Chapter 712: Counterattacking Against the Black Forces
The situation continued to escalate, and more and more people began to point out the irrationality of the matter.
Despite the scandal having caused such a stir back then, Xia Weibao and Xu Jiayang kept silent.
Breaking a non-disclosure agreement would at most cost money in compensation, and Xia Weibao was no fool.
As for Xu Jiayang, was it possible that he watched an A-list actress get blacklisted and did nothing out of selfishness? Hardly imaginable.
If really possible, how cold-blooded could this person be!
The criticism grew harsher until finally, someone claiming to be a friend of Xu Jiayang outside the circle spoke up.
"As an outsider, I didn’t want to meddle in the trivial matters of the entertainment industry, but I can’t bear to watch this anymore. Is it Ah Yang’s wish not to speak up for Xia Weibao? He’s in no position to protect even himself."
Typically, a post by an outsider with only a few hundred followers wouldn’t have much impact.
But as Xia Weibao’s case boiled over, Xu Jiayang was thrust into the eye of the storm, and everything related to him came under close scrutiny.
So it was "coincidental" that a certain influencer spotted the friend’s Weibo post and reshared it.
Now, the number of people paying attention increased.
Is it Ah Yang’s wish not to speak up for Xia Weibao? He’s in no position to protect even himself.
This sentence carried a lot of information.
Could it mean that there was more to Xu Jiayang’s silence on Xia Weibao’s truth back then?
Everyone got excited and started their detective work.
In less than an hour, another Weibo marketing account dropped a bombshell!
"You won’t believe it until you dig into it, and what a shock it is. It turned out that three years ago when Xia Weibao had her incident, Xu Jiayang mysteriously disappeared for a month, and only reappeared after she went mad and was admitted to a mental hospital.
So the question arises, where was Xu Jiayang during that time? Was his disappearance voluntary, or was there another reason?
Combining this with his friend’s statement, it’s terribly frightening."
Once this Weibo post was released, the netizens exploded once again.
——Does the blogger mean to say that Xu Jiayang was kidnapped during those three years?
——I think it’s highly possible, and even if it wasn’t kidnapping, he must have been threatened.
——Yes, especially since Xu Jiayang also got blacklisted from the entertainment circle at the same time and faded out of public view, making it easy for someone to do something to him without attention.
——So, are we saying someone intentionally took Xu Jiayang away during that time to prevent him from standing up for Xia Weibao?
The online world was bubbling with theories and detective work from the netizens.
However, these were just their speculations, lacking persuasiveness.
The only thing that could be confirmed was that Xu Jiayang indeed disappeared during that time.
His family, friends, and neighbors had all been interviewed by reporters and confirmed it.
But where he had gone remained unknown.
Therefore, the netizens were skeptical about the whole affair until someone dug up a Weibo post by Xu Jiayang from three years back...
Director Xu Jiayang V: Suddenly realized, being able to live well is the greatest fortune.
And the time this message was posted was exactly the day after Xia Weibao was admitted to the mental hospital!
According to the neighbors, that was also the day he returned home.
Being able to live well is the greatest fortune, which clearly reflected an appreciation for life.
And such a sentiment surely followed a life-threatening event!
Now, the netizens who had been half-convinced about Xu Jiayang being controlled and threatened into silence regarding Xia Weibao, became almost entirely convinced.
