Chapter 71 Public Opinion Reversal
Shen Yixiao took her phone away, and he stopped telling her to do anything. Cen Wan was a little bored, so she found a book on the bookshelf to read.
What surprised her was that Shen Yixiao also had "Illustrated History of Chinese Painting" and various books on appreciating ancient famous paintings.
She picked up a book at random, leaned on a pillow, and sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to read.
Shen Yixiao stayed in the study to deal with things, and Cen Wan didn't bother him. If he said he could solve it, he would definitely solve it.
Before she knew anything, the internet was already in an uproar.
Less than three hours after the statement on the paint substitution incident was issued, the official website of Xingchen Media issued a notice that shocked the entire network.
"After investigation, it was confirmed that Jiang Yunlan, an artist under Xingchen Media, had most of her previous paintings ghostwritten by ghostwriters. This is a violation of ethics and has deceived fans and netizens. Effective immediately, all cooperation and relations with Ms. Jiang Yunlan will be terminated."
Less than half an hour after this message was sent out, it became a hot topic.
[Oh shit! Ghostwriting? Is that genius girl just marketing?]
"How shameless! I used to think of her as my idol, yet she did something like this."
Rich people just know how to have fun. Are all her academic qualifications and awards fake?
The public opinion online began to turn to the other side, and the target of criticism and abuse became Jiang Yunlan.
However, her fans are still stubborn.
Did our Yunlan offend some powerful person? First, the paint was replaced, and then they were accused of ghostwriting. Whose cake did they touch?
[Where's the evidence? The official media just made a statement like that and ruined Lanlan's years of hard work. I don't believe it, just making random statements without any evidence!]
[Those who understand will understand. It can't be related to that bitch, right? What rich man has he hooked up with again?]
What’s dramatic is that it was only after public opinion had fermented for half a day that Xingchen released the definitive evidence.
From Jiang Yunlan's grades in school, the evaluations from teachers and classmates, to the transfer records and transactions with other painters, the details were so detailed that it took the onlookers half an hour to read through them.
[I asked for a hammer and got it. Are there still fans jumping around? Hahahaha]
[Fuck! Miss Qianjin is so rich. Ghostwriting is so profitable. If I had known this, I would have done this!]
[Hasn't Jiang Yunlan always been marketing the image of a wealthy daughter and a talented painter? It's hilarious, these talented women's works are all ghostwritten.]
As soon as these two statements were released, Jiang Yunlan's image plummeted from heaven to earth. She became the object of everyone's ridicule and sarcasm. Her partners terminated their contracts with her one after another, and the Internet was full of scolding her.
In the Jiang family villa, Jiang Yunlan locked himself in the room and smashed things frantically.
"Why? How could Shen Yixiao do this to me? I clearly pushed the paint issue to Sister Ni."
"It's ruined! My life and career are all ruined! It's all because of that damn bitch Cen Wan. Why doesn't she just die?"
Mother Jiang heard the crackling sound in the house and banged on the door anxiously: "Yunlan, calm down, don't hurt yourself!"
"How can I face people anymore? I won't live any longer!"
Hearing Jiang Yunlan's cry, Jiang's mother was extremely anxious: "There will be a way. Mom and Dad will help you. Can you open the door first?"
"What can you do? I've lost everything I had."
She couldn't stand the thought of her painstakingly built image collapsing, her fanatical fans gone, her glory and attention gone, and being constantly criticized in the future. She couldn't stand it for a moment!
It must be fake, none of this is true!
Jiang Yunlan's face was almost distorted. He clicked on Weibo and muttered to himself: "It's all fake, fake..."
"Ah--" She screamed and smashed her phone against the window after seeing the condemnation and abuse directed at her on Weibo. What had gone wrong? It should have been Cen Wan who was ruined, why was it her?
"Lanlan, open the door." Jiang's mother heard the movement in the house, her heart in her throat, crying, "I'll ask your father to ask Mr. Shen, they have a good relationship, ask Xingchen to withdraw the notice, after a while when things calm down, everyone will forget about it."
"You are still the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, nothing will change!"
The room gradually became quiet: "Don't lie to me!"
"Of course not, I'll call your dad right away..."
…
On the other side, at five o'clock, Shen Yixiao came out of the study.
As he walked into the living room, the doorbell rang and Cen Wan turned around to look.
Shen Yixiao walked to the door, opened it, picked up the freshly prepared dishes and walked to the dining table: "Come and eat."
"Oh." Cen Wan stood up. Her legs were numb from sitting for too long.
At the dining table, Shen Yixiao was opening the delivery boxes one by one. Cen Wan went to the kitchen to wash her hands and came over to help.
After Shen Yixiao unpacked and laid out the tableware, he handed her the phone: "Your phone has been ringing just now."
Cen Wan took it, untied it and saw that Jiang Yuan had called her several times and her WeChat seemed to be bombarded with dozens of messages.
[Wan, why are there still people cursing you on Weibo? Stop reading, they're just some brainless fans.]
I stood up to a bunch of idiots for half an hour, scolding them like crazy and they had no chance to fight back. Come on, praise me (tsundere face)
[Why didn't you reply to the message? Did Mr. Shen kidnap you? ]
Two hours later:
[Baby, have you read Weibo? Wow, it's exploding!]
[I told you there was something wrong with Jiang Yunlan. Sure enough, I have sharp eyes.]
[Boss Chen is truly awesome. Every move is a sure kill. I wonder how her fans can still jump around.]
Two hours later:
"Are you okay, Wan? If you don't show up again, I'll call the police."
"Yuanyuan patted me"
Cen Wan quickly replied to her message: [I'm fine, Yuanyuan. I didn't check my phone this afternoon.]
As soon as the message was sent, Jiang Yuan called.
“My ancestor, you finally answered the phone! If you don’t answer the phone, I will suspect that Mr. Shen sold you out!”
Jiang Yuan's voice did not stop at all, and Cen Wan subconsciously looked at Shen Yixiao.
The latter raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her with a half-smile on his face.
Cen Wan covered the receiver of her phone: "I'll take a call first."
Shen Yixiao nodded his chin towards the stool: "Sit here, the food will get cold soon."
Cen Wan pursed her lips, sat down, and explained a few words to Jiang Yuan.
"I haven't checked my phone all afternoon. I'm sorry to have made you worried."
"You didn't check your phone? Then check it now, right now, right now!"
Jiang Yuan's tone was excited. Cen Wan clicked on Weibo with a suspicious look on her face. After figuring out the whole story, her eyes were full of surprise.
It turned out that her feeling was correct, those paintings were indeed not from the same person.
So, this is what Shen Yixiao was busy with in the afternoon?
She raised her eyes and looked across at him. Shen Yixiao looked normal. He raised his hand and put a piece of meat into her bowl. "Why are you looking at me? Eat."
The deep voice accurately reached Jiang Yuan's ears on the other end of the phone. She was shocked. Shen Yixiao was right next to her?
"You guys are eating, haha, then eat well, eat seriously and eat as much as you can!"
After saying that, he quickly hung up the phone.
Cen Wan opened her lips slightly, but before she could utter a word, she looked at the hung up call, remained silent for two seconds, and put away her phone.
Cen Wan: "Did you let Miss Jiang go?"
Shen Yixiao raised his eyelids and looked at her: "You care about her a lot?"
"No," Cen Wan looked at him and considered her words, "I thought you would consider her."
Shen Yixiao put down his chopsticks, his eyes darkening slightly: "Why should I care about her?"
