There are so many people; I really feel embarrassed. Being slapped in the face all day long, can it get any worse?
The simple onlookers with their snacks feel today’s series of revelations is overwhelming, but they don’t want it to stop! There’s never too much drama!
Rong Yi didn’t plan to stop either, because he felt that just this wouldn’t fully showcase how impressive his family really was.
The environment now is much more open than before. At least his parents and uncles no longer need to be unsung heroes for decades. However, many of their projects are still confidential and can’t be disclosed.
But the greatness of the Rong family isn’t just written by one generation. These stories accompanied Rong Yi throughout his growth, engraved in his bones as an indelible pride. So he continued.
This time, he started telling stories from his ancestors, listing how many top scholars and officials came from the Rong family. Throwing up these records felt particularly impressive to Rong Yi.
Then came the most thrilling stories from a turbulent era, about how the Rong family members reunited in a nation awaiting rejuvenation. Many had better options but chose to return.
Rong Yi typed rapidly. Though he wasn’t talented in literature, the names he listed were familiar from textbooks or largely unknown, but they all shared one thing: they dedicated their lives to the country’s growth.
Even close relatives couldn’t see each other for decades; such sacrifices are unimaginable to many but truly existed.
After a burst of excitement, Rong Yi realized he had raised the bar too high and hadn’t included himself!
Rong Yi couldn’t help but mutter, “I’m awesome too…”
But these were all stories of his elders. Adding himself abruptly wouldn’t fit well, and besides, showcasing his expertise would expose his identity!
Rong Yi decided to brag about his brother instead!
Admin: In comparison, Rong Jin seems the least impressive, merely winning all domestic best actor awards and several international A-list film festival awards.
After posting this, Rong Yi admired his work, feeling the thrill of showing off, which never gets old!
The crowd munching on their snacks had already dropped their jaws. Was Rong Jin from such an impressive family? Oh my God!
Rong Yi felt their reactions weren’t enough. He continued, posting Rong Jin’s past achievements. His award history was dazzling, and many realized then that Rong Jin’s fame wasn’t just hype; he wasn’t just a pretty face—his professional skills were top-notch.
Rong Yi posted not only Rong Jin’s award records but also his schooling details. Since his sister-in-law attended a legendary elite school, Rong Yi felt his brother couldn’t be left behind!
Rong Jin didn’t follow the typical path of elementary, middle, and high school. He was preparing to skip to middle school before finishing elementary, then skipped to high school from middle school, and didn’t complete high school either, directly advancing to a university’s special youth class.
After two years in the youth class, at sixteen, Rong Jin started making waves.
Back then, the internet wasn’t as developed. After debuting, Rong Jin went to film school and later earned a Ph.D., gaining significant attention. Previously, when he didn’t mention it, others thought he was ordinary. Who knew there was more to his story?
It’s not that no one tried to dig into Rong Jin’s privacy, nor were there no former classmates revealing snippets, but lacking concrete evidence, these revelations seemed like fans’ exaggerations, lacking credibility.
Later, Rong Jin’s low profile made it harder to find material on him, leading entertainment reporters to give up.
Now that everything was out, many realized those old stories about Rong Jin skipping grades were true!
After organizing his brother’s records, Rong Yi understood why their dad was so displeased with Rong Jin. It was truly…
Someone voiced what he felt: “Damn, I don’t know if Rong Jin should continue to shine in the film industry or follow the family tradition for the nation!”
“Outstanding people will excel in any field…”
“Mom asked why I was kneeling in front of my computer, crying. Why was the creator so biased?”
Admin: So, do you think these two are well-matched now?
The crowd felt speechless. The idea that Rong Jin needed to cling to anyone now seemed ridiculous.
Rong Yi read the witty comments and smirked.
Admin: Speechless now? One is from a super-rich family, the other from a noble lineage. Do you think they’re a match now?
Something felt off about this, and some sensitive people sensed it.
Rong Yi straightforwardly asked: You realize you were led by the nose before, but what about now?
Admin: How many people believed the rumors about Chi Feiran being kept as a sugar baby before? Why? Because someone gave you key phrases: young, good-looking star, middle-aged man, luxury goods, club, dinner parties, etc., and you all got misled. This happened because of Chi Feiran’s background, which made it impossible for him to be kept. But what if it was a celebrity with an average background? Would that mean they must be kept?
This statement left many people silent because it was true.
Although they had gained much joy from the entertainment industry—TV dramas, songs, variety shows, all of which conveyed positive energy—in their subconscious, their impression of the industry was that it’s a messy world, filled with unspoken rules.
Scandals and gossip always draw attention. A star being kept? When they heard it, they weren’t surprised at all. Oh, the entertainment industry, stars, it’s all like that.
But… is it really?
Admin: If it weren’t Chi Feiran being talked about today, the person would carry the stigma of being kept for life. After today, you might not even care about this person anymore. Maybe one day, in a conversation, you’ll mention, “He seemed to be kept once.”
Many wanted to argue that it wasn’t true! But deep down, they knew it might be.
Yes, it would be. With the sheer volume of information online, one day you read news about this star, the next day, a new show recommendation. Once a story passes, who continues to care about the follow-up?
What they remember might just be the fleeting headline, “So-and-so was kept.” That’s it.
Maybe one day they’ll see a clarification, but by then, they’ll think it was the media’s fault for writing nonsense.
Admin: As for Rong Jin, if he weren’t from a prestigious family like the Rong family, would he be unworthy of being with Chi Feiran?
Rong Yi felt he chose his words well. “Being with” could mean friends or lovers! So clever!
This question made many people silent. The question wasn’t hard to answer, but they couldn’t deny that when they saw Chi Feiran’s background revealed, and all the guiding comments, they really felt that Rong Jin’s glory dimmed instantly.
The feeling that “Oh, he also needs to cling to someone” lingered in their minds.
Now, being singled out by this blogger, they realized how serious the issue was.
Good backgrounds mean no need to be kept, no need to cling to others. How scary is this notion? And they, as ordinary people, still thought that way…
Now, the people being smeared had the ability to clarify, with solid backing. But what about those without such strength?
They came for gossip, but now a bucket of cold water sobered them up. The truth made them feel ironic.
Admin: Many are probably pondering this issue right now. Hopefully, you don’t just brush it off. Life is long, and there will be much more gossip in the future. I hope those reading this will always remember today.
Admin: Also, to those fans hurting others in the name of love, I truly feel sorry for the ones you love. It’s so sad.
Rong Yi felt the moral lesson had gone far enough. He refreshed the feed and, sure enough, saw entertainment companies involved in the attack had issued official statements. They were filled with platitudes, throwing around “legal action” to scare people.
Rong Yi sneered. If they didn’t say anything, it might be better, but issuing such statements was asking to be slapped in the face.
The drama wasn’t over yet, but Chi Feiran and Rong Jin were no longer concerned about its development. They were writing cards to send to the girl with the ID who had attempted suicide.
They didn’t write anything too emotional, just simple well wishes, hoping she would find happiness and peace in the future, without revealing their relationship.
However, their signatures were side by side, the strokes interwoven, looking unexpectedly intimate.
