Through the online live stream, Yang Xi gained tens of millions of new fans with a single song about stars. The next day, Su Qiuyun's WeChat Moments exploded once again. Yet, no matter how many people tagged her in their posts, she ignored them completely. Concerned that her unintentional actions might bring trouble upon herself, she preferred her current quiet life.
