Yan Xuelan's thoughts of disciplining her sister suddenly stalled; would she be criticized by netizens for disciplining her?
In fact, given her status, she's quite used to being attacked by public opinion and insulted by haters. Unless things get too out of hand, she doesn't bother to care. After all, letting netizens vent their anger is one of their responsibilities as celebrities.
But she couldn't stand the netizens' distorted views and warped values. Why was she being criticized for her reasonable discipline of her younger sister?
She didn't want to believe the information in the voice that suddenly appeared, but when she thought about Yan Yulan's recent suspicious behavior, she couldn't help but believe it.
Well, anyway, Yan Yulan probably wouldn't listen anyway, so she couldn't be bothered to do it.
She swallowed what she wanted to say, and simply waved her hand at Yan Yulan, saying, "In that case, call a car back yourself. Remember to send me a message when you get to the guesthouse."
When Yan Yulan saw the disapproving look on her sister's face, she knew that her sister wouldn't agree easily and might even lecture her.
However, she wasn't afraid of her older sister, since her sister always ended up giving in in the end anyway.
Upon hearing Yan Xuelan speak, she instinctively wanted to retort.
She was stunned after hearing Yan Xuelan's words clearly. Huh, her sister actually told her to go back by herself!
Even though her sister had agreed, which should have been a happy thing, Yan Yulan felt extremely uneasy, as if something was missing, and for a moment she even forgot to go back.
Until Yan Xuelan's voice rang out again, "What, don't you want to go back again?"
Yan Yulan seemed to snap out of her reverie. Remembering that Chu Xiao could chat with her during his lunch break, she immediately stopped dwelling on that strange feeling and quickly said, "Go back, of course I'll go back! Sister, don't worry, go and have fun with them. I'll take good care of myself."
After saying that, she quickly went to the roadside, hailed a car, and then...
Seeing Ye Jin Yan Yulan jumping around impatiently, Ye Jin's heart stirred again.
[Could it be that Yan Yulan is in a hurry to go back to her lover? Could it be that she made an appointment with Chu Xiao? Are they going to have a phone play?!]
[Tsk tsk tsk, let me see, in the original novel, Yan Yulan really often hid in the bathroom to video chat with Chu Xiao during his lunch break!]
[Sigh, I can only say that Yan Yulan isn't hopelessly stupid; at least she knows to avoid the security cameras and hide in the bathroom.]
Having endured several trials of inner turmoil, Yan Xuelan was quite used to the voice, but she was still startled. Couldn't they even tolerate it for a little while?
Yan Xuelan's expression darkened. Perhaps this was also her chance to find the truth. She should find a reason to go back and check on things later.
Chapter 26
Ye Jin sighed as she watched Yan Yulan's retreating figure. Taking advantage of the moment while taking a photo, she took out her phone and logged onto a popular social media platform to see what netizens thought of this scene.
But public opinion disappointed Ye Jin.
Perhaps due to the inertia of the plot, or perhaps because people felt that Yan Yulan, being an ordinary person, posed no threat, no online trolls intervened. There weren't many people criticizing Yan Yulan online, and quite a few even supported her.
[Who understands! My experience is the same as Yan Yulan's when we travel; we just change locations and sleep for a day.]
[Me too! I don't want to squeeze into crowds to see any tourist attractions; I just want to stay in my hotel, binge-watch TV shows, and order delicious local takeout.]
[But you guys are paying for it yourselves! Yan Yulan is participating in a travel show. If everyone does it like this, the show can't be filmed.]
[But haven't some people already gone out to have fun? Yan Yulan is just an ordinary person, she probably doesn't understand the show's production effects or anything like that. Can everyone please not be so harsh on a recent college graduate?]
Ye Jin:...
[Ugh, it seems like netizens have really gone crazy in a world with warped values. Have they been brainwashed?]
No, I must find a way to correct the online public opinion.
Xu Yan, who was hiding among the staff not far away and had heard the whole story, was also indignant. Although the two families were in different situations, she could easily confuse Yan Yulan with her ungrateful younger brother.
Therefore, she had the same idea as Ye Jin.
Of course, as the production team, she couldn't allow the PR team to have any particularly obvious preferences, but that's okay, there's plenty she can do.
For example, she could edit together footage of Yan Yulan slacking off, seemingly praising her but actually criticizing her, and then have it widely disseminated by marketing accounts. She figured that if many people saw it, no one would doubt that Yan Yulan had a problem.
With that thought in mind, she immediately took out her phone and began instructing the publicity team.

After Yan Yulan left, Yan Xuelan remained calm, chatting and laughing with everyone while enjoying the scenery.
However, after about half an hour, she suddenly clutched her abdomen and looked at everyone with a pained expression.
"Excuse me, I suddenly have a stomachache. It's probably an old problem acting up again. Luckily, I brought my medicine, but it's in my suitcase. I'm afraid I'll have to go back and take it."
Everyone was reasonable, so they naturally nodded in agreement.
The production team, not wanting their guest to have any problems on their show, quickly sent a car and asked Yan Xuelan if she needed to go to the hospital. After receiving a negative answer from Yan Xuelan, they added, "Ms. Yan, if you feel you can't hold on any longer and need to go to the hospital, you must tell us."
Yan Xuelan nodded in agreement, then quickly got into the car sent by the production team and returned to the guesthouse, clutching her stomach.
Ye Jin watched Yan Xuelan's retreating figure, her heart filled with excitement.
[Has fate finally opened its eyes? Will Yan Xuelan run into them if she goes back now?! I can't wait! Waaaaah, I really want to go back and watch the drama unfold.]
[What excuse should I come up with to go back? Maybe I should pretend to be sick? The sun is so strong now, isn't heatstroke quite possible?]
Just as she was about to feign fainting while looking around at the people, news came from the production team that the afternoon's visit to the attraction would be postponed by two hours, so everyone could return to the guesthouse for a nap. Of course, those who didn't want to go back could also do as they pleased.
