Chapter 1416: Becoming an Anti-fan
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
And during that night, after Lu Man and Han Zhuoli just reached home, her phone kept ringing with WeChat’s notifications.
A never-ending tinkling sound.
Lu Man found it weird, for her WeChat had never rung with such urgency before.
She opened it, only to see Zheng Yuan, Han Leilei, and Pan Xue taking turns bombarding her with messages.
Because she didn’t want her phone to keep ringing when chatting in the group, Lu Man usually switched off the group chat notification.
Right then, all she saw were questions from Zheng Yuan and the other two.
“Lu Man, are you there?”
“Come, quickly, reply if you’re there!”
“A netizen said that you not going to the exchange in New York yet occupying the spot was because of the school giving you special treatment due to Young Master Han’s influence. They say it’s unfair to the other students.”
“Lu Man, when you see this, please go and reply on the Net! The discussions now are extremely unfavorable to you.”
“Lu Man, are you there?!”
“When are you gonna come online?!”
“Come quickly!”
“There are people on the Net saying that you’re feeling guilty now. The later you reply, the worse it’s gonna get!”
Lu Man quickly entered the chat. “I just reached home and saw your messages.”
Pan Xue immediately replied: “You finally appeared.”
Zheng Yuan: “Go and make a statement. There’s someone leading those malicious comments for sure.”
Han Leilei said: “We reckon it’s either Yu Jingxian or Lu Qi. Only the two of them have the biggest reactions to this issue. But this is only our guesses, we’re not sure either. It’ll be better if you deal with the issue first, then seek out the mastermind when you’re done.”
“I understand, I’ll settle it. Don’t worry,” Lu Man replied.
Lu Man did not immediately make a statement; instead, she went to gauge the netizens’ reactions first.
“Lu Man’s not going to New York but still holding on to the slot? That’s too much!”
“How can Lu Man’s fans still speak up for her? Isn’t Lu Man insisting on doing things her way now that Han Zhuoli’s her husband?”
“Suddenly thought of a meme, ‘Does being rich mean you can be wilful?”Sorry, but being rich, I can afford to be wilful.’ What more Lu Man, who has Han Zhuoli—the big boss of the entertainment industry—backing her up?”
“But this doesn’t stop us from saying that she’s too much for bullying others like this, to be a dog in the manger just because of Han Zhuoli. What right does she have to occupy the spot when she’s not going?”
“This matter’s too gross. Sorry, but I’m becoming an anti-fan.”
“The National Film Academy is really interesting. Sacrificing other students’ interests just for Lu Man, all to curry favor with Han Zhuoli. Lu Man’s not going, so how good will it be if they gave this chance to someone else who wants to go?”
“As a bystander, it’s not an issue with me no matter who this slot is given to, but even I can’t stand for Lu Man’s actions. ”
“This time, Lu Man’s really in the wrong. How can people still speak up for her?”
Lu Man went to search for the origin of this issue and found an account used for gossip.
She contacted Da Xiong and sent a screenshot of the account details.
“Brother Xiong, did you receive any news about this? Who sent details about this to this account anonymously?” Lu Man asked.
“Heh, what a coincidence. I just received news about this. I was just about to call you.” Da Xiong said nothing else and just sent a few screenshots. “Though the person is anonymous, I find the account name familiar, so I asked someone to sift through some old records.”
