After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Chapter 140

At this moment backstage, Pei Mingxuan stood beside Yu Rouyin with a look of satisfaction and affection, protecting her from disturbances. It seemed she had finally found a promising talent she could wholeheartedly nurture, and she couldn't wait to cherish and support her.

Moreover, the online situation was even better than Pei Mingxuan had anticipated. She knew all of this was due to Yu Rouyin's groundbreaking acting skills.

The Qin family had also arrived. Seeing Ji Fei and Qin Xian sitting together, they smiled approvingly.

Qin Zhao leaned tiredly against the wall, talking to Qin Xian. He was perceptive enough to know that someone must have approached Qin Xian.

Qin Xian simply said, "Don't worry."

Meanwhile, Ji Fei was quietly gossiping with the Qin family women about the various rumors circulating online.

Just then, the annoying uncle and nephew pair showed up.

All eyes turned to them, faces barely concealing excitement at the prospect of drama unfolding.

[Look at their complexion, whiter than someone dead for three days. I bet even the veteran actor Zong Chun didn't expect Yu Rouyin's acting to be this good. Indeed, talent is the ultimate weapon.]

The Qin family: They really do look deathly pale.

But before they could reach Yu Rouyin, the director and producer arrived.

"Mr. Zong, we were just looking for you..." the director began.

Seeing the two, Zong Chun remembered the upcoming event and reluctantly stepped forward, saying, "I think we can go on stage and perform..."

He had lost his bargaining chip, and Yu Rouyin had made a spectacular comeback. He and Yu Rouyin were now at odds.

If she were to spread rumors later about him not performing, it would cause trouble. Although he was furious and wanted to tear her apart, he had to do something at this moment.

However, the producer smiled and said, "Mr. Zong, you don't need to perform anymore."

Zong Chun's expression froze. "How can that be? This is a competition."

"But Ms. Yu looks exhausted, clearly unable to continue performing," the director said with a cold smile. "She doesn't need to... perform anymore."

Zong Chun's face changed, and he was about to argue when the producer interrupted, "We've already adjusted the program according to the audience's expectations. Besides, initially it was Mr. Zong who couldn't go on stage. We can't always accommodate your situation."

The onlookers nearly burst out laughing.

[Exactly, they don't owe you anything. How can you expect to perform just because you say so? Moreover, the director and producer aren't fools. Can't they see that you're using their show as a tool to manipulate women?]

The Qin family held back their laughter at Ji Fei's sarcastic comments.

Perhaps the surrounding gazes were too intense, and Zong Chun couldn't bear it anymore. Losing face in such a situation, he angrily said, "What does this mean? Does it mean I won't be appearing in any future live broadcasts either?"

Zong Chun still wanted to use the threat of quitting to pressure the production team.

But the director and producer looked at him with expressionless faces, as if to say: Losing one group in a live broadcast was their fate, and they had already accepted it.

[Threatening with that, hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. He'll soon find out that he really won't need to appear anymore. The netizens have already started protesting, firmly opposing him and Yu Rouyin participating in this show together. I bet it won't be long before it trends on social media. Indeed, when netizens strike, no one is spared.]

Upon hearing this, the Qin family, who had been watching the confrontation, became curious. How could this be?

After all, regardless of what despicable things Zong Chun had done in private, he still maintained a false facade. The netizens shouldn't know about his situation with Yu Rouyin.

They were dying of curiosity, but Ji Fei's inner thoughts were focused on gloating and didn't explain the reason.

Everyone had to take matters into their own hands and quickly searched on their phones.

The results nearly made them laugh their heads off.

It turned out that because the "wife squad" had suffered heavy losses, they saw that Zong Chun and Madam Zong were unscathed and immediately felt they had been used as pawns.

When they were questioned about how they still had the nerve to come together to boycott Yu Rouyin, someone couldn't resist dragging Madam Zong down with them.

They declared that this time it was all instigated by Madam Zong because her husband, Zong Chun, wanted to divorce her for Yu Rouyin!

The exposure of this incident naturally caused a huge uproar. But today's netizens were not the same as before; they were now Nuohuolu·Netizens (a playful term implying they were now more discerning and powerful).

With so many revelations tonight, they had accumulated several rounds of experience and could piece together the truth in a matter of minutes.

"Please, don't tell me you're going to say our beautiful Yu seduced your old Zong and made him want to divorce you. I'm dying of laughter! With our Yu's acting skills and looks, why would she be interested in your old Zong? Is it for his old age or his parasitic lifestyle?"

"It must be Mr. Zong coveting our beautiful Yu's looks, that's why he wants a divorce, right? But what does this have to do with our Yu?"

"You can't control your own man, but you're good at bullying the weak and fearing the strong, causing trouble for an innocent woman. Women like you who can't distinguish right from wrong should have your 'woman card' revoked!"

"Folks, I suddenly remembered the video that trended earlier. It seems the mastermind behind this is quite obvious now."

"Come to think of it, you're right. Someone released a script that seems to be Yu's original performance script. If you compare it with the video, the situation is unimaginable."

The script was about a story of national affairs, a confidante, and a tragedy of dying for a friend in troubled times. It transcended the relationship between men and women, aiming to prove the concept of a 'female confidante', as this term is often used in a derogatory context in modern times.

Yu Rouyin's goal was to use her appearance and acting skills to create a contrast, proving that even with her looks of a femme fatale, she could meet a kindred spirit who understood and trusted her, and their relationship would be free of ulterior motives or ambiguity.

If she could achieve that effect, it would be the strongest proof of her acting skills.

The video Madam Zong created showed a mistress affectedly using her status as a female confidante to curry favor with a man, subtly pressuring and provoking the man's original wife. The man was only interested in romance with the female confidante, completely ignoring his suffering wife. In the end, the original wife was forced into a pitiful state before exposing the true nature of the female confidante.

The minor plot points all corresponded to the script, making it easy for people to compare.

But now it had become a joke, also proving that Madam Zong was indeed involved in the joint boycott.

"Indeed, the judge of the entertainment industry punishes all sins, letting you face the consequences of your black-hearted attempts to harm others."

Seeing the online abuse directed at her, Madam Zong finally cracked. She never imagined she would face cyberbullying one day. Not only her, but even her family background was dug up by netizens, and various relatives had started calling to check on her.

She turned pale, at a loss for what to do, and wanted to call her husband.

However, netizens began to speculate on the reason why Zong Chun wasn't performing, and someone quickly analyzed it.

"Is it because he planned to propose to Yu after the divorce, but Yu refused, so he's teaching her a lesson and threatening her? Otherwise, the events of tonight don't make any logical sense!"

"Folks, we're waiting outside the live broadcast hall with other fans right now, and from beginning to end, we haven't seen any ambulance or Zong Chun coming out. I really don't believe he's too sick to perform!"

"Damn, that's disgusting. Old men should stay away."

Madam Zong was stunned seeing these comments.

Meanwhile, Zong Chun was still stupidly trying to argue with the director and producer.

Qin Zhao, having seen the online trends, couldn't resist stirring up more trouble: "Mr. Zong, you'd better check the online sentiment. The director not letting you perform now is actually for your own good, to save you from ruining your reputation in your twilight years."

[Pfft... It spread so quickly indeed. But Qin Zhao's words... 'perform', his reputation is already ruined!]

Zong Chun was taken aback and anxiously took out his phone to check. As he looked, his pupils constricted in shock.
