After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God

Translator: _Min_

The message was from five minutes ago.

She pressed her temple, then replied.

[You explain? Explaining would only dig your own grave. Shut up and stop talking nonsense. Do you still want to live?]

Pei Mengzhi, who had just gone through the arduous process of registering a Weibo account, jolted awake after reading these words.

His hand trembling, he hastily deleted the tweet he had crafted.

Box

Indeed, explanations could serve as cover-ups.

As soon as he spoke, netizens would only think he had been enthralled by Si

Fuqing and planned to abandon Zuo Qingya.

What should he do now?

In a flurry, Pei Mengzhi dialed a number. “Hello, Miss Si! Save me! Please, have mercy and rescue me!”

“Stay put.” Si Fuqing was unsympathetic. “I told you to come find me after the talisman burns. You, a grown man, are like a turtle looking at the sky.”

Pei Mengzhi was confused. “Why a turtle?”

Si Fuqing replied, “Hesitant and timid.”

Pei Mengzhi: “…”

Just as Si Fuqing hung up on Pei Mengzhi, another call came through.

“You’re trending again! Seriously, should I get a PR team for you?” Qu Lingyun spoke in a rushed tone. “Look at what you’ve been turned into online.”

Si Fuqing, lounging with one leg crossed over the other. “I don’t have the money, and I don’t care. Let them talk. Will it cost me a single hair?”

“Hold on.” Si Fuqing clutched her phone. “My boss is here to see me. I’m stepping out; you continue talking, I’m listening.”

She grabbed her coat and exited the lounge, making her way to the outdoor training area.

Feng San was waiting beside his car.

And he was not alone; five other individuals, both male and female, stood behind him, all attired in professional suits.

“Miss Si,” Feng San stepped forward. “Your trending topics are getting frequent, and you’re busy with work. Brother Nine has specially arranged a PR team from the city of Sijiu. If they’re not up to the task, we’ll replace them.”

“Since it’s a gift from the boss, I’ll gladly accept,” Si Fuqing winked. “Why is the boss so generous? As an employee, I’m incredibly inspired! I will work hard to be a model worker!”

Qu Lingyun, who was still on the line, was puzzled.

Double standards?

Feng San coughed awkvvardly, “Alright, Miss Si, let them handle today’s matters. If you have any requirements, just say so.”

The leading woman handed over a business card, “Hello Miss Si, we are from the Xingting Law Firm, ready to serve you diligently.”

Si Fuqing nodded, then responded, “Okay.”

Then, as if remembering something, she turned suspicious. “This isn’t going to be deducted from my salary, is it?”

Feng San was lost for words, “…No.”

“Alright then,” Si Fuqing returned to her laid-back demeanor. “I’m going back to work. Call me if you need anything.”

“Hold on, hold on!” Qu Lingyun finally had a chance to speak. “What did I just hear? Xingting Law Firm?”

“Let me see,” Si Fuqing glanced at the card. “Yes, that’s the name. It sounds rather nice.”

Qu Lingyun: ‘

You hired a professional law firm to serve as a PR team?

This was quite the lavish move.

He just couldn’t understand, “Who is your boss? Even able to pull strings with Xingting Law Firm’s top lawyers. Why are you still living like this?”

“How wealthy my boss is, that’s his business,” Si Fuqing spoke indifferently.

“What’s mine is mine. We’re not family.”

“That’s true,” Qu Lingyun was still curious. “But who exactly is your boss? This is Xingting Law Firm we’re talking about!”

Si Fuqing spoke nonchalantly: “My boss is a paragon of elegance and charm, a man of unparalleled beauty. He’s the snow in the sky, the moon amid the clouds, the purest light, the rarest gem. How can there be such a perfect person in the world?”

Qu Lingyun:

What kind ofbootlicking was this?

He rubbed his temples, “Alright, now that you finally have a PR team, I’m relieved. Let’s discuss some film-related topics.”

Si Fuqing entered the training base.

Outside, Feng San drove away.

“Prepare to clear the trending topics,” the professional-looking woman glanced at her watch. “Document the IDs of netizens who participated in this rumor. I’m giving you half an hour.”

On the other side, at the Pei Corporation.

Mrs. Pei had been swamped these past few days, hardly having time to eat. She had just managed to stabilize the company’s financial chain and could finally catch her breath for a moment.

She casually inquired about the situation online.

“Mrs. Pei, when we last checked, the trending topic had already been removed,” said the PR manager. “Not only that, but all the other negative news has also vanished. Even the tweet from Miss Zuo Qingya now has the tag ‘This tweet contains false information.”

“Quite resourceful,” Mrs. Pei sneered. “It seems they’ve hired a PR team. Go ahead and post a tweet as I instruct. If she’s not after the Pei family’s money,

I’ll write my name backward.”

The PR manager immediately posted a tweet as per Mrs. Pei’s orders.

“[@PeiCorporation: Sir is busy, Madam is also busy; we really have no time to school an outsider. We hope Miss @SiFuqing would be aware of her own limitations; Pei family is not a place you can enter, and the young master is not someone you can covet.

Don’t think that making up some fantastical words will get you into a wealthy family. Please behave yourself! Considering that you were once mentored by Old Master Zuo, we’ll let it slide this time.]”

As soon as this tweet was posted, the haters started buzzing and onlookers hurriedly joined in.

[No wonder the trending topic was removed so quickly. This must be true since even the matriarch of the Pei family has spoken. How could it be false?]

[The trending topic was suppressed really fast; just a second ago I saw it was still around the twenties, then the next second I refreshed and it was gone. Si Fuqing really must have a backer.]

[It seems that Mrs. Pei really hates Si Fuqing, not giving her any face and directly confronting her online.]

[Let’s be honest, no matter how rich those stars in the entertainment industry are, there’s a barrier between them and the true elites. The Pei family has deep roots in Lin City, how could they possibly fancy an actress?]

[What does Si Fuqing have to say now? I don’t know why her fans follow her, a person of such poor character.]

[To be honest, Si Fuqing is quite bizarre. That rain ritual she did made me feel uneasy. I don’t know what kind of mumbo jumbo she was talking about. What exactly does she do?]

The PR manager said respectfully, “Mrs. Pei, it has been posted as you instructed.”

“That’s good,” Mrs. Pei replied indifferently. “A mere celebrity trying to compete with power and influence, claiming that I have been suffering from ‘cold evil’ for over a decade waiting for death, I really want to see what consequences there will be.”

At the Pei residence.

Pei Mengzhi had been closely monitoring the trending, even using an alternate account to confront Zuo Qingya.

That was until the trending disappeared in a second.

The phrase “This post contains false information” appeared on Zuo Qingya’s tweet.

Pei Mengzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could fully relax, he saw the post from the Pei Corporation.

His expression changed drastically, and he immediately tried to call Mrs. Pei to persuade her to stop.

Then he saw a newly created verified Weibo account forward the Pei Corporation’s statement.

[Mrs. Pei, impressive indeed, telling blatant lies with such ease. You know very well whether your son has a fiancée, and so can we find out.

By the way, Miss Si asked us to pass on a message to you. The lawyer’s letter for spreading rumors, you should accept it; compensation for defamation, you should pay it, be prepared [smile]

You wanted to know what consequences your actions would have? Miss Si also said, within five days, the Pei family company, must fall..]
