Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Xia Weibao, You Owe Us an Explanation
She took drugs, was promiscuous, hyped herself up, became a mistress, pulled rank.
Each scandal was like a needle, piercing the hearts of fans who once adored her madly.
It was love turned to hate.
The more they had adored her, the more they hated her when the scandals broke.
It wasn’t that there weren’t doubts about the truth of the scandals, but the evidence was right there.
Xia Weibao had not offered a single explanation at that time, not a single post on her Weibo, even if they didn’t want to believe, they could find no reason to stand firm.
If it was all false, why was she completely silent?
What they didn’t know was that when the scandal broke, the company silenced Xia Weibao’s Weibo account to prevent her from making things worse with her comments.
With all her avenues of retreat cut off, she couldn’t even issue a statement.
Her Majesty the Empress was scrolling through Weibo while munching on chicken feet.
The internet was unusually quiet tonight, as if everyone was struggling.
The fluctuations in her Weibo followers were bizarrely erratic.
They would increase for a bit, then drop off.
Then increase again, only to drop once more.
She could even imagine the countless people on their phones hitting ‘follow’, hesitating, and then unfollowing in their indecision.
Somehow speechless.
Was hitting ‘follow’ such an ordeal that it required as much consideration as a life-changing decision?
She hated this kind of dilly-dallying behavior, where people were not resolute at all.
Wanting to be a fan, yet not daring to commit.
What she didn’t know was that at this very moment, a group of people were caught in an immense struggle.
These were her former fans, her die-hard supporters.
The scandal from three years ago had deeply wounded their hearts, and Weibao’s subsequent mental breakdown and hospital admittance had left them utterly disappointed.
They had already decided not to be her fans anymore.
But now she had returned with a high profile, shining brighter with each day.
Outdoing herself with each appearance, dazzling more with each performance.
The heart that had once adored her was coming back to life.
Yet the events of the past still plagued them.
They couldn’t believe that the idol they had loved for so long could be so disgraceful!
Weibao was completely unaware of the struggles of these loyal fans.
At that moment, she was still munching on chicken feet while playing a game, occasionally checking on the online trends.
Just as she finished a pack of chicken feet, a topic silently rose to the top of the trending list.
#XiaWeibao, you owe us an explanation.#
This was the voice of the fans.
You owe us all, an explanation.
We once loved you so much, we lifted you to the skies.
But in the end, you delivered us a hard slap!
That video, those scandals, they were like hideous faces, mocking our former blindness!
How we could have been fans of someone so contemptible.
You went mad and were hospitalized, and those of us who were your true fans suffered as well!
You disappeared for three years, and now you’re back.
With such fanfare, yet so heartless and so carefree.
Our hearts as fans are aflutter, yet you remain silent about the past.
It’s as if you never cared about how we felt.
Countless topics emerged, all clamoring for her to give an explanation.
For some reason, seeing the trending topic and the comments below, Xia Weibao’s eyes suddenly reddened.
Opening up her own Weibo, she found it had already exploded.
Familiar but long-silent accounts were all surfacing.
All of these were her former loyal fans!
But after her scandal, they had all disappeared.
And now, suddenly, they were reappearing.
