Chapter 39: V, Show Me Your 50k as a Sign of Sincerity

Shen Junzai couldn’t do anything, so he had to let the water army step in to help Rose Bunny.

Gu Nan also considered buying a water army, but was rejected by Yue Su.

Yue Su: [Don’t worry about it.]

Gu Nan: [That bastard Shen Junzai definitely hired water armies to manipulate the reviews! Every comment is bashing you! Jerk!]

Yue Su: [No need, just call the police, contact a lawyer, and sue Rose Bunny.]

She was righteous and had never bullied any of her classmates, so she could withstand any investigation.

Now that she thought about it, she rarely interacted with her college classmates, and they were all busy with their own lives.

There were indeed some conflicts, but they were all small things that weren’t worth bringing up.

Every word Rose Bunny said was a fabrication and slander.

Yue Su opened Weibo and started editing her post.

Yue Su: [I didn’t pay attention to you back then, and now you’ve come to me, I don’t have much money, but I can afford the legal fees @Rose Bunny]

She threatened to sue, but Rose Bunny didn’t panic and sent out three more Weibo posts to accuse her.

With the support of the water army, the heat stayed high.

Yue Su was once again trending for the accusation of “bullying a classmate.”

However, apart from the lawsuit post, Yue Su did not give any further responses.

Director Liang’s head was spinning, this was only the fifth day, and they’d already trended so many times!

Could they still continue the program in peace?

He directly sent Gu Nan a voice message that lasted sixty seconds.

“After this show ends, forget about the personal relationships, let’s break up! Just break up! Look at Yue Su, she’s trending eight times a day, don’t trending topics cost money…”

Yuan Jin, busy grilling rabbit meat, was completely unaware of the trending topics.

He called Yue Su, “Come over and eat, the rabbit is ready!”

He had swapped some mushrooms for a rack of ribs with the production crew, and after marinating them, they would be ready to roast.

“Have some grilled rabbit first, there will be ribs later. This seasoning is my secret recipe, I could even grill shoes and make them taste good.”

Yi Xia watched Yue Su and saw her calm expression.

“I know a lawyer who specializes in defamation cases. If you need, I can introduce him to you.”

Yue Su was taken aback, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.

It wasn’t just about a lawyer. By saying this in front of the live stream audience, Yi Xia was openly showing support for her.

At this point, it was dangerous to take sides.

Yue Su smiled wryly, “Mr. Yi, aren’t you afraid I might lose the case?”

Yi Xia remained calm, “I only trust my own judgment. I’ve been in the entertainment industry for nearly thirty years since debuting at fourteen. I know how to judge people.”

Yue Su lowered her eyelids, a pang of emotion rising in her throat, her eyes becoming moist.

Yuan Jin, who had no idea what was going on, swallowed the meat in his mouth and patted his chest.

“If you need help, just let me know. I’ve got a billion-dollar box office backing me, I’ve got connections.”

Yue Su couldn’t help but smile, wiping away the tears.

“For now, I don’t need anything, but when I do, I won’t be polite.”

[Yi Xia publicly declared support without even knowing the truth, isn’t that too blind?]

[Yuan Jin is even more impressive, he doesn’t even know what happened.]

[LOL, what’s the truth? Does Rose Bunny’s word count as the truth?]

[Yue Su already called the police, the truth will come out once the police investigate.]

[If she wasn’t guilty, why didn’t she clarify when Rose Bunny accused her back then?]

[Whoever makes the claim has to prove it. Why hasn’t Rose Bunny shown any evidence? What does he have besides his mouth?]

The online comments were a mess, but Yue Su was happily eating the rabbit meat.

Yuan Jin sat next to her, both he and Yao Yao munching happily with greasy mouths.

“Yuan Bro, you should open a barbecue restaurant, the business will definitely be booming.”

Yuan Jin smiled, “Sure, you want to invest? We can start a joint venture.”

Yue Su nodded, “Once the program pays me, I’ll invest in your shop.”

She had some fixed assets, but to ensure a good standard of living for herself and Yao Yao, she spent most of her monthly income, so there wasn’t much extra money.

The program’s payment wasn’t low, so investing in a barbecue restaurant should be enough.

[I’m suddenly curious, has Yue Su not earned money these past few years?]

[Probably not, besides having a kid, there’s been no news about her.]

[But she was famous, she should’ve made quite a bit before.]

Yuan Jin wiped his mouth and noticed how much Yue Su enjoyed the food, his eyes crinkling with a smile.

“There’s still half left, I’ll make some spicy stir-fried rabbit meat for you, make sure you eat more later.”

Yue Su casually said, “I don’t really like spicy, Mr. Fu, you can eat more.”

“…”

Realizing what she had just said, Yue Su regretted it, wishing she could sew her mouth shut.

Yuan Jin laughed, “So Mr. Fu likes spicy food, huh?”

Fu Xijin leisurely wiped his hands and cast a glance at Yue Su, then gave a hum.

Yue Su wondered if she should explain, but feared she’d make things worse, so she stayed silent.

Just then, Jiang Wanti came over, shifting everyone’s attention.

“Yue Su.”

Yue Su looked up, her expression unchanged, “Is there something?”

Jiang Wanti asked with concern, “Did you see the trending topic? I mean, your trending topic.”

“Thanks for your concern, I saw it.”

Jiang Wanti secretly felt excited. She admitted she was looking forward to seeing Yue Su’s downfall.

It was impossible for her to genuinely care about Yue Su.

However, Yue Su’s response was unexpectedly calm, leaving her with a sense of frustration.

“I can talk to Director Liang. Do you want to pause recording and handle your personal matters first?”

“No need.”

Jiang Wanti bit her lip, “Why? It’s not a small matter, being on trending will definitely affect you.”

“Teacher Jiang.” Yue Su called her.

“Hmm?”

Yue Su stared at her and asked, “Do you have a crush on me?”

Jiang Wanti turned pale with anger. Do I look like I have a crush on you?

Yue Su shrugged, “Stop thinking about it. I like men.”

Jiang Wanti’s face turned red, “I don’t like women, I’m just concerned about you. You’re preparing to make a comeback, and now there’s a scandal, what will you do in the future?”

Yue Su: “Take it step by step. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll die halfway.”

Her nonchalant attitude made Jiang Wanti feel so frustrated she could barely hold it in.

“I’m doing this for you.”

Yue Su glanced at her, “Really? Show me your 50k as a sign of sincerity.”

Jiang Wanti: “…”

They weren’t on the same page. She shouldn’t have meddled.

“Since you don’t care, then forget it.”

[What’s up with Yue Su’s attitude?]

[We were trying to be concerned about her, and she was so sarcastic.]

[Come on, yesterday she liked the gossip about Yue Su, she’d rather see her downfall than support her.]

Yi Xia stepped in to smooth things over: “Wanti, come eat with us?”

Jiang Wanti smiled and politely refused: “No, I don’t have the money to join you. I’m going to make some mushroom soup for Mr. Shen and have dinner with him.”

Yi Xia stopped looking at her and didn’t say anything more.

At that moment, Gu Nan sent another message to Yue Su.

Gu Nan: [Damn, you won’t believe what I’ve found!]

Gu Nan: [This Rose Bunny is actually a guy! [Image][Image]]

Gu Nan: [What a pervert, he’s been blackmailing you online and pretending to be a girl to get people to send him gifts!]
