Ye Nanxun was really overthinking this time.
The crisis management response proposed by Zhiyuan Media was for Xia Yao to apologize as soon as possible, but not to directly admit to smearing Ye Nanxun. Instead, they cleverly shifted the blame elsewhere.
But Xia Yao was unwilling. She couldn't bear the thought of apologizing or accepting defeat so easily.
It was Lu Zi's words that finally silenced her.
"Xia Yao, as someone in the same boat as you, I'll remind you one last time: let it go."
"Don't keep going after Ye Nanxun. If you continue like this, the only career you have left will be ruined in a heartbeat. This is your only chance."
"I've said my piece. Whether you listen or not, it's up to you."
...
Xia Yao did take the advice into account this time, but she wanted to disgust Ye Nanxun one more time. Therefore, she posted a blog identical to Ye Nanxun's previous post and decided to apologize the next day.
