Chapter 448: Chapter 446: Dinner Gathering

Soon, the superfans all arrived.

In fact, many of them were familiar faces, as they were regulars at the Night Bar.

Of course, they had only become regulars for Jiang Qin. After all, before she came along, females rarely went to bars.

Compared to bars, manors were more suitable for their entertainment.

There were handsome males showcasing their talents, a wide variety of food and drinks, and even dance floors and karaoke equipment.

Wasn’t that much better than just sitting stiffly in a bar drinking Inhibitors?

But a bar with Jiang Qin was different, which was why they had become regulars.

It was the same for the male fans. Not everyone enjoyed drinking Inhibitors at a bar; they could just as easily use an "As Wished" at home.

But with Jiang Qin around, drinking at home had become a bit dull.

Jiang Qin went up to greet them one by one, with Wen Jiaqi introducing them by her side.

"This is one of the administrators for our first fan group, Mr. Ning Feiyu. He’s an entertainment review blogger."

Ning Feiyu was the very same entertainment critic who had become a fan of Jiang Qin because of her song "Xi."

Since becoming her fan, he had written numerous reviews for every one of her songs, dramas, and movies.

Of course, his reviews were mostly objective. He wouldn’t offer excessive praise, nor would he engage in the kind of nitpicking that "knocks off a point just so you don’t get arrogant."

He still insisted on being himself, pointing out flaws directly and showering praise on the good parts.

The only difference was that he had lost interest in other people’s work. He now spent his days staring at Jiang Qin’s homepage and fan groups, waiting for the latest news.

This was one of the reasons he had worked so hard to become an administrator.

Although he was a huge fan of Jiang Qin, this was their first time meeting, so he couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.

"Miss Jiang, it’s a pleasure to meet you."

"Pfft— Xiao Yu, don’t you usually call her Qin Bao? Why are you being so formal with ’Miss Jiang’?"

Wen Xueli ruthlessly exposed his pretense.

"Alright, I’ll come clean— Qin Bao, I truly love all of your work! Please, you must, you absolutely must keep working hard!!

Without you, my spirit would become empty and desolate, and I would find life meaningless!!"

Fearing Jiang Qin would find Ning Feiyu too dramatic, Wen Xueli explained, "Xiao Yu used to suffer from Spiritual Void Syndrome. Although he’s been cured, it’s very easy for him to relapse..."

This condition was a common ailment among Interstellar People, especially those who weren’t naturally social.

And that was why Ning Feiyu, despite being wealthy, still lived with a friend.

First, it was to encourage him to interact with others. Second, they were afraid he might commit suicide.

But ever since he started listening to Jiang Qin’s songs every night, his symptoms had improved greatly. Her dramas and movies had also accompanied him through many hours of treatment.

Now, while he wasn’t completely cured, he was no longer in so much pain.

Jiang Qin didn’t find him dramatic at all, because she understood the situation perfectly.

So, instead of being displeased, she solemnly promised, "I won’t give up on my career."

Hearing this, all the fans present felt relieved.

Their biggest fear was that their idol would suddenly announce her retirement to focus on her family one day. After all, High-level females didn’t lack money, and you could never be sure how long they would choose to work.

Now that they had Jiang Qin’s word, everyone felt much more at ease.

After that, Wen Jiaqi continued introducing the other fans to Jiang Qin.

She took a photo with everyone and gave out small, autographed gifts.

She also made a point to remember each and every one of them.

At the very end, she realized the leader of Fan Group 1 didn’t seem to be there, so she asked Wen Jiaqi about it.

She replied helplessly, "The group leader was supposed to come. She was incredibly excited and even said she would take us sightseeing.

But a few days ago, she said she couldn’t come early because her elders had grounded her. She said she’d do her best to make it today.

But I haven’t seen her, so I guess she couldn’t come..."

"I see. That’s alright, we’ll see her next time," Jiang Qin said with a smile.

"Qiqi, do you have her address? I’d like to send her a little gift."

"I do. I’ll send it to you in a bit."

"Okay."

Then, everyone began to eat dinner happily.

There was no culture of toasting in the Interstellar era, so Jiang Qin didn’t go from table to table. She just chatted and laughed with everyone.

The meal lasted for a full three or four hours.

Mainly, everyone wanted to spend more time with her, and she didn’t refuse.

It wasn’t until people started to look tired that they began to leave first.

Beta selected a few of the photos taken at the dinner party tonight and sent them to the various fan groups.

She also picked a few to send to the studio. Since she wasn’t sure if tonight’s photos could be uploaded to the Star Network, she didn’t post them herself.

However, even though she didn’t upload them, other fans posted them on their own social media feeds, and from there, someone shared them on the Star Network.

Instantly, a wave of salty comments popped up.

[I’m feeling so sour. I think I’m sick... sick with jealousy~]

[I’m sick too. I want to pretend to be one of the superfans.]

[Qin Bao dotes on her fans so much! She was actually willing to meet them privately, treat them to dinner, and even give them gifts!!]

[Everyone in the entertainment industry should take notes. Stop taking our money all day long only to look down on us.]

[Yeah, look at how Qin Bao didn’t deliberately keep her distance in the photos with everyone. The smile on her face is so genuine.

Unlike some celebrities who look down on low-Level females and low-Level males, not to mention those who aren’t even Beastmen.

But among Qin Bao’s superfans, there are even Half-beastmen and pure humans, and she didn’t look down on any of them.]

[In the entire entertainment industry, Qin Bao’s superfans are probably the only ones who accept Half-beastmen and pure humans.]

[It’s true. That’s one thing about Jiang Qin that makes her so likable. When her studio hires staff, they don’t look at any of that, only at ability.

There really aren’t any other High-level females like her, especially not in the entertainment world, which is all about fawning over the powerful and trampling on the weak.]

[I wonder what the requirements are to join the fan group and become an admin...]

[To the person above, there are no special requirements. If you want to join the group, just contact Miss Xie An’an. She’ll send you the contact information for the group administrators.]

Then, as long as it’s confirmed that you’re truly a fan of Jiang Qin, you can basically join the group.

However, becoming an administrator isn’t so easy.

You either have to be an old-timer from the very first fan group, or you have to have a skill and volunteer your services.

In the past, you could also organize fan support by splashing cash like the group leader did, but that’s not possible anymore.

...

Exhausted after a long day, Jiang Qin had already washed up and was now lying in bed, playing on her Light Computer.

She had wanted to spend some time with her daughter, but Zhaozhao was already fast asleep, so she didn’t want to disturb her.

Instead, she decided to lie in bed and check the Star Network to see what people were saying about today’s concert.

The verdicts she found were: good, very good, and excellent!

Photos of each of her outfits and makeup looks had been leaked, but there weren’t many videos of her singing. The same few songs were just being circulated over and over.

Currently, the most popular were "As Wished," from the beginning of the concert, and "Later," which she sang at the end.
