Zhi Yao didn't pay much attention to the last sentence. Her entire mind and gaze were focused on Pei Chiyao's first sentence.
Good food?! And a beautiful sister too!
You must know that Zhi Yao's two greatest pleasures in life were definitely eating and looking at beautiful women.
Who wouldn't love a beautiful woman?
"Let's go!" The little girl agreed without even thinking about it. No matter what it was, if it was edible, that was enough!
Zhi Yao was overjoyed. Seeing her smiling with her eyes curved, Pei Chiyao raised his long finger and gently wiped the corner of Zhi Yao's lips, saying, "Good girl, you're drooling."
Zhi Yao froze for a moment. After she regained her senses, she hurriedly raised her hand to wipe her lips, but her fingers didn't feel any wetness, only dryness.
That's when she realized she had been tricked.
Zhi Yao glared fiercely at Pei Chiyao and opened her mouth to bite his Adam's apple, "Humph, you tricked me!"
Pei Chiyao let out a light "hiss", not because it hurt, but because...
He raised his hand and forcefully pinched Zhi Yao's cheek, "You're asking for trouble again?"
The little girl didn't feel any pain. Her eyes welled up with tears as she hurriedly pleaded and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Pei Chiyao, I really know I was wrong."
"Too late."
The man's hands had already become rather unruly. Just as Pei Chiyao was about to properly discipline his mischievous little fox, the phone rang.
He ignored it, but Zhi Yao couldn't stand it any longer and urged him repeatedly, "Pei Chiyao, answer it quickly!"
She urged him several times before Pei Chiyao glared at Zhi Yao and reluctantly picked up the phone.
"Hello..." His voice was extremely cold, laced with annoyance.
The subordinate on the other end of the line immediately felt a little nervous, "Young Master Pei, you should... take a look at Weibo. It seems something strange has happened."
Something strange?
Pei Chiyao hung up and immediately opened Weibo. What came into view were countless Weibo accounts starting with "Ling" madly refreshing in the comment sections of various marketing accounts.
All of their posts contained only one sentence: Zhi Yao is the most beautiful! Zhi Yao is the best! Zhi Yao is the cutest little fox in the world.
Pei Chiyao: "..."
Don't tell him this was Ling Jue's doing.
Netizens were clearly utterly confused as well.
[123456: What the heck, did Zhi Yao's company buy some one-cent-per-comment bots?! They're so garbage, and they're all newly registered accounts too. This is way too obvious!]
[UpTheMountainToHuntTheTiger: But... Zhi Yao's agent is also Older Brother Sun... Older Brother Sun is the top agent in the industry. How could he make such a low-level mistake?]
[TheTigerWasntCaught: Is it possible that these are bots hired by her rivals? I've been in the industry for so long, and this is the first time I've seen such uniformly synchronized bots.]
[CaughtASquirrel: What you said is entirely possible. I thought The Legend of the Fox Demon was absolutely amazing. Last night, there were only good reviews, but when I woke up, they were all bad reviews! You can't convince me that someone didn't intentionally hire bots to sabotage Zhi Yao or The Legend of the Fox Demon!]
Zhi Yao was also huddled next to Pei Chiyao, looking at those comments. The accounts were all named things like "Ling334453423" or "Lingwfhsh" – in short, they all started with "Ling" but had various strange suffixes.
Even if Zhi Yao was incredibly dense, she could guess who was behind this.
The little girl could no longer hold back. She ran out in her bare feet and rushed downstairs. Before she even made it downstairs, she heard Ling Jue instructing from below, "Yes, that's right. Anyone who dares say our Yao Yao is ugly, humph! Don't let them off! Scold them! Insult them like they're Swiss cheese!"
"Exactly, Number Four, block all their accounts. Screw them, how dare they bully my daughter? Are they tired of living?"
"Number Three, keep posting. We have to push all the bad reviews down, or else if Yao Yao sees them, she'll definitely be sad."
Zhi Yao stood frozen at the stairs, the vast living room filled with Ling Jue's constant chattering and the sound of keyboards.
With a "creak", it seemed a door had opened. Zhi Yi emerged from the bedroom, feeling inexplicably drained lately. She had slept the whole day and had just woken up.
As soon as she came out, she saw Zhi Yao standing at the top of the stairs, her eyes red like a rabbit's. "Baby, what's wrong?"
She hurried to Zhi Yao's side, afraid someone had bullied her.
Seeing Zhi Yi made Zhi Yao even sadder. "Mother... let's not leave, okay? Please?"
She really... loved this life with a father and brothers so much.
It was so much better than just her and her mother relying on each other.
Zhi Yi was slightly taken aback and didn't speak.
At the same time, another trending topic quickly took the number one spot. Five minutes later, it showed an "explosive" trend, surpassing the previous #ZhiYaoBots and #Ling, becoming the new number one trending topic.
[Pei Chiyao V: Zhi Yao is the most beautiful! Zhi Yao is the best! Zhi Yao is the cutest little fox in the world.]
As this Weibo post went out, Pei Chiyao's fans went crazy. Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao's couple fans went crazy too. And Older Brother Sun... also went crazy.
[PeiChiyaosDog: What the hell is this situation? Did my bro also get his account hacked by the Ling family's bots?]
[PeiChiyaosXiaomiSupermarket: Who is it? Which hacker did this?! I command you to delete this post in three seconds, or else we'll absolutely make you experience cyber violence! [knife emoji] [bomb emoji]]
[YaochicpfansUnited: Mom ahhh! The couple I ship is real ahhhh! My ship has become official!]
[DidPeiChiyaoAndZhiYaoGoOfficialToday: They're official ahhhh! Happy New Year folks!]
[ZhiYaosMomFan: Mom fan's heart is broken.jpg, but considering it's the Young Master Pei, I'll reluctantly approve this marriage!]
All sorts of comments flooded Pei Chiyao's comment section. Older Brother Sun frantically called Pei Chiyao, but Pei Chiyao turned off his phone and changed his Weibo password.
His Yao Yao was originally the cutest little fox.
No one could say his Yao Yao wasn't good.
With this one post, no one cared about The Legend of the Fox Demon anymore, and no one cared about the suspected low-level bots hired by Zhi Yao either.
The scandal and gossip about Zhi Yao and Pei Chiyao's relationship swept through the entire entertainment industry. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a major earthquake in the industry.
Ling Er looked at the post and sneered coldly - did he think he could tie down his sister like this? How laughable!
That stinking scaly beast was so mismatched with Yao Yao!
He didn't agree with this marriage!
