My ex-girlfriend's best friends are getting restless right after the breakup.

Chapter 101 Zhou Lingyan's Little Disguise

Li Man took a sip of red wine.

She recalled her impressions of this man over the past period of time.

She always felt that he wasn't worthy of her girlfriends fighting over him so much.

They thought he was just lucky; after being dumped by Xu Yueqing, he met Zhou Lingyan.

I think his talent is likely to be short-lived.

What now?

"The Ordinary Road" is still trending on social media.

"Learn to Meow" is a hit again.

Two songs, two styles, two types, two audiences.

But they all became popular.

What does this tell us?

This shows that this man is truly talented.

It's not a flash in the pan.

It wasn't just good luck.

Li Man put down her wine glass and sighed softly.

She suddenly remembered a sentence.

"Gold will always shine."

Chen Bo's talent was hidden too well by Xu Yueqing before.

So good that even she, an observer, thought he was just an ordinary stone.

Now he has left Xu Yueqing, entered the sea, entered the river, entered the Dragon Pool, and begun to shine.

Li Man shook her head.

Xu Yueqing, oh Xu Yueqing.

Are you a jinx to your husband?

Chen Bo worked for you for three years, living a quiet and unremarkable life.

The moment I leave you, I am like a dragon entering the ocean, radiating boundless light.

"The Ordinary Road" has become a hit.

"Learn to Meow" became a hit.

what's next?

What else could there be?

Li Man suddenly felt a sense of anticipation.

The day after "Learn to Meow" became a viral sensation, Chen Bo truly experienced what it meant to be "famous and troublesome."

On Weibo's trending topics, the hashtags #ChenBoHasOutOfTheRoad# and #ChenBoHasATeamBehindTheScenes# squeezed into the top ten, standing shoulder to shoulder with the trending topics of "Learn to Meow" and "The Ordinary Road," creating a rather surreal scene.

The incident began when a marketing account published a long article titled: "In-depth analysis: From 'The Ordinary Road' to 'Learn to Meow,' is Chen Bo a genius or an opportunist?"

The article was written in a really sarcastic and bizarre way.

The first half of the speech praised "The Ordinary Road" as having "profound lyrics and a soulful melody, making it a rare original masterpiece in recent years." The second half of the speech changed the subject, saying that "Learn to Meow" has "childish lyrics and a simple melody, and is completely a catchy song to cater to short video platforms."

The conclusion is that either Chen Bo has run out of ideas and can't write a second "Ordinary Road," so he can only make money with this kind of brainwashing song; or "Ordinary Road" wasn't written by him at all, and he has a powerful creative team behind him, and he is just a "front-end puppet."

The comments section exploded.

"Finally, someone voiced my doubts! How could a song of 'The Ordinary Road' be written by the same person as 'Learn to Meow'?"

"Exactly! Someone who can write about 'I've crossed mountains and seas' turns around and writes about 'We Learned to Meow Together'? That's such a huge difference!"

"Maybe he's just flexible and adaptable? He can write 'The Ordinary Road' (a popular Chinese novel), and he can also perform 'Learn to Meow' (a popular Chinese novel). That's a real man!"

"Are you serious, upstairs? 'Learning to Meow' doesn't deserve to be called 'Martial Arts'!"

"Why not? Look how popular this song is. Eight out of ten short videos you scroll through feature this background music. That's called commercial value, you know?"

"Anyway, I don't believe that he wrote 'The Ordinary Road'. It's strange that an unknown actor would suddenly produce a work of this caliber. There must be something fishy going on."

"+1, there must be a team involved, maybe he bought the song."

The argument in the comments section grew increasingly heated, with the flame war escalating.

A film and television base, thousands of miles away.

Zhou Lingyan was curled up on the hotel sofa, scrolling through her phone, her face growing increasingly grim.

"Are these people crazy?" she gritted her teeth. "What do you mean by 'out of touch' or 'has a team behind them'? You know nothing!"

She grew angrier and angrier, frantically tapping the screen with her finger, preparing to personally engage in a heated argument.

She stopped after typing just a few words.

and many more.

Who is she? Zhou Lingyan, a top-tier female celebrity with 30 million fans.

If she were to get involved in a public feud, wouldn't that blow up the trending topics?

If this matter blows up, it might not be a good thing for Chen Bo.

Zhou Lingyan took a deep breath and deleted the text she had typed.

Then she opened her alternate account.

Nickname: Huo Huo doesn't eat chili peppers but eats sticks.

Synopsis: I'd trade my best friend's ten years of single life for a lollipop.

Huo Huo, who doesn't eat chili peppers but eats sticks: "Those who say Chen Bo has run out of ideas, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about talent? Someone who can write 'The Ordinary Road' can't write 'Learn to Meow'? These two songs have completely different audiences, okay?"

Huo Huo, who doesn't eat chili peppers but eats sticks: "And those who say he has a team behind him, can you guys use your brains? If Chen Bo had a team, would he have remained a nobody for so many years? Would he not even have a management company?"

Huo Huo, who doesn't eat chili peppers but eats sticks: "He's a freelance musician now, not signed to any company! Many program teams, film crews, and businesses want to contact him, but they can't because he doesn't have any external cooperation channels!"

She sent more than a dozen messages in one go, becoming more and more excited as she spoke.

Someone replied to her in the comments section: "Sister, why are you so excited? Do you know Chen Bo?"

Zhou Lingyan's heart tightened, and she quickly replied, "I don't know you! I just can't stand your nonsense!"

After posting, she guiltily logged out of her alternate account and switched back to her main account.

She stared at the screen for a few seconds, then gritted her teeth.

No, the smaller size isn't powerful enough.

We need to unleash our ultimate move.

Zhou Lingyan took a deep breath and began typing.

Zhou Lingyan V: "After scrolling through the trending topics all day, I really can't help but say a few words. Chen Bo was able to write 'The Ordinary Road' and 'Learn to Meow' because of his own talent, not because of any team. He really hasn't signed with any management company; he's a freelance musician. As for his appearance on 'Singer's Battle'—that was indeed a coincidence; someone helped him. But the person who helped him definitely wasn't because he had any team behind him, but because—well, I won't say more. In short, talented people deserve to be seen."

After sending it, she stared at the screen, her heart pounding.

Did that help him?

I guess it counts?

Then she saw in the comments section, "Holy crap! Zhou Lingyan himself has joined the fray!"

"Zhou Lingyan knows Chen Bo? What's their relationship?"

"Wait, someone lent a hand—who was it?"

"Zhou Lingyan, how do you know so much? Are you that person?"

"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, what's going on with Zhou Lingyan and Chen Bo??"

Zhou Lingyan:

Haicheng, a company that specializes in online influencers.

Zhao Lulu held her phone, looking at Zhou Lingyan's Weibo post, feeling so jealous she felt like her teeth were about to fall out.

"Zhou Lingyan, you're something else," she gritted her teeth, "coming out on top of everyone to defend Chen Bo, are you about to make it official?"
