Chapter 122: Chapter 108: It’s One Thing to Be Stupid, But How Can You Be This Thoroughly Stupid
It could even be said that, aside from His Majesty and the Commander-in-Chief, who possessed the highest authority over the Main Brain, the Main Brain engineers from the Austin family were the ones closest to it! Therefore, it wasn’t hard to guess where Lin Zhenxiang had gotten her information!
To this day, Empress Yudola had not yet obtained the highest authority to control the Main Brain during her reign, which was largely due to the Austin family. If Lin Zhenxiang had aligned herself with the Austin family, it would be tantamount to standing in opposition to the Empress and Lady You! This would be highly detrimental to her future career in Star Network streaming!
Hua Yingying immediately pleaded with the Empress, "Your Majesty, please give Xiangxiang one more chance! She is still young, so moments of foolishness are inevitable! I will guide her well from now on and won’t let her make the same mistake again!"
"Since this involves the Austin family, it is inconvenient for me to intervene. His Majesty has already bypassed me and made his decision," Yudola said coldly. She paused for a moment, casting a dark, lingering look at Lin Zhenxiang.
"Speaking of which, Vice District Chief Zhao’s family from Zone 2 was also demoted to the Lower Star District to experience life there because of you. The newly appointed Vice District Chief Luo Xingyu has received orders from His Majesty to investigate you. You’ll have to figure out how to pass his scrutiny on your own."
Yudola’s hologram disappeared pitilessly. Lin Zhenxiang continued to face that direction and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lady Xin unhurriedly put away her Light Brain and exited the hospital room without a word. Hua Yingying walked her to the door and only returned after making sure she had gone far away.
Her eyes full of gratitude, Lin Zhenxiang thanked her. "Sister Ying, thank you for pleading for me just now."
"I didn’t do it just for you," Hua Yingying replied impassively. "Xiangxiang, I hope you will actually listen to my words from now on."
Lin Zhenxiang nodded, though a faint, obscure glint flashed in her eyes.
Hua Yingying issued her a stern warning. "If you still haven’t learned your lesson after all these incidents, then don’t blame me for not warning you beforehand. Unlike you, we need to support our families. I refuse to drag my team into some power struggle along with you!"
She wondered if her manager was hinting at firing her. A surge of hatred spontaneously welled up in Lin Zhenxiang’s heart!
Seeing her silence and assuming she was genuinely reflecting on her mistakes, Hua Yingying sighed and softened her tone. "I’ll go ask around and see what kind of background this newly appointed Vice District Chief Luo has. Until then, do not act rashly. Do you understand?"
Lin Zhenxiang nodded obediently, yet the darkness within her heart spread unchecked!
After Hua Yingying left, she stayed alone in the hospital room, scrolling through forum posts and comments. Her mood sank to rock bottom. That Mrs. Bao, who had only been streaming for two days, was already on the verge of overshadowing her!
Soon, she noticed that the user [Chief Dan], wearing the badge "This Baby is Mrs. Bao’s First Fan," had outed himself in a thread as Mrs. Bao’s intern assistant. Struck by a sudden idea, Lin Zhenxiang once again turned a deaf ear to Hua Yingying’s warning and personally sent a private message to [Chief Dan].
"I’m also a fan of Mrs. Bao. I’m so jealous that you get to be her assistant!"
She was confident that with her influence, she would definitely catch that little assistant’s attention. However, her private message went unanswered, like a stone sinking into the ocean, and she received no reply even after a long wait.
In reality, after Ke Dancheng, under the username [Chief Dan], revealed his identity as Mrs. Bao’s intern assistant, many people sent him private messages. His personal profile instantly gained thousands of followers, and the number was still climbing!
He had revealed his identity with Shu Yao’s permission. Because he had promised the group that he would occasionally secure perks for everyone, many people hadn’t believed him. To establish his credibility, he had asked for Shu Yao’s opinion before confessing his status as an intern assistant to the group. He explained to the members that he had decided to create the fan group because he wanted to find something to do and earn the chance to become an official assistant as soon as possible.
The sudden surge of attention left him a bit flustered at first. He quickly cut through the clutter, rejecting all private friend requests and filtering out any meaningless private messages.
Just then, a familiar username caught his eye: [Xiangxiang Loves Cooking].
This was Lin Zhenxiang’s username for her Star Network stream. Previously, Lin Zhenxiang had also been one of the streamers Ke Dancheng followed. He hadn’t expected her to follow him back and even send him a private message!
Being noticed by a major streamer left Ke Dancheng feeling somewhat flattered. However, he was also keenly aware that Lin Zhenxiang choosing to establish contact with him at this specific time likely carried some ulterior motive.
Ke Dancheng opened the private message, which contained two texts:
"I’m also a fan of Mrs. Bao. I’m so jealous that you get to be her assistant!
"So you’re a Xiang fan too! I didn’t notice you before, sorry about that!"
