Si Zhuoxi stepped over the crowd and arrived at Si Jinyan and the others in just a few strides.

Si Jinyan's hair had just been messed up, but she had already tidied it up, and her jet-black hair was now scattered on her slender back.

Her elegant, aloof, and utterly cold eyes swept over the stunned fans.

"There are several bruises on her legs." Si Zhuoxi frowned, having noticed some dark bruises on her fair legs from afar.

My beloved junior sister was treated like this by her own fans. If I were more capable, how could I not have protected her?

He was hating himself for being incompetent.

"I'm sorry, Jinyan." It wasn't "Junior Sister," but Jinyan.

It seems Si Zhuoxi is really angry this time.

"I'm fine, Second Brother." She gave a bright smile to show that she was really alright.

"These are your fans, their manners are terrible. And you, you can't even manage your fans properly." Si Jiangyu walked over with a cold face, carrying the takeout food.

Now he's even giving Si Zhuoxi a cold shoulder, and just now someone pulled his junior sister's hair.

Si Zhuoxi also admitted that he did not play the role of an idol. As an actor, he should let his works speak for themselves, rather than relying on his appearance to attract fans.

If that's the case, what fans will he have left when his youth fades?

It seems that after filming this movie, I really should take some time to reflect. The entertainment industry is like a place of fame and fortune. If I don't change my career path, what will I do when I get older?

Perhaps this is also an opportunity.

Si Jinyan left Yipin Hot Pot with her two senior brothers. As she was leaving, a water bottle was thrown directly at her face.

She reached out and grabbed the water bottle, her beautiful eyes sweeping coldly over the surroundings. She saw a girl shrinking her head and trying to hide in the crowd.

Si Jinyan couldn't take it anymore. If she hadn't reacted quickly enough, her face would have been injured.

What would it look like if a full bottle of water hit someone's face?

She darted to the girl's side in a flash. "Did you hit me?"

None of the others had seen how she got to them, and they all looked at her.

The girl was initially a bit timid, but seeing so many of her friends watching, she gritted her teeth and admitted it.

"So what if I smashed it? Who told you to seduce our Zhuoxi brother?"

Just as Si Jinyan was about to say something more, the surrounding voices rose again.

"You're the one who used the drowning boy to create hype online, aren't you?!" someone said, waving their phone.

"Vicious woman, wicked, disregards human life!" This remark caused a huge uproar, with insults and curses erupting everywhere.

"Si Zhuoxi, do you think this matter can't be handled through the law?" Si Jiangyu's face was now as black as coal. What would have happened if his junior sister hadn't reacted just now, or if his junior sister wasn't a cultivator?

His face was smashed and bleeding? Disfigured?

"Yes, it would be better to call the police." Si Zhuoxi decided not to hold back any longer and took out her phone to call the police.

Si Jiangyu, on the other hand, filmed some videos as evidence.

The police arrived shortly afterward. Out of a sense of responsibility to the people, the police first retrieved the surveillance footage from inside and outside the restaurant.

So the police invited the men who had started the fight to the police station for questioning.

They were just a bunch of rabble who relied on their numbers. Now that they saw someone go to the police station, they didn't dare to stay here anymore. What if they got a criminal record later?

The most serious case involves the girl who threw the water bottle; she is now suspected of intentionally causing injury.

Si Jiangyu refused to settle privately, and no matter how much the girl begged, he did not budge.

Si Zhuoxi posted about the incident on Weibo, expressing her stance that the internet is not a lawless place and those who spread rumors will be prosecuted.

Furthermore, they directly uploaded the video of the girl throwing the bottle to the internet.

[I, Si Zhuoxi, am an orphan, and they are my family who grew up with me. My sister risked her life to save someone, yet this has been spread online in such a way. We will sue all those who spread rumors and maliciously edit and disseminate this story. Furthermore, after filming "The Origin of the Mortal World," I plan to take some time to reflect. Also, my fan club and supertopic will be disbanded today. I, Si Zhuoxi, am an actress, and I hope to be loved through my work.]

Si Zhuoxi logged out of Weibo after posting this message.

This sparked a huge controversy, and Si Zhuoxi's fans were divided into two camps.

One group consists of fans who are simply fans of Si Zhuoxi's career, while the other group consists of fans who are fans of her as a girlfriend.

Now it's just fans arguing and insulting each other.

However, some rival fans came in to stir up trouble, and within an hour, Si Zhuoxi topped three trending searches.

As a result, Si Jinyan, an ordinary person, also became a trending topic.

He even decisively retired from the entertainment industry for his sister, and so on.

Some mothers even felt sorry for them being orphans and expressed their continued support for Si Zhuoxi.

Meanwhile, the opposing side took this opportunity to hire online trolls to spread comments that were unfavorable to Si Zhuoxi, and even some that tried to influence public opinion.

They made a big fuss about the fact that they weren't biological siblings, and even spread very dirty rumors about it.

Si Jinyan, on the other hand, was quite carefree. She didn't have such a social media platform and had no idea how people outside were criticizing her.

It was already past 5 p.m. when Si Jinyan got home. She put the food in the microwave to heat it up and then focused on eating the meat.

Si Zhuoxi and Si Jiangyu couldn't eat anything. They looked at each other and went straight to the study.

Si Zhuoxi called Jialan's director to tell him about terminating the contract. Because this was a big deal, the director immediately informed the president.

At first, President Jialan did not agree to terminate the contract, but later, for some unknown reason, he agreed.

As for the breach of contract penalty, we'll discuss it after filming "The Origin of the Mortal World".

At this point, the public opinion on Weibo completely changed.

A video started being shared by major influencers.

The video shows a woman and a little boy, with the boy lying in a hospital bed.

The woman standing next to him looked very tired. In the video, she explained why she hadn't come forward to thank Si Jinyan in the past few days.

“My husband pushed my son into the river with his own hands. That night, he took the child out for a walk, and I was tidying up the house.” The woman took a deep breath to calm herself down as she said this.

"He pushed the child into the river with his own hands because he had been cheating on his wife for three years. After the divorce, he didn't want to pay child support, so he chose to push the child into the river."

As the woman spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. She clasped her hands together, as if forcing herself to calm down.

“I’ve been taking care of my child at the hospital these past few days. I’m so sorry that because of me, a righteous girl has been subjected to inexplicable cyberbullying.”

"The police are already processing the evidence that the child was pushed into the river. I will thank that kind girl in person after the child wakes up. Thank you."
