Chapter 130: Counterattack
Song Ning was stunned when Cheng Che showed some of the online comments to her and Jiang Jin.
“How’s this possible? How can they even come up with so much nonsense?” This was beyond Song Ning’s understanding.
Jiang Jin, on the other hand, was calmer. “Child, don’t be angry. Since their mouths belong to them, we can’t control what they say. Don’t take their words to heart. They’re just a group of brainless people.”
Song Ning inhaled deeply before she said, “Grandma, I just don’t understand how they can be so vicious…” When she looked at Mu Chen, tears could be seen glistening in her eyes.
Mu Chen said, “The Internet is a filthy place so don’t take their words to heart.”
“But most of these people are young. If we don’t correct their behavior, their lives will be ruined…” Song Ning said worriedly.
Everyone fell silent.
In the end, Cheng Che said, “Sister-in-law, the public opinion is skewed, and it’s time for us to fight back. By the way, those fans who caused trouble at the hospital, do you plan to forgive them? If that’s what you wish, we’ll let them off after they publish a letter of apology on the Internet. Otherwise, we’ll bring them to court. Don’t be indecisive about this matter.”
Song Ning bit her lips and lowered her gaze.
Even Jiang Jin remained silent this time. This was Song Ning’s matter so she needed to make the decisions. No matter what, they would respect her decisions.
After a long time, Song Ning raised her head and looked at Mu Chen and Cheng Che as she resolutely said, “Let’s bring them to court. They need to be taught a lesson. I won’t be soft-hearted since they would only learn from their mistakes after they’re punished.”
Cheng Che nodded in agreement.
On the other hand, Mu Chen furrowed his brows slightly. “However, if we press charges, I’m afraid you’ll gain a reputation for being unreasonable…”
Jiang Jin reached out and held Song Ning’s hand as she said, “Ningning, don’t worry. The outsiders can say whatever they want; let them be. Just focus on ourselves and live well. Let Grandma tell you, life is long. What’s happening now is nothing in the grand scheme of things…”
Song Ning nodded and looked at Mu Chen and Cheng Che before she asked, “Is there anything else I can do?”
Mu Chen thought about it for a moment before he told her about the small reunion for Yi Yao’s production team.
Upon hearing these words, Jiang Jin grew visibly excited. She hurriedly said, “Ningning, you must agree to it! It’ll make the detractors shut up! Let’s show them how blind they are!”
Song Ning’s eyes shone with determination as she nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll attend the reunion. Let’s reveal the truth so these people won’t be led astray…”
Mu Chen and Cheng Che exchanged a look; Cheng Che could barely conceal the excitement flashing in his eyes. He was someone who was not afraid of getting dirty when watching a show.
…
Cheng Che’s counterattack was well-rounded and airtight.
The Mu Group’s PR team organized a press conference and announced that they would sue those people who went to the hospital to cause trouble on behalf of Song Ning and Jiang Jin. They would sue those people for slander and causing public disorder. The patients who were waiting in line that day were also willing to testify.
Following the announcement, a reporter questioned whether the Mu Group was too heartless for dealing with a group of children who were not even 18 years old in such a harsh manner.
The public relations manager replied, “Miss Song has expected this question. She’d like to pose a rhetorical question in return: If a simple apology can solve problems, why would there be a need for the police? If you’ve done something wrong, you’ll have to bear the consequences of your actions. This also serves as an example to others. It’s fine to support celebrities, but please be rational. Apart from that, Miss Song also has something to say to those parents who said they can’t control their children: If you can’t control your children, then let the police do it.”
…
Immediately after the press conference, the video of the incident at the hospital was uploaded in its entirety on the Internet, garnering many comments.
Some people questioned if the idol of the fans should be held responsible for their fans’ actions.
There were also people who felt that the fans were instigated by their idol’s subtle comments and created trouble, and many agreed that said idol had intentionally fanned the flames. Otherwise, the young fans would not have caused so much trouble.
After the video was uploaded, public opinion began to sway.
With this, Ye Xin was again pushed into the limelight. She did not think much of it in the beginning since more publicity was good for her. She even thought her brother had planned this out for her.
In front of the camera, Ye Xin even addressed her fans to be rational and to not act recklessly. She told them she would use her diligence and ability to overcome this difficulty before she thanked them for their support.
Upon seeing this, Ye Xin’s fans were moved by her determination. Many stayed all night to discuss the matter and vowed to help her regain her love.
At the same time, Ning Xia’s fans also publicly announced that they supported Ning Xia’s successor and that they trusted her and believed in her.
When Song Ning read the comments, she could not help but smile wryly. She grew even more disdainful of the entertainment industry and was even more determined to never enter the industry again.
