Scum Male's Whitewashing Manual Chapter 48

Yu Baobao is a food broadcaster, because she is cute and sweet, and has a soft and cute personality. She has gained a lot of fans and can be regarded as a small internet celebrity.

(TNote: live broadcaster is the equivalent of a youtuber in China, but they have many different sites for it. So, the term youtuber that refers to the broadcasting site in their job description is rarely used. And they mostly do it live.)

She would drive a car with the camera on, looking for delicious small shops everywhere, give the audience a live broadcast of her food, and then explain her evaluation of it.

Yu Baobao has more fans than any other foodie, because she never does advertis.e.m.e.nts and it has been more than half a year since she graduated. Yu Baobao successfully bought a villa worth 30 million in the upscale area.

3 hundred thousand of it is her own savings, and the remaining 29.7 million is sponsored by her ‘real estate boss' father.

Fans all know why Yu Baobao bought a villa here. It's said that it was because the Movie Emperor Qi Zhongjie lives here. Yu Baobao is a loyal fan of Qi Zhongjie. in order to meet her idol, she bought the villa at a high price.

Over the past two days, Yu Baobao, who has always been full of vitality and a happy smile on her face, had been in a low mood. She used to eat bowls of instant noodles live, but she now never did. Fans who follow her microblog all know that Yu Baobao's cat has been missing.

It was an orange cat that was picked up by Yu Baobao before it has even weaned. She nursed with a syringe with great care and extreme caution. It fell ill numerous times in the middle of her care for it, and it almost died. She kept going to the hospital.

Because when he was a small kitten, he was thin and had no meat all over his body, Yu Baobao specially named him Xiao Pan, hoping that he would become round and fat.

(Tnote: Xiao Pan [小胖] = Little Fatty. 胖 [pan] means ‘chubby/fat'.)

This is the first cat raised by Yu Baobao. She has to get up every two hours in the middle of the night to feed it milk. She is always scared and afraid of taking a nap. What if the small orange cat, which is so weak that its breathing hardly fluctuates, leave forever? Countless times the Doctor had said that he couldn't be saved. She held the still breathing cat and wept.

She had never suffered before and was brought up showered with blessings. She lived happily in the cradle her parents built for her. For the first time, Yu Baobao knew what responsibility was.

These things would break the will of any ordinary girl, but Yu Baobao is different. At that time, she already had tens of thousands of yuan a month from her live broadcast, coupled with her parents' insistence on giving pocket money, there was no financial pressure. She still struggled to save Xiao Pan.

In the fifth month after Xiao Pan was picked up by Yu Baobao, he started eating and drinking well, sleeping in the sun every day, not to mention his spoiled life. And sure enough, he was as fat as a ball.

Yu Baobao knew that cats were unruly, so she never took Xiao Pan out of the house. She only shows Xiao Pan to the audience when she cooks and eats at home. Although it wasn't frequent, Xiao Pan, who had a round face and watched by the audience, is still deeply loved by the audience and is as popular as a budding blogger.

Just as life gradually became more comfortable, Xiao Pan disappeared.

He usually likes to stroll in the garden, but because Yu Baobao keeps the surrounding walls high, as a fat cat, Xiao Pan can't get out. Of course, she would happily let him wander.

However, two hours after Xiao Pan went missing, Yu Baobao found a hole in the wall. This hole is too small for human beings, but for a cat …

Yu Baobao began to worry. She quickly printed leaflets and used her fan network to find Xiao Pan on the Internet. The longer a cat is lost, the farther it is away from home. One minute earlier is one more chance to find him.

But with everything she had done, Xiao Pan was still missing.

At the thought of how Xiao Pan, who is not as clever as an average cat because of how he was raised by her since he was a kitten, will be treated outside in the cold winter, Yu Baobao felt bad.

How could she still have the mood to do a live broadcast now. Even though Yu Baobao was pampered since childhood, she was still distributing leaflets and looked around for a cat every day. After walking around in the community complex for a short while, she met a man wearing black clothes and a mask, who came out of the villa gate not far away from her home. Yu Baobao hurriedly stepped forward. “h.e.l.lo, sir, excuse me. I'm your neighbor. My cat is lost, its body is orange, its four legs are white, and it is relatively fat. have you seen it?”

“No.” She couldn't see the man's face clearly, but his voice was very impatient. After answering, he immediately left, looking like he was in a hurry.

Yu Baobao watched the man's shadow fade away before she could even thank him. She wondered why the man looked so familiar, clearly, she didn't even see his face.

Just as she continued to look for the cat, Wei Mingyan and Song Qi officially announced their relations.h.i.+p.

When Wei Mingyan and Song Qi made their love affair public, Qi Zhongjie was. .h.i.t the hardest. In the first hour after Wei Mingyan posted to his Weibo, some netizens found the evidence that there had always been contradictions between the two.

And just two and a half months ago, they had an argument in public and almost killed each other. In the month after the argument, Wei Mingyan had not been active on the Internet except for the news of saving a dog in the hospital.

Although these two things weren't connected, Qi Zhongjie was certainly lying without even blinking.

If nothing bad happened to Wei Mingyan in the last news, Qi Zhongjie's remarks were unimportant. But since he said such a thing at such a sensitive time, it's clear that he was slandering Wei Mingyan. As long as Wei Mingyan one-sidedly forced the actress to come out, even if he had just rescued her, he would be criticized.

[Qi Zhongjie scheming so hard! Unfathomable can't even describe it, it's more appropriate to describe it as a black hole…]

[I think he is rather silly. He didn't look at the matter this time. Whether it was Wei Mingyan's side or Song Qi's side, the entertainment circle of friends from both sides didn't reply. Just waiting for the next development. But Qi Zhongjie, who had nothing to do with them, did.

Speaking of which, he must have enmity with Wei Mingyan, otherwise why would he take such risks?]

[The comment above me makes sense. I liked Qi Zhongjie very much before, but I didn't think he was this kind of a person.]

Just when Qi Zhongjie's reputation plummeted, the water army that he had found in a hurry finally got on the line.

(TNote: reminder– water army = paid commenter/posters, usually paid to direct the tide of opinion online.)

[Tell me, do you really believe Wei Mingyan and Song Qi are in love? The two didn't know each other before, okay?]

[Yes, didn't Qi Zhongjie speak out before Wei Mingyan? And when Qi Zhongjie spoke out, Wei Mingyan so suddenly exposed his love affair? People also said that Qi Zhongjie was very scheming, or was it Wei Mingyan who wanted us to think too much. He waited for somebody else to come forward before being exposed, what is he plotting?]

[No, from beginning to end–what does it have to do with Qi Zhongjie? Before he opened his mouth, he jumped out as excitedly like a flea and said that the two never talked. Did he clearly say that Wei Mingyan forced that kiss?]

[Ha ha… anyway, even if people say that Wei Mingyan and Song Qi are really together, I 100% won't believe it. The difference between the two is too vast, how is it possible?]

[If a celebrity said it, who would dare to believe it? 80% of these things are made up for the sake of the public relations. Otherwise, people could see their behavior this past month, they weren't even familiar with each other before the show, how could they fall in love? In a dream?]

When there was another uproar on the Internet, someone suddenly broke the news.

—— Stormy's owner is not Wei Mingyan, but Song Qi.

Before others could question him, the informant threw out the evidence first.

It was a video of a yellow dog coming ash.o.r.e from the lake, with a soaked kitten in its mouth. Some people stopped around the lake to watch. In front of the yellow dog, a woman who wrapped herself up was anxiously shouting the dog's name.

“Stormy, hurry up—”

In the video, the woman wearing a mask hurriedly pulled her dog up. The yellow dog spat out the kitten and began to shake its fur, splas.h.i.+ng water all over the place.

There were cheers around. The video was very short and stopped after the yellow dog shaked its fur.

After the informant released the evidence, he released another screenshot. [This was taken by me five years ago when a kitten fell into the lake and struggled to get to sh.o.r.e. At that time, the dog in the video rescued the kitten in the water. After comparison, the woman wearing the mask was confirmed to be Song Qi. Friends who feel that it's not, can compare it.

In the video, you can clearly hear her voice calling Stormy. I posted it in a circle of friends the day after I took the picture. The screenshot shows the time. This circle of friends would never have remembered it if my friend hadn't reminded us. But after watching it several times, I can basically be sure that Song Qi knew Stormy five years ago.]

Wei Mingyan had not made his debut 5 years ago. So, the chance that the two knew each other for 5 years could be overturned, so there was only one conclusion.

Song Qi is Stormy's real owner.

These two people have been cheating on their fans for a long time!

At the same time, Yu Baobao was holding the cat flyer in her hand and walking home dejectedly. When she walked to the door of a closed house, she suddenly remembered the man who was in a hurry and how she couldn't see his face clearly.

By chance, she shouted her dear pet's name, “Fatty …”

“Fatty…”

The villa was too large, and it was quite a distance from her house. Even though Yu Baobao shouted loudly, Xiao Pan should not have heard of it either. However, curling in the room, the blood-covered cat seemed to hear the voice of its owner. Suddenly, he shook himself and struggled to get up. He opened his mouth and tried to make a sound.

“…”

No matter how hard it tried, its vocal cords were cut off and no sound would come out.

“Fatty, where are you …”

Yu Baobao wiped away her tears, looked at the closed door in despair, and turned to leave.

She must never give up! He is so fat and cute! He must be somewhere nearby, waiting for her to find him!

Inside the room, the orange cat, which was so covered in blood you could hardly see the original color, was lying on its belly. Bleeding, it slowly moved towards the doorway, little by little.

It opens its mouth.

“…”

This was a call for help, but its owner can no longer hear it.
