Bai Jingjing did not know what happened, but it wasn't hard for her to find out because when she searched her own name in the search engine, her name was mixed in a strange hot topic with the title The Unknown Truth.
Scrolling down to see what exactly was happening, Bai Jingjing felt her heart taking a leap as she saw that her inside job of using her own water army to attack Ran Xueyi was completely exposed to the public! Even the receipts that some water army received from her manager was screenshotted and posted for the public to see!
How did this happen? Who exposed her? Why didn't her manager find out about this? Her questions were left unanswered as she stared with a heavy heart at the hot topic surging upwards as minutes passed by.
After a few minutes of calming herself down, Bai Jingjing swung her legs off the bed and hurriedly stood up to look for her manager who was sleeping next door. The hotel room they went in was a two-bedroom with a big living room so they could easily find each other when needed.
--'Bang,bang!'
Bai Jingjing banged her hands against the door and waited for a few seconds before she heard something from the inside of the room. Bai Jingjing's manager opened the door with a yawn and frowned when she saw Bai Jingjing standing in front of her room.
"What's going on?" her manager asked, scratching her head.
"What's going on? Didn't you check your phone?!" Bai Jingjing was in panic.
Her manager blinked. "My phone was out of battery when I entered my room to sleep. It's being charged right now."
"What the hell? Why did it have to be out of battery now!" Bai Jingjing pushed her manager away and unplugged the charging phone and turned it on. When the phone turned on, Bai Jingjing pushed the phone to the manager and ordered, "Input your password."
Bai Jingjing's manager did as she said and asked, "What's wrong? Did something really happen?"
Bai Jingjing, however, did not reply to her question and instead moved her fingers across the screen before shoving the phone back to her manager. The screen displayed the current top hot topic with her name involved in it.
"Why is this..." Bai Jingjing's manager was also shocked to see this. Then, she received a call from the company president.
She paused for a moment before she answered. "Pre...president?"
A voice familiar to Bai Jingjing and her manager came through the phone. The tone was demanding and loud as if he was doing his best to shout at them.
Bai Jingjing felt her back growing numb with a chill as the company president continued scolding them. This was the first time that the company president had scolded her so much that both she and her manager had to push away the phone from getting their eardrums ruptured.
After being scolded and telling them to fix this problem themselves, Bai Jingjing slumped down on the bed and looked up at her manager. "Just how did things get exposed? Did we have some white-eyed wolves in our team?"
"How could that be possible? All the people in our team were hand-picked by me! No one will dare to do anything if they still want to keep their life intact!" In order to combine a good team who will to their bones and stay loyal to them, Zhu Shu picked those employees who had one or two secrets that they dare not tell anyone.
In this way, she could control them however she wanted and if they dare not to be obedient to her, then Zhu Shu will also not feel sorry to them if she ended up airing their dirty laundry outside.
So, Zhu Shu was very confident in the people she picked herself and immediately shut down this idea.
Bai Jingjing still believed that someone betrayed her, but she also couldn't deny that Zhu Shu's method of keeping people as her obedient slave through various methods were indeed amazing. At the very least, she was the one who got all the benefits through Zhu Shu's underhanded ways.
But even though she trusted Zhu Shu and her team of obedient slaves, Bai Jingjing's reputation was slowly being trampled on and her number of fans decreased a lot. This was a completely unexpected situation.
Previously, she was still being showered with attention and a lot of people were praising her name as if she was a God who can bring everyone fortune and happiness. But now, she was being accused of being a green lotus, who was acting innocent but actually envious of other people's glory and fame and using another person's hand to teach someone a lesson.
This was really insulting and offensive that Bai Jingjing had to be held down by her manager to prevent her from responding to these internet soldiers!
The barrage continued an entire night until the next morning.
...
"It must be her! The person who did this should be Ran Xueyi!" Steffanie abruptly stood up. "I attacked her so why must she attack Sister Jingjing?"
It was really confusing why Ran Xueyi decided to go on the offense against Bai Jingjing when it was Steffanie who accused her of being kept by a gold master.
But what Steffanie didn't know was that this was really what Ran Xueyi planned. By attacking Bai Jingjing, the one who will be affected the most will be the same person who started everything in the name of boosting and defending their idol.
Steffanie accused Ran Xueyi out of revenge because she stole the role from Bai Jingjing. This resulted in Ran Xueyi being torn apart from all directions by every netizen warrior for a whole day while Bai Jingjing was boosted up.
But what would happen if the wheels turned and the one who was below was no longer Ran Xueyi, but the person whom Steffanie wanted to boost up?
Bai Jingjing's fate was over.
It was ruined by her own hands.
Steffanie ruined her idol with her own hands without even knowing she was being manipulated by someone else in the first place.
Shi Lian remained silent after seeing Steffanie's mood turning for the worst. In this kind of situation, she was smart enough to not draw any attention towards herself or else she will suffer greatly.
However, as if Lady Luck was mocking her, Steffanie saw her quivering next to the door and her eyes flashed slightly.
"Hey, you!" Steffanie glared. "What happened to the thing I told you to do? How can that woman still run around with that face of hers?!"
Shi Lian flinched and lowered her gaze to the ground, refusing to say anything since she really had nothing to say to Steffanie. Where would she actually get the courage to do what Steffanie told her to do?
It was a crime, okay! If she really did do it, wouldn't she be sent to prison if she was caught?
Shi Lian knew this and Steffanie should also know this. But the latter ignored this fact and just wanted to ruin Ran Xueyi's face and tore that smile on her lips away!
Seeing Shi Lian hesitate, Steffanie clicked her tongue and sharply said to her: "If you still don't do as I said... Don't even think your father can stay inside the hospital! I'll have the guards throw him outside!"
Hearing this, Shi Lian finally reacted and tears welled up in her eyes. "No... If you throw my father outside then how will he get better?"
Steffanie coldly laughed. "If he gets better or not, it doesn't concern me at all! It's all up to you, Shi Lian. Whatever happens to your father will only depend on your conscience to choose whether you want him to stay inside the hospital to get better or not!"
"But...if I did what you told me... Won't I be sent to prison?"
"Who said you're going to prison?" Steffanie raised her eyebrows. "I will make sure that nobody can find out that you went to Ran Xueyi to ruin her face! And even if someone saw you... don't worry, my father knows someone in the police department and have you released quickly!"
With that, Shi Lian really had nothing to say to refuse this. Choosing between her father and Ran Xueyi... Shi Lian only wished that Ran Xueyi could forgive her.
Seeing the helplessness and despair in Shi Lian's eyes, Steffanie knew that her manager had come to terms with her conscience and decided to do as she was told. This gave her great happiness.
Steffanie held Shi Lian's shoulders and smiled. "I'll give you until midnight. I want to hear the good news that Ran Xueyi can no longer show her face in the news! Make sure that her face is all ruined and torn so that no man can ever look at her anymore!"
Shi Lian soullessly nodded her head before heading outside.
