Chapter 54: Using a Charm Potion on Yan Yu?

In the livestream room.

Yan Yu's fans also noticed that Yan Yu's attention toward Luo Xixi was not ordinary.

【I've noticed that God Yu really likes to cue Luo Xixi. What is her background, anyway?】

【Isn't she just Luo Xinian's younger sister?】

【Don't overthink it! The siblings have always had a good relationship with God Yu. Luo Xixi did catch a snake with her bare hands earlier, so her strength is definitely greater than the average person's. God Yu is just expecting more from those capable; it's a very reasonable distribution. What's there to make a fuss about?】

【Then why don't we see God Yu having a good relationship with Luo Xinian's other sister? I see him being dismissive toward Luo Shiqing.】

【Hahaha, as for someone like Luo Shiqing, I don't like her either.】

The paid posters discovered someone speaking ill of Luo Shiqing and immediately began their dedicated screen-flooding:

【Top-tier fans, don't be so ridiculous. Why cue our Shiqing again? Is cyberbullying a civilian fun?】

【I don't even like that Luo Xixi; she looks like a pretentious white lotus at first glance. Shiqing dares to love and hate and bravely strives for things; she's ten thousand times better than Luo Xixi!】

【These Luo sisters clearly have a plastic sisterhood. Sister Shiqing has always been cautious around Luo Xixi. Who knows how Luo Xixi bullies her at home? And yet there are still people saying good things about her. Do these paid posters take any money they can get? Do they have any conscience left?!】

Being bombarded by the paid posters.

A group of passersby in the livestream room also began to rebel.

【Who exactly are the paid posters here? Isn't this Luo Shiqing a civilian? How did she suddenly get so many people helping her speak?】

【This Luo Shiqing's fans are like mad dogs, biting everyone they see. Terrifying!】

【Isn't the pretentious one Luo Shiqing? First, she threw herself at Yan Yu, saying she was worried about her sister, but when Luo Xixi got hurt, it was Suna who bandaged her! Now she wants to pick coconuts with the boys; could her intentions be any more obvious!】

The paid posters immediately counterattacked.

【Luo Xixi's dogs have started biting! I'm a passerby, and I just like the obedient type like Sister Shiqing. Unlike Luo Xixi, who gets screen time even when she hasn't done anything. They're both Luo Xinian's sisters; is Yan Yu being too biased?】

【Passersby only love Luo Shiqing! Can't we be rebellious if we don't like Luo Xixi?】

【Luo Xixi's paid posters, don't be so ridiculous. They are sisters, yet she buys paid posters to slander her own younger sister. Is she even human?】

【I really hate Luo Xixi! Can she just quit the variety show? The show is so hard to watch with her there! The livestream room is also a mess!】

【Host, the livestream room is arguing.】

Baby System suddenly came online to report to Luo Xixi.

Luo Xixi was dumbfounded, 【Huh? What are they arguing about? (⊙_⊙?)】

【The heroine's fans have been scolding you! Your reputation in the livestream room is currently terrible!】

【No, why are the heroine's fans scolding me? Did I provoke her?】

【Please wait, tracing the source.】

After a few seconds.

Baby System came back online to report: 【Found it. It's the male lead who bought paid posters for the heroine to increase her popularity. Because you are currently overshadowing the heroine, the paid posters hired by the male lead are crazily blackening your name!】

【Wait, how did the male lead get involved too??】

【Because the heroine and the male lead have already developed mutual affection. It's likely that seeing her suffer "grievances" on the variety show made him spontaneously want to protect the heroine.】

Baby System analyzed.

【That's even possible?!】

Luo Xixi felt speechless.

Hearing Baby System mention Sheng Tinglan, Luo Xixi couldn't help but think of the "filthy thing" from her past life.

Back then, that filthy thing used her like a tool for the sake of his white moonlight. Now, the male lead, who shares the same shell as that filthy thing, is also completely disregarding her, the Cannon Fodder, for the sake of this world's heroine.

She didn't even provoke him, yet he could send paid posters to smear her. As expected, anyone sharing a shell with that filthy thing is bound to be black-hearted to some extent—not a single good one among them! Ptooey!!

At the same time.

Sheng Group.

Sheng Tinglan was just about to head to the conference hall when he suddenly sneezed.

"Achoo..."

"Mr. Sheng?"

The secretary-general nearby saw this and asked, "Are you alright? Have you caught a cold?"

"No..."

Sheng Tinglan wiped his nose, his handsome, heroic brows furrowing slightly. He didn't know why, but he had a strong feeling that someone was cursing him behind his back.

And as soon as he thought of the person cursing him, inexplicably, Luo Xixi's face popped into Sheng Tinglan's mind.

That woman who shared the same name as Xixi had vomited in front of him the first time they met. Although she claimed she was feeling unwell and didn't mean to, Sheng Tinglan always felt she was trying to cover up her true intentions.

She had vomited specifically at him!

Damn it.

Why would he think of her at a time like this?

"How is that Wilderness Survival variety show livestream doing now? Has Luo Shiqing's reputation improved?"

Sheng Tinglan asked calmly.

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, the secretary-general thought to himself that Mr. Sheng really cared about that young lady of the Luo Family, keeping her in mind at all times. He immediately reported, "I have already spoken with the public relations department; they will have people maintain Miss Luo's image at all times. I just checked, and Miss Luo's reputation is already improving. We will continue to have people monitor the livestream room's trends."

"..."

After listening to the secretary-general's report, Sheng Tinglan had no reaction. His eyes flickered, and he inexplicably asked another question, "Then what about that older sister of hers? Is she still with..."

Sheng Tinglan had intended to ask if Luo Xixi was still interacting with Yan Yu, but unexpectedly, the system appeared: 【Host, please do not engage in behavior that breaks your character. Your attention should remain on the heroine at all times. Do not focus on other women, as it will cause plot deviations.】

【Tch...】

Hearing the system's warning, Sheng Tinglan couldn't help but click his tongue.

"Older sister? You mean Luo Xixi?"

The secretary-general was startled. Wasn't Sheng Tinglan concerned about Luo Shiqing? Why was he asking about her older sister, Luo Xixi, again? To protect Luo Shiqing's image, Luo Xixi's reputation was currently quite poor; if Sheng Tinglan were to look into this matter, what should be done?

"Um, President Sheng, regarding Luo Xixi's reputation, she..."

The secretary-general was just about to bite the bullet and report, but was suddenly interrupted by Sheng Tinglan, "Forget it, there's no need to tell me about Luo Xixi's situation; just keep an eye on Luo Shiqing."

After saying this, he walked quickly toward the conference hall.

"Eh?"

The secretary-general was stunned, then breathed a sigh of relief as if he had narrowly escaped disaster. It seemed he had overthought it; what Sheng Tinglan cared about most was indeed still Luo Shiqing!

On the deserted island.

After being called out by Yan Yu, Luo Xixi had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand up, then she laid some groundwork for herself, saying, "Um, Teacher Yan, I'm a clumsy person. If I cause trouble for you all in a moment, please don't blame me."

Yan Yu smiled lightly at Luo Xixi and cheered her on, saying, "It's fine, I believe Xixi will do well. You shouldn't be so self-deprecating; you must believe that you can do it."

Luo Xixi: "..."

Second male lead, where on earth do you get the confidence to think I can do it? You're just trying to kill me with kindness!

Wolfish ambition!

Vicious intentions!!

Luo Shiqing watched from the side, feeling incredibly jealous, and gritted her teeth in her heart: 【System, can you think of a way to stop the second male lead from interacting with Luo Xixi?! If this goes on, who is the female lead anyway?!】

The Heartthrob System came online and offered an idea to Luo Shiqing: 【Host, use the Charm Water on the second male lead.】

【Use the Charm Water?】 Luo Shiqing was surprised and asked: 【Will this be effective? Didn't you say the second male lead likely has a system? Is the Charm Water effective on people who have a system?】

The Heartthrob System explained: 【Using Charm Water on a character who has developed self-awareness will have a negligible effect, but this way, we can also determine if the other party truly has a system.】

【Alright!】

After hearing this, Luo Shiqing said impatiently: 【Then hurry up and use the Charm Water on Yan Yu! Make his Disgust Value toward Luo Xixi rise to the maximum!!】

【Received.】
