Becoming a great entertainer started with being cyberbullied.

When Fang Ruoxi got home, she discovered that she had been cyberbullied again.

The clues were finally revealed by Zhang Xiaomeng.

As soon as she entered the house, Zhang Xiaomeng pushed her into the bedroom, "Hey, Ruoxi, you've had a long day, you should get some rest!"

Fang Ruoxi was both amused and exasperated. "Then you should wash up before going to sleep."

Zhang Xiaomeng said dryly, "Oh, well, okay then."

Nowadays, few people go to the bathroom without their mobile phones, and Fang Ruoxi turned around to look for her phone.

When Zhang Xiaomeng saw her looking for her phone, she immediately panicked, "Hey! I think it's okay not to wash! Why don't you just sleep like this!"

Fang Ruoxi: "..."

She raised an eyebrow slightly and squinted at Zhang Xiaomeng.

"What? Is there something on your phone that I can't see?"

Zhang Xiaomeng: "..." Her mouth was closed like a clam shell.

Then, thinking about the missing phone, Fang Ruoxi knew what was going on.

She simply held out her hand, saying, "Give me your phone."

Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Zhang Xiaomeng had no choice but to confess.

After mumbling her words, she quickly added, "You really don't need to watch it!"

"Director Zhou and Chen Tianhou have both spoken out for you, and Zou Rong, he even hired a lot of online trolls to stir up trouble, this..."

Fang Ruoxi simply took matters into her own hands and found her phone in Zhang Xiaomeng's coat pocket.

As soon as I turned it on, the phone kept ringing.

She first went online to check the situation.

Having roughly figured out what was going on, I started replying to text messages from relatives and friends.

Director Zhou: [Was Yeh Hui-wan really going to slap you backstage?]

Fang Ruoxi didn't want to talk about this matter, but seeing that Director Zhou was still unaware of the details and was so protective of her online, she briefly explained what had happened.

Director Zhou was furious after reading her reply.

Director Zhou: [Originally, Yeh Hui-wan was a truly talented person! But look at her these past few years! She doesn't do any creative work anymore, just clings to those old things every day!]

Director Zhou: [What you said is absolutely right! She was hit where it hurt!]

Director Zhou became increasingly angry as he thought about it.

Director Zhou: [She should know best what really happened! She could have resolved it with just a single word! But she's been playing dead until now!]

Director Zhou: [Ugh! How can Ye Huiwan be such a bad person!]

Touched by Director Zhou's trust, she replied half-jokingly: "Director Zhou, this is just my side of the story, why do you believe me so readily?"

Director Zhou sent a 'soybean rolling its eyes' emoji.

Director Zhou: [The whole backstage saw you arguing about this, right? What's the point of lying? Someone will just expose you eventually.]

Director Zhou: [Alright! It's past 1 a.m., you should go to sleep. I see the online sentiment has completely skewed. Your company's young boss seems pretty reliable.]

Fang Ruoxi felt a warmth in her heart.

Normally, Zhang Xiaomeng wouldn't hide this from her.

The only way Zhang Xiaomeng could keep this from her was if Zou Rong gave her confirmation and told her not to worry.

Fang Ruoxi opened the company group chat and directly tagged Zou Rong:

Fang Ruoxi: [Thank you so much, Mr. Zou.]

Zou Rong posted a meme of a big shot smoking a cigar.

Call me CEO Zou: [Ruoxi, go to sleep. These little devils are all trash.]

Call me CEO Zou: [Hey, just you wait and see, by 8 a.m. tomorrow at the latest, Ye Huiwan will come out to clarify!]

Call me CEO Zou: [What the hell! Who would want her trashy husband?]

[Flicking it onto people is considered 'throwing feces at people'! Even monkeys in the zoo don't play that dirty!]

"Hahaha~" Zhang Xiaomeng, who was secretly watching from outside, burst into laughter.

Fang Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh.

I do feel much more at ease.

Indeed, with so many people behind the scenes, it's possible that someone overheard her conversation with Ye Huiwan from beginning to end.

Thinking of this, Fang Ruoxi put down her phone and went to sleep.

……

Ye Huiwan was taken back to the old house.

Originally, she felt utterly disgusted when she saw her husband, Zhang Xun.

But after Zhang Xun said just one sentence, she obediently followed him home.

"The Empress Dowager wants to see you."

Ye Huiwan returned to the Zhang family's main residence late at night.

The Zhang family all knew that the old lady suffered from severe insomnia.

After 10 p.m., unless Tianyin is about to go bankrupt, no one is allowed to disturb her rest.

But this time, when Ye Huiwan entered the house at 12:30 am, Uncle De blocked her in the entryway and said:

"Madam, the old lady is waiting to see you in her room."

Even Zhang Xun was taken aback. "Now?"

Uncle De nodded, "Yes, Fourth Master."

Ye Huiwan followed Uncle De all the way to the master bedroom on the first floor of the south section of the old house.

She had never been here before.

Within the Zhang family, only the old lady's direct granddaughter, Zhang Hanyu, is allowed to enter and exit this place.

Uncle De pushed open the door and gestured for Ye Huiwan to go in.

He stopped outside the door.

Ye Huiwan entered the room.

The room was not brightly lit, but rather dimly lit.

The Empress Dowager, dressed in a silk nightgown, was half-reclining on the bed. When she saw Ye Huiwan enter, she smiled kindly and waved to her.

"Come, Awan, come and sit down." The Empress Dowager patted the edge of her bed.

Ye Huiwan was flattered. "Chairman, I just came back from outside and haven't changed my clothes yet."

The old lady feigned anger, "We're all family, how could I possibly find you dirty?"

"Come here quickly, it's warm here, it's getting cold outside at night now."

Touched, Ye Huiwan walked over and sat awkwardly on the edge of the bed.

"You worked hard on the performance. We all watched it. You made the Zhang family proud. Good boy."

When this is mentioned, Ye Huiwan inevitably thinks of Fang Ruoxi's song "As You Wish".

She felt like a thorn had been planted in her heart, and even her smile seemed somewhat forced.

The old lady asked again, "Did you listen to Fang Ruoxi's song tonight?"

Ye Huiwan pursed her lips and nodded almost imperceptibly.

I didn't just watch it.

She also knew about what happened on the blog.

On the way, Zhang Xun was also unhappy because netizens had criticized him, blaming her for dragging him into the mess, and even asking her to come forward and refute the rumors.

But Yeh Hui-wan wouldn't listen.

Seeing those netizens cursing Fang Ruoxi made her feel relieved and like she had gotten rid of a lot of anger.

"Oh? What do you think of her?" the Empress Dowager asked.

Under the dim, warm light, the old man with a full head of silver hair had somewhat cloudy eyes.

But if anyone thinks she's old and her eyesight is failing, then...

Ye Huiwan cautiously replied, "She is indeed talented."

Zhang Shiwenjun's long-term insomnia made her not very patient at night.

"Ah Wan, you know that's not what I want to hear."

Ye Huiwan's face was pale, and her body seemed to be swaying slightly. "She, she is more talented than I was back then."

The old lady raised her hand and brushed a stray strand of hair from Ye Huiwan's sideburn. "There are many talented people, but not everyone can become a member of the Zhang family."

"The biggest difference between you and her is that you have the Zhang family behind you."

Ye Huiwan looked up, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, "I...I'm sorry for the guidance you've given me."

Taking advantage of this momentum, Ye Huiwan revealed what had happened backstage.

The Empress Dowager's expression was calm, and it was impossible to tell whether she had heard about this before.

"Silly boy."

"If you wanted to smear her, you shouldn't have said that conversation in a crowded place."

"Given the current situation, even if you don't speak up, sooner or later someone will overhear your conversation and reveal the truth just to grab attention."

"Won't you become the villain then?"

Although the old lady said that, Ye Huiwan only thought that she was protecting Zhang Xun's reputation and the Zhang family's prestige.

The old lady gently patted her knee and instructed her, "What level are you in? What level is she in? If you just say what she said to you in a more subtle way, those netizens will naturally fill in the blanks and make wild guesses."

“If you apologize again, they will feel sorry for you, which will only make Fang Ruoxi seem more aggressive.”

With just a few words of guidance, Ye Huiwan suddenly understood.

"Alright, it's so late, you must be tired. Go and get some rest."

Ye Huiwan obediently stood up, respectfully said goodnight to the Empress Dowager, and was about to leave when the Empress Dowager called her back.

"If you don't respond tonight, remember to explain tomorrow morning. Just say you were too tired from last night's performance and went home to rest."

"Remember, the more humble you are, the more arrogant others will think Fang Ruoxi is."
