Wen Xing sat on the sofa opposite Wen Nian and let out a soft sigh. “I’ve always been aware of the gossip that circtes in the entertainment industry. If 1 had known earlier, your mother and I would have strongly advised against epting Director Xu’s invitation. Your intention was to make a meaningful film and bring hope to those who are being bullied. But now, you are being cyberbullied!”
Zhou Mei felt a surge of anxiety when her husband mentioned cyberbullying, causing tears to well up in her eyes. She nervously asked, “What should we do? Will the cyber bullying be really severe? But those reports are all false! Will no one believe us?”
Wen Nian harbored suspicions that these individuals were being paid to carry out their actions. If that were the case, they wouldn’t care about the truth. No matter how much she tried to exin, they would twist her words and craft reports that were misleading and taken out of context, all in an effort to deceive others.
Observing her mother’s anxious expression, Wen Nian realized that revealing the truth would only cause more distress. Quickly, she sought tofort her. “Mom, please don’t worry. Maybe once these reporters help us rify the situation, this matter wille to an end. Even if it turns into a big issue, we can handle it gradually and let it go.”
When Zhou Mei heard Wen Nian’s words, she calmed down a little.
Wen Xing nced at the wall clock and noticed that it was almost ten o’clock. Reacting swiftly, he stood up and urged everyone, “Let’s hurry to the airport and ask the driver to speed up so that we can catch our ne on time.”
As the situation unfolded, Wen Nian couldn’t help but conceal a subtle smile on her lips, knowing that the real show was about to begin.
Wen Nian raised her head once more, a slight frown appearing on her face. “Dad, I’ve been thinking about it, and I think we shouldn’t leave today. I’m concerned that they might return to harass Mom again. Moreover, 1 want to uncover the mastermind behind all of this. Otherwise, the narrative portrayed in these reports will undoubtedly be controlled by others.”
Wen Nian convinced Zhou Mei and Wen Xing to return to the shop while she decided to stay home alone, awaiting Huang Yue’s next move. She believed that by staying behind, she could potentially confront Huang Yue and uncover the truth behind the orchestrated attacks.

Wen Yu reached for his phone, intending to make a call, but then he realized that he didn’t even have the transfer student’s contact number. Feeling a bit foolish, he could only wait at the entrance, unsure of what else to do.
Suddenly, a young girl who appeared to be around 11 or 12 years old approached Wen Yu. “Older Brother, are you waiting for your girlfriend? Buy her a cotton candy! It’s delicious, and it only costs five yuan,” she eximed with a cheerful smile.
Wen Yu nced down and noticed the little girl holding up a cotton candy that was twice the size of his face. It appeared fluffy and round, with a gentle pink hue. He shook his head politely and replied, “I’m just waiting for my ssmate.”
That should be an attempt at courtship. She was well aware!
The little girl yfully rolled her eyes and spoke mischievously, “Oh, I see! It must be a beautiful female ssmate then. Brother, girls love sweet treats. Buy her one. Boys need to be more attentive, you know!” Her mischievous grin hinted at her yful advice.
The little girl’s words brought to mind Feng Li’s breakfast habits. Every day, she would enjoy various sweet cream cakes, leaving Wen Yu perplexed as to how she managed to maintain such pristine teeth. The thought lingered in his mind, leaving him curious about Feng Li’s dental hygiene secrets.
Amused by the thought, Wen Yu couldn’t help but smile helplessly. As he looked up, he noticed two girls around the same age as the little girl working at the cotton candy stall nearby. Curiosity piqued, he approached them and asked, “Are you helping your family with the stall?”
The girl responded with a proud tone, “Yes, we’re making use of the winter break to work and study!”
Wen Yu smiled and raised his eyebrows, intrigued by the girls’ dedication. He extended his hand to ept the cotton candy and said, “In that case, I’ll take one.”
The girl’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she swiftly presented the QR code for payment. Her grin widened upon hearing the sound of the transaction beingpleted. “Thank you, Brother! I hope your confession goes well!”
After those words, the little girl dashed away, leaving Wen Yu blushing in embarrassment. He raised his voice and hastily exined, “I purchased it because I know how challenging it can be to juggle part-time work and studying. We’re simply regr ssmates!”
In the distance, a small figure, disguised with sunsses and a cap, observed the unfolding scene from a distance.
Despite the disappointment of Wen Yu’s continued animosity towards her until the veryst moment of her departure, Feng Li couldn’t help but feel a sense of happiness as she stole a nce at him before leaving. Wen Yu had been her final mission before embarking on her overseas studies.
Having taken on numerous missions, this was the first instance when Feng Li truly understood the meaning of being emotionally affected. Last night, she had nearly confessed impulsively to Young Master about her desire to remain in the country for further studies. However, when she considered how Wen Yu had been avoiding her, she ultimately chose to keep silent.
Upon her return to the country to work for the Shen Corporation, Feng Li spected that Wen Yu would likely have forgotten about her very existence.
Feng Li gently wiped away the tears welling up in the corners of her eyes. With onest lingering gaze at Wen Yu, she reluctantly turned away and walked off..
