Ye Xiu's declaration at the press conference didn't dispel many people's doubts. Stubbornly insisting on using someone, who was universally regarded as having subpar skill, received all sorts of criticism. The forums, in particular, had lots of nonsense like An Wenyi was Chen Guo's sugar daddy, and he could not be kicked because of the boss's authority. Numerous people actually accepted this conjecture, quite a few were even Demeter's fans.
Fortunately, the reporters weren't so unreasonable and only criticized Team Demeter's obstinacy.
"Team Demeter's future this season is looking quite good, but perhaps it will end because of their stubbornness!"
