Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Ah! Sister Pei Ge, you’re famous now! Oh, my gosh! You’re so awesome for appearing on the news today!”

Still half asleep, the loud, excited voice in her ear made her frown.

“What’s the racket this early in the morning?”

She tossed her phone to the side.

“Hello, hello! Are you still there?”

The girl was still talking. Even though the phone was far from her ear now, she could still hear Qin Qitong’s loud voice.

Having been disturbed from her sleep, she grabbed her phone grumpily.

“I’m still sleeping. What matters do you have...” she muttered, yawning.

“What else could be it?! Search your name and my cousin online! You two are now online celebrities! Ha ha! You’ve been hailed as a real-life Cinderella!” the girl excitedly chattered.

Alas, no matter how excited she was, the one she was talking to was still half asleep.

“En... en...” The other nodded dismissively, yawning with her eyes shut.

“Hello! Are you listening to me?”

At this point, the girl going gaga over the online news finally realized that the person over the phone was not paying attention to her.

“En? Ha!” Jolted awake by the girl’s loud voice, Pei Ge opened her eyes and yawned.

Sigh ... Having chatted late into the night with her mom yesterday, she only wanted to sleep now!

“Stop yawning already. How can you still sleep at this time?”

If one could only appear before the other right now, she would definitely grab her shoulders to shake her awake.

” Sigh

... If you have something, just say it. When you’re done, I’ll go back to sleep.”

Pei Ge closed her eyes again after saying that, as if intending to make good with her words.

“...” The girl was left speechless by that. How many times had she said it earlier, yet this woman on the other end had the nerve to ask her what had happened?

With that, she went straight to the point.

“The whole world knows that you’re dating my cousin now! You’ve become an internet sensation, and it happened overnight! Not only are you famous, you’re also the talk of the town! At this moment, everyone is talking about you in real life and online.”

Pei Ge’s lips twitched when she heard that, her eyes full of disbelief.

“Stop joking around this early in the morning—” She started to say, but before she could finish, the other cut her off.

“Why would I joke around with you? If you don’t believe it, look at your seldom used Weibo account! After that, you’ll know whether I’m lying or not!”

Her head cleared up instantly at the girl’s suggestion.

Even though she still had doubts regarding the girl’s words, she still decisively hung up the call and logged out of her private account and logged on to her main account, which had been inactive for almost six months.

She was stunned the moment she logged in.

Looking at the number of followers, reads, mentions, and replies, she finally understood that the girl’s words were not lies!

She stared at the messages on her phone in shock. Swallowing her saliva, she was unable to wrap her mind around it.

What has happened... to the world?

Was she... actually famous? It could not be, could it?

Confused, she went to the main page of her Weibo account. Looking at the first post, which had been read hundreds of thousand of times, she opened the comments section.

[Wow! This woman is amazing! She actually snagged that cold-hearted CEO; she has my respect!]

[Tsk! Isn’t it all because of her looks? If not for her pretty face, how would she catch young master Ji’s eyes!]

[That doesn’t sound right; I don’t think he’s that shallow!]

[Sister, you’re so pretty—perfect for Mr. Ji! You must stay together forever!]

...

She went Sparta when she read the comments.

W-What exactly happened? Why were all these people leaving comments on her inactive Weibo account?

Pursing her lips as she took in the positive and negative comments, she frowned deeply. She had never encountered something like this before; hence, she did not know if this was a good or a bad thing.

“What’s going on...” she wondered. She then thought of the news that Qin Qitong had told her about.

She quickly scrolled to the section of the hottest posts on Weibo and saw that the most-searched post was her and Ji Ziming’s relationship.

[PDA! The daily life of the Ji Group’s CEO and his Cinderella girlfriend!]

She blinked furiously. After staring at the words for a while, she finally took in the title ‘Cinderella girlfriend’.

Taking a deep breath, she opened the post.

When she saw that her photos with the man were on public display, she took another deep breath and proceeded to read the post’s content.
