Teleportations — I Wanna Be An Online Celebrity

All of a sudden, trolls on the Internet started mounting attacks on Li Xianxian. Staring at the blogger’s ID, “Childe Chu”, Tang Xia associated him with Chu Tiankuo at once, who looked bitchy but always favored her.

Tang Xia gazed at the ID and was absorbed totally, reminiscing the two live shows which she had attended with Chu Tiankuo.

Chu Tiankuo was so real that Tang Xia felt he was not just a system. She was stuck in illusions for several times that Chu Tiankuo was a man in reality, though she was clear and was objected by herself.

Tang Xia came to her senses and lied feebly in the chair, in a trance. She dared not close her eyes because all she could see once she closed her eyes was Chu Tiankuo. She originally thought the man with the ID “Childe Chu” was Chu Tiankuo, but apparently, she was reluctant to think this way herself.

“Chu Tiankuo is not a man. He is a system, a bug. Anyway, he is anything but human!”

Tang Xia looked up at the ceiling and kept silent, though she kept mouthing the words “Chu Tiankuo”.

If Tang Xia took up the live show for Ye Yifan, then she stayed here largely because of Chu Tiankuo.

She suddenly found herself ridiculous. “Why do I always hold fantasy about unreal things?”

“He is not a human. The chance to meet with him can be negligible. What if programmers have fixed that bug till her next live show?”

“What if Chu Tiankuo was appointed to another broadcast room?” How Tang Xia wished that she could prevent herself from making assumptions like this since the more she assumed, the bitterer she felt, and the more disappointment she got.

“Why am I so fond of fantasies?” Tang Xia said to herself, her eyes fixed on the ceiling, which was taken by her as the target of her tirade and given the vent to.

At this moment, Tang Xia wasn’t as naughty as usual anymore. She was quiet as a piece of paper. As a girl, she had gone through desperation as well as verbal attacks on the Internet, which was never expected by even herself.

She felt as peaceful as how doughty others believed her to be. She was pouring out all her feelings to herself, or something else.

“… Why was my life so bumpy but sometimes I feel it smooth? It’s so ridiculous for me to have been like that for a handsome man and now for a man that does not ever exist. Who am I? Why must I stay here?”

Tang Xia said feebly, disappointment could be heard through her voice.

“But I’m so eager to see Chu Tiankuo again. Why would he leave that way? Why there are so many things related to him now that he doesn’t exist? Even a man who clarified for me was like him so much just because of an ID. Are you silly, Tang Xia?”

Tang Xia didn’t notice that tears had filled her eyes. She tried to control herself and kept rolling her eyes up. She didn’t want to let her tears fall down.

She didn’t want to shed tears for a system. But she was too miserable to hold back her tears. She was quiet now, even if she was crying. She felt wronged but she never stopped scolding herself.

It was a long time before Tang Xia stood up when the computer had cooled down and tears on Tang Xia’s face dried up.

She couldn’t remember how many times she had shed tears since she came to the time-travel broadcast room, except that she felt extremely sorrowful each time she cried and shed tears from the bottom of her heart.

Tang Xia took up her cup and was to fetch some water to add some water. She was on her way to the water dispenser when the doorbell rang. “Ding-dong…” Tang Xia somewhat puzzled. “Who would it be?”

She put down the cup and took a look through the peep-hole but only saw his neck and his Adam’s apple instead of his face since the man was too tall. The man outside the door started talking when Tang Xia hesitated if she should open the door.

“Tang Xia, isn’t it convenient for you to open the door?”

Tang Xia couldn’t be more familiar with the voice since it was for him that she entered the time-travel company. Tang Xia opened the door without hesitation and saw the sunshine boy, Ye Yifan, who stood at the door wearing a white shirt and a pair of jeans.

Ye Yifan looked at Tang Xia gently, which made her a little embarrassed.

She hurriedly invited Ye Yifan to come in, who entered and sat on the couch. Tang Xia slipped away on the pretext of making tea, leaving the room silent except for the noise from the tea-making. Tang Xia kept peeking at Ye Yifan when she was making tea.

She was surprised that the handsome would pay a visit to her house. She believed that she must have accumulated merit in her last life. Tang Xia felt it took such a long time to make tea this time as if a century had gone.

The tea was finally ready when Tang Xia had peeked at Ye Yifan 50 times. She picked up a delicate cup and went back to the living room with the tea.

Tang Xia filled the cup with tea politely. “Uh, have the tea, please…” Tang Xia didn’t know how to call Ye Yifan at once and left out the salutation.

Ye Yifan found it interesting to see Tang Xia who got bashful and sipped the tea genteelly. He wasn’t thirsty at all. But he didn’t want to waste Tang Xia’s kindness. Tang Xia tried not to look at him eye to eye.

She didn’t realize that she had been blushed already. But Ye Yifan kept staring at her until he thought Tang Xia would walk away if he didn’t stop.

“You must feel sorrowful about what happened on the Internet.”

Tang Xia was in a trance for Ye Yifan’s sudden words and didn’t come to her senses for a long time. Tang Xia was moved when she finally realized what Ye Yifan had said to her because he was the first to comfort her. Tang Xia shook her head and grinned.

“No. I feel fine.”

Seeing Tang Xia’s forced smile, Ye Yifan felt sorry for her. But he could only comfort her. “That’s good. Now that everything’s gone, just let it go. You don’t have to think of those guys for there are still so many people who care about you.”

Tang Xia was much more touched and nodded. There was a moment when she felt “Childe Chu”, who popped up,

was likely Ye Yifan since he was so approachable and cared about her so much. Tang Xia thought the video which clarified for her was made by Ye Yifan. So her favorability towards him doubled. “How could he be so warm-hearted?”

There was a subtle atmosphere between the two. It seemed that Ye Yifan had other things to deal with since he looked at his watch and stood up when Tang Xia also stood up at once. Ye Yifan smiled gently. “I’m afraid I have to take my leave now.”

Tang Xia didn’t get it at the moment. “What happened? He’s leaving now?” “What? Are you leaving now?”

Ye Yifan nodded and stepped towards the door. Tang Xia followed right after him. Ye Yifan turned back and asked Tang Xia not to see him out and kept encouraging Tang Xia before he left.

“Cheer up. I’m looking forward to your next live show! Cheer up!”

Tang Xia stared at him blankly and nodded, looking so lovely that Ye Yifan couldn’t help but reach out and touched her head. Then Ye Yifan closed the door and turned away, while Tang Xia suddenly blushed. She felt terrible now. “What happened? Am I dreaming?”

The handsome touched her head!!! Tang Xia was so delighted that she hopped around the house. But soon she found she hadn’t washed her hair and popped out of the couch.

Rubbing her untidy hair, Tang Xia fell into despair.

“Damn it. I forgot washing my hair. The handsome must think me untidy… Woe…”

Tang Xia spent the night with unease. The first thing she did when she woke up the next morning was turning on the cellphone.

She sprang to her feet and sobered up the instant she saw a mass of messages.

All the headlines were “The Famous Anchor Ye Yifan Secretly Dated with Li Xianxian”. And there were videos which showed that the pair went into a hotel together.

Tang Xia couldn’t believe in this. “The handsome was so approachable and came to comfort me yesterday. But why’s there gossips between him and a woman?”

Hot news popped up one after another, while Tang Xia contemplated on her bed for a long time. She hoped that it was hype but how could it just be hype now that there had been related videos?

Tang Xia tossed and turned on her bed, not willing to believe this. Fans were in an argument. Tang Xia distracted and hesitated whether she should believe this or not. She finally decided to pay a visit to the time-travel company after a long time of thinking.

Though it was improper to ask the handsome straightforwardly, she could see him at least, which was enough to make her feel better. Moreover, it was possible that the handsome would explain to her. Tang Xia dressed herself up quickly and arrived at the office building of the time-travel company within half an hour.

Tang Xia looked up and took a deep breath before the building. It took long for her to nerve herself and walk into the building. Tang Xia planned to fetch something in her broadcast room before visiting Ye Yifan.

But it happened that the meeting room’s door opened as she passed, where a flock of people poured out and Tang Xia had to give way to them. At the same time, she saw Ye Yifan and Li Xianxian.

In addition, they seemed to be very intimate when they walked out.

Seeing this, Tang Xia hurriedly slipped into a corner in case that they might notice her. In fact, neither Li Xianxian nor Ye Yifan saw her.

They walked away talking and laughing. Tang Xia felt she had lost all her strength seeing their shadows, which looked so intimate. She sat down slowly along the wall, her eyes blank. “That’s incredible. Why?”

“He is the Prince Charming who has come to comfort me and cheered me up yesterday. Why would he be with another woman today? How can this be? Or he said he cared about me and looked forward to my next live show just out of sympathy?”

Staring at the shadows fading away, Tang Xia couldn’t help but laugh at herself. “Ah. I see… I see…”
