Chapter 421: A Video Call
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The two trending scandal searches about Bai Lin that had soared overnight were quickly suppressed, clarified with a timeline put up and evidence presented. It was difficult for people not to believe that a professional team was operating behind this, but the evidence was indeed convincing. Soon, the public opinion on the internet about whether Bai Lin was being kept as a sugar baby changed.
At the same time, the account that posted the article had been thoroughly dug up. Someone claimed to have found the IP address of the account, which was near the recording location of Love Indicator.
This news quickly spread. In this show, the only person regardless of gender who had a conflict with Bai Lin was Chu Yi.
Although there was no concrete evidence to prove that the IP address was Chu
Yi’s, and there was no way to prove that the account was used by her, almost everyone except Chu Yi’s fans believed that the account was hers. That article was made up by Chu Yi to defame Bai Lin.
At the same time, a new voice appeared on the internet.
[Could it be that Chu Yi’s the one being a sugar baby…]
[D*mn, Bai Lin said “It’s not like you have no one” at the end of last night’s livestream. Chu Yi was so scared that she ran away. Could it be that she was referring to Chu Yi being kept as a mistress?!]
[Oh my god, could it be that Chu Yi was able to win the Best New Artist Award because of a shady deal? No wonder the other nominated actress posted a Weibo post with only a smiling emoticon that day.]
[It’s also quite strange. Chu Yi suddenly appeared at various gala events last year. She attended without any significant works, and there were already people who said the same back then.]
[Some people think that others will do the same thing after doing it themselves. Did she think that Bai Lin’s popularity was because of a sugar daddy since she got popular being supported by one? Is that why she posted such an article?]
Sheng Chuan did not sleep for almost the entire night. He took turns using three accounts, arguing with Chu Yi’s fans on Weibo, giving likes to those who clarified the situation, and adding to the fire of the rumor that Chu Yi was being kept as a sugar baby.
At the same time, he also watched a lot of trending searches and videos about Bai Lin. As he got to know Bai Lin better, he also tried to find evidence from those videos that she was his aunt, which was the small mole on the back of her neck.
After a night, however, he discovered something very strange.
Bai Lin’s most common hairstyle was a high ponytail. Logically speaking, such a hairstyle could hardly cover her neck, but it was rare to see the back of her neck in the videos. The only few shots available were saved by him and zoomed in repeatedly, but he could not see a mole there at all.
“No way… How could this be possible? Bai Lin isn’t my aunt?” Sheng Chuan was a little confused. He mumbled to himself as he put on his clothes, “That temper and personality, that face… If it’s just a coincidence …”
Sheng Chuan was startled when his phone rang.
It was a video call from Sheng Zhi.
“Hello, Second Uncle, good morning.” Sheng Chuan’s clothes hung loosely on his body as he bared his teeth and smiled at Sheng Zhi.
“Good my *ss! Is this how you do things? It’d be strange if I could feel good!
Why were you knocking on Bai Lin’s door in the middle of the night?!” Sheng Zhi was furious. Regardless of whether Bai Lin was really a child of the Sheng family, she was still a girl. A young man like Sheng Chuan had gone to her door in the middle of the night. Was that not ruining her reputation?
He woke up early in the morning and saw the trending searches. He also saw Chu Yi’s livestream recorded by the netizens, and then he saw the rumors on the internet that Bai Lin was being a sugar baby. He was so angry that he wanted to catch Sheng Chuan and beat him up.
“But if I can go to her room and talk to her, I’d have a chance to pick up her hair.” Sheng Chuan had been scolded by his aunt last night then by his second uncle this morning. He pouted and felt wronged.
Sheng Zhi looked at his aggrieved expression and was indifferent. “Don’t act with me, kid. There are still more than ten days. There are plenty of chances. How can you enter a lady’s room in the middle of the night? Can you bear the responsibility?! The Sheng family’s never taught you such manners!”
Sheng Chuan immediately stopped feeling wronged. “l was too anxious. It’s indeed my fault. By the way, Second Uncle, look into Chu Yi. She’s an actress on our show who always goes against my aunt. She did the livestream on purpose yesterday. See who’s backing her up that she’s so bold..”
