Chapter 137: Chapter 136: League 22, Explosive Star Network

After hanging up the phone, Gong Lingyu flopped back onto the bed, bouncing up and then settling down with a satisfied smile on her face.

Sitting on the bed working, Si Chen saw that Gong Lingyu finally relaxed and his mood lightened as well.

Rolling over and propping her head on her hand, Gong Lingyu boasted to Si Chen, "My taste, as always, is impeccable."

Si Chen’s forehead creased with the familiar sense of indulgence mixed with helplessness as he repeated the line he had said many times before, "Ling’er, remember your status."

"Oh, please, when have I ever slipped up in public? Just the two of us here, who are we keeping up appearances for?" Gong Lingyu said with disdain.

Getting up to grab Si Chen’s smart brain interface, she asserted firmly, "I’m in a good mood today, so I’m giving you the day off. It’s not like it’s anything important. Deal with it tomorrow."

The vacation-granted Si Chen: "..."

The Empress eagerly discussed with Si Chen, "Qu Tong got first place this time, what do you think I should reward her with?"

"Didn’t the little girl fall out with the Qu Family? The Qu Family recently paid a fine and now they’re short on liquid funds. They want to restart their farm and have put Yingyue Bay up for auction on the star network. Why not buy it and gift it to her?"

Si Chen had just noticed this piece of news yesterday and mentioned it offhand.

"Qu Tong is already living comfortably in Yuelan Bay, and Yuting is just as immovable as you. If Qu Tong moves out, how will the two of them ever develop their relationship?" The Empress gave Si Chen a pointed look.

Si Chen always got called out on this, but he couldn’t argue, so he simply stayed silent.

"But we still need to buy the Qu Family’s ancestral home. You arrange for someone to purchase it, and we’ll gift it to Qu Tong once their relationship is more stable."

"Alright," Si Chen had no objections.

"I’ll prepare another gift for Qu Tong separately. I’ll give it to her when she and Yuting come to the palace for Niannian’s birthday," the Empress planned everything out, and Si Chen just needed to nod and cooperate.

Speaking of Niannian, the Empress thought of Si Yuting’s fertility rate and said regrettably, "If only Yuting had fertility values. With his high physical grade, the daughter he’d have with Qu Tong would certainly not have a low level either."

Physical grade often impacts offspring, especially those naturally conceived, allowing them to inherit more of their parent’s qualities.

Data shows that naturally conceived children can potentially surpass the physical grades of their parents. Si Yuting and Niannian are prime examples.

Gong Lingyu had an S-grade physique, Si Chen an SS+; in earlier times when an heir was urgently needed, the artificially cultivated Crown Prince only had an A+ grade. In contrast, Si Yuting, conceived naturally later on, had an SSS grade.

Surprisingly, the Crown Princess Consort, who had no spiritual power and was an ordinary person, still gave birth to Niannian, who had an SS+ body grade, probably due to some form of genetic skipping.

"If you could actually have a child, how do you know for sure it would be a daughter?" Si Chen’s efficient, work-focused mind couldn’t keep up with the Empress’s erratic thoughts.

"Because I like daughters. Xinxin and Qu Tong both like me, so they’ll give me a granddaughter." The Empress argued with a mix of logic and pique.

What else could Si Chen say?

Of course, of course, the wife is always right.

Si Chen hugged Gong Lingyu and tucked her into the covers.

Not feeling sleepy, Gong Lingyu simply powered up her light brain and, using an alternate account, liked all the comments blessing her son and daughter-in-law on a blogger’s thread; she also reported the unfriendly comments.

However, her alternate account didn’t have any special privileges, so only those netizens with particularly harsh words received warnings and bans.

Meanwhile

After returning to her dormitory, Qu Tong went straight to bed.

Thinking about how Fei Wenxing said her video had blown up the star network, she logged into her own star network account.

The live streaming account linked to her star network was already displaying 999+ messages.

Qu Tong clicked in to see a variety of expressions, some shocked and some skeptical.

Dani xiaojiji: "Admiring, admiring, Prince Consort Sister doesn’t only cook well, she’s also so agile."

Dibao and Lao Tou both lost: "Sister’s hands are not only beautiful, but holding a gun is so cool too!"

Gao Leng: "After watching the livestream, I suddenly realized I’ve been quite disrespectful in the past."

Mouth Almighty King: "The host doesn’t have spiritual power, yet she still exploited a loophole in the military competition rules."

Moon Won’t Sleep and Neither Will I: "War God Your Highness himself said no one broke the rules, are you selectively deaf?"

Forever Love Your Highness: "Exactly, it suits your username to lie through your teeth."

New cp fan: "My prince is always right, so the Princess Consort is also correct."

...

Qu Tong logged out of her livestream account and found that the military competition had made it to the top of the trending searches.

The second hottest search had a very prominent title: "Princess Consort unveils new tactics in the military competition."

With a casual scroll, every ten posts would contain one or two related to her own military competition livestream footage.

Qu Tong had truly not expected that her mere middle-term exam would cause such a big stir.

Of course, among these were those who belittled her, and upon clicking into it, most comments were from fans of the Alchemist Association and Lan Weiying.

Overall, the positive impact was greater than the negative.

Qu Tong intended to shut off her light brain and sleep, but accidentally hit refresh, only to see a hot post.

There were no photos, just a few sentences made into fancy script.

Something Qu Tong said during the competition was repeatedly brought up and mocked.

Beneath it were comments full of sarcasm and disapproval.

"Our prince is such a good person~ uiya uiya uiya"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I’d stake the prince’s reputation, can just anyone say this? No! Only the Princess Consort can."

"My prince is just loaded, so what? Seeing the smug look on the Princess Consort’s face, I just want to go up and pinch her cheeks."

"The Princess Consort said, ’Prince, catch me!’ That scene was really addictive, too bad there’s no sequel!!"

"The Princess Consort’s adoring look when she mentions the prince, she must be madly in love with our prince. Here’s to their everlasting happiness."

The last comment had the most likes, followed by countless comments of +1.

Qu Tong pursed her lips, and now the whole internet knew how deeply in love she was with Si Yuting.

Although she intended to show a harmonious married life to the public, it seemed she might have overdone it.

Some were even worried about her; Prince Yuting is constantly on the battlefield, how would she live without Prince Yuting?

Qu Tong thought internally: ...

It really wasn’t that serious...

It looked like she would have to tone it down in the future. The internet was too advanced, and the audience too eager to spread gossip, turning it into rumors.

She wondered if Si Yuting had seen the online comments and what he might think if he did.

Although Si Yuting was a household name, there were actually no pictures of him available online.

It seemed the communications department had intentionally blocked them, so why didn’t it block hers as well?

In fact, after the last cyberbullying incident, Si Yuting had the communications department block Qu Tong’s photos, and most of her old photos had also been mostly dealt with.

But this time, too many people watched Qu Tong’s livestream, and it wasn’t that the communications department didn’t want to block them, they simply couldn’t.

If every account were to remove Qu Tong’s photos and videos, it would cause public outrage, and the workload would be too immense even for the star network to handle.
