Hearing Zhao Yuexiu’s words, Chi Mingkun, who was in the midst of switching to editing content on Weibo’s backend, was taken aback.
He raised his eyes in bewilderment, "Mom, it’s obvious that Sister was wronged—are we not supposed to issue a statement to clear her name?"
Zhao Yuexiu glared at Chi Mingkun, "Can this kind of thing even be clarified? Your career has just picked up this year. If you don’t quickly distance yourself from her, are you waiting to be dragged down with her?"
Chi Mingkun pressed his lips together and didn’t speak, simply continuing to edit content in silence.
"Wife, can you please talk some sense into Ming Kun? Don’t let him do anything foolish!" Zhao Yuexiu could only turn to Chi Changjing for help.
Chi Changjing also finished reading the trending topics on Weibo and, after a long silence, he sighed slowly, "Let’s just see how things play out..."
In the midst of the conversation, Chi Mingkun had already issued a statement from the official account, a very clear and detailed explanation that he was unaware of Lucine’s team live streaming the event and that he had never discussed such matters with Chi Gui. The reason Chi Gui returned to Cloud Village was simply because she was on holiday and wanted to stay at her grandmother’s house for a few days.
Once his announcement went out, fans quickly expressed their support, but inevitably, Lucine’s fans were too many and too strong. Soon enough, the comments section under the announcement was overrun with mockery.
There were marketing accounts that immediately wrote "in-depth" analysis of Chi Mingkun’s statement:
"Don’t be fooled by his seemingly sincere tone! From beginning to end, this was a reverse hype planned by him and his sister! After all, Lucine, as an internationally famous race car driver, would have difficulty riding on the coattails of a livestream for popularity, and it would not end well.
They simply let the seemingly uninvolved sister ’accidentally’ appear on Lucine’s live-stream camera, then act as victims once the public outcry began, claiming it was all a misunderstanding to garner widespread sympathy from netizens, and use this opportunity to gain fame!
Of course, if the public didn’t react as they expected, even better. Next step, they would bring their own team, ’coincidentally’ appear on Miss Lucine’s live broadcast... I can’t help but applaud the meticulous planning of ’Yao Ming’! No matter what, they planned to exploit the online audience for a big profit!"
The marketing account’s argument seemed logical and quickly set off another round of trending searches.
Even more people flooded the comments under "Yao Ming’s" official Weibo to hurl abuse.
There were fans defending Chi Mingkun, but unfortunately, they were too few and hence quickly overwhelmed.
Chi Mingkun was so angry he almost smashed his phone!
Fuck!
