Chapter 175 - Negative Competition
Chapter 175 – Negative Competition
Some netizens rebutted the negative comments. [Hades calls Xiang Yi little sister* too, maybe they are really related.]
Immediately, a hoard of people countered.
——[Hehe, she already said in an interview that she was an only child. Where did this older brother come from?]
——[I'm questioning if Smog is even her brother now! Maybe he's just colluding with her to start a scandal!]
——[There can't be this many coincidences in this world. Do you think real life is more entertaining than TV dramas?]
The comment section became noisy as several people were unknowingly brought into the fray. Some people simply closed the stream, while others blocked the barrage.
Why was there so much bickering for a variety show?
The staff immediately reported the live comment situation to Li Jianyu.
Li Jianyu frowned. There were so many netizens, it was normal for a few haters to show up.
But it was meal time right now.
The most appealing aspect of "Two Under One Roof" over several days had been Xiang Yi's culinary endeavors.
Usually, comments during mealtimes were very peaceful and harmonious, so for a large scale dispute to happen like today…
Suddenly, Li Jianyu thought of something and opened Chen Mian's—the "Heartbeat" director's—WeChat moments.
He updated his status a few minutes ago.
[ChenMian – Muyao TV]: Muyao TV's new livestream variety show "Delicious Three Meals" has officially set sail, thank you Meijia milk, Milky Clean Laundry Detergent, and Great Sports for their endors.e.m.e.nts. Two top-tier celebrities will descend, and their identities will be revealed tomorrow at 9:00 am!
Li Jianyu gritted his teeth. He didn't expect Chen Mian to be able to start another variety show in light of what happened lately with cheating fans of their money!
And with this title, plus the number of attendees, it was obviously copying "Two Under One Roof"!
"Shameless…" Li Jianyu said fiercely. He didn't think Chen Mian could still be so vile after leaving Muyao TV!
The PR Department at Muyao TV was quite powerful. It wouldn't be completely off to assume all the bad reviews from their own stream had spawned from there.
In order to promote their own variety show, they wouldn't hesitate to bring down their competitors. This kind of vicious competition was really low!
At the dining table, nobody present knew of the feud that was happening in the comment section.
Xiang Yi didn't understand. "What's wrong? Does it not suit your taste? Do you want me to make you something else?"
She had taken into account the fact that the boys were still growing but still had to watch their figures. Hence, she'd made dishes that were high in protein but low in calories.
The most nutritious dish had been a medicated diet soup to nourish the kids, where the oil had been skimmed.
Jiang Chen gazed at her and pitifully said, "Sis, tomorrow we won't be able to eat your cooking…"
The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became sullen.
They probably won't even be able to eat a full meal, let alone Xiang Yi's cooking.
Only then did they realize how accurate the phrase Senior Shi had said earlier "losing something hurts more after you've obtained it" was.
Such wisdom; no wonder he is their senior!
A casual sentence spoken by him can be the truth of humanity!
"How about this? If you guys want to eat anything, you can message me on WeChat. I'll cook it and get the driver to bring it to you." Xiang Yi was quite patient toward the pretty boys.
"Really?!" Jiang Chen and the others could feel their eyes light up.
"Mhmm. I always keep my word."
With this, the live comments in the stream became more brutal.
——[Is she going crazy thinking about men? Spreading her net wide, I see]
——[I suggest everyone report this show! The reason? It's setting bad examples!]
——[Is the production team dead? Hurry up and set your dogs to drag this Xiang woman away! You can't let her ruin Shi Yingdi, Hades, and these poor little boys! She can go die alone to atone for her sins!]
*Translator's Note: Just like gege can be used to call a guy who is not actually your brother (Like Oppa in korean), people can call girls little sister, or "meimei" too without being related.
