CHAPTER 464: CHAPTER 464: IT’S EASY TO TALK WHEN YOU’RE NOT IN PAIN

Lin Fan publicly deleted the video, giving up a deadly move!

Such a great move could basically kill the opponent with one hit!

However, Lin Fan disdained using this move.

Using one’s own methods against them is certainly satisfying. If the target was Feng Tianming, Lin Fan wouldn’t hesitate at all, but now the target is a young girl, which changes things.

"Since Mr. Lin doesn’t plan to use this move, why did he collect her dark history?"

Someone questioned.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Because I want Young Master Feng to know that people are different. A person can choose to be human or a beast. Young Master Feng has no moral bottom line, so he chose to be a beast, wantonly smearing and harming an innocent girl. But I chose to be human, and such despicable means, are better left unused."

These words were impassioned and righteous, simply the light of justice.

Everyone kowtowed, and for a moment, they admired Mr. Lin’s magnanimity profoundly.

"Mr. Lin’s outlook is truly vast!"

"Mr. Lin is radiant!"

"Compared to Mr. Lin, Feng Tianming is just a gutter rat!"

"I kneel to Mr. Lin; from now on, I’m a fan girl of Mr. Lin."

Being called a gutter rat, Feng Tianming was furious; although he indeed was a gutter rat, being exposed was still hurtful to his self-esteem, and he felt particularly aggrieved. Wasn’t he just trying to defeat Lin Fan!

His family taught him to be unscrupulous in achieving his goals since childhood.

After the initial anger, Feng Tianming suddenly burst into laughter.

It made everyone curious about what he was laughing at.

"Lin Fan, you had a chance to defeat me, but you insist on being a moral saint; what a fool, simply too foolish, so don’t blame me!" Feng Tianming laughed.

"As the saying goes, only those free of poison are not true men. Lin Fan, you’re ultimately too kind-hearted and can’t achieve greatness! You voluntarily gave up this opportunity; you’re destined for total defeat. Get ready with the 100 million cash!"

Hearing this, everyone was somewhat filled with righteous indignation.

This Feng Tianming is really shameless. Mr. Lin doesn’t stoop to his vile level, yet he has the audacity to mock Mr. Lin, as if wanting everyone to be as despicable as he is!

However, Feng Tianming’s words did cut deep. Although Mr. Lin is indeed noble, this certainly lessens their chances of winning, and Ning Xiaoyue might really lose.

Lin Fan, however, remained calm and said, "The result hasn’t come out yet, so Young Master Feng doesn’t need to be in such a hurry. Take it slowly."

Young Master Feng sneered, "You just pretend to be calm. Soon, I’ll make you want to cry without tears!"

While they were talking, the program had already started.

This episode of the program was the finals, live broadcast, and what the outcome would be, no one knew yet.

Feng Tianming watched the program, constantly monitoring the internet, still somewhat worried that dirt on his A-Class Player might suddenly erupt online.

He didn’t feel at ease with Lin Fan. Although Lin Fan verbally promised not to expose, who knew if Lin Fan would suddenly unleash a trump card unexpectedly.

Feng Tianming’s worries were unnecessary. Lin Fan indeed kept his word and did not expose the dirt.

Feng Tianming finally relaxed, feeling quite smug, secretly cursing that Lin Fan was really an idiot, having such a powerful move yet choosing not to use it, truly foolish!

The dirt on the A-Class Player wasn’t exposed, but Ning Xiaoyue was being cursed online again.

It turned out that the finals process included singing and dancing performances, and Ning Xiaoyue’s performance was very poor, unable to keep pace.

As a result, the topic of Ning Xiaoyue being offbeat quickly soared to the top of trending searches, swiftly occupying first place.

Due to the high attention on this final, it didn’t take long for Ning Xiaoyue’s topic to explode.

Netizens started madly cursing again.

"Three months in, and she hasn’t improved at all!"

"Still offbeat, really absurd!"

"This useless person better not debut!"

"She probably can’t debut, right? Last week, she dropped to seventh place."

"I see she’s losing fans, definitely can’t debut this time."

Despite Ning Xiaoyue’s fans trying hard to explain that Ning Xiaoyue’s foundation was too poor, coupled with a lack of talent in singing and dancing, making significant progress in three months was virtually impossible.

But these voices were drowned by netizens’ taunts.

Seeing these taunts, Feng Tianming laughed gleefully.

"Lin Fan, do you still not admit your failure now! Ning Xiaoyue is just a piece of trash, the internet is all cursing her, how could she possibly debut! This trending topic isn’t bought by me, nor did I buy any cyber troops; it’s purely initiated by netizens," Feng Tianming gloated.

Everyone from Wenyue Company remained silent.

Although Feng Tianming was unpleasant, none of them could argue back.

In many people’s eyes, being lousy is the original sin.

Speaking of singing and dancing skills alone, Ning Xiaoyue indeed isn’t good; this has been Ning Xiaoyue’s greatest weakness, and competitors have exploited this weakness too many times since the competition.

The company and fans have never been able to argue back.

They can only explain repeatedly that this program doesn’t only evaluate vocal and dance skills, it’s essentially about popularity, where a person’s merits aren’t solely reflected in singing and dancing, but also in looks and personality, where each contestant attracts fans based on their own merits, as if the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their special skills.

But in terms of effect, netizens didn’t buy it, blindly cursing Ning Xiaoyue as if it was a righteous act, holding nothing back, feeling as if they suddenly grew taller and became embodiments of justice.

It’s like a network festivity, the sharp edge of words sparing not a bit of mercy for a girl just 20 years old.

Seeing everyone silent, Feng Tianming became more triumphant: "What’s wrong, turned mute after being hit by my words, right? Someone like Ning Xiaoyue shouldn’t debut, her failure is actually a relief, she doesn’t have to put up with curses anymore, you should be happy for her. Though someone won’t be happy, having to soon lose a billion, ha-ha..."

While speaking, Feng Tianming looked towards Lin Fan with a mocking gaze.

Lin Fan chuckled, "Feng Tianming, you really are an idiot."

Feng Tianming’s face fell, "What did you say?"

Lin Fan said, "You really speak carelessly without knowing the pain of poverty. I believe you’ve already dug up everything about Ning Xiaoyue, even down to her ancestors; you should know Xiaoyue’s family have been farmers for generations, impoverished, and Xiaoyue, to save her father from further burden, dropped out very early to work, having done many low-level jobs. Without an accident, she might never achieve a leap in social class in this life, forever trapped at the bottom."

"But there happened to be this accident, this talent show. If she can debut, she’ll live a better life than before. If she fails, she returns to the bottom. To her, it’s a battle with no retreat. Yet you’re saying her failure is a relief? You were born into a Rich Second Generation, with abundant comforts, what would you know of the desires of ordinary people from the lower class?"

"As long as she can debut, what’s a few curses? She doesn’t steal, doesn’t rob, all relying on the program’s rules for a win. Those who curse her are merely a crowd of blind, cyber warriors incapable of independent thought, only able to indulge in collective revelry—pay no mind to the nonsense of keyboard warriors!"
