Ai Lin, who was standing next to her with a bun on her head, pushed up her thick glasses and suddenly leaned over to ask, “Tongtong, can you be a model? We don’t have any models.”
Shutong pursed her lips and smiled, “I can be anything.”
Zhang Yao, thinking back to college, added, “Back then, Shutong was also vying for a model from my classmates.”
Shutong stayed with Zhang Yao for the whole morning. Only after she heard the system say that Ji Chu and Qu Yiming were meeting did she take a car and leave.
On the way, Shutong checked Weibo and found that those marketing accounts had been deactivated, the hot searches had been suppressed, and the videos of Gu Qingqing and Qu Yiming had basically been deleted.
The Gu Group issued a statement—it did not mention the surveillance video at all, but only said that it was a misunderstanding.
And Miss Qiu, Gu Qingqing’s assistant, had been terminated by the group because she had taken the initiative to prank Shen Shutong.
But netizens certainly didn’t believe it and thought that Miss Qiu was just a scapegoat.
So, after the official video was deleted, netizens developed a rebellious mentality, frequently bringing up Gu Qingqing and Qu Yiming, offering all sorts of insinuations and mockery. Those who had saved the video kept posting screenshots, reposting them after it was deleted!
They were even worried about Shutong, who had not responded at all, wondering if she was being controlled.
Shutong hadn’t made much money during this period, but her Weibo followers had increased significantly.
Shutong took to her main account and reposted the Gu Group’s statement, captioning: “Oh.”
Following the comments, netizens followed suit: “Oh, I’ve read it. Keep writing.”
Shutong was amused; netizens were quite cooperative.
She quickly updated her Weibo: “I accept all apologies and hope that everything ends here. I am just an ordinary person.”
After she posted the somewhat humble Weibo post, she received many private messages and comments from netizens comforting her.
“Give me a hug, little sister. Let’s just let it go. I feel like I can’t win against these two big groups of scumbags and bitches!”
“It’s good that you’re okay. Stay away from those bastards!”
“Why doesn’t Ji Chu come out? Girl, you’re right to divorce! Men are unreliable!”
“The statements issued by both companies are evasive and don’t even offer an apology. It’s disgusting!”
“Ms. Qiu and the marketing account are taking the blame. I don’t know how much they’ve been paid! They really don’t deserve any sympathy!”
“Girl, you’re the best, but I still feel so bad. That couple is so shameless. All the keyboard warriors who cursed her, go eat shit!!”
Some people also said that Shutong was a saint, and they felt sorry for her and hoped that she would use legal means to protect her rights.
But they didn’t understand her situation. Right now, she just wanted to escape the plotline forced upon her by the hero and heroine. Staying alive was the most important thing.
After all, those screenshots and videos didn’t constitute any strong evidence to kill those two people. Using public opinion to make them bow their heads on the moral level was already a good result.
When Shutong checked her email, she discovered that she’d received an interview invitation from a multinational affordable luxury brand. She also received several offers for collaborations with studios and even individual startups, all of which looked promising.
Zhang Yao’s situation was still unstable, and she wasn’t sure if she could continue, so Shutong was quite interested in that company.
But she couldn’t be happy just yet; the hero and heroine were still clinging to her like a dog-skin plaster…
According to the address provided by the system, Shutong came to a coffee shop in the CBD. When she looked in from the outside, she saw Ji Chu and Qu Yiming at a glance.
She walked around half a circle and sat down next to a row of green plants not far from the two of them.
“You were the one who posted the video online.” Qu Yiming looked disdainful, staring at the calm and steady man opposite him.
“It’s not me.” Ji Chu replied directly.
“That bar is my friend’s. You were there that day, and you were the one who took the surveillance video.” Qu Yiming said with remarkable certainty.
“Really?” Ji Chu took a sip of coffee, his expression still calm.
Qu Yiming couldn’t get anything out of him, so he could only pretend to smile calmly and say, “You even managed to contact my mother. You’re quite capable.”
“Not bad.”
“Ridiculous.” Qu Yiming thought of his mother’s regard for Ji Chu and felt that there was something he didn’t know. He wanted to test him.
“Who do you think you are? You don’t even have the qualifications to negotiate with the Qu family. Your small company will change hands soon.”
Good day, everyone!
