The online bullying was triggered by a video in which Ling Yi was supporting Bai Mengyan, and Bai Mengyan had her head almost touching Ling Yi's chest, a very intimate gesture.
The video is very short, less than a minute long.
This is a surveillance video. Both of them happened to be facing the camera, and because they were very close, the video was captured very clearly.
The surveillance footage is, of course, the surveillance cameras inside this guesthouse.
This surveillance camera wasn't far from Courtyard No. 1. Ling Yi remembered clearly that he and Bai Mengyan had stood under a street lamp for a moment.
Ling Yi originally wanted to keep Bai Mengyan at his home, after all, cough cough...
She was urged to return by a phone call from her agent.
Fortunately, Ling Yi secretly treated her, since the Ten-Thousand-Year Black Tortoise Soul Ring itself possesses powerful Life Essence Qi.
Ling Yi's Soul Power has healing effects...
The video footage showed them looking very intimate, but only Ling Yi knew what Bai Mengyan was actually doing.
Ling Yi touched her stomach; there was still a row of tiny teeth marks on it.
At that time, Ling Yi had to painstakingly suppress all his power so as not to hurt Bai Mengyan.
The news about " Reincarnation's " identity being exposed had already been trending online, and now, with Ling Yi and Bai Mengyan releasing this video, it's no wonder the internet is exploding.
One reason she was subjected to cyberbullying was because Bai Mengyan's fans, especially her male fans, couldn't handle it.
Another reason is that some people are stirring things up and secretly causing trouble.
If it were just online bullying, Ling Yi wouldn't care at all and wouldn't pay any attention to it.
However, this matter affected Bai Mengyan, Ling Yi certainly couldn't ignore it.
Ling Yi opened the Points Store and directly purchased two items.
A USB drive containing the main program of the intelligent program " Red Queen". Liu Peiqiang had previously obtained this reward from opening treasure chests in the Game Space.
In the real world, there are no Transcendent powers, and an intelligent life form like the Red Queen is more than enough.
However, to unleash the full potential of the Red Queen, a top-notch server is still needed.
Therefore, the second thing is the liquid Quantum server.
The two items completely wiped out Ling Yi's points.
The liquid Quantum server, in particular, is too expensive, costing a full Wu Bai points.
What does Wu Bai points mean? Wu Bai points can buy a Nascent Soul Formation Pill, the kind of pill that allows you to become a cultivator and enter the Nascent Soul Stage stage in one step.
It's still the version without side effects.
However, there's a reason why it's expensive.
Watching a pile of silvery-white cesium liquid flow into Ling Yi's Computer case, in the blink of an eye, the computer case, monitor, headset, camera, and other hardware underwent tremendous Changes.
The once clunky Computer has been transformed into something with a futuristic feel.
After he died, Ling Yi stuck the USB drive into the computer case.
"Hello boss, my name is Red Queen!"
The image of a little girl in a red dress popped up on the Computer screen.
"From now on, your name will be Xiaohong Hong. Delete all negative news about me and Bai Mengyan online. Find the people and companies behind this and give them a good beating."
"Boss, I'm a bad girl, this kind of thing is my specialty." Xiaohong revealed a wicked little expression.
Ling Yi had a bad feeling and quickly reminded him, "You better be careful. Use proper methods if possible, and don't let anyone die."
"Boss, please rest assured, everything will be done according to your wishes."
I'm not at all reassured!
Ten minutes later, Ling Yi breathed a sigh of relief. "Yeah, don't worry, Hammer!"
Xiaohong's methods for handling things were extremely simple, without any violence.
Any account that Bai Mengyan will have all its content deleted and be permanently Sealing.
When encountering illegal or irregular activities, they thoughtfully prepare the evidence and present it to the local inspectors as part of their performance record.
"666!" Ling Yi gave Xiaohong a thumbs up.
Just then, Ling Yi's phone rang; it was Bai Mengyan.
Ling Yi felt inexplicably guilty.
"Hello..."
"Hey you, open the door! I'm at the door!"
"What a tragedy!"
Ling Yi opened the door and saw Bai Mengyan walk in with a girl who was about the same age as her.
Bai Mengyan went straight to Ling Yi, grabbed Ling Yi collar, and asked fiercely, "Tell me, what are you going to do?"
"Ahem, whatever you say, we'll do." Ling Yi raised his hands in surrender.
"You said it? Then let's get married!"
Are you serious?
"You don't want to?" Bai Mengyan angrily.
"No."
"Then let's get married. We'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau in a bit."
Ling Yi lived two lives. In his previous life, he was still single at the age of forty. In total, he was single for more than sixty years.
Now he's suddenly married, and the person he's with is Bai Mengyan.
It feels so unrealistic; the plot is way too much like something out of a novel!
"Give me an answer, are you a block of wood?" Bai Mengyan shoved Ling Yi.
Ling Yi wanted to say, "Isn't this too fast?" But looking at Bai Mengyan's eyes, he didn't dare to say it.
All I could say was, "Okay!"
I'm hungry!
"Uh, I'll go cook!"
Watching Ling Yi rush into the kitchen, Bai Mengyan couldn't help but chuckle.
" Bai Mengxu, is this the solution you promised?" the girl next to Bai Mengyan angrily.
"Otherwise!"
The girl's name is Yun Jing, and she is Bai Mengyan's agent. The two are also best friends and can talk about anything.
Ling Yi and Bai Mengyan announcement isn't necessarily a bad thing.
After all, Ling Yi's status and reputation are not low, and coupled with his handsome appearance, he is quite a good match for Bai Mengyan.
As for online bullying? In Yun Jing's view, it's all a minor matter.
Anyway, it won't affect Ling Yi at all; he's not even in the entertainment industry.
As for the negative impact on Bai Mengxu?
It all depends on how things work out. If Ling Yi and Bai Mengyan really get together, a bad thing might turn into a good thing.
"But, do you really like Ling Yi? You've only known each other for two days at most, right?" This was the question Yun Jing cared about most.
"We're already in the car, what do you say? Let's get married first, then talk about dating!"
Yun Jing asked softly, "Last night, was it you who initiated it, or him?"
Bai Mengyan blushed; it's really hard to say.
"Could it be that you initiated it? Bai Mengxu, you're really something. I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be such a female hooligan?"
"Sigh, it's all the alcohol's fault."
"Why blame them for drinking alcohol? You're probably just craving it..."
" Yun Jing, shut up!" Bai Mengyan quickly covered Yun Jing's mouth.
Well, alcohol only accounts for 50% of the effect; the remaining 50%... can only be blamed on impulsiveness.
The atmosphere at that time, the ambiance—once Little Huo, it was impossible to contain!
Just then, a rich aroma of food wafted from the kitchen...
The three of them were busy all day and didn't return to Ling Yi's house until 8 p. m.
"Register a blog, and we'll officially announce it there later!" Bai Mengyan looked at the marriage certificate in her hand, her expression somewhat dazed.
"Isn't that unnecessary? Making an official announcement now would just add fuel to the fire, wouldn't it?"
"You don't want to? Are you afraid I'll embarrass you, or do you have other ideas?"
"Absolutely not!" Ling Yi said weakly.
"Something's not quite right!" Yun Jing said, putting down her chopsticks.
"What's wrong?" Bai Mengyan asked worriedly.
"The trending topics are still there, but mostly with well wishes. The Little Hei have completely disappeared. Zheng Haiyang is a ruthless guy; would he give up so easily?"
"Let me see!" Bai Mengyan grabbed Yun Jing's phone.
The trending topics were still about Ling Yi and her, but the tone had changed drastically. She scrolled through the comments for a long time and found not a single angry comment.
Apart from a few off-topic comments, everything's been censored.
The most liked comment was one asking Bai Mengyan a message to Ling Yi, urging him to come back and continue writing his novel.
"Did the company intervene?"
"I'll call and ask!"
The result of her questioning surprised Yun Jing even more: on that day, more than 60,000 people across the country were arrested and taken to police stations.
These people are the same group that plays online gambling.
The minor offenses are fines and public reprimands; the serious ones involve being put on a sewing machine, and some of these people may never be able to get out of there again.
Take Zheng Haiyang, for example, the one Yun Jing mentioned.
Without exception, all of these people participated in Bai Mengyan's actions.
" Zheng Haiyang is finished. Not only is he finished, but his Laozi was also implicated and was invited for questioning at noon."
"Who is Zheng Haiyang?" Ling Yi asked.
"A Madman pursuing Bai Mengyan, but why?"
Bai Mengyan stared at Ling Yi for a long while, then stood up and walked towards the bedroom.
He then beckoned to Ling Yi with his finger and said, "Come with me into the bedroom!"
Ling Yi's eyes lit up, and he followed the alluring figure into the bedroom.
"Bang!"
The bedroom door was slammed shut.
"Holy crap, it's only eight o'clock! Aren't you guys in a bit of a rush? When did our Bai Mengxu become so wild?" Yun Jing exclaimed in disbelief.
Yun Jing thought for a moment, then turned and left helplessly, still trying to figure out what was going on.
This matter is too bizarre; she won't feel at ease until she understands it.
Around midnight, Ling Yi's figure suddenly appeared in the living room.
As for what exactly happened during those three or four hours, well, it's hard to say!
In any case, Ling Yi used his healing Soul Power again.
Ling Yi opened his player attribute list, tapped it with his finger, and the next moment his figure disappeared from the living room.
The Game Plaza was bustling with activity; the number of players was constantly increasing, with players appearing and disappearing continuously.
" Ling Yi, you're here!" A surprised voice came from behind Ling Yi.
Ling Yi turned around and saw that it was Huang Rong.
But at this moment, Huang Rong was dressed in modern clothes, wearing a white midi skirt, her hair tied in a ponytail, and a pair of boots.
It must be said, this version of Huang Rong is truly stunning.
"Just logged in?" Ling Yi asked.
"No, I've been online for an hour. Aren't I waiting for you to play the new game together?"
