After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God-Chapter 710 - : The Whole Internet Was Down for Half an Hour (2)
Chapter 710: The Whole Internet Was Down for Half an Hour (2)
Translator: _Min_
“Remember, you must do as you say, never listen to my works again. Keep it up, I believe in you.”
The internet was awash with insults this time, indeed plenty of them.
A large portion were paid trolls.
Another portion consisted of male fans of Homeward Deer who, seeing the shattered image of their dream goddess, couldn’t accept that they had once admired such a person, and they hurled abuse using every obscene insult imaginable.
The female fans couldn’t defend her.
When the situation reversed, these abusive male fans were left dumbfounded.
Regret was unavoidable.
[I agree! Never listen to your Sister Si’s works, do as you say, a real man sticks to his word.]
[Never seen anyone as straightforward as Si Fuqing, she doesn’t flatter her fans. A breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry.]
[You might not know this, but for the drama ‘Crossing the Demon Realm,’ her salary was actually very low, less than one-fifth of the top actresses’, and it was at her insistence that Tong Haiqiu invested more funds into the production.]
“Moreover, I will sue the lady who impersonated me, prepare to receive a letter from my lawyer,” Si Fuqing said calmly. “That’s all from my side for now, but if you have any more questions, feel free to consult my lawyer. She will help you.”
With that, she waved her hand and gracefully exited the stage.
After a few steps, she returned.
“By the way, my new drama ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ will premiere on Starlight TV and IFTV on the 20th of next month,” Si Fuqing announced calmly. “I welcome everyone to watch it, and the drama’s official Weibo will hold a giveaway of small gifts for everyone then.”
Backstage, the head and assistant looked at each other in disbelief.
How did Si Fuqing manage to find an opportunity for promotion even here?
The channel head lit a cigarette, slowly exhaled, and his fingers trembled slightly, “I really believe that saying now.”
Si Fuqing is reliable, she handles things herself.
Working with Si Fuqing, that’s like finding a treasure.
The audience was still confused.
[…I actually thought she was sharing her experience, my apologies.]
[Damn, it really is the drama of the year, I knew there was a big scoop coming! So satisfying!]
[Gu Zhinan must have thought that a voice actress like Homeward Deer couldn’t stand up to her, but who knew Homeward Deer was actually Si Fuqing? This plot twist, I’m dying of laughter, Gu Zhinan must be so confused!]
[Si Fuqing is really tough, I doubt anyone would dare to mess with her now, Gu Zhinan thought she was tough but Si Fuqing showed her.]
[Gu Zhinan is done now. Today’s viewership for Starlight TV’s New Year’s Show reached 85 million, she’s such a green tea bit*h, and even if Homeward Deer was just an ordinary person, what she did was too much. Served her right, she messed with the wrong person!]
With so many real-time viewers, even more people would be aware.
Gu Zhinan knew this all too well.
She collapsed in her seat, her clothes soaked with cold sweat, her complexion as pale as paper, and her body trembling uncontrollably.
Because she was an award-winning actress and had risen to fame early, her seat had been placed in the front row.
The cameras occasionally panned to her.
The two male celebrities next to her deliberately moved their chairs a bit farther away.
As if she were some sort of disease.
Gu Zhinan was utterly devastated, completely drained of strength to stay any longer, but with so many eyes on her, she couldn’t just leave.
How could this happen?
She had planned for every contingency but had not foreseen that Si Fuqing and Homeward Deer were the same person.
What was she to do now?
Gu Zhinan’s unprecedented panic showed.
She had been under Third Master LI’s wing since early in her career and had a smooth sailing, suffering little setbacks, indeed suffering from a severe case of princess syndrome.
Gu Zhinan managed a strained smile, not knowing how she had made it to the end of the New Year’s Show.
As soon as the event ended, she fled like a night creature, found Sister Hua, and burst into desperate tears, “Sister Hua, what do we do now? How… how could she be Homeward Deer? I can’t believe it, I really can’t believe it!”
Sister Hua had also not anticipated such a turn of events.
She gritted her teeth and pulled Gu Zhinan away, “Hurry, the media will be here soon, and we won’t be able to escape.”
Such a big scoop of the year, and it didn’t even cost a dime, as marketers had already sprung into action to cash in.
Soon, new trending topics exploded and changed the top topics.
#SiFuqing, HomewardDeer 981,943,810 Popular
#AnimeAndRealWorldGoddess, TheSamePerson 891,273,439 Popular
#GuZhinan. Backstage 431,940,462
This time, Weibo crashed outright, and the programmers couldn’t fix it fast enough.
The crash lasted for half an hour.
Once it was urgently repaired, the gossip army surged forward, nearly breaking the back-end again.
Netizens had already started digging into Gu Zhinan’s background.
This generation of netizens were like Sherlocks, keen-eyed, and they quickly discovered Gu Zhinan’s affair with Third Master LI.
But more importantly, Third Master LI was a married man with children.
Pulling one hair moves the whole body.
The hashtag #Gu Zhinan, the other woman# quickly climbed to the top of the trending search, followed by #Gu Zhinan stole the best actress award from Cheng Yiqiao#.
The top ten trending topics were all directly or indirectly related to Si Fuqing.
[Disgusting, interfering in someone else’s marriage, neither the man nor the woman is decent.]
[Cheng Yiqiao is really unlucky, having her best actress award stolen by Gu Zhinan and even getting suppressed.]
[Si Fuqing, you’re our only hope to cleanse the entertainment circle, forever a legend!]
In the back stage lounge, Sang Yanqing pinched the bridge of her nose, visibly drained. “Weren’t you supposed to keep it low-key?”
“I’ve been as restrained as I could,” Si Fuqing replied while changing her clothes. “If it had been the old me, she might not have seen the sunrise tomorrow.”
Yuejian nodded in agreement.
Her temperament was actually milder compared to the second senior brother and little junior sister.
Sang Yanqing said, “…What else have you done in the past? Tell me, I think I can handle it.”
Si Fuqing thought for a moment and casually mentioned, “Ever heard of Black Spider? It’s an international criminal organization. They tried to trap me, but failed. I ended up taking down their hideout by myself.”
Sang Yanqing clutched her chest, “You should go now, Mr. Yu is waiting for you outside.”
She had clearly overestimated her heart’s capability.
Si Fuqing put on her hat and mask, winked, and said, “Sister Sang, goodbye.”
Sang Yanqing, expressionless, “Hurry up and leave, I still have to work overtime.”
At the back door, a black car was parked by the curb.
Si Fuqing hopped towards it.
The car door opened.
Yu Xiheng opened his eyes, his gaze carrying a soft smile, “Did you have fun?”
“Not bad,” Si Fuqing got into the car, squinting her fox-like eyes, “She’s provoked me several times now.”
The car’s heater was on full blast.
The snowflakes in her hair instantly melted into tiny droplets, trickling down.
Yu Xiheng picked up a dry disposable washcloth and began to dab her hair.
His hands were warm.
Si Fuqing enjoyed it, “Boss, you’d definitely make a good dad.”

Yu Xiheng looked up, his eyes full of meaning.
He simply replied, “Hmm.”
“Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a meal,” Si Fuqing said cheerfully, “Anything goes.”
Online, details were still being dug up. Meanwhile, Gleaming Crystal had just left the recording studio.
She had recently taken on several voice acting jobs, keeping her quite busy.
Before Gleaming Crystal could sit down to rest, she received a call from a friend.
“Gleaming Crystal, don’t do the voice-over for Gu Zhinan’s new drama,” her friend said. “Her drama’s tanked. No TV station’s going to buy it.”
Gleaming Crystal was stunned. “Tanked? What do you mean?”
The show hadn’t even aired yet. How could it have tanked?
And considering Gu Zhinan was a Golden Flower Award winner, guaranteed ratings, different from other traffic stars—no matter how bad the production, it couldn’t possibly sink to a level where no station would buy it, could it?
“Si Fuqing is Homeward Deer! The entertainment industry exploded,” her friend grew excited. “What are you waiting for? Just go to her, let her give you any supporting role, and you’ll be in. Aren’t you both veterans of Deity Voice? You must have known she was Homeward Deer.”
