Qiao Zhen glared at Qin Zhao and said, "Don't be a coward!" Then she raised her hand first.
The host immediately noticed her slightly curled hand and walked over to her. "Would you mind revealing which one you are?"
"Your Majesty."
"Is this a title given to you or your nickname?"
"title."
"Huh? The person next to you also raised their hand, who is he...?" The host hesitated before handing the microphone to Qin Zhao.
Qiao Zhen immediately leaned over and replied, "Brother Daokou."
Are you friends with Brother Daokou?
"..." Qiao Zhen didn't know how to answer.
Qin Zhao reached out and took the microphone: "I am her husband, and when I go online, I am protecting my wife. I don't think I did anything wrong."
The host took back the microphone and moved closer to Du Ke and the female lead, "And you two are...?"
Du Ke: "Wood grinding."
Female lead: "Seeing flowers through the fog."
Du Ke added, "Just now, Dao Kou said he was protecting his wife, but I don't think we've ever bullied her."
The humiliation has arrived!
Qiao Zhen quickly raised her hand to request another microphone, so the male and female leads shared one microphone, and Qin Zhao and Qiao Zhen shared another microphone.
Du Ke smiled deeply and said, "Besides, I think it's not good to judge a book by its cover. It's not good for a junior to be so vindictive."
Qiao Zhen was unconvinced. She immediately picked up the microphone and retorted, "Senior, don't always make insinuations. You're making a big deal out of a small thing. Would he kill you in real life? Senior said he didn't bully me, and I don't think I was bullied either. Besides, it was just slander. It happened several years ago. Who would hold a grudge for several years?"
"Slander? Junior, you can't just say things like that." Du Ke narrowed his eyes dangerously, locking onto Qiao Zhen's direction in the crowd.
Qin Zhao frowned slightly. He tried to take the microphone but Qiao Zhen slapped it back with her hand.
"Since you don't remember, then I'll just have to remind you. My previous nickname was 'Your Most Respected Mother.' Several years ago, about five or six years ago, the girl next to you, 'Misty Flower,' accused me of stealing rewards from the Black Dragon dungeon. Some veteran players should know that I didn't care at the time. But recently, that girl next to you has used what happened back then as a reason for the game being unfair, and I can't accept that."
As soon as Qiao Zhen finished speaking, Li Si raised his hand and asked, "Isn't your nickname 'Pure Female Student'?"
Qiao Zhen blushed and lowered her head, "Who doesn't have a quirky sense of humor when changing their name?"
Then someone connected the events from a few years ago with the events of a few days ago. The cute girl who had just said the game was quite fair raised her hand and said weakly, "I'm a new player. It seems that the Empress had an argument with me and Wulikanhua before. I thought Wulikanhua had stolen my rewards, so I questioned her in the Lion's Roar channel. She said that's how games are, and that she had experienced it too."
Li Si also recalled something that happened a few years ago. "About six or seven years ago, there was a master and apprentice. The master was called Nianmu Chengtu, and the apprentice was called Wuli Kanhua. There was indeed the incident that the Empress mentioned. The Empress was AFK in the Dark Abyss at the time. As a result, Wuli Kanhua caused a ruckus in the Lion's Roar because she had been killed in the past. Later, she even took her master Nianmu Chengtu with her. Later, the two of them were killed by Daokou and had to quit the game."
A voluptuous woman also raised her hand to beckon the microphone, "I am Queen Big Meow. This did happen back then, but I never expected that the two things would be connected."
Du Ke's eyes flickered. He looked at Qiao Zhen's face, which was even more refined than when she was a child, and then thought about how Qiao Zhen was no longer as innocent as she was back then. He finally couldn't suppress the primal force within him and looked at Qiao Zhen as if she were an enemy. "Then wasn't Dao Kou going too far?! He actually sabotaged Wu Wu's work in private!"
Qiao Zhen looked at Qin Zhao with surprise and suspicion, only to see that his expression was somewhat unpleasant. She immediately stopped holding back and said, "I thought my husband had been too lenient. What could have happened three or four years ago that would have made Miss Hua do such a despicable thing? To ruin my reputation on the forum, to spread rumors and manipulate public opinion to smear me. Is it because you've been living too comfortably that you think I'm stupid?"
Hua Jianwu, oh, that is, the female protagonist of this world, her hands were trembling slightly. But the incident was so serious back then, and she couldn't escape it either, so she couldn't help but let the darkness in her heart smear Qiao Zhen with that initial incident. "Please provide evidence before you speak, otherwise this is slander."
Qiao Zhen gave a wicked smile, her eyebrows raised in a defiant manner. "Miss Hua, perhaps you should go back to the police station to check your personal file. And senior, oh no, I mean Du Ke, it's been years, but your judgment of people is still as shallow as ever. And let me give you one last piece of advice: you'd better be more careful!"
"I'm sorry everyone, I've made a mess of things here, but it's time for my rehabilitation, so please allow me to leave early." Qiao Zhen gently tugged at Qin Zhao's sleeve.
Qin Zhao stood up, picked up Qiao Zhen, and placed her in the wheelchair. "Farewell."
Then he pushed Qiao Zhen away, and Ling Wei, perhaps finding it boring, also left.
The host was quite embarrassed, but fortunately, his professionalism was excellent. Instead of causing an awkward silence, he used the incident to bring the anniversary celebration to a climax.
Sitting in her wheelchair, Qiao Zhen felt conflicted. If she hadn't been the one to break things off today, or if the original owner of this body had been here, wouldn't Qin Zhao have remained silent and let others misunderstand or humiliate him? Just thinking about that scene made Qiao Zhen feel extremely uncomfortable.
How could her servants allow others to bully them?!
