Why was the whole internet cursing her out again?
Could this be some dirty trick Lu Zhou had deliberately cooked up to force her out of the entertainment industry?
Then she certainly couldn't pretend she hadn't seen it.
A good argument added years to your life; a good round of cursing opened up boundless skies and seas.
Su Mian rolled up her sleeves. Time to get to work!
Su Mian first swept through the haters:
[Su Mian is such a gold digger. That bracelet on her wrist is from a niche international luxury brand. How could a nobody like her afford it? She probably sweet-talked some man into buying it for her.]
Su Mian: [Even a wild boar like you recognizes fine bran?]
[Am I the only one who thinks Su Mian is really scheming? She'd definitely be the devious type at work. Straight-gutted people like me hate that kind of person most.]
Su Mian: [No wonder your mouth stinks so much. Your asshole connects straight to your mouth!]
[Aaaah, so sweet! The world is one giant Tomato Novel story. Nuonuo is the female lead, the top donor is the male lead, and we're all the NPC netizens losing our minds in it!]
Su Mian: [Sorry, you may be an NPC, but I'm not. I'm the supreme god of this world, because the world plunges into darkness whenever I close my eyes.]
Beside her, Duan Xuanyu, who had just registered a social media account, opened his phone and saw Su Mian arguing.
He went to support Su Mian too, leaving his very first comment on the internet:
Duan Xuanyu: [And I am the emperor.]
The Cotton Candies, who had been helping Su Mian fight the haters, all stopped typing and switched to clapping and cheering!
[How does Tyrant Bro manage to be so deadpan and funny every single time...]
[No wonder he's every Cotton Candy's legitimate ship! This is exactly the right mental state!]
After bonding with the haters, Su Mian went to bond with Lu Zhou too.
Although there wasn't any evidence yet to prove he had done it.
But even if she accused him unjustly, so what? Would her conscience hurt?
Not in the slightest.
Su Mian: [My ex-boyfriend @Starry Entertainment CEO Lu Zhou came downstairs to my place last night and said he wanted to give me his life... Scared me to death. His worthless life is all he has. I don't want it.]
[God, how unlucky to end up with an ex like that! They've broken up and he still won't give her any peace!]
[This is my first time seeing a female celebrity publicly tear into her boyfriend. I wish I could live as bravely as you just once, sis!]
[It's not just that she's brave enough to roast her ex. The key thing is that she's the boss! Sob, I only dare curse in my head...]
#Su Mian's ex-boyfriend Human Head Bro: "I'll give you my life" literature# Exploding
#Su Mian's legitimate ship Tyrant Bro: Digital emperor# Exploding
#We're not NPCs! Everyone is the supreme god of their own world!# Exploding
The sky came crashing down on Lu Zhou again the moment he went online.
He considered reposting it with a comment, and considered firing back.
But considering that this was currently the only place where he could communicate with Su Mian, he ultimately did nothing.
The sky also came crashing down on Fang Nuonuo the moment she went online.
Wasn't today's biggest sensation supposed to be the top donor traveling a thousand miles to pursue his wife?!
Why was Su Mian trending again? Why?!
At last, the bus arrived at the zoo entrance.
Everyone got off.
Su Mian stretched, feeling thoroughly refreshed.
Suddenly, she heard Huang Han chatting with Fang Nuonuo behind her.
"Truly authentic pizza cooks in eighty seconds. The place next to my alma mater is absolutely perfect. Pair it with a cola or some red wine, and that's what you call truly enjoying yourself..."
Fang Nuonuo looked at him admiringly. "Oh my gosh, I'll have to try it if I get the chance."
Su Mian walked past and tossed out an insult: "Poser."
Lin Xi, who was beside them and had also studied abroad, couldn't help his lips curling when he heard Su Mian's insult.
When he had first returned from studying abroad, he would sometimes forget how to say something in Chinese and involuntarily use a foreign word.
But those were always words rarely used in Chinese, certainly not words like "cola."
This guy really was a complete poser.
[Good one, Mianmian! What a foreign-worshipping moron. Eating a foreign flatbread somehow gave you a superiority complex!]
[@Bestie, come look look at how other people speak. It's leaving me stunned one time after one time.]
[But was Mianmian calling the top donor a poser, or Fang Nuonuo?]
[Knowing Mianmian, it was probably an indiscriminate attack...]
Huang Han narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Mian.
Back on the bus, he had already asked Fang Nuonuo about everyone's educational backgrounds.
He knew Su Mian hadn't attended a prestigious university.
Hah, a mere graduate of a non-985, non-211 university dared mock someone who had studied abroad! The natural order had been turned on its head!
Huang Han took the initiative to embarrass Su Mian. "Teacher Su, I hear your alma mater is only a non-985, non-211 university?"
Duan Xuanyu suddenly leaned over and asked Su Mian, "What does that mean?"
Su Mian answered very seriously, "Very good, very great."
Duan Xuanyu's eyes lit up. "Wow."
[Help, Tyrant Bro actually said wow.]
[Sob, Mianmian spoils him so much. Without Mianmian, who else would humor Tyrant Bro like an idiot?]
[Sob, Tyrant Bro spoils her so much. Without Tyrant Bro, who else would play along with Mianmian's nonsense so well?]
[Tyrant Bro actually doesn't know what non-985, non-211 means? Don't tell me he's a nine-year compulsory education escapee!]
Huang Han, who had intended to bully Su Mian over her education, hadn't expected her to have no inferiority complex whatsoever!
The corner of Huang Han's mouth twitched. "Don't you feel the slightest bit ashamed to show people your academic credentials?"
Su Mian said, "I never feel inferior about anything to do with myself. How else could I maintain my mental health?"
She paused, then added, "Oh, actually, that's not true. The only thing I'm ashamed to show people is my ex-boyfriend."
[Human Head Bro, why did you have to go downstairs to her place last night and provoke her?]
[My university wasn't prestigious when I first enrolled either, but later it worked hard and upgraded itself to Double First-Class status! At this point, sensible universities have already started working hard to level themselves up so their students won't feel ashamed to show them off!]
Seeing that Huang Han was still going to pester Su Mian, Lin Xi suddenly walked over and asked, "Which university did you attend in Handsome Country?"
Lin Xi now regarded Su Mian as the greatest rival of her life.
He had to avenge his explosive diarrhea with his own hands.
He wouldn't allow any other idiot to steal Su Mian's attention from him!
Huang Han said, "The University of London, of course."
Lin Xi took out his phone. "I know quite a few people there. What year were you? I'll talk to my friends about you."
Huang Han froze.
Back on the bus, he had also discussed this with Fang Nuonuo. This Lin Xi really had studied abroad.
Huang Han hurriedly spoke again. "I remembered wrong. Actually, I attended..."
Lin Xi said, "Go ahead. I know people at every decent university in that country."
"..." Huang Han rubbed his nose. "Educational discrimination is wrong, so I won't say. I don't want to make certain guests with less education feel inferior."
Although he had done his best to salvage the situation, the audience still realized he really was a poser.
He must have attended some diploma mill he was too embarrassed to name, or never studied there at all and was just putting on an act.
[Uh... The top donor tipped ten million, so why is he still bullshitting about his education? Putting on airs is one thing, but why discriminate against other people too?]
[Maybe he's the nouveau riche boss type. People make a point of emphasizing whatever they lack.]
Lin Xi walked up to Su Mian, curled his lips slightly, and said quietly, "You don't need to thank me. I just couldn't stand that poser myself. I wasn't standing up for you."
"Of course I have to thank you. I even prepared your thank-you gift in advance." Su Mian took a packet of something from her bag. "Here. Montmorillonite powder."
It was a well-known diarrhea medication used by both humans and animals.
Lin Xi's face instantly darkened.
This Su Mian had a heart of iron and stone!
He had helped expose that poser's true colors, and not only had she failed to give him so much as a thank-you, she was actually dancing on his sore spot!
He strongly suspected Su Mian was subjecting him to a compliance test!
[Sob, I'm shipping them again! He stands up for her, she gives him medicine... Mortal enemies become a ship!]
[I really can't ship this one, because all I see in their eyes is the desire to win. There's absolutely no romantic tension...]
Amid the guests' harmonious, cheerful atmosphere, Yin Xiaohong began introducing today's task.
