She quietly glanced at Song Wenchuan. He had his head down, looking at his phone, working.
Song Jingwan pressed her lips together uncomfortably. She took her phone to a place where there was no one and made a call.
As soon as the call connected, the person on the end began to blame her.
“Miss Song, what happened? Didn’t you say that we had total control? Did you hire someone else to help you promote? Miss Song, you were wrong this time. We’re the experts. We have our methods. By hiring other people, you’ve messed our plan up!”
“No—”
Before Song Jingwan managed to speak, she was scolded like crazy.
She furrowed her brows and had a foreboding feeling.
“Wait.”
After saying this, she immediately hung up and logged in to Weibo.
As soon as she saw the search rankings, her heart sank.

She clicked in. Not only had her name, address, and school been exposed, a lot of her private photos had been posted online.
Song Jingwan couldn’t even breathe steadily as she clicked into the comments with her trembling hands.
Although she had prepared herself, her eyes still darkened when she saw the comments.
“Isn’t she over-promoting herself?”
“Hahaha, isn’t this National School Beauty being too confident? Originally, when I saw her video, I quite liked her. But how many times has she made it on the rankings in the last 24 hours? Has she gone crazy for fame?”
“Sigh, humans are so fickle. When I thought her fame was accidental, I thought she was pretty and she sang well. But after I realized her deliberate actions, I went back to look at the video and somehow felt that her heavenly aura had faded. Not only that, she seemed so fake. Was I imagining things…?”
“No! You weren’t! I also feel that way!”
“Are you guys done being jealous? You’re just jealous that she’s pretty and talented!”
“Big Sis, you are so pretty. Ignore these trolls!”
“There was a snowstorm in X City and a whole heap of houses in the countryside have been destroyed. There are also people trapped inside. Did any of you notice that? There was also a car accident in XX Town that caused the death of over a dozen people. Did anyone take note of that? Are you guys blindly supporting her just because of her face?”
“F*ck, I really gotta give it to her. She must be really rich! If she wants to be famous, she should have spent money to appear in a film or appear on a variety show. I’ve spent all day seeing her on Weibo. She sure has her ways!”
“I’m getting judgment fatigue.”
“Big Sis is so pretty, muah~”
“I like Big Sis like this. Ignore the trolls. Get famous!”
“I like rich girls. What about you guys?”
“Actually, I think her version was better than the original.”
…
Song Jingwan saw a whole heap of brainless praises that endlessly tried to boost her status and promote her beauty. Some even compared her to others.
She had some self-awareness. In the past, when Song Yaoyao was around, there was no problem suppressing others with a simple performance.
But compared to a professional singer, Song Jingwan was well aware that she couldn’t compare.
Although the Songs had hired a singing teacher for her, she simply aimed to pass. It wasn’t a skill that she expected to actually come into use in the future…
