At last, I have finally found you!

The news of the contract termination spread rapidly, and soon the entire internet knew about it.

The moment people heard that Zhang Chuchu had been dropped, everyone except her fans rejoiced.

“Well done!”

“Haha, I never cared about the center-position girl group before, but just for firing Zhang Chuchu, I’ll definitely watch the next episode!”

“Same here, I have to watch, for Su Yunjin!”

“It’s such a pity about this episode; Su Yunjin sings so beautifully, and I haven’t had enough yet.”

“Exactly, I hope Su Yunjin performs even better next time.”

Most people were celebrating.

However, Zhang Chuchu’s diehard fans were still causing a scene.

“Why only drop our Chuchu? What about Luo Zizhen?”

“Exactly! Why doesn’t that wretch get fired too? She started it!”

“This show is disgusting! Our Chuchu did nothing wrong!”

There were plenty of Zhang Chuchu’s rabid fans, and once news of her dismissal broke, they swarmed like a disturbed wasp nest, furiously attacking Luo Zizhen and shouting that it was unfair to single out Zhang Chuchu.

Their antics provoked widespread annoyance among netizens.

Meanwhile, their attacks on Luo Zizhen directly enraged Luo’s own supporters.

Granted, Luo Zizhen was at fault in the matter.

But from start to finish, she’d been as silent as a mouse, issuing no public statement after the incident.

On the other hand, Zhang Chuchu had been jumping up and down—claiming hospitalization at first, and then being exposed for manipulating marketing accounts.

Now she was dragging others down with her. Did she really think people were pushovers?

“As expected, trash fans support trash idols.”

“Heh, why does Zhang Chuchu even have so many fans? Awkward acting, dodging responsibilities, always pouting and glaring—there’s something off about her!”

“Everyone associated with this woman is bad news!”

“What right does she have to stay in showbiz? Is it really her own talent?”

The war of words erupted instantly.

Before long, the fans of Zhang and Luo were locked in heated battle online.

Meanwhile, on Su Yunjin’s end, she woke up to find it nearly noon.

After a simple wash-up, she went downstairs for breakfast, checking the online chatter as she ate.

At a glance, the trending topics amused her.

First: Center-Position Girl Group Terminates Zhang Chuchu’s Contract.

Second: Zhang Chuchu and Luo Zizhen’s fans brawling online.

Third: Zhang Chuchu’s past scandals.

Fourth: Luo Zizhen’s past scandals.

The girl group had dropped Zhang Chuchu, but instead of fighting with the organizers, she’d ended up feuding with Luo Zizhen instead.

Wasn’t this a classic case of two dogs fighting over a bone?

Since when did entertainment circles get this entertaining?

With a gossipy smile, Su Yunjin clicked through the trending posts in reverse order.

Thanks to netizens’ explanations, she learned that Luo Zizhen had originally been a racy model on a certain website, and her current success was all thanks to trading boyfriends.

Now, embarrassing photos of Luo Zizhen were all over the internet.

As for Zhang Chuchu, her scandals were even more numerous. She’d shot to fame thanks to an idol drama, trying to reinvent herself as an actress. Yet her acting never improved, and she began taking shortcuts—several roles were rumored to have been secured through affairs with directors.

Beyond that, Zhang Chuchu’s reputation for unprofessionalism was well known in the industry.

More than one director had publicly criticized her.

Still, Zhang Chuchu’s “genuine personality” persona drew many devoted fans.

No one knew exactly what they saw in her, but whatever Zhang Chuchu asked, they did without question.

No matter how many scandals broke, they simply didn’t care.

So, when the news broke that the girl group had terminated her contract, the national interest never waned—the topic remained at the peak of the trending charts.

Even now, it was still marked as “explosive.”

“But come to think of it, Lu Yiqing agreeing to terminate Zhang Chuchu’s contract is really a rarity,” Su Yunjin muttered, clicking on the hottest trending post.

She settled in, ready to enjoy the show.

After all, she didn’t believe for a second that someone who hadn’t helped her at the scene would suddenly terminate Zhang Chuchu’s contract on her behalf.

Of course, she also doubted that simply exposing the incident with Camera 4 would have compelled Lu Yiqing to act.

Something else must have happened!

But her curiosity didn’t last long. Soon, Su Yunjin found her answer among the trending posts.

Someone had actually uploaded a video of the rescue that day, and the H City Fire Department had even posted about it on the girl group’s social media.

Seeing that, Su Yunjin was caught between laughter and tears.

She’d never intended to publicize her act of heroism—she saw no need for it. But who could have guessed that the little boy’s mother would tell the story?

It made her feel a bit embarrassed!

Ring, ring, ring.

Just as Su Yunjin was smiling softly at the screen, her phone suddenly rang—a call from an unfamiliar number.

She hesitated, then answered. “Hello?”

“Hello, is this Ms. Su Yunjin?” came a man’s deep voice.

“Yes, this is she. And you are…?”

“I’m with the H City Fire Department. Ms. Su Yunjin, we would like to formally invite you to our station to receive a banner for your act of bravery. Please come to our headquarters at 2 p.m. this Saturday.”

“All right, but may I make two requests?”

“What are they?”

“First, I don’t want any media present.”

Su Yunjin wasn’t fond of the press, so she’d rather skip the publicity.

“Understood.”

“Second, could I meet the boy’s mother from that day?”

From the video posted yesterday by the little boy’s mother, Su Yunjin was almost certain it hadn’t been filmed by her.

Although there were many people in the park that day, most had been helping with the rescue—very few would have been filming.

Moreover, the video had captured everything from the very start, so completely and clearly—if anyone managed that, it definitely wasn’t the boy’s mother!

Since she hadn’t filmed it herself, where had the boy’s mother gotten the video?

Not many people knew Su Yunjin had performed the rescue, and even fewer would have recognized her. The video wasn’t released immediately but surfaced later, which made it even more curious.

Of course, she had no ulterior motive—she simply wanted to thank whoever had helped behind the scenes.

After Zhang Chuchu had targeted her yesterday, Su Yunjin looked into it and realized the attack was meant to utterly ruin her; even if she later revealed the truth, it would do little to help.

She wasn’t overly bothered by the subsequent criticism.

But someone had stepped in to help, and because of the rescue video, public opinion swung in her favor.

Lu Yiqing was able to fire Zhang Chuchu, who had a large base of rabid fans, and the girl group could kick her out to widespread cheers.

It was all thanks to the video.

So, she wanted to thank this person—not for any other reason, but simply because they’d helped her at a crucial moment.

Even if it was just a coincidence, she still wanted to say thank you!

“The boy’s mother might not come, but the person who helped you might show up.”

The official tone vanished, replaced by a man’s voice barely suppressing laughter.

At that moment, Su Yunjin realized she’d been played. Frowning, she fell silent.

Then the playful voice on the other end continued, “It’s me, Fu Lin. Do you remember me? The unlucky guy you rescued. I finally managed to find you.”
