BXBX NOVEL Chapter 520 on the same level
"Here!" Bai Ze raised his phone and gave it to Shen Ji Yun.
Shen Ji Yun didn’t think much and just indifferently glanced at the screen of Bai Ze’s phone. He wondered what the other wanted to show to him that he had to come here in a hurry. But when he read a few sentences from the Weibo article that Bai Ze had shown him, all his nonchalance instantly vanished.
He grabbed the phone and read the article thoroughly. The more he read, the darker the expression on his face became. By the end of it, anyone who was looking at him would think that his face would drip ink because of how dark it was.
He thought that that would be the extent of it. But when he reached the comments, it was even worse. The things that people said were simply unacceptable that it almost made him want to throw the phone just so he wouldn’t be able to see it. The things he read lacked so much logic that he wondered if the people who wrote them had peas for brain.
When Shen Ji Yun first read the article, he thought that no one would believe such obvious scam. But apparently, there were many idiotic Weibo user who would start to believe anything as long as some other few said that it was the truth. And now, from what he had seen, majority of people on the comments really believed the contents of the article.
He gave the phone back to Bai Ze and then took out his own to look for the same article.
Bai Ze accepted his phone. He’s active on Weibo and often browsed on it for entertainment purposes. Who would have thought that he would actually see an article about his cousin’s game account name targeting him? He almost made a statement on Weibo using his White Marsh account to clarify everything.
Good thing that he managed to stop himself. If he rushed into things, he might make the situation worse than it already was. So, he quickly rushed here to Shen Ji Yun.
"What should we do with this?" Bai Ze asked. "It’s obvious that someone was trying to pour dirty water on Xiao Yan’s game account. Should we take down this article?"
Any member of their team could immediately shut down this article. After all, all of them belonged to influential families with loads of money to spare.
"No, let’s contact Yan Yan first and ask his opinion," Shen Ji Yun said while constantly screen-shotting the comments and username of those people saying bad things about ’Noctis’.
His first thought actually was to simply sue everyone for defamation. From the writer of the article to the people commenting. And then he would ask his uncle to talk to the PR department and tell them to release a statement telling everyone that ’Noctis’ and whoever this live streamer might be were two different people.
But then he remembered the instances when Luo Yan scolded him for going behind his back. He didn’t want a repeat of that. Besides, he knew that Luo Yan was not a fuel-efficient lamp. He would definitely have his own idea of how to deal with this kind of situation. Shen Ji Yun also had a feeling that Luo Yan would prefer that than them fixing things for him.
Bai Ze was a bit surprised hearing that. Knowing how much this friend of his liked Luo Yan, he was sure that he would be raving mad right now and just directly deal with this situation before his cousin find out about it. He didn’t expect him to be so, well, reasonable.
If this was his uncle or his older cousin, they would definitely be fuming right now. Maybe at the end of the day, the writer of this article would be apologizing and retracting their statement. Maybe their Weibo account would even be banned. And the worst case? They’d be in jail.
"I’ll call Yan Yan later once his afternoon class is over," Shen Ji Yun said while still busy screen-shotting.
Although, just the thought that Luo Yan would have to know the things that these brainless people were saying was already filling him with incredible anger. He hated how gullible people could be. He hated the writer of this stupid article. But most of all, he hated the one who instigated all of these. Because it was pretty obvious to him that there was one or maybe a group of people who pushed the situation into this direction.
Bai Ze nodded, agreeing to what Shen Ji Yun had said. Then, he became curious as to why the other was still staring intently at the screen of his phone.
"Are you actually reading all the comments?"
Shen Ji Yun nodded. "I’m taking screenshots of the username of all the people who said bad things about Yan Yan. I’m going to report all of them and make sure that all of their account will be suspended."
Of course, he would do it right after he asked his rabbit how he would like to handle this thing.
When Bai Ze heard Shen Ji Yun’s reason, his evaluation earlier was completely negated. [Yup, he’s definitely on the same level as Uncle Tian and Brother Ren.]
Luo Yan just ended his call with Su Yuqi. Right after the end of his afternoon class, the other called him. And yes, it was about that article. He was actually quite surprised that she would be the one to call him first. Right there and then, he realized that Su Yuqi already thought of him as a close friend. Which really made him happy.
He just finished the call when his phone rang again. When he saw the caller ID, a sweet smile quickly appeared on his face. "Brother Ji Yun."
"Yan Yan, that- ahm, have you- I mean—"
"If it’s about that article on Weibo, yes, I have already read it," Luo Yan said, finishing what the other wanted to say.
Shen Ji Yun was probably having a hard time asking him that. Knowing him, he was probably thing that he might unintentionally hurt him because of the content of that article and comments following below it.
Just like he thought, that was exactly what Shen Ji Yun was thinking. "Are you alright?"
Hearing the worried voice of the other, Luo Yan’s heart was simply filled with warmth. He actually wanted to act like a baby but he was still walking towards the parking lot and he didn’t really want other students to hear his coquettish voice. So, he could only say;
"Yes, I’m fine. Don’t worry, Brother Ji Yun. I’m not so fragile that I will be affected by something like this."
Shen Ji Yun felt relieved when he heard that. "Do you already have a plan?"
"How about we meet later at headquarters and I’ll tell everyone what my plan is?" Luo Yan suggested.
Shen Ji Yun didn’t hesitate to agree.
