"Charity is like a brick; you can move it wherever it's needed."
"What a clever woman. She quickly stepped forward to do this when she saw things were going wrong."
"If your heart is dirty, everything you see will appear dirty."
"Please, the money she donated was her personal income, not the program's. Can you please stop criticizing her?"
Just after Jiang Yue posted this Weibo, the boy group's studio and Ning Yao's personal studio followed suit with similar posts.
They all stated that they would donate all of their personal proceeds from the live stream to disadvantaged groups in need.
Now, the production team is the one being forced into this situation.
If they don't donate, it makes them seem really heartless; if they do donate, what's the point of this paid live stream?
The station's leaders never expected Jiang Yue to pull this stunt, completely disrupting their plans and leaving them in an awkward position.
The official Weibo account of Hunan TV was flooded with messages from viewers.
They're being morally blackmailed now!
Left with no other option, a few minutes later, Hunan TV's official Weibo account also announced that it would donate all of its revenue, issuing this statement that was so painful that I didn't want to watch it again.
No wonder Jiang Yue was so easy to coax this time!
It turns out they already had a backup plan.
Jiang Yue's move was brilliant, and the audience couldn't argue with her anymore. However, she was still criticized for acting and pretending to be a good person.
In the midst of the chaos, someone dug up Jiang Yue's previous donation records.
The fan club president immediately launched an attack: "Those who say it was a last-minute performance, take a good look at these stacks of receipts to see if they're fake. Yueyue has been doing this for a long time; we won't mention it unless she says so."
But that's no excuse for your outrageous behavior.
Even if I bought ten thousand smear articles from marketing accounts, it wouldn't erase my affection for her.
A few words, spoken with resounding force.
It felt as if it had struck everyone's heart.
"But it really is the marketing accounts that are stirring up trouble."
"Once you become famous, you become a thorn in other people's side."
"Did you forget that Ye Lan's agent liked the post? It's obviously something they did secretly."
"Sigh, Jiang Yue is so silly. These days, you should talk about the good deeds you do."
Regardless, we've won this game against all odds.
The fans were sobbing uncontrollably, feeling both moved and overwhelmed, realizing they hadn't loved the wrong person from beginning to end.
The live stream started as scheduled at 8 PM.
It immediately rose to the top spot on the platform's real-time rankings after the broadcast started.
The director used hidden cameras; there were many camera angles, so the guests couldn't possibly notice them.
Jiang Yue was in her familiar pose, lying on the sofa like a salted fish, as if she were distributing snacks to others.
"I can't give you the cucumber-flavored potato chips; this is my favorite flavor."
"Hazelnut chocolate is also not allowed, even though I really like it."
"And coconut candy, I love that too."
Jiang Yue's snack bag was an adorable moon-shaped bag, seemingly filled with an endless supply of snacks. Zhou Zhengchu brought it along when he visited.
It was filled to the brim with his mother's favorite snacks.
Jiang Yue was naturally reluctant to share it with others.
Fortunately, neither Captain Lu nor Ning Yao are big fans of snacks, and in order to maintain their figures, they usually only eat boiled vegetables.
Only Jiang Yue was unrestrained, eating whatever she wanted.
They were unaware that the live stream had already started, and as soon as it began, Zhou Ji, using his real name, gifted hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of virtual gifts in the live stream room.
The men in the office seem tireless and in a very good mood.
Assistant Shen noticed the faint smile at the corner of the man's eyes, and then saw him casually tapping on his phone screen. She handed him the phone just before the meeting started, letting him continue.
Assistant Shen: "..."
There was also a viewer in the live stream whose username was only English letters – qZ.
They're also giving away airplanes and sports cars like crazy.
The screen is filled with money; anyone who sees it will be stunned.
They certainly knew who Zhou Ji was, but who was this suddenly appearing letter ID?
My ex-husband is showering me with gifts, and now there's even some unknown bigwig involved?
Was Jiang Yue keeping a low profile for the past few months by learning how to use witchcraft? Everyone is completely captivated by her, even her fans!
There are always some talented people on the internet, perhaps from the same industry, who may not know much, but they know a little bit.
Isn't this abbreviation Qin Qin's brother?
However, his behavior was simply not right. The reason was simple: Qin Zhao was a very low-key, mature, and steady thirty-year-old man. It was highly unlikely that he would do something that would attract attention.
qZ's account is the same as Zhou Ji's.
Apart from the name, everything else is blank.
There is no personal profile, nor any other information.
"I think I know who this big spender is. It's both reasonable and unexpected."
"Put your ears up and tell us!"
"Oh, I can't say, but it's a name that everyone often hears in the news."
"If you eat alone, you'll get diarrhea!"
"I guessed it was a bit far-fetched, but not that far-fetched."
"I know now, the brother of Jiang Yue's wealthy best friend whose initials are all his is actually him!"
"Mom, it seems Qin Qin and Jiang Yue have a good relationship. Even her brother is willing to come and support his sister's friend."
"Who said it's good? It's just so-so."
"You know that now?"
"Why does it feel like a lot of insiders are secretly watching the live stream? Could it be a group from within the industry?"
The qZ account didn't say much either, just sent gifts without commenting.
The live stream lasted only an hour. As it drew to a close, the boys in the group, who were still in college, couldn't help but shed tears of reluctance.
Ning Yao also cried.
Jiang Yue was filled with mixed feelings, but it didn't mean they couldn't meet again in the future.
The variety show has come to a successful end.
The number of paying viewers for the live stream exceeded one million, and the cumulative revenue surpassed a staggering 100 million yuan.
The real money spent on the show is proof that it's genuinely popular, not just a fabricated hype.
After it was over, Jiang Yue learned that rumors about her sisterly relationship with Qin Qin had started circulating online again, with people analyzing the qZ account in great detail and being 100% certain that it was Qin Qin's brother.
It's probably because Qin Zhao isn't a very important character in the original story.
Therefore, the system never specifically told her about the Qin family's storyline.
Jiang Yue asked curiously, "Why did Qin Zhao spend money on me? Wasn't it mentioned in the original story? Is he secretly in love with me, or is he openly in love with me?"
She muttered to herself, "I feel like he's one of those ardent suitors of mine."
system:【……】
After a moment of silence, the system replied truthfully: "Baby, I'm not entirely sure either. Aside from Qin Qin, none of the other members of the Qin family in the book have any contact with you."
The only description is also very brief—
At her birthday party, she wore an exquisite diamond tiara and was arm in arm with a man in a suit. She said to the disheveled Jiang Yue who had come to borrow money, "This is my brother."
The Qin family's little princess, who was the center of attention at the banquet, smiled at the woman in front of her again: "Yueyue, I'm sorry, let's talk about it later, okay?"
The man glanced at her casually, then quickly looked away, giving a slight nod as a greeting.
