Mo Yu was afraid of Lin Song because Mo Yu was just a minor figure. Although he was known as the number one paparazzo in the entertainment industry, in the end, he had no solid backing.

But Chen Ningxue was different. After all, she was the Little Princess of the Chen Family. If Lin Song's plot to smear Chen Ningxue were to be exposed, the Chen Family would definitely not let it go without a fight!

"Do you have evidence?" Ling Feng said in a deep voice.

Mo Yu pulled out a voice recorder: "This is the recording of my conversation with Lin Song!"

Gazing at Ling Feng's astonished look, a trace of helplessness flashed across Mo Yu's face: "How could someone like us not have some means of self-protection?"

"I'll take this voice recorder!" Chen Ningxue said earnestly, "Mo Yu, thank you! But don't worry, with me here, Lin Song won't dare to do anything to you!"

"If I were worried about that, I wouldn't have spoken up!" Mo Yu let out a breath: "And I've also been going down the wrong path these years! If it hadn't been for my wife's awakening, I'm afraid I really would have gone astray!"

Chen Ningxue asked curiously, "Going down the wrong path?"

"My original intention of being a paparazzo was to be the Sword of Damocles for the stars, but my achievements over the years made me arrogant, and I started to believe that I had the power to influence the stars' paths! However, luckily I've come to my senses, for which I also have to thank you!"

Chen Ningxue's expression became solemn, and through Mo Yu's sincere words, she knew what Mo Yu was saying was true.

"If you really can do that, I admire you!" Chen Ningxue said sincerely, "Don't worry, Lin Song definitely wouldn't dare to take revenge on you, because he's not qualified!"

...

The next day, an explosive piece of news rocked the entertainment industry: the number one paparazzo Mo Yu, who had always claimed to speak with facts, publicly expressed his apologies to Chen Ningxue. He admitted that his previous statements were rumors and that someone had paid him to tarnish Chen Ningxue's name!

Additionally, Chen Ningxue's remarks from yesterday, after fermenting overnight, also caused a huge stir! Of course, it was a stir of infamy!

Huaxia people believe in the Doctrine of the Mean, appreciating subtle beauty. Even if their hearts are blooming with joy, their faces still need to maintain a modest smile, preferably adding that they fall far short, as if only in this way can they express their attitude!

But Chen Ningxue's public acknowledgment of her being a talent-based singer offended many, and her competitors also came forward to criticize her for not knowing her limits!

"What's this all about, singing a few songs and forgetting her own surname? Even those veteran singers aren't as arrogant as her!"

"After all, what does a singer who debuted less than ten years ago have to brag about being talent-based? If it weren't for her pretty face, who would listen to her music?"

"Exactly, singers like Qi Xin and Fenghua have never been this arrogant! I won't listen to her songs anymore; I'm afraid they'll contaminate my ears!"

Meanwhile, Ningxue's fans were stirred up online because what Chen Ningxue said was just too domineering!

"From 'Hometown' to 'I Don't Sing Love Songs', from 'Wings of Flight' to 'The Power of Dreams', from 'Monument' to 'Back View,' Chen Ningxue has always relied not on her stunning appearance but on her overflowing talent! In her singing, I can feel the loneliness of homesickness, the persistence of dreams, and the power of protection!

If such a person isn't considered talent-based, are those sentimental love song singers considered talent-based? Don't compare Qi Xin with our Sister Xue; let's see her compose and write her own songs first!"

"We've witnessed Sister Xue's growth every step of the way, and we've found strength in her singing! Go Sister Xue, you're the embodiment of true talent!"

"She could rely on her looks to get by, but instead she chose to rely on her talent. That's our Sister Xue, the one we will always support!"

...

Online true fans and haters were at each other's throats, while Chen Ningxue, the person at the center of it all, watched her father, Chen Zhendong, with dissatisfaction.

"Dad, what kind of attitude is this? Lin Song has been slandering me, and you're still protecting him. Am I even your real daughter?"

Chen Zhendong leisurely sipped his tea, "What's the rush! These are your grandfather's words! After all, Lin Song is one of the possible candidates for your to-be husband. What if your boyfriend is deceiving us? You might even have to marry Lin Song next year. It's not good to affect the relationship between our families over such trifles."

Ningxue's eyes widened in disbelief, "I never thought you'd stoop so low just to meet my boyfriend. Old ginger is spicier indeed, not sparing any opportunity to oppress and exploit!"

"Pfft!" Chen Zhendong nearly spat out his tea, completely ruining the image of a high-ranking military officer.

"You little brat, speaking the blunt truth!" Chen Zhendong wiped the tea from the corner of his mouth and scolded, "Who asked you to keep your boyfriend's name a secret? Isn't your grandfather just worried about you?"

"Worried about what? If I disclosed his name, his full details would be on your table within ten minutes!" Chen Ningxue said disdainfully, "Fine, you want to see my boyfriend, don't you? If I don't see Lin Song punished within three days, then I'll just never marry. Let's see who gets anxious then!"

Chen Zhendong was taken aback; he knew that Chen Ningxue was just being petulant, but he was still surprised that she dared to go back on her word and threaten her own father.

But considering the old man's firm criteria, he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll talk to the Lin Family right away, but don't forget, we need to see the guy in three days! Otherwise..."

"Hehe, I knew Daddy was the best!" Chen Ningxue's face instantly bloomed with a smile as she hugged Chen Zhendong's hand, "And don't forget to warn the Lin Family not to retaliate against Mo Yu. We owe him big time for this."

"I know!"

...

With a loud bang, a crystal ashtray was slammed onto the floor. Lin Song was breathing heavily, his eyes bloodshot with rage, "Very well, good for you Mo Yu, good for you Ling Feng, good for you Chen Ningxue! Do you really think I'll compromise so easily? Rest assured, I'll soon prepare a grand feast for you! I hope you have the appetite when the time comes!"

The door creaked open, and Feng Xin walked in, seeing the mess and frowning, "Little Song, I just received a call from the Chen Family... did you do something to Chen Ningxue?"

Lin Song looked at his mother with a cold indifference and sneered, "What now? Did the Chen Family give you any instructions?"

Feng Xin picked up the pieces at her feet and sighed, "Child, I know you're upset right now. Your situation with Chen Ningxue isn't completely hopeless. After the New Year, I will find a solution for you!"

Pointing to his injured leg, Lin Song scoffed, "Do you really think I still love Chen Ningxue? My only thought now is revenge, revenge for this leg!"
