Chapter 18: Slapping the Piano Master in the Face, Male Lead Enters (2)_1

The number one duck in the world?

Gazing at the golden sign before her, Lan Jin arched an eyebrow, "Is this where you're 'working' as a duck?"

"Pretty imposing, isn't it?"

Lan Yichen stood with his hands in his pockets, looking quite pleased with himself.

"..."

Feeling sheepish, Lan Jin kicked him, exasperated by the mix-up with the word 'duck' and scared out of her wits.

"Then you'd better work hard here over the weekend. You've got a bright future ahead, young man."

Lan Jin patted his shoulder earnestly, knowing that her brother was always wild and at a rebellious age, indeed in need of some serious tempering.

This morning, Chen Shasha released another extraordinarily long Weibo post trying to clear her name, saying she had misjudged people, thinking she had married a good man she could entrust her life to, only to find he was a scumbag.

Anyway, it was all about her sob stories... yada yada yada... a whole lot of it...

In short, it was all blamed on Wu Ze; she painted herself as a victim, pushing all the faults onto Wu Ze's shoulders, and successfully garnered a wave of sympathetic fans.

Unfortunately, the matter was far from over. That afternoon, the same Weibo sock puppet account released another explosive scoop—

This time it was a telephone recording, plus a few screenshots from surveillance footage, damning the pair to hell beyond redemption!

The images were somewhat blurry, but one could clearly see a sneaky-looking woman, fully armed with sunglasses and a mask, meeting up with Wu Ze, the two apparently plotting something.

After the meeting, Wu Ze immediately took out his phone and made a call, likely the same recorded call, which was very clear—

"Honey, I want to discuss something with you, what if... we get an abortion for now? We can have another one later..."]

["What do you mean, Wu Ze? You want to dump me, don't you? I'm telling you, no way!"]

["Just hear me out. Here's the thing: someone's offering us 1 million yuan for you to get an abortion, claiming it was due to the miscarriage caused by that beating last time. Think about it, the whole internet is watching you and the baby now. If we play our cards right, not only can we gain a load of fans, we can also make money. We're not losing out at all in this deal."]

["Isn't 1 million a little too little though? Is that all my baby is worth to you? Hurry back and let's discuss this further."]

...

The public opinion did a complete turnaround; it turned out that the whole affair was a staged drama by the Wu Ze couple themselves, utterly blinding the eyes of the masses!

In an instant, the internet was abuzz. The public's rage exploded uncontrollably!

The nastier the insults hurled at Lan Jin before, the uglier the curses at Wu Ze and Chen Shasha were now, even escalating to a witch-hunt.

They called for teams to take out the despicable couple, to send feces and wreaths to their home, coming up with every possible way to make life unbearable for them.

To forsake one's own baby for money, such inhuman beasts deserved to go to hell!

At the same time, Lan Jin's Weibo also blew up. Her followers skyrocketed, the comments section flipped instantly with voices of apology and abuse towards the couple, buzzing with activity.
