Hearing Ye Xinyu’s bizarre yell, Ou Linlin immediately furrowed her brow, casting a cold glare in Ye Xinyu’s direction.
This little wretch Ye Xinyu, what mischief was she up to again?
Ou Linlin’s gaze had just shifted to Ye Xinyu when she caught Ye Xinyu reveling in schadenfreude.
Ye Xinyu held her phone, scrolling and saying, "Ye Shu’s speed in climbing up the ranks with Sheng Shaochen is fast, just as quick as she is removed from the trending searches!" While speaking, she couldn’t help but cover her mouth, snickering.
The other resting drama crew members, who had also been silently following the ’Han Faction’ and ’Shu Faction’ events, upon hearing Ye Xinyu, nodded in agreement while scrolling their phones.
At that moment, the entertainment news segment swiftly changed its tune: the trending searches initially supporting the ’Shu Faction’ were being rapidly removed.
In their place, more and more searches supporting the ’Han Faction’ appeared.
The reason was that someone suddenly released a public relations statement stating that Sheng Shaochen was merely looking out for Sun Nanjue’s sake, helping introduce the newcomer by bringing Ye Shu to Han Ruixin’s birthday party to increase Ye Shu’s exposure in the entertainment circle and add buzz to Sun Nanjue’s new movie "Dynasty."
Additionally, an interview video was attached, featuring Mrs. Han and Han Ruixin.
Mrs. Han, adopting the demeanor of an almost mother-in-law, continuously answered the reporters’ questions.
When asked about Sheng Shaochen bringing Ye Shu to Han Ruixin’s birthday so intimately, both Mrs. Han and Han Ruixin acted as if they had known beforehand, demonstrating their understanding of Sheng Shaochen’s chivalrous act to help a friend.
Han Ruixin, shyly facing the camera, declared, "Brother Chen’s exemplary character is the most important reason why I deeply love him. As the woman behind Brother Chen, I will silently support everything he does."
Sincerity and emotion mingled, profoundly moving...
Once such a public relations statement was released, not only did it provide a smooth excuse for those who had previously supported the ’Shu Faction’ to switch sides, but it also created an illusion for the onlookers that a strategic marriage between Sheng and Han Families was inevitable.
It also caused many people unaware of the truth to develop a predefined favorable impression of Han Ruixin.
Some keyboard warriors even began online attacks against Ye Shu, accusing her of ingratitude and scheming to take advantage when Han Ruixin’s man was vulnerable.
Ou Linlin, who had just been infuriated by these baseless reports, now heard Ye Xinyu adding insult to injury with her sneering comments and was immediately enraged.
Staring contemptuously at Ye Xinyu, she said, "Having been in this circle so long, haven’t you been forcibly removed from trending searches? How can you still be so easily deceived by such PR fluff? I really wonder if you even have a brain!"
"Ou Linlin, there’s no use saying these things to me, they’re pointless. If I were you, I’d be more concerned about your good friend Ye Shu who might already be somewhere crying her eyes out. After all, the Han Family are the wealthiest in Han City, and Ye Shu is just a fallen damsel; do you think she can compete with Han Ruixin?"
Ye Xinyu sneered sarcastically; she, of course, knew that the article was a PR release from the Han Family and was even more aware that those ’Shu Faction’ trending searches were forcibly removed after being bought off.
She could even guess with her toes that about ninety percent of those keyboard warriors savagely attacking Ye Shu were paid trolls.
