“We’re only joking and having fu talking about their relationship. Can’t Tan Jinsheng take a joke? Why is he so anxious to clarify when Li Ruhan hasn’t even said anything yet. What’s wrong with Li Ruhan that makes him look down on her so much?” Tan Jingi had already predicted what people would say
about Tan Jinsheng, “Clearly, when the time comes, the one who stands to lose will still be Jinsheng.”
Xu Mingzhen was extremely angry. “So we’re just going to let her be?”
“It’s not like I don’t know anything about these things. I’ve read about these things before,” Xu Mingzhen said, “When it comes to speculation about a couple, if both sides are more ambiguous, then there’s no confirmation. When one side is more popular, and the other side is slightly less popular, the
popular side can pull up the less popular side’s popularity. The less popular side will be the beneficiary. Moreover, if their reputation is not good, it will also ruin the reputation of the less popular one.”
“If both of them are popular, then there is no need for that. On the contrary, there is more cons than pros.” Xu Mingzhen also knew a lot about this, “But now, both Jinsheng and Li Ruhan are not considered popular. Their amount of fame is about the same. Although Li Ruhan debuted early and was
somewhat famous at the beginning, she is now no more popular than a newbie. Jinsheng is only known because of “Broken Continent. What does Li Ruhan want to do with Jinsheng?”
“Perhaps she feels that our family is a celebrity sponsor and will definitely be able to secure Jinsheng a good ranking. The program team also takes care of Jinsheng. Jinsheng has always gotten a lot of screen time. She has always been by Jinsheng’s side so she is filmed in his shots too. There were also
netizens who joined in the fun talking about them, so she had a strong presence on the internet,” Tan Mo said, “Is she still worried about not having a strong presence in the show and low popularity? It’s not without risks for her to couple bait. There are two sides to everything.”
“Either she waits for the program to end or Jinsheng is eliminated. Although she and Jinsheng aren’t a couple, her popularity has been hyped up by her actions. Perhaps she will become one of the top few people to receive the most dividends in the program,” Tan Mo said.
“Or maybe when the hype has gone too far, the netizens will become haters. After all, not all netizens like couples. There will also be netizens who will hate her for couple baiting. If second brother quickly attracts a large number of fans, they may not be happy to see him getting too close to the opposite
sex.”
Tan Mo smiled and said, “Not to mention, second brother’s face is extremely good-looking.”
Having been affirmed by Tan Mo for his good looks, Tan Jinsheng’s face was beaming.
“Second brother will definitely attract a lot of female fans,” Tan Mo said. “I’ve already seen a lot of second brother’s fans calling him their husband.”
Tan Jinsheng did not expect Tan Mo to bring this up.
He would occasionally look at the fans’ comments.
Because there were too many comments, of course, he would not be able to read all of them.
But just looking at a few of them, they were all referring to him as their husband.
He clearly already had a lot of female fans.
He was so embarrassed that he didn’t even know what to say.
He didn’t expect those comments to be seen by Tan Mo.
“Having a lot of female fans, of course, there are pros and cons. The downside is that in the future when you fall in love and marry, your fan count may drop on a large scale. Although they know that it’s impossible for them to be together with their idol, they still wouldn’t want you to fall in love and get
married.”
“This feeling… ‘m guessing, I don’t know if I’m right, but my guess is that as long as he’s single, even though they can’t be with him, they can still call him their husband without any pressure. But if he’s married and belongs to another woman alone, in the future, not only is it rude to call him their
husband, but they’ll also be a little jealous of his girlfriend or wife. How did she become such a good man’s girlfriend or even wife? If they can’t be with him, then they’d rather he stay single so that he can be their imaginary husband.”
“Of course, this is only my guess. It might not be all right, and it certainly doesn’t represent all the fans.” Tan Mo said very seriously.
“However, if second brother’s fans are mostly female fans, they definitely wouldn’t want Li Ruhan to couple bait with Jinsheng,” Tan Mo said, “This is beneficial for the current situation. The fans will definitely express their dissatisfaction with Li Ruhan. Once Li Ruhan gets tired of the negativity, she’ll
stop couple baiting.”
“So, we can only wait for the reaction of the fans?” Xu Mingzhen felt unappeased.
“We’ll think of another way. However, one thing to note is that we definitely can’t deny the relationship between him and Li Ruhan,” said Tan Jingi.
“Besides, I don’t want to use my fans,” Tan Jinsheng said, “Although these little girls take advantage of me verbally, they really like me. I’m grateful for their love, so I can’t let them do these things for me.”
Who would let their wife fight on their behalf?
Of course, he didn’t mean that he was the husband of many little girls.
However, since they really liked him, he couldn’t take advantage of those pure hearts that simply liked him.
Tan Jinsheng’s words made Tan Mo’s eyes light up even more.
This was her second brother. Such an upright and pure person was worthy of the fans’ love for him.
“Second brother, your fans are really lucky,” Tan Mo said gently with a smile.
Tan Mo, who had been holding herself back, laughed like a fool.
Wei Zhigian cleared his throat and said, “Actually, you don’t even have to mention Li Ruhan’s name. You just have to say that you’re single and that you’re currently putting your career first and have no intention of dating.”
“This way, Li Ruhan and Jinsheng’s couple bait will naturally fall apart. Moreover, even if Li Ruhan still refuses to stop couple baiting, Jinsheng can sort it out. Jinsheng can clarify and say that he just does not want to be misunderstood, and most people won’t blame him. Of course, a small number of
netizens will still have something negative to say. But as a public figure, this is unavoidable. When you appear on camera, there will be people who like you and your actions, but there will always be some people who won’t.”
“Even if you don’t mention anything about Li Ruhan,” Wei Zhigian said, “At the very least, you can make it clear that you are single and unavailable.”
“Moreover, if Li Ruhan takes the initiative to do something in front of the camera to find new ways to couple bait, it gives the speech a greater purpose. She’s a good person, but it’s precisely because of this that you can’t let her be misunderstood because of you.” Wei Zhigian said with a faint smile, “You
can say it as loud as you want. You’re a man, so it’s okay for you to endure a little more gossip. However, Li Ruhan still has to marry and fall in love, so she shouldn’t have to go through a scandal like this. As long as you act as if you’re thinking of Li Ruhan, that’s all that matters.”
