Chapter 53: 051 Strong Counterattack! [2 more]

Old Master Zhong never expected that a routine pre-sleep surf of the web would reveal a trending search that nearly gave him a heart attack.

They said his granddaughter was seducing Jiang Moyuan?

He spat out in disdain!

Almost in his thirties, that old man, only an older woman would fancy him.

Old Master Zhong immediately demanded the social media management team give him the password, and he went straight online to curse them out.

The old man had a fiery temper when he was young, and it only got more explosive with age, especially when it came to protecting his own.

How could he hold back?

It was common knowledge that the Zhong Family and the Ying Family were relatives.

When the Zhong Family spoke out like this, fans of Ying Luwei were somewhat dumbfounded.

[Has Zhong Corporation gone mad? Why are they speaking up for a fake rich girl?]

[Could there be some… shady deal?]

[Is this because she couldn’t seduce our brother-in-law, so she went after some high-level exec at Zhong Corporation instead?]

[And they say we’re spreading rumors, the photos are right there, how is this making up rumours? If it’s a rumor, let her sue us then.]

The more Old Master Zhong read, the angrier he became, his heart nearly exploding from the rage.

He was preparing to post another Weibo when a call came in.

Old Master Zhong, too anxious to be angry, immediately picked up: “Zijin, you haven’t looked at Weibo, have you? Don’t look at it, those people are just trying to stir up trouble, don’t worry, Grandpa will take care of it for you.”

“Thanks, Grandpa, but I have my own ways to sort it out,” Ying Zijin had guessed that Old Master Zhong was the one who posted that Weibo, “You should go to bed early, don’t let it affect your health, I’m fine.”

Old Master Zhong went silent; after a long while, he finally said with sadness: “Zijin… Grandpa is sorry, he can’t help you prove your identity, it’s caused you, caused you…”

All he could say was that too much time had passed, and he found out too late.

Not to mention, the Ying Family had erased all traces of the past scandal to prevent it from being exposed.

Even if Old Master Zhong declared that Ying Zijin was his true granddaughter, without the Ying Family’s acknowledgment, he still had no way to prove it.

Not to mention, Old Master Zhong was getting on in years; although he still held many shares, his say was no longer absolute. Many in the Zhong Family were coveting his position, just waiting to catch him on a misstep.

It was precisely because Ying Zijin knew this that she stopped Old Master Zhong.

Compared to Old Master Zhong’s safety, the title of a true rich heiress was insignificant.

“How can you say that,” Ying Zijin lowered her eyes and smiled, “I still have a grandpa, which is really nice. You go to sleep, I’ll come to see you tomorrow evening.”

Old Master Zhong’s heart ached as he stared at the phone, rubbing his reddened eyes, managing to hold back his tears.

Sitting quietly for a good while, he slowly opened the drawer and took out a document.

It bore five words—

Share Transfer Agreement.

**

Public opinion had been fermenting all through the night and half of the next day, nearly reaching its peak.

Ying Zijin lazily looked at the new private messages in her Weibo inbox, yawning.

Perhaps because she wasn’t very familiar with the age of big data of the twenty-first century, she hadn’t anticipated that Ying Luwei’s fans would locate her new Weibo account just by identifying the dishes she used during meals.

Now, her inbox was full of insults from Ying Luwei’s fans, with no shortage of those sending ghost or corpse images.

If she had truly been a seventeen-year-old girl, she might have collapsed mentally under such insane cyberbullying.

“Damn, Daddy Ying, you’re too patient, how can you stand watching this?” Xiu Yu exploded with anger, “Have they seen the facts? I wish I could crawl through the internet cable and slap their faces crooked!”

Jiang Ran frowned, with a sour expression on his face, “I’ll have my mom go find Jiang Moyuan now and get him to clarify.”

They could suppress the rumors on the school forum, but Weibo was too crowded to control.

“He won’t,” Ying Zijin continued munching on her chips, “You don’t need to go.”

“So you’re just going to let yourself be insulted like this?” Jiang Ran slammed the table, his voice cold, “I don’t know who took that photo, but if I find out, I’m going to wreck them!”

Ying Feifei, who had come to gloat over Ying Zijin’s embarrassment, had just reached the door when she overheard this sentence.

She shuddered violently, halted the step she was taking, and fled from Class 19 as if running for her life.

Ying Zijin barely glanced up.

Xiu Yu suddenly nudged her in the side, “Daddy Ying, your Little Aunt Bai Lian has posted on Weibo.”

She pointed to the phone screen, which displayed a fresh Weibo post from Ying Luwei.

[ @Ying Luwei V: I’m sorry, I never thought things would turn out this way, please leave me alone for a while. I can’t cope right now, thank you all. [Crying]]

Her fans were heartbroken.

[Sister, don’t cry. It’s not too late to realize the truth. ]

[Wuwuwu, my heart aches, the one who is the most upset must be Luwei, how could she imagine her own niece betraying her.]

A minute later, the silent Ying Corporation retweeted the post.

[ @Ying Corporation V: We will definitely give Miss Luwei an explanation. ]

Looking at these two Weibo posts, Ying Zijin’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly as she tapped the table, “Alright, now you can post it.”

Xiu Yu acted swiftly, immediately sending out the pre-edited Weibo post.

[ @PleaseDoNotDisturbSeniors: For the last time, stop bothering me, thank you. [Video]]

The fans, gearing up for a new round of abuse, saw the new Weibo post as soon as they came in.

The video was high-definition, at 1080p, with noise reduction applied to the audio.

To ensure that the viewers could see clearly and hear clearly.

So, the fans that clicked in saw how the girl had poured cola over Jiang Moyuan’s body, how she had tossed a bank card to him, and heard her use a cool and unhurried voice to speak.

“I wish you and your Little Aunt a hundred years of happiness and early offspring.”

“I don’t know how I gave Uncle Jiang the wrong impression for you to think I have feelings for you. Let me set this straight now, and in the future, don’t flatter yourself.”

“I don’t like you, I don’t want to see you, and please tell your fiancee to stop bothering me. Leave me in peace.”

The fans’ minds buzzed, stupefied: “…”

But before they could collect themselves, another Weibo post arrived.

[ @PleaseDoNotDisturbSeniors: Cyberbullies, abusers, those sending ghost images and corpse photos, all fan accounts have been submitted to the police. ]

At the same time, the leading law firm in the Imperial City also posted on Weibo.

[ @West Wind Law Firm V: Appointed by Miss Ying Zijin, West Wind Law Firm will take full responsibility for this incident and provide Miss Ying with legal services.

The internet is not a lawless place; everyone must be responsible for their words and actions, and offenders must be severely punished by the law.

Miss Ying says, even if they are young, she will sue them. There’s no other purpose but to ensure that they’re barred from public service, honors, school scholarships for life, and to carry a criminal record forever, paying the price for their misdeeds. ]

Below was a long list of fan IDs.

At the top of the list was the official fan club of Ying Luwei.
