Chapter 374 (1/2)
Su Li is the stable one
The tide of public opinion was still focused on everyone’s feelings of sympathy for Shi Jingnian. Not only had he suffered misfortune, he had also been forced to face Lin Shiya’s ruthless rejection. Even so, there was another group of voices that could not be ignored. It was naturally the netizens who were obsessed with messing around Su Li.
Originally, everyone else had thought that Su Li’s mysterious powers only resulted in the emergence of “ghostwriters,” this time. But like how Ah Yu’s real identity got exposed, the real author of “Bakuman” had been exposed. Everyone soon realized that they had grossly underestimated Su Li’s mysterious powers!
Some netizens could not help but lament, “Looking at Shi Jingnian and his current tragic situation, it is really hard to not acknowledge the great powers of Su, The Great Deity. If it was not for the good-hearted Ah Yu, Shi Jingnian would probably have been done for. The more you think about it, the scarier it becomes!”
When such lamentations appeared, they were immediately approved by those who had begun to gradually believe in the mysterious powers of Su, the Great Deity, Su Li. Someone agreed and said, “Other than Shi Jingnian, isn’t Lin Shiya, the author on the surface, also in a miserable state? She was obviously very popular and had an excellent reputation. She was a bestselling author who was also really popular with booksellers. She also had lots of hardcore fans, but now it’s over for her. Her hidden secrets got thrown into daylight, and her reputation is in shambles”
“I was one of those who started off as a non-believer of the powers of Su, the Great Deity. I had thought that she was just a miserable ‘Pan of This Generation.’ When she became a hot topic on the internet, I would just join in and mess around for fun. But now, looking at what Lin Shiya and Shi Jingnian have encountered, I am completely convinced of her evil powers! Su, the Great Deity, from today onwards, please make sure you protect me!”
After her cover got blown, naturally Lin Shiya received a great deal of punishment. However, the money she got from Shi Jingnian was enough for her to live a lifetime of dissipation, and with her beauty, she was probably still able to find an excellent partner. After all, men would sometimes be taken in by outer appearances. When that happens, would they even care about the woman’s morality?
Moreover, this time, Zhao Youyue’s juxtaposed behavior had undoubtedly helped her attract many of Lin Shiya’s fans. After all, she was way more beautiful than Lin Shiya, and on top of that, she was kind. Who would they idolize, if not her?
These fans were also creating an uproar, begging for Zhao Youyue to write a book. No matter what she wrote, they would definitely buy the book. That way, she would probably be able to reshape her image as a talented female author. However, in actuality, her musical talents and her achievements in the music field were already more than enough to package her as an artistic and learned young lady, who was not inferior to Lin Shiya’s image.
Even so, Zhao Youyue had always been too lazy to do such things. Posting pictures of herself was already a chore. This left many of Zhao Youyue’s fans rather thirsty. Thus, they started digging for pictures of her…
If Zhao Youyue were to post her beautiful pictures and show some style, then, would Lin Shiya even be relevant anymore?
Fans who were genuinely worried for Zhao Youyue said, “I know that Ah Yu is very close to Su, the Great Deity, but just in case, I hope that Ah Yu can stay a little further away from Su, the Great Deity, otherwise she would certainly suffer from some sort of misfortune She was pretty lucky the last time. Only her real identity was exposed. What if she gets into a car accident the next time? Is there anyone in this world who is more kind than Ah Yu? When Ah Yu chose to save Shi Jingnian, she was definitely cleaning up Su Li’s mess. I feel a wave of sympathy for Ah Yu!”
Indeed, Zhao Youyue often hung out with Su Li. Su Li loved to post pictures of the both of them having dinner together, or shopping together, to show off. Two fashionable, trendy girls, one matured and one younger, were pretty pleasing to the eye.
In a way, Su Li was also showing off her background. If Shi Jingnian only became Zhao Youyue’s underling because he had no other choice, then Su Li was one who willingly followed Zhao Youyue around as her lackey…
Through the various pictures posted by Su Li, everyone clearly knew that Ah Yu and Su Li were close to each other. Many people were puzzled. Why did Ah Yu and Su Li have such a good relationship?
Someone answered. Has everyone forgotten about Ah Yu’s voice actress identity? In recent times, mangakas and voice actors were definitely closer than before. In “Bakuman,” there was even a shonen mangaka who had expressed his determination to get a voice actress to marry him. He had also collaborated with the original author Wen Qingyu, and drew illustrations for Wen Qingyu.
Among the many industries that were involved in the making of “Bakuman,” if a representative had to be chosen from the manga industry, then the mangaka who had the privilege of collaborating with Wen Qingyu would definitely be chosen.
