Chapter 395: Chapter 396 The Most Touching Words
Back then, a sense of defiance choked up in her, and as she sensed she could survive, hope ignited in her heart like a flame, warming her entire cold body, breaking free from the suffocating constraints.
Having died once, He Jinxia understood very well the self-loathing and helplessness felt by overweight individuals, and if she could, she wanted to help them to the best of her ability.
It wasn’t about the fame; it was about a self-rescuer who once struggled with obesity, wishing to share her weight loss journey with more people.
Because He Jinxia wasn’t fluent in foreign languages, Tony and Luo You had to translate for her, and the overweight individuals all gathered around them.
Luo You took some effort to get them to line up, allowing only one question per person.
But all their questions were recorded, and He Jinxia’s answers were loudly translated by Luo You through a loudspeaker to ensure every overweight individual could hear them.
What He Jinxia and the others didn’t know was that everything happening at the banquet was being recorded with mobile phones and uploaded to social media.
Some even started a Huaxia live stream on the spot, drawing many fans and onlookers to watch.
As time ticked by, the three hours quickly passed, and all the plus-sized guests had asked their questions and received answers; both parties ended the event thrilled.
He Jinxia scanned the room and was about to suggest to Luo You that it was time to disperse, when suddenly, a young foreign man dashed up to her with a handsome smile on his face, and in somewhat broken Huaxia, asked,
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
He Jinxia paused momentarily, then a fitting smile spread across her face, a hint of mischief twinkling in her eyes, as she humorously replied, "You guess."
This scene was live-streamed throughout, and Huaxia fans started flooding the screen with comments:
[Lad, I admire your courage to pursue the goddess despite the odds!]
[Back off, can you even dream of my goddess? She’s my wife.]
[Poor thing, that foreign guy looks so confused.]
[Drooling, am I the only one who thinks this lad is handsome? Look closely, hey, he’s as good-looking as a foreign star!]
[He’s got the looks, but to marry my goddess, he’ll need the consent of our 108 generals.]
...
Upon discovering the secretly filmed live stream featuring He Jinxia online, Zhang Dayou immediately contacted the host in private, asking for the video to be sent to He Jinxia’s studio after the filming and removed from the website.
The host agreed cheerfully.
It wasn’t until He Jinxia and Luo You left the hotel and took a night flight back to Nernas that she found out the news about her fan meet-up in Huaxia had spread, along with the video, sparking many discussions among fans and passersby.
Back at the hotel they had stayed in Nernas, He Jinxia finally allowed herself to breathe a sigh of relief, lazily stretching out on the bed.
Sister Xiao Hua was organizing clothes nearby, while Luo You stood to one side, reading the comments from Huaxia’s fans to He Jinxia.
The comments essentially fell into three categories: praise, discontent, and slander.
Those praising naturally complimented their own star as top-notch, with artistic integrity, amiable to foreign friends, even more so to foreign overweight individuals, kindhearted, and so on.
Those discontented clearly felt that He Jinxia had never held a fan meet-up in Huaxia, yet had one abroad, resentfully doodling circles in a dark corner to vent their frustration.
Those who slandered her naturally thought He Jinxia was just showboating, causing trouble even away from Huaxia in M country, a little expert in publicity stunts.
First her dress photos from fashion week went viral, then she was surrounded by foreign fans and had to use police to clear a path, and now, just as fashion week came to an end, she staged a fan meet-up, causing her detractors to roar from the depths of their souls:
[I just want to know, can He Jinxia’s drama ever cease?]
To all of this, He Jinxia remained indifferent.
After listening to Luo You, she shrugged and laid back down on the bed, "Some things trend without my wishing, and without any push, they still make it up there in a rather muddled fashion, what can I say?"
Luo You silently turned off his phone, calmly commenting, "This shows that you are in the spotlight, because you’re popular, so every move you make will be dug up, even overly interpreted."
"Because you’re popular, the media will focus on you, you represent trends, sensational headlines, and sky-high click rates."
"Because you’re popular, competition and suppression from your peers and malicious distortions by the media will all happen to you one by one. So, are you scared now?"
He Jinxia’s lips curled into a slight smile, and she chuckled softly, her eyes sparkling with an eager light, "I fear nothing."
She was also curious to see how far she could go in this world, this entertainment circle pyramid where there was always another level to climb—she wondered just how high she could rise.
Late at night, with moonlight shimmering like water, He Jinxia was surprisingly wide awake, suffering from a rare bout of insomnia.
She tossed and turned in her bed, occasionally glancing at Cheng Xiaohua, seeing her sleep so soundly and even snoring softly, a trace of envy in her eyes.
He Jinxia opened her phone, the chat interface on WeChat was a blank slate.
Earlier, things had been so hectic, and when she went to ring the neighboring doorbell she found that Sheng Yan wasn’t there. Only then did He Jinxia remember that he had a fashion show that day and was likely attending PDZ’s celebration banquet that evening.
When she turned off the lights to go to sleep, she hadn’t heard any noise in the hallway, and now that it was so late, she had no idea whether Sheng Yan had come back or not.
Bored to the extreme, He Jinxia sent Sheng Yan a "peeping" emoji with perhaps some mischievous thought in mind.
Who would have thought that in the next instant, with a "ding-dong," Sheng Yan immediately sent back a "sneaky glance" emoji.
He Jinxia’s eyes brightened, her lips lifting into a smile, and she quickly set her phone volume to silent before typing:
[Why aren’t you sleeping yet?]
Sheng Yan typed back: [Can’t sleep.]
He Jinxia: [Why can’t you sleep?]
Sheng Yan: [I’m missing someone.]
He Jinxia: ...
In her heart, she reminded herself once again that it seemed Sheng Yan had decided to commit to the "shameless" and "slick-tongued" persona in front of her.
An exasperated smile crept across her face. Did Sheng Yan have any idea that this persona didn’t match his cold exterior at all?
He Jinxia buried her head in the pillow, smoothing over the good mood Mr. Sheng had stirred up, and typed:
[Where are you?]
Sheng Yan: [In the hotel.]
After hesitating for a second, Jinxia still decided to indulge the yearning in her heart.
He Jinxia: [I will come to find you.]
Before she could even move from the bed, Sheng Yan’s message had already come through.
Sheng Yan: [I’m not in your hotel [covering face crying]]
He Jinxia: [...]
Sheng Yan: [I’m coming to look for you now.]
He Jinxia: [No need to [tsundere]]
Sheng Yan’s lips quirked up slightly, he brought his phone to his lips, and said slowly and tenderly:
"But I miss you."
When He Jinxia played this voice message quietly, her cheeks suddenly flushed, and once again she buried her head in the pillow.
This was the most delightful sentence she had heard all night.
Suddenly, her tired body seemed to have been charged with new energy~
