Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Overestimating Oneself

Tang Li, facing the journalists present, gave a slight smile: "Indeed, it was me. I have to thank Teacher Guan for giving me that opportunity. It was my first time shooting a music video, and there were deficiencies. I hope everyone can be understanding."

Her humble yet confident demeanor won quite a few favorable impressions from the media.

"Tang Li is an actress in our ’Original Sin’ cast and a newcomer to the industry. Please don’t bully her," Guan Xiao timely stepped forward, took the microphone, and joked to defuse the "siege" on Tang Li by the journalists: "When ’Original Sin’ airs next year, we hope to have everyone’s support."

"Guan Xiao, you and Tang Li have been trending on Vibo all day today, did you know?"

The clicking sounds of cameras didn’t drown out the journalist’s question.

Holding the microphone, Guan Xiao replied, "Even if I hadn’t noticed, with you mentioning it, I’ll have to check online on my cellphone backstage. As long as there isn’t anything saying our kids are already helping in the kitchen, I’m fine with it."

This comment made all the journalists at the scene laugh,

This humorous self-deprecation by Guan Xiao also subtly denied the rumors between him and Tang Li. Since the two interacted normally, and the journalists couldn’t capture any flirtatious glances or details, no more tricky questions were raised.

Asked about Yang Ning’s absence, Guan Xiao simply stated, "Last night we were shooting a night scene, and Yang Ning mentioned feeling unwell, probably having a cold and fever. It’s getting colder lately, everyone really should take care to stay warm."

After finishing, Guan Xiao handed the microphone back to the host.

His action signified the end of the Q&A session with the journalists.

Tang Li had quietly stayed by the side, not hogging the limelight or acting coy. When Guan Xiao turned and stretched out his hand, indicating she should join him, Tang Li immediately followed suit.

Marketing accounts quickly turned this scene into a GIF and posted it on Vibo.

[A powerhouse TV King and a rookie actress... enough for me to fantasize a 100,000-word romance novel that bombards the hearts of young girls! The last spoonful of dog food for the year, I’m having it, you do you!]

In less than 20 minutes, this Vibo post exploded with comments.

[Hathaway Not Home]: "They look together, are they actually dating?"

[Window Side Freshness]: "Taking away my dear Xiao, just a senior leading a junior, all this hyping, let’s not. [Bye]"

[Plum Cooking Wine]: "Haha, ’Original Sin’s production team is cunning as hell, letting a newcomer walk the red carpet with Guan Xiao in place of the main actress, promoting someone with connections is one thing, but don’t bully Yang Ning like that!"

[Tina Little Deep Well]: "Yang Ning couldn’t attend due to illness, and the production team finding someone else as a substitute is perfectly fine."

[From Paida Planet]: "Nowadays, marketing accounts jump at any chance, the parties involved said they’re just collaborating, still forcing a CP for some traffic, they’re increasingly shameless."

[Bun Sister]: "But the little sister is really pretty, cold yet approachable, with distinct facial features, looking forward to the drama’s Ying Xuaner, I think I’m about to turn... [Lewd]"

Yang Ning saw this trending Vibo post while sitting in her living room.

Online, all the praise was for Tang Li and Guan Xiao matching well, apart from her fans, few people cared whether she showed up tonight or not.

This outcome was different from what she initially thought.

Yang Ning stared at the GIF of Guan Xiao pulling Tang Li’s hand as they entered, unable to suppress the irritation in her heart, and impulsively threw the tablet onto the couch.

"I told you not to cancel tonight’s awards ceremony." Chen Guangxi picked up the tablet, looked at the news, then sighed at Yang Ning: "Now, instead of benefiting you, it just highlights her, and might even offend Jiahua Film and Television."
