Chapter 211 – Is it too late to apologize now? (3)
Amidst all of these, Gong Yilin was the one what was most shocked. He had spent his savings on hiring the for-profit accounts and water army take the lead and was so excited when he watched the two tramps being slammed by all. He even registered for a secondary account, liked all the meanest and nastiest of all comments, as well as bashing Li XinYun himself. That was oh so satisfying indeed.
Even so, that wasn’t enough for him to stop there. He bribed a senior in his department to post pictures onto their school forum, promising him that he would be hired on by his family’s company after graduation and guaranteed base salary of 10,000 yuan.
He thought Li XinYun’s reputation would be completely trashed when, abruptly, the table had been turned.
Fang JunRong had straight up announced that Li XinYun was her real daughter?
Besides, his secondary account was included in the list who would be receiving letters from Fang JunRong’s lawyers. He was frantic and very worried that he would be in trouble. After all, he didn’t cover his tracks very well and it would not be difficult to trace it back to him.
The idea of being made infamous over this sent chills down his spines and his hand that was holding onto the mouse trembled.
This was all Li XinYun’s fault!
Why was she so low key all the time if she was from such a wealthy family? She even lived in the dormitory just like everyone else! He had no idea!
His cellphone was ringing nonstop.
He looked down and it was a call from Li Jinrong.
He accepted the call and immediately heard Li Jinrong’s frantic voice.
“Gong YiLin, you have ruined me! Li XinYun straight up said in the school forum that she will hold me accountable for defamation and will be taking me to court.
“Had I known she is from such a wealthy family, I would never had badmouthed her. You better figure something out. If I get a criminal record, this is not over between us! You are ruining my life here!
“Let me tell you. If you don’t figure something out, I am bringing you down with me. You are the one who dragged me into this in the first place!”
On his computer, the for-profit sites that he had paid for were also demanding an answer from him.
Would he be frantic over here if he had any idea what to do now?
Gong YiLin tossed away his cellphone and, staring at the blinking penguin in front of him, had never felt so at loss his entire life. Was it too late to apologize now?

The Crayon Who Didn’t Know How to Lie was a for-profit account that had over one million fans. The account holder’s real name was Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen became famous from leeching off popularity of real incidents at the beginning and had lent himself the reputation of someone who would only tell the truth. When he gradually became more popular, he started accepted payments to post. He had always been lucky and careful and had never ran into any incidents. Occasionally, when he made a mistake, he still had fans who would stand up for him. After a few times, his popularity began to grow as he took the leads on many incidents. That had given him a big head and started to think that he really was something.
When Gong YiLin had reached out to him, he didn’t think much of it. After all, female college students have an “employer” had always ben a hot topic on the internet. In addition, the two girls in the photo were very pretty. One of them, especially, was as pretty as a fairy and made one’s heart itch. That reminded him of the school flower that he had chased back in his college days. She, too, was a beauty with stunning features. She had, nevertheless, turned him down in the end and opted for a Tall, Rich, and Handsome. All pretty women were gold diggers. They only cared whether a man was rich and never beyond that. They’d rather cry in the backseat of a BMW than laugh in the back of a bicycle.
With his new and old hatred mixed together along with the sizeable offer, Zhu Wen accepted the task without any hesitation. He didn’t even look into how much truth there was in the incident before he wrote a few eye-catching articles. That, along with the tugging and pulling of the water army and released the girls’ name bit by bit, had expectedly, made him famous. He was up on the most trending list and his name could be seen everywhere. He was only more than happy to like a few of the comments that bashed the two girls and all the praises about him being the only one who had gotten straight to the point had made him a very happy man.
