You are all bad women! Don't come over!-Chapter 391 - 380 (5/6)
"How come, lost for words now?" Shen Mochen snorted softly through his nose, his face filled with disdain, "I'm not some low-end actor who got popular through a talent show; I'm a national hero!"
Why do I feel like punching him? Feels like every time he comes back from vacation, he becomes more of a show-off than before!
Han Muxue ground her teeth in hatred, and then a thought suddenly struck her; this was kind of like when he was a kid...
Xia Qingrou's little face crumpled, "What the heck is a 'national hero'? Are you going to star in a TV drama?"
"That's the thing, there are very few male Superpower Users enlisting nowadays, and because their Skills tend not to be Combat system, they aren't given much attention or promotion. But since Student Shen has been here for such a long time, I suppose everyone is clear about his contributions in battle, which are no less significant than those of a combat-oriented Superpower User..."
Xia Qingrou came to a realization: "Yanyan, are you saying that the higher-ups have chosen him to be the representative of the male Supplementers for propaganda?"
"Right, the officials want to promote male Supplementers this time, to spark enthusiasm among male Superpower Users to enlist."
"It would be better to just make it mandatory for boys to serve two years after awakening, just like the girls!" Xia Qingrou pouted, "I've always felt that this isn't fair!"
Han Muxue scoffed, "Your brain really is simpler than toilet paper. Do you think such a law could pass in parliament? Those old men would rather have a male Superpower User at their beck and call! Compulsory service for males? That's like stealing their property!"
"Even so, if we are to promote male Supplementers, should it not be aimed at males? Why not find someone more relatable... Choosing him, there's no sense of identification!"
Xia Qingrou jabbed Shen Mochen's face with frustration.
Han Muxue looked on coldly: "Do you really think the commercial is meant for males?"
"Isn't it to stir up the mens' fervor to enlist and serve their country?"
"That's the official line, sure. But since they picked this scumbag for the ad, then the commercial ain't for guys to watch, it's for girls. Guys don't need to feel anything for the ad; as long as the girls get excited screaming about the hot guy, that's all that matters."
"What's the point of that..."
"Don't you get it? It's a big deal. How many recruitment ads get made a year? There've been promotions for male Superpower Users before, without making a splash. The audience is tired of that. So now, what they want is not just a promotional film, but to launch a traffic superstar as the representative figure of male Supplementers, to have his face come to mind whenever male Supplementers are mentioned! Then, a bunch of idiotic women will start yelling, 'Hubby, hubby,' and will 'live and die' for him, amplifying his fame, becoming his loyal fan base!"
Xia Qingrou glanced at Shen Mochen again, her mouth drooping unhappily: "But even so, him becoming a household-name superstar doesn't have anything to do with the ordinary guys…"

Han Muxue's expression grew impatient: "Of course, it does. Once he becomes associated with 'male Supplementers,' the average idiot woman will be conditioned like Pavlov's dogs; mentioning male Supplementers will automatically conjure up a glowing image in their minds. When male Supplementers become an occupation that's crazily idolized by women, becoming something of great honor, naturally, those male Superpower Users who were originally reluctant to enlist will naturally feel an urge to serve their country!"
"I think I understand now, but will it really go that smoothly..."
"Don't underestimate human stupidity. Yupi has been promoting how wonderful and miraculous foreign countries are for years, as if their high moral standards are so lofty that you could drink their toilet water to your heart's content. So some foreigners, even if they're total crap, get fawned over in Yupi, turning into someone high and mighty. Then just say 'I love you' in a foreign language and you can mesmerize certain people like mad!"
Xia Qingrou was utterly speechless; she now completely understood the work that Shen Mochen was going to do next.
Yep, it was to please other women.
She clenched her fist, suddenly feeling a blaze igniting in her heart, burning fiercely.
Shen Mochen watched Han Muxue and Xia Qingrou's conversation and suddenly snorted with laughter.
"What are you laughing at, you're pleased to be called 'husband' by a woman?" Xia Qingrou ground her teeth in resentment.
"No, I was just reminded of a cartoon."
"What cartoon?"
"'No Brains and Unhappy.'"
"I'm pretty happy most of the time!"
Han Muxue calmly retorted, "Don't deceive yourself, what he's saying is that you're brainless."
Xia Qingrou looked at Shen Mochen and sneered, "Right, right, right, I'm the brainless one, if I had brains I wouldn't have fallen for a jerk!"
"What's this about, I didn't say you were brainless." Shen Mochen felt the overwhelming jealousy and dared not to joke anymore, "Moreover, I want to clarify that this wasn't my requirement, it was General Yan's, I was completely forced!"
"Can't you refuse it, isn't it just because you want to become famous!"
Liu Chaoyan spoke up at this point, "Shen can't refuse, he offended some big shots and it's a threat to his personal safety, this is also one of the ways Buque is protecting him."
"Who have you offended?"
Xia Qingrou and Han Muxue asked anxiously almost at the same time, then felt awkward as they caught each other's glance.
"You are still…" Han Muxue's eyes fluttered.
"I'm not, I didn't!" Xia Qingrou immediately denied vehemently with a flushed face, mustering a fierce look, "I don't care about him, I'm just afraid of being implicated by him."
With that, she grabbed Shen Mochen's collar, "Spill it, what dangerous character have you offended? I, as your ex-girlfriend, won't be implicated, right?"
Han Muxue bit her lip, hesitating, "Captain… could you explain a bit?"
Xia Qingrou quickly caught on, "Right, Yanyan is also a big shot, if you could help him…"
"I'm not as powerful as you think…" Liu Chaoyan sighed gently, a hint of melancholy on her face, "And, the person Shen offended this time were too numerous."
Xia Qingrou was so angry she was gnashing her teeth, "What on earth did you do to offend so many people!"
Liu Chaoyan added, "Maybe because he stole some treasure."
"…did you really go and steal someone's treasure?" Xia Qingrou paused, remembering her previous phone call with Shen Mochen.
"Alright, the captain is joking, why would I go and steal someone's treasure?" Shen Mochen coughed, "I did indeed offend some old fossils, but I have backing too, Kajiena has already smoothed things over for me!"
"…Oh." Xia Qingrou's expression changed, instantly turning cold, a mocking smile appearing on her lips, "No wonder someone is so arrogant, daring to steal things, it turns out you've got the support of the impressive Miss Roman! Haha…"
