“I’ve read the original work, and it seems the script hasn’t changed the order. Other plot points are the same, but Ling Anjun just hasn’t appeared… His total screen time is not much.”
“I suddenly have a terrible guess – have Ling Anjun’s scenes been cut?”
This revelation of the truth drew a chorus of exclamations:
“Wow, don’t scare me, I’m here to watch the drama just for my beautiful Ling Anjun!”
“He is indeed good-looking.”
When I first saw the picture, I thought this handsome guy was truly delicate, with good acting skills, completely moving with every gesture. I specifically looked up the drama’s name for him. This actor seems not very famous and hasn’t acted in other dramas.
“He seems to be not a professional actor, but a graduate student from T University named Luo Yingbai. I couldn’t find his name in the cast list; it seems he was really cut.”
“No! I’ve been living on that GIF recently, almost obsessed, I want to see Ling Anjun!”
Perhaps the more unattainable something is, the more precious it becomes. The online world was full of howls, all clamoring to see Ling Anjun, but sorry, these netizens were going to be disappointed.
Director Xiao looked at the bustling comment section and thought for a long time but didn’t dare to reply. He had seen Luo Yingbai’s potential at first glance, but he didn’t expect that just a few photos and GIFs could create such a sensation. Perhaps next time he should find a better role and definitely ask him to act.
When Director Xiao harbored this naive thought, he didn’t know that Luo Yingbai would later consecutively win the champion position for ten terms with an overwhelmingly dominant vote in the question “Who do you most hope could make a living by his face, but he insists on relying on talent,” becoming a legendary figure in the industry.
However, even the most ardent supporters of Brother White started to have doubts. The furor online escalated quickly, with people both defending and attacking him based on the accusations from Xu Zhe.
Amidst all this chaos, the information about Brother White’s past surfaced. A few users began digging into old forums and past accounts, trying to uncover any dirt that could tarnish Brother White’s already rising reputation. Some memes and jokes about his appearance started circulating, adding fuel to the fire.
Meanwhile, Luo Yingbai attempted to maintain a neutral stance during the dispute, hoping to keep his own reputation intact while observing the drama unfold. He chose to act as a mediator and urged his fans not to engage in any personal attacks against Xu Zhe. However, his interventions went largely ignored as the online community became increasingly polarized.
As the debate raged on, both Brother White and Xu Zhe seemed to be thriving on the newfound attention. Brother White’s followers started to rally behind him, creating hashtags and campaigns in his support, while Xu Zhe continued mocking him with further posts, keeping the drama alive.
With the situation exacerbating, it was clear that these social media battles would not be resolved easily. Tensions continued to mount as more individuals got involved, and the discourse grew increasingly ugly, overshadowing the initial claims and creating a chaotic environment where lines between truth and falsehood became blurred.
Ultimately, the conflict between fortune-telling and skepticism continued without a clear resolution, revealing the complexities of online fame and the often ruthless nature of public opinion.
What I can’t accept is how greasy he looks.”
“Whatever Professor Xu says is the truth? Are you all idiots?”
“Why would Professor Xu, who teaches at a prestigious university, bother to discredit a fortune-teller? He has status and education.”
“But didn’t a high school student previously post a back view photo showing him as tall and slim?”
In the end, “Brother White’s Random Fortune-Telling” wasn’t a celebrity account, so his age or looks weren’t crucial, but the photo’s demeanor was just too off-putting, almost screaming “I’m a fraud, I’m creepy” on his face.
This wasn’t Xu Zhe deliberately trying to deceive; the photo was genuinely purchased at a high price, and he truly believed it was Luo Yingbai’s real appearance.
He had always looked down on these “street frauds” and had been sour about the public security bureau’s official account thanking Luo Yingbai. Now that he had the photo, Professor Xu genuinely felt the opportunity had arrived and decided to do a live stream.
Xu Zhe planned to first pretend his home was haunted and use a secondary Weibo account to seek help from Brother White’s fortune-telling, then open a live stream to reveal his true face in front of netizens, thereby boosting his own popularity.
Come on, you superstitious, stupid little pitiful ones, let Professor Xu save you – Xu Zhe was feeling incredibly proud of his chuunibyou-like plan.
Luo Yingbai had no idea that somewhere in the world, someone was preparing to teach him a lesson. His attention was focused on the red text he had once again seen on Weibo.
Rui Rui Loves Bunny Bunny: @Brother Bai’s Fortune Telling Nonsense Neighbor uncle was grabbing my neck, not letting me cry, but it’s so dark here, so scary, the outside is on fire, there are so many ghost shadows swaying on the window, I want to see my mom, wuwuwu…
This was clearly a child’s tone. Luo Yingbai quickly scanned the Weibo post, and his nerves immediately tensed up – it looked like this child had been kidnapped by a neighbor.
Fortunately, the Weibo post was sent two hours later, so there was still a chance to save the situation.
The help message did not reveal the location. Luo Yingbai thought for a moment and cleverly searched for the username “Rui Rui Loves Bunny Bunny”.
After searching for a while, Luo Yingbai finally found a crucial photo of his mother’s back while cooking, with a location tag in Le Xing Community!
Le Xing Community was not far from their school, but the area was still too large.
Luo Yingbai had been there before. The community occupied a large area with chaotic buildings and mostly high-rise structures. There were several thousand households. If the little girl was indeed being held captive, they could not alert the kidnapper and could only search secretly… Two hours was almost impossible.
But he had to try, not just for the Weibo rescue station’s reward, but because it was a vibrant life.
Luo Yingbai took a screenshot and sent two WeChat messages to Xia Xianning, knowing he would understand. After sending the messages, he stuffed his phone in his pocket and rushed towards Le Xing Community.
It was around 8 PM, and the streets were congested. Luo Yingbai ran along the street, arriving at the community’s entrance drenched in sweat. He took out his compass while catching his breath.
In “Rui Rui Loves Bunny Bunny’s” message, there was an important detail about “many ghost shadows swaying on the window”. If it was a haunting, Luo Yingbai could use the yin energy to guide him to the girl’s location.
There was indeed something strange in this community. As soon as he took out the compass, the steel balls began to move erratically, hesitating between the west and north sides. Luo Yingbai injected a bit of spiritual power, and the balls finally settled, pointing north.
Luo Yingbai followed the direction indicated, with the community’s building layout resembling a maze. At every corner, the compass balls would change position. Fortunately, he had a good sense of direction.
Finally, Luo Yingbai stopped at a building entrance.
He put away the compass and softly chanted: “Red thread guide souls, go!”
A red silk thread emerged from his sleeve, beautifully weaving into the corridor and showing him the way. At the same time, his phone vibrated.
