After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity
Chapter 97 - 97 097 The Overbearing Mother-in-law Who isChapter 97: Chapter 097: The Overbearing Mother-in-law Who is Difficult to Get Along With Chapter 97: Chapter 097: The Overbearing Mother-in-law Who is Difficult to Get Along With No matter how irate Mu Jincheng got, those night owls who stayed up late clutching their phones and frantically scrolling didn’t hesitate to send this explosive scandal soaring to number three on the trending search list.
The agent hadn’t slept a wink and stumbled over himself to clear Mu Jincheng’s name from these baseless accusations.
The PR agency of the talent company was dragged out of bed in the wee hours, initially full of complaints.
But upon seeing the scandal on the list, they exclaimed, “Boy oh boy!”
This top influencer, Mu Jincheng, was reaching for the stars.

When netizens woke up and stumbled upon this trending news, their pupils dilated in shock!
Antifans with eyes wide, the next second they grabbed their keyboards, ready to lash out!
Mu Jincheng’s fans trembled as they tried their hardest to clear the muck slung at him.
Sadly, the more they tried to wash it away, the blacker the ink spread.
Director Li of the “Stratagem Sage” crew was forced to swallow this huge piece of slanderous gossip as soon as he woke up, feeling waves of darkness before his eyes and the faint taste of rankness in his mouth.
Chu Jinghe’s agent, Zhong Chi, rushed to the set and immediately said, “We need to distance ourselves from Mu Jincheng right away; stop fabricating all those ‘sweetheart CP’ stories.”
Chu Jinghe had also seen the trending search and still couldn’t believe that Mu Jincheng could be such a despicable person.
Deep down, she subconsciously defended him.
Given his status, he was bound to attract all kinds of jealousy.
Right.
It must be jealousy, someone resenting him enough to stoop this low to ruin him.
She hadn’t anticipated that the gossip about Shen Yan she had cared so much about yesterday would today turn to Mu Jincheng.
Faced with her agent’s decisive approach, Chu Jinghe was still struggling: “Maybe it’s just someone deliberately throwing dirt on him; let’s wait a bit more…”
“We can’t wait,” Zhong Chi knew Mu Jincheng’s status too, which is why he had previously allowed Chu Jinghe to generate buzz with him.
Now with the tide turning unfavorable, Chu Jinghe absolutely couldn’t get dragged down.
“Give me some more time to think…” she wanted to ask Mu Jincheng personally.

Inside a high-rise apartment.
Qi Si, clad only in a towel, ignored the chill wind blowing fiercely onto the balcony, picked up his phone, and saw the trending search on V-blog that he had figured out yesterday.
He tapped to open a series of photos that needed to be censored.
His handsome brow raised slightly.
Was this Shen Yan’s counterattack?
She really was willing to go that far.
Qi Si found himself staring at this trending news for over three minutes.
That was very unusual for him.
The trending search that made it to number one in the morning, followed by the word “explosive,” intrigued Qi Si in a novel way.
Or rather, strangely, it gave him a sense of pleasure!
The photoshopping was flawless; even a pro would struggle to find any traces.
Where on earth had Shen Yan found such a master of photoshop?
In the end, Qi Si started to doubt whether this was really Shen Yan’s doing.
Wasn’t Shen Yan madly chasing after that man?
Even Qi Si couldn’t help but feel a bit confused now.
He was curious to see what the next act would bring.

The public relations department reacted quickly but still couldn’t stop Mu Jincheng’s name from dominating the scandalous headlines.
The other party’s photoshop skills were indeed explosive, but they had overlooked one detail.
That was the recent places Mu Jincheng had visited; these photos all came with a background and timestamp, so the PR team brought in experts to point out traces of photoshopping and compared them to Mu Jincheng’s meticulous itinerary over the past few months.
This wave of explanation hit like an epiphany!
True fans cried out for Mu Jincheng’s innocence and urged him to take up legal weapons to protect his interests.
With the revelation of Mu Jincheng’s public itinerary, the heat of the scandal noticeably cooled off.
During the noon break.
Shen Yan saw the perceivable drop in the intensity of the trending search and even spotted many fans speaking up for Mu Jincheng, cursing those behind the smear campaign.
Mu Jincheng also officially filed a lawsuit and stuffed it full of legal jargon.
In short, the people behind it were going to pay a hefty price!
Shen Yan was somewhat disappointed.
Her first attempt at this game and she was clearly not yet skilled.
He really lived up to being the male protagonist of a book, his aura was quite powerful.
Even this couldn’t take him down.
However,
even though it gradually whitewashed, the incident still caused considerable damage to Mu Jincheng’s career.
With the situation now stabilized, Mu Jincheng let out a heavy sigh of relief.
On the other hand, Chu Jinghe felt secretly fortunate that she hadn’t rushed to sever ties with Mu Jincheng.

Xie Xuan watched the ups and downs on the internet and was a bit dazed.
The events that unfolded were excessively dramatic.
Wen Yan was also on the frontlines of eating melon, putting down his cell phone, he glanced at Xie Xuan, “Senior, what did you say to Shen Yan before? That trending topic about us was pulled down overnight, and they even did a thorough analysis to clarify it.”
This wasn’t something an average management company could achieve.
Xie Xuan looked complicatedly towards where Shen Yan was and said, “That’s something you’ll have to ask Shen Yan.”
He guessed that Shen Yan had a very powerful person backing her!
Based on his intuition, Shen Yan wasn’t the kind of person who needed to stick to a sugar daddy; it was more likely that someone close to her was backing her up!
“So our baffling rumor just passed like that?” Quite magical.
He had been worried about it escalating further.
Xie Xuan glanced at him, “What, you still want to climb the charts? And then we keep busy clarifying everything?”
Wen Yan shook his head like a rattle, “No thanks, not at all. I remember Senior had a girlfriend in college, don’t you want to find another one?”
Xie Xuan stared at him.
Wen Yan trembled, dodging Xie Xuan’s gaze.
“Don’t you know what the deal with that ‘girlfriend’ from college was?” Xie Xuan was also very frustrated as he brought it up.
Because that girl had a delusions of grandeur, spreading rumors about their relationship all over the campus, and then he was forced to have a “girlfriend.”
Wen Yan coughed softly, “Senior, haven’t you thought about settling down and starting a family?”
You’re not getting any younger.
“My career is going well right now,” a girlfriend, a wife, he had no interest in that.
Wen Yan sneaked a couple of glances at Xie Xuan, “Senior not finding a girlfriend is such a waste of good looks.”
Xie Xuan frowned, “Don’t be like my mom.”
Wen Yan: “…”
Standing not far away, Shen Yan turned her head and saw Xie Xuan and Wen Yan huddled together murmuring in an indistinct conversation.
She walked over, her gaze sweeping over the two of them.
“Shen Yan, don’t look at us with those eyes. I, I can’t handle it…” Wen Yan shrunk his neck.
“Are you two really not a couple?” Shen Yan asked directly.
Xie Xuan’s forehead throbbed with a vein.
Wen Yan: “…”
“Is your situation settled?” Xie Xuan asked.
Shen Yan: “Didn’t you see for yourself?”
“Aren’t you happy?” Xie Xuan squinted at her.
Not really, just a bit regretful, she definitely had to consider the background and timing the next time she Photoshopped.
Her first attempt was too flawed.
Miscalculation.
Right when Shen Yan was regretting not taking down Mu Jincheng in one go, Qi Si was currently caught in a deadlock.
To be precise, everyone but him felt pretty awkward.
Gu Ting came to Shen City without knowing that he would run into Song Jinwei and Qi Heng.
Qi Heng was the opposite of Qi Si in temperament, much milder and more talkative!
Importantly, he was a favorite of elders from a young age!
He had a sunny disposition in his youth, and now that he was in society, he was stable and friendly.
With a height of 1.88 meters and a rather handsome face, he was the kind of young man that aunts liked!
Before that, Song Jinwei had hinted to Gu Ting, hoping to switch the arranged marriage partner to Qi Heng.
Only Qi Heng and Song Jinwei were alright; now they were sitting opposite the cold Qi Si, making the atmosphere awkwardly stiff.
Actually, Gu Ting had some reservations about Song Jinwei.
She was too dominant. Qi Si was less favored in the Qi Family, and Song Jinwei’s partiality was crystal clear to Gu Ting. Shen Yan marrying into that family would definitely face a strong-willed and hard-to-get-along-with mother-in-law like Song Jinwei.
Shen Yan was no match for Song Jinwei, not to mention her temperament would put her at a further disadvantage.
The more Gu Ting thought about it, the more worried he became.
