Chapter 280 - Trolled Over The Net

Zi Yi's conversation with them lasted until late in the morning.

People from all walks of life had been searching for her since yesterday evening because of that flying racing car of hers.

Coupled with the fact that Elder Dou was in critical condition, it had attracted even more attention. Be it in reality or over the net, her identity and relationship with the Dou Family had been dug out very soon.

At the start, everyone felt that she was super awesome. However, after they learned that she was a hedonist, idiot, and shameless woman who had even snatched her cousin's boyfriend, what then remained was only a wave of criticism.

"So what if she's slightly skilled? Moreover, that flying car might not have come from her."

"That's right. She has such a beautiful appearance and is also a hedonist. Who knows how many men she has seduced in private?"

"I heard that even her family is out of contact with her. For her parents to end their relationship, I wonder what kind of unforgivable thing she had done?"

"You'd better go watch her racing competition from some time back. She unexpectedly won first place… At that time I thought that she was pretty awesome but I seriously doubt how she won championships right now."

"That woman also has an unclear relationship with several young masters from the capital's high society."

These comments soon took the spotlight and the Internet was filled with bad comments.

The reporters, especially those gossip reporters, smelled a perfect opportunity. When someone saw Zi Yi heading for the First Hospital, they had gone to the entrance and formed a blockade.

As the identity of the person receiving the operation was very special, the higher-ups had dispatched military troops which prevented them from entering.

However, this could not stop their passion for digging up gossip.

They had stayed guard outside all night just to catch onto Zi Yi.

In fact, the Dou Family members were unaware of the outside situation and Zi Yi neither had the time to know.

However, the young masters and young ladies of the high-society got hold of the news at the very first instance.

There were some who gloated at her plight.

"Fantastic, that woman's retribution is finally here."

"How dare she be so stuck up. I'd like to see how she solves this problem."

…

When He Fei got hold of this news, he was so anxious to the extent he wanted to use his family's influence. He knocked on He Jingcheng's room in the middle of the night. However, after He Fei informed him of this issue, he did not stop or force him back. He merely said, "If you have the capabilities, go ahead and stand up for her.

But don't you forget, that reputation of hers is true and the relationship between you two can be easily dugout. If you were to stand out for her, you would certainly implicate our family and we would become the target of public criticism at that time.

Are you really intending to damage the He Family's reputation for a woman who does not care for you in the slightest?"

He Fei immediately hesitated.

He liked Zi Yi, but he could not possibly drag his family down.

Full of helplessness, he paced around in the middle of the night with no idea of what to do. All of a sudden, he received Ouyang Ming's phone call.

Ouyang Ming's voice sounded strange. "That woman has been trolled to such an extent over the net and you, who have had rumors with her before, aren't intending to come out to take a stand?"

He Fei was already upset and after he heard that, he growled. "What can I do? Yiyi has never liked me before and am I supposed to say I'm the person involved in that rumor with her?!"

Ouyang Ming remained silent for several seconds before he laughed. "Who told her to be so stuck up? She deserved it."

He Fei ground his teeth in anger. "Ouyang Ming!"

He coldly snorted. "Don't lose your temper at me. If you have the capability, find a way to resolve this issue. Doesn't she have her family members? Why don't you get Zi Xu to come out and clarify that those rumors are false."

He Fei's eyes brightened at his words. Why had he not thought of this?

Zi Xu just happened to be asleep, when he received a call from He Fei.

He had been working overtime until 1 a.m these days and suddenly received a call after having barely fallen asleep. He was so angry that he wanted to smash his mobile phone.

However, when he saw the caller ID, his mind immediately cleared up.

He quickly sat up and answered the call. "Fourth Young Master He, I wonder why you called me at this time?"

He Fei explained to him what was happening to Zi Yi. In the end, he added, "Right now, the only way to shut down those trolls on the net is for her family to come out and clarify for her. As her…"

"Fourth Young Master He, what did you just say?" Zi Xu did not hear what He Fei said at the end. He was preoccupied with the fact that Zi Yi had driven a flying racing car to help Elder Dou successfully reach the hospital.

He excitedly swallowed his saliva and said, "You said that… Zi Yi sent her Grandfather to the hospital? Then what is his condition right now? Did he get rescued?"

He Fei thought that he was worried about Elder Dou and so, he said, "I heard that Elder Dou is out of danger and has been transferred to the ICU ward. As long as he endures for 24 hours, he will be fine."

Zi Xu's heartbeat sped up.

In that case, his eldest daughter had received the Dou Family's forgiveness.

Since they had forgiven her, does it mean he only had to coax her and she would stand on his side again? It just so happens that his company is expanding recently. As long as he had the Dou Family's connections…

Thinking of this, Zi Xu could not sit still anymore. He immediately said to He Fei, "Yiyi is my daughter and how could I watch her get scolded on the net? You can rest assured that I will come out and make a stand at once."

Having said that, he lifted the quilt to get out of bed.

Li Peirong, who had woken up with him, pulled him back and reminded him. "Ah Xu, have you forgotten who Yiyi is hanging out with right now? Moreover, how did she treat you? Do you think she would be grateful if you stood out to support her? Perhaps she does not even need it at all."

Li Peirong's words were like a pot of cold water pouring over his head. His beating heart also instantly cooled down.

Li Peirong looked at Zi Xu's expression and breathed a sigh of relief. "As you know, Fourth Young Master He likes Yiyi very much and I honestly suspect he doesn't know that she is currently hanging out with a triad boss right now.

Moreover, since Yiyi has helped her grandfather, by right the Dou Family would have stepped out to speak for her. You should know how influential they are. Since Fourth Young Master He gave you a call, it means that the Dou Family did not come forward.

Therefore, can you guarantee that they will forgive Yiyi?"

Zi Xu's face turned livid and he directly went back to lie down.

Since he said he would not care if she was dead or alive, he would stay true to his words!

At 4 a.m in morning, Dou Jingning's phone suddenly rang.

He was currently standing guard outside the ICU. He had aged considerably after his father's fall and at the moment, he was staring into blank space in the direction of the door.

When his phone rang, it was Dou Zerui who stood beside him that called out to him, "Uncle, your phone is ringing."

Only then did Dou Jingning recover his senses. The moment he checked the caller's name, he was somewhat surprised.

Dou Zerui subconsciously cranked his neck to take a look.. He was also surprised to see the Caller ID. "Lu Jingye? Why is he calling you?"
