Mama's Princess Is Daddy's Beloved

Soon after Zheng Wenting received the law letter officially, an announcement was made on the internet about Li Xue's comeback. The margin of the statement was not kept too big, but the news was still circulated everywhere about her revival in the industry.

At the start of the announcement, it didn't make any uproar as the netizens had almost forgotten who Li Xue was and what made her quit her career years back. But after the searches were done on the internet browsers, many people come to remember the scandal from years ago.

"Hey, now that I have searched her name online, I come to remember that she is the one who ruined herself and her success by getting involved in a dirty scandal years ago."

"Yes, yes, she is the same. I have heard she was quite popular at that time. Like she was rising in a monopoly. But what made her return to the industry? Wasn't her leaving the industry the only best thing for her and also for society?"

"Who cares how popular she was in the past? She was just a b*tch who never knew to cherish the food served on her own plate. She wanted to leech over other men by selling her body to them."

"Exactly, she has come to become the black swan. Too bad we already know her truth."

"Haha … Even if she returns now, does she think she can stay in the career for longer? What a fool. After knowing her scandal from years ago, we, the people of Chiboa, are sensible enough to know what type of degraded personality she is. There is no way anyone would be following her"

"Hmm. Who will follow her? Her past says how toxic she is to society. There is no way she would be getting any popularity back. She would just come in the industry and die again for good."

One after the other searches, tweets, and posts were made against Li Xue. If one posted something about her, many others would go there and add their thoughts about the things. Even if their opinions were not needed in the scenarios, they would still not hesitate to go all the way to add their twist of words and vent their anger on the trending news.

The responses came from all sides, like it was not just simple netizens but also from the fans of other subsisting models in the industry. It was not like Li Xue didn't have any loyal fans at the moment. She still had some, but because of the things that had happened with her in the past, none had the confidence to come up with the words in her support. So, instead of being the keyboard lasher, they chose to be the silent listeners.

But even with all the odds, the thing came in favor of Li Xue. Just a night, and with all their comments, searches, and tweets, she was already trending on the #top3 trending posts on the internet, something that was very hard for even many A-lister models.

The following day when Li Xue woke up, she was all normal. Looking at her could make anyone feel like she has almost forgotten that she was returning to the industry she has left a year back. Feng Shufen also looked at her. Last night, he had heard her mentioning the proceeding things on her ends to him. But seeing her so calm and nonchalant did not amaze him.

They got the morning tea together in a feeling of blissful peace, but that peace only remained for the moment. Because soon, Li Xue's phone started ringing at the side to let her know the brewing storm outside her bubble.

Feng Shufen's eyes caught the number displaying on the phone screen first. His brows tugged together into a frown first, but he kept sipping his tea all handsomely. Li Xue also reached for her phone soon. Her eyes were showing a little surprise, but at the same time, her lips curling up to give a smile of the brightest peak.

"Good morning, Yi Lan! I never knew you were this early riser before?" She greeted, connecting the call before it could die down. "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Girl, are you really asking me about the sleep? Do you think I could sleep with the things going on the internet?" From the other end, Yi Lan said. Her voice was sounding all sluggish and gloomy. She was wrapped in the blanket from behind while sitting on the bed with her laptop at the front with a dark black ring formed under her eyes.

Li Xue's brows furrowed at her words. "What is happening on the internet?" She asked, not understanding any of her reasons.

"Darling, you have become the trending social media topic. What else do you think there can be to make me go this crazy and sleep-deprived? Of course, it must be things related to you to keep me at the edge of explosion". Yi Lan replied with utmost sincerity, but it only made Li Xue close her eyes and purse her lips.

"Yi Lan, why are you even looking at the internet at this hour? Don't you know how important night sleep is?" She said, completely ignoring the part that it was her trending on the news.

On the other side, Yi Lan could no longer believe her own ears. At once, jumping off her bed and throwing away her blanket, she started in an unbelievable tone. "Li Xue, is that really you? How can you be this easy? I said, you are trending on there, and you are not even asking me what the people are talking about you? How can you be at ease?"

Feng Yi Lan was speechless to see the calm demeanor of her friend. Though she was not expecting any exaggeration on the thing, at least a slight depression in her voice would have been enough. But now, seeing her all at ease, she was just thinking if her Li Xue was even fine or was just pretending to be fine on her own. She was both concerned and worried for her.

"What's there to ask, Yi Lan? Didn't we already predict the things before? There could be nothing to go out of that prediction. Except for the bad and heated comments from the netizens, I could not expect anything better to come. So, why worry about the thing which we have already contemplated from before". Li Xue explained all patiently. Her voice, not even for once showing any loss.

After the incident five years back, she has already become quite strong to take such comments, and it no longer affects her.

"Li Xue, you have grown strong, you know that, right?" Feng Yi Lan finally said, feeling proud of her friend.

To which Li Xue just smiled. "I know."
