Reborn As Lucky Star

Li Fuhong didn't notice Jiao Lei's expression and the abrupt pause of her hand.

The more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

"Exactly, those people only criticize me because they don't know the truth. If I get Yue Qingqing to clarify, and reveal that it was all Zhuang Rouhui's doing, wouldn't the problem be solved?"

Jiao Lei hesitated, "Yue Qingqing probably won't agree, right."

Put yourself in her shoes—

The Yue Family and Yue Qingqing had been insulted for so long, and Li Fuhong never intended to clear things up.

But now that his own interests were at stake, he immediately went to Yue Qingqing.

Thinking about it, there was no way she would agree.

Yet Li Fuhong snorted, "I'm her father, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't even have a life. Besides, I haven't wronged her in any way, it's all that woman Zhuang Rouhui's fault."

Li Fuhong's words inexplicably made Jiao Lei uncomfortable.

No father means no child's life?

Mothers indeed bear children through ten months of pregnancy, but men merely contribute an X.

Li Fuhong had never given Yue Qingqing a single cent, so on what basis did he assume she would listen to him?

This made Jiao Lei think of her own alcoholic father, and she thought that Li Fuhong probably saw his son in the same way.

He never fulfilled much of his parental responsibilities, yet demanded gratitude from his children.

He never considered that children don't choose to be born.

Thinking as much, Jiao Lei, who followed a path of compliance, couldn't bring herself to speak up in opposition.

"You go book the flight tickets, we'll head to Beijing this afternoon."

Jiao Lei laughed coldly to herself, but on the surface, she obediently complied, preparing to call and book the tickets.

After the show ended, apart from the fickle media in reality changing their tune, the online opinions also shifted dramatically.

The follow-up plans prepared by Yu Mengyu and Jiang Hai were completely ineffective.

Yue Qingqing never intended to return to the Li Family; instead, she executed a stunning counterattack on the show.

They couldn't turn around and criticize Yue Qingqing for not acknowledging her roots, after all, anyone with eyes could see her original family was no good. Returning would be insane.

Jiang Hai scrolled through the forum messages one by one.

"Thinking about it, Yue Qingqing really has it tough. Fortunately, she's lucky. If she had been a little less fortunate, she'd be thrown into a family that treats girls like livestock before marriage, only to marry them off with a dowry at the right age. Her life would be ruined."

"In my hometown, there's such a girl. She's really pretty but was bullied from a young age. Her adoptive parents told her early on she was adopted, demanding she work like a mule for the family or be thrown out. This led to her being particularly insecure. When she grew up, they said she was getting married, but it was basically selling her to a man twenty years older."

"I hope after the official media speaks out, this situation improves."

"Not likely. Some people insist it's an ancient tradition, and many vested interests don't want it to change. We can only hope our generation works hard to treat children equally in the future."

There were also differing opinions; some believed Yue Qingqing was too heartless and should at least visit once.

Some said Yue Qingqing seems innocuous but is actually quite scheming, having dug pits for her biological parents long ago.

But as soon as these people voiced their opinions, they were quickly silenced by criticism.

Yue Qingqing had already suffered enough. Can being smart and knowing how to protect herself be wrong?

"Sigh, there's nothing that can be done about public opinion online now. Yue Qingqing's reputation isn't going to suffer in the short term."

Jiang Hai pointed to one of the comments to show Yu Mengyu.

"Half the people on the forum are using their keyboards to criticize Yue Qingqing's biological parents. I'm puzzled—does the other half not have keyboards?"

Yu Mengyu squinted, "It seems Yue Qingqing is quite fortunate."

Those with good fortune can always turn bad luck into good, finding light at the end of the tunnel.

Yue Qingqing evolving from an abandoned daughter to her current self clearly showed her Qi Fortune had surpassed ordinary imagination.

A determined look flashed in Yu Mengyu's eyes.

If she could absorb her fortune, her own Cultivation Base might see a significant boost.

Unfortunately, she couldn't act rashly for now; she needed to plan carefully.
