[Luo Bao Is the Prettiest] Oh my god, what happened to my darling's face? It looks so swollen.
[A Luo Bao] Those injuries look like someone hit her. Who dared hit our baby girl!
[Puff Pastry Ball] My darling is so dedicated. Her face is like that, and she's still worrying about whether she can go on the variety show. @Chai Kezhusiji Director Zhu, could you postpone the show for our baby girl?
[Luo Bao Support Group] Just a few days ago, Luo Bao said she was going home to rest for a few days after finishing her drama. You can tell from the background that she's at home in this photo, so she might have gotten hurt at home. Could someone in her family have hit her?
[Oh Luo Luo] Luo Luo has always said her family dotes on her and often orders her fancy takeout. It couldn't have been her family. But she said a distant relative came to stay and keeps clinging to her. Really annoying. Could that poor relative have hit her?
[Our Baby Girl Is the Prettiest in the World] Hey, the person above me, Luo Luo just liked your comment! She unliked it right away, but you must be right!
[Light of Xingluo] Damn it, so it really was that broke-ass relative! I'm going to talk to our lead fan, Brother Guan, about how to tear that broke-ass relative to shreds!
The supposedly accidental like and unlike had been deliberate on Lu Xingluo's part. Even if it lasted only a second, those protective parent fans of hers were sure to see it.
Seeing that they were going to find her top fan, Lu Xingluo smiled even more broadly.
The account with the ID None of Your Peace belonged to her top fan. One look at that name told you he wasn't someone to mess with. If he found out Li Yi had hit her, he would definitely do everything he could to make Li Yi suffer.
None of Your Peace had incredible hacking skills. In the past, he had helped her by hacking the computers of haters who posted unflattering photos of her.
Finding someone now should be as easy as could be.
Satisfied, she put her phone away and quietly waited for things to unfold.
Once Li Yi was hurt by her fans, she would pretend she hadn't known and make a show of feeling wronged on Weibo as she urged her fans to stop, then give Li Yi some money for medical expenses. That would show how kind and generous she was while establishing her image as someone levelheaded who could rein in her fans.
Imagining how battered Li Yi would look, Lu Xingluo felt that even the injuries on her face hurt less.
Li Yi looked down at Sheriff, who was circling him and meowing sweetly, and lectured him earnestly. "You already weigh fifteen jin. Even the vet recommended that you lose weight. You really can't eat any more."
Hearing that there would be no canned food, Sheriff couldn't be bothered to keep up the act. He gave a little growl, bit Li Yi's pants, and ran into the next room to do parkour.
Watching the fifteen-jin fat cat leap nimbly onto the top of a cabinet and stare down at him with wide eyes, Li Yi couldn't be bothered to indulge his antics. He put his bag on the shelf, turned on his computer, and prepared to research the specific care requirements for Chinese lantern lilies.
Chinese lantern lilies originated in South Africa and preferred warm, humid environments with plenty of light. Their ideal growing temperature was 15-22°C, and they tolerated neither heat nor cold...
As he read, QQ in the lower-right corner suddenly started chiming nonstop. He stopped browsing the information and opened QQ, which he hadn't checked in a long time.
A screenful of mentions greeted him.
[Luo Luo Fan Support Group 1]
Light of Xingluo: @Brother Guan Brother Guan, someone bullied our baby girl! Hurry over!
Seeing that name, Li Yi finally remembered that he had another identity: Lu Xingluo's most loyal top fan, and the person who had propelled her to fame as the Nation's Daughter.
The light from the computer screen fell across Li Yi's face. He narrowed his eyes, his long, straight lashes concealing most of his dark brown irises.
Back then, he had been able to put Lu Xingluo where she was now. Now, he could pull her down from that position too.
None of Your Peace: None of my damn business.
After he sent that message, the group fell silent for a full minute. Everyone stared at his name and the words following it.
Light of Xingluo asked cautiously: Brother Guan, are you making a joke about your name?
None of Your Peace: No. From now on, anything involving Lu Xingluo is none of my business. I'm leaving the fandom.
Luo Bao Ball: Brother Guan, did something happen to you? Did you get dumped, go bankrupt, or get scammed?
None of Your Peace: Scammed, I guess.
Light of Xingluo breathed a sigh of relief: Come on, who hasn't been scammed? Real-life stuff doesn't have to affect our fangirling. Just vent online about getting scammed in real life.
There's someone waiting to get flamed right now. I guarantee you can curse to your heart's content.
I still remember that epic three-day, three-night battle when you led us against the rival fandom.
You never repeated a single insult. Of all the anti-hater campaigns I've joined, that was the most satisfying!
If cursing online isn't enough, we can even track the person down and beat them up so you can let off steam!
None of Your Peace: Oh? Who do you want to curse out?
Light of Xingluo: [Screenshot] Look how badly our baby girl's face got beaten up. She endured it without saying anything and was only worried about whether she could make it to the show. My heart is breaking for her.
We all think that broke-ass relative staying at her house did it.
Brother Guan, why don't you investigate?
None of Your Peace: [Smoking.gif] No need to investigate. That broke-ass relative of hers did it.
The group immediately erupted. Everyone clamored to go beat up that broke-ass relative in person.
Some had even started organizing the beating.
But the very next second.
None of Your Peace: She deserved it. I think that broke-ass relative went too easy on her with just two slaps.
Light of Xingluo was dumbfounded: Brother Guan, what's wrong with you? This is our baby girl. The baby girl you personally made famous.
None of Your Peace: Exactly. I was blind back then. Now I can see again.
At first, no one believed him. But gradually, they saw with their own eyes that None of Your Peace's Weibo account had left the super topic and fan groups. He had even deleted every single Weibo post about Lu Xingluo.
He had created that Weibo account specifically for Lu Xingluo and had only ever posted about her. Now that those posts were deleted, all that remained was the very first post he had written, full of hope.
None of Your Peace: Starting everything anew. Here's to happiness and joy.
Lu Xingluo had even commented at the time, wishing that all his dreams would come true.
How ironic!
Li Yi deleted that post too, leaving his Weibo blank again.
Before he had time to leave the QQ fan group, Light of Xingluo started frantically tagging him.
Light of Xingluo: Brother Guan, are you serious? I only became Luo Luo's fan because of you. If you leave now, what are we supposed to do?
A whole group of longtime members had become Lu Xingluo's fans because of Li Yi. His abrupt decision to leave left them all bewildered.
There was also a group of new fans who didn't understand what was happening. They felt that Li Yi could leave if he wanted, but turning around and attacking their baby girl on his way out was another matter. They all began calling him ungrateful.
The longtime fans had a deeper bond with Li Yi. Although they had never met in person, many fan events had only gone smoothly because Li Yi had contributed both money and effort.
They weren't going to give up until they got to the bottom of this.
