Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities

Chapter 343 - 209: Can Ascend the Divine Altar! Establish a Brand? (Part 2)

That single, tiny strap on her top, plus the deep cleavage it revealed, was an altogether tempting sight.

If I had to use a single term, it would be: innocently seductive.

I remembered how in my other world, that innocently seductive style had even been mainstream for a time.

Chen Jincheng looked at her invitation and asked teasingly, "So forward? Are you trying to use the ’unspoken rules’ on your boss again?"

’Seriously, of all the girls, this one had the weirdest mindset. It was clearly a special transaction, yet in her mind, he—the boss—was the one being subjected to the ’unspoken rules.’’

’He still remembered what her employee file said. She got to sleep with him for free and even scored a free song. She must have been incredibly pleased with herself.’

’Her Loyalty was even higher than the other girls’, reaching 105, second only to Cen Ning—that looks-obsessed, love-struck girl—at 110.’

’She was getting addicted to using the ’unspoken rules’ on her own boss.’

When Little Maru saw the words "unspoken rules," a faint blush of shame for being found out crept onto her pretty face. She immediately replied with self-righteous indignation, "Boss, I have no idea what you’re talking about. I just said I wanted to test the song."

Chen Jincheng opened Little Maru’s employee profile:

Name: Chu Xiaowan

Loyalty: 105

Status: ’Honestly, Boss... why’d he have to expose me? I just want to sleep with him. Once I’ve slept with him and won him over, it’ll be easier to get him to be my duet partner.’

"..." Chen Jincheng seriously suspected this girl had some sort of psychological problem.

’Still, her wanting to use the ’unspoken rules’ on him... wasn’t entirely out of the question.’

’The only thing was, he had plans with Lin Hao tonight to go check out Radiant Square. The "Source of All Infamous Memes" gift pack he’d gotten before had given him three Heat Cards. He figured he could use one in the market stall area at Radiant Square and try to squeeze another five million out of Lin Hao.’

’I can go to Radiant Square first, then go ’test’ the song with Little Maru afterward.’

Just as he was about to reply, his young secretary, Ximeng, walked in carrying a small bag in one hand and a mailer in the other. She came to his desk and handed the mailer to him. "Boss, this is for you. It was sent from the National Dance Academy."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jincheng immediately took the mailer. After opening it, he saw that it indeed contained a document and a membership card for the National Dance Association.

’So it really is the certificate countless people in the dance industry dream of getting.’

He immediately took out his phone, opened WeChat, and sent a photo of it to Principal Huang. "Principal Huang, I’ve received the certificate. Thank you for your support!"

A moment later, he received a reply from Principal Huang: "Chen Tongxue, come back and visit the school when you have time!"

"Of course, Principal." After replying, Chen Jincheng opened Tiao Yin, recorded a video of his National Dance Association membership card, and uploaded it with the caption: "Don’t worry about what slanderers say. Someone will come along to prove your ability."

Since the Divination Dance incident had been so huge, this simple video from Chen Jincheng was quickly seen by many people.

At Ganjiang University’s dance department, Li Suwan had been glowing lately.

For one, she was famous now. After posting a few more dance videos recently, her followers had surpassed 2.3 million. Chen Tongxue had also given her a "Black Silk" classical dance, which she hadn’t released yet, saving it for her push to 3 million followers.

For another, it was, of course, because she had been well "nourished" by Chen Tongxue these past few days. She felt much younger now.

Returning to her office and sitting down, she could feel the envy from the other dance instructors, and she quite enjoyed it.

’This is what it means to live an exciting life.’

’She just missed Chen Tongxue a little.’

’The National Day holiday was a few days long. She really wanted to fly over and see Chen Tongxue.’

She took out her phone and saw a Tiao Yin notification that a friend had posted an update. She opened it and was surprised to see it was from Chen Tongxue. He had posted a video of a National Dance Association membership card.

She immediately commented: "Chen Tongxue, you’re amazing."

After commenting, she glanced through the comment section and was stunned to find many people tagging @Luo Xiaozhu.

It was then she remembered that the whole Divination Dance situation had been thanks to Luo Xiaozhu dissing Chen Tongxue. Luo Xiaozhu had been utterly humiliated in that incident, and she hadn’t expected everyone to still be hounding him about it now.

It also served as a reminder to her: one must always be careful with their words and actions online. The internet has a long memory.

Meanwhile, in a villa, a nervous Luo Xiaozhu was trying to explain himself to a beautiful woman. "Zhou, listen to me, it’s not what you think!"

"Get lost, you disgusting creep!" The woman was clearly furious. She gave Luo Xiaozhu a swift kick and stormed away.

Luo Xiaozhu grimaced in pain. He turned to see his girlfriend already in her car, starting the engine and driving off.

He was vexed. He had to placate his girlfriend, or he was done for. He quickly pulled out his phone, but as soon as he did, he saw tons of notifications on Tiao Yin of people tagging him.

He opened it subconsciously and saw a video—a video from someone he utterly despised.

That Chen Jincheng had gotten his membership card for the National Dance Association.

"Fuck, is this never going to end?!" Luo Xiaozhu was so angry he wanted to smash his phone. But then he remembered his girlfriend had discovered something was up and quickly tried to call her.

...

「Second-Life Star」

After posting the video, Chen Jincheng also noticed that many people were immediately tagging @Luo Xiaozhu in the comments.

’He really hadn’t intended to target Luo Xiaozhu, but unfortunately, the people who saw the video weren’t willing to let the guy off the hook.’

’Not that he was afraid of offending Luo Xiaozhu now, anyway.’

’Around this time, his girlfriend, Ms. Zhou, had probably already figured out something was wrong.’

’If Luo Xiaozhu didn’t know what was good for him, he wouldn’t mind provoking Ms. Zhou a bit to make her ’butcher the pig’ ahead of schedule.’
