A female protagonist who suffers abuse in a novel? I'm flipping the table and going crazy on th

Hearing the silence on the other end of the phone, Wen Qi scoffed, "What? You're not going to talk now because you've encountered a difficult question? Weren't you going to be rude to me?"

Seeing that Lu Jisheng remained silent, Wen Qi lost her patience: "Not going to talk, huh? Fine, I don't have time to play house with you. Bye."

"Wait! Wen Qi, don't hang up!"

Lu Jisheng quickly spoke up.

Wen Qi stopped what she was doing: "Speak."

Lu Jisheng took a deep breath, his voice low and menacing: "Wen Wen, she's still your sister. Even if you don't like her, don't force her like this. She's being cyberbullied so badly she can't even leave her house, and she's afraid to even look at her phone."

"If this continues, she'll break down. Can you please have some compassion, delete the video and the accompanying text, post a clarification, and let her off the hook?"

Wen Qi laughed uncontrollably, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world: "Lu Jisheng, when you were publicly showing off your affection and inciting online bullying against me, why didn't you ever think of letting me go? Back then, I was being vilified by the entire internet, why didn't you show any kindness and clarify things?"

She paused, then changed the subject: "However, it's not impossible for me to post a clean post, it just depends on how much money you're willing to pay."

Lu Ji trembled with anger: "We're husband and wife! Do you have to be so calculating with me? Do you have to talk about money?"

"If I don't want to talk about money, am I supposed to talk about feelings?" Wen Qi sneered. "Sorry, your feelings are worthless right now. By the way, if this money you're giving me is marital property, I won't stand for it."

Don't try to play tricks on me. I've already had my lawyer tally up all your assets.

From this day forward, everything under your name—your house, car, savings, and shares in the Lu Group—belongs to me.

"If you dare to hold back or resist, I have plenty of ways to ruin you and the Lu family, leaving you with nothing."

"Wen Qi, you..." Lu Ji was so angry that he couldn't say a word.

I never expected Wen Qi to be so ruthless.

Not only do they want to swindle his money, but they also want to seize all the assets under his name!

Wen Qi didn't give him a chance to continue speaking. Before he could finish, she pressed the hang-up button.

Lu Jisheng gripped his phone so tightly that he almost crushed the phone's casing.

Standing to the side, Li Min watched Lu Jisheng lose control and cautiously stepped forward: "Mr. Lu... this, this is my phone. If you break it, you'll have to pay for it."

Lu Jisheng snapped back to reality, looked at his phone, then at Li Min, his anger finding no outlet.

He slammed his phone onto the sofa and roared, "Useless! You're all useless! What use are you to me?"

Li Min: "..."

You're such a scumbag, yet you blame others for being trash?

We can only enjoy it verbally!

The moment Wen Qi released the full video of the divorce hearing, the entire internet erupted in outrage, and the barrage of criticism instantly swept over the entire Lu family.

She hadn't removed the old scandals about the Lu family that she had posted on her social media page, and the combination of old and new information fueled the controversy.

In just one hour, the Lu family's shady dealings spread like wildfire.

On all major social media platforms, voices condemning the Lu family are everywhere.

The Lu family has cultivated the business world for many years and has a lot of media resources. In the past, it was just a matter of saying a word to suppress any scandals.

This time, however, they used all their connections to get their media partners to fabricate a fake scandal about Wen Qi overnight.

The result is either that the platform directly rejects the review, or it doesn't even provide an entry point for publication.

Either the account is permanently banned the moment it's posted, without even a chance to appeal through the backend.

Netizens waited for half a day, but didn't even see a trace of Wen Qi's maliciously photoshopped picture.

Even though a few marketing accounts were quick enough to take a blurry screenshot and post it, they still managed to get away with it.

The next second, I received a lawyer's letter from the law firm for spreading rumors. Then, the poster's personal information was completely exposed, and the account was immediately banned and the person was held accountable.

Such swift and decisive actions deterred all those who wanted to ride the wave of popularity or whitewash the Lu family.

No one dared to go any further, for fear of getting burned.

The Lu family's attempt to clear their name was like a heavy punch hitting cotton, failing to make a ripple and instead confirming their guilty conscience.

In the suburbs, the Lu family's villa is quiet and serene.

Mr. Lu has been retired for many years and has been living here for the rest of his life.

The old housekeeper, who had served the old man for half his life, came in this morning with medicine, his steps unsteady and his speech hesitant.

Old Master Lu glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "Speak plainly if you have something to say, don't beat around the bush."

The old butler gritted his teeth, knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, and could only tell the whole story of the online uproar, his voice getting softer and softer as he spoke, afraid of upsetting the old man.

Grandpa Lu's expression gradually darkened as he took the tablet.

I clicked on the news headline, then clicked on the trending topics list on the T platform—

The top twenty spots on the list were almost entirely filled with stories of Wen Qi tearing apart scumbag boyfriends, scandals involving the Lu family, the chaos of the Lu family's second branch, and stepmothers and stepsons...

These kinds of terms dominate the screen, with the word "explosive" appearing prominently after each term.

The comment section was filled with vile insults, cursing the entire Lu family and their ancestors for eighteen generations.

"Cough cough...cough!" The old man coughed suddenly, his face turning red.

My vision went black, and I almost fainted. The tablet in my hand fell onto the carpet.

"What a bunch of wicked creatures...what a bunch of wicked creatures!"

The old man clutched his chest, trembling with anger. "The reputation of the Lu family has been ruined by these unfilial descendants."

"Master, perhaps Miss Wen is just making things up to smear the Lu family?" The old butler quickly stepped forward to comfort the old man.

Grandpa Lu waved his hand, his eyes cloudy yet clear.

He had met Wen Qi; the girl had clear eyes and wouldn't slander people for no reason.

He never imagined that right under his nose, the Lu family members were hiding so many shady dealings, which were a disgrace to the family!

"Master, you look terrible. Lie down and rest." The old butler panicked when he saw that the man's face was pale and his lips were blue.

Old Master Lu struggled to his feet and, after a long pause, finally spoke in a hoarse voice, "Give...give me my phone."

The old housekeeper didn't dare delay and quickly handed over the phone.

The old man pulled out Wen Qi's number from his contacts, his fingers trembling so badly that he had to press the button several times before he could finally get through.

The phone was answered after two rings, and Wen Qi's lazy, nonchalant voice came through: "Who is this?"

"Wen Qi, I am Grandpa Lu." The old man tried to keep his tone calm.

"What is it?" Wen Qi's voice was not respectful at all, still lazy.

The languid voice startled Old Master Lu for a moment, then he asked in a deep voice, "Are the things you posted online true?"

Wen Qi chuckled lightly, her words blunt and sarcastic: "It's all true, Mr. Lu. There's more to the mess your Lu family has done than just this. Let me think... that old bastard Lu Zhenhua's mistress, the embezzlement of public funds, and your second son, your good grandson... there's so much news about your good grandson, I haven't even had a chance to publish it yet."
