At this point, the interest in the issue had grown to a higher level. There were some flucuations but the comments just continued to rise. Even if somebody were to have some deleted within minutes there would be a set of new ones to replace them. 80% of them were people guessing who it was and the other 20%  were people defending their idols. There were storms under certain individual's weibos as their fans fought to protect them. Around fifteen minutes had gone by before each person mentioned on the list came out to make a general statement. Usually, they would leave it alone but with the amount of chaos online it was best for them to try and clear their name. The fifteen minutes were most likely their PR team discussing on how to handle things. It was a very quick decision to go forward on the statement after the first one was released.

KingSun: "Hello, please do not connect me to the #MysterySFamily my heart is pure!" 

Some even made jokes about it to indirectly claim their innocence. 

SongOverBloom: "Please don't tag me, even I am curious ah!" 

ShenShen: @LuoLuo my curiosity is killing me! How much time is left??" 

Xi Long started walking back to his room to shower and change out of his workout clothes. He left Zhuang Wei behind as he wanted to put in a bit extra at the gym. His eyes were focused on his phone as he surfed through the comments. It wasn't necessary for him to watch this extensively but he enjoyed watching things unfold per his plan. 

From his quick glance the Su Family had not made a statement, they were probably scrambling to fix things. 'Ah I should've placed a camera inside to film their despair....next time." At this point it was the 30 minute mark till the news was released and about 60% of the people mentioned on the list had a comment of somesort. They would be forced to make one soon to blend in but that statement would also reinforce their shamelessness when the time came. 

There was a twinkle in his eyes, revenge no matter how small or big was satisfying to him. He could imagine his kitten's expression as she saw how he made the family crumble. She probably wouldn't be surprised but tease him around it. After spending some time with her he was sure that she was familiar and supportive of such methods. It would be a bit of a problem if she were the type to advocate for such families because he found that trait detestable. Many women tried to use that method of showing how magnanimous they were and establish a 'pure' image. Which frankly made him want to vomit, that pure ideology was just illogical and stupid. Between a pure loved by all woman he would always chose the loyal but villainous type woman.

Throwing his phone aside he quickly went into the bathroom to shower and freshen up. It didn't take long before he was back outside in his towel and rummaging through the closet for clothes to wear. Pulling out a cotton grey dress shirt and blue slacks he changed into them. He didn't feel like wearing a full suit today so he skipped the tie but took kept his jacket in his hand. Drying out his hair with one hand he picked his phone back up the other. Checking the time he saw that it was five minutes to the one hour mark. Opening up weibo he was able to see that at least one person from each family had spoken. He was curious as to which person they had sacrificed for the Su family. It would be nice if they had chosen Su Moxi but unfortunately he knew it wouldn't be so. As a woman, she held a lot of use in the future for a marraige deal or something more sinister. For someone they raised so spoiled and lavishly was like a long term investment that hasn't bore any fruit only bringing harm. After all most of this revenge was her fault but the sealed deal was the work the Su family was doing against him. He would let most of it go but to bring their daughter into the mix meant that they had gotten c.o.c.ky. When people forget their place its his responsibility to remind them, no? There was an unread text message from Shufen on his phone with a weibo share link. Clicking on it the screen opened up to a lower level family member's weibo. It was some man named Su Feng, most likely from a branch family and the current scapegoat. 

Su Feng: "The Su family is not linked to this matter any comments made to slander will be addressed by our lawyers." 

It was a fairly standered response but having lawyers in the mix made it feel like 'silencing' rather than 'protecting.' The clock ticked down and exactly at 00 an article was released on LuoLuo's page. There was only a short accompanying statement "I'm shocked and can only ask are you human?"

Within seconds there were hundreds and thousands of likes and people opening the article. It was a clear and concise breakdown of the exchanges between the Su family and the orphanage. Attached were some screenshots with blurred out info of the contract and some images of the poor children against thugs. It also had some quotes and screenshots of the direct message Shufen sent - of course with the handle blanked out. Not all of the available evidence was given to LuoLuo because it would seem fake if so. Whatever she had and detailed were items people could believe were given to her. The video and voice recordings were their final weapon to nail in the coffin. It wasn't surprising that people were shocked and outraged. 

ThunderousMountain: "I am DISGUSTED. Those poor children, @SuFeng is this what you call no connection???" 

JFMango: "I am beyond words....some people deserve death."
