“Luoluo, where are you now? Director Li’s film ‘Hero Without Chivalry’ has wrapped filming ahead of schedule and should be able to finish ahead of schedule. It might be submitted for the Golden Rabbit Award. If possible, you and the great god should come back now, or before the film festival starts. And you must keep the terminal communication working smoothly. If it is submitted for selection and receives a nomination, I will notify you in time.” Chen Hongliang was worried that the video call would drop again, so he tried to give all the necessary instructions in one go. The most important thing was to make sure that Luo Lingxing kept the terminal communication working properly, so that they wouldn’t be unable to contact him later.
“Brother Chen, Junzhan and I are already on our way back. The terminal will remain accessible,” Luo Lingxing said to Chen Hongliang.
“That’s good, that’s good. When you get back, come to the company when you have time, and I’ll tell you the details.” Chen Hongliang visibly breathed a sigh of relief. Since the two of them were already on their way back, there was no problem at all that they could make it to the opening of the film festival.
“Okay,” Luo Lingxing replied.
“By the way, if your device can access the internet right now, remember to post a Weibo. Your fans are practically flooding the official website with messages. If you don’t show up soon, they might just storm into the company.” Chen Hongliang said, feigning a look of terror. In fact, it was true. Those fans were indeed threatening on the official website that if Luo Lingxing didn’t appear soon, they would wait for him downstairs at the company.
“Okay, I understand. I’ll post in a bit,” Luo Lingxing replied, still feeling a little guilty.
As an “ancient person” who had lived for thousands of years, although he had adapted to life in this era, he was not very used to high-tech things like Weibo. He often forgot about them. Let alone posting on Weibo every day like other celebrities, if no one reminded him, he might not even post once a month.
Since Chen Hongliang had reminded him, Luo Lingxing opened his Weibo page after hanging up the video call. Then, a terrifying number of comments, mentions, and private messages flooded in. Luo Lingxing originally planned to open them to take a look, but as soon as he saw the number, he decisively blocked them.
I took out the paper and brush I always carried with me and wrote down the content of this Weibo post.
Writing Weibo posts with a calligraphy brush has become a signature of Luo Lingxing. Even after Luo Lingxing learned how to type, Chen Hongliang still made him maintain this characteristic and always prepared paper and brushes for him.
The little fox watched its owner write with curiosity. In its memory, its owner used to grind ink and write like this often, and the black ink was exactly the same color as its fur, which made it love it.
The little fox looked at the black ink, then at its own shiny white fur, and felt a little disgusted. Its old fur was indeed much prettier. If only it could go back to black. Black was so majestic. Back then, so many spirit beasts treated it with utmost respect. Unlike now, it was just a white ball of fluff.
At this moment, Luo Lingxing had already prepared the ink and started writing his Weibo post. He was so focused that he didn’t notice a little fox quietly coming up behind him, its eyes fixed on the ink box. If he put this on his fur, would it turn black again?
The little fox was eager to try. When Luo Lingxing wasn’t paying attention, it dipped one paw into some black ink and smeared it on its fur. Sure enough, in an instant, a black patch appeared on its white fur, making it look like a white ball had been dirtied. However, the little fox was quite satisfied with this and kept dipping its paw into the ink, trying to restore its “original color”.
“Little Black, what are you doing?” Luo Lingxing noticed the little fox’s actions and couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the white fur with patches of black showing through, making it look like a little spotted fox.
However, the little fox, who had been secretly and happily painting, stiffened at the sound of its master’s voice. Its paw, still stained with ink, hung suspended in mid-air. Unable to maintain its balance, the paw slammed onto the white Xuan paper, instantly leaving a black fox paw print. Combined with Luo Lingxing’s writing, it looked as if the little fox had stamped and sealed the paper.
The little fox stared at the tiny paw prints on the pristine white paper, secretly glancing at its master. It silently shrank its already small body into a ball, trying to minimize its presence, but its dark fur was far too conspicuous.
Luo Lingxing felt both helpless and amused by Xiao Hei. Xiao Hei was very mischievous in his previous life, and it seemed that it hadn’t changed much after being reborn. He could already foresee the chaotic life ahead, but every time Xiao Hei made such a pitiful wife-like face, he couldn’t bear to scold it.
Sigh… He spoiled it so much. Who could blame it?
“Alright, stop playing with the ink and go wash yourself clean,” Luo Lingxing finally said indulgently.
This habit of tolerating it had happened for a thousand years, and it was probably impossible to break it now.
Hearing that its owner wasn’t angry, Xiao Hei immediately jumped up excitedly, wanting to jump into its owner’s arms for a hug, but Luo Lingxing dodged it the next second.
“Wash all the ink off your body first,” Luo Lingxing said, pointing to the appalling ink stains on Xiao Hei’s body.
Originally, the ink on Xiao Hei was just black dots, but after Xiao Hei made a clump, the black dots instantly turned into black blobs, making the little fox look like it had just finished rolling in the mud and was now covered in black stuff, looking extremely dirty and messy. Even Luo Lingxing couldn’t stand it anymore.
Luo Lingxing wanted to give the little fox a bath, but then he remembered what Chen Hongliang had said about posting on Weibo first. Looking at the Xuan paper that he had finally written on but the little fox had stamped, he wondered whether he should rewrite it first or just post it and then go give the little fox a bath. It’s just a tiny mark, it shouldn’t matter, right?
In the end, Luo Lingxing chose the latter, took a picture of the paper and posted it on Weibo, then took the naughty and messy little fox into the bathroom. Therefore, Luo Lingxing had no idea what kind of speculation and sensation his Weibo post with the little fox’s stamp would cause among his fans.
When Luo Lingxing’s fans discovered that their idol had finally posted on Weibo. They were so happy they wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate. Naturally, they wouldn’t miss the opportunity to make their idol’s presence felt in the comments section of his Weibo post.
Luo Lingxing V: I’m out traveling and everything is fine. Let’s all look forward to the release of ‘Hero Without Chivalry’.
“Aww… Luoluo, you finally posted on Weibo! If you hadn’t posted on Weibo, I was going to report you as a missing person!”
“Luoluo’s handwriting is still so beautiful. Ever since I became a fan of Luoluo, I have been practicing calligraphy, but writing with a brush is really difficult. Luo luo writes so well, it’s amazing. When will I be able to write well, and not just as well as Luoluo? If I can write even half as well as Luoluo, I’ll be secretly happy.”
“Can I say that I have always used Luoluo’s handwriting as a model for calligraphy practice?” “My biggest wish right now is that Luoluo can update his Weibo more often, so I can get more calligraphy practice books! My mom even praised me when she found out I was using Luoluo’s handwriting to practice calligraphy! [Proud]” “Me too, me too! His calligraphy is so beautiful! I’ve been practicing calligraphy so much lately that I’m almost going crazy. My mom even thought I was possessed by something and almost had to find someone to exorcise me. It’s so ridiculous! (>一<)” “By the way, has no one noticed the little mark at the bottom of Luoluo’s Weibo post?”
“Raise your hand. I noticed it too. What is this?” “Could it be Lolo’s stamp?” “Those calligraphy masters would stamp their seals on the bottom of every piece of calligraphy.”
“It shouldn’t be a stamp, right? Aren’t stamps all red?”
“It looks like the paw of some small animal to me, but it shouldn’t be the paw of a cat beast. The paw of a cat beast is more rounded.”
“It doesn’t seem like a dog beast either. It’s not that sharp, so what could it be?”
Fans began to speculate wildly about what animal the small paw prints below the Weibo post belonged to, guessing all sorts of animals. However, each guess was quickly refuted by others who would compare the paw prints with those of the animal in question, finding that everyone’s guesses were incorrect.
This did not dampen everyone’s enthusiasm. On the contrary, it seemed to ignite a certain wave, making the fans’ discussions even more heated. Some people even took screenshots of Luo Lingxing’s Weibo post and posted them on forums, online communities, and other communication websites to brainstorm and gather more netizens’ knowledge and insights to speculate. In no time, this Weibo post and topic could be seen in various places where fans gathered, and it even became a trending topic on Weibo.
Actually, all we needed to do was leave a message on Luo Lingxing’s Weibo to ask him directly. But the fans insisted on finding the answer themselves. In their words, “Luoluo finally posted a Weibo, so of course we have to find the answer ourselves. And judging from the current situation, we can play with this Weibo for a month or even longer, so that we won’t be bored if Luoluo doesn’t post on Weibo.”
Well, this was all because fans were bored and had no news about their idols.
So many fans went to the library to look for books about animals in order to find the answer. They didn’t find the answer, but they did gain a lot of knowledge.
Soon, more and more people joined the guessing game, with an attitude of not giving up until they guessed it correctly. Even some people who were not in the industry or some celebrities noticed it, and some who became interested even joined in the guessing. In no time, the paw print was almost becoming a nationwide guessing game. It has to be said that these fans are really going all out.
Of course, Luo Lingxing was unaware of all this.
Actually, if an ordinary celebrity posted such a Weibo post, it might not have caused so much speculation and sensation. But this person happened to be Luo Lingxing, who was currently very popular and rising to fame.
If Luo Lingxing had posted more on Weibo to interact with his fans, they might not have noticed such a small detail. However, Luo Lingxing posted so infrequently that it was outrageous. Fans had no choice but to keep digging out his previous posts and studying them carefully, even scrutinizing every single word. So how could such a large paw print not be seen by his fans?
Therefore, all these reasons combined to lead to the fans’ enthusiasm for studying that paw print.
To put it bluntly, the reason for this outcome was that there was too little news about Luo Lingxing, and the fans were too bored, so they focused on something to pass the time.
