The Host is Clearly A Scumbag (Quick Travel)

After learning the news that the Ordinary Little Artist was going to start a livestream, netizens speculated a lot about his identity, profession, the setting he'd appear in, and how he'd present himself.

After two days of online frenzy, the public opinion had become overwhelmingly one-sided.

There are fewer and fewer people standing up for the Ordinary Little Artist, as anyone who dared defend him was immediately shouted down.

At this time, he wants to start a livestream, is it to clarify? Or to admit his mistakes?

If it was the former, what evidence could he possibly have to prove his innocence?

Everyone was curious.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yu had made thorough preparations.

Even if the Ordinary Little Artist's sudden livestream announcement at 5 PM on Weibo had disrupted his plans, Xiao Yu wasn't someone to be trifled with.

His army of trolls was ready. The moment the Ordinary Little Artist appeared, a tidal wave of slander would drown him, leaving him no chance to recover.

The only way for the Xiao Family's business to survive was to cement the Ordinary Little Artist's reputation as a plagiarist. Whether the Xiao Family can come back to life depends on this time.

Soon, the livestream screen lit up, blindingly bright at first, forcing viewers to squint.

When the camera was adjusted, everyone realized the Ordinary Little Artist was streaming outdoors.

In the distance, there are towering mountains and layered peaks.

In the near distance, there is a group of busy people.

Some are filming, some are hanging on wires, some are setting up the stage, and there are several people in costumes in the distance.

'Where is this?'

Netizens' curiosity was immediately aroused, and they became even more curious about the identity of the Ordinary Little Artist.

Just as the audience was growing restless, a calm, soothing voice spoke:

"Wait a minute, let me take off my costume first."

The voice was very nice!

It was like a cool breeze, instantly extinguishing the frustration of waiting.

With a voice like that, he could make them wait all day.

In less than two minutes, Mingting, with his long hair tied up and only wearing a simple white shirt, appeared in the camera. Immediately, someone screamed in the comments: "IT'S IMMORTAL BROTHER!"

Mingting adjusted the camera to frame himself properly:

"It's miscalculation on my part. I thought I could start the live stream at 5 PM sharp. I just got off the wirework, so I kept everyone waiting. My apologies."

The high-definition camera captured Mingting's flawless face in extreme close-up. The fans of his looks had forgotten what they were watching the livestream for today, and they were so excited that they flooded the chat with excited screams.

For them, real-life footage was the best gift.

Moreover, the Immortal Brother was even more handsome in person, with an incredible aura!

Back when Mingting's photos became popular on the Internet, some people had sniped that they must have been photoshopped.

Now, the truth spoke for itself.

'But, how did the Immortal Brother become the Ordinary Little Artist?'

"Now I finally understand what the phrase 'radiant as the spring moon over willow trees' means!"

"One minute! I want all the information of the Immortal Brother, and I want his contact information!"

"No need to apologize, big brother! I waited for you willingly…"

"Senior brother, look at me! I'll pick up garbage to support you!"

Not long after, amid the flood of comments from his fans, a remark appeared: "You can't plagiarize even if you are good-looking!"

Soon more comments attacking Mingting poured in.

Mingting chuckled, pressed his index finger to his lips, and made a 'shh' gesture, "Quiet, please!"

Perhaps his fans were telepathically aligned, as they immediately stopped spamming the chat. The screen was now filled with comments like 'Plagiarizing dog, get lost!!'.

Mingting wasn't angered by this.

He adjusted into a comfortable sitting position, and his deep brown peach-blossom eyes looked at the camera, as if he's looking straight at Xiao Yu and Shi Yunyun on the other side.

"Hello everyone, I am the Ordinary Little Artist. I've been filming in the mountains recently and only found out about the incident this morning."

Mingting smiled, without any panic on his face.

"The reason why I only showed up at this time is because I've been waiting for someone."

"Shi Yunyun, Xiao Yu, I thought you'd recognize your mistakes and apologize to me. I gave you the chance, waiting for that apology call until 5 PM."

"But in the end, I was very disappointed."

They say the eyes are the windows to the soul, and these eyes spoke volumes.

At this moment, the profound disappointment in those mesmerizing peach-blossom eyes was palpable to everyone watching.

"Xiao Yu, you've spent a lot of money on hiring the Internet trolls, didn't you? Do you really think stepping on me will bring the Xiao Corporation back to life?"

"As a former classmate, I'll give you some advice: Before the Xiao Corporation goes bankrupt, hire a good lawyer!"

"As for those loudmouthed influencers and rumor-spreading netizens, congratulations on getting the first court summons in your life!"

Originally, everyone had been eagerly devouring the drama, waiting for Mingting to present evidence and engage in a fierce showdown, as that was how battles were supposed to be fought.

But in the end… 'That was it???'

'Just a few breezy threats, and that was enough to clear his name?'

Before netizens could analyze the information hidden in Mingting's words, someone couldn't help but shout: "HOLY SH*T, GO CHECK WEIBO!!!"

On Weibo, Mr. Gu of Mingyue Group, who usually only posted about his wife and the flowers she grew, had, for the first time ever, @'d the 'Ordinary Little Artist' with just two words: "My son."

Immediately afterwards, the young Mr. Gu, a workaholic who hadn't updated his Weibo in ages, also @'d the Ordinary Little Artist, "Little brother, big brother won't let you suffer any grievances."

That alone would have been shocking enough.

But then, Mr. Shen, the CEO of Zhengheng Group, posted an angry emoji @'ing Ordinary Little Artist, "Son-in-law, who bullied you?"

In response to Mr. Shen's protective attitude, the official Weibo of Zhengheng Group followed up with a string of smiling emojis and a firm declaration: "Our family's son-in-law, the legal team is ready."

The official Weibo of Mingyue Group was even more direct. They @'ing Xiao Yu and Shi Yunyun with two domineering words: "Just wait."
