Chapter 210: Chapter 178: On the Rise: 14 Host acts surprised: "Just because of such a trivial matter?" Zhou Yun smiles and says, "Yes, just because of such a trivial matter. I didn’t even take it to heart. Who would have known that the next morning my Weibo comments section was filled with messages calling me a homewrecker. Then another incident happened, and I was really surprised, baffled, and at a loss. Of course, I was also very angry, any girl would be angered by such slander. I remember my limbs even went numb from the fury." At this point, it actually should have stopped. The necessary response had already been given. The host was ready to shift the topic, but suddenly, Xu Siyao interjects, saying, "But Sister Xiao Yun and Brother Chi really do have a good relationship, it’s inevitable it could lead to misunderstandings." The host was taken aback. The expressions on the faces of several speakers in the chat windows were quite peculiar. Zhou Yun’s expression momentarily stiffens as well. It seemed like Xu Siyao only then realized her misstep, her expression cautiously exhibiting remorse as she asks, "Did I say something wrong?" Zhou Yun bursts into laughter, politely yet with a coldness in her eyes, she says, "Yes, my relationship with Song Chi is indeed good. And it’s not just with Song Chi; I have few friends in the entertainment world, but I am close with all of them. Unfortunately, the most famous among them are Song Chi, Xiao Gu, Xiao Yin, and Yuk Chu who is not here today. Come on guys, make some noise, rise in popularity, so they won’t just focus on spreading rumors about me and Song Chi. I’d love to have rumors with you guys too!" She improvised on the spot, and awkwardly smoothed over the tense moment. Gu Huaichun bursts out laughing, saying, "Just wait, when your Brother Chun becomes famous, I’ll soar with you." Gu Huaichun’s remark was specifically to help Zhou Yun out of a tight spot. In fact, observant viewers would have noticed that just now Zhou Yun specifically mentioned Yuk Chu who wasn’t present at the live stream, but somehow casually ignored Xu Siyao who was there. The live streaming event is over. Zhou Yun takes off her headphones and logs out of the live streaming app. Next to her, Zhou Lan and Zheng Xiaojue are both present. They both give Zhou Yun a thumbs-up. Zheng Xiaojue was also stunned by Xu Siyao’s sudden jab earlier, worried for Zhou Yun, but Zhou Yun responded so quickly that she effortlessly defused the awkward situation. Zhou Lan scoffs coldly, typing a few words on her phone, though it’s unclear to whom she is messaging. Seeing Zhou Lan’s somewhat sinister smile, Zhou Yun asks, "Sister Lan, who are you messaging? Why such a cold smile?" Zhou Lan replies, "Xu Siyao, that bitch, was deliberately trying to embarrass you. I’ll give her a taste of her own medicine." An hour later, Zhou Yun sees a post from a blogger who is close friends with Zhou Lan titled "Watching a green tea bitch’s failed performance." The blogger clips a video from just now from the "Eighth Heartbeat" live stream. The blogger cuts out the brief moment from earlier, highlighting Xu Siyao’s conduct. The video begins with the narrator summarizing Zhou Yun’s recent response to the rumor-spreading incident, emphasizing that it was caused by the drunken rant of a Song Chi fan who decided that Zhou Yun was a homewrecker, "Basically, the matter had been clarified when the host was about to change the topic." Subtitle: Suddenly! "At this moment, a woman from nowhere spoke up." The video clip shows Xu Siyao saying, "But Sister Xiao Yun and Brother Chi truly have a great relationship; it’s inevitably misleading." The narration continues: "When I heard this sentence, I was astonished too. ’Inevitably misleading’? Young lady, do you understand what you’re saying? What are you doing?" This scene ends. The screen switches to the host, his face confused, crowned by three huge question marks. The screen switches to Gu Huaichun, who widens his eyes and the text says: What is this woman doing? The screen switches to Yin Zhou, who slightly frowns, with the text: What’s going on? A black screen, and the blogger narrates: "No one knows what she was thinking at that moment? I didn’t either, and Zhou Yun was obviously taken aback too." The screen then cuts back to Zhou Yun, subtitle: Clearly startled. "But!" The blogger suddenly exclaims excitedly, "Please pay attention, the epic performance alert is coming up, appreciate the next act." The screen switches to Xu Siyao, gently biting her lip, timidly asking, "Did I say something wrong?" A black man with a question mark face suddenly appears. The blogger’s voiceover comes on: "I have never seen such poor acting skills before, a revival of the white lotus mode from ten years ago! If I encountered such a woman, I’d really flip the table and leave! How can this be tolerated?" The style suddenly changes, "Sister Zhou can! Not only can Sister Zhou endure, but she can also strike back invisibly!" The screen sharply switches. Zhou Yun slightly curves her lips, exuding a chill, the blogger even draws a red circle around Zhou Yun’s lips, alerting the viewers to pay attention here. Suddenly, a battle drum sounds with a war march playing in the background, grandly. Within this soundtrack, Zhou Yun speaks with a touch of effortlessness: "Yes, my relationship with Song Chi is indeed good." "Of course, it’s not just Song Chi. I don’t have many friends in the entertainment industry, but I am close with each one of them, only that the most famous ones are Song Chi." "Xiao Gu, Xiao Yin, and Yuk Chu who is not present today, strive for it, quickly rise up so they won’t just focus on spreading rumors about me and Song Chi. I would like to have rumors with you guys too!" The video abruptly pauses here as if it got stuck. The blogger voicemail comes in: "Did you catch the important part? If you didn’t, no worries, let us review it one more time." One, two, three. Suddenly rewinds. "Xiao Gu, Xiao Yin, and Yuk Chu who is not present today, strive for it." The screen switches to Xu Siyao’s innocent, cautious expression. The blogger’s voicemail: "Did you see how Sister Zhou countered? She mentioned the two male actors participating in the same live broadcast, and the female actress who didn’t participate in this live broadcast, but didn’t mention this innocent young lady." The video repeats: "I don’t have many friends in the entertainment industry, but I’m close with each one of them." The blogger adds: "You all should understand Sister Zhou’s implied message by now. Someone who can’t even be considered a friend of Sister Zhou’s insinuates that Sister Zhou’s private relationship with the big boss Song Chi is more than just friends. From my perspective, someone is desperately craving attention, indiscriminately and recklessly! An artist’s desire for fame is understandable, but resorting to such tactics is despicable. Nevertheless, regarding Sister Zhou’s performance tonight, I can only say one word, respect! Admiration!"
