Chapter 17: 16. "Happy Together" airs
```
The popularity of top-tier celebrities can absolutely be described as top-notch.
As articles on public accounts were released one after another, news of Mu Ziwei being outshone by a newcomer quickly climbed the trending searches.
Inevitably, after reading the content of those public accounts, everyone turned their attention to this episode of "Happy Together."
[In this day and age, someone dares to outshine Mu Ziwei? That newcomer is quite bold!]
[Little girl, got some skills huh?]
[Sisters, let's group up to watch TV, to see this drama queen of a newbie, see what kind of game she can play!]
Thus, a large wave of Internet users who usually don't watch TV crawled over along the Web.
Even many viewers without a TV in front of them hurriedly opened the video apps on their phones, directly entering the program viewing phase.
And at this time, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening.
At Imperial Capital TV Station, the music sounded on the stage of "Happy Together," and the next moment, the three hosts made their entrance together.
"Dear viewers, welcome to 'Happy Together'!"
With the opening dance concluded, the guests Zhang Yilin, Sun Zhi, and Kong Yuanyuan appeared, and the unanimous cheers from the audience welcomed their respective idols.
Bullet chats on the video app flew wildly.
[Look! This guy is my husband, let me introduce him to everyone.]
[The person in front, are you the devil? The handsome guy is a shared resource, you can't say that!]
[Ahhh~~ Yuanyuan, goddess, you're so beautiful, I AI your beauty!]
On the TV, following Pan Yang's line, "This beautiful lady, tell the audience loudly what your name is!"
Tang Shu, dressed in casual attire, entered everyone's view, her tall stature making even the high-heeled Kong Yuanyuan look shorter by comparison.
Even standing at the very edge, she was still the most eye-catching presence.
"Hello everyone, my name is Tang Shu."
Her tone was cool and calm, completely different from that of Lin Yiyi in the TV series, who spoke softly and sweetly.
Yet, unbelievably, they were the same person.
The bullet chats suddenly went quiet, with no sound for a long while.
Just then, a conspicuous bullet chat slid from right to left.
[Eh? What's going on, why did my bullet chat automatically turn off?]
Following this bullet chat's slow drift, the other netizens quickly came back to their senses.
[Crap, this miss is actually Lin Yiyi, can you believe it?!]
[Sorry I'm late. I had edited a whole bunch of insults about her just now, but after seeing her in person, I actually spent a whole ten-plus seconds deleting them!]
[I inexplicably feel Tang Shu is pretty cool, am I a bit off?]
[To the one before, it's not just you, I'm off as well! This beauty, this aura, stands out from the crowd, I say!]
[To be fair, Tang Shu's looks can really make a hit.]
[Done talking, screenshot and drool over it first. As for all those grudges, what's that to do with me?]
They change in an instant, that's what these miraculous netizens are.
The TV program continued to air, and soon it was time for the "You Act, I Guess" game segment.
At this time, the fans of "Love Tornado" expressed their anticipation through bullet chats, eager to see their favorite CP (character pair) together again, definitely a treat.
[Sun Zhi and Yuanyuan, I've loved this pair to bits!]
[Together again! I ship this CP, here's a toast to them!]
```
[Hey, that's not right! Even if the couple of Sun Zhi and Yuanyuan is fine, what about our Yilin? Is he going to end up with that white lotus Lin Yiyi???]
[No no no, I can't hear this, I won't allow it, I won't allow it!]
A stream of [I won't allow it] floated across the screen, indicating just how popular the TV series was.
Even though Tang Shu's impression on everyone had changed a bit when she appeared, she was still the annoying white lotus character in the drama, how could she end up with the male lead?
The fans of the TV series were the first to refuse!
However, even though the netizens disapproved, the final pairings were already set in stone, with Sun Zhi paired with Kong Yuanyuan, and because of Mu Ziwei's absence, Zhang Yilin inevitably ended up with Tang Shu.
[Can I abandon this variety show now?]
[It's over, "Happy Together" won't be appealing anymore, I don't want to watch it ever again——]
[So, he bowed to capital in the end. How powerful must Tang Shu's background be?]
[What's all the fuss about, guys? The Program Team must have had their reasons for this arrangement. The sister's got such high beauty standards, who wouldn't she match with?]
[Just watch the show, what's with all the dissing?]
In the program, the camera switched to a scene where Zhang Yilin leaned in to whisper in Tang Shu's ear, and since his microphone was off, the netizens couldn't hear anything.
But the post-production team was mischievous and directly captioned next to his ear, circling his head:
"I'm not very good at drawing, how about you draw first and I guess?"
Tang Shu said, "Okay."
Zhang Yilin's fans were instantly entertained by their idol's humor and burst into laughter.
[Oh my goodness, are you really exposing your weaknesses like that? Does your agent know?]
[That's my Xiao Linzi, such honesty.... why do I feel like I'm looking at a young master from a landlord's family who's been hit with silly?]
[hhhhh~~~ When it comes to being a good person, you're blessed without even holding onto the wall!]
The first pair to perform, Sun Zhi and Kong Yuanyuan, were simply divine assistance, both in and out of the drama, with perfect chemistry.
The audience in front of the video enjoyed it immensely, and there were constant exclamations, urging them to get together right there and then.
When it came to Tang Shu and her partner's turn, the barrage of comments visibly slowed down.
Clearly, even the netizens didn't have high hopes for this new pair.
However...
The smack in the face often comes unexpectedly, and when Tang Shu's simply sketched yet evocative drawing appeared on the big screen, even the fans of the TV drama were silenced.
[...WTF? Am I actually smacked in the face by this drawing?]
[Wait, was that collagen-filled face Tang Shu? What kind of otherworldly beauty is this!]
[To the person in front, I've already screenshotted it, I won't share it with you, come hit me if you dare——]
[Those who've screenshotted, must've been single from birth for many years to have such skills, right? Hand over the picture, and I'll set you up with someone!]
[Isn't this drawing fabulous? It would be a shame not to guess it correctly with such drawing skills!]
[As an art student, I can responsibly tell everyone that this drawing is very professional, both the lines and the layout are absolutely stunning.]
[What's up with the white lotus? Is she cheating or what?]
[Did she really draw this? I can hardly believe it!]
Following Zhang Yilin's inspired guess of "Playing the Lute to an Ox," the two, as if assisted by divine power, firmly showed the netizens what it meant to cheat.
[emmmmm, judging by their speed, they're almost guaranteed to win.]
[I initially thought the pair of Sun Zhi and Kong Yuanyuan was great, but there is always someone better; this saying couldn't be more true.]
