Surprisingly, what she expected never happened that night. Chris didn't kiss her again. He just kept on hugging her, consoling her until she fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already near midnight. She was in her pajamas. Obviously, Chris changed her clothes.

How come she didn't notice it?

Was she that tired?

Ah, scheming was indeed tiresome.

She looked at the man next to her.

Chris was sleeping in the bed but the lights inside the room were still on. Perhaps… he fell asleep while staring at her?

The assumption sounded weird. Why would he stare at her while she was sleeping?

Seeing that he was still in his suit, Sera slowly opened the buttons of his shirt before tucking him under the blankets. Then she went to her office.

'Ah… seven missed calls.'

All of them were from Lawyer Liu.

For a few seconds, she debated if she should call him back, since it was already past midnight. But in the end, Sera still called the old man.

[When you said that I should prepare for the calls… you didn't tell me that there would be more than twenty media channels that would call me even if it was already late at night!]

"Hehe… lawyer Liu… are you alright?"

She heard a loud sigh on the other line.

[If you are asking if I am still alive. Then I am alive! But your issue is really stressing me out! How could you — ah — I wasn't aware that you really are one of the most hated people in the industry! Zhang Ying's fans are planning to barge into your house and kill you for bullying their goddess! Tsk! Sera… this mess…]

Sera only smiled as she put her phone into loudspeaker mode. Earlier, she had a really good cry in Chris's arms. Because of this, she felt really light and refreshed. The fact that she felt something like this without even saying a word as she cried last night was speaking volumes about how comfortable she was with Chris. Just like how she was so comfortable crying in Cross's arms.

She decided to stop thinking about those two men and focused on the issue in front of her.

"Lawyer Liu… we already expected this. There is no need to panic."

[Who is panicking? I am just surprised! How could you have offended a lot of people in the entertainment industry when you were so young? You are too troublesome!]

"It is a little troublesome," Sera said as she looked at the current trending article.

'Sera Zhang and her Dark History'

'Sera Zhang bullying Zhang Ying!'

'Sera Zhang trending for Being Evil; Again!'

'Why did Sera Zhang came back?'

Sera couldn't help but scratched her eyebrow. She already expected Zhang Ying to retaliate. Because of this, she was preparing a lot of things. However… she fell asleep.

And it was already midnight.

She missed the timing.

After checking the video, she realized that someone had deleted it.

'It must be Edward Fu' she thought inwardly.

[Right now, reporters are trying to bother my people. They wanted to know if we released that video. The angle of the video is from the person behind you. Edward Fu and Zhang Ying should know that it was your bodyguard who took the video. However, the reporters don't know this.]

"What did you tell them?" she asked.

[I told them it wasn't us. And we are currently investigating the matter.]

"Ah… they hired some professionals to delete the video." She noted.

[And? What is going to happen now?]

"If they deleted the video, then their computers are already fried. Touching the video would automatically install a virus in their computer. Unless they are smart enough, then… they would be able to avoid the destruction of their computer. But it would still affect their files. The virus is— "

[Can you use the same language as my language?]

"Oh… in short. They are screwed." Sera said. "Even if they delete the virus… it will resurface in the net after six hours."

[How did you do that? Isn't that illegal?]

"What is illegal? Did I ask them to delete it?"

[Shameless! Then I can see why you are hated you are obviously evil.]

"Hehe… Lawyer Liu is praising me too much."

Sera started checking some of the articles and found really interesting ones.

'Caught in the Act, Sera Zhang bullying Tang Meimei!'

'Sera Zhang jealous of Tang Meimei for being close to Edward Fu'

'Tang Meimei and Edward Fu are cousins! Check for more details!'

'Sera Zhang is Edward Fu's girlfriend?'

'Sera Zhang willing to do everything for her lover Fu Family heir apparent Edward Fu.'

'Sera Zhang and Edward Fu broke up?'

'Caught in action! Sera Zhang in bed with other men?'

'Sera Zhang caught cheating!'

'Sera Zhang a Serial Cheater?'

'Dirty woman Sera Zhang targeting her sister because of Edward Fu?'

'Love triangle; Sera, Edward and Zhang Ying!'

A mocking smile crossed Sera's face.

"Those people really republished some of the old articles about me. How interesting."

[You think this is still interesting? You brat… this is really troublesome for me! Now people are thinking that you are evil! How could they sympathize with you?]

"Then… should I publish some good deeds?"

[Do you have one?]

"I don't skip the lines, I don't throw my garbage anywhere, I don't— "

[Stop! Those are— ]

"I also follow traffic laws." Sera nodded as she silently praised herself. "Yes, I follow traffic laws! I don't cross when it's not crossing time yet."

[You — You will anger me to death.]

"Lawyer Liu…" Sera chuckled. "Just answer their calls. Stop worrying about what other people think about my reputation. Let them think whatever they want."

[You don't understand. This would surely affect my reputation too.]

"Oh… then just tell them the truth."

[What truth?]

"That I am paying you. Nothing personal."

[You— ]

Sera chuckled. "It's fine lawyer Liu. Stop stressing yourself out. We need the news to complete our plan. So just sit back and answer the calls. Alright. I need to work. See you tomorrow."
