Chapter 93: The Battle Begins 3
If Xia Chenge’s previous two Weibo posts were merely insignificant clarifications, then this one was a complete counterattack.
The high-definition video clearly showed Xia Minglan yelling at her parents, spewing all sorts of unspeakable insults, as if she were facing a bunch of useless freeloaders.
This video was identical to the one leaked some time ago, except this version was longer, making the cause and progression of events much clearer, rather than being a selectively edited clip.
Suddenly, a large portion of those who had attacked Xia Chenge vanished.
There was no more convincing evidence than this video to prove that Xia Chenge and the two elderly members of the Xia family were the ones being abused, not that Xia Chenge’s poor mental state was threatening Xia Minglan’s family’s safety, as spread online.
This video pushed the scandal surrounding Xia Chenge to a fever pitch:
It’s truly terrifying when the perpetrator cries foul. The world of wealthy families is too deep; I’m waiting for more explosive revelations. I’m on Xia Chenge’s side this time and hope she continues to fight back.
To witness such drama in my lifetime, it seems the deaths of Xia Chenge’s parents back then were also not simple. Wealthy families are indeed terrifying, a battlefield where no blood is shed.
Xia Minglan is so scary. Those were her own parents, and for some reason, I’m trembling.
It’s chilling to think about. I fear there are many more unknown secrets within this. I suddenly feel that it wasn’t easy for Xia Chenge to survive until now. I can understand why she pretended to be crazy and foolish before.
…
The netizens’ analyses are always so spot-on, even bringing up the deaths of Xia Mingxuan and his wife.
This is exactly what Xia Chenge wanted. Otherwise, why would she have exposed the internal conflicts of the Xia family for everyone to watch?
Xia Minglan and Xu Jingyun could no longer sit still.
Xu Jingyun was the first to post on Weibo, directly accusing Xia Chenge of being deeply scheming and deliberately editing videos to mislead public opinion. She also put on a pitiful act, portraying herself as the victim.
Jingyun Baby Mwah Mwah: Some people will go to any lengths for profit. Heaven’s will turns, and the heavens will have their say. I only ask for a clear conscience. What does it matter if I suffer some grievances? Being stabbed by those I care about is truly worse than death.
Since Xu Jingyun had always maintained a persona of being beautiful, kind, and a beautiful, rich, and young woman, often sharing skincare tips and recommending cosmetics on various social media platforms, she still had a large following.
Therefore, as soon as she posted on Weibo, her fans began to sympathize with her, comfort her, and flood Xia Chenge’s Weibo with comments, fabricating baseless accusations and even attacking Xia Chenge with claims of abortion.
Seeing this, Xia Chenge found it amusing.
She really didn’t fall for the tactics used in fan culture.
Queen Xia Chenge: @Jingyun Baby Mwah Mwah, keep it simple, be honest. Like me, directly tag you and fight you!
This move, in turn, provoked the fanatical attacks of Xu Jingyun’s brain-dead fans:
Have some shame, you abortionist! Aren’t you afraid the child you aborted will come to find you in the middle of the night?
Is it easy to gain popularity? You waste of space, brain-dead Xia Chenge, you’re not even qualified to carry Jingyun’s shoes. Even if you lived ten more lifetimes, you wouldn’t catch up to our Jingyun Baby. Dogs and humans cannot be compared.
The green tea bitch couldn’t get an invitation to Young Master Ling’s birthday banquet, so she’s running around like a mad dog, biting everyone. Oh dear, I’m so scared of getting rabies.
So what if our Jingyun Baby is more outstanding than you? Are you jealous? Try being a better person in your next life, nya nya nya.
…
Xia Chenge glanced at the time; it was already past one in the afternoon. Remembering that Ling Hanmu said he would pick her up at two, she packed her things and prepared to go home.
As soon as she got out of the teaching building and reached the flower bed, Xia Chenge vaguely heard the commotion outside the school gate.
She paused, listened intently for a moment, and realized that the people outside the school gate were repeatedly mentioning Xia Chenge, mockery, and invitations, seemingly all directed at her.
Xia Chenge’s eyes flickered, and she immediately turned and walked in the opposite direction.
Meanwhile, the people outside the school gate were waiting for Xia Chenge to come out.
“Stop Xia Chenge later. Don’t let Xia Chenge go home, lest she uses some trick to sneak into Young Master Ling’s birthday banquet again.”
“Xia Chenge is bullying people so much. We must let her see the power of Jingyun Baby’s fans.”
“Weren’t people spreading rumors that Ling Hanmu took good care of her a while ago? Now she can’t even get an invitation. This is truly the joke of the year.”
“Strange, didn’t they say she came out? Why haven’t we seen her yet?”
…
The group chattered amongst themselves, craning their necks to peer into Yan Sheng High School, but they never saw anyone emerge.
No one knew that Xia Chenge had quietly left Yan Sheng High School and was now standing behind them, looking at them with a mocking expression.
Who on earth had given them the idea to insult her by bringing up the matter of not receiving an invitation?
The Xia family’s driver was already waiting outside the school. After Xia Chenge got into the car, she rolled down the window and shouted at the group, “Hey, were you waiting for me?”
Hearing the sound, everyone turned around. Xia Chenge, however, smiled and waved at them, “Goodbye, little darlings. You won’t have the chance to see me make a fool of myself!”
With that, the driver sped away. When the group rushed over, they could only stomp their feet, their faces ashen, watching the car disappear into the distance.
When Xia Chenge returned home, Ling Hanmu was surprisingly waiting for her in her living room.
“Little Brother, you’re ten minutes late,” Ling Hanmu said with a smile as he stood up and looked at his watch.
Xia Chenge raised an eyebrow slightly, “If you could avoid being late after being blocked by a crowd at the school gate, you’d truly be a god.”
Ling Hanmu had been keeping track of Xia Chenge’s every move and was naturally aware of what happened at school.
“The grievances you’ve suffered during this time will be repaid later. What’s the harm in enduring them for now? Although I want to teach them a lesson immediately, Little Brother likes to boil a frog slowly, so we’ll teach them a lesson using Little Brother’s method.”
“Hurry up and get your dress. We’re going somewhere first,” Ling Hanmu urged her upstairs.
Xia Chenge had no choice but to go upstairs.
The smile on Ling Hanmu’s face vanished completely, and a terrifying killing intent flashed in his eyes.
These people were truly becoming more and more presumptuous, treating his words as if they were mere whispers!
He let out a cold smile and sent out a message.
Before long, explosive news suddenly appeared online: The Ling family would announce their engagement at Ling Hanmu’s birthday banquet. It was rumored that Ling Hanmu’s fiancée had a complex relationship with him and was a certain young lady who had recently been making waves in Haicheng.
This news sent the entire internet into a frenzy.
Xu Jingyun, who was planning to reveal Ling Hanmu’s fiancée’s identity, was overjoyed upon seeing this news, feeling as though heaven itself was helping her.
Since Xia Chenge was so shameless, why should she hold back?
Xu Jingyun secretly found someone to spread rumors: The Ling family’s Old Master had once betrothed her to Ling Hanmu with the Xia family’s Old Master. Ling Hanmu’s fiancée was her. At the same time, she used this opportunity to whitewash herself, claiming Xia Chenge was simply jealous and was spreading rumors and slandering her online out of madness.
