After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety
Chapter 693 - 683: Dazzling the Comment Section

Chapter 693: Chapter 683: Dazzling the Comment Section

Putting down her phone, Jiang Lingxi glanced toward the driver’s seat in front, her gaze somewhat wandering.

She cleared her throat and decided to explain proactively, "Yunqing, the photo I took of you just accidentally got posted on my Moments."

"I was initially going to delete it, but I just had a look, and a lot of people have already liked and commented on it, so I thought I might as well leave it up."

After she finished speaking, she waited a few more seconds before hearing a response from the front, "It’s fine."

No wonder the phone in his pocket had been buzzing several times since earlier. He had planned to check the messages during the red light, but now he didn’t need to.

They were probably all from people who saw the photo in his Moments.

Next to him, Xu Ling’an listened, silently took out his phone, opened WeChat Moments, found the photo his sister had just posted, and gave it a like.

Locking his phone and looking up, he met his sister’s smiling gaze.

"The photo you took of brother-in-law is perfect, not just the angle but the composition is natural too, you’ve got talent!"

Jiang Lingxi patted his head, "You know how to compliment."

A few minutes later, Tong Yue sent another message.

[You guys must have taken more than just this photo while going out, right? Did you take any of yourself? Your account has been dormant for so long!!!]

Jiang Lingxi rubbed her nose as she looked at the three exclamation points at the end of the message.

[Yes.]

Before Tong Yue could reply, she started typing on her own.

[I’ll post it right now.]

Before Tong Yue could even ask for the photo to let Lu Zhengzheng help edit and beautify it before posting, her phone already received a notification.

’The Jiang Lingxi V account you follow just posted a new update. Go check it out!’

Tong Yue: "..."

What speed, it’s really fast.

It seems her hands have recovered quite well, otherwise, she couldn’t type that fast.

With that thought, she already tapped onto the update.

Jiang Lingxi V: The early plum blossoms in the mountains have bloomed. [Image 1][Image 2]

She even wrote a sentence, though it was only six characters with a punctuation mark.

And there were two pictures attached. She thought this girl would stubbornly stick to posting just one, as always.

Progress, evident progress.

Upon refreshing, the number of likes under this new update already surpassed ten thousand, and the comments spiked to nearly a thousand.

Keep in mind, it had only been less than three minutes since the update was posted.

The popularity is evident.

After the international fashion ceremony, when Jiang Lingxi did the finale walk wearing a Dragon Robe at Casuo’s grand retirement show, her follower count started skyrocketing.

Though growth slowed down afterward, she still saw obvious daily increases.

Now it had already surpassed ten million, with a significant increase in international fans.

In contrast, her account had not seen any new updates for a while.

Back then, Jiang Lingxi’s hand was injured, and she couldn’t bring herself to push her.

Only now did she truly feel the heat of her artist being at a peak of popularity.

Tong Yue pressed down her excitement and clicked on the comments.

[Oh my God, all my waiting finally paid off. The missing person is back!]

[She did the show while everyone online was watching and then disappeared into thin air. Who would’ve thought? I just want to say, Jiang Lingxi, you are something else; anyone disagree?]

[No disagreements. I was starting to think she was going to retire if she didn’t show up soon.]

[I just want to say that elder sister is too capricious. Disappearing before the public for so long, doesn’t her company and agent care at all?]

Precisely coming across this comment, Tong Yue was speechless: "..."

As if she didn’t want to?

The point is, she can’t manage her even if she wants to, and she doesn’t dare to either!

[Was this photo taken in the Imperial City? Judging by the light, it seems it was taken not long ago. Climbing mountains in winter, you sure have the energy.]

[Having the energy to climb mountains but no time to post more updates? Fans like me are getting tired of sister’s sporadic updates.]

[I already accepted reality a long time ago. Be content, at least this update came before the year’s end, showing she hasn’t forgotten us. Comforting.JPG]

[I’m climbing a mountain too, anyone personally recognizes which mountain around the Imperial City this is from the background? Would love a chance encounter!]

[Can’t tell which mountain it is from the background. From the photographer’s angle, it seems they were more focused on Sister Lingxi’s stunning beauty. Good luck, wishing all the climbing fans good luck, Amen!]

[Look who I just discovered liked Jiang Lingxi’s post, [screenshot], Aibosi Vini, Aibosi Hemier, Aibosi Koli... Has she caught the entire Aibosi family in one net? Is this for real?]

[I just curiously went to check, these accounts don’t look fake. Fake accounts can’t appear this genuine. Also, I noticed one thing, they all followed Jiang Lingxi. Here’s the kicker, Jiang Lingxi hasn’t followed back a single one of them! Can you believe it?]

Wei Minmin: [Definitely can believe it, with Sister Lingxi, nothing seems strange. She even dares to post unedited photos!]

A string of hahas followed underneath this comment.

Tong Yue: "..."

She wanted to laugh along and say haha too but barely held back.

Wei Minmin’s post wasn’t finished, [Sister Lingxi, do you have any engagements left before the year’s end? If not busy, let’s gather? She has time to climb mountains, should have time for a meal together, right?]

[Pushing this up for Sister!]

Jiang Lingxi actually saw it.

Under Wei Minmin’s comment, she seriously replied: [I have two advertisements left to shoot presently. You should also attend the promotion for the new drama, right? After that’s done, we can have a meal together.]

Tong Yue couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of her eye while reading this.

This reply was, indeed, straightforward enough.

True enough, even before Wei Minmin could reply, other netizens’ questions rushed in first.

[Finally seeing the person herself in the comments, can you slightly reveal what the ads are about? Is it something I can buy to support?]

Jiang Lingxi: [Once the ads are shot and the brands release them, you’ll know. No need to buy them just to support me; purchase as necessary. Don’t waste money.]

A bunch of netizens: "..."

Do the brands hiring you to advertise know you’re giving such advice?

Tong Yue pinched the bridge of her nose, quit the page, and directly messaged Jiang Lingxi: [That’s enough, dear, stop showing off in your comment section!]

Though contracts with the brand partners were signed, they didn’t expect her to conduct herself this way.

Brands seek celebrity endorsements mainly to drive product sales. She’s genuinely afraid of the brands seeing what their new ambassador has commented.

Really, stop it!

With reluctance, Jiang Lingxi turned off the comments. After a moment of thought, she opened the fan list, now in four figures with a ’ten thousand’ suffix, and located the Aibosi group of names with Chinese prefixes, one by one clicking to follow back.

Aibosi Vini, receiving the follow-back notification at the manor: "..."

How to say, in some sense, Miss Jiang is indeed quite doting to her fans.

Didn’t she follow back as soon as she saw the reminder from the netizens?

But the next second, she received a message from Jiang Lingxi: [Hemier isn’t busy now? How come he has time to like my update, such quick action!]

Whether her brother was still busy, she wasn’t sure, but seeing Miss Jiang responding to netizens and sending her a message afterward, it seems the recovery of her hands is indeed real.

As to why it’s evident at a glance that it was Miss Jiang replying and not Mr. Shen assisting, perhaps it’s because her style of words is easily recognizable as Miss Jiang herself!
