Chapter 107 - I’ll Take Responsibility for What I Said

In Jiang Xun’s opinion, she would say that the zombies she killed in her previous life were a hundred times more horrifying and disgusting than these “zombies.” They didn’t scare her at all.

Jiang Xun even typed in the other person’s ID as a reply. She wasn’t afraid of them, but she still needed to mark them down for Merit Point farming purposes.

Some fans even went straight to the show’s official blog, trying to get the production team to make a decision for them.

[If Jiang Xun is spreading rumors like this, will you guys just stand by and watch?]

[Her rumors will also affect the production team’s reputation, right?]

[Will it be interesting for netizens who don’t know the truth to think that your guys have invited a real couple to come over and act out the script?]

Soon after, the official blog of “The Other Half’s Law” posted on Weibo, “The production team has carefully chosen and investigated the background and status of the guests. Everything in the program is left to the guests to do as they wish, and there is absolutely no part of the script or performance. @jiangxun, your words in your livestream have damaged the reputation of our show. If we don’t receive your apology before the end of today, we will proceed with legal procedures. The internet is not a lawless place. Livestreamers should also be cautious with their words and actions.”

[What are you talking to her for? Just sue her directly!]

[You thought that the effect of the hype was good a few times before. You must be addicted to the hype!]

Jiang Xun snorted coldly. She immediately replied on Weibo, “@theotherhalfslaw, I will take responsibility for what I said. The two of them are a couple. Either your team knew about it and deliberately hid it from the audience, or you’ve also been deceived by them. When the truth is revealed, please also ask your team to apologize to me.”

[Aaand there it is. Jiang Jiang has left, and Big Boss Xun is here.]

[Big Boss Xun: I never lie!]

[Big Boss Xun: I’m responsible for what I said!]

......

[Jiang “Messenger of Justice, Apologize to me, Mad Demon” Xun.]

[Big Boss Xun, you’ve gone too far. @jiangyuexi,@guxiaoze, do you dare come out and dispute her?]

*

When Yuexi and Xiaoze saw all this, they did not know how to react.

If they publicly denied it, Jiang Xun only needed to expose her identity to prove what she said. However, if Yuexi told Jiang Xun privately, it would be the same as sending the evidence directly to Jiang Xun.

She didn’t believe that Jiang Xun would keep her secret, either.

In other words, they were facing a Morton’s Fork situation, and so they still hadn’t decided on what to do.

When the production team saw Jiang Xun’s reply, they immediately contacted Jiang Xun’s manager, Wang Yicheng.

“If Jiang Xun doesn’t retract what she said and apologize to us, we will definitely go through legal procedures!” the staff said to Yicheng angrily and arrogantly.

Yicheng rolled his eyes. “Fine, you can sue her. Since Jiang Xun said that her words are true, then it must be true. She’s not afraid of you suing her.”

After saying that, Yicheng hung up the phone stubbornly.

It wasn’t that he trusted Jiang Xun, though—it was more that he trusted Qin Mufeng enough. With him around, even if the production team really dared to sue Jiang Xun, it seemed like they could definitely win.

However, Yicheng still had a headache. Why was Jiang Xun causing trouble without even informing him?

And even after stirring all this up, she didn’t tell him about it!

His head seriously hurt!

Yicheng then immediately contacted Qin Mufeng.

Seeing the production team voice out their reaction, the Jiang Yuexi and Gu Xiaoze shipping fans became even more adamant.

[You said you can take responsibility, so how are you going to do it? Show me the evidence First!]

[Without evidence, are you just saying that they’ve been lovers for a long time?]

While all of that was happening, Qin Mufeng suddenly replied to the Weibo post from “The Other Half’s Law” requesting Jiang Xun to apologize. “I can prove that Jiang Yuexi and Gu Xiaoze are indeed childhood sweethearts and have been together for a long time.”

After that, he made his own post on Weibo. “It was during a banquet. I saw it with my own eyes. Jiang Yuexi and Gu Xiaoze’s parents also introduced them in the same way. I also saw them kissing at the banquet with my own eyes.”

The effect of Mufeng’s words was different from Jiang Xun’s.

In the eyes of the netizens, Jiang Xun was just a small Internet celebrity. There was no way she’d have the chance to interact with someone from the Gu Family.

However, Mufeng was different—the banquets he attended would definitely be very grand. As a top-notch existence even among the wealthiest families, he definitely had some connections with the Gu family. His words were credible!

Furthermore, as the CEO of the Qin Yang Group, Mufeng would have to take responsibility for his words. He couldn’t just spit on anyone, and he definitely could not make irresponsible remarks.

[Things are getting exciting]

Today’s JJ: [Big Boss Xun never spouts nonsense!]

[Can those netizens who insulted Jiang Xun hurry up and apologize! They’re so enthusiastic when they’re scolding others, so why don’t they apologize when it’s their turn?]

[@theOtherHalfsLaw “The Internet is not a lawless place. Livestreamers should also be cautious with their words and actions.” It’s time for you to eat your words. Delete your account and apologize.]

Some fans were still stubbornly refusing to back down, however.

[So what if Qin Mufeng said it? His words are also empty. Can they be used as evidence?]

However, not long after such comments appeared, a bunch of revealing photos were sent out by a burner account. They were all intimate photos of Yuexi and Xiaoze, such as selfies and photos showing the both of them kissing and cuddling with each other.

There was no need for any more intimate photos after this; these were more than enough to prove the relationship between Yuexi and Xiaoze.

The person who leaked the photos said, [These are all photos from Jiang Yuexi’s Instagram account.]

After Bingbing posted these, he logged out of his Weibo account, hiding his achievements and fame.

After that, Jiang Xun received a screenshot from Yu Bingbing.

Bingbing: [Boss, this is all the evidence I could find. I’ve already posted them on Weibo.]

Jiang Xun: [How did you know about Yuexi’s Instagram account?]

Bingbing: [It’s just a very simple technology. I found out after checking. Yuexi’s computer doesn’t have any security at all.]

Jiang Xun: [You hacked into her computer?]

Bingbing: [Not really. I only managed to obtain some information from her computer through some small technical means. These photos were posted on her Instagram account and made public.]

Jiang Xun: [Bingbing, you wouldn’t happen to be a hacker, would you?]

Bingbing: [I still have a lot to learn >///<.]

Jiang Xun: [Why did you tell me about this? It’s better to keep such things a secret.]

Bingbing: [You’re my boss, so why would I hide it from you? Besides, you won’t do anything bad to me.]

Jiang Xun: [Alright, I’ll delete this chat history completely. No one will be able to see this from my phone or chat account. As for your hacker information, including your code name, don’t tell me anything else. Keep this secret to yourself.]

Of course, Bingbing knew that Jiang Xun was doing this to protect him. He agreed, keeping her good intentions in mind.

With the photos Bingbing had sent Jiang Xun, it was simply irrefutable evidence.

Yuexi and Xiaoze couldn’t argue against this anymore.

The shippers that were rooting for the two of them seemed to have been struck by a bolt out of the blue.
