Xu Yanyu glanced at everyone's comments and said with a smile, "There are quite a few more people today; everyone wants to know how things are progressing."

The number of viewers had already exceeded 60,000 in less than five minutes since the live stream started.

It seems her teasing yesterday wasn't for nothing.

"Hurry up and bring out the melons, we're here just to eat melons."

"Melons, melons, melons! The badger in the melon patch is already thirsty."

"Everyone else is just watching the drama unfold, am I the only one here to see the beauty? Big beauty, give me a smile, I love to see that."

...

Xu Yanyu was amused by everyone's eager comments.

Her smile caused a gift effect to appear on the screen.

"Wow, so beautiful!"

"No wonder she became famous for her good looks."

"You look even more beautiful today; your eyes are shining."

Xu Yanyu adjusted her posture, ready to get down to business.

"I won't keep you all in suspense any longer, let me tell you about my progress."

"Well, I already hired a lawyer yesterday, and I've entrusted my case to professionals."

Xu Yanyu is known for her decisive and efficient work style. She wanted to take advantage of the current buzz to resolve the contract as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the longer it drags on, the more tricks Hongsen Entertainment will have up their sleeve.

She can't compete with large companies with dozens or hundreds of employees on her own.

As soon as she finished speaking, the comment section exploded.

"Sis, following you always leads to some juicy gossip. You're really something else."

"Ah... Xu Yanyu, have you seen the clarification statement issued by Hongsen Entertainment? Do you think you can win the lawsuit?"

"Hongsen Entertainment said it was just normal business entertainment, and there were no so-called unspoken rules."

Xu Yanyu was taken aback when she saw the comments from netizens; she hadn't actually seen Hongsen Entertainment's clarification statement.

"Where did they post the clarification statement... Oh, it was Hongsen Entertainment's Douyin account."

Upon seeing the comments from netizens, Xu Yanyu picked up her phone and began searching.

She put down her phone after reading it.

Hongsen Entertainment told her to produce evidence, or shut up.

How thick can a person's skin be?

Human nature is too treacherous; how could the original owner possibly defeat it?

The naive original owner always trusted her agent and never thought of keeping any evidence for herself.

Brother Jin is cunning and shrewd, and he always keeps his tracks very well hidden.

Perhaps they were so confident that they hadn't given themselves away that they dared to push someone to the brink.

Following the trail, netizens in the comments section also saw Hongsen Entertainment's clarification.

Netizens, always eager for drama, urged her in the comments section to refute the allegations and bring the other party to their knees.

Xu Yanyu sneered. She wasn't afraid. It was just public relations and a smokescreen.

They're not the only ones who know how to use it.

She sat back down and said bluntly, "Do you think I have to give them whatever they want?"

Haven't you noticed they're panicking? If they were truly innocent, why would they issue a clarification statement?

"Do you think I'll give them whatever they want? Do you think I'm some kind of cow that they can drive wherever they want?"

By showing them the evidence I had, didn't I just let them succeed? Didn't that make it easier for them to counter my moves and fabricate facts?

Do you really think I'm stupid?

Xu Yanyu finished speaking, but some people just wouldn't listen.

"Without Hongsen Company, could you have become famous? Even if you want to terminate your contract with the company, you can discuss it properly first. Why make such a big fuss on the live stream?"

"Making a big fuss about encountering unspoken rules without any evidence—do you think you're not famous enough and want to gain attention this way?"

"Sis, let's bring out whatever evidence we have and smash this company to pieces."

"The comments section is acting strange today. Could it be infected by paid trolls?"

"I can't tell who's right and who's wrong anymore. I feel that it's really wrong of Yan Yu to smear the company without any evidence."

"The gossip on the internet keeps changing. I want to support Xu Yanyu, but I'm afraid that she might have some dirt on her later, and then I'll be proven wrong again."

"It's better to just stay quiet and be a bystander, without making any statements."

...

In a conference room at Hongsen Entertainment, Jin Ge and A Qi sat on the floor, watching the live stream on the big screen.

Their boss sat at the head of the table, leisurely smoking.

The boss took a puff of his cigarette and glanced contemptuously at Xu Yanyu on the screen.

He exhaled a smoke ring before looking at Jin and his companion. "The PR team I hired for 300,000 yuan is still useful. You two should learn from them, be more cautious, and use your brains."

"The boss is so smart! Once this storm passes, I will never let Xu Yanyu off the hook."

Jin's bruises hadn't faded yet, but that didn't stop him from flattering his boss.

"Ha, the bigger the trouble she causes, the bigger the fall will be. Apart from our company, no other company will dare to hire her in the future."

"If she didn't stay in the entertainment industry, she would never be able to come up with that astronomical breach of contract fee." The boss of Hongsen Entertainment stared at the screen with a gloomy expression, the hatred in his eyes almost materializing.

He built up a lot of connections in order to deal with Xu Yanyu's matter.

He took a deep drag on his cigarette and continued, "I'll squeeze every last penny out of her for the public relations expenses I've spent."

"Hey, boss, don't worry, this money tree won't escape our company." Ah Qi rubbed his hands together, flattering Brother Jin.

Xu Yanyu had long sensed that something was amiss today.

After a day of buffer time, it's unlikely that Hongsen Entertainment would simply issue a clarification statement.

Perhaps many of the viewers in her live stream are paid trolls from her company.
