Chapter 32 - Imminent death warning: within the next ten minutes, please praise your wife's beauty for five minutes straight (3)

"You... you're awake?"

"En." Lu Lixing's sound came from his nose. He pushed his blanket aside and was about to get out of bed.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Lu Lixing looked at the desk by the window.

"No way!" Ji Qingqing pulled his blanket back up. "I promised Elder Lu that I would properly take care of you. You're sick right now. You don't have to do anything. You just need to say in bed and rest."

"I have something I have to do."

"Whatever you need to do, I'll do it for you." Ji Qingqing was very determined and wouldn't budge at all. "Elder Lu has been exhausted for so long because of your condition. Let him have peace of mind for a bit."

"Is grandpa okay?"

"He's okay. The doctor said that he's been too tired lately. He'll be fine after getting a good rest for a while."

Lu Lixing nodded. He silently stayed in bed to rest. Seeing the slight smile on Ji Qingqing's face that she couldn't hide, he asked, "Why are you so happy?"

"Do you remember how Shen Weiwei was going to sue me?" Ji Qingqing sat down at the edge of his bed. Her eyes had curved into happy crescents. She acted mysteriously by lowering her voice to confide, "The company has investigated and found out the truth for me. They even helped me out by issuing a clarifying statement. I won't need to pay her money or go to jail."

Seeing Ji Qingqing's smile, Lu Lixing smiled without realizing it. He remained silent.

"I'm sure that it's Elder Lu that helped me!" After saying this, Ji Qingqing impatiently opened her Weibo app.

Sure enough, there was a clarifying statement on Tianyu Entertainment's official Weibo account. However, this issue had been brewing for a month. Netizens had already soundly cursed out Ji Qingqing. They had said she was a vile and cruel woman.

At best, Ji Qingqing had only been a second-tier star in the entertainment circle. In the past years, she had leached off other actors' fame and stepped on other actresses to move up in her career. She had long been hated by those actresses' fans.

A month ago, Shen Weiwei's matter had been publicized. Under years of opposing each other with equal harshness, the fans of these actresses showed a rarely seen united front against Ji Qingqing. They aimed their fire at Ji Qingqing and almost stomped her into mud. They wanted nothing more than to step on Ji Qingqing a few more times so that there was no hope she could reverse her fortunes.

Ji Qingqing didn't have any real fans. She only had fake, purchased fans to bolster her Weibo popularity. Perhaps, there might be a few perceptive people that wouldn't accept things at face value, but they would become bombarded into cannon fodder by the mob mentality of the other netizens.

When Shen Weiwei had initially woke up after her fall, Meng Xun had purchased the services of marketing people to embellish the truth. Shen Weiwei, who had been a nobody actress, immediately jumped up in popularity from being a hot topic. Because of this incident, the number of her Weibo fans went up like mad, up to one million.

Of course, most of these new fans didn't actually like Shen Weiwei. They only cared about her because she was standing on Ji Qingqing's opposing side.

This incident had been discussed to death over the past month, so the interest over this topic had already started to wane. Very few people were still paying attention to the matter.

Shockingly, there had been a huge reversal in the story today!

Ji Qingqing read the comments on Tianyu Entertainment's official Weibo account. Shen Weiwei's comment had the most likes and reshares.

Shen Weiweivv: I'm very sorry about this matter. At the time, I really thought Miss Ji had pushed me. I feel very guilty about the trouble and complications this has caused Miss Ji in the past month. If Miss Ji wants to hold someone responsible, I'm willing to take sole responsibility.

Because of Shen Weiwei's comment, all of the comments below were comforting her.

[It's not your fault. Ji Qingqing was so aggressive in that video. It's because you were flustered by her that you accidentally fell. It's just a misunderstanding.]

[The situation recorded by the video was very clear. If Qingqing hadn't come looking for you, you wouldn't have fallen. It's not like anything happened to Ji Qingqing. You don't need to apologize to her.]

[Under those circumstances, anyone would have assumed that someone had pushed you. Beside, Ji Qingqing deserved it. The person who starts the fight is always at fault. If she hadn't come looking for you, nothing would have happened.]

Hey! What happened? The original owner was the most innocent one, okay?!
