Chapter 76 Reality (3)
Congratulations to player Lin Chujiu for achieving A-level completion!
The dungeon run "Eight-Carried Sedan Chair" is over!
The total reward for this instance is 9,366,958.97 yuan.
A-level completion reward: The protection of the sisters (In times of danger, you can summon your all-powerful sisters to fight for you for three minutes).
The player has advanced one level; current level: three stars.
This time, Lin Chujiu once again chose to be transported to the real world; she was still not quite ready to step into the horror world.
The competition between the two wealthy men allowed her to easily pay off her mother's remaining medical expenses.
Lin Chujiu felt incredibly relaxed, as if all the burdens of the past years had been lifted at this moment.
She smiled happily, her face finally showing the hope and expectation that young people have for life.
That smile didn't disappear until she saw it trending on her phone.
At that time, Lin Chujiu happily put on a mask and went out to eat hot pot, but her expression changed drastically when she saw the trending topic.
[#The Rising Star of the Horror Livestreaming Room is Actually Her#]
[#A certain actress rose to fame through her body#]
[#A certain young actress with a scary personality makes a big fuss over nothing#]
Lin Chujiu clicked on it and saw that it was full of revelations about her.
Her identity has been thoroughly exposed by netizens, along with various photoshopped unflattering pictures from her two years in the entertainment industry and "evidence" provided by her former company, making her current situation extremely awkward.
Those maliciously taken photos of her drinking with several CEOs have firmly nailed her to the pillar of shame, leaving her no chance to recover.
The deeper Lin Chujiu rolled, the more rapid her breathing became.
More and more revelations are emerging below.
They even dug up photos of her mother when she was hospitalized.
When she saw yet another trending topic appear on the list, Lin Chujiu completely broke down.
[#A shocking young actress is unfilial to her mother, earning a huge sum of money but abandoning her#]
The comments below, whether from online trolls or ordinary netizens, are all accusatory.
[My God, a graduate from a top-tier university majoring in electrical engineering went straight into the entertainment industry, completely ignoring his seriously ill mother!]
The more you dig, the more you find out. Apparently, she couldn't make it in the entertainment industry, so she's pretending to be innocent and trying to make money in these scary live streams.
[Does that bitch Lin have no shame? She pretends to be so innocent, but behind the scenes she's been sleeping with older men to climb the social ladder. How disgusting!]
It's too dirty; it's not presentable.
Lin Chujiu stood at the noisy entrance of the hot pot restaurant, her phone burning hot in her hand.
The surrounding noise and aroma of food did not make her feel warm; on the contrary, she felt suffocated and only felt the pain of blood rushing to her head.
Those photos, carefully chosen from different angles, maliciously spliced, or even AI-generated, those distorted "evidence" are like poisoned needles, piercing her heart one by one.
She was in so much pain she couldn't breathe.
Especially when seeing photos of her mother lying in a hospital bed, her face haggard yet still bearing a gentle smile, being exposed and misinterpreted, even becoming "ironclad evidence" to attack her for being "unfilial"...
"Bang--"
Her phone slipped from her fingers.
Lin Chujiu staggered back a step, her back hitting the cold glass.
She didn't feel wronged at all. She had already felt wronged long enough by being blacklisted for refusing to drink with customers. Now, she just felt angry.
And... an overwhelming sense of powerlessness that almost drowned her.
She knew who was behind it. Xu Sisi.
This was a revenge plot she and her company had planned.
Even before she had plastic surgery to look like her, Xu Sisi harbored ill intentions towards her and would cause her trouble every now and then.
Lin Chujiu knew that she was jealous of her, but she always remained indifferent and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
However, this indifference did not make Xu Sisi feel ashamed; on the contrary, it fueled Xu Sisi's arrogance, allowing her to climb to the top by stepping on her.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she forced them back.
Lin Chujiu broke down. She suddenly squatted down, picked up her phone from the ground, and pressed her fingers so hard they turned white.
But, Jiu Jiu, just bear with it a little longer, it's not time to break down yet.
If we're going to fight, we must wipe them all out.
Thinking of this, Lin Chujiu resolutely stood up, pulled up her mask, revealing only a pair of calm eyes.
That look in her eyes was completely different from her sweet and gentle demeanor in her usual live streams.
Cold, yet resolute, with a ruthless determination to go all in.
Instead of returning to the rented apartment that might have been staked out by reporters, she turned around and headed straight for a quiet internet cafe nearby.
The internet is flooded with news, and just browsing it can be overwhelming.
But... she is no longer the clueless and helpless artist she was two years ago when the company smeared her.
The life-or-death struggles in the horror world taught her that in desperate situations, only calmness can offer a glimmer of hope.
She closed her eyes, and timelines flashed rapidly through her mind.
The contract trap of her former company, the truth behind those "drinking parties" back then, the source of her mother's medical expenses... and Xu Sisi's face, which was extremely similar to hers but distorted.
When Lin Chujiu opened her eyes again, all that remained in them was a resolute determination.
The company wants to drown her in real-world sewage?
So she'll...stir things up even more first, and see what sinks to the bottom in the end—
Who could it be?!
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Chujiu casually told a food delivery guy about her whereabouts, and when she returned to her rented apartment, there was indeed no one there.
Lin Chujiu took a deep breath, and the familiar white light shot into the sky once again.
This time, Lin Chujiu went in not only calm, but also with a do-or-die determination.
When I opened my eyes again, I was in a pristine white studio.
She was dressed normally, with a white coat over her clothes and a name tag on her chest, but it wasn't the kind of name a doctor would wear.
Senior Engineer: Lin Chujiu
Grade: A
Lin Chujiu was somewhat surprised.
I'm being treated like a beast of burden.
She looked around at the densely packed machines and the numerous reagents in the cabinets not far away—clearly an engineering laboratory.
Look, there are a few oxen and horses working nearby.
At the same time, her live stream was flooded with viewers.
Among them were quite a few who came to hurl insults at her.
[I can't believe she actually dared to do a live stream!]
Can the world of horror be survived without live streaming?
[That shameless bitch Lin, go to hell!]
Yes, such a despicable person doesn't deserve to live.
[They're spouting nonsense without even investigating the matter properly; they're just a bunch of keyboard warriors who only know how to talk trash online.]
Ha, you're so protective of her, but you've slept with her.
[The streamer, whose brain matter turned yellowish-brown, was kicked out of the livestream by the administrator, Dajiba.]
Lin Chujiu didn't start a live stream, knowing that a lot of bad people must have flooded into her live stream, and the environment in the live stream room must be bad now.
Lin Chujiu only hoped that the room administrators Hanyu and Crazy Dajiba would keep their tempers down and not confront them directly. If they were bullied, she would feel sorry for them, since they were his fans.
And don't leave, my loyal fans whom I've just built up.
Lin Chujiu sighed.
