With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

The Zhou Guangchen recording incident quickly became a trending topic.

The fact that it was able to reach people all over the internet so quickly is undoubtedly due in no small part to A-Zhuang getting 997 to help out behind the scenes.

Zhou Guangchen and his company were also surprised that Shennong had secretly recorded the conversation. They cursed the man for being so insidious that he had even thought of such a thing. They worried that if this hadn't happened, he might have used it to blackmail them someday.

Zhou Guangchen deeply regretted his own past meddlesome behavior. Why did he have to meddle in other people's business?
In reality, only he knew that telling Shennong Ruanzhen the truth was partly motivated by a desire for revenge, but he never expected it to end this way, and it even damaged his own reputation.

His audience is mostly female, so it would be strange if they didn't lose a lot of fans after hearing the words he used.

Faced with this situation, the company was at a loss. Many voices online were demanding that Zhou Guangchen apologize and give an explanation. Even some of his female fans, who were not particularly attractive or had less-than-ideal figures, stood up and angrily asked him if he would also talk about them behind their backs, calling them disgusting or calling them fat sluts.

Shennong saw the situation online and called Zhou Guangchen again, his tone extremely smug and irritating, which made Zhou Guangchen furious and he started cursing.

"Hey bro, sorry, I accidentally lost my phone. I don't know who uploaded the conversation I accidentally recorded to the internet. Are you okay? Don't blame me, I didn't mean to."

"Xu Hewen, are you fucking trying to die?" Zhou Guangchen was so angry that his eyes turned black. "Can't you be happy for others too? Why do you have to make such a mess of things?"

"Oh dear, I told you my phone was lost, why are you so angry? And it's not my fault, is it? If you hadn't said those things, even if my phone was lost, it wouldn't have affected you at all. You should blame yourself for saying those things. Isn't that the truth?" Xu Hewen said smugly.

If Zhou Guangchen had been willing to help him, things wouldn't have escalated to this point.

Since he couldn't make things easy for him, he could only make the other party uncomfortable as well.

He didn't directly threaten the other party for money; he just released a recording. Even if it gets caught, it won't be a big problem. Isn't that the truth? Besides, he only accidentally recorded this while doing something else; he didn't expect it to be useful. He just wanted everyone to know what kind of person Zhou Guangchen was, and didn't want netizens to be deceived by Zhou Guangchen's facade. Did the other party say those things? They definitely did; the recording can't be fake.

So, are the others still important?
Hearing Zhou Guangchen cursing on the phone, Xu Hewen felt a sense of satisfaction.

It's better if everyone suffers as well as he does.

Thinking of this, his face contorted with rage, but unfortunately, he couldn't do anything to Ruan Zhen.

If he does anything further, given the other party's methods, he'll probably really be sent to jail. He can only endure it for now.

Sitting on a rest seat in the huge shopping mall, Xu Hewen felt very confused, as if it were all a dream. Thinking back to how successful he was not long ago, he had enough money to buy a nice car and was already dreaming of luxury cars and mansions.

How did it suddenly turn out like this?
Xu Hewen curled up in his seat, lost in a jumble of thoughts.

"As expected of the official team of Qingmeng Valley, this second anniversary celebration is so lively. I heard that they even invited that Ms. Ruan Ruan. Oh my god, it's a pity I couldn't get a ticket, otherwise I would definitely go and see it in person."

"Yes, I've heard that too. I've always loved Ruanruan's art style; it's so soothing. Although the style changed a bit later on, it's still very comfortable to look at. I just really like it. The earlier style was soothing, while the later style gives you a feeling of letting go of everything, feeling completely relaxed, as if you can float freely among the clouds." "The official announcement revealed that there's a surprise in the next map, and Ruanruan is said to be involved as well, and the art style seems to have changed drastically as well."

"I've also seen some rumors that the next map's theme will be adventure, so the previous style definitely won't be suitable anymore. Since the Qingmeng Valley team still dares to use Teacher Ruan Ruan, it's obvious that she can adapt to the style they need. Anyway, I'm looking forward to it."

"They're here! The invited guests are showing up one by one."

"If it weren't for Zhou Guangchen's incident, the second anniversary celebration would have been perfect. But this matter just had to be exposed today, and Zhou Guangchen was also invited to the event. However, given his condition, he probably won't be able to appear on camera."

"This guy deserves to be fired; what he said was disgusting. Xu is disgusting, but it's good that this was exposed. Zhou Guangchen makes money off female fans while saying things that insult women; he should be fired."

"Yeah, yeah, I didn't pay attention to this person at first, it seems that was the right decision."

"By the way, this time we also invited players from the Qingmeng Valley leaderboard. Some of them spend money on in-game purchases, while others climbed to the top by manually playing. In short, those who were invited must be people with some reputation in the game..."

As the two voices faded into the distance, Xu Hewen opened the live streaming app and found Qingmeng Valley's official account, where they were indeed celebrating their second anniversary.

For reasons unknown, he huddled in the corner, staring intently at the screen.

He gripped his phone tightly, watching one familiar anchor after another appear on screen, his heart burning with jealousy.

If he hadn't gotten into trouble, given his current fame, he would definitely have been invited to the second anniversary celebration, made a big splash, and gained even more fans.

"Next up is the long-awaited Teacher Ruan Ruan. Welcome, Teacher Ruan Ruan." As the host spoke, Azhen appeared on camera. Her appearance at this moment was completely different from when she first entered this body. If the two photos were placed side by side, no one would believe that it was the same person.

After an unknown amount of time, the host continued to introduce the guests present: "The next person walking towards us is someone you all probably already know, but she has another identity. She is now walking towards us again as a player from Qingmeng Valley. So, please welcome our player, Ms. Qianruo."

The moment the name "Qian Ruo" was mentioned, it not only attracted people at the scene and those watching the spectacle online, but also caught the attention of Xu Hewen. He had originally planned to turn off his phone, but he didn't expect Qian Ruo to dare to appear at the second anniversary celebration.

Is she really so strong-willed that she doesn't care about what others say?
In that case, wouldn't all his previous scheming make him look like a clown?
However, when he saw that the person appearing on the screen was a face he had seen before, he froze on the spot.

how come?
At the same time, Zhou Guangchen, who had been asked to leave the event venue, also witnessed this scene and could not believe it.

When Qian Ruo appeared here, completely unafraid of those gazes, they were naturally disappointed and distressed. But the fact that she had become beautiful made them even more distressed.

"I was actually quite surprised when I first found out, but anyway, welcome to the show today," the host said.

Azhen began, "No one dislikes being beautiful, and I actually prefer being a better version of myself. When you're not good-looking, both your life and your emotions become worse. Or perhaps it's the other way around; it's precisely because your life becomes worse that it affects other aspects, even your appearance. A clean and tidy face makes you feel good, a healthy weight makes you feel relaxed, and most importantly, it affects your health. But I also need to say that no matter what my appearance is like, I shouldn't be insulted or ridiculed." (End of Chapter)
