Gu Li:”???”
When she clicked on this topic, she saw that the views were very low. Evidently, someone bought this trending topic to slander her.
Quickly scanning through the buzz, Gu Li finally understood what was going on.
The incident started when Cheng Ying posted a subtle apology on her blog, mentioning Gu Li.
Originally, not many people had paid attention, but soon so-called netizens dug up the fact that she had appeared on the show “Charming Female Stars”, and linked it to her recent popular comic “Beautiful Master”.
So, various armies of trolls began to bombard her, calling her irresponsible and unprofessional, criticizing her for having time to participate in shows but not to update her comics, and so on.
Gu Li smirked.
Ironically, her comic had officially concluded just past midnight. These people didn’t even verify the most basic facts and wanted to smear her? Are they stupid?
Such low tactics didn’t even warrant her response.
In any case, she knew it wouldn’t be long before sympathizing netizens came to her defense, which would probably bring her another wave of free popularity.
As she expected, not long after the darkened trending topic appeared, public sentiment started to shift.
One by one, netizens came forward to speak on behalf of “A Sweet Pear” and promoting her tear-jerking classic masterpiece “Beautiful Master”.
More and more people, drawn by the buzz, raced to the C Station. That night, the number of views for “Beautiful Master” broke the station’s record and “A Sweet Pear”, the author, was once again a hot trend…
When Cheng Ying, the manipulator behind the scenes, learned of this, she was so angry she could spew blood.
Yet, for Gu Li, she only cared about how to prevent Mo Shiting from divorcing her, and had no regard for whether she was trending or not.
What should she do?
Lying in bed, the girl’s mind was filled with images of Mo Shiting.
In fact, she could understand his feelings. After all, how could such a high and mighty man like him accept her calculated approach?
His act of not drowning her in the sea after being deceived by her was already merciful enough.
Unable to fall sleep, she decided to search for answers online.
She typed in “how to stop husband from divorcing”, but the search results only offered useless advice.
Gu Li silently closed the webpage.
It seemed she had to use her last resort!
The next day.
At ten in the morning, Mo Shiting arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau on time.
Instead of going in, he parked his car at the entrance and called Gu Li.
After many rings, there was still no answer.
Mo Shiting furrowed his brows, a streak of shadow crossing his deep eyes.
Has she run away again?
Reluctantly, he dialed her number again, and this time, it connected.
“Hello…”
A husky voice sounded from the other end.
Mo Shiting was slightly startled, then heard her murmur unclearly: “Brother Ting…!…I’m feeling ill…”
Knowing she was full of tricks, Mo Shiting directly challenged her, “Are you still acting at a time like this?”
“Brother Ting, I’m really… sick…”
Ignoring his accusations, the girl responded in a fading voice.
Mo Shiting’s heart was surprisingly gripped with worry.
Yet, he consciously overlooked the hint of softness in his heart, and ordered authoritatively, “Whether you are feeling unwell or not, I want you to appear at the Civil Affairs Bureau right now!”
With that, he hung up the phone.
As she listened to the disconnected tone, Gu Li weakly set the phone aside, frustrated.
Actually, her last resort was to take an ice-cold bath for the whole night to make herself sick.
Unfortunately, she did get sick, but it did not evoke any sympathy from him.
She had no way to avoid the impending trip to the Civil Affairs Bureau today.
With this thought, Gu Li mustered the strength to get out of bed.
She dragged her feet towards the bathroom, but after a few steps, her vision went black. She collapsed to the floor in a heap..
