Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At 13:14 in the afternoon, the official page for Calming the Cosmos posted an announcement on Weibo. [#TVDramaCalmingtheCosmos# The first time I laid eyes on you is ingrained in my memory. You were standing on a lotus in a rippling pond, hidden in the depths of a valley. In that dress, you were like an ethereal being @AnWen]
The post came with the last sentence describing Qing Sha.
A photo was attached to the post. It was a photo of a girl in white attire stepping on a lotus as she levitated in the air. Her gaze was beautiful and cold, as if the world around her had nothing to do with her. Blown by the wind, her white veil covered her face.
An Wen smiled when she saw Calming the Cosmos had posted a picture that did not reveal her face.
After scrolling down to look at the comments, she found out that the number of haters had reduced significantly. Although many people still rejected the idea, she could tell that other opinions had started filling in.
[She’s too elegant. This lady’s eyes look so dreamy.]
[This newbie is so pretty.]
[I can’t believe that I have nothing to complain about. I… I’m kind when it comes to beauty.]
[She hasn’t revealed her whole face yet. Who knows, she might just have a set of beautiful eyes. I don’t think she’s elegant enough to play Qing Sha. Thank you.]
…
An Wen’s Weibo account did not even have a yellow ‘V’1 yet. It was obvious to everyone that the account had just been registered since she had not posted a single thing on Weibo.
She shared the official news on Weibo. [Buckle up! //TVDrama Calming the Cosmos: #TVDramaCalmingtheCosmos# The first time I laid eyes on you is ingrained in my memory. You were standing on a lotus in a rippling pond, hidden in the depths of a valley. In that dress, you were like an ethereal being @AnWen]
Soon, many fans of the novel started commenting on the post.
[I’m sorry, no one is worthy of playing Qing Sha. You’re not worthy at all.]
[Can you please post a selfie of yourself?]
[I can’t accept anyone playing my Goddess Qing!]
…
Although these comments were swiftly buried, An Wen still felt warmth in her heart when she saw it.
The novel’s fans and other passersby had clicked into An Wen’s Weibo in the hopes of checking out her looks when they saw the photo of the masked Qing Sha. However, her Weibo only had one post.
Hence, the quote “Qing Sha An Wen” had been slowly crawling into the trending list. Many people on the internet kept asking who she was but no one was able to give an answer.
Since An Wen had not signed a contract with any agency, no one was promoting her. Furthermore, her friends back at school were not able to recognize her since the picture had only shown her eyes. Thus, the people on the internet could not find any news no matter how hard they tried.
The number of fans of An Wen’s Weibo started skyrocketing from 10 people and it only took a short while to reach 50,000 fans. The majority of them were curious about how she looked like and she even had a few fans of hers already.
Ye Qiaofeng was incredibly satisfied with the outcome. He hated people getting hyped about celebrities as being too hyped up might not be a good thing for the show.
The exam papers for Di City No. 1 High School had been handed over to the teachers. Exams that were taken in the morning were generally done being marked in the afternoon. The teachers would then tell the subject representatives the approximate results.
The Chinese subject’s representative said in the advanced class’ Wechat group that Wu Yufei was ranked first in that subject. An Wen had been the one who topped the class in this subject for the previous exam as her score was higher than Wu Yufei by 3 marks. Once they heard the news, they believed that Wu Yufei’s score might surpass An Wen’s this time.
Tang Rui’s language results had never been higher than Wu Yufei’s in the past, but his science subjects were always close to perfect. He simply could not compete against Wu Yufei in languages, in spite of how good his results were. Both of them had their strengths and a balance had been maintained between them.
As a result, everyone believed that the one that would top the school would either be Tang Rui or Wu Yufei.
