Translator: CTCTRANS Editor: CTCTRANS

Qi Wu was not affected by the contestants’ anxious chatter.

However, she suddenly turned around and looked behind her.

She caught Tong Fei off-guard as she glared at Qi Wu with a sinister glint in her eyes.

Tong Fei did not expect Qi Wu to suddenly turn around and look her straight in the eyes.

However, at the thought that after tonight, Qi Wu’s reputation would be ruined to the point where she would be kicked out of the industry just like Tong Luo back then, Tong Fei could not help but feel smug.

Hence, she glared back at Qi Wu.

Qi Wu ignored her and coldly looked away.

“What’s wrong?” Tong Luo softly asked.

Qi Wu shook her head. “Nothing.”

The contestants returned to their dorms to rest early that evening to prepare for the next day’s events.

Coincidentally, the second episode of the “Rookie Assembly” was being broadcast that evening.

It continued to garner positive viewer ratings, maintaining the show’s momentum.

Shortly after the second episode ended, a prominent social media influencer posted an exposé on Qi Wu.

Breaking News Daily V: Who is Angel from the recent hit talent show “Rookie Assembly “? Here’s the truth about her.

After it was published, it swiftly went viral, appearing on trending topics on all social media platforms.

‘The True Colors of the Angel.’

‘Angel, an Industry Plant with a Sugar Daddy.’

Those were the two most popular headlines about the subject with many people commenting on it.

‘For real? She hasn’t even debuted. How is she doomed already?’

‘I thought it was possible when I saw how popular she is, but it’s actually a sugar daddy. No wonder.’

‘Everybody’s so creative. Beauty is enough to make Qi Wu famous, but Song Qi is in charge of “Rookie Assembly”. She would’ve been kicked out if she’s not good enough.’

‘The article had no concrete proof, so I won’t say anything for now.’

‘Off-topic but I envy that sugar daddy.’

‘Same. I’m in love with her face. Stay away from her already!’

With the help of bots, the number of comments pushed the articles on Qi Wu’s dirty laundry to be the number 1 trending topic.

As no one really knew what Qi Wu was like, the fans Qi Wu attracted through her beauty swiftly abandoned her.

There were only a small number of comments from those who were willing to defend her.

What Tong Luo was worried about finally happened.

When she saw the news about Qi Wu’s sugar daddy, she immediately told Qi Wu about the viral article. “It’s the Tong family. They’ve made their move.”

Tong Luo gritted her teeth.

It was the same old method. It felt like the same nightmare from eight years ago.

However, her anger was even stronger than it was eight years ago.

Eight years ago, she was powerless and was left to suffer by herself. She was stronger and would no longer drown in the pain of the past.

Her fury was greater this time because this was just a repeat of the incident, but it was now directed at her dearest friend.

Tong Luo turned to Qi Wu and promised, “I have some evidence of their deeds. I won’t let them hurt you without being punished.”

However, Qi Wu did not react to the news. She could not even be bothered to read the article.

She grabbed Tong Luo with one hand. “Come back.”

While she sounded calm without a single trace of solemnity, it still caused Tong Luo’s to die down.

She calmed down.

Qi Wu stretched out a hand and carefully tucked the loose strands of hair behind Tong Luo’s ears.

“Remember what I said? They will reap what they sow.”

Her words were like a prophecy.

When Chang Xun saw the articles, he instantly assumed Qi Wu and Jin Si’s relationship had finally been discovered.

However, he soon choked on his saliva when he realized what he had thought.

“Jin Si is no sugar daddy! As if that psychopath can find a partner,” he spat out.

He instantly called Qi Wu.

Qi Wu’s phone rang.

Tong Luo was instantly anxious. “Is it your debtholder?”

Qi Wu calmly picked up her phone and shook her head.

Then, she walked into the bathroom.

Tong Luo heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that it was not the debtholder. However, her fury rose once more at that thought.

What was going on with the sugar daddy?

How could he not say anything to Qi Wu when something this major has happened?

After Qi Wu walked into the bathroom, she answered the call.

“Chang Xun. ”

Her calm voice made Chang Xun heave a sigh of relief before saying, “I know about the trending articles. Good. You’re not letting them affect you.”

To those who had yet to formally start working in the entertainment industry, a small setback could traumatize them forever.

Chang Xun called Qi Wu because he was worried about that.

“I’ll deal with the articles, but you should think of any potential enemies you’ve made.”

The only people Qi Wu had come into contact with recently would be the contestants from “Rookie Assembly,” but with her personality…Chang Xun could not think of anyone who would be hostile against her.

“It’s Tong Fei,” Qi Wu blandly replied.

“The daughter of the Tong family who was bashed? I see. I’ll have the headlines dealt with in an hour, but you have to make a statement. I’ve registered an account for you. Remember to make a post.”

Chang Xun was very efficient. After the call ended, he immediately sent Qi Wu the details of the social media account created before contacting his old friends.

It had been a long time since he had something to do.

That was because no one would be foolish enough to target Jin Si. Hence, Chang Xun had nothing to do as his manager.

After the call ended, Qi Wu walked out of the bathroom.

She found Tong Luo standing at the door of the room. Their door was open, and Yin Yueyue was standing outside.

Upon seeing Qi Wu, Tong Luo shrugged in response. “She insisted on seeing you.”

Qi Wu calmly looked at Yin Yueyue.

Yin Yueyue mustered up her courage and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t let Tong

Fei get what she wants!”

Then, she left without saying anything.

The interaction seemed to have prompted a thought as Qi Wu blinked.

An hour later, the trending topic about Qi Wu had shifted lower down the list with bigger news soaking up the attention the articles had enjoyed. Those overly obvious fake comments had also been filtered out. If someone clicked into the account, they would find that those accounts had been deleted.

Tong Fei did not spend too long celebrating before she realized that something was wrong.

“What’s going on?” she screamed. “Where are the hate comments? Why isn’t Qi Wu’s scandal the top trending topic?”

Tong Fei hurriedly called her father.

“Dad, what happened? Where’s the dirt on Qi Wu?”

“I didn’t expect this to happen either. It’s very likely that she does have a backer but we…just couldn’t dig up their name,” he darkly replied..
