Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xia Jinmeng didn’t understand what Lin Shanchu meant and replied, “But I’m not your ancestor.”

The smile on Lin Shanchu’s face instantly disappeared. Her expression turned cold and her voice chilled to the bone.

The room, which was already adequately air-conditioned, became even colder.

Unconsciously, Xia Jinmeng touched her arm, feeling goosebumps appear on it.

“An-Anyway, no matter what, we’re both in the same boat now. You should be considerate of my feelings…”

Xia Jinmeng initially spoke confidently. But as she made eye contact with Lin Shanchu, her confidence gradually faded and her voice weakened.

“Only true saints would be able to compromise and sacrifice themselves without demanding anything and return.”

Lin Shanchu stared directly into Xia Jinmeng’s eyes as she spoke and took a step closer.

With only a foot’s worth of space between the two of them, Xia Jinmeng could only step back.

She began to regret reporting Lin Shanchu.

Lin Shanchu was acting crazy and she might actually be mentally unstable.

Crazy people could do anything.

And they don’t have to face legal consequences.

Xia Jinmeng grew increasingly anxious as she thought about it.

She kept retreating until she was forced into a corner.

Only then did Lin Shanchu stop?

She continued, “But… I am not a saint. I am not patient and I have a bad temper, so…”

Lin Shanchu paused briefly to admire Xia Jinmeng’s expression.

Xia Jinmeng could barely maintain her composure. Her lips were tightly pursed as her eyes widened in panic.

In this world, some people could bully the kind but fear the wicked.

Lin Shanchu smirked, leaned close to Xia Jinmeng’s ear, and completed her sentence in a whisper, “…Don’t mess with me.”

Xia Jinmeng could feel a familiar chill creeping all over her body.

“Xia Jinmeng?”

Yun Wu pushed the door open and entered. When she saw Xia Jinmeng in the dormitory, her face darkened.

‘What are you doing?”

Yun Wu quickly walked over and positioned herself in front of Lin Shanchu, staring at Xia Jinmeng with a guarded expression.

She was looking at her as if she was a villain with a record of evil schemes.

“What can I do to her?” Xia Jinmeng laughed sarcastically, “What would I dare to do to her?”

Lin Shanchu was clearly the one threatening her!

Yun Wu still looked skeptical, as if she didn’t believe Xia Jinmeng.

Xia Jinmeng was a little angry, but she did not dare to say anything to Lin Shanchu.

She looked at Yun Wu angrily, “Weren’t you two the ones who were scheming against me in the live broadcast room just now? I’m the victim here!”

Yun Wu raised her eyebrows and spat back, “The one who flirts first is the skank.”

Xia Jinmeng was at a loss for words.

She couldn’t understand why someone would protect a lunatic like Lin

Shanchu.

But, again, she couldn’t do anything about these two, so she just left in frustration.

Once Xia Jinmeng was gone, Yun Wu asked Lin Shanchu with a concerned look, “Was she bullying you?

Lin Shanchu thought for a moment.

She was the one bullying Xia Jinmeng.

But she was not about to admit that.

So, she just said, “I’m not afraid of her.”

Lin Shanchu’s reply was vague, but from Yun Wu’s point of view, it sounds as if Xia Jinmeng bullied her.

“If she causes any more trouble, she’ll suffer a great loss sooner or later, ” Yun Wu said thoughtfully.

After this live broadcast event, the production crew bought a slot on the list of trending topics for the upcoming interactive segment between the contestants and fans.

Such segments that showcased the contestant’s personalities were likely to attract more fans.

As for Lin Shanchu, her rabbit dance segment didn’t even need the production crew’s help to get a spot on the ranking list. Her popularity was the one that pushed her segment to the top.

Following closely behind was #LinShanchuWas ReportedFor NotLendingXiaJinmengHerPhone.

However, this was not the work of Lin Shanchu and Xia Jinmeng’s fans.

It was the gossip-loving netizens who helped to push it to the top. The director smiled as he brought this data to Nan Mu to ask for credit.

“President Nan, look, isn’t the popularity skyrocketing?”

President Nan nodded casually, then said very seriously, “Frequent appearance of artists in trending searches can cause people to resent them. Let’s suppress the trending topics a bit, shall we?”

“Whose topic are you thinking of suppressing?”

“Lin Shanchu.”

“What?”

The director looked at Nan Mu with an expression that said ‘Are you crazy?’ and asked, “Why do you want to suppress someone who has solely earned their way up the search bar from just using their abilities?”

“I’m doing this for Lin Shanchu’s good. I’m prepared to support her…”

“Even without appearing on the trending searches in the past, she still had a lot of haters doesn’t she?”

Nan Mu fell silent.

The director continued, “People who hate her won’t suddenly like her just because she stops being trending…”

Song Yiming suddenly came to a realization, “President Nan, you… You want to suppress the trending search because of something else, right?” “Is it because of pressure from Lu Shiyuan?” he asked tentatively.

Men were possessive of their women to some extent.

Lin Shanchu’s bunny girl costume was popular even among young girls, let alone the Internet…

“Just from him?” Nan Mu snorted and gave Song Yiming a self-explanatory look.

Song Yiming wanted to say something more, but Nan Mu quickly chased him away.

“Go and get busy. The guests will be arriving in a few days and by that time, we will have to start up the show again. The finals are just around the corner. Keep up the good work…’

Nan hurriedly shooed Song Yiming out.

After closing the door, he paced back and forth in the room.

“Should I… make a call to find out?”

With that thought, Nan Mu took out his phone and called Huo Xunzhou.

It took a while before someone finally answered the call.

“Big Brother is busy.”

It was Li MO who answered.

Seeing Nan Mu’s name on the screen, he didn’t even bother with the formalities.

Nan made a sound and said nonchalantly, “Still busy?”

“What is it?” Li MO thought Nan Mu had something urgent to discuss with Huo Xunzhou.

Nan Mu laughed dryly and pretended to sound relaxed, “It’s nothing. It’s just that we haven’t been in touch for a few days, so I thought I’d call and see how things are going with Xunzhou. Is everything going smoothly there?”

Li MO vaguely felt that Nan was acting strangely, but he wasn’t one to think too much.

They both held different opinions regarding Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu’s marriage, but Nan Mu was genuinely concerned for Huo Xunzhou.

Li Mot s tone softened a bit, “When Big Brother is done with his busy schedule, I’ll have him call you.”

“No need, let him be busy. After he’s done, tell him to rest well and not stay up late playing with his phone…” Nan Mu instructed Li MO seriously.

“Alright.” Li MO was a little touched. Nan Mu was so concerned about his big brother.

Hanging up the phone, Nan Mu heaved a sigh of relief.

It was good that Huo Xunzhou was busy.

When he’s busy, he didn’t have time to go online.

If he wasn’t online, he wouldn’t have seen the video of Lin Shanchu doing the rabbit dance.

The entertainment industry was never short on news reports.

At most, Lin Shanchu’s trending searches would be completely drowned out by other upcoming news within three days.

As long as Huo Xunzhou didn’t find out about this for the time being, Nan Mu could rest assured.

The program had gained a momentary surge in popularity and no one got hurt.

Nan Mu couldn’t help but feel happy when he thought of this.

Huo Xunzhou came out of the room and Li MO handed him his phone.

“Someone’s called me?” Huo Xunzhou asked as he received it. He had heard Li MO talking on the phone inside just now.

“Nan Mu called,” Li MO replied.

“What’s the matter?” Huo Xunzhou knew that Nan Mu wouldn’t call him unless something happened.

“It’s nothing. He just called to ask about your situation and show concern about you..”
