Faced with the concern from all the employees, Chacha naturally smiled and nodded, saying “I’m fine” and “Don’t worry”, repeating it several times.
Everyone saw that she wasn’t much different from usual and believed that she was fine. One of the secretaries poured her a cup of tea to help her get over the shock, and then everyone returned to their respective workstation.
Chacha went back to her office, turned on the laptop, and drank a few sips of tea to get rid of the alcohol smell.
Once the laptop was on, she searched for news about her on the Internet, and sure enough, it was being hotly discussed on all major platforms.
Particularly the part after Wei Siyun was injured. She collapsed in a bench and loudly cursed her ‘daughter’, while the ‘daughter’ called for the police and ambulance, and thanked the people who helped them.
This contrast was the essence.
Chen Cha was quite well-known online and it’s no exaggeration to say that she’s a super internet celebrity. No matter what she does, if it was caught on camera, it would easily spark discussion.
In this case, the impact had no fictitious elements. The matter involved attempted murder and was also related to Wei Siyun, her ‘mother’ who had once smeared her name.
Just mentioning each thing individually would make people’s imagination run wild, let alone putting them together. With millions of clicks + millions of clicks, it’s difficult for the matter not to be popular.
The last time authoritative media exposed Wei Siyun and the others for mistreating Chen Cha when she was a child, there were still many who believed that parents were always right. Even if it harms the child, it must still be out of ‘love’. They helped speak up for Wei Siyun but all of their comments were deleted.
There were also some people who feel that it might not necessarily be the case, since authoritative media and the nanny might’ve also been bribed. This type of people tends to be skeptical about things on the Internet. That’s to say, they don’t believe in anything and just look at everything casually.
But this time they saw the video taken by a passerby and they believe that it was authentic. Moreover, the incident occurred suddenly. The video started about five minutes before it all happened.
Because of Chen Cha’s quick reaction, the other assailant panicked and missed Wei Siyun’s vital organs. He also didn’t manage to stab Wei Siyun several times, and instead fled but was subdued by the crowd.
Afterwards, Chen Cha behaved maturely and calmly. She called the police and ambulance, comforted the injured Wei Siyun, and then bought hot drinks for the helpful citizens whose hands were a little stiff from the cold, showing sensibility that doesn’t match her age.
If Chen Cha hadn’t been there, Wei Siyun might not have survived.
On the contrary, Wei Siyun, the mother, even kept saying things like giving birth to BBQ pork would have been better than giving birth to her daughter[1]an expression used as a curse to one’s child, a way of scolding one’s child as useless.
Even the dumbest person could tell who was good and who was bad.
Now everyone believed that Wei Siyun and the others must have mistreated the young Chen Cha before, that’s why Chen Cha was force to mature early.
With no affection, no love, and no arms to embrace to act like a spoiled child, naturally one could only mature as soon as possible and carve out a path for oneself.
So everyone on Weibo sided with Chen Cha, and Wei Siyun was scolded once again.
Because of this incident, Chacha’s followers grew explosively, which she was most happy to see. Although she didn’t often use Weibo, the higher her reputation, the easier it would be for her to do certain things.
Even if she didn’t do anything and some day she becomes crazy, useless, or disabled, with such an account, she could still have a chance to make a comeback.
Wei Siyun was quite innocent this time. She was scolding her real daughter ‘Chen Chacha’, not her fake daughter ‘Chen Cha’.
There were also some netizens who always focus on things that were different from the crowd.
These unconventional netizens talked about how parents get along with their children, their own experiences of being hurt as children, how much society and nation play a role, popular science[2]slang meaning to help someone understand something, and even analyzing Wei Siyun’s way of thinking, standing out among the crowd.
【Am I the only one who noticed that when Chacha was thanking the crowd, Student School Grass helped her carry the drinks? So School Grass is a loyal dog character?】
【My goodness, Chacha, Scumbag Wei (Chacha’s mother), and Student School Grass who’s suspected to be Chacha’s boyfriend have gathered together. It’s obviously meeting the parents!】
【I agree with the conjecture that it’s a meeting with the parents. Let me make another bold guess, Chacha has been mistreated as a child, and even when she’s already grown up, her family members were still trying to control her. Although Chacha was sad and hurt for breaking away from her family, she was moved by School Grass’s loyal dog character (For the time being, I think it’s a loyal dog character). She gradually opened her heart and wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. After deciding to be together for a lifetime, Chacha still couldn’t help but think of her family. Although she suffered a lot of hurt at home, it was human nature to hope to get the love and blessings of her parents, so Chacha took School Grass to see a certain Wei. She didn’t expect for them to be attacked, but a certain Wei didn’t change her attitude and still scolded Chacha…… Oh my goodness, it’s so upsetting.】
A bunch of people liked this long comment and made various expressions such as 【The truth is out】, 【Are you Conan’s successor?】, 【Please accept my kneel】, and so on.
Chacha really wanted to give the other person the Most ‘Outstanding’ Award for their wild imagination.
A large number of Chacha’s Weibo followers were waiting for her to make a post, so Chacha naturally made one to give them face.
【4:35:46 PM.
Chacha Loves Drinking Tea v: There’s no greater sorrow than the death of one’s heart.】
As she expected, the comment section exploded. The amount of comments, reposts, and likes it received grew explosively, achieving Weibo’s first record of one million reposts, one million comments, and one million likes.
Once this was done, Chacha gave the laptop to her assistant, Ding Puyu, and had him manage her account—— liking, following, reposting and interacting with others.
She usually uses this laptop to surf the Internet, occasionally listen to music, and watch movies, so there were no secrets in it.
Chacha turned around and contacted Jiao Yushi. She asked him, “Do you know anything about the Chen family? Like how many people are there, their preferences, habits, and so on.”
“I’ll ask around.”
Chacha smiled. “Then I’ll trouble you.”
“Although I’ve said it last time, I still have to say it again. It’s not appropriate to attack the Chen family at the moment.”
Chacha smiled and thanked him, then said, “Mmhmm, I know. Don’t worry about me, I have my own plan.”
Jiao Yushi hummed. “I’ll sort out the information and send it to your email tonight.”
At 9:30 in the evening, Chacha had just returned home. She turned on her other laptop and first went to see how Ding Puyu was managing her account.
She was dumbfounded.
Ding Puyu was simply skilled in acting and Weibo was his stage.
A follower asked, 【Chacha, you’ve been hurt so much, why do you still want to see that person? She definitely has no good intentions.】
‘Chacha Loves Drinking Tea’ replied, 【Although I’ve been hurt before, I still hope that my mother will love me even a bit. Just a tiny bit is enough. My favorite thing to do when I was a child was to look at the trees outside the window, no matter in school or at home. I watch as their leaves fall, withered, and grow again. I always hope that my parents’ feelings towards me can be like trees. After their leaves fall and withered, new and positive feelings will grow with the arrival of spring.】
【Follower: Whimper, Chacha is so pitiful.】
Followers A, B, C and D burst into tears.
【Follower: Chacha, just pretend that you have no family from now on. Stop looking for them, stop being sad for them, and stop having expectations for them. I know it’s going to be sad, but it’s better than being hurt by them over and over again.】
‘Chacha Loves Drinking Tea’ replied, 【Mm, my heart has already died. It was too many disappointments too many times that I can no longer have expectations for them.】
Followers E, F, G and H burst into tears.
Chacha: “……”
She still wanted to go to the hospital to see Wei Siyun tomorrow. How could she go now?
Chacha looked up and saw the ceiling and the chandelier above. There’s no need to mention that the lighting was quite beautiful. Chacha admired it for a while and then logged into her email.
About ten minutes ago, Jiao Yushi had sent her the compiled information about the Chen family.
Chacha sent him a thank you message, and he replied instantly, 【Okay, I’ll treat you to dinner.】
Chacha: “……”
She replied, 【This is the first time I’ve seen someone being thanked offer to treat. Isn’t it the opposite?】
【Jiao Yushi: I want to.】
【Chacha: Haha, okay.】
【Jiao Yushi: En, tomorrow at 5 pm. Is that okay?】
【Chacha: Yes.】
After replying to him, Chacha began to look at the document Jiao Yushi sent over.
The structure of the Chen family wasn’t difficult. Grandpa and Grandma Chen have two children, one male and one female. The female got married and was living with her husband’s family, while the male stayed at home, inherited the family business, and successfully married a lady from a well-matched family and have two children, both of whom have their own careers.
Jiao Yushi carefully organized, subdivided, and made notes on their properties in another document.
The youngest members of the family’s main branch were Chen Yingge and Chen Chacha, both of whom were unmarried.
The aunt who got married had an only daughter named Lu Caiwei. She’s currently studying Economics at Chengda University and was in her third year. She’s an old member of the opera club and was also the vice president.
There weren’t many direct relatives.
Chacha set Lu Caiwei as her target. It was easiest and most convenient to get close to her. After all, they were both studying at Chengda University.
Moreover, Lu Caiwei was a member of a club, and it would seem natural for Chacha to join. It wouldn’t make the other person think that she was deliberately approaching her.
The only trouble was that Chacha would get busier.
But for the sake of revenge, it was no problem. It’s just sleeping for four hours a day. It’s not like she had never experienced that kind of thing before.
She’s used to it.
There happened to be a class the next day. Once it was finished,
Chacha received all sorts of concerns and gossip from her classmates.
But she didn’t reveal any extra information and dealt with it in a gentle and courteous manner, which made her classmates, who had only met her a few times, feel that she was indeed an innocent, gentle and strong girl.
Chacha had never been to the opera club before, so Jiao Yushi volunteered to take her there.
On the way, she asked, “How do you know the way?”
“There are many ways to know, and a map is one of them.”
She has come to understand and no longer exposed her intelligence by asking more questions. Of course, she didn’t think her IQ was low, but it’s just not high enough to reach the level of a genius. She could live a normal life and earn a small amount of money.
The door of the opera club was open. Chacha and Jiao Yushi walked passed it and saw a lot of props inside.
There was no one around at this time expect for a wall spider on the right side of the room and a girl dressed in a vampire costume making a ‘In the name of the moon, I will punish you!’ pose in front of the full-length mirror, shouting, “You thought your first kiss would be Jojo, but it was I, Cain~”
Chacha: “……”
A vampire Earl Cain along with a Sailor Moon pose and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure’s line, was the girl playing a mix-and-match game?
