Chapter 275 - The Initiator (1/2)
As the influence of the video was getting bigger and bigger, some people even went to the Shen Company to demonstrate.
“Boss, the police have come. They are keeping order outside the building.” Shen II hurried in. “Obviously, the demonstrators are paid to come here.”
Shen Xinglan closed the document and said, “I’m not surprised. Bai Yongwei is up to his old tricks. Since the police came, let them handle it.”
“Also…” Shen I looked at Shen Xinglan’s face and said cautiously, “Little Demon called me and said someone was sensationalizing it on the Internet and they mentioned Miss A Miao and Yaya.”
Shen Xinglan’s face darkened upon hearing this. He moved the mouse and began to search for the web page. When he saw the comments, his eyes became ice-cold.
“Call Lil Xi.”
Meanwhile, A Miao saw the comments on the Internet as well. As she was about to file a complaint, she found they were deleted after refreshing the page.
When Shen Xinglan came back, she immediately asked, “Did Lil Xi hack those people’s computers? Good job!”
Seeing that her emotions were not affected by the comments, Shen Xinglan felt at ease. “Lil Xi not only hacked their computers. Since they are paid to discredit people, Lil Xi also posted their phone records on the Internet.”
“Huh?” A Miao’s mouth was wide open, “I want to see!”
As she expected, there was a bloody hurricane in the network. The online celebrities that used to dominate the rumors had become street mice. But it was not the end of the story because some stars were involved.
“The gossip of the male movie king and the female star turned out to be a piece of her own work!” A Miao said and sighed, “And this! Look.”
Shen Xinglan was not interested in these, but hearing her exciting voice, he sat down to take a look.
“The little fresh meat that often participated in reality shows actually has a secret affair with some female star. In order to divert the attention of the fans, he paid them to stir up his relationship with a new female singer.”
The rumor of Shen Xinglan’s video had been suppressed as a large number of fans began to denounce their idols. They changed so fast that the situation was getting worse and worse. In the next few days, A Miao paid special attention to the network news.
“Another one announced that he would go abroad for further study!” He Shishi came to gossip with A Miao this day. “Under these circumstances, he could still make an excuse and getaway. He must have a strong background that could keep him in the game. It is estimated that he will come back after the rumors subside.”
A Miao was playing with blocks with Yaya who was trying to stuff a square block into a round hole…
“I used to believe that happenings in the entertainment industry were exaggerated. It seems to be more terrible than I thought!”
He Shishi rolled her eyes at her. “It proves the fact that great trees are good for nothing but shade.”
For some stars, no matter what they said or did, no one dared to criticize them. Sometimes, when they acted in movies or worked as a judge, they could get high pay.
“These people all have backgrounds—they belong to powerful families, or they are supported by underground influences.”
“Then our Chu Bai will not be afraid of them!” A Miao nodded affirmatively as if Chu Bai was already a star…
You don’t say. What a coincidence!
“Ling Lang said a baby-food company invited Chu Bai to shoot an advertisement.” He Shishi poked Yaya, who was still trying to stuff the square block into the round hole. “Yaya! Do you want to shoot an advertisement?”
Yaya, “Ahahah!”
“Why is she angry?” He Shishi did not notice the shapes of the building blocks in her hand were incorrect.
“Wow, wow…” Yaya began to lose her temper, kicked the blocks aside, and threw the toy bucket at A Miao.
He Shishi was surprised. “Is her temper so bad?”
“You tell me!” A Miao became angry and put the toys away. “If you don’t want to play with them, I will put them away.”
When Yaya saw that her mom took away the toys instead of holding her, she pouted and cried even more loudly.
“What are you doing?” He Shishi took a look at A Miao as she picked up Yaya. “She is a baby. What could she know?”
Seeing Yaya in He Shishi’s arms glaring at her, A Miao smirked. “You underrate her. She is very clever!”
“Yaya, come play with me! Leave your mom alone.” He Shishi gave her limited edition wallet to the little girl. Yaya was attracted by the diamonds on the cover and tried to pluck them out as she sobbed.
“It’s fine. Let her do what she wants! They are durable.” He Shishi cleaned Yaya’s face and generously gave her the key bag.
A Miao said querulously, “If she can’t pluck them out, she will cry again.”
Sure enough, ten minutes later, Yaya smashed the wallet on He Shishi, and cried, pouting her little mouth.
“How capricious!” He Shishi laughed. “Fortunately, your father has a lot of money. Otherwise, who can endure you in the future?”
Shen Xinglan came in just then and his face sank on hearing this, “Why are you still here at this late hour?”
“…” He Shishi winced. It was just four o’clock in the afternoon! How could he say it was late.
She glanced at Shen Xinglan before picking up her purse and said, “I’ll get going then!”
“Ignore him. Stay and have dinner with us!” A Miao stopped her.
“I am not afraid of him!” He Shishi grinned. “I have a date at the bar. Would you like to come along? You haven’t gone out for some fun in a long time.”
Shen Xinglan, who was holding his spoiled daughter in his arms, cuddled his wife. “Only women who can’t get married go to those places. A Miao doesn’t need to.”
“…”
He Shishi sneered, “You are married. Let’s see if you can stay home and not go socializing.”
“I don’t.” Shen Xinglan lifted his chin.
He Shishi lifted her chin higher than his and retorted, “I don’t believe you!”
A Miao whispered, “He is telling the truth. He never engages in social activities.”
“…”
