Chapter 19: The Weibo Incident
Since the photo of Chi Jing and Qi Feng at the hospital exploded and caused a sensation, the FM members had been targeted by paparazzi. They had to cover up tightly just to go out. Finally, during a team building outing, after having a camera shoved in their faces, they couldn’t take it anymore.
Qi Feng: “Do you fuckers have no real work to do? Staring at us every dayâdo I pay you or what?”
Chi Jing was also so angry blood rushed to his brain, cursing loudly: “You fucking try filming one more time? Did we give you too much face? Go ahead and upload this footage to Weibo, see if we send you a lawyer’s letter. I can’t even imagine what kind of junk is sandwiched between your two ears.”
Chi Jing’s mouth was like a machine gun, firing non-stop at the camera. The paparazzi were like they had been injected with chicken blood, excitedly recording this scene, afraid to miss any exciting moment.
However, at this moment, Wu Cheng finally couldn’t stand it anymore. He rushed forward, grabbed Chi Jing and the others, then turned around to face the camera, speaking seriously: “I hope everyone can be rational and not be swayed by emotions. What we should focus on is the players’ competition results, not their private lives! Please stay away from their lives, give them enough space and freedom, so they can focus on the competition.”
After saying these words, Wu Cheng took a deep breath and continued: “At the same time, I also hope media friends can respect the players’ privacy and not interfere excessively in their lives. After all, they are ordinary people too and need their own private space and time. Only in this way can we truly build a healthy and harmonious esports environment!”
Subsequently, the group got into the car. Stepping on the gas, the car let out a roar, then sped away like an arrow from the string, kicking up dust and smoke, leaving only those unscrupulous reporters standing blankly in place, watching the receding vehicle and smelling the pungent exhaust.
Wu Cheng sat in the car, frowning slightly, and sighed softly. He thought to himself that if this footage really got uploaded to Weibo, it would definitely cause a huge uproar. He couldn’t help shaking his head, thinking helplessly in his heart: “This is really troublesome!”
However, at this moment, a question suddenly occurred to himâwhy was their team’s fame so great? This question lingered in his mind, plunging him into deep thought.
He began to recall every bit since the team was establishedâthose experiences of past competitions, training, and teamwork. Every victory was like a bright star illuminating their path forward; and every failure became a stepping stone for their growth, making them stronger.
Wu Cheng realized that it was precisely these accumulated efforts and achievements that made their team gradually emerge and attract the attention of many people. Their strength, team spirit, and unique style were all reasons for their expanding fame. And Qi Feng and Chi Jing were just a breakthrough point, or rather, just an opportunity.
He took a deep breath, telling himself to face such a situation calmly. After all, fame was also a kind of pressure, but at the same time, it could be transformed into motivation, inspiring them to work harder and pursue higher goals.
Qi Feng: “Chi Jing, cursing so ruthlessly just now, aren’t you afraid of being crusaded against by netizens?”
Chi Jing’s gaze stared out the car window, his eyes looking somewhat dazed and helpless. At this moment, his heart was full of regret and self-blame. He realized he had been too impulsive, lacking careful consideration, completely failing to consider the serious consequences this incident might trigger. If this video was maliciously edited and posted on Weibo out of context, what kind of public opinion storm would it set off? This made him feel very anxious and uneasy.
He rubbed the center of his brows and replied: “Let them be. It’s not like there’s no surveillance at the base entrance. If they dare to take things out of context, I’ll sue them myself without needing PR to intervene.”
Qi Feng didn’t speak, just quietly held his hand. Chi Jing sensed the warm touch, his eyes curving into crescents, and whispered into Qi Feng’s ear: “Haven’t even succeeded in pursuing me yet, and you want to hold my hand?”
Qi Feng smiled too: “Can’t help it. Who told you to be so charming?”
Mo Jingchun, watching their actions from the back seat, scoffed mockingly. The secretly showy guy still hasn’t succeeded. Sigh, I’m still superior. He picked up his phone and sent a message to Qi Feng.
[Jingchun: Can you do it or not?]
[WIND: .?]
[Jingchun: Little Song and I are already together]

[WIND: ? No, little brother, you held back a big one in silence?]

Qi Feng gritted his teeth in anger, secretly annoyed in his heart: “If I knew earlier, I wouldn’t have done unnecessary things!” He couldn’t help gnashing his teeth and cursing that hateful kid. That damn guy, actually moved so fast! And got ahead of him.
Yuan Jibai was also quite angry just now. Ask anyoneâwho could have a good temper when they go out and find a bunch of people holding cameras at their doorstep filming their privacy?
Seeing him like this, Wu Cheng spoke up to comfort him: “Alright, you’ve cursed to your heart’s content. Later, just have PR release another statement.”
Yuan Jibai said anxiously: “Regarding the last incident, the officials didn’t come out to guide the atmosphere at all, acting like dead people. Just releasing those broken skins every day. Look at how ugly that Diao Chan skin is!”
Hearing him mention Diao Chan’s newly released skin, Chi Jing’s face turned black with anger, joining the roast: “Did he eat all the money? Would it kill them to release a decent skin?! Diao Chan players have played their whole lives and finally broke their waists. After eating so much fine bran, they finally ate pig feed too.”
Hearing his metaphor, the corner of Yuan Jibai’s mouth twitched, noncommittal.
“Unless they buff Lu Bu, the officials are insane! Must buff Lu Bu!”
Hearing him say they still needed to buff Lu Bu, Song Qi looked shocked. “Lu Bu can 1v5 with one Ultimate, and you want to buff him? Is there any humanity left?”
Yuan Jibai hey-heyed and laughed: “I know. Except for our team, no one is afraid of the hero Lu Bu.”
He said cheerfully: “My rise to fame back then also had a helping hand from Lu Bu!”
Recalling the past matches, Yuan Jibai’s face was filled with pride and confidence.
He continued: “After all, whoever mentions ‘bye’ will think of that one Ultimate that directly reversed the defeat. Although we stopped at the finals, FM became famous at that time too.”
This memory filled Yuan Jibai with emotion, as if returning to that exciting moment.
He felt proud of his performance and looked forward to creating brilliance again in the future. Team FM shouldn’t stop here!
Mo Jingchun, who had been staring at Weibo on his phone, suddenly spoke up: “You guys look at the Weibo posts.”
The group took out their phones in unison, clicked on Weibo, and found they were on the trending search. However, the video had been edited out of context, only showing them gathering around a reporter and cursing loudly.
Especially Chi Jing, who cursed the most fiercely. This video hadn’t been posted for 15 minutes before it rushed up the trending search, and Chi Jing was being crusaded against by numerous netizens. The group logged into their own Weibo accounts and uniformly posted a Weibo.
[For a video without cause and effect, one must consider the consequences before posting it.]
The five of them posted this Weibo simultaneously. The abuse under Chi Jing’s Weibo was the most severe; current netizens followed the crowd and didn’t use their brains to think at all.
