Chapter 125: Outrageous Private Messages

Translator: Zayn_

December 30th.

It was the day Yu Muhuai’s new EP[1] was released.

The title track was the song for which Song Qingyou had performed in the MV.

However, what was trending even earlier than the new song and music video was the topic #Gu Xingchen Love Triangle#.

As a walking headline, even if Gu Xingchen fell down, he would be on the top of the trending searches, not to mention the eye-catching scandal of a “love triangle.”

This topic was sparked by several photos posted by passers-by.

The original blogger said that he was going out for supper at night. When he passed by a high-end restaurant, he saw Gu Xingchen. Just as he was about to go up and greet him, he saw Gu Xingchen walking towards a woman. Later, he realized that it was Song Qingyou…Then, Yu Muhuai walked over to them…

In short, the original blogger’s description wasn’t too problematic. He just looked like a passerby.

The problem was that some media outlets liked to distort the truth.

After they forwarded the photo, they added fuel to the fire, insisting that the relationship between Gu Xingchen and Yu Muhuai was full of tension. This must be a drama between two men competing for one woman…

Faced with this kind of news, the fans couldn’t just sit still and wait for death.

[ Three people talking can be called a love triangle? Then your family has been messing around?]

[ Xingchen doesn’t even know Song Qingyou, stop creating hype!]

[ Why do female celebrities always like to use this kind of method to create hype? Song Qingyou, please stay away from Xingchen!]

[ A certain company has been promoting the drama of two men fighting over a woman since Man vs. Wild. Now, they’re actually trying to use it on our stars. Isn’t it disgusting? ]

Once someone started the tempo, fans were no different from trolls.

In the end, it was all Song Qingyou’s fault.

Gradually, the rumors spread.

The passers-by who had posted the photos in the beginning were ignored.

Song Qingyou came back from her morning run and sat down to rest for a while. Then she got up and took a towel to go to the bathroom.

When she heard her phone ring, she picked it up without looking at the caller ID.

Jiang Xuyan’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

“You and Xiao Yu went out for dinner last night. Why didn’t you invite me?”

So he was here to denounce her.

Song Qingyou took a sip of water. “It was almost 10 o’clock. If Brother Jiang went to bed early, wouldn’t we be disturbing you?”

“Even if you call me in the wee hours of the morning, I can still get up. What sleep? It’s just an excuse.”

Jiang Xuyan snorted. “See, it’s because you didn’t invite me that something happened!”

“What happened?”

“You don’t know?” Jiang Xuyan was shocked, but he didn’t waste any time and quickly asked, “Did you two meet Gu Xingchen last night?”

“Yes.”

“It’s because of him that you and Xiao Yu were photographed.”

Some people ridiculed Song Qingyou for her love of hyping up two men and one woman, thinking that she was some sort of internet princess.

The reply from the system was, ‘Only a slave would see everyone as a princess.’

When she met someone who scolded her for her looks, she would directly say,

‘You think everyone is the same as you, who looks like a QR code, and others can’t know what it is unless they scan it!’

The first person who was criticized was not convinced and posted a screenshot of the automatic reply.

As a result, it caused others to post screenshots one after another.

The most important thing was that even if their curses were similar, the responses they received were different.

Even if dozens of people scolded her at the same time, Song Qingyou’s

auto-reply could respond immediately.

After discovering this, everyone’s attention began to shift.

Especially when Song Qingyou’s fans heard the news and rushed over to see what the automatic reply would be if they sent a rainbow fart.

According to Song Qingyou’s program, if it recognized that it was a compliment, it would reply with all kinds of cute emojis.

In the afternoon.

As too many people treated this as a game, the entries #Song Qingyou’s Weibo private message# and #Song Qingyou’s dissing quotes# even made it to the hot search…

Most people didn’t ask if Song Qingyou had done anything, but what kind of black technology did she use?

Someone even went to ask the customer service on Weibo, but the customer service was full of question marks.

What was even more ridiculous was that someone from the internet water studio contacted Chen Lan and asked Song Qingyou how much this ‘black technology’ was selling for.

Chen Lan didn’t understand.

Song Qingyou replied calmly, [Tell them 1 want 30% of the studio’s shares]

The internet water army[2] was considered a half-black industry. Usually, there was a company that controlled the flow of the water army. Song Qingyou could find it easily. The company she named was the largest company in this industry in China.

It was definitely illegal to hire a troll army to slander others, but it was not illegal to create hype for oneself. Flowever, it was useless to prohibit such things, especially in the entertainment industry.

So when Chen Lan asked why, Song Qingyou’s answer was:

[ If you can’t beat them, join them?]

It would be strange if she couldn’t beat them in reality! Song Qingyou just wanted to make money!

Chen Lan, [What do you want the shares for? Do you want them not to accept orders related to you? ]

Song Qingyou, [ We accept all business at our door! I just want the shares, not their jobs]

This way, if someone were to hire a troll army to slander Song Qingyou, they would be giving Song Qingyou money!

Wasn’t this too nefarious?

Chen Lan was dumbfounded.

But the studio that had taken a fancy to Song Qingyou’s technology actually agreed…
