Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities

Moreover, Tian Xiwei, the Sweet Sister, was also trending because of last night’s live stream.

But the headline was, "The Girl Chen Jincheng Fell for at First Sight Has Appeared!"

This topic even ranked sixth on the trending list.

Stunned, Chen Jincheng clicked on it and saw a viral video. It opened with a shot of the Sweet Sister, Tian Xiwei—the footage from his live stream of her entering the bar.

It was a video edited by an incident blogger named Ah Liang. The blogger’s voiceover began immediately: "Last night, during a live stream at his own bar, Chen Jincheng met an exceptionally beautiful girl."

"Chen Jincheng seemed to be captivated by this girl the moment he saw her. He even pretended to be an employee to hit on her, taking the opportunity to ask if she thought he was handsome and if she liked him."

"If it were just that, everyone would probably think I’m talking nonsense. After all, there have been so many of Miss Chengs; this might seem like Chen Jincheng’s standard procedure."

"However, in order to sign this girl, Chen Jincheng is actually planning to establish a film department. This proves everything. It’s an absolute first—none of the previous Miss Chengs ever received this kind of treatment."

"The key is that establishing a film department isn’t simple. It even comes at a significant cost. The fact that Chen Jincheng is willing to do this shows that this girl is special to him, or that he genuinely likes her."

"If you all still think I’m making this up, just watch Chen Jincheng’s next moves. He’s definitely going to make a big move in the film industry for this girl. Let this video be the proof."

Chen Jincheng had to admire this Ah Liang. He delivered his bullshit so earnestly that Chen Jincheng couldn’t help but give him a "like."

He put down his phone. Lin Leqing looked at him with a pout. "Senior Brother, is what the video says true? Do you like that Tian Xiwei from last night?"

Seeing her expression, Chen Jincheng said speechlessly, "He’s just talking nonsense. I’ve said I don’t get involved with people I work with. How could I fall for everyone I sign?"

"You, not get involved with people you work with? Who’d believe that!" Lin Leqing muttered. But since her Senior Brother denied it, she was satisfied with his answer.

After dealing with Lin Leqing, Chen Jincheng got up to wash up. He suddenly noticed his phone was flooded with WeChat messages.

Jiang Xiaobai, Yinyin, Cen Ning, Ximeng...

They had all sent him the same video—Ah Liang’s—along with inquisitive question marks.

Chen Jincheng was speechless. ’It’s just some guy spouting nonsense, why is everyone getting so jealous?’

He sent a group reply, "It’s nothing," to placate them, and then ignored the matter.

Meanwhile, Tian Xiwei also woke up in a daze. Just as she had expected, she’d had trouble sleeping, tossing and turning all night because of what happened.

Last night’s experience was truly a bit incredible. She’d run into Chen Jincheng during his live stream, and he even wanted to sign her.

Just as she was thinking about it, a series of urgent knocks sounded at the door. She opened it, and several of her girlfriends rushed in eagerly.

"Weili, you’re about to blow up!"

"You’re on the Tiao Yin trending list!"

"I’m so jealous! Chen Jincheng fell for you at first sight!"

??? Tian Xiwei was clearly stunned. She wasn’t entirely surprised about being on the trending list; after all, she had appeared on Chen Jincheng’s live stream with so many people watching.

’But what was this nonsense about Chen Jincheng falling for her at first sight?’

One of her friends had already opened the Tiao Yin trending list and clicked on a video—it was Ah Liang’s.

Tian Xiwei immediately heard the part about how establishing a film department wasn’t easy, that it came at a price, and that Chen Jincheng was willing to create one for her.

This inexplicably made her recall Chen Jincheng’s promise to her when he was trying to sign her—that he would build a film department just for her.

And also the scene of him pulling her by the hand as they ran out of the bar.

’That did seem a bit like a scene from a movie.’

’In a lot of movies, isn’t that exactly how the male lead pulls the female lead out of a crowd?’

’A scene like that would even get a super romantic close-up!’

As she thought about it, she noticed her heart had started to beat a little faster. ’What am I thinking...’

One friend said enviously, "See, Weili? It’s true, right? Yesterday Chen Jincheng did ask if you liked him, but I answered for you."

Another friend beside her nodded. "Ah Liang got a lot right. Chen Jincheng was being so obvious. There was a whole table of us girls, so why was he so different with you, Weili?"

Hearing this, Tian Xiwei felt increasingly embarrassed and quickly said, "This Ah Liang is just making things up. Most of these bloggers just spout nonsense. You guys actually believe him?"

The moment she finished speaking, another friend suddenly gasped. "Ah Liang just posted more proof! Weili, quick, look at the comments!"

??? Tian Xiwei subconsciously opened the video’s comment section.

’How could there be more proof?’

When she saw a pinned comment at the top of the section, she froze.

It was a comment posted by Ah Liang himself. Above it was a screenshot of a system notification: "Chen Jincheng liked your video ’The Girl Chen Jincheng Fell for at First Sight Has Appeared!’"

Ah Liang: "Screenshot as proof. Chen Jincheng liked it. This is his way of confessing to the girl. If you don’t believe me, just wait. Like I said, Chen Jincheng is definitely going to make a big move with the film department for this Tian Xiwei."

... Seeing Ah Liang’s screenshot and his comment, Tian Xiwei’s jaw dropped.

’Could... could this actually be true?’

"Weili, see?" the friend who spoke first said immediately. "If you still don’t believe it, then just wait and see if Chen Jincheng makes a big move in the film industry for you."

... Tian Xiwei didn’t think she was that charming.

’But even so,’ she couldn’t help but wonder, ’what if he really does it?’

Then she was afraid she would Fall.

’After all, a man that handsome, talented, successful, and famous... if he was willing to do all that for her, she really wouldn’t be able to resist his charm.’

"But what if?" Sure enough, one of her friends asked the same question.

"That’s impossible." In the end, Tian Xiwei just shook her head, refusing to believe such a thing could happen.
