The power of the big fans turning against him was no less than a nuclear weapon, directly pulling Ling Han off his pedestal.
Mo Wanwan never expected that she and Ling Han would be forced to this point.
Completely opposite from her fantasies, they would reveal their relationship, but not under such passive circumstances filled with insults, rather, when she also became a legend in the entertainment industry, perhaps at her Best Actress award ceremony, or on a day when her work was celebrated, Ling Han would propose to her in a grand ceremony under the blessings of all fans and the envious eyes of everyone.
She fantasized about this scene countless times and firmly believed that one day she would achieve all this glory.
But now? Everything was different; she was like a rat crossing the street, being beaten and scolded, with no flowers or applause, no red carpet or bright lights, only a fallen lover and her own embarrassed self, hiding in a lifeless room, living in fear day by day.
"Where’s your PR team? Why is there still no response?"
Mo Wanwan’s team couldn’t handle such a widespread online backlash, and perhaps there was still a chance to turn things around if Ling Han’s team got involved, but it’s been three days now, and the mom-themed show has finished filming, yet there’s still no movement from Ling Han’s side, allowing the rumors online to grow more and more out of control.
"My previous PR team consisted of Ling Yan’s people, now Ling Yan is angry and has withdrawn all of them."
"So what do we do now? Some of the online revelations aren’t even true, and your rivals will definitely take this chance to completely destroy you; if we miss the opportunity to explain, we might not have the chance to recover."
Now the internet is even talking about her parents, Mo Wanwan never thought that her father’s past of marrying into a family and then cheating would be revealed, saying like father like daughter, and spreading rumors she had a boyfriend outside the industry whom she dumped for Ling Han.
She indeed had a boyfriend during college, but since entering the entertainment industry, she didn’t keep in touch much with him. Although she hadn’t completely broken up with him when she started dating Ling Han, everyone who knew understood it was her ex-boyfriend who was harassing her unilaterally!
The rumors online seemed plausible, even complete with photos of her with her ex-boyfriend, which she clearly saw him delete!
"Jiang Lai! Was it you! It was you, wasn’t it! You leaked our photos together!"
After the show recording ended, Zhou Yiqing did honor the agreement and drafted a contract immediately after terminating with her company, seamlessly signing Jiang Lai to Chuangxing. By the time everything was sorted, it was almost 9 o’clock at night. Jiang Lai was home, had just showered, and was about to rest when Mo Wanwan called.
"Oh, am I really that important?"
"You’re jealous of me, seizing this chance to step on me while I’m down, aren’t you afraid of karma?"
Jiang Lai laughed out loud, audaciously.
"Well, sorry, even if karma comes, you probably won’t see it, after all, this is just the appetizer, the main course hasn’t been served yet."
Jiang Lai outright admitted it, she dared to admit it so directly!
"I knew you were just acting on the show! Jiang Lai, are you fake? Aren’t you afraid your fans will discover your true self?"
Saying this, Mo Wanwan looked at the record button she had already pressed, a smirk appearing on her lips.
Who knew the voice on the other end would lightly respond.
"What did I say? Mo Wanwan, have you gone crazy from the stress? Oh right, do you remember the false things you leaked about me online before?
As a friend, don’t blame me for not warning you, publicly apologize."
"Jiang Lai, all you can do is find a lawyer, right? You wait for me..."
"Mm, go ahead and sue, see if anyone believes you."
With that, Jiang Lai hung up directly, leaving Mo Wanwan seething with anger. She watched her phone screen, thinking about the useless recording she just made, growing ever more furious.
Now she suspects some of the groundless rumors online were also put out by Jiang Lai, and since she could find a lawyer, so could she; she would see how long Jiang Lai could continue this!
Very quickly Mo Wanwan updated her Weibo.
[No more tolerating it! I can overlook those who plagiarize my work, but some people adding insult to injury and now releasing defamatory content? Then we’ll see each other in court! @Chuangxing Entertainment—Jiang Lai]
[Jiang Lai? What’s this got to do with Jiang Lai?]
[For those who’ve followed, Jiang Lai rose to fame by imitating Mo Wanwan initially, later they both participated in a variety show, and she gained more popularity through live streaming]
[Bitch Mo, stay away from Ling Han!!]
[Some people are jumping up now, show proof if you’re going to talk about someone!]
[Jiang Lai is a really good person, it’s obvious on her live streams that she’s a very capable and beautiful sister, I recommend everyone to watch the replays on "Baby", the silly mom and son pairing is super emotional!!]
Mo Wanwan didn’t expect that her comment area would be full of people speaking in support of Jiang Lai, she thought at least these people would investigate what Jiang Lai had done, but unexpectedly, they just blindly insulted her for dating Ling Han.
Mo Wanwan had tasted the power of online bullying; she once thought of using this method to get rid of Jiang Lai, but now she was thoroughly trapped and unable to save herself.
Now she needs to quickly gather evidence to refute the black rumors and make Jiang Lai pay!
But she didn’t expect Jiang Lai wouldn’t give her a chance to hesitate, she directly went public on Weibo with a picture and text revelation, upon opening it, it showed Jiang Lai filing a police report after being defamed, and then authenticated the account owner who posted the content was indeed Mo Wanwan.
To prevent Mo Wanwan from shifting blame onto staff, Jiang Lai directly attached the login address and time she found, at such times and places, only Mo Wanwan herself could post content!
Finally, Jiang Lai added a line at the end.
[I guarantee all released content is true, the police have intervened, and I request Miss Mo to contact me as soon as possible to compensate for all damages caused by this defamation.
Furthermore, the five million hush money Mr. Ling previously gave has been returned in full; learning from past mistakes, I don’t want to end up being accused of blackmail for seeking justice.
A word of advice, the internet is not a lawless place, Mr. Ling has repeatedly interfered with my work in the name of love, when in fact it was just an abuse of power and workplace bullying! For this reason, I have terminated my contract with the previous company.
I also hope my colleagues will not go through the same bullying. As for Mr. Ling’s excessive intrusion into my personal information, I have already reported it to the police.]
