After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 442 - 429: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
She had long collected a lot of evidence of Sister Li’s crimes, just waiting to put her in jail and completely solve this problem.
Yuanyuan nodded fiercely, "It’s all sorted out. Should we send it out now?"
Qin Yun shook her head, "Let’s wait a bit longer."
She always felt something was off about this incident. Considering Sister Li’s intellect, her plan was too intricate this time.
Whether it was catching Mystery Shadow or Qin Dawei’s precise timing to expose her, everything was timed perfectly; the previous scandal had fermented to its peak, and another explosive revelation immediately followed, making the gossip-hungry public delighted.
It seemed like someone was helping her from behind the scenes.
Qin Yun’s suspicion was quickly confirmed.
Qin Dawei and Sister Li announced on Weibo that they were going to hold a press conference to expose the disgraceful side of Qin Yun. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
When Qin Yun saw the news, she realized she had underestimated Sister Li.
She did have some smarts after all.
"Is she collaborating with Liao Yin?"
Yuanyuan slammed the table in anger, "Is she crazy?"
When she left, she should have slapped her hard, making her feel the pain.
"This was expected, but it’s also Sister Li’s own doing."
They thought their trump card, holding the press conference, would ruin her, forcing her to submit to their will.
But they underestimated her.
Qin Yun sneered, looking at the announcement. The time for the event was tomorrow, and it wasn’t just Sister Li; Qin Dawei and several minor celebrities who had worked with Qin Yun before were attending, totaling a dozen or so people.
That night, each person posted a lot of dirt about Qin Yun, along with various kinds of hard evidence.
The online condemnation of Qin Yun reached its peak.
Everyone was clamoring for Qin Yun to get out of the entertainment industry.
Only Qin Yun’s fans remained steadfast in their belief that Qin Yun couldn’t have done such things.
[How could Qin Yun be involved in something like this? If you want to sling mud, can’t you be a bit smarter and find a somewhat believable reason???]
[The idiot former agent not only failed to provide resources but also sabotaged our Yunyun in every variety show. Now she’s deliberately teaming up with her gambling-addict foster father to smear Yunyun—are they courting death?]
[Do they not know that cybercrime is a crime too? Do they really think they can say anything online without taking responsibility? Slandering Qin Yun—do they really think she has no backing? Let me tell you, I’ll support Qin Yun for life. You better not slander her again, or I won’t be polite!]
[These solo fans are still defending her. All the evidence is laid out, are you blind? Can’t see anything? With Qin Yun’s current level of fame, she refuses to support the father who raised her from childhood. What kind of person does that make?!!]
[One is Qin Yun’s foster father, the other is her former agent. Both were the closest to Qin Yun, and they’re all saying she’s not a good person, her conduct is unseemly, her thoughts malicious—isn’t it obvious?]
[All the stupid fans defending Qin Yun, wake up. All the evidence is solid!!]
Everyone was battling over Qin Yun’s issue, and even Yuanyuan couldn’t take it, directly opening a side account to fight back against the haters and trolls online, engaged in a fiery back-and-forth.
Instead, Qin Yun remained the calmest.
As the situation grew increasingly out of control, she smiled more gently.
"Sister Yun, aren’t you angry?" Yuanyuan’s face was flushed with anger.
"Angry? What’s there to be angry about?" Qin Yun opened her phone, ordered dinner, and then looked up calmly, "It’s not worth arguing with fools. If a dog bites me, I can’t just bite back, can I?"
Yuanyuan choked on her words but thought about it and felt Sister Yun made a lot of sense.
"Just wait until they hold the press conference tomorrow. I’ll be giving her a big gift."
The next day at 5:30 in the afternoon.
It was rush hour, and the streets were filled with cars and pedestrians. Yuanyuan drove Qin Yun to the venue of Sister Li’s press conference.
The place was crowded, and surprisingly, more than a dozen security guards were stationed at the entrance. Without an invitation, there was no getting in.
Yuanyuan panicked, "Sister Yun, we don’t have an invitation."
Now that they were here, what would they do if they couldn’t get inside?
Qin Yun smiled, "Who said I don’t have one?"
Qin Yun took out her phone and made a call. Soon, a man who looked like a hotel manager came over, respectfully greeting Qin Yun.
"Miss Qin, I’m Xiao Li, the manager of this hotel. If you need anything, feel free to instruct me, and I’ll do my best to assist you."
Qin Yun nodded, "Manager Li, please take me to the venue for today’s press conference."
Manager Li immediately nodded, "This way, please."
He led Qin Yun and Yuanyuan through the employees’ passageway, making a couple of turns, before entering the interior of the venue through the fire escape.
Yuanyuan was amazed, "Sister Yun, you’re incredible!"
Qin Yun smiled, "It’s all arranged by my brother."
This hotel belonged to the Tang Family, and it was a simple task for Tang Zi to instruct someone to help Qin Yun.
Qin Yun and Yuanyuan discreetly entered without anyone noticing.
Up on stage, Sister Li and Qin Dawei were present, along with the lesser-known artists who had posted criticisms about Qin Yun, all nodding as Sister Li spoke to them.
Qin Dawei’s grin was ear-to-ear, as if he could already see Qin Yun begging him for money, pleading with him not to expose her.
"Did you hear that? As long as we bring Qin Yun down today, she won’t dare defy your words in the future."
Sister Li cautioned again, and Qin Dawei nodded, "I know, I know."
Sister Li glanced sharply and headed towards the backstage.
Backstage, a man in a suit, watching the scene with satisfaction, began to smile.
"As expected of you, Sister Li, Qin Yun chose not to be a good celebrity but insisted on venturing into the short video platform. This pie was only so big, but she had to have a slice—she’s practically asking for death, isn’t she?"
Sister Li laughed and leaned closer, "President Yan, you must be joking. Qin Yun is nothing compared to you. I’m helping you eliminate her, so she’ll never be in your way again."
President Yan discreetly avoided Sister Li’s advance, sneering.
"If she really falls for the trap today, you’ll be the hero. I can give you some money to go abroad, so no one will ever know about your past."
Sister Li’s expression shifted as she nodded grimly, "Thank you, President Yan, I’ll make sure Qin Yun has no chance to turn things around!"
"Hmm, do well."
The time came, and the journalists outside were ready. Sister Li nodded and walked out from the backstage.
As soon as she came out, she saw a familiar figure flash by in the corner. That figure, unexpectedly, looked a bit like Qin Yun!
But when she looked closely again, the figure had already disappeared.
