A cold smile appeared on Yun Xinyan's lips. She glanced at Chen Shanshan indifferently, then returned her gaze to her phone, opening another racing game and playing it casually. However, Ye Qiu and Jin Jinque had no intention of letting Chen Shanshan off so easily. Ye Qiu's voice was cold and indifferent as he said, "But I'll give you one last chance. Tell the truth, and perhaps this matter can be put to rest. After all, you came to us first, and you have to take responsibility. If you refuse to apologize, we'll have to escalate the situation, and then it will be up to you how you handle it."

Ye Qiu's voice was a faint warning, and he seemed somewhat displeased as he looked at the crowd.

Everyone's faces showed surprise. Ye Qiu and Jin Que were not the type in the entertainment industry who would easily interfere in other people's affairs, but today, for Yun Xinyan's sake, the two of them were both aggressive and unwilling to let Chen Shanshan go.

Chen Shanshan's expression immediately turned very ugly. She hadn't expected these two people to treat her like this for Yu Xinnian. Shanshan looked at her and begged, but in the end, she chose to surrender. She said, "I was just joking around with Shen Xichen because we're old friends. I didn't expect it to be posted on the hot search by someone with ulterior motives, which caused the misunderstanding. It's nothing serious, just a joke."

Ye Qiu's expression immediately darkened. He looked at Huang Shanshan with displeasure in his eyes, his tone cold as he said, "A joke? Such a big thing, a girl's reputation, and you call it a joke? Because of your joke, she's been cyberbullied online. Past things have been dug up, even an unintentional slip of the tongue has become dirt on her. You've hurt a girl so much, and now you just call it a joke? You're an adult. Your ordinary joke has caused such a big impact; you've committed defamation. I think you should pay the price for what you've done."

Chen Shanshan's expression turned extremely ugly. Every little thing they did was being recorded by Weibo live stream, meaning they were being watched by the entire internet.

She wanted to say something more, but then she remembered her past scandal involving a sugar daddy. She hesitated to think of another way, fearing the internet would remember anything if the people broadcasting it caught her doing something wrong. For now, her best course of action was to temporarily back down. She gritted her teeth and said calmly to Jin Que and Ye Qiu, "The key point is that I was wrong. I only meant to make a joke at first, I didn't expect it to have such a big impact. I apologize to everyone, and I especially want to apologize to Chen Xichen, who was the most affected by this incident. I hope you can forgive me."

Her words immediately provoked anger from the fans watching the live stream. Many netizens who had come to watch the drama were also surprised by this unexpected turn of events. People who had come from the trending topics were now flooding Huang Shanshan's Weibo with insults, leaving her Weibo account in a mess. Huang Shanshan's staff, seeing the live stream content on Weibo and not expecting the incident to suddenly involve her, rushed to the scene.
