“Impossible.”
Tong Fei’s eyes widened in astonishment as she muttered, “This is impossible.
How can she be better…”
She did not finish her sentence, but the upset in her voice was audible.
“Dad, I don’t care! You have to help me. I can’t lose to Qi Wu!”
Tong Fei did not care about anything else.
She only knew that if losing here meant she would have suffered an absolute defeat.
“If even the Tong family can’t find out who this backer is, then she…” Her father sounded troubled.
“Why don’t we just let it go this time before things get out of…”
As someone who led the Tong family to where it was now, Tong Fei’s father was not stupid.
After he found out that the dirt on Qi Wu had been deleted, he knew that something was wrong. The best thing to do was to cut their losses.
However, Tong Fei did not think the same because she was extremely selfish and only cared about herself.
“How can we leave this be? We can’t quit!”
There was a hint of hysteria in her voice.
When Tong Fei thought of Qi Wu’s mocking attitude toward her and the slap that humiliated her in front of Shen Xi and got her kicked out of the class, she found the anger unbearable.
Unbeknownst to her, there was an even greater catastrophe waiting for her while she threw a fit.
Half an hour after Qi Wu’s scandal was removed as a trending topic, Yin Yueyue, a contestant in “Rookie Assembly,” posted a recording on her social media account.
It was the recording from when she was eavesdropping on Tong Fei’s conversation with her father. Yin Yueyue did not even edit it and just left the recording as is.
However, this helped in showcasing Tong Fei’s true nature.
Rookie-Yin Yueyue: Justice will prevail.
In just over 10 minutes after the recording was uploaded, it went viral.
It also went viral just through the power of the masses.
‘After listening to the recording, my mind has been shattered.’
‘Tong Fei was evil enough in the first 2 episodes. I didn’t expect her to be even more vicious. Out! Out!’
‘We must protect the Angel. Demons, begone!’
‘It makes me feel so bad for the first victim, Tong Luo. She was only 10 at the time when everyone abandoned her.’
‘Tong Luo finally has a chance to make a comeback, and there are still haters jumping around. I really feel sorry for her.’
When Chang Xun found out about the recording, he was stunned.
Was he blessed? The assist came out of nowhere. He did not even need to look for the evidence himself.
Deep in his heart, Chang Xun thanked Yin Yueyue and immediately used his connections to get Yin Yueyue’s post boosted.
Tong Luo had been scrolling through social media, so she immediately saw Yin Yuevue’s post. She listened to the entire recording.
She had not expected Yin Yueyue to be so brave.
With this recording, no matter what the Tong family claimed, no one would believe them.
For a moment, Tong Luo shot a conflicted look at Qi Wu, who was sitting by her bed and solemnly staring at her phone.
Perhaps she was just that kind of person.
She was someone who could make a paranoid person relax, cheer up a closed-off person, and push the cowardly to be brave for once…
After all, who could refuse a star shining brightly down on them?
As Tong Luo looked at Qi Wu, Qi Wu suddenly looked up and called out, “Tong
Luo.”
“What’s wrong?” Tong Luo dazedly asked.
“How do I post on social media?”
There was an obvious hint of distress in her voice.
Tong Luo was speechless.
Had Qi Wu been sitting there for 30 minutes just trying to figure out how to post on social media?
There was an exasperated tilt of Tong Luo’s lips. Then, she sat beside Qi Wu and taught her how to make a post.
Actually, Qi Wu had forgotten what Chang Xun told her to do the moment she clicked on the app because the app’s recommendations were so interesting.
As someone who was intensely curious about everything in this world, Qi Wu could not refuse those recommendations.
By the time she snapped out of her internet addiction and remembered what Chang Xun told her to do, 30 minutes had passed.
She quickly posted her first social media post.
QiWu:
Tong Luo had watched her post, and it rendered her speechless.
For some reason, that emoticon looked rather mocking.
She did not just stay idle either. She picked up her phone and shared Qi Wu’s post with an additional comment.
Actress Tong Luo: Angel is here!
Tong Luo’s account had been abandoned for years, but with her appearance in Rookie Assembly, many of her fans followed her again. Of course, she also attracted haters.
Just as the haters thought it was their time to shine, they realized that Tong Luo’s first post after her comeback was not about herself.
With the help of Tong Luo’s post, people soon found Qi Wu’s account and followed her.
Qi Wu’s fans began crying in her comments about how bad they felt for her while also begging for a selfie.
After Tong Luo shared the post, she realized she had been added to a new chat
group.
The group consisted of her, Jiang Xuxu, Ke Lu, Tan Song, Jiang Yiran, and even Qin Jiayan.
Everyone who had been added to the group was visibly confused.
This was especially so for Jiang Yiran. He was already impatiently spamming the chat.
Jiang Yiran: What do you want? I’m busy catching up on that evil woman’s gossip!
Jiang Xuxu: Call another woman evil again and I’ll kick you out!
They then began to crack jokes at each other.
However, they were basically discussing Qi Wu’s scandal.
After a while, Jiang Xuxu suddenly tagged Tong Luo.
Jiang Xuxu: @Tong Luo, is she next to you? She has always felt so outdated that I never dared add her on the messaging app. Add her to the group.
Tong Luo:
In that case, she was actually the first to add Qi Wu on the app.
As she suppressed the joy in her heart, Tong Luo added Qi Wu to the group.
The moment Qi Wu was added, the group immediately stopped arguing like immature kids and made peace with each other.
Jiang Xuxu: You’re finally here, Sweetie. My heart aches for you. This disaster came out of nowhere…
Ke Lu: Tong Fei deserves it.
Tan Song: Don’t take it to heart. She deserved it.
Qin Jiayan: …we can play a few rounds if you’re sad.
Jiang Yiran: Huh?
Jiang Yiran just did not understand the group’s mindset and thought to himself, Am I the only sane person in this group?
Qi Wu blinked as she read the chat.
Then, a faint smile appeared on her face as she replied to the messages.
Wu: It’s okay, I didn’t read it.
Tong Luo’s lips twitched when she read the reply.
The whole fiasco only lasted 3 hours. During that time, Qi Wu only spent 30 minutes on her phone, and it was because she was trying to figure out how to make a post.
The calmer Qi Wu was, the faster the scandal was resolved. She did not even need to do anything.
Tong Luo suddenly felt a pang of unease at that thought. She had to show it off somehow or she would be quite upset..
