Mu Sheng received details of her earnings for the day on her phone shortly after she turned off the computer.
Mu Sheng was not expecting much, so she was surprised to see she had received a total of $20,500 in gifts. After deducting the live telecast platform’s 50% cut, she was left with slightly over $10,000.
In just two hours, Mu Sheng had earned more money than all the money she had combined. She looked happy with the result.
After taking a bath, Mu Sheng went to sleep.
People kept talking about Mu Sheng online and posts demanding her to leave the entertainment industry remained the hottest topics.
Random people who were unaware of the details sensed a catfight brewing in the entertainment industry. They felt it was unfair for a young woman like Mu Sheng to get ostracized so badly.
However, everyone nodded in agreement about casting her out of the entertainment industry when they saw footage of her taking drugs. She was giving the industry a bad name.
Talent Scout Entertainment naturally announced the disbandment of Sunny following Mu Sheng’s drug scandal. Also, Talent Scout Entertainment’s official announcement caused a furor among the fans.
@Talent Scout Entertainment: [Four lovely young women came together to form a band thanks to your support two years ago. We appreciate your loyalty. The band has to disband for the time being owing to an unexpected incident. Even though Sunny will cease to exist, our spirit will live on forever. Farewell.]
[My favorite band got disbanded. Would they get disbanded if it weren’t for Mu Sheng? She ruined everything.]
[Oh no! After we spent day and night voting for them, they are getting disbanded. I am so devastated. Why can’t they just kick Mu Sheng out of the band? Can the three other girls continue staying in Sunny?]
[As a bystander, I have a feeling the talent agency already planned on disbandment. It is just taking the chance to put the blame on Mu Sheng.]
However, only a minority of people were suspicious while the rest of the netizens were filled with moral indignation when their favorite band was disbanded.
Yang Tao was happy to see all the negative comments online. “Good. Spread the word that Mu Sheng was arrested with a drug charge and make things look more convincing.”
His subordinate hesitated. “Did Mu Sheng really take drugs? Is this pure fabrication? What if people find out we were lying?”
The subordinate had seen Mu Sheng before. Judging from the excellent condition of her skin, she did not resemble a drug addict.
Yang Tao took a puff of his cigarette. “You are such a wuss. How could you survive in our trade? There are so many people you can pay to spread the news. You can even do it anonymously on your own. No one would know better.”
Yang Tao was unafraid to fabricate lies about Mu Sheng since he knew she did not have a powerful background. Even if she wanted to prove her innocence, no one would believe her.
After all, a false drug charge was not as easy to prove as her skiing skills. It was impossible for her to talk her way out of it easily. The moment the public was convinced of her drug charges, no one would believe her innocence.
“Hurry up.” Yang Tao kicked his subordinate as he stood in a daze. “You scaredy-cat. Bring me the laptop. I will do it!”
“Sure.” For Yang Tao’s subordinate, this was just a job. Although it was inevitable for his subordinate to do some unethical things in the process, he was incapable of fabricating such lies. Since Yang Tao offered to do it on his own, his subordinate was happy to bring the laptop over.
Yang Tao registered a new social media account and composed something convincing before he posted it online. His paid social media account holders quickly spread the post.
The next day, Mu Sheng saw all the news Tang Tiantian had forwarded her.
Mu Sheng checked the post and felt happy to see the new scandal was reposted over 50,000 times. This meant that it was legally qualified as libel.
