From Shen Yihuan's kidnapping in the hospital parking lot to her pursuit of legal responsibility against the Liu family, her trending topics were meticulously orchestrated!
If anyone were to claim this wasn't a monthly subscription service, it would be an understatement!
Is it really good to dominate the trending charts every day? What would the other VIP monthly subscribers in the industry think?
Even if their competitors figured it out, what about the programmers who lost their hair over it?
And if the programmers didn't mind, what about the anti-fans waiting to find fault with you every single day?!
What's even more infuriating is that "Meiyu Media" has never spent money on Xia Weiliang's marketing. President Jiang praises her to everyone he meets, always mentioning Xia Weiliang, treating her like royalty!
Given Xia Weiliang's magnetic pull for attention, whether Xiao Yi is involved or not makes no difference. Furthermore, regardless of Xiao Yi's willingness, his recent surge in exposure is also due to "riding" on her popularity.
Therefore, anything that happens to Xia Weiliang is both novel and not surprising.
Take the kidnapping, for instance. From the perspective of her fans, the focus immediately veered off course.
"Oh my god, thinking about it makes my heart race! What if her face was injured? She doesn't have much acting skill to begin with, and her singing is off-key. If she can't even be a pretty face, how can she survive in this industry?"
"I watched the surveillance footage. To be honest, our Empress is quite brave. Once she zones out, she's fearless!"
"The one above, it's as if our Empress doesn't zone out normally!"
"Agreed, this is a public platform, so we must be precise with our words! What if others mistakenly think our Empress is usually very intelligent?"
"Yes, yes, we absolutely cannot spread this rumor! If it gets more than five hundred shares, something big will happen!"
Compared to focusing on the incident itself, Xia Weiliang's fans once again successfully broke out of their bubble with their own brand of wit.
For Xia Weiliang, downplaying the kidnapping case was ultimately a good thing. It wouldn't cause unnecessary trouble for the police and could also dilute her "victim" label.
The incident happened, and it happened. Her attention was now focused on the Liu family.
Xia Chengye had already instructed his legal team to handle the matter discreetly while seeking justice!
The litigation process was straightforward, especially since the Liu family had participated in numerous interview programs before, and Bao Fang had publicly admitted to fabricating the DNA report. It wouldn't be difficult to send both her and her husband to prison.
Just after dinner, Xia Xiaoqiu mysteriously called Xia Weiliang out.
"Someone wants to see you."
"Who?"
Xia Xiaoqiu led her to the residential area's green belt and pulled out the person crouching behind a tree.
"Yaozong?"
"Sister Weiliang... I know this isn't the right time to come see you."
Liu Yaozong was guilt-ridden and embarrassed, his head bowed, not daring to look up. "I've only come to ask one thing: can you not send my mother to jail? Her health is very frail... Let me serve time for her instead! It doesn't matter how many years, I'm fine with it!"
Xia Weiliang looked at him, sighing with emotion.
After serving time for Xia Yiran, and now wanting to serve time for his mother, Liu Yaozong truly possessed a pure heart!
"I don't want anyone to go to jail; I just want justice. With justice served, no one will be able to slander me again!"
Liu Yaozong sighed softly, "But my mother doesn't think that way. Even if you don't press charges, she's going to turn herself in."
Xia Weiliang paused. "She..."
"She says it has become a chronic worry for her. She just wants to live the rest of her life with a clear conscience and without regret. But I'm afraid she can't handle it!"
Xia Weiliang pondered for a long time before looking up at him and slowly saying, "In that case, let's proceed according to the law."
Liu Yaozong looked at her, wanting to speak but stopping himself. In the end, he left without saying anything else.
Xia Xiaoqiu also shook her head helplessly. "I wouldn't have thought it, but this foolish boy is quite filial, and his values aren't completely skewed."
Xia Weiliang turned to walk back. "Bao Fang's insistence on doing this is largely for his sake."
"Why?" Xia Xiaoqiu didn't understand and quickly caught up.
"Bao Fang and Liu Wan Quan failed in the past, causing their children to stray for a period of time. Now, she just wants her son to know that some mistakes cannot be made, and if they are, there must be consequences. There's no room for luck."
Xia Xiaoqiu mused, "Hmm, that makes sense."
Looking at her cousin, she couldn't help but tease, "Cousin, you look like you've been through so much!"
"Do I?" Xia Weiliang unconsciously touched her exquisitely beautiful face. "I still look so vibrant!"
Xia Xiaoqiu rolled her eyes. "Fine, I misspoke, okay?"
"That won't do! I'm being serious!" Su Dan Novel Network
The sisters went home, chatting and laughing.
On the other side, Xia Yiran was in the bathroom, vomiting uncontrollably.
That damned Han Jian Yue, he kept pouring wine down her throat, bottle after bottle. Did he think she was a wine barrel?
"Miss Xia? Are you alright?"
Han Jian Yue was outside the bathroom, his voice laced with an overly oily concern.
"Ah, I'm fine, I'm great."
Xia Yiran emerged from the bathroom, about to say some words of thanks, when her legs suddenly gave out, and she fell into the man's arms.
The entire process was so natural, as if it were truly happening!
Han Jian Yue was also an experienced man; he could tell whether someone was genuine or fake at a glance. Therefore, seeing her effort in acting, he decided to play along. "How can you be so careless? Are you hurt? Shall I give you a full body check-up right now?"
Xia Yiran, suppressing the urge to vomit, playfully hit his chest in his arms. "It's all your fault. Everyone said I shouldn't drink anymore, yet you kept pouring me glass after glass. Anyone would think you intentionally got me drunk to do something bad~"
The implication was quite clear.
