Chapter : 14
The Rich Young Master’s Ex-Girlfriend (14)
In about an hour, all the rumors and posts about Tang Guo had practically vanished without a trace.
While everyone was still guessing, Xingyun’s official Weibo account stepped forward and declared that Tang Guo was a talented singer they had newly discovered, and of course they would invest heavily in cultivating her. The post even fabricated a story about where they had found her and how they had signed her.
In short, their storytelling was far more convincing than the posts that had been bashing Tang Guo.
Most importantly, they also posted Tang Guo’s contract with Xingyun, leaving no room for doubt.
Everyone had witnessed Tang Guo’s abilities with their own eyesāno one dared to say she lacked talent.
A few stubborn black-haters still struggled to resist, but in the end, Xingyun produced evidence: records showing that a certain contestant had hired paid trolls to smear Tang Guo all over the internet.
With this flood of evidenceātransfer records, chat logs between the contestant and the trollsāthe abusive comments about Tang Guo evaporated as if they had never existed.
The aggrieved casual fans now all turned their anger toward the contestant who had hired the trolls. People dug up her competition footage and found that her singing was merely average. In an instant, she was buried under a deluge of criticism.
The production team also moved swiftly to handle the matter, disqualifying that contestant from continuing in the competition.
Because of this wave of negativity, Tang Guo’s popularity seemed to rise even higher.
Many who had previously attacked her came to her Weibo to apologize. However, aside from posting promotional content as required by the show, Tang Guo never shared anything about her personal life.
This left her fans with no way to interact with her.
Just when her fans were feeling hopeless, Tang Guo finally made a post:
“My sugar daddy is super powerful. With just one word from him, no one dares to badmouth me. Anyone who slings mud at me will have it backfire on them.”
The moment this Weibo went live, it was shared countless times. Her fans didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Guo Guo is angry.”
“Yeah, anyone who’s been wrongly accused like that would be upset.”
“That so-and-so contestant is really insufferable. No talent of her own, and she had to hire trolls to drag others down.”
“Our Guo Guo sings so beautifully and is so prettyāit’s only natural that she’d make many people jealous. If any more negative posts like that pop up in the future, we need to keep our eyes open and not let others lead us astray.”
“Exactly. People’s hearts are so hard to read these days. They only dared to mess with her because they thought she had no backing, right? Just look at that other oneāwho would dare say a single bad word about her?”
“Right, right. If Guo Guo really did have a sugar daddy, would they still dare to attack her like that?”
It wasn’t until this post had been forwarded countless times that You Yu finally saw it.
“Ancestor, next time you post something, could you at least discuss it with me first?” You Yu said with a resigned expression. This one really did have a sugar daddy, but she also had genuine talentāotherwise, You Yu wouldn’t be so willing to go along with it.
Tang Guo was eating an ice pop, utterly unconcerned. “It’s fine. I have my sugar daddy. Whoever insults me, he’ll shut them up for me.”
You Yu was speechless. She was about to offer some words of caution when her phone suddenly rang.
“Yes… no prior commitments. She’s free. Okay, I’ll bring her over right away.” You Yu hung up and let out a sigh of relief. “Your sugar daddy wants you over there immediately.”
…
“Sugar Daddy, what song would you like to hear today?”
Tang Guo sat on the sofa, propping her chin up with one hand, her beautiful eyes fixed on Leng Rui. This man was truly handsome!
He just had rather peculiar tastes.
Leng Rui sat with his eyes closed, reclining in his chair, his slender fingers lightly tapping the desk. “Anything.”
