Since Helian Yi arrived in Chunzhou, he has appeared several times on Chunzhou TV Station’s legal talk shows. His solid professional skills, coupled with a star-like charm and aura, quickly propelled him to fame. After opening his personal Weibo account, he amassed over a million followers within a short time, becoming a top influencer in the legal world.

As fans delved into his background and record of accomplishments, their admiration for him grew exponentially. Nowadays, the name Helian Yi has become synonymous with authority in the legal field.

Every time he posts on Weibo, he instantly sets off a wave of heated discussion, further reigniting already uncontrollable public discourse. This time, however, the situation reversed dramatically.

Suddenly, the isolated and helpless Lemons seemed to have found their pillar of strength overnight, flocking to Chongchong’s Weibo account and enthusiastically shouting out.

—— Admiring the master, such skills are beyond ordinary folks like us.

—— Wuwuwu, I misunderstood Chongchong earlier. I thought Chongchong had abandoned ship. Turns out she was preparing a major move.

—— This is a case of silence before the storm; when Chongchong speaks, she blows everyone away. Announcing today that I officially stan Chongchong for her skills.

—— Truly, Chongchong, you made me cry. Xianxian is lucky to have a fan like you.

—— Wow, Chongchong is incredible! She slapped the haters in the face and cleared my brother’s name. Satisfaction is an understatement!

—— Even Helian Yi himself showed up. Incredible, my Chong! Do you know what Helian Yi’s status in the legal industry is? [Smoking emoticon]

—— That Wen Yan little weasel... turns out he was the one doing shady stuff. Lemons, let’s go for it. If we don’t obliterate this conniving green tea, it means we’re incompetent.

—— My heart aches for my brother. Misunderstood for so long yet never defended himself once. His inner despair must be unimaginable.

Chongchong didn’t get carried away with her fans’ effusive praise. Soon after, she posted another sharp jab on Weibo: [@Entertainment Gossip Bird, although taking money to stir up hot topics is your usual deal as a marketing account, fabricating lies and defaming others is against the law. Apologize and cooperate—the courts might show leniency later. Otherwise, get ready to rot in jail.]

Entertainment Gossip Bird tried to resist one last time, stubbornly refusing to admit guilt.

But Chongchong quickly dropped the bombshell of WhatsApp chat logs and the transaction records of his linked bank account.

The chat logs clearly showcased how he and his "employer" conspired to fabricate rumors and harm Rong Xianning. Their malicious intent was laid bare for all to see.

Even though people were no strangers to the dubious practices of marketing accounts—often complaining about them verbally—this was the first time someone had exposed them so nakedly, stripping every last shred of their facade.

The reaction was both shocking and spine-chilling.

The entertainment world was shaken to its core.

"Entertainment Gossip Bird" had always been a ruthless blogger with millions of followers. Known for his snarky, venomous posts, he had leaked dirt on numerous celebrities, including A-listers. Many fans of these celebrities despised him yet couldn’t do anything to counter his influence.

This time, when he targeted Rong Xianning, no one initially thought much of it. Official source is nοvelfire.net

Firstly, although Rong Xianning had skyrocketed in popularity, he was still a newcomer with an unstable position in the industry. He hadn’t yet stirred up any conflict of interest with established stars.

Secondly, targeting hot topics was routine for "Entertainment Gossip Bird." People assumed he was just short on cash and decided to pull something against the latest popular figure to make the production team and his management pay up.

Up to this point, people found it pretty normal. The entertainment industry thrives on its ups and downs—celebrities rise and fall overnight. Rong Xianning’s plight seemed just like ordinary bad luck: getting slammed right after getting famous. A few years of laying low could provide a chance to bounce back since he was still young.

However, no one anticipated that Rong Xianning had a formidable fan who would drag every dirty secret lurking in the shadows into the light for all to see. Only when Helian Yi entered the scene did it truly dawn on everyone that something wasn’t right.

No wonder Rong Xianning, his agency, and the show’s production team remained so quiet initially. Turns out, they were deliberately fishing for evidence.

This time, the cocky "Entertainment Gossip Bird" finally hit a steel wall. People started to sense that this incident might lead to significant shifts in the entertainment world.

Under the heat of events, those nursing grudges seized the opportunity to act on them. Witnessing firsthand what "kick someone while they’re down" really means, they tore into the marketing account ruthlessly.

Seeing the tide turning against him, Wu Wei, the man behind "Entertainment Gossip Bird," promptly called the agency on the phone.
