Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 949 - 948
The first feeling Liu Yina had upon seeing Ning Xiaoyue was amazement. She knew Ning Xiaoyue was beautiful, having seen many videos and photos of her online, and could say she was quite familiar with Ning Xiaoyue’s looks.
But seeing her in person, Ning Xiaoyue still amazed her.
Ning Xiaoyue was so beautiful she seemed to glow, with a small face and very fair skin. While most people rely on filters to whiten and slim their faces to become beauties, Ning Xiaoyue herself was like a filter. Online, where filters are rampant, one might think Ning Xiaoyue is just average, but in reality, she’s a standout, always the first to catch the eye in a crowd.
Legend has it that Asia’s four great transformations include photo editing as one. Of course, in today’s era of short video popularity, photo editing has long evolved with video filters now. After adding multiple filters of whitening and slimming effects, even a sow could be transformed into Diao Chan.
Many online influencers appear as great beauties in videos, each more stunning than the last, with flawless faces that leave viewers overwhelmed, with netizens flocking to watch, shouting "wife".
However, most of these influencers, nine out of ten, cannot withstand the test of reality, commonly known as "dying in the light". Once seen offline, without ten layers of filters, they seem like entirely different people, young ladies turning into aunties, faces once alabaster showing bumps, with netizens crying out in disillusionment.
Ning Xiaoyue, however, was different. She could even say she wasn’t too photogenic. Although she looked beautiful enough in photos and videos, she wasn’t as striking as she was in reality. Moreover, Ning Xiaoyue didn’t need filters; adding them would only spoil her natural beauty.
Others "die in the light", while she becomes even more stunning.
"Wow, she’s so beautiful," Liu Yina couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly upon first sight of Ning Xiaoyue.
With someone as stunning as Ning Xiaoyue, it’s no wonder so many people like her, and she even has many male fans.
Generally speaking, most who chase stars are females, regardless of whether the star is male or female. Their fans are mostly female, as males generally lack interest in chasing stars, particularly celebrity stars, who are often looked down upon and resented by males.
Stars chased by males are more often sports stars, such as basketball stars like Kobe and Curry, who have countless male fans, or football stars Messi and C Ronaldo, who also have countless fans. Their more accurate name is "fans", but essentially, there is little distinction between fans and followers.
Fans of two sports stars often attack each other, with the stench of hostility akin to fans in the entertainment circle tearing each other apart.
Most men seldom chase stars in the entertainment circle. In their eyes, playing games is more interesting than chasing these stars, holding more disdain and resentment for stars, particularly celebrity stars.
Therefore, Ning Xiaoyue having a massive male fan base is quite remarkable in the entertainment circle.
Now that Liu Yina had seen Ning Xiaoyue with her own eyes, she somewhat understood why Ning Xiaoyue could attract so many fans, including a large number of male fans. She was truly stunning, and who wouldn’t love a beauty!
Compared to Ning Xiaoyue, Liu Yina felt a bit inferior, like an ugly duckling in front of a beautiful swan.
"Do you know who I am?" Liu Yina asked Ning Xiaoyue.
Ning Xiaoyue shook her head, not recognizing Liu Yina at first glance.
Liu Yina had to introduce herself: "My name is Liu Yina, and I’m also a newly debuted artist."
Upon hearing this, Ning Xiaoyue suddenly realized that the person before her was Liu Yina, who had been frequently stirring controversy recently.
Liu Yina’s online photos were heavily filtered, so upon seeing her in person, Ning Xiaoyue did not recognize her at first glance.
Even with ten layers of filters, Liu Yina wasn’t very pretty, and in reality, she was more ordinary.
A previous attempt to demean Ning Xiaoyue claiming she was average and commonplace turned out to be an empty claim, for there was nowhere like that street where Ning Xiaoyue could be found.
However, Liu Yina genuinely possessed a commonplace look that could be found readily on any street.
Old Liu could only be blamed for his poor genes, as his daughter took after him, making it difficult for her to look good.
Liu Yina could only rely on beauty enhancement and makeup to compensate for her natural inadequacies.
"Sorry, I didn’t recognize you; it seems a bit impolite," Ning Xiaoyue apologized to Liu Yina.
Liu Yina sighed and said, "You’re so beautiful; it’s no wonder you have so many fans. You have the natural charisma of a star, surrounded by a starry aura. Give you an opportunity, and you shine, and Creation Star’s talent show was a great opportunity that you seized. But me, you didn’t even recognize me; maybe I’m not cut out to be a star."
Ning Xiaoyue quickly said, "Don’t say that. The reason I didn’t recognize you is that I’m not very familiar with you. I certainly have seen reports about you online but only glanced at them hastily because I’m too busy. Many people also dislike me, arguing that I lack talent. I do accept my weaknesses, because someone once taught me that being your true self is enough, and people will appreciate your genuine strengths."
Liu Yina paused, then smiled: "You’re right, the person who taught you must be a wise one!"
Ning Xiaoyue nodded, saying that it was Lin Fan who taught her this, and saying Lin Fan was wise was no exaggeration.
If not for Lin Fan’s guidance, Ning Xiaoyue couldn’t imagine enduring the talent show, having gone through extreme online harassment when participating.
Liu Yina suddenly found Ning Xiaoyue adorable, comforting and cheering her on without a hint of starry airs. While some popular stars might become conceited, Ning Xiaoyue was like a caring and lovable neighborly little sister, feeling endearing.
Such a good personality.
Liu Yina thought, maybe this was the real reason Ning Xiaoyue attracted fans. So beautiful and sweet—who cares about singing or dancing ability? Just love her like a daughter or sister.
Liu Yina remembered seeing a banner from Ning Xiaoyue’s fans, which said: Ning Xiaoyue is my own daughter.
These fans genuinely treated Ning Xiaoyue like their own daughter.
Even Liu Yina felt she was starting to like Ning Xiaoyue.
"Xiaoyue, my popularity is far behind yours now. Do you think I can get famous later, like you?" Liu Yina asked Ning Xiaoyue.
Ning Xiaoyue honestly shook her head: "I don’t know."
Liu Yina said, "What if I tell you I’m about to sign with Cherry Entertainment?"
Ning Xiaoyue responded with an "oh": "Cherry Entertainment? I’ve heard of it; it’s a big entertainment company with popular stars."
Liu Yina asked, "Do you think I’ll become famous after joining Cherry Entertainment?"
