Guan Meiyi’s public image had always been positive, she was charitable, elegant, had a good background, and had never had nasty dating rumors. She was a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry.

When Guan Meiyi had started to reprimand Ling Tianya, everyone thought that Ling Tianya was an arrogant bully.

There were even people that had were streaming the incident live on the internet, and it blew up even faster when Guan Meiyi stepped in. Of course, Guan Meiyi was the just elder sister, Ling Yuqing was the poor step-sister being bullied, and Ling Tianya was the only one getting the bulk of the scoldings.

“So she’s TY? I can’t believe I’ve liked her work for so long, she’s actually such a bitch!”

“That’s going too far! Bullying her was bad enough, now she made her kneel in public!”

“Eh, there’s so much drama in the socialite circles. In the past, there’ve been stories of the legal daughter bullying the illegitimate child. What more, it’s the step-daughter now!”

“Most of TY’s works were filled with different schemes and plots, intertwining with depth and complexity. It was so satisfying to watch, but thinking about it… she must be a conniving person herself to be able to write such things!”

“Unfollow! Ban! Protest! Who would want to watch works by such a woman?!”

The internet was a powerful place; within a short period of time, Ling Tianya became a household name. Conveniently, the news reports from six years ago came up in the search results with her name, and Ling Tianya became a much-hated person quickly.

Faced with all the criticism, Ling Tianya was barely fazed at all. She merely looked down at Ling Yuqing who was still on the ground, “Ling Yuqing, stand up.”

Ling Tianya was still so collected unexpectedly.

Things were not playing out as Ling Yuqing thought. She had blown up the situation, Ling Tianya should have been scrambling to beg her to stand up, before coaxing her to calm down. Then she should have been negotiating with Ling Tao to bring her and her mom back to the Ling family.

Ling Yuqing shook her head, “Tianya, I won’t get up until you’re willing to accept me…”

“Huh! That’s just emotional blackmail!” Ling Tianya thought. “I’ll give you one last chance, do you want to get up?” Ling Tianya’s gaze pierced through Ling Yuqing.

Ling Yuqing lowered her head, sobbing silently, not planning to get up at all.

“Very well.” Ling Tianya nodded, “You’ve lost your chance.”

Ling Yuqing raised her head to look at Ling Tianya, an uneasiness bubbled from within, but she still insisted on kneeling despite the pain in her knees. Things were already at that stage, she might as well go all the way.

Even if Ling Tianya is heartless, and didn’t help her convince Ling Tao, the pressures of the gossip and criticism would one day crumble Ling Tianya, making her life more difficult from then on. If word reached Ling Tao’s ears, he would assume that Ling Tianya had bullied her, and as the victim, Ling Tao would definitely take pity on her. There would then be a chance that she would be allowed to move back home.

“What do you mean, Tianya? Are you just going to let Yuqing keep kneeling like that? How can you be so cruel?” Guan Meiyi continued to criticize Ling Tianya.

Ling Tianya paid no attention to her words, she started to fiddle with her phone. Not too long later, her phone started to play a video, one of Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing conversing in the main hall.

Ling Tianya increased the volume to the maximum, the sounds of the mother-daughter pair flooding the entire room.

“Mom, when can we go home? My friends already know that we’re staying in the hotel, I feel that they look at me differently now…”

“The old hag’s still angry, your dad won’t let us back as long as she’s still angry. Ling Tao’s great, he’s just stupid. She’s already a step into her coffin, why should he still be afraid of her? All these years, wasn’t I the one taking care of her?”
