Maybach, handsome guy, being kept...

With this year’s airing of "Idol 6688," the show’s reputation has been on the rise, making it a continuously popular variety show.

Just when the show managed to return to its original intentions, without any tricks, and the contestants focused all their energy on the competition, unexpectedly, a scandal erupted midway.

What does "the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment" mean?

The wounds that the show managed to heal for the netizens are now reopened, igniting their anger instantly—

[666, the trainee dare ride on the sponsor’s car right in front of the training camp, really openly being kept.]

[Must be a middle schooler, haven’t even entered the entertainment industry yet, already playing these tricks so smoothly~]

[@Idol 6688, please pay attention when selecting contestants, don’t pick anyone, regardless of whether they’re good or bad.]

[The show is all young people, talent and character both matter, otherwise it’s easy to lead the kids astray.]

[No wonder they can appear on ’Life of a Salted Fish’ before debuting, turns out there’s a background～]

[Lying down and getting tons of resources, isn’t that way better than training for over ten hours every day, not knowing if you’ll make it?!]

[With looks like this, why choose the wrong path?! Must be crazy for fame!]

[...]

Cathy is an experienced employee at Starlight, with a high level of education, high IQ, high looks, top-notch business skills, and started with a million annual salary.

A couple of years ago, she bought a house during the real estate downturn in a good location and community, now she’s a single aristocrat with a house and a car.

Logically, with such great conditions, Cathy must have a rich love life.

However, despite her superior circumstances, even at the ripe age of twenty-eight, she has no intention of dating.

Moreover, she’s been single for many years.

She’s in no rush, and no one around is considering pushing her.

After all, her regular mantra is—"Wise ones don’t fall in love, regretful ones repeat mistakes, lone queens achieve higher education, we eventually become rich women."

Rich woman Cathy wears branded clothes daily, enters and exits top-end office buildings in the capital, loaded and promising, apart from not dating, life is quite pleasant.

Of course, the glamor of an investment witch is real, but so is the immense pressure.

In this turbulent era, everyone who lives comfortably has their own way to relieve stress.

Cathy’s way of relieving work stress is to snuggle alone on the couch after work, drink red wine, and watch online variety shows.

Talent shows are her main focus too; who doesn’t like to watch young and handsome guys acting cute and singing love songs?

"Idol 6688" is the talent show Cathy is focused on this year, and she was the first to discover that the big shot’s extraordinarily cute brother-in-law who had visited the company before was also participating in the competition on this show, immediately spreading the news among colleagues she thought would be interested.

Very soon, a new group named "Yiyi Fan Club Starlight Branch" was formed, members were those who were mesmerized by the brother-in-law’s good looks when he visited the company.

During lunch, Cathy’s takeaway today was incredibly bad, so bad she only took two bites then stopped, angering her enough to resort to online variety shows.

Little did she know, as soon as she opened her phone, she found the group she recently joined, "Xie Yizun National Fan Support Group," had exploded!

New messages 999+

Surprised, she clicked in to look for a while, only then did she realize that the handsome brother had been exposed for being given unspoken rules!

"???" With a puzzled face, she quickly sent a few messages in the group—

[I can confidently say our Yiyi definitely hasn’t been given unspoken rules!]

[Everyone, don’t panic, someone must be sabotaging our Yiyi.]

[Yiyi’s background is strong, he doesn’t need unspoken rules to rise!]

As soon as she sent these messages, fans who were disappointed by believing the exposé, questioning themselves whether they supported the wrong person, immediately @-tempted her, [How do you know?]

[Without a background, how could Xie Yizun appear on ’Life of a Salted Fish’ before debuting]

Cathy glanced at the message, completely uninterested in replying.

She hadn’t even seen any evidence of the brother being tarnished, so she quickly scrolled through the internet, scrolling and scrolling, until she found a video—

She quickly clicked to watch, and in less than a minute—

"This is ridiculing his mother opening the door to ridicule, utterly ridiculous! Holy crap!"

Starlight Investment Fund has a large tea room, where employees often bring their own packed lunches or takeaways to eat.

It was lunchtime when Cathy was watching online variety shows, sitting right in that elegantly furnished Starlight tea room.

As soon as she spoke out her extreme frustration, the previously noisy Starlight tea room suddenly fell silent.

Around her, a bunch of elite employees originally talking and eating were shocked and turned their attention to her.

But Cathy, burning with anger, had no interest in engaging with colleagues around her.

Because she was fuming with the comments below the video, and after eating a few bites of extremely bad takeaway, now she was furious, her anger just conveniently taken out against those idiotic anti fans online, battling them for three hundred rounds, yelling back!

"Cathy, what’s up?" Andy next to her asked.

Cathy was snapped back to reality by Andy’s concern.

"There’s an idiot online saying our boss is keeping his brother-in-law!" Cathy explained through gritted teeth.

"???" This time, it was the people next to her looking confused.

"Our boss is keeping his brother-in-law?! Xie Yizun?"

"Yiyi and our boss?"

"What’s all this?"

"Kept, how is it kept?!"

After the initial shock, everyone face blankly began asking.

Seeing her coworkers’ dumbfounded faces, Cathy smacked her forehead, "Our fan support group, I’ll post the video and thread for everyone to see once you’re finished."

The bunch of Starlight elites sitting in the tea room eating immediately put down their chopsticks, picked up their phones, and started browsing collectively.

Minutes later, the Starlight Investment Fund tea room was having its liveliest moment ever—

"This is stupid!"

"Holy crap! This car really is our boss’s car!"

"This exposé guy speaks so annoyingly, passive-aggressively!"

"Our boss and his brother-in-law unspoken rules, what the heck is wrong with these people?! If you don’t understand, don’t make things up, okay?"

"If you lack intelligence, fine, but if you don’t need your eyes, consider donating them to someone who does, okay?!"

"What kind of brainless people are these?! And ’witnesses’ — witness my ass, making things up! I’m watching you make things up!"

"These people must be toxic, even if a tycoon wants to keep a star, it couldn’t happen at the training camp entrance!"

"Saying our boss’s brother-in-law is being kept by the boss, if our boss can stand it, we can’t!"

A group of Starlight elites tossed their meals aside, rolled up their sleeves, and kicked off an online battle with those brainless ones! 1314
