Chapter 1406 - Public Opinions Common Enemy



Beside her, Wei Lingnan’s voice was hoarse. “Didn’t you hear her? She has no more connection to you.”

“Why?” Jiang Yu was unable to accept this reality. He looked at Xia Yingluo with a hurt expression. “Everything was okay during the fan meet. Why did things change so suddenly? Is it because of him?” He pointed at Wei Lingnan.

Xia Yingluo fell silent before she said, “Even without him, we can’t be together.” She only agreed to Jiang Yu’s proposal to spite Wei Lingnan, it had nothing to do with Jiang Yu. She was wrong and should not have been so selfish because it caused Jiang Yu a lot of pain.

Jiang Yu was a little emotional. “So it is because of him. Yingluo, you should know what sort of person he is. He ditched you a long time ago to be with Gu Jinxiu! Now, he’s pestering you again and I don’t see how you can feel secure!”

“You don’t have to care about whether she feels secure.” Wei Lingnan smiled coldly. “What right do you have to fight with me?”

Jiang Yu glared at him and suddenly remembered something. “No wonder you said those words at the hospital that day. Do you think you have more power than me? You... you created that revolutionary drug to combat cancer a long time ago, right?! You only released it to the public at this time to steal Yingluo away from me! Yingluo, don’t be with this despicable man. He only released a new drug to gain publicity!”

Xia Yingluo knitted her brows. Even though she felt a little guilty for Jiang Yu’s feelings, her patience was wearing thin.

She faintly said, “Jiang Yu, calm down. I’ll visit you next time and apologize to you again.”

She turned around and said to Wei Lingnan, “Let’s go.”

Wei Lingnan glanced at Jiang Yu and a smile curved on his lips as he walked away with Xia Yingluo.

The night breeze was slightly cool and the stars flickered in the summer night.

Xia Yingluo walked along the streets which were filled with traffic. After a long time, she asked Wei Lingnan, “Was I very cruel?”

Wei Lingnan said, “No.”

She glanced at him.

He said, “You can’t let someone like Jiang Yu have any delusions.”

She laughed. “What about you?”

He stopped talking and walked silently along the street with her for a long time before saying, “You’re very cruel to me.”

“Stop using honorifics.” She said coldly, “Anyway, you’ve stopped respecting me as queen a long time ago.”

He lowered his head slightly and tolerated her scolding. At this point, he was already satisfied that he was able to stand so close to her. After the major conflict that happened a few days ago, their relationship was almost broken and he put in a lot of effort before he could walk with her again.

Step by step. He believed that he would get everything he wanted one day.

Xia Yingluo returned home. The next day, Tan Ying visited her with an annoyed look. “What happened? The news this morning was so ground shattering! It said that Jiang Yu provoked Wei Lingnan! This is related to you, right?”

Xia Yingluo was just awoken by her servant. The first thing she saw was Tan Ying and she lazily yawned. “What news?”

“Don’t act stupid!” Tan Ying was furious. “The news said that Jiang Yu mocked Wei Lingnan’s newly developed anti-cancer drug! There are also videos being spread on the internet. Although the angles are bad and only Wei Lingnan and Jiang Yu can be seen, I can see the corner of your shirt! You were also at the scene!”

Only then was Xia Yingluo fully awake. “What? Someone secretly filmed what happened yesterday?!”

She did not even notice it, and so did Wei Lingnan! After learning battle skills from Skatana Planet, it was simply unthinkable for both of them to not spot a person lurking nearby.

Tan Ying was about to blow his top. “Why do you always have to cause trouble?! Jiang Yu is being dragged down by all the netizens right now! They said that he’s useless, just an act, is jealous that Wei Lingnan became famous overnight and is jealous that Wei Lingnan contributed to humanity!”

Xia Yingluo’s expression became stern. She realized how serious the incident was.

In this world, no matter how much you joked or cursed, there were some moral limits. For example, a life-saving anti-cancer drug that could save countless human lives. If someone from the entertainment industry mocked it, it would definitely cause an outrage. At the end of the day, humanity could survive without Jiang Yu, but without Wei Lingnan’s drug, many lives would vanish! They did not care about Jiang Yu’s distress or why he suddenly blurted those words. They only saw a loser who looked down on their life-saving drug!

Jiang Yu was in deep trouble.

“What’s the situation?” She asked Tan Ying.

“Uncontrollable.” Tan Ying said, “Jiang Yu’s public relations is strong in managing the public crisis. The first thing they did was release an apology statement, but someone was definitely making things difficult for them because they did not give him any chance to explain himself. The attacks from the public just got worse and his name is tarnished. After working hard for years to be a big movie star, if this is not managed well, I’m afraid his career will be destroyed.”

Xia Yingluo was speechless.

Tan Ying said, “Now, you are going to tell me what exactly happened last time. We will take the opportunity to create some measures before the fire spreads to you. After Jiang Yu is destroyed, he may just drag you down with him. This topic will determine your life and death, and if you’re involved, your career will die.”

Xia Yingluo said, “I won’t be dragged into it.”

Tan Ying looked at her and immediately understood what happened. He smiled provocatively. “I knew it. Wei Lingnan did this?”

She lightly nodded. This was the most reasonable and only explanation. Only he could assign someone to film the scene from a distance that would not be noticed and deliberately cut her from the video. Thinking about this, the reason why he asked her to look for him at the rooftop, the way he guided her downstairs, the accident in the carpark, being chased by the fans and ending up in that secluded green patch...

Everything seemed to be planned by him.

His intention was to deal with Jiang Yu.

“I was the one who burdened Jiang Yu.” She said, “I will help him with this matter.” This time, Jiang Yu was suffering from an undeserved catastrophe. Liking her and chasing after her were nothing bad and he should not be treated like this.

Tan Ying was about to go crazy. “Help him? Are you trying to become enemies with public opinion?!”

“It’s not a big deal.” Xia Yingluo coldly said, “To err is human. Besides, it’s not wrong for Jiang Yu to say that Wei Lingnan was just trying to gain publicity. There are so many scandals of celebrities in the entertainment industry that are settled in the end. I don’t believe that this won’t end!”

“Miss, you are already too busy to interfere in other people’s business!”

“I will warn Wei Lingnan to not take further action.” Xia Yingluo said, “As for dealing with the current negative impact? I don’t think he will be willing to do so. As such, Uncle Tan, we only have to be responsible for helping Jiang Yu eliminate negative news. Besides that, we shouldn’t intervene too much. You already said that Jiang Yu’s public relations team is strong and as long as Wei Lingnan doesn’t give them more trouble, he should be able to handle it himself.”

However, Tan Ying disagreed. “If it were as simple as that, why would Wei Lingnan launch the attack in the first place?”
