The cursing on the Internet got worse and had even spread to the program's bullet screen, causing chaos at the scene.
The director gestured and the host immediately gave the closing speech. As soon as the last note fell, the screen immediately darkened. The staff were also preparing to clear the venue.
At such a chaotic moment, Shi Wenfei walked up to Shi Ran and raised her chin proudly. "Shi Ran, do you think you can turn the situation around with just a few words? Do you regret it now? Not only did you pay for your stupidity, but the cost of that sickly person's illness will also be on you now!"
Shi Ran leaned back on the sofa calmly and only gave her a glance.
That glance was nothing special, but it gave Shi Wenfei a bad feeling.
The staff member hurriedly ran over. "Director, the live-stream can't be turned off!"
The director's expression changed. "What's going on? Is there a problem with the backstage technology? Go get someone—"
Before he could finish, the big screen, which had been dark, suddenly lit up.
"Sister Qing, why did you lie to me that Yu Fan was at the bar? You even drugged me! Do you know that if I hadn't woken up halfway, I would have been raped by that man?! Why did you do that?" The woman's voice was sobbing and questioning. Although her pronunciation was soft, it sounded hoarse so one could tell that it was Shi Ran's voice.
The people at the scene looked at each other, completely unaware of what was happening.
Shi Wenfei's expression had changed. She turned to the director, wanting to question him and so she held back and forced a smile. "Director, what's going on?"
"I think our live broadcast room has been hacked. We're already looking for someone to fix it." The director didn't look happy either.
[No visuals but only sounds? What's going on?]
[This voice seems to be the voice of Shi Ran. Drugged?! Is it about the video just now?]
[Damn! What's going on?]
The voices continued.
"Shi Ran, I'm your manager so you better watch your attitude when you talk to me! Do you think you're still the eldest daughter of the Shi family?"
"Also, I'm just saying that Young Master Zhou might be at the bar. You were the one who insisted on going over. Besides, that man's family is considered rich. If you can marry him, you won't have to worry about the rest of your life. As for Young Master Zhou, is he someone you can fantasize about given your current status? I've already arranged an opportunity for you, but you were stupid enough to run away!"
"Sister Qing, what do you mean? Zhou Yu Fan is my fiancé!"
"Haha."
Cold laughter filled the studio and could be heard through the microphone.
"The biological daughter of the Shi family is Wenfei. She should be the one to marry Young Master Zhou. Let me tell you, I've already recorded the video of you dancing with a man last night. When it gets out, there's nothing you can do even if you don't want to end the engagement!"
Shi Wenfei panicked and turned to the director. "Since we can't solve the problem, let's just get someone to smash the sound equipment!"
The stereo was smashed and the sound disappeared, but the bullet screen's comment section was already in an uproar.
[This is the manager?!! Is this manager really Shi Ran's manager and not Wen Fei's?!]
[The manager drugged her own artist? What kind of operation is that?]
[Damn it! This Sister Qing is really something! How can such a person be a manager?]
[Don't tell me Wenfei and Shi Ran's fiancé really have something going on?]
Shi Wenfei caught her breath and forced herself to calm down.
The stereo had already been smashed. There wouldn't be any tricks now! The situation could still be salvaged. Don't panic…
However, in the next second, just when Shi Wenfei had calmed down, Shi Ran raised her eyebrows, took out her phone and tapped it a few times.
"You'd better not play any tricks. I'm the biological daughter of the Shi family. Now, you're just a dog raised by our family. Be sensible and don't covet what doesn't belong to you!"
The blood drained from Shi Wenfei's face upon hearing the sound. "What happened? Wasn't the stereo smashed?"
Feeling afraid, she reached out to snatch the phone from Shi Ran's hand.
Shi Ran immediately spun around, causing Shi Wenfei to miss and plunge into the sofa face first.
"You'd better follow the script for the interview later and think before you speak. Otherwise, if that sickling dies because his medicine is stopped, you, as his sister, will be the culprit!"
"It's fake!" Shi Wenfei panicked and blurted out, "It's all fake! You want to slander me! Staff, turn her phone off!"
A few male staff members rushed forward, but she managed to dodge them all, causing them to miss.
"You're afraid now? Then do as I say. Go along with whatever I say. What an idiot. Think of that sickly person. His life is in your hands!"
The recording then ended and Shi Ran kept her phone.
[!!!!]
[Isn't that Feifei's voice? She's actually so vicious!]
[The recording was faked, wasn't it? How could Feifei say something like that!]
[Is this the fairy the fans are talking about? She speaks so viciously. I've finally seen it for myself.]
Shi Wenfei slumped on the sofa, flustered and at a loss. She couldn't even care to settle the score with Shi Ran anymore.
This matter would definitely spread. If it trends… the anti-fans would definitely find an opportunity to cancel her. When that happens, she would really be finished!
Shi Wenfei's agent ran to her side. "Let's go. It won't be easy to leave when the reporters come."
Shi Wenfei was taken away by her manager. Before she left, she glared angrily at Shi Ran.
She had to make Shi Ran pay a high price for this!
Shi Residence.
Shi Wenfei had just stepped into the house when Mother Shi greeted her. "What's wrong, Feifei?"
"Mom, I'm so sad." Shi Wenfei hugged her mother. Tears streamed down her face and her mother's heart ached upon seeing her cry.
"Who bullied you?"
"All I did was get angry with my sister in the dressing room and say a few angry words. I didn't expect her to not only record it, but release it on the show! Now everyone's calling me a vicious woman. What am I going to do, Mom…"
Shi Wenfei cried even more pitifully.
At that moment, brakes squealed outside.
Soon, Zhou Yufan, who was dressed in a suit, walked in. When he saw Shi Wenfei's red eyes, his heart ached.
"Feifei, don't be anxious. I've seen the matter from the trending searches. I've already asked someone to minimize the exposure of this news. In addition, other news will be exposed to help cover it up. The only way now is to make Shi Ran admit that the recording is fake," Zhou Yufan said calmly.
Shi Wenfei bit her lip and carefully held Zhou Yufan's hand. "Yufan, do you also think that what I said was too much?"
"How can that be?" Zhou Yufan's heart ached for Shi Wenfei. "What you said is the truth. Don't be afraid. Leave it to me."
"How dare she!" Mother Shi had already found out about the entire matter through the hot search. She was so angry that her body was trembling. "I'll call her!"
Mother Shi then dialed a number which was picked up quickly. Before Shi Ran could speak, Mother Shi said angrily, "Shi Ran! Get back here now, or you'll never see that sickly person!"
