Chapter 1413: Su Manman Stands in Front
“We can’t touch Su Manman!” Du Lingyang said. “She’s the only daughter of the prominent Fu family in Haicheng. It’s inevitable for rich ladies to indulge a little, so you might as well wrap things up in a while. Just bear with it and I’ll buy you a group of online fans to clear your name. Don’t worry!”
Meng Yuqiao hung up the call and cried on the bed for a long time…
She had fought for this role with much difficulty, and it was because she valued this female lead as a likable character. Who would have thought Su Manman would appear out of nowhere and steal all her limelight!
This Su Manman was as annoying as Jiang Mingzhu back then!
…
As a manager, Tu Jie knew that Su Manman would definitely become popular. However, he had predicted that she would only become popular after “The Olden Days” was released.
Although Tu Jie hadn’t expected such a situation, he was, after all, a veteran manager. He adjusted to the situation promptly and assigned some bodyguards to Su Manman. He took advantage of Su Manman’s skyrocketing popularity to quickly arrange advertisements and endorsements for her.
Tu Jie had high hopes for Su Manman. He wouldn’t accept just any brands for her to endorse!
Tu Jie classified Su Manman as a high-end celebrity, so the brand she would endorse had to be high-end brands from the start. This was the image he had set for Su Manman.
After “The Battle of the House of Horrors” was broadcasted, Su Manman became the hottest celebrity.
On the show, Su Manman and Shi Hanchu’s performance after entering the haunted house was a stark contrast to the two cameramen, making the audience burst out laughing…
Su Manman also wasn’t afraid to pick up the scalpel. Moreover, before she left, she had the cheeks to pat the ghost’s shoulder to comfort her. The screen was full with comments like “Elder Feng Yi is mighty”, “Give Elder Feng Yi a knee~”, “Awesome Elder Feng Yi!”.
Then, when Su Manman pretended to be weak and was helped out by Shi Hanchu to scare the others, the audience lamented about how naughty Su Manman was when acting with the best actor..
Some also said that Shi Hanchu and Su Manman looked compatible!
This resulted in Shi Hanchu and Su Manman having fans that shipped them as well. They called themselves Time Manman[1]. The fans cut out the scenes from “The Battle of the House of Horrors” and manipulated them in such sweet ways.
Even Little Song, who was by Shi Hanchu’s side, had joined the “Time Manman” fan club. That’s right… After Little Song watched the entire show, he became Shi Hanchu and Su Manman’s shipper. He even hoped that Shi Hanchu and Su Manman would end up together.
After filming “The Olden Days,” it was time for Su Manman to work with Shi Hanchu.
As soon as Su Manman arrived at the set, she sat there with her eyes closed, letting Yang Weiyi put on makeup for her. Her brows remained furrowed.
Yang Weiyi was aware of Su Manman and Shi Hanchu having their fans that ship them. How could she not know? Su Manman was the most popular celebrity recently.
Yang Weiyi didn’t like this feeling. She felt as if Su Manman had snatched away Jiang Mingzhu’s Shi Hanchu!
Moreover, Yang Weiyi felt that… Su Manman was planning to snatch Shi Hanchu away from her, making her dislike Su Manman even more!
She was imitating Sister Mingzhu to snatch Brother Hanchu, Yang Weiyi felt that she had to do something.
At the thought of meeting Shi Hanchu soon, Su Manman felt a little guilty.
That day in Japan, she and Shi Hanchu had parted on bad terms. Even though Su Manman knew all of Shi Hanchu’s accounts, including his alternate accounts, they hadn’t contacted each other until today…
“Manman! Manman!” Su Manman’s assistant pushed open the door and entered. She sat down next to Su Manman and said to her, “God Shi has arrived! I don’t know who leaked the news that you’re filming with God Shi today, but your shippers are already waiting outside with support signs in their hands. God Shi is still signing autographs for the fans on the banners with both your names and drawings!”
There was a hint of excitement in Dong Dong’s voice.
Recently, more and more fans became the shippers of Su Manman and Shi Hanchu. Perhaps because compared to the amount of videos, Shi Hanchu and Su Manman had more videos together than Gu Chengfeng and Su Manman.
They made a drawing of Su Manman and Shi Hanchu when they encountered a ghost that suddenly appeared before them… It was of Shi Hanchu calmly walking around the ghost, Su Manman patting the ghost’s shoulder, and of the ghost having a tearful expression.
The drawing had gone viral quickly. Everyone said it was extremely adorable.
“Mm…” Su Manman replied softly with no hint of excitement at all.
Dong Dong widened her eyes and looked at Yang Weiyi, seemingly wanting to know what had happened. Yang Weiyi smiled and shook her head, indicating that she didn’t know.
Su Manman wasn’t as excited as Dong Dong had expected for her sudden popularity. Instead, she appeared as if she was used to such a situation. After that, she began to admire Su Manman’s calmness.
Little did she know, Su Manman had long gotten used to such a chaotic life.
“Manman, only eye makeup is left!”
Su Manman got up and reached out to touch the cup. When she opened her eyes, she realized that there wasn’t a cup at all.
“Dong Dong, please pour me a glass of water!” Su Manman said.
Dong Dong quickly poured a cup of warm water for Su Manman.
Su Manman frowned. She was used to drinking cold water. “In the future, prepare a cup of water for me when I’m putting on makeup. I want to drink it after I’m done with my makeup. It has to be cold.”
Yang Weiyi’s hand, which was holding the eyeliner, paused. She lowered her gaze and took out a makeup brush to help Su Manman put on makeup.
Su Manman was imitating Sister Mingzhu…
Su Manman was too scary. How did she know Sister Mingzhu’s many habits?
However, Yang Weiyi was just an employee. She didn’t ask her anything and only focused on doing her job.
After she was done with her makeup and costume, Su Manman proceeded to film a scene with another actor. Shi Hanchu was putting on makeup.
After taking a few simple shots, Su Manman saw that Shi Hanchu was already done with his preparations and came over in a military suit, looking handsome.
Shi Hanchu’s legs were long to begin with, and he was wearing a white and gold- embroidered military uniform. There was a medal and a sword hung on it, looking exquisite beyond comparison. His black boots made Shi Hanchu look even more imposing.
This scene was the first meeting between Su Manman and Shi Hanchu. Shi Hanchu got out of the car and saw Su Manman standing in the queue.
The filming started.
Su Manman stood in front of the line, tall and heroic, not looking sideways…
Shi Hanchu got out of the car, holding his military hat in his hand. Just as he was about to go up the stairs, he saw Su Manman. He stopped in his tracks and looked at Su Manman with his deep eyes.
Their gazes met, and the fists by Su Manman’s side clenched slightly. Shi Hanchu narrowed his eyes, a faint smile appearing on his lips. After putting on his hat, he stepped on the red carpet and walked up the stairs.
The second scene was more difficult.
Su Manman had already removed her military costume and became Shi Hanchu’s mistress. She was looking forward to Shi Hanchu coming to see her every day…
[1] Shi in Shi Hanchu’s name means Time. Manman is Su Manman’s name, but it also means Time Passes
