Fame

Su Yu could see from the corner of his eye that the comments are flying very fast again on his mobile phone screen. He knows that the online audience is anxious again and nervous for him, with the mix of confusion, too, for his actions just now. But Su Yu can't explain it to them. And since he can't explain it, then he will just continue to act as if in a daze… like he was greatly affected by what happened to Duan Yuan. After all, this is just a normal reaction for humans when someone they know had an accident.

So, Su Yu resumed blankly looking around the room. He looked absent-minded.

"Wuwuwuwu! Was the anchor traumatized?!"

"Nooooo! That can't be!!! But it might as well be considering what happened to his friend QAQ poor author!"

"If that happened to me, too, and it happened before my very own eyes, I am afraid I will have reacted worse than the anchor did. The anchor is already doing his best to cope with his mentality that should have been greatly shaken by what happened just now. As long as the anchor could calm down, then there will be a bigger chance that the anchor could save his friend!"

"What upstairs said made sense! One has to be in a good condition so that one could act better. I believe that anchor could recover!"

"I also believe in anchor! Or else, I would not be his fan! He is my idol!"

"I also believe +66666"

But the black fans who were beaten black and blue* by Su Yu's fans returned as if they are masochists.

*not in personal; virtual fight on the internet

"Heh… the car now has overturned* and the anchor has been traumatized. After all, it was he who brought his disabled friend to the Purple Old Manor."

*an unexpected situation/accident occurred

"That's right, that's right! It was the anchor's fault if anything happened to his friend. After all, one can't guarantee what will happen when exploring a haunted house, especially the Purple Old Manor which is rumored to be evil…"

"The anchor really does this for clout. He even used his disabled friend to gain more viewers since a disabled person present in a horror livestream was never been seen. Maybe the author thought that the audience got tired of his junior anchor Happy since the junior anchor only knows how to cry since he wanted to suppress his screams so that he won't look ugly in the camera."

…

Fanfan Building.

The 'Happy' that the black fan was talking about is Tang Lele*. (*'le' means 'happy') The comments of the black fans are very vicious and Han Yao saw it. He wanted to pull Tang Lele away from the computer so that Tang Lele won't see the comments against him. But, it was too late.

"Han-ge!" Tang Lele called Han Yao as he pointed to the monitor of the computer where the black fans' comments can be seen. "Look, look! They mentioned my name!" he told Han Yao.

Han Yao, who was thinking that the timid Tang Lele would feel sad and hurt upon seeing the black fans' comments against him. "… I can see." He answered as he took a deep breath. He thought that since Tang Lele is timid, he would also be very sensitive. In fact, he has already expected Tang Lele to cry after the black fans attacked him together with Su Yu.

But, it seems that Han Yao underestimated Tang Lele. Or that, he doesn't know Tang Lele that well yet.

"Wait. I will go contact my younger brother again to deal with this new wave of black fans as well as the water army." Han Yao said as he dialed his younger brother's number. "Or else, xiao Yu's livestream would be on the hot search again." He said with a heavy sigh in his voice.

Tang Lele nodded in understanding. He heard that as early as Su Yu decided to explore the Purple Old Manor, Han Yao planned to suppress the hot search on Weibo in case Su Yu's livestream would reach it. After all, not only the news about the Purple Old Manor being evil is already talked about by the public, but in case something happens to Su Yu in his exploration of the Purple Old Manor, it wouldn't be good for Su Yu's reputation.

Just like what the black fans are commenting, Su Yu's car has overturned. So, if Han Yao didn't have an insight and didn't arrange to suppress Su Yu's livestream, Su Yu's image to the netizens would be very bad since something has happened to Duan Yuan.

Fortunately, though, Duan Fanbai – Duan Yuan's uncle, didn't say anything after something happened to Duan Yuan as he also watched Su Yu's livestream. Maybe, Duan Fanbai also knows that it was he who forced Su Yu in the first place to take Duan Yuan with him to explore the Purple Old Manor. Thus, Duan Fanbai didn't say anything to Han Yao to condemn Su Yu. This made Han Yao feel relieved… well, for now, since maybe Duan Fanbai would suddenly erupt like a volcano in case they found Duan Yuan… died.

Han Yao immediately shook his head to erase the negative thoughts. He waited until someone from the other line pick up the call. "Xiao Le." He called Tang Lele.

"Yes, Han-ge?" Tang Lele answered.

"That… about the black fans' comments…" Han Yao spoke.

"It's fine. I know that they can't be taken seriously since they only comment to hate on others." Tang Lele said. "Also, even if my reputation would become black* because of this… but black is still red**, isn't this?" he said. He means that infamy is still a kind of fame.

*bad reputation

**famous

Han Yao looked at Tang Lele, but in the end, still nodded. "En." He answered before he turned after someone finally picked up his call. "Yu-er." He called when he heard his younger brother's voice answer. "Continue to suppress the hot search of xiao Yu…" he said as he continued to instruct.
