A few days later–

It had been three days since the final debut night of "Starlight". To everyone's surprise, Jian Xingsui's popularity on Weibo had not dissipated. The problem of voting manipulation was still ongoing, as many people felt they were scammed out of their money. Unfortunately, Anran's reputation had been dragged through the mud thanks to his fans' poor behavior. Even until now, there's still many discussions surrounding his flaws.

[Anran's family is filthy rich, right? It's clear he had the capital to get through the back door, if you catch my drift.]

[He got the same number of bought votes as Suisui, but he came third.]

[Well, his older brother was one of the special guests. Do you need to doubt that there's nepotism at play here?]

[Did he robbed someone else's place then?]

[Ah, I thought he was very cute before, but I didn't expect him to be such a rotten person.]

Originally, Anran had a good impression in the eyes of the public, but because of his fans' rude behavior that night, his good impression vanished within seconds. The public perception of him had hit rock bottom.

In Jian family's mansion–

"Bang!"

There was a loud noise in the living room, which showed how furious the man was.

Jian Zhi was very angry when he saw the netizen's evaluation of his baby brother Anran. He seethed, "How dare they slander you so easily? They even said you are flaunting your capital and playing nepotism! Netizens these days are getting more irrational."

Anran sat beside him with puffy red eyes. It was obvious that he had suffered a great grievance.

Li-jie, Anran's manager, sat across from both of them, "Ranran, I didn't expect that the situation would become this bad. I suspect that someone is actually out to get you. It must be Jian Xingsui! He must've instigated his fans behind the scenes to harm you on purpose."

Anran glanced at Jian Zhi quietly, and said softly, "That's impossible, Li-jie. I know Suisui, he... he is quite nice, he couldn't be the one behind all of this. This matter is also my fault, blame me for not restraining my fans well. Don't blame Xingsui, even if he did it, it's nothing. I think maybe Suisui is still blaming me. Because if it wasn't me, it would be impossible for him to leave the Jian family's house..."

Jian Zhi felt a little distressed when he heard his little brother's words.

"Ranran, how could this be your fault?" Jian Zhi has always liked his excellent and sensible younger brother, "You are my own younger brother, it's only natural for you to come home here. I think Li-jie is right, maybe Jian Xingsui did some tricks behind our backs. Didn't he get close to that Shen Xingchen? When I was looking for him before, he said that he didn't care about money. I guess it was because he got a new thigh to hug1hugging (thick/golden) thigh = depends on a stronger person., so he now dares to be this audacious."

Anran's mind was very flexible, and he grasped this line very efficiently. He continued to pretend to be weak to gain pity, "Second brother, what should I do now then?"

Jian Zhi crossed his legs and said, "Don't worry, the public opinion is a fickle thing. We can ride this one out very soon. Jian Xingsui's company got that one million, so now they have to give us an explanation. I believe they will hide him in the future. When he is cornered with no way out, he'll grovel in front of me to beg for forgiveness."
