semi-finals of the Singing Contest, the netizens were very idle, so they clicked in as soon as they saw the title—very fast, without hesitation.

"Is Wen Xia starting to teach now? Does this mean she doesn't plan to go on stage to perform anymore?"

"Wen Xia is also in her twenties. Girls' groups basically start to transform at this age. It's very normal to be a teacher and teach apprentices."

"Time really doesn't forgive people. The pride of the Chinese idol world in the past is now starting to be a teacher. It's really sigh-inducing."

"I feel that Wen Xia's state has been quite good recently. She looks like a student who just graduated from high school. She's so fresh and watery."

"If you were as rich as her, you could also maintain yourself so fresh and watery."

"By the way, did no one notice the female student who is learning to dance?"

"Xiaomiao, right? She feels thinner than before. Weight loss is beginning to show results."

"You guys are really pretending to be confused. The one you're clearly talking about is the white-haired girl next to her!"

"Haha, I wanted to say it a long time ago. I don't seem to have seen this sister before. This figure is quite tall."

"Should be a newcomer. Luo Bao's Crystal Palace has added another fierce general."

"To be precise, it's my harem."

"Hurry up and dream. Even your great-grandmother is in your dream."

"Hahahaha, the aggressiveness of this year's netizens is quite good."

……………………

A beauty like Dongfang Chen could become the focus wherever she was. Even if it was just a back view, it caused netizens to discuss it endlessly.

And when she turned around inadvertently and exposed her cold and beautiful appearance to the camera, the barrage in the livestream room became even more turbulent, all of them confessing and shouting "wife."

Such a scene basically happened every time the company recruited newcomers.

Even as fat as Li Xiaomiao, someone shouted "wife" in the livestream room at that time.

As for whether it was sincere or just for fun, that was unknown.

As for the present, those shouting "wife" at Dongfang Chen in the livestream room must be sincere.

The only pity was that Dongfang Chen hadn't learned Chinese yet, so during the break, Luo Quan asked her to greet the fans, and she just squeezed out a smile and waved.

If another female star greeted like this, she would probably be flamed by angry netizens immediately.

We audience are your food and clothing parents, how dare you act so arrogant?

But Dongfang Chen's cold temperament gave people an unusual feeling, making people feel that she was already very cooperative by being able to greet them.

Perhaps this is why aloof people are more likely to get the forgiveness and accommodation of those around them.

Of course, Dongfang Chen's appearance also played a great role.

If it were Li Xiaomiao who put on a stinky face, she would probably have been scolded onto the hot search long ago.

However, Li Xiaomiao's personality was such that even if she was scolded by others, she was still happy. She looked kind and likable, so the audience also had a good impression of her.

However, the good impressions of Li Xiaomiao and Dongfang Chen were two completely different things.

Luo Quan looked at the barrage, not expecting that Dongfang Chen would accidentally make the fans have a beautiful misunderstanding, which was very helpful for her to establish a persona.

Originally, Luo Quan thought about letting Dongfang Chen take the tsundere route, but it seemed that the aloof style was more popular, so why not just choose this one? Anyway, she didn't like to talk.

Looking at Dongfang Chen who was bowing her head and studying how to use her mobile phone, Luo Quan felt that this was a good idea.

The livestream didn't last long. Wen Xia's dance studio soon started teaching again. The mechanical and incoherent training really had nothing to watch, so Luo Quan took her mobile phone and returned to her room.

"Don't, Luo Bao, I still want to see Xiaomiao dance."

"Are you going for Xiaomiao? You clearly want to see the white-haired one!"

"Don't call her white-haired, she has a name."

"By the way, what is this beautiful lady's name? I haven't heard Luo Bao say it yet."

………………

"Her name is Dongfang Chen." Luo Quan typed the name on the computer. "How about it, is this name nice?"

"It sounds domineering at first listen!"

"It would be nice if Chen was changed to Invincible."

"Haha, the leader, right? But I think Dongfang Chen's expression is really suitable for playing the Eastern Leader."

"Indeed, that temperament looks like the material for playing a strong woman."

………………

"Your judgment is quite accurate." Luo Quan laughed. "But Chenchen hasn't learned acting, and most of her energy is currently on learning to dance, so if you want to see her play Dongfang Invincible, you probably have to wait for a long, long time."

Hearing this, the fans expressed that it was very uncomfortable:

"Now I understand a little bit why those idols don't learn acting and come out to film TV dramas. This is to prevent fans from waiting too long."

"Haha, I really want Chenchen to debut immediately now. I won't blame her even if she doesn't act well."

"Haha, everyone scolds the fan circle, and everyone is in the fan circle."

"No way, after all, the essence of human beings is double standards."

………………

The fans in the livestream room sounded very tolerant, but Luo Quan was not deceived by their words at all.

After all, the number of people watching the livestream didn't represent all of Dongfang Chen's future audiences, and there were even fewer people sending barrages.

Therefore, if she really let Dongfang Chen go to act without any training, it would simply be asking for scolding.

If she didn't have super talent, then after Dongfang Chen filmed it, her career would definitely suffer a devastating blow.

So for her sake, Luo Quan would definitely not do such a stupid thing as draining the pond to catch fish.

"Let Chenchen practice outside first. It's not too late to film after having some acting skills. After all, she is still young, and I have plenty of good scripts here. I will definitely keep the ones suitable for her."

The barrage suddenly brushed with envy:

"Haha, having a boss who is a screenwriter is comfortable."

"Being an artist in Luo Bao's company is simply too lucky. All kinds of resources are endless."

"I really want to be kept by Luo Bao. I don't want to struggle anymore."

"Ask who doesn't want to? Even if Luo Bao is seventy or eighty, I won't dislike her."

"Haha, if Luo Bao is seventy or eighty, won't people rush to go? After all, she can be sent away immediately."

"On the topic of shamelessness, it still has to be you guys."

"Boiling the old lady, right? Don't worry, Luo Bao will take you with her when she leaves."

………………

Looking at these fans discussing her situation when she was seventy or eighty, Luo Quan couldn't help but laugh.

With her current lifespan, by the time the grass on these fans' graves was three feet high, she probably wouldn't have a single wrinkle.

They were simply not in the same dimension.

But such words definitely couldn't be said, so she could only think about it in her heart.

"Luo Bao, can you comment on New York's air pollution?"

A question suddenly appeared on the barrage. Luo Quan saw the question and knew that the United States was in trouble again.

After searching, she found that the sky in New York had turned yellowish, and the specific reason was a chain reaction caused by the wildfires in neighboring Canada.

Originally, these fires started within Canada, and the focus of the disaster was also in the Montreal area of Canada.

Who knew that a sudden gust of wind blew all the smog caused by the fire to the south and into the United States.

Then, New York, which didn't have much to do with this fire, suffered.

Seeing this news, even Luo Quan, who didn't like to laugh at natural and man-made disasters, couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Although it's indeed unlucky, don't New Yorkers have any responsibility at all?" ===== CHAPTER 1160 =====
