Chapter 121: Chapter 121: The Embarrassment Is the Fans’ Problem, It Has Nothing to Do With You

Wei Aizhou Lun, however, looked disdainful. She assumed Shen Zhiyao had only managed to sneak into the fan group and learn a few things about her family, which was the only reason she’d dare to speak so boldly.

Thus, even after Shen Zhiyao’s warning, Wei Aizhou Lun remained stubborn. “I already said I want a reading. Are you deaf? It’s just a thousand yuan. It’s not like I can’t afford it.”

Seeing that Wei Aizhou Lun was completely unreceptive, Shen Zhiyao couldn’t be bothered to consider her family’s situation and asked her standard question, “What do you want to divine?”

Caught off guard by Shen Zhiyao’s direct question, she couldn’t think of what to ask for a moment.

So, she rushed to the fan group to ask for help. “Girls, what should I ask her to divine?”

Everyone offered different suggestions. Some said she should ask what endorsement their idol would get next, while others suggested asking where he kept his underwear.

Just then, the group admin, “Xiao Zhou de Lunzi,” posted, “I’m at Zhou Lun’s concert right now. Make her predict what song he’ll sing next! As long as she makes a prediction, it’s guaranteed to be wrong! I know Zhou Lun well. I’ll message him in a bit and have him sing a song that isn’t on the list. That way, no matter what Shen Zhiyao predicts, she’ll be wrong!”

Wei Aizhou Lun thought this was a great idea and relayed it to Shen Zhiyao. “Zhou Lun is holding a concert right now, and a member of our fan group is there. I want you to predict what song Zhou Lun will sing next.”p>

Shen Zhiyao said, “Fine. However, I don’t know who Zhou Lun is. You’ll have to show me a picture of him.”

Her words instantly enraged the viewers in the live stream:

You don’t even know who Zhou Lun is? Guess you don’t want to make it in the entertainment industry!

Trying to make it in showbiz but doesn’t know Zhou Lun? She must be faking it.

A small-time streamer doesn’t even know who Zhou Lun is? That’s so insulting! It’s practically a capital offense.

Wei Aizhou Lun was also furious. “Are you an idiot, streamer? My idol is one of the biggest stars today! His posters are plastered all over the streets. How could you possibly not know him?”

Shen Zhiyao was speechless. “I need to read his features for the divination. Just show me the photo. Enough with the nonsense!”

Wei Aizhou Lun had plenty of photos of Zhou Lun. She picked the most handsome one and shoved it in front of the camera. “This is Zhou Lun. What do you think? Isn’t my idol gorgeous?”

Shen Zhiyao’s brow furrowed. “The beauty filter is cranked up way too high on this one. Give me another.”

Wei Aizhou Lun: “…”

Wei Aizhou Lun pulled out more than thirty photos in a row. Unsurprisingly, none of them were acceptable.

Wei Aizhou Lun instantly snapped. “Are you fucking with me?! You must know you can’t make an accurate prediction, so you’re deliberately saying the photos are no good just to stall for time!”

Shen Zhiyao took a deep breath and let out a torrent of words. “This guy has a face caked in heavy makeup, enhanced with special effect lighting, completely obscuring his features. Go get his own mother and see if even she would recognize him.”

Shen Zhiyao sighed in frustration. “Find a picture from when he first debuted!”

Finally, Wei Aizhou Lun found a photo of him from a talent show back when he had just debuted. Only then could Shen Zhiyao see his real face.

“The song he’s going to sing is ’Ai Ni’.”

Just then, the admin from Zhou Lun’s fan group sent a request to join the video call.

Shen Zhiyao accepted. Soon, a female fan with the screen name “Xiao Zhou de Lunzi” appeared on screen. In the background, you could see fans cheering for Zhou Lun.

“Hello everyone, I’m a fan of Zhou Lun, and I’m at his concert right now, sitting in the front row. He just started his first song and will be singing the second one soon.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Zhou de Lunzi pointed her camera at Zhou Lun, who was in the middle of singing.

As a top fan, Xiao Zhou de Lunzi had the phone number and contact information for Zhou Lun’s assistant, which was useful for organizing fan activities.

A moment ago, Xiao Zhou de Lunzi had already spoken to Zhou Lun’s assistant, telling him to pay attention to the music equipment, make sure there were no mistakes, and definitely not to play the song ’Ai Ni’.

The assistant immediately agreed.

Now, the equipment was all set. All they had to do was wait for Zhou Lun to sing the next song and utterly humiliate Shen Zhiyao.

Before long, the intro to the next song began.

The melody was cool and powerful—nothing at all like ’Ai Ni’.

THUMP-CHAK, THUMP-CHAK—

THUMP-CHAK, THUMP-CHAK—

As the music started, Zhou Lun began to sway to the rhythm, and hordes of fans cheered for him.

The intro wasn’t ’Ai Ni’. Some fans who were also watching Shen Zhiyao’s live stream were ready to witness her downfall!

“Phew~ The intro isn’t ’Ai Ni’! Fam, the show is about to begin! All you fans in the audience, get ready to see this streamer get exposed!” The definitive beat of the music seemed to make all the fans supremely confident.

Wei Aizhou Lun rolled her eyes at Shen Zhiyao. “Some fortune-teller. You can’t even get one prediction right, yet you have the nerve to charge a thousand per reading. Do you really take your audience for fools?”

Swept up by their momentum, the viewers in the live stream grew even more aggressive, flooding the chat to demand if Shen Zhiyao would quit streaming if she was wrong.

Xiao Zhou de Lunzi snorted. “Don’t think that being infamous is the same as being famous. Let me tell you, if your reputation gets bad enough, both Douyin Live Stream and the entertainment industry will ban you!”

Shen Zhiyao didn’t say a word, just quietly watched Zhou Lun on the stage.

On stage, Zhou Lun made a gesture to Xiao Zhou de Lunzi in the crowd, losing himself in the rhythm of the music.

Zhou Lun wore a smug smirk, feeling like victory was already in his grasp. There was no way he could possibly end up singing ’Ai Ni’.

Meanwhile, Shen Zhiyao’s fans instantly realized what was happening:

Look, Zhou Lun keeps signaling to someone in the audience! This was clearly a setup!

I’ve heard about this before. The top fans have contact with Zhou Lun. They obviously cooked this up while he was singing the last song!

This is disgusting! There are always villains trying to sabotage our streamer!

Holy crap, the streamer was completely set up by them!

Just as Zhou Lun felt he’d toyed with them long enough and was about to start singing, the melody and rhythm of the music began to change.

The lyrics also started scrolling on the teleprompter from the middle of the song:

In your heart

Am I the only one

The lyrics kept scrolling, but Zhou Lun wasn’t singing. Some fans who weren’t watching Shen Zhiyao’s live stream started shouting, “Refund! Refund! Refund! Refund!”

Seeing the scene devolve into chaos, Zhou Lun panicked and, without thinking, started singing along with the track: “Oh, baby, say a few more sweet words, if you love me, look at me more, think of me a little more so we can really see…”

Meanwhile, the fans in the crowd were shouting excitedly:

AHHHH! He’s so cute! He’s actually singing ’Ai Ni’! So sweet, so sweet, so sweet!

Right, right! A soft and cute song is perfect for our soft and cute idol!

The rest of the fans began to loudly chant Zhou Lun’s support slogan: “Nongfu Spring water’s a little sweet, but not loving Zhou Lun means you’ll taste defeat!”

By the time Zhou Lun snapped out of his shock, he realized he had already finished singing the entire song, ’Ai Ni’.

Zhou Lun: “…”

Xiao Zhou de Lunzi: “…”

Wei Aizhou Lun: “…”

After freezing for a moment, Zhou Lun was about to explain that he had only sung the wrong song because he had panicked.

But just as he opened his mouth, his agent’s voice came through his earpiece. “Don’t explain! The embarrassment is the fans’ problem, it has nothing to do with you. If you try to explain now, you’ll definitely attract anti-fans! Don’t say anything, just continue the concert at your own pace!”
