Chapter 327: Chapter 327: Posting on Weibo Isn’t Popular Anymore
Here’s the requested translation:
Before contacting Chu Xi, Shen Yi decided to first reveal the truth and completely crush Qingyue.
He didn’t discuss this matter with the company or his manager; it was entirely his personal decision.
By the time Shen Yi’s livestream surged to the top of the trending charts, the manager wanted to stop it, but it was already too late.
While Qingyue was still ranting crazily during his livestream, Shen Yi quietly started his own stream.
There was no promotion or hype—just a simple title: #ClarificationStatement#.
Shen Yi’s status as a top celebrity guaranteed traffic. Not long after the stream began, a large number of viewers flooded into his livestream room, even fans from Qingyue’s stream came over to join the chaos.
[The entertainment circle really seems to be into livestreaming lately. No one’s posting on Weibo anymore; whenever there’s drama, everyone starts a stream.]
[Excited! Is Shen Yi about to confront Qingyue head-on? Are there any juicy secrets out there that this casual observer doesn’t know? Spill them all!]
Shen Yi just glanced briefly at the comments, greeted the audience, and then got straight to the point.
"Dear fans and netizens, I’m Shen Yi. Regarding all the recent rumors online, I’d like to clarify something here. Yes, Qingyue has indeed been kept by someone, and I almost ended up just like him."
Shen Yi’s tone remained eerily calm as he said these words, but the audience in the livestream room lost their composure, their eyes and mouths hanging open in shock.
[Could someone translate Shen Yi’s words for me? My brain is fried. What did he just say?!]
[Bro, are you triggered? Don’t take responsibility for someone else’s mess!]
[When a celebrity personally steps forward, isn’t it usually to clear their name? How did Shen Yi turn this into outright confirmation? Does he seriously not want to stay in the entertainment industry anymore?]
It was as though Shen Yi had perfectly captured the viewers’ emotions. He waited several seconds to let them digest it before calmly picking up a tablet.
"I know this is hard to believe, so to make my words more credible, I’ll show you the evidence," Shen Yi said, his gaze lowered, his expression shrouded in darkness.
"Though it’s a history I’d rather not face, to permanently silence the liars spreading falsehoods, I have no choice but to rip open my wounds and expose the truth."
Shen Yi wasted no time on unnecessary words. He opened the tablet, and the viewers stopped updating their comments, instead widening their eyes, preparing to screenshot at any moment.
As the tablet screen appeared on camera, a long chat exchange was revealed, shocking everyone.
The conversation was between Qingyue and a woman named Qiu Yinong. Its tone was extremely suggestive, leaving people dumbfounded.
[Sister Qiu, did you enjoy last night? You aren’t tired, but I’m totally exhausted. I didn’t even attend the group’s new song promo event today—left it to Shen Yi, that fool. Isn’t he always talking about how much he values fans? Since he’s so devoted to them, let’s dump all the hard work on him from now on.]
[Sister Qiu, I miss you. Thanks for gifting me that solo track. Shen Yi must be pissed, huh? He admired the song so much, but he had to give it up for me. Just goes to show, if he doesn’t know how to sweet-talk Sister Qiu, he can forget about getting what he wants.]
In addition to the chat records, Qingyue also sent this woman named Sister Qiu topless selfies of himself, to which she replied with suggestive emojis, followed by Qingyue sending back a shy emoji.
The early part of the chat was filled with flirtatious exchanges, but it became chilling later when Qiu Yinong sent this message to Qingyue:
[That bandmate of yours, Shen Yi, is really clueless. Sister Chen showed interest in him—it’s a blessing! He’s not only ungrateful but even ridiculed Sister Chen. Don’t you newbies without connections realize that to make it big in the entertainment industry, you have to latch onto a bigger figure? If Sister Chen gets upset, she could blacklist him completely!]
Qingyue reassured Sister Qiu: [Sister Qiu, don’t worry. That idiot is just stubborn like that—acting all haughty on the surface, but who knows how filthy he is inside. Rest assured, if there’s something Sister Chen wants, we’d never dare to refuse.]
Sister Qiu: [What’s your plan?]
Qingyue sent back a sinister emoji: [If soft persuasion won’t work, then we’ll use force. I doubt he’ll be able to resist once we slip him some drugs.]
Their conversation was horrifying, but what came next was even more shocking.
Qingyue sent a photo of Shen Yi lying unconscious on a large bed. Though his critical areas were clothed, this scene was devastating to someone like Shen Yi, who’d always marketed himself as a cold, aloof, and virtuous celebrity.
Besides the photo, Qingyue also sent a video where he was groping an unconscious Shen Yi inappropriately and bragged to Sister Qiu: [Sister Qiu, I’ve already tested the goods for Sister Chen. It’s quite something. I won’t get in the way of her fun; I’m out.]
The chat records ended there, leaving the livestream viewers stunned beyond belief. Their jaws dropped, their eyes widened even more, overwhelmed by the massive shock.
It takes extraordinary bravery to display such footage to an audience. Even though Shen Yi had mentally prepared himself, his face still turned unnaturally pale after showing the records.
"Apologies. I originally wanted to show everyone the complete records, but this is all I could retrieve—they were secretly captured from Qingyue’s phone. I couldn’t get more. Please forgive me for not exposing them sooner. I was selfish and didn’t want to reveal such personal content to the public. I felt tainted, and after retrieving these records, I couldn’t muster the courage to confront Qingyue. Instead, I secretly deleted his chat history."
Shen Yi lowered his head, unclear whether he was apologizing to the audience or overwhelmed with shame from having his deeply buried secrets dragged back into the light.
After processing the chat records, Shen Yi’s fans’ initial reaction was shock, followed by rage, especially upon seeing Shen Yi dejectedly bow his head.
[Baby, don’t be upset. Don’t punish yourself for someone else’s sins.]
[Yi Yi, someone as kind as you isn’t dirty—it’s people like Qingyue with their vicious hearts who are truly filthy!]
[Please, I’m begging you to smile. I’m terrified you’ll do something impulsive!]
[Damn! Qingyue, that scumbag. So on the day of the new song promo event, he was exhausted in bed, and Shen Yi had to carry the show solo—and then he was falsely accused of being arrogant and ditching his bandmates. Qingyue is shameless, dumping all the blame on Shen Yi.]
[So Shen Yi’s solo track was actually Qingyue’s reject? And yet Shen Yi managed to make it a hit—that says everything. His talent is clearly miles ahead of his teammates.]
[They once claimed Qingyue was the one who wrote all the group’s songs. Looking at this, it’s very likely someone else did, and he just slapped his name on it. He’s really good at scheming.]
[Why did Shen Yi end up with such teammates? No wonder he seemed off for a while—I bet he was traumatized by his backstabbing bandmate.]
