Just after 9 a.m., Jiang Yiniing shared and commented on Tang Li’s Weibo seeking company for her insomnia in the early hours: "Misery loves company, too bad I’m not at Lishan. [laugh cry emoji]"
In no time, many netizens replied under Tang Li’s original post to Jiang Yiniing.
[Haha King]: "I smell an affair."
[lucis鲁]: "Being at Lishan is useless, she’s asking for a boyfriend, not you. [doge emoji]"
Taking Yu Sui’s cellphone, Tang Li saw that [Jiang Yiniing V] had already replied to [lucis鲁]: "Alright then, if Ah Li’s boyfriend shows up, I’ll graciously step aside. [cute emoji]"
Subsequently, more and more netizens commented on [Jiang Yiniing V].
Jiang Yiniing’s replies exceeded ten.
As the comments progressed, the focus shifted to Jiang Yiniing.
"For the first time encountering a celeb chatting nonsense with netizens, don’t you have filming today? [facepalm emoji]"
Jiang Yiniing quickly replied: "Yeah, I am filming ’Legend of the Koi,’ but it’s two night scenes, so right now, I’m squatting in a corner looking for a signal."
[Bread Dan]: "Are all the new actresses this down to earth? I’ve found another awesome sis to stan, already followed her by hand. [picture emoji]"
[blue mood]: "Already searched ’Legend of the Koi,’ it’s a work of Zhang Xi and the director, and the sis is awesome, bagging the role of the second female lead straight from debut!"
Yu Sui, seeing Jiang Yiniing’s uninhibited interaction with netizens on Tang Li’s Weibo homepage, was so angry she almost flipped: "Absolutely shameless! She’s clearly trying to attract your fans, making netizens think you are good friends, and in turn support her."
Immediately after, Yu Sui added: "Delete her comments right away."
"I’m afraid that won’t work." Tang Li handed the cellphone back to Yu Sui.
Thinking about Jiang Yiniing repeatedly taking advantage of Tang Li’s popularity, Yu Sui was not pleased: "Without your consent, she hijacks the spotlight in your Weibo comments, even hinting to netizens that you guys are besties. Eating crap would feel better than this!"
Tang Li explained: "If I delete the comments, the netizens will just think I’m petty. The same goes for denying her as my best friend. And considering the persona of Mrs. Bao, if I show any hostility towards her, subconsciously for netizens, I’ll be the overbearing one."
"Are we just supposed to condone her pushing you around ?"
Right now, Jiang Yiniing’s actions were tantamount to using Tang Li for hype.
And that too, without the consent of the person herself.
"Actually, there is a way." Tang Li said and took out her own cellphone.
She made a call to Wu Xuehan.
At 11 a.m., Tang Li posted two pictures on her Weibo.
One was a dormitory photo where a girl, wearing headphones, squatted on a chair, snacking while watching R-rated anime with a mysteriously creepy look; next to the chair was a trash bin overflowing with garbage.
As for the other photo, a girl dressed as a maid lay back on a bench snoozing, mouth slightly open, with her white legs visible beneath the hem of her skirt.
[Tang Li V]: "Heard someone specifically downloaded my BL smut, truly, I’m not that petty. [picture emoji][picture emoji]" Read full story at noveⅼfire.net
Keen-eyed netizens recognized the background in the first photo, if not mistaken, is where Tang Li lives at school.
That photo captured nearly the entire dormitory scene.
"There are only three beds, the girl on the top bunk clearly isn’t Jiang Yiniing, the bottom bunk is that girl watching sleazy cartoons, Tang Li sleeps in a single bed, so here comes the question, where does good friend, good roommate Jiang Yiniing sleep? Hung on the wall?"
