Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!

Chapter 98: 098 Yan Wang’s special story +1

"I think that anyone who can casually pull out ten billion yuan for their children’s investments wouldn’t say such harsh words to their own son. You all were so mean before that I didn’t even dare to interject."

"Even for the wealthiest person in the city, it’s not easy to liberate ten billion yuan in liquid funds! Yan Yueqing bringing her son to the show and playing up the mother-son affection is one thing, but why actually invest the money?"

"Do you remember when Yueqing claimed she was from the wealthy Yan Family of City C, and how the Yan Family’s official Weibo immediately denied it?! Now it seems that might have been true!"

"I’ve already imagined a dramatic scenario where a mother, in order to save her son, fled to the entertainment industry. When she inadvertently revealed her identity, she hurriedly contacted her family to deny it!"

"To speak or not to speak, Yueqing would usually never explain herself no matter what negative news she faced. But this time, she said a lot... Maybe only mothers understand that their children are their bottom line, absolutely off-limits to others."

In the room, everyone listened quietly to this history.

Yan Wang’s face had turned from white to red.

He seriously reached out and cradled his mother’s face, treating it with the gentleness reserved for a treasure: "I know these words weren’t said by Mom."

At least...

Not by the mother before him.

Yan Wang couldn’t remember since when he had realized that his mother was not his mother?

His feelings towards the woman who pretended to be his mother were complicated; he hoped to see his mother’s image through her, yet he resented that person for taking over his mother’s body.

Now that the mother he had longed for had finally returned, how could he let the opinions on the internet hurt her?

He spoke deliberately and with determination: "I know my mother’s voice, this person... is not my mother."

Yueqing pursed her lips, hugging her son even tighter with a heart full of sorrow.

Yan Wang’s little head nestled close against her chest.

Listening to his mother’s heartbeat, one beat after another, fiery and warm.

He wrapped his arms around Yueqing’s neck, shedding his usual aloof demeanor, resembling a helpless and pitiable little kitten.

Even Jun Yan felt a twinge of heartache watching this.

Hey!!!

That’s not right!

What was he feeling sorry for?

Jun Yan frowned, moving closer to Yueqing without a sound: "Sister Yueqing, I get it now, someone is trying to drive a wedge between you and your son!"

Yueqing said in a deep voice: "There has never been a break in the negative online opinions about me, and I’ve always been indifferent, but when they involve my precious child, I absolutely cannot tolerate it!"

Upon hearing this, the corners of Yan Wang’s mouth lifted unconsciously.

His black eyes shimmered with a bright luster.

Jun Yan said: "I’ll have someone look into it."

Yueqing shook her head: "No need, I’ll take care of this myself!"

As her voice fell, the system appeared: "Host is resolute in protecting her own flesh and blood, triggering Yan Wang’s special storyline mission."

A new interface popped up.

"Mission: Within three days, uncover the person framing the Host online, and have them publicly apologize.

Mission Reward: +20 enhancement points, one Lucky Draw.

Mission Failure Punishment: Favorability of all bound Cute Babies reset to zero."]

Yueqing was already fuming, and not just because of the special storyline: even without this mission, she would’ve dragged the culprit out regardless!

"System, put all my enhancement points into hacking skills."

"Okay, Host’s hacking skills +10, reaching Beginner Hacker (25%). Every ten points can raise 25% experience, and a total of 30 enhancement points are needed to reach the next level."

With the system’s voice falling, Yan Yueqing’s mind was suddenly filled with lots of knowledge points.

When she opened her eyes, her vision was clear and sharp, as if she knew exactly where to start!

Jun Yan wanted to say something else, but seeing Sister Yueqing’s determined eyes, he sighed, "Anyway... If you need help, I’m ready to step in anytime!"

Yueqing soothed him, "Don’t worry, once we catch this person, I’ll need Yan Bao to help me find a lawyer! I, Yan Yueqing, declare in front of the cameras—I will not let this go easily, and I will make the rumormonger pay!"

"Yay!" Tang Tang cheered and clapped her hands, "We need to show them who’s boss!"

Xiao Zhen posted the video and then comfortably went to sleep.

Upon waking up, she found, as expected, that the Weibo post had exploded!

Even the numbers were better than she had anticipated!

She gleefully clicked on the comments and didn’t see any disparaging words about Yan Yueqing. Instead, she read advice from netizens.

[The blogger is really brave, challenging President Yue head-on? Who do you think President Yue is? You think a so-called recording can destroy the relationship between a mother and child?]

[I advise the blogger to delete the post and apologize soon. Spreading unverified stuff, hurting a mother and child who have supported each other all this time, you really have a cruel heart!]

[President Yue has spoken, she won’t let the blogger off. It’s still not too late to beg for mercy!]

[The authenticity of the recording really needs to be considered. With AI technology so advanced nowadays, even scam calls can imitate your own voice, let alone such an out-of-context recording.]

[I’m just watching the drama, Qian Qian, waiting for the blogger to drop another bombshell, or... waiting to see the blogger bow their head, haha!]

Xiao Zhen was stunned. What’s going on?!

Why is everyone starting to side with Yan Yueqing?!

She clicked into the Weibo hot search, and the exposé she had released had fallen to fifth place. At the top, however—Yan Yueqing reveals the truth about entering the industry!

Xiao Zhen frowned and watched the whole video.

Actually, the public release of this recording, if it had been on any other artist, would have had an irreversible impact on them.

Frankly speaking, the public isn’t very objective in their evaluation of artists—they often follow the crowd. There are those who stand neutrally and just watch, but the interest in a topic doesn’t stay high for long, and nobody specially cares about the follow-up to the incident.

It’s nothing more than fans turning into passersby, and passersby turning into haters, just following comments and insults. Besides true fans, who cares about the truth of the matter?

Many netizens, not knowing the truth, even unleash their anger from real life online, hurling insults before even understanding the context. Even if they insult the wrong person, when the truth comes out later, they won’t recognize their own mistake and instead say, "If you had no issues, why wouldn’t people expose someone else? Why target you specifically?"]

Thus, artists fear scandals the most! First, because they’re troublesome to explain, and second, because they ruin the rapport with the general public.

Even if you haven’t done anything, when you’re tangled up in scandals, people will subconsciously think—flies don’t land on a flawless egg!

If you’re really innocent, why are you constantly on the blacklist of hot searches?!

It’s a frustrating social phenomenon, and many marketing accounts thrive on this to chase hot topics. How many perks and traffic has Xiao Zhen reaped from such tactics?!

But she’s more cautious than the average marketing account!

Getting this account to a million followers was not easy. If Xiao Zhen exposes gossip about major stars with high traffic, she generally doesn’t use this account, fearing the day it backfires and gets hammered by their true fans!

However... Yan Yueqing... a person plagued with scandals?

Actually saying she’s going to expose me?

Suddenly, she finds it a bit funny...
