Chapter 552: She Won’t Come Back
Lin Jing: “?”
Beep, beep, beep.
She hung up.
Other than a few other companies and people, who else could fork out 200 billion? At least, Lin Jing, who relied on herself to earn money and never accepted black-hearted money, could not!
…
Huaxia University.
On the 19th floor of the activity building.
As they looked at other people’s tips that were worth tens or even hundreds of millions, everyone’s faces turned even darker.
Water could not help but say, “It turns out that Sister Xi has so many rich friends. Any one of them could give away more than our hard-earned savings. No wonder she said that she didn’t need our money.”
Bang!
Just as he said this, Yu Da slammed the computer shut, causing the table in the room to tremble.
Everyone turned to look at him.
Yu Da sneered. “She has money, so how can she take a fancy to a club like ours? Moreover, she is the embodiment of justice. She doesn’t understand how we could disregard human lives.”
After saying that, he looked at Fang Fang and said slowly, “She won’t be coming back.”
The atmosphere in the room instantly became solemn.
Fang Fang had been staring fixedly at Wu Tu since just now. Now that Yu Da had answered this question for Wu Tu, Fang Fang was instantly extremely disappointed. She slowly lowered her head and hid in the corner again.
The room fell silent.
After a while, Yu Da’s phone rang. He answered the call. “The teacher is looking for me? Oh, alright. I’ll be there.”
After saying that, he left the room.
After he left, Bottle’s, Water’s, and Flight’s phones rang. The three of them picked up the call and left one after another.
After they left, Wu Tu looked at Fang Fang and said, “The police officer saw you last time and knows your ident.i.ty. From now on, stay here and don’t go back to the dormitory or the department.”
Fang Fang nodded.
…
In the production team.
Qin Shuang’s live-stream reached more than 200 million viewers and caused a huge commotion.
No one could suppress the topic of #Tyc.o.o.n tip#.
At 7 PM, the time limit set by the production team arrived. The rest of the people returned to the lounge one after another. When Xu Xinyao saw Qin Shuang and Xue Xi, she was already dejected and had lost her fighting spirit.
She had just used the excuse of going to the toilet to call her agency.
She did not expect the management company to tell her to stop provoking Qin Shuang. Qin Shuang and Xue Xi seemed to have a high status.
Xu Xinyao was stunned when she saw the 200 million yuan reward in the live-stream.
In the end, she could only hang up hatefully.
Among the 36 teams, Xue Xi and Qin Shuang had undoubtedly obtained first place. They had obtained full marks! As for Zhan Busi, he had been unable to get first place for a long time and had fallen to second place.
The rest were even worse.
Qin Shuang’s ranking and popularity were both much higher. Without a doubt, she had become the champion of this episode. She had increased her score by 20,000 yuan and jumped to first place in the overall ranking!
Moreover, because of the benefits of today’s live-stream, Qin Shuang’s popularity was still increasing. The results that such an independent trainee could obtain could be said to be unexpected!
…
After the recording, the group returned backstage to remove their makeup.
The production team was also being so kind as to give them their phones.
It had been a long time since she got her phone. Qin Shuang was very happy!
She and Xue Xi removed their makeup very quickly. After they were done, they prepared to wait for Ye Li, Little Mute, and Xiao Fei to have dinner together.
While she was waiting, Xue Xi continued reading the financial book while Qin Shuang scrolled through Weibo on her phone.
Her Weibo followers had already skyrocketed. In just one day, she had gained two million fans, and they were still increasing.
Just as Qin Shuang was happily staring at the data, her phone suddenly rang!
She paused when she saw the caller ID. She stared at the familiar yet foreign number for a long time before smiling bitterly. She walked to the side and picked up the call.
She did not see that Xue Xi, who was reading, suddenly looked up at her. Seeing that her expression did not seem right, she hesitated for a moment before standing up and walking toward her.
At this moment, Mrs. Qin’s voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Xiao Shuang, it’s Mom. How have you been lately?”
Thinking of the five million yuan just now, Qin Shuang felt her heart soften. She asked, “Did you guys give me a reward?”
Mrs. Qin: “Yes. Xiao Shuang, I think you’ve lost weight. I’ll give you some money to buy more delicious food.”
Qin Shuang: “…Mhm.”
She really did not know what to say and what to do.
At this moment, Mrs. Qin changed the topic. “Xiao Shuang, Mom went to visit your sister a few days ago.”
Qin Shuang paused and frowned. “I don’t want to talk about this.”
However, Mrs. Qin said, “Xiao Shuang, your sister has lost a lot of weight and is in a daze. She’s suffered a lot inside and is very haggard. She looks like a flower that has lost its bloom. It really hurts my heart to see her.”
She was in a daze and had suffered a lot. She looked very haggard.
Qin Shuang suddenly recalled that when she was sent to that school by her mother, she was also like this. But how did Mrs. Qin feel then? She’d only felt that Qin Shuang had become obedient and did not feel any heartache for her.
Qin Shuang’s face darkened. “This has nothing to do with me. I’m hanging up.”
Mrs. Qin was afraid that she would really hang up the call, so she shouted, “Xiao Shuang, I’m begging you. We contacted our lawyer, and he said that as long as the person your sister hurt signs a letter of pardon, she can be released. Can you forgive your twin sister?”
Can I forgive her?
Qin Shuang almost laughed. She slowly said, “No.”
Mrs. Qin: “She’s your biological sister. Xiao Shuang, consider this as Daddy and Mommy begging you!”
Qin Shuang lowered her eyes. “Not only did she hurt me, but she also hurt Mr. Liu.”
Back then, Qin Lu had pretended to have been a.s.saulted by Old Liu and almost harmed Old Liu’s family. How could she let her off so easily?
Mrs. Qin said, “We will beg Mr. Liu. As a teacher, Mr. Liu will definitely not be so heartless.”
The meaning behind her words was obvious. They would blackmail Old Liu morally.
Qin Shuang became even angrier. “I don’t agree!”
Mrs. Qin: “Xiao Shuang, you… don’t force your father and me. Since you don’t want to acknowledge us anymore, let your sister out to accompany us! She is also our daughter. Xiao Shuang, consider it as us begging you. If you don’t agree, don’t blame your father and me for being rude!”
Qin Shuang was stunned. “In what way would you guys be rude?”
Mrs. Qin’s voice turned cold. “You’re a well-known person now. If we announce that you’ve been at odds with your sister since you were young and that there’s someone in this world who looks exactly like you, what do you think will happen to your future as a star?”
Qin Shuang was stunned and widened her eyes in disbelief.
She did not expect this to come from Mr. and Mrs. Qin.
Seeing that she did not speak, Mrs. Qin continued, “Xiao Shuang, you know the matters on the Internet better than us. The public will not care about the truth and will only vent their anger and curse. You will also be put in cold storage.
“I know that you hate us to the core. Mom and Dad won’t care about you anymore. Your dad and I don’t want you to really end up like this, so just admit defeat.”
Qin Shuang’s eyes turned red and her fingers trembled. She did not expect her parents to be so shameless!
For Qin Lu, they were actually threatening her?
Even if Qin Shuang were to give up on her future path to stardom and risk being bashed by the entire internet, she would not relent. This was because if she did, her parents would deal with Mr. Liu next!
When she was in high school, Old Liu was so good to her…
She took a deep breath. Just as she was about to say something, a cold and slender hand suddenly s.n.a.t.c.hed her phone away…
Qin Shuang turned around and saw a red-haired girl standing quietly beside her.
The girl’s eyes were very beautiful. Usually, her eyes were big and listless, and she would even be a little dazed. However, at this moment, her eyes were filled with coldness.
She first patted Qin Shuang’s shoulder comfortingly.
This made Qin Shuang’s heart settle down.
Immediately, Xue Xi said to the phone coldly, “h.e.l.lo. I’m Xue Xi.”
“…”
