My Fortune-Blessed Leading Lady
Chapter 42: Aren’t You Focusing on the Wrong Thing?

Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Aren’t You Focusing on the Wrong Thing?

Yuran’s official Weibo page froze instantly, as did her phone, which at one point went completely dark. She switched to a laptop and logged onto the messaging app to find Annan.

Yuran: "My mouth might really have been blessed."

Annan: "..."

Online, however, a storm had already erupted, with two factions fiercely arguing their points.

One side: What Bloodstained Battlefield Asura Sword said was just a coincidence, even if the two coincidences she mentioned are true, this still isn’t evidence that Lin Chen plagiarized.

The other side: I think what Bloodstained Battlefield Asura Sword said might be true. She cursed the plagiarists, claiming they would definitely become disabled within 24 hours, and then, unsurprisingly, Lin Chen became disabled—a clear evidence!

Because of this incident, the online world was in an uproar. Naturally, Lin Chen’s fans supported their idol, but as a rising celebrity, Bloodstained Battlefield Asura Sword’s popularity was skyrocketing.

The fan base was growing at a frightening rate.

In less than twenty-four hours, she had gone from zero to two hundred thousand fans, with the numbers still rising. Whether it was comments or private messages, all were requests for wishes, which Annan screenshot and showed her.

Yuran: "..."

Is this a mistake?

Go pray to gods and worship Buddhas for wishes, why come to me?

She complained to Annan, who ruthlessly mocked her, "Don’t talk about others; I also really want to make a wish to you. It might be cheaper than worshiping Buddha since offerings aren’t cheap."

Yuran expressed her speechlessness and took out her phone again, ready to edit a message to save herself. As soon as she unlocked it, however, a flood of private messages filled the screen, and she hurriedly disabled the private messaging feature.

She finally had a moment to check the three official posts on her Weibo. The first two were dissing Lin Chen, the scum, and the third responded to a lucky viewer.

Then her fans were all asking for blessings.

This was quite embarrassing. Yuran’s cheeks twitched as she typed out a bunch of words and sent them.

Bloodstained Battlefield Asura Sword: If I said this was just a coincidence, would you believe me?

Rather than pulling down Lin Chen, she now needed to keep a lower profile—she was too eager to avoid digging deeper into her identity, which could not be revealed.

...

What Yuran didn’t know was that, after watching the live stream, Xie Cheng immediately made a call to Bo Yan and asked, "Did you know your family has a fish named Koi!"

Bo Yan: "...Speak human!"

Xie Cheng pulled his hair in frustration, "Your Plague God is just a jinx. You better stay far away from her, as far away as possible, you hear? She cursed Lin Chen to become disabled..."

As soon as Xie Cheng started speaking, he couldn’t stop, explaining the whole situation from beginning to end. After finally calming down, he took a deep breath, "So, do you get it? Stay away from her!"

Bo Yan’s brow slightly furrowed; he thought of something obviously more concerning than Xie Cheng, "Don’t let anyone dig deeper, especially into her identity, information!"

Xie Cheng: "... No, Effendi Actor Bo, after all I’ve said, aren’t you focusing on the wrong thing?"

"If her identity is dug up, mine will be implicated too. Do you want to solve this now or wait until it worsens?"

Xie Cheng, looking miserable, conceded, "I understand, I always knew she was a Plague God, being involved with her means nothing good can come of it...how absurd."
