Chapter 638 Official Announcement
"Boyfriend? Do you know what it means to you if you admit it, Liu Yimei?" Liu Lili stared at her daughter with wide eyes.
"What does it mean?"
"The image I have built for you for a long time..." Liu Lili felt heartbroken when she thought that if Liu Yimei admitted that she had a man outside, her advertising endorsements and movie roles would be affected.
"For these, will I never get married in my life?" Liu Yimei asked.
"No, I just hope you can wait a few years..."
"Mom, I'm going to be 31 soon! Can I still get married if I wait a few more years?"
"Why weren't you in a hurry before?"
"That's because I didn't meet the right person before!"
"There are many guys in the country who are more handsome and more elegant than him..."
"Those guys with greasy hair and powdered faces are too superficial and hypocritical, disgusting!" Liu Yimei showed a disgusted expression, "They can tell you that they love you forever, while sleeping with multiple women at the same time. I don't want to share a man with those cousins!"
"Hey, hey! Liu Yimei, watch your words..." Liu Lili was speechless about her daughter's outspokenness, "And how do you know that there is no other woman around that man..."
"I have paid attention to the reports about Bruno, and there has never been a woman around him." Liu Yimei said with certainty.
"But you are 7 years older than him, you two are really not suitable... When you get older, do you think he will still love you like that?"
………………
Liu Yimei ignored her mother's advice and said to herself: "Age is not a problem. I love him and he loves me, that's enough! Personal image and so on can be rebuilt. Just think of it as my transformation. I am tired of being called a 'vase'. It seems that as long as I appear in front of the camera, I can get paid for this face without having to perform anything. My efforts are always ignored by them. They only say that the biggest reason why Liu Yimei can become popular is that she is beautiful! But I am an actor, not a high-class prostitute!" Liu Yimei became excited, "If I can choose, I would rather be ugly!"
Why did she hate the interviews her mother arranged for him? Because the hosts of those interview programs have expressed the above views on Liu Yimei on different occasions.
Liu Lili was speechless because of her excited daughter. She did have such thoughts when she arranged this image for her daughter. Isn't it the best shortcut to become famous just by looking good without any acting skills? Why not do such a simple thing?
Liu Lili knows that compared with superb acting skills, the audience prefers pretty faces and sweet smiles. Young artists always rely on their faces to become popular, why do they have to go the thankless route of acting?
She has always ignored that her daughter is actually very good at acting, and she showed this talent when she was in school. And she has been working hard to improve her acting skills, hoping that one day everyone will ignore her face and respect her efforts and acting skills.
………………
As a mother, Liu Lili didn't know what to say, and as a daughter, Liu Yimei stopped talking, just sitting on the sofa and quietly cleaning her backpack.
The sirens sounded on the street outside, and it seemed that the reporters did not obey and disperse.
Of course, if they could be driven away by Liu Lili's words, they would not be worthy of being reporters.
Maybe the neighbors who were annoyed called the police.
But at this time, Liu Lili no longer had the heart to care about those things. She sat on the chair, staring blankly at her daughter who was packing up her things.
She has really grown up!
She still remembers that her daughter listened to her when she was a child. Since that man abandoned her and Liu Yimei, the mother and daughter have depended on each other until now.
Her daughter will always be the good girl in her heart. She will agree to do whatever she says even if she is reluctant.
Liu Lili is used to that kind of life. She never thought that one day her precious daughter would go against her wishes and do something that would make her very sad.
Yes, the princess will grow up one day, and the queen will grow old one day. She can't accompany her for a lifetime, protect her, love her... design and arrange everything for her.
"Okay... I know that many media want to know your own comments on this matter. But as you said, we have to be selective. This is a good opportunity, it will make your reputation rise to a higher level. If we seize this opportunity, bad things will turn into good things." Liu Lili said, this time her voice was much weaker than before, perhaps because she was tired from the quarrel, or perhaps because she had not rested well in the past few days.
………………
Liu Yimei did not make any comments on her mother's words. She was neither happy nor disgusted.
As an entertainment star, she must accept and be aware of using her privacy to hype.
"Liu Yimei, you have to think about it. Do you really want to abandon the title of 'Fairy Sister' and take another path?"
Liu Yimei nodded firmly and said, "That's not something you are reluctant to give up."
Liu Lili walked up, kissed Liu Yimei on the forehead, and said, "Good luck, baby..."
Then she went upstairs. Liu Yimei knew that she must have something to do in the study room to contact the media for herself, accept interviews, and explain the truth to the fans who supported her.
She knew that if she made this decision, many fans would be sad and even feel betrayed. But she didn't care. Compared with the fans, Bruno's importance was self-evident.
For Bruno, she could betray the whole world, let alone some fans. But she still had to apologize to the fans, because the "Fairy Sister" in their minds was about to disappear and never come back.
She turned on the computer to see if there were any reports on her "scandal" on the Internet.
As expected, her "scandal" occupied a lot of program time in the entertainment news being broadcast by Douyin.
Unlike the previous news that was just some photos, these news on Douyin showed a video. She and Bruno were in the Forbidden City. The two of them hugged each other passionately, kissed, and then separated. Bruno's fingers were around her waist. Sometimes they stared at each other, doing nothing, as if no one was around. They didn't look like tourists visiting here at all.
Liu Yimei watched the video playing on the computer, and the host's chatter was automatically filtered out by her. The corners of her mouth curled up. It was really interesting to see herself and Bruno from the audience's perspective.
She really wanted to say to the sneak photographer: "It's a good shot."
………………
The news on the Internet spread very quickly. When Liu Yimei released the news through multiple channels such as Xinlang Weibo and Douyin, admitting her relationship with the famous football star Bruno, the news quickly spread all over the world, including the United States across the ocean.
Vanessa, who was preparing to receive the Gulfstream aircraft ordered by herself and Bruno in the United States, was informed of the news by her father. Although she was very angry at the first time, she did not explode. Even after hanging up the phone, she did not vent hysterically, but opened her business laptop.
Vanessa leaned back in the chair and looked at the web page that had been completely refreshed. There were two photos on it. The first one was a photo of Liu Yimei and Bruno hugging each other, facing the camera. The second one was even more exciting, a photo of Liu Yimei and Bruno kissing each other passionately without paying attention to anyone around.
Just from these two static photos, Vanessa could feel the deep sweetness between the two.
Then, Vanessa searched Liu Yimei's personal information on the Internet again, and then fell into silence.
It seems that she really met a strong enemy...
………………
Although she had known some of Bruno's affairs in the East, Vanessa did not confront Bruno. She just quietly handed over the ultra-luxury private jet ordered by the two to Gulfstream, returned to Manchester, and began to deal with the work that Bruno had handed over before, and communicated with him about the progress of the work every day by email or phone.
Through Vanessa, Bruno also learned about some of Manchester United's situation.
This summer, Manchester United did not continue to make waves in the transfer market.
After two summer transfers, Manchester United's reconstruction has been completed. The team's current lineup has tended to be stable. It no longer needs to recruit as many players as in the previous two summer transfers. It only needs to make some simple personnel adjustments.
In terms of buying players, Manchester United mainly introduced Brazilian midfielder Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk in the Ukrainian League. This Brazilian midfielder with good offense and defense performed well in Shakhtar last season. His outstanding performance in the two Champions League knockout matches against Manchester United attracted Mourinho's attention. In addition, Carrick retired. Manchester United only has Kante as a reliable choice in the defensive midfielder position.
After repeated thinking, Mourinho asked Manchester United to sign this Brazilian midfielder, and after negotiations, Manchester United spent 45 million pounds to sign the Brazilian.
In addition, Manchester United also spent 20 million pounds to sign Portuguese teenager Dalot as a substitute for the full-back.
While buying players, Manchester United is also cleaning up some redundant players in the team. Belgian midfielder Marouane Fellaini was sold to the Chinese Super League team Shandong Dong for 20 million pounds. Dutch defender Blind returned to his old club Ajax for 20 million pounds, which was 6 million pounds more than when he joined Manchester United four years ago.
Bruno was on a leisurely vacation in the countryside of his hometown in his previous life. No one in the isolated village recognized that this foreigner was the football superstar who had recently swept the world.
Vanessa's phone calls became more and more frequent, complaining about a lot of things, and it was almost August, so Bruno knew that he had to go back to Manchester.
After Bruno set the date for his return trip, Vanessa almost immediately helped him book a flight.
