Join the ServerAfter sequentially shifting through several different favorite idols, Mu An finally received news of Jiang Yan’s explosive rise to fame.
In the web drama “Yearning for the Rivers and Mountains,” Jiang Yan played a youth of the demon clan acting as an undercover spy in the immortal realm.
During his undercover mission, he gradually became attracted to the resolute and brave female lead; once his identity was exposed, the female lead turned against him, but in the end, out of love, he died shielding her from a blade.
In front of the female lead, he was a submissive and well-behaved junior disciple, but behind her back, he was a ruthless demon who killed without batting an eye.
Although this character was only the third male lead, it ultimately took the internet by storm due to Jiang Yan’s outstanding acting skills and handsome looks.
“An’an! Hurry up and watch this drama! It’s that survival show contestant Jiang Yan I told you about before!”
Chen Tong excitedly tapped on his tablet.
In the video, Jiang Yan, dressed in white robes and exuding a celestial charm, caused Mu An to daze momentarily.
“How about it? Isn’t he exceptionally handsome?”
Chen Tong closely observed Mu An’s reaction, and the moment he saw him nod, a sudden sense of accomplishment surged in his heart.
Yet in the very next second, he heard his companion—who brought ruin to every idol he stan-ned—declare with a resolute expression, “I want to stan him!”
Chen Tong’s face stiffened, and he said in terror, “Actually, Jiang Yan isn’t really that energetic type of idol. Why don’t you find someone else to stan?”
“No! I must stan him!”
Mu An opened Weibo, decisively hit follow on Jiang Yan’s account, and looking at Chen Tong’s pale face, offered some kind comfort.
“Don’t worry, this one won’t collapse!”
Chen Tong’s eyes were hollow.
Had Mu An ever not looked absolutely certain when stanning someone?
Yet they all ended up collapsing in the end.
He hesitated for a moment and decided he should reign in his feelings as soon as possible and avoid stanning Jiang Yan, so he wouldn’t cry too hard in the future.
On the other side, seeing that his mission was finally heading in the right direction, Mu An began his fan duties with immense enthusiasm.
In less than three days, he had secured a prominent place in the fan group.
Many people praised his fan-made videos for being exceptionally high-energy, and even asked if the fan art he drew could be printed.
Naturally, some also discovered that he was the blogger whose stanned idols always collapsed, and a good number of people swarmed his video comment sections, begging him on their knees to unstan.
Yet right at this time, someone noticed that an account suspected to be Jiang Yan’s main account had liked his fan-made video.
All at once, a flood of more fans poured into Mu An’s account, with many praising his editing skills, stating that otherwise he wouldn’t have been noticed and acknowledged by his bias.
Mu An gladly accepted the compliments, though he was also surprised.
Did Jiang Yan actually search for and watch his own fan-made videos?
As expected of someone who had just become famous; during the rookie honeymoon phase, they loved interacting with fans!
[Host, a new mission has refreshed: Please purchase Jiang Yan’s flight itinerary from a scalper and go to the airport to pick him up.]
Hearing this, Mu An opened his WeChat balance, clutching his phone in heartache as he bid his money a sorrowful farewell.
‘My poor, sweet money. Daddy will definitely work hard to make money and redeem you.’
He opened his contacts page, located the scalper he had long cooperated with, and inquired if there was any information on Jiang Yan’s itinerary for sale.
After several detours, he ultimately purchased the information for a price of thirty thousand yuan.
Jiang Yan would arrive in Su City at ten o’clock tomorrow night.
In order to pick him up at the airport ahead of time, Mu An had to hastily purchase a flight to the Su City airport.
On that day, Mu An stood in the crowd holding his LED support board, only to find that he was actually not the only sasaeng fan; there were quite a few others who had also obtained information about Jiang Yan’s flight.
The crowd exchanged glances with one another.
Some rolled their eyes, acting quite unfriendly toward fellow fans, but several people still swapped contact details.
Upon learning that Mu An was the “Chief Manager Mu Mu” of their fandom circle, those people became much more enthusiastic, repeatedly asserting that stanning Jiang Yan would definitely not lead to a collapse.
“By the way, how much did you spend to buy the information?”
Mu An asked curiously.
To his surprise, the leader of the group froze for a second, “The few of us didn’t buy it. We contacted his studio and were permitted to come. Did you buy yours on your own?”
Mu An was stunned, feeling slightly embarrassed.
Fortunately, these people didn’t make things difficult for him; they merely advised Mu An not to buy private itineraries at high prices, as it would cause stress for Jiang Yan.
Mu An nodded with an innocent and honest expression, thinking to himself that if it weren’t for the mission, he would never have been willing to spend so much money!
That was money he had earned from selling so much merchandise and working so many odd jobs!
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, and waves of loud shouts calling out “gege” made Mu An’s eyelashes tremble, turning his head to look at the newcomer.
Surrounded in the center by numerous bodyguards, Jiang Yan wore a baseball cap and a black face mask, covering his face completely.
Hearing the noise, he could not help but raise his head to look toward them.
The moment his sharp, auspicious phoenix eyes locked onto Mu An, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes curved into an extremely faint smile.
“Ah! Gege’s smile is so beautiful!”
The boy in front of Mu An shouted excitedly.
Hearing the shout, Mu An snapped back to senses.
Refusing to be outdone, he raised his support board, took a deep breath, and yelled, “Jiang Yan, look at my camera!”
Jiang Yan actually did look at his camera, and even took off his baseball cap, exposing half of his face.
With his disheveled dark hair slightly long at the tips, his eyes were brimming with a smile.
He somewhat awkwardly formed a finger heart by his cheek, the absolute picture of a fan-service gesture.
All at once, the scene grew even more boisterous, with cheers and the shutter clicks of cameras echoing together.
Jiang Yan’s bodyguards tried their best to block the encroaching crowd, but there were still people who could not help but reach in to hand over letters.
Mu An had naturally prepared a letter as well, but there were simply too many people at the scene, making it impossible for him to squeeze his way to the front.
Jiang Yan’s manager was also urging Jiang Yan to move faster, and before long, Mu An was shoved toward the back by the crowd.
“Everyone, please don’t push! Watch your step!” Jiang Yan couldn’t help but frown and stop them.
Once their idol spoke up, most people automatically cleared a path, save for a few obsessive fans who were still pushing forward.
And Mu An happened to be one of those obsessive fans. For the sake of his persona, he shoved his way forward with all his might until he managed to thrust his letter into the manager’s hand, failing to reach Jiang Yan directly only because he couldn’t squeeze all the way to the front.
The manager, suddenly handed a letter out of nowhere, glanced up in the direction of the sender, but Mu An had already retreated to the back.
Feeling as though his feet would be crushed to a pulp by the surrounding fellow fans if he kept pushing, Mu An had no choice but to fall back.
The next second, the letter in the manager’s hand was taken away by Jiang Yan’s reaching hand.
The manager glanced sideways at Jiang Yan, whose smile was radiant, feeling a bit puzzled—why did Jiang Yan feel exceptionally enthusiastic today?
Very soon, Jiang Yan was escorted into a car and drove away. Mu An exchanged contacts with his fellow fans, traded the photos and videos they had taken, and returned to the hotel he was renting.
He uploaded his edited, atmospheric video to the internet.
Since Jiang Yan had frequently given fan service in his direction, Mu An had plenty of material to work with. High-definition retouched photos, atmospheric videos—he posted continuously for three days before stopping.
Yet the editing and retouching also meant he had barely gotten any sleep over those three days.
On the other side, Jiang Yan, currently getting his hair and makeup done for a show, lowered his eyes and saved the high-definition retouched photos posted by “Chief Manager Mu Mu” one by one.
Finally, he had stood before An’an.
And finally, he had managed to secure his existence inside An’an’s account.
His finger hovered over the caption Mu An had written on the screen: “My lens only has room for you.”
His heart beat with excited, thrilling rhythms.
