Chapter 55 Pure Love Fangirl (12)
Xia Mingwei was extremely anxious as she looked at the overwhelming stream of abusive messages online. She desperately wanted to personally explain to these people that the Candy she liked was not the kind of person the rumors online were spreading. These negative messages were all orchestrated by a group of trolls and online trolls, trying to smear him.
To counter this, she created an anti-troll thread online to refute the trolls' claims. However, her efforts alone were far too weak, and the comment section was quickly overrun by trolls and paid commenters. They looked at Xia Mingwei's posts and intensified their ridicule of her.
"It's been said that fans resemble their idols, and there's some truth to that!"
"That's hilarious! Even in this state, someone's still washing him!"
"She really is a loyal dog to your Candy!"
"At a time like this, why are you still making a fool of yourself?"
"They've already been hammered to death, why are they still crawling out to annoy people?"
"Look at how many of his fan sites have been shut down. Take my advice, you should hurry up and run away!"
Seeing the online trolls attacking Candy and hearing mocking comments everywhere she went, Xia Mingwei didn't know what to do! Her own strength was too weak to stop this horde of haters.
At that moment, during a live stream, she noticed that Candy's mood was off. He was completely different from his usual self. Although he later explained that it was a joke, Xia Mingwei took it to heart.
To find out what was going on, she went online and collected a lot of relevant information. After analyzing the details, she deduced that Candy might be suffering from depression.
Day by day, she could see that Candy's behavior was becoming more and more rigid, and her eyes had lost their former sparkle. All these changes were consistent with depression.
There are also quite a few idols in the entertainment industry who have committed suicide due to depression and chosen to leave this world.
Seeing Candy like this terrified her, and she just hoped someone would appear and help her idol.
Perhaps the heavens were deaf, for they did not hear Xia Mingwei's plea. Until later, when her health deteriorated rapidly and she passed away from illness, she didn't know what fate awaited her beloved idol as she closed her eyes.
Fortunately, now, the mission taker Xia Mingwei has arrived.
Starting over, even if she can't change the original owner's fate, she'll change her idol's mindset. She'll teach Li Ming not to care too much about what others think. Just live freely and openly.
Xia Mingwei made up her mind that even if Li Ming couldn't remember these words at all, she would still instill this idea in him at all times so that he would take it as a warning.
And so, the ordinary days passed by one by one, and before they knew it, it was time for Li Ming to debut. Just as Xia Mingwei remembered, he and six other boys from the company formed a boy group called "Vanner" and officially debuted under the stage name "Candy".
Xia Mingwei didn't want to interfere too much with his decision to debut again as a member of a boy band. She felt that she only needed to protect him during crucial moments. Otherwise, she wanted him to face the challenges on his own so that he could grow faster in the entertainment industry.
After all, Xia Mingwei could only accompany him for a time, not forever. He would have to rely on himself for the rest of his life. Only by becoming truly strong and possessing a resilient heart could he withstand the storms and hardships of the outside world.
After Li Ming's successful debut, Xia Mingwei deliberately reduced contact with him. Firstly, he was much busier now than during his trainee days; secondly, his status had changed after his debut, and Xia Mingwei didn't want their interactions to be photographed by busybodies, causing unnecessary trouble.
However, Xia Mingwei attended all of his offline stage performances. Watching Li Ming's energetic performance on stage, she suddenly felt that everything she had done before had been meaningful.
That day, Xia Mingwei's father returned from his business trip and asked Xia Mingwei to come home.
At the dinner table, her father asked about Li Ming, "The housekeeper said that you've recently taken a liking to a male idol named Candy and have done a lot for him?"
Hearing this, Xia Mingwei hesitated slightly before speaking, "Uncle Butler, it's really kind of you to know about such a small matter! But it's true, I do have a little crush on him!"
Seeing her father's brows furrowing, she immediately changed the subject, saying, "But it's not much. Compared to you, Father, he only has this much, while you have so much!"
As she spoke, she even started using hand gestures.
Xia Mingwei's playful gestures made the original owner's father beam with joy.
Looking at his daughter, who was much more lively than before, he suddenly felt that agreeing to let her go to school and interact with other people was a good decision.
Thinking of this, Xia Mingwei's father asked, "Should I talk to his company and have him come over and spend a few days with you?"
Xia Mingwei, who was enjoying her meal, was startled by her father's surprising words and choked up.
She picked up her water glass, took a sip, and let out a sigh of relief. She quickly said to her elderly father, "No need, no need!"
Hearing Xia Mingwei's refusal, he couldn't help but feel puzzled. "Don't you like him? Why don't you want to go out with him?"
"Dad, I do like him! But I like the one who shines on stage! The one who strives to pursue his dreams!"
She paused at this point.
"The way someone strives for their dreams and does everything in their power to achieve them is fascinating, and something I can't do!" Her voice trailed off, and a sense of melancholy settled over her.
Sensing that Xia Mingwei's mood had dropped, Xia Mingwei's father suddenly realized the mistake of bringing up his daughter's painful memories.
He quickly changed the subject, "It was Dad's fault, I said the wrong thing just now, Dad apologizes to you. To express Dad's apology, Dad can grant you one wish. Is there anything you want Dad to do for you?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Mingwei, who was about to wipe away her tears, immediately regained her spirits.
"Father, could you send him some resources?" Xia Mingwei looked at him hopefully and asked sincerely.
He thought about it and realized that his daughter rarely asked him for anything. Now that she had finally found something she liked, it wouldn't hurt to send some resources to that idol.
