Chapter 428 Jones



While the Qin siblings' affair was making headlines, another Weibo post soared to the top of the trending list at a similar speed.

[Jiang Ruoyu returns to China, making her debut in a commercial esports competition]

WTF?

A renowned actress, instead of participating in numerous variety shows and commercial performances, went to participate in some ridiculous e-sports competition.

Are you sure there's no mistake?

Or have today's award-winning actors and actresses mutated and are trying to come up with something new?

Amidst a chorus of doubts, Jiang Ruoyu explained the reason: "My little nephew has grown up and has his own dreams. As his aunt, I'm here to support him. For all you kids interested in esports, see you in the cloud livestream at 3 PM today! [Thumbs up][Thumbs up]"

Oh, so you were standing in the corner for your nephew.

I understand.

Fans left numerous comments.

[I'm curious about Actress Jiang's little nephew. Everyone says he looks like his aunt. I wonder if he inherited her stunning beauty!]

[Pfft, I just finished hearing about actor Qin doting on his sister, and now I'm hearing about actress Jiang doting on her nephew. Being a second-generation star these days is really great!]

[Can this even be compared? My actress stands tall and proud, and my nephew clearly enjoys the perks of being a celebrity's child. Unlike some stunningly beautiful girls who claim they're not interested in the entertainment industry but are constantly trending on social media, hypocritical and ungrateful. Even Qin Yingdi can't save me from blocking that girl!]

[My sister is always trending, so if you don't like it, don't follow her. What's the point of following her and then criticizing her? PS: Whether you block someone or not has nothing to do with my sister, so she doesn't need to show off her presence.]

[Wait, isn't this a post where Actress Jiang is advertising for her nephew? How did it get dragged into Qin Sheng again? The anti-fans are really powerful, they're everywhere!]

My little sister is a goddess, don't argue with me, if you do, you're right [smile]

Regardless of right or wrong, if we only consider looks, Qin Sheng is truly amazing.

[Just popping in to say hi, I'm totally shipping this brother-sister CP!]

[She's back! This is a post from my beloved Jiang Jie. All you fans, take this and go cool off somewhere! Here's a picture of my Jiang Jie exuding confidence to set the tone. PS: Looking forward to seeing her as Wen Haoyue~]

[Leng Shanhe, Wen Haoyue, [thinking][thinking][thinking], Han Yan is Leng Shanhe's long-lost younger sister, so she also has the surname Leng, right? Anyway, I'm looking forward to Miss Qin Sheng's Leng Han Yan~]

[...]

Jiang Ruoyu casually scrolled through the Weibo comment section, her expression slightly darkening as she watched the thread repeatedly veer off-topic. However, a faint smile appeared on her face the next moment.

That's fine.

The higher Qin Sheng's popularity is now, the higher it will be when things go wrong.

The higher the chance that she will force out Fu Jingheng behind her.

Once she manages to force Fu Jingheng out, she'll have plenty of ways to see Fu Jingyuan...

However, all of this will have to wait until after we join the production team.

Jiang Ruoyu thought about it for a moment, put the matter aside, and casually picked up the list she had received not long ago.

He glanced at them, then turned to look at his nephew who was playing games on the sofa next to him: "Haoming, is this Jones the one you used to keep mentioning?"

Jiang Haoming paused for a moment, then continued what he was doing, saying casually, "It's him."

Jiang Ruoyu lowered her brows slightly: "Are you confident you can win?"

"Your dad spent nearly 40 million on this match, and even asked me to help you with your positioning. If you win, that's fine, but if you lose..."

Not only did the Jiang family lose face, but she also lost face.

Jiang Ruoyu felt increasingly uneasy as she thought about it. After a moment's thought, she said, "How about we listen to your dad and give them more money so they can make a few mistakes..."

With a sharp "snap," Jiang Ruoyu's words came to an abrupt end.

Jiang Haoming slammed his phone face down on the table, his face full of annoyance: "Auntie, what do you mean by this?"

Jiang Haoming stood up from the sofa, looked down at Jiang Ruoyu, and said, "I said I would defeat Jones, defeat him fair and square."

"Don't try to use your entertainment industry tactics on me, I won't lose."

"Even if I lose, it's my own business, and it has nothing to do with you or the Jiang family."

How could it be unrelated?

Everyone knows that Jiang Haoming is the only son of the Jiang family. If he loses face, then the Jiang family loses face as well.

Although it was just a game, Jiang Haoming initiated it and put it under public scrutiny. If he lost, criticism would be inevitable.

Jiang Ruoyu frowned, but didn't lash out. Instead, she softened her voice and said, "Haoming, that's not what I meant. I was just worried about what might happen..."

“There’s no such thing as ‘what if’.” Jiang Haoming smiled and said, “My aunt probably doesn’t know yet, but just yesterday, the original bot lane duo from the TOP team contacted me. They will be playing with me in this afternoon’s match.”

It's said that Wan Feng personally stepped in to support Jones on TOP's side.

That's not all. The key point is that Wan Feng would rather give a substitute who had just joined the team a chance than choose Tian Gang and Lao Yao.

Jones's last-minute appearance had already angered them, and now this incident only intensified their discontent. So, after discussing it, they went directly to Jiang Haoming.

Although in terms of strength, the two may not be able to compare with Potian or Tanlang on the other side, the fact that their own teammate defected at the last minute is enough to deal a huge psychological blow to TOP.

In addition, Jiang Haoming has also poached several top players from other teams, and they have been secretly training for several months. He himself is one of the best among them.

Therefore, he is destined to win this match.

A fierce glint flashed in Jiang Haoming's eyes. He grabbed his phone, nodded to Jiang Ruoyu, and walked out: "While there's still time, let's train for a while longer. Oh, and..."

Jiang Haoming paused, as if remembering something: "My little cousin has been back for about a week now, does Aunt have any plans?"

Upon hearing Jiang Xiaoyu's name, Jiang Ruoyu temporarily put the competition aside and said indifferently, "Don't worry, she won't be here for more than a few days. If you don't want to see her, go out and have some fun for a few days after the competition ends, and come home after she leaves."

Jiang Haoming nodded casually, then walked out the door without stopping.

Jiang Ruoyu leaned back in her office chair, her fingertips tapping the desk, feeling inexplicably irritated.

I feel like nothing has gone smoothly since I came back this time.

Fu Jingyuan, Qin Sheng, Jiang Xiaoyu, Qin Zhihuai...

Nothing went exactly as she had predicted.

What's going on?

Li Ying observed Jiang Ruoyu's expression from the side, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward and said, "Sister Ruoyu is worried about the young master's competition. If you are not at ease, then don't go this afternoon. Just find an excuse to cancel."

Jiang Ruoyu came to her senses and shook her head: "Forget it, Jones is his knot in his heart. Only by defeating him in front of everyone can he untie this knot in his heart."

"I've been back for several months now, so I'm taking this opportunity to show my face and promote Shanhe Haoyue."

As she spoke, she pressed her temples and then stood up: "It's almost time, let the stylist come over."

Li Ying said nothing more and quickly gave the orders.
