Group Pet Eldest Lady, She Just Wants To Be A Salted Fish

Chapter 25 Part 4 – “Hello Ruan Yōu, I’m Lu Jin.”

On the homepage of the fan page, a post had been forwarded over a hundred thousand times.

【@唯一的哥哥 (The Only Brother): Had someone design a cotton doll, and also matched it with two pieces of clothing.】

Ruan Yōu only knew a little about cotton dolls, that they were miniature versions of stars and many fans made this kind of merchandise, costing only a few tens of yuan each. But the problem was —

Which star’s cotton doll could wear clothing personally tailored by China’s top designers!

What was the purpose of having such a large exclusive logo printed on the clothes of a cotton doll? To promote a new trend in the cotton doll industry?

What was even more shocking was yet to come.

【This doll is exquisitely crafted, it’s truly a proportionally scaled-down version of Ruan Yōu.】

【Wuwuwu, no wonder you’re “Ruan Yōu’s first true male fan” in our fan club, you really love her!】

【So jealous of The Only Brother, TAT how can he hide Ruan Yōu in his pocket?】

【Mini Yōuyōu, mommy loves you!】

【Our superstar, Yōuyōu, is the most suited person to wear luxury clothes.】

【So beautiful and exquisite, brother, where did you find the designer and factory? The craftsmanship is so high, completely outdoing other cotton dolls.】

【Don’t call the blogger brother, call him The Only Brother. He only has one sister and doesn’t let others call him brother.】

【It’s speculated that it was made purely by hand, it’s not in the same league as machine-produced dolls.】

【Rounded off, is Yōuyōu wearing haute couture? (dog head emoji)】

This handmade customized cotton doll not only beats the dolls in the entertainment industry but also resembles Ruan Yōu’s features and hairstyle, making it a model in the cotton doll world.

However, the reason why Ruan Yōu’s fan page gained thousands of followers in a day and went viral is not solely due to the quality of the doll.

After Ruan Yōu’s fans reposted the Weibo, it attracted the attention of passers-by and other celebrities’ fans, leading to controversy.

With more people, it’s easy to spark conflict. Passers-by were amused, while other celebrities’ fans were unhappy after hearing Ruan Yōu’s fans say that their cotton dolls were better. They began to argue and made Ruan Yōu’s fans feel a headache.

【Are they crazy? Is adding a logo considered high-end luxury?】

【Ha! They have gone mad. just printing a logo makes it a luxury brand? Can handmade dolls and sweaters made by mom also be considered haute couture? Please, there is a standard process for haute couture, only the ones made by dozens of tailors can be called haute couture, okay?】

【Huh? It’s obvious that it’s just a joke? (dog head emoji) Why are some people jumping up and down?】

. . . . .

After about ten minutes of arguing, the well-known Chinese designer Du Zhan, suddenly appeared into Ruan Yōu’s Weibo fan page account and commented on the post by @唯一的哥哥 (The Only Brother), saying, “I am the creator of those products. Two small pieces of clothing were designed and produced by me last night.”

This sentence caused a lot of commotion.

【Hehehe, Du Zhan’s studio meets the haute couture requirements mentioned by the ‘Master of Understanding’ upstairs. Are those who are jumping still here?】

【Apologize to our Yōuyōu!】

【The Only Brother, you have some background.】

【The Only Brother, please keep it up. As a fan of Yōuyōu, I am very satisfied with your recent behavior.】

【”Ruan Yōu’s first true male fan” can only be you, forever you!】

. . . . .

Thus, Ruan Yōu Weibo has successfully gained popularity.

What’s even more remarkable is that everyone in the entertainment industry knows:

The most popular cotton doll in the industry is from the unremarkable retired artist Ruan Yōu. Not only does she have a custom-made doll, but the clothes she changes into are all top-notch luxury items, surpassing the entire entertainment industry.

The trending topics #RuanYōuCottonDoll# and #TheOnlyBrother# have been on the hot search list for a long time.

Ruan Yōu feels conflicted.

Why do her fans want to turn her into a small doll to fit in their pockets?

Lu Ming called her again.

“Have you finished reading it? You have a wealthy and powerful fan! He’s amazing!”

Lu Ming’s voice was excited and sharp.

Gu Fuchen, sitting across from Ruan Yōu, pretended to read a magazine. Half of his face was hidden behind it, but the corners of his lips were silently upturned.

“But the name on his Weibo is so strange. Could it be your brother?” Lu Ming asked.

Ruan Yōu was taken aback and instinctively looked at Gu Fuchen.

Gu Fuchen tensed up, his fingers gripping the magazine turning white. He slowly put down the magazine and said in a calm and composed tone, “What is Weibo?”

His tone contained three parts calmness, three parts confusion, and four parts composure, with a natural and noble temperament emanating from his whole body.

Ruan Yōu shook her head repeatedly, my friend is just overthinking it.

She covered her phone with her hand and lowered her voice. “It couldn’t be him.”

Although her brother could be childish at times, he wouldn’t be so childish as to create a cotton doll for her on Weibo.

There was also a strange ‘check-in competition.’

Ruan Yōu was particularly shocked when she saw this competition.

Don’t they ever sleep?

Ruan Yōu clicked on the fan page again and posted her first post in life:

【@Ruan Yōu: You don’t have to check in for me anymore. I won’t return to the entertainment industry. I’m sorry. Sleep well, and eat well.】

【Wuwuwu, my darling, don’t say sorry.】

【Thank you very much, Yōuyōu. If I hadn’t entered this fandom, I wouldn’t have met so many interesting people here.】

【Yes! We are so happy to participate in the check-in competition together. Because of you, we have the opportunity to gather, love you lots!】

【Don’t apologize TAT, I’m happy that you can enjoy the life you like. We also have met many people because of you. This is our home and you are the force that brings us together.】

Everyone has their own small circle to join.

Some people join photography groups because they enjoy photography, while others join Ruan Yōu’s fan page because they like her.

After Ruan Yōu left the circle, they knew she wouldn’t come back, but they stayed here because they had a common topic and lots of things to share and chat about.

It’s such a small fan page that brings together strangers.

After reading most of the comments, Ruan Yōu’s nose was a bit sour.

Her fans are so gentle QAQ.

When she was in the entertainment industry, she didn’t have many fans because her company and agent didn’t know how to promote her, and her resources were inadequate. Plus, due to the messy editing of variety shows, many people disliked her.

She never imagined that after leaving the industry, there would be a group of people who became fans of hers because of her looks, what she said when leaving the industry, regrets, or other reasons.

After hesitating for a while, Ruan Yōu joined her fan page on Weibo, leaving her account there as a memory for them.

After dinner, Gu Fuchen and Ruan Yōu went to attend a private invesment class.

According to what was said in the small group chat, tonight, Jiang Huai, Fu Jiazhan, Lu Jin, Lu Xuan, Qi Zhiyan, and Wen Juxi were all there.

Gu Fuchen seemed absent-minded on the way there.

He was certain that Ruanruan didn’t recognize his Weibo trumpet account and was only worried about the upcoming class.

No one knows what the star-chasing fanatic Lu Jin will do when he meets his idol.

The car slowly stopped in front of a villa.

The driver reminded in a low voice, “Young Master Gu, Miss Ruan Yōu, we’ve arrived.”

Ruan Yōu got off the car and looked up at the two-story villa.

The lights on the first and second floors were on.

She didn’t know where the other heirs who came to the class were.

Gu Fuchen stood outside the iron gate and waved at her. Ruan Yōu snapped out of her thoughts and ran to his side, burying her face in her scarf while looking at him with bright and lively eyes.

“Nervous?”

Ruan Yōu: “Just a little bit.”

It was her first time seeing so many tycoons and heirs together.

“They are easy to get along with.”

Ruan Yōu knew.

Last time she played games with Gu Fuchen, the other three tycoons behaved extremely calmly, especially the support Jiangshui, Ah Jiangshui who didn’t even buy skins, was so simple that it was shocking.

After passing through the iron gate and the small courtyard at the entrance, she and Gu Fuchen stood at the door of the first floor.

Gu Fuchen gestured for her to push the door.

Ruan Yōu clenched and then opened her five fingers, her fair fingers lightly resting on the door handle and gently pulling it back.

The gap between the door and the door frame widened silently, and the scenery inside gradually became clear.

No one was in the entrance.

Ruan Yōu breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward, intending to ask where the slippers were, but when she looked up—

Six wealthy heirs were staring at her without moving.

Lu Jin was the first to come back to his senses. He nervously walked to Ruan Yōu, “Hello Ruan Yōu, I’m Lu Jin.”

Ruan Yōu was surprised for a moment.

At the right time, Gu Fuchen’s voice sounded, his tone was light, “Hmm, he likes to walk with the same hand and foot.”

Ruan Yōu: ?

Upon hearing this sentence, Lu Jin turned his head in disbelief and looked towards the other five, as if seeking their answer.

—Did I really walk with the same hand and foot?

The others nodded silently to save Lu Jin’s face, but only Lu Xuan grinned and began teasing his brother, “Brother, you really walked with the same hand and foot just now!”

Lu Jin: ?

Are you serious?
