As Su Li was speaking, she used her phone to surf through her Weibo, and only realized that the notification center had exploded with various types of private messages, comments, and shares, at least a few times more than usual!
Su Li personally loved being in the thick of things, rubbing hot spots and appearing in headlines on the internet. Her Weibo followers had enthusiastically trailed after her, making her movement almost considered No.1 within the manga world.
This certainly did not mean that Su Liâs manga has become invincible. It just meant that she was better at hyping her fans up, like those outspoken interactive celebrities. By doing so, her fame had thrived.
Such was Su Liâs secular mind, with a very strong heart towards her career. She loved to secure her personal gain, while being engrossed in her fame and fortune.
This new, mysterious fire gave her a panic attack. The work that was her main priority at the moment was âThe Strongest Kingâ by Rosemary, as this was her primary source of income, so she had to understand all of the plot fully. She had even consulted Rosemary for more details.
No other plot is more disastrous, compared to Xiao Yuâs. This upcoming outline certainly does not involve her. Among all of my recent updates, there have been no bad signs eitherâŚ
As a creator, Su Li had a keen sense of smell. If the author wants to make something happen, she would have known. In this case, none of her red lights had lit up. If this is a surprise death flag, readers wouldnât exactly be approving of it.
To be honest, Xiao Yuâs death was rather unexpected, as her death had not been foreshadowed from the start. On the contrary, it was Rosemary who had suddenly decided to give her a bento, during the process.
However, most readers are easy to deceive. Xiao Yuâs death had successfully earned a wave of tears, at the same time making âThe Strongest Kingâ viral, eventually solidifying its spot as an iconic series.
When Su Li realized that there were no words like âRosemary,âThe Strongest Kingâ, etc. among the comments on Weibo, she felt relieved. Then only did she notice that many readers were actually blaming her for a development concerning âChu Luoxun.â
What is h*ll is going on?
She voluntarily painted an illustration for goddess Chu, why am I being scolded instead? Did I fail to portray the essence of the goddess Chu, Chu Luoxun?
Su Li admired her exquisite illustration once more; still thinking that it was undoubtedly perfect, even finding herself almost enthralled by the charm of the goddess Chu. She could not help but felt the urge to draw an entire artbook of goddess ChuâŚ
Su Li had always thought that if a female character wants to become famous within the manga world, she must first become the model worker [1] within the realm of Doujinshi ero mangas or become a âpublic transportâ [2] within anime fanfictions. Without those, would you still dare say that female characters are famous?
Su Li had not have time to look through the latest issue of âMengya,â and that was why she was confused, unable to understand the comments under her Weibo.
âIâve already seen it through! Everything is the cheater, Su Liâs fault. If she had not drawn an illustration of goddess Chu, goddess Chu would have to suffer such a terrible fate!â
âSu Li really is the grim reaper of the manga world. Whoever who gets drawn by her gets their world turned upsidedown, as long as itâs a widely known female character. For example, the Tri-No elite scholar, Xu Jing who is obsessed with learning, and the tsundere, poison-tongued Lolita with blonde twintails, Yu Shengfan the gaming genius. Now, itâs finally the Genki [3] music goddess, Chu Luoxunâs turn. I have a feeling that Chu Luoxun would probably be damned.â
âOld sly Su Li, please keep your all-mighty capabilities away! Goddess Chu was all fine, and once you drew her, she became ill. This is supposed to be old sly Su Liâs fault no matter which perspective you take, rightâŚ?â
âAt first, I thought that it was the Master Leng Zi who was cheating the readers on purpose. Now only did I realize, it was actually you behind the scene, Su Li!â
âSeeing that everyone has managed to find the real criminal, I feel relieved right away. This cheater, Su Li already has numerous convictions in the past, she is certainly involved this time! She is the source of all evil!â
âTo be honest, Master Su Li shouldnât be blamed for this, right? She has carried the pan again no matter from which perspective you takeâŚHuh? This word âagain,â suddenly appeared by itself!â
âCongratulations to Master Su Li for receiving the title ââ âThe Pan of This Generationâ!â
âItâs not âThe Pan of This Generation,â it is clearly âThe Killer of Goddesses.â I doubt that there really is a source of mysterious power from the East.â
âŚ
Although Su Li did not read the newest issue of âBeautiful April,â she was able to figure something out from these comments. It looks like the one causing trouble was not Rosemary. It was Leng Zi!
Su Li had felt no need to keep up with such a youthful novel on an issue-by-issue basis. She had intended to wait till it is finished, before binge-reading it in one breath. Current circumstances had forced her to start reading it. If not, she would not even know how to defend herself.
She sent her own assistant to purchase the latest issue of âMengya.â Then, warily, she finished the content in one breath.
Her face went slightly white; her eyes turned slightly red. She knew, if she had not kept her guard up, she might have cried uncontrollably by now!
It was really too heart aching, especially at the last scene of the latest issueâŚ
Know this, Su Li is also among the Chu Luoxun fanbase. If not, why did she not draw illustrations of the others?
At that moment, Su Li had been heavily cheated by Master Leng Zi. No, it should be sly old Leng Zi. This is why there are so many authors with hipster-itis in this world!
Why canât they just write books properly? I suppose that you abused Chu Luoxun to such an extent, just because you have problem with money?
For a while, Su Li felt that ethical authors like herself were a dying race. Those people, every single one of them wanted to become the readersâ dads. She is the only one who truly considered the feelings of the readers!
Thus, Su Li immediately contacted Zhao Youyue via direct message on Wechat and asked her comfortingly, âMy lady, have you read the latest issue of âBeautiful Aprilâ?
Zhao Youyue replied, âYup, itâs well-written! It will be so good if I can see the moment where Chu Luoxun crying in despair in picture form. That will be such a profound moment!â
Su Li spoke within her heart, âSo scary, is your heart made of iron, Lady Zhao? How could you face the matter of goddess Chu being abused so calmly?
She replied her bluntly, âMy lady; if you want to see such a thing, Iâll draw another illustration of that scene. I also think that this is quite memorable. After all, itâs the very first time ever for goddess Chu to be seen in such a stateâŚâ
Wechat money transfer ââ 5,000 RMB.
âKeep it up, Sis. Li! This is some encouragement for you, I believe that you will do a great jobâ Zhao Youyue replied after she transferred the money. She was grabbing every opportunity, trying her best to deepen the readersâ impression towards âChu Luoxun,â â the deeper, the better! Having a soulful artist like Su Li at my beck and call, isnât it such pity to not use her?
As Su Li replied her shamelessly, she accepted the money transfer. Soon after, she assured her patron that 3 days was enough for her, because this scene had certainly stimulated her inspiration!
But on Weibo, she screamed once againââ
To all the âBeautiful Aprilâ fans, I want to tell you the truth!
I am just an innocent, passing fan of goddess Chu, and I was merely drawing an illustration of her, without asking for anything in return, increasing her fame at no cost whatsoever. So, she suffered from such a disaster, but what does this have to do with me?
All of you should go and find that Leng Zi who is hiding her head, exposing nothing but her tail!
If you guys still think Iâm the culprit, then donât blame me!
I, Su Li, have no need to explain myself to anyone!
Itâs not my fault!
