"After all, they’re busy all day "defending justice," and their mory is poor too; just ignore them for a while, and they’ll naturally give up on the cyberbullying..."

It’s precisely because she understood this group of internet mobs that Lin Jiayun was very clear there was sothing wrong with Gu Heng’s approach.

You see, keyboard warriors will never back down because ranting at you costs them nothing. The more you react, the more you take them seriously, the more excited they get because they’re well aware they stand at the moral high ground. Compared to Gu Heng, they are the "vulnerable group," and when things get blown up, it’s always the "dominant party" like Gu Heng who ends up at a disadvantage.

Not to ntion, Gu Heng was the type to point fingers and curse at netizens...

Although Principal Wang had found keyboard warriors off-putting in his youth, he would only argue with an individual in the comnt section, not like Gu Heng, who openly fired shots at the entire community of keyboard warriors...

As expected...

Lin Jiayun clicked on the comnt section and her face changed drastically as she read the comnts...

The post from two hours ago already had 110,000 likes, and the number of comnts even surpassed the likes, reaching 190,000...

But these 190,000 were almost exclusively negative; it was a sea of disapprovals...

Even under the few highly-liked positive comnts, there were hundreds of keyboard warriors chasing after with insults, calling them "capitalist lackeys," "dogs under the traitor’s command," and all sorts of derogatory phrases kept erging...

It was foreseeable that these limited positive comnts would soon be deleted by the comnters, unable to withstand the onslaught, and then the entire comnt section would beco unanimously negative...

With this thought, Lin Jiayun hurriedly walked over to Gu Heng with her phone...

"Gu Heng, is this the video you just posted?"

Right now, Gu Heng was watching the children frolicking in the outdoor playground on the first floor of Wanxiang City. Hearing Lin Jiayun’s question, he turned around, glanced at the phone, and nodded lightly, "Yeah, it’s mine."

Saying this, he took Lin Jiayun’s phone into his own hands and joked, "Wow, such high likes and comnts? Looks like my 1 million promotion fee wasn’t wasted."

Lin Jiayun nearly blacked out upon hearing that...

She had heard about spending money for thrills, but this was the first ti she had heard about spending money to get scolded—and a whole million at that...

Thinking of this, Lin Jiayun, speechless, walked over to Gu Heng, intending to show him the comnts to see if he would maintain his indifferent attitude after knowing there were so many people cursing him in the comnts section...

Just at that mont...

Gu Heng’s phone, tucked in his pocket, started to ring...

Seeing this, Lin Jiayun also stopped what she was doing and stood obediently to the side.

As Gu Heng pulled out his phone, Lin Jiayun saw the na Ouyang Nana on the screen, her lips moving slightly, obviously having sothing she wanted to say...

After all, she was also a woman, and no matter how sensible and well-behaved, facing her "boyfriend" talking on the phone with another ambiguous individual right in front of her, how could she truly be indifferent? Especially knowing that woman was so much more outstanding than herself...

However, she was quite clear about her own place; aside from feeling a bit uncomfortable inside, her expression didn’t change much, and she remained as obedient as ever...

As for Gu Heng, well, he didn’t think too much and directly answered the call, teasingly saying, "Yo, did the big star finish her busy day? Got ti to contact now? Are you calling to return the money?"

Under normal circumstances, Ouyang Nana might have bantered back and forth with Gu Heng, but her tone on the other end of the line was unusually serious.

"Gu Heng, do you have Weibo?"

Gu Heng also detected the seriousness in her voice and responded with curiosity, "I do, but I hardly use it, what’s up?"

"Go check Weibo, we’re trending."

"The two of us? We’re trending? What’s going on?"

Gu Heng could understand becoming a hot search on Weibo; after all, he had released his "explanation post" and even invested 1 million in promotions, which would quickly sweep across the entire internet...

TikTok wasn’t that bad actually.

While there were many idiots, at least there were a lot of sane people too.

But Weibo, what sort of place was that?

The headquarters of TO, the hub of fan circles, the gathering place for public intellectuals.

It could be said that the most nauseating groups on the internet almost all converge on Weibo. My na trending on Weibo, how could that possibly be a good thing?

What I don’t understand is, why am I trending with Ouyang Nana?

I don’t seem to have had any encounters with Ouyang Nana in the past few days, have I?

"You should check out Weibo for the details. My studio has already been in touch with the official Weibo, and it’s confird that the firsthand photos and articles were released by Zhuo Wei’s paparazzi studio. We’re currently trying to get in contact with Zhuo Wei’s studio.

Oh right, I know sothing. The paparazzo who you sent to the local police station in Switzerland has been released on bail, and the photos and articles trending this ti are also those taken in Geneva at the ti.

But this attack is very vicious, it’s not just exposing my relationship, but claiming that I’m being kept by you, and there’s quite a lot of negative publicity about you..."

After hearing what Ouyang Nana said, Gu Heng’s eyes narrowed slightly...

Zhuo Wei’s studio...

Although Gu Heng wasn’t very interested in the entertainnt industry, he was still quite familiar with the na Zhuo Wei...

The number one paparazzo in dostic entertainnt...

There used to be another studio called Fengxing Studio. Their main job was to send a large number of paparazzi to secretly photograph celebrities, dig up their dirt, and if so big shot wanted to target a specific celebrity, they would pay a hefty sum for the dirt on that celebrity.

By extorting celebrities on one hand, and taking bounties from big shots on the other, this guy indeed made quite a bit of money in the earlier years.

However, later on, nobody knew what happened, Fengxing Studio disbanded, and Zhuo Wei disappeared from the entertainnt industry for a while, only to beco active again in the last two years. However, the dirt he exposed was all insignificant trivia, the kind even bystanders wouldn’t care about...

Because of this, Zhuo Wei’s fa had been declining over the years, such that so of the new fans in fan circles didn’t even know who Zhuo Wei was...

But Gu Heng was sowhat puzzled...

It was understandable that Zhuo Wei would have paparazzi shoot Ouyang Nana.

After all, since her debut, Ouyang Nana has been constantly embroiled in scandals, a clearly viable source of material. From Zhuo Wei’s perspective, investing so ti and effort on her might actually unearth sothing explosive...

But what does he have to do with the entertainnt circle?

Besides, his current public identity was already that of a high-profile investor of Hua Country...

Pure capital...

Has Zhuo Wei lost his mind? To even dare drag into this?

At this thought, Gu Heng beca sowhat interested and responded to Ouyang Nana, "Alright, I’ll check Weibo. Let know when you get in touch with Zhuo Wei’s studio."

After that, he hung up the phone and turned to Lin Jiayun, who was standing nearby, and said, "Do you have Weibo downloaded?"

"Yes, what’s up?"

Gu Heng nodded at her words, found Weibo on Lin Jiayun’s phone and tapped into it, speaking nonchalantly, "Ouyang Nana just told I was trending on Weibo with so negative exposure. I want to see what’s going on."

Negative exposure?

Lin Jiayun, as a dedicated gossip follower, downloaded Weibo precisely to get the scoop on the entertainnt industry in real ti.

After all, Weibo is definitely the frontline for news about entertainnt scandals.

But now, the key figure of the gossip was right by her side. How could she possibly contain her excitent? Her eyes widened with thrill as she asked, "What kind of exposure? Is it about you and Ouyang Nana?"

Hearing Lin Jiayun’s excited tone while waiting for Weibo to load, Gu Heng couldn’t help but roll his eyes and flicked her forehead, saying, "What’s with you? You seem pretty thrilled that I’m being sared?"

Lin Jiayun held her forehead and chuckled, "I just want to know what the dirt is... Besides, you’re not in showbiz, what kind of dirt could they possibly have on you?"

Gu Heng also shrugged, "I don’t know either, that’s why I’m checking Weibo now."

After saying that, Weibo finished loading, and Gu Heng’s gaze moved back to the phone screen...
