Chapter 28: An Wen's Front Face Gets Photographed
An Wen exchanged WeChat contacts with them, and when she saw Xia Jin’s profile, she burst into laughter again.
Name: Little Whale
Profile Picture: A dog’s head with a startled expression
An Wen: "..." The goofy image really doesn’t lie! How has he maintained his cold male god persona all these years?
They only returned to the hotel after eating until they were stuffed. An Wen called for her driver and, once in the car, habitually checked Weibo.
That’s when she discovered that their group dinner had been secretly photographed by passersby, and two hashtags were already trending.
Among them, [An Wen's Front Face] was the top trending topic, and its popularity kept rising as more netizens clicked on it.
Opening the hashtag, the top post was from a passerby:
"Tonight, I went out for skewers with a few girlfriends, only to find that the usual spot had been booked by the ‘Ding Qian Kun’ crew. We got to see Xia Jin and Cheng Hanwen—two major male gods in the flesh. They’re seriously so handsome, their faces are ridiculously refined, especially Xia Jin. He looks way better in person than in photos, like he’s just not photogenic.
But most importantly, I also saw this stunning beauty—long straight hair, wearing a white dress, slim and fair with an incredible aura. She’s the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen! After comparing her to Qing Sha’s official promo images, I’m certain it’s An Wen. That picture wasn’t photoshopped at all—An Wen’s front face is genuinely gorgeous. This shallow stan is officially converted!"
The post included nine secretly taken photos. Though some were blurry, it didn’t detract from An Wen and the others at all.
Since others were also in the shots, the comments were flooded with fans of Xia Jin and Cheng Hanwen gushing over their looks. However, the two fanbases weren’t getting along, so most captions were along the lines of:
"Only saw Xia Jin—so handsome!"
"Xia Jin’s visuals are a miracle of nature!"
"My eyes were glued to Cheng Hanwen. Truly Cheng the Untouched—even in a random passerby’s shot, he’s this good-looking!"
But since this was under An Wen’s hashtag, the two fanbases mostly just liked existing comments without adding much.
As a result, comments from casual netizens gradually rose to the top:
"This girl is seriously beautiful—her skin is glowing."
"Her posture is so elegant, like a noble lady."
"I can feel her aura even through my phone screen. So ethereal and untouchable! Perfect for Qing Sha."
"Even with the blurry pics, as a book fan, I can’t bring myself to hate her. She fits Qing Sha so well."
"Is this an immortal descending to earth? My god…"
"Where did Director Ye find such a beauty? Legendary!"
Though there were still negative comments, they were negligible compared to the praise. As expected, visuals were the ultimate weapon for gaining fans.
An Wen’s Weibo followers had already surpassed a million after the official announcement, but this trending topic caused her numbers to skyrocket. In just a short while, she had broken two million and was still climbing.
After browsing her own hashtag for a while, she checked the crew’s other trending topic: [Xia Jin and Cheng Hanwen Playing Games During Dinner].
The photos showed everyone at the table eating skewers—except for the two of them, who were playing a game with their heads close together.
Most comments read: "Their friendship is clearly fine—it’s just the fans making drama."
An Wen scrolled for a bit before exiting.
Suddenly, a WeChat notification popped up. Xia Jin had created a group, adding An Wen and Cheng Hanwen.
Group Name: Revolution Camp.
[Xia Jin: Wanna play a round?]
[Cheng Hanwen: …]
[Cheng Hanwen: What kind of name is this?]
[An Wen: …]
[Xia Jin: Little Brother Cheng, Little Sister An, care for a round?]
[Cheng Hanwen: Big Brother, spare me please.]
[Xia Jin: What? Thinking Big Brother can't wield a knife anymore?]
[Cheng Hanwen: Don’t make me add Director Ye to the group.]
