My Idol System: An Idol, But Also A Savior Chapter 174: Joshua’s Birthday

[Joshua, Joshua, let deal with that bunch online. Those bastards are getting more and more infuriating!]

[I’ll ban all of them from social dia!]

The mont Joshua opened his phone, he saw a flood of ssages from Nine.

He lowered his eyes and replied slowly.

MyJ: [No need. Extre fortune gives way to decline. As long as nothing truly affects my reputation yet, we should stay quiet and watch how things unfold.]

Every ti Joshua calmly explained things like this, Nine felt as though he had never truly understood him.

Well, actually, it wasn’t hard to understand. The only people who could stir Joshua’s emotions were those he loved, or those who loved him.

Right now, Joshua could even read antis’ comnts with an expressionless face and feel nothing at all.

Nine could only reply: [In a week, they’ll know what pain is—courtesy of !]

Joshua smiled faintly. When the others returned to the room and saw that smile, they couldn’t help but relax a little as well.

In truth, online disputes were common and never-ending. They were just always worried about Joshua.

As soon as Luther ca in, he lunged over to Joshua’s side and said cheerfully, "So how was it? Did the audition go well? Did you get scolded?"

Leonard added coldly, "If Lance dared to scold you, I’ll beat him up. Just tell the truth."

Joshua felt a bit helpless. "Lance isn’t that scary. And everything went fine. Now we’re just waiting for confirmation."

During this period, they naturally had to hurry and finish filming the MV and the promotional stages.

In the midst of all this, Joshua’s birthday drew closer, coincidentally falling the day before the cast list for Lance’s new film was announced.

A birthday, of course, called for a livestream.

The waiting room had just been opened. The screen was still completely dark, yet the fans were already in an uproar. At this mont, Joshua sat in the center of the room. Behind him, the space had been lavishly decorated with balloons and shimring strears. In front of him, on the table, sat a rather large cake—pink, snow-peach flavored.

Joshua subconsciously licked his lips and glanced toward the cara at the side, wondering when the livestream would officially begin.

But at that very mont, the fans had already arrived.

[Just opened my eyes and saw Joshua’s beautiful face. I’m not sleeping tonight!]

[Aaaa, those eyes are way too pretty, still so bright and sparkling! Joshua, please look over here again!]

[Happy birthday, Joshua.]

[joshua happy birthday]

[So that ans we can hug Joshua at the next fan sign?]

[hahaha, everyone still rembers that? Andy is really about to cry.]

[Where’s Brother Wolf? Please say sothing!]

[Joshua is adorable at his new age.]

"Hello everyone, we et again," Joshua said softly, smiling. "Did you miss ?"

[We did!!!! We missed you so much we’re going crazy!]

[That’s right, we rewatch the vlogs and fan edits every day.]

[Every day I dream about going to a fan sign again hahaha.]

[Happy birthday, Joshua~]

The comnts kept scrolling nonstop. Joshua began talking a bit about his work, naturally focusing on so interesting monts from filming the new album.

The fans excitedly pressed him for details about the album, but Joshua seriously crossed his arms. "I can’t reveal anything. Please be patient."

[Oh my god, even when he makes a serious face, I’m still in love. This is so frustrating!]

[Hahaha, we’re really beyond saving.]

"Ah, today I’ll be unboxing an album..."

[You’re about to release a new album and you’re unboxing the old one? CM really doesn’t know how to do marketing.]

[Now that you ntion it, when On! was first released, they didn’t even do a livestream album unboxing. They really don’t know how to tease fans at all.]

"I feel like with these hands, I could even unbox myself. Huh? Who do I most want to unbox? Of course, ..."

[LMAO, your teammates are going to be so sad, Joshua!]

[Anyone but Joshua, and please say it’s Leonard!]

[Hahaha]

Joshua looked at the comnts Elly had filtered out, thought for a mont, and finally said, "Then I’ll unbox four copies. Other than myself, I want one mber from each album, okay?"

[That makes sense. Love really should be shared equally, hahaha.]

[Joshua really is fair! But random albums are truly unfair to this extent.]

[The comnt above sounds very experienced.]

[Let admit it: as soone whose hands can never pull their bias, I know all too well the tricks of these random albums.]

[This is when you find out which CP the heavens are really blessing.]

[Hahaha.]

Joshua picked up the first album and said softly, "For the first album, I hope I’ll pull the leader."

[The leader again! I know Joshua has favoritism toward Henry, but I can’t prove it!]

[Maybe he’s being threatened...]

[Hey, don’t slander my leader!]

[Bless our Honey!]

[Don’t use CP nas here!]

To add so drama, Joshua simply flipped the card face down before pulling it out.

[The mont I see the back, I already know whether it’s Joshua’s card or not.]

"Everyone, take a guess—who do you think it is..."

As Joshua spoke, he flipped it over. In the picture, Luther was wearing his signature gold-rimd glasses, a faint smile at the corner of his lips. He looked like a card straight out of a fantasy story, and Luther would definitely be an elf.

Joshua thought silently.

[Aaaa, Joshua is smiling. Oh my god.]

[Don’t look at the card and smile like that, it’s really suspicious.]

[Hahaha, the best-friends pair wins again!]

Joshua laughed. "Looks like I’m getting dodged just like everyone else."

With that, he pulled out the second card—it was still Luther. The third card was a unit card.

Joshua held it up to the cara. "Look, Leonard and Justin. Very strong brotherly vibes."

[Hahaha, Joshua says that without even blushing. Look at those fake smiles on the two of them.]

[Wow, are you guys not even trying to maintain ShineOn’s united image anymore? Joshua is clearly trying so hard.]

Joshua glanced at the scrolling comnts and only found them amusing.

He continued opening the other albums. In the end, Joshua pulled three Luthers. The last album finally gave him himself, and among all the unit cards, none included him.

In the end, Joshua couldn’t help but clutch his head in helplessness. Finally, he looked up at the screen and gave a thumbs-up. "Polaris, you guys are truly top-tier."

[Hahaha, Joshua finally knows what despair feels like!]

[What despair? Luther’s face is beautiful enough.]

[Three Luthers and one Joshua—no unit card, but I’m confident no one nad PP is unhappy today.]

[Hahaha, it really is fate.]

Joshua poked at the cards on the table a bit. By now, he was getting a little sleepy. But there were still thirty minutes left before it was ti to blow out the candles.

Just then, a sudden burst of noise ca from outside. Joshua couldn’t help but flinch slightly, and at the sa ti, the cara turned outward.

The comnts paused for a mont, then erupted into laughter.

[Hahaha, hahaha, are these looks so kind of early Halloween? I’m dying.]

[What is Leonard wearing? A silly candy bread or sothing?]

With the appearance of the other mbers, the number of viewers in the livestream room surged dramatically, and the comnts started to lag.

"Joshua blowing out the candles—of course ShineOn can’t be missing!" Luther said excitedly, lunging straight toward Joshua.
