Later, someone revealed that the man Ji Yunya was dining with was none other than Qin Du, the person in charge and president of Zhuanyi International China Region, and also the crown prince of Zhuanyi International. This news completely set the internet ablaze. There was not much information about Qin Du online, even pitifully little, but he had been interviewed by a financial magazine, showing his face to the public. Someone took screenshots from his interview and compared them, and indeed it was Qin Du. Qin Du was exactly the person who was collaborating with the Yun Group. When he first accepted the interview, he openly criticized Yun Group and Yun Shen’s personal morality. And now he was rumored to be deeply involved with the daughter of the Yun Group, possibly dating her. There was a lot to speculate about this matter, and the media immediately smelled the scent of juicy gossip. All sorts of articles flew around, with mixed opinions about Ji Yunya. The biggest question was that Ji Yunya, at her young age, was getting too close to men, which might be damaging her image. But since she had a positive image and a strong fan base, these questions were only minor waves, causing no significant disturbance.

Isn’t that perfectly normal? The situation seemed to be moving in a favorable direction. Although there were many rumors, they were all within controllable limits. Later, it seemed that the relationship between Qin Du and Ji Yunya was confirmed. But suddenly, the tone shifted dramatically when a voice emerged, claiming that Ji Yunya knew her family company was about to collapse and had found herself a backup in advance; that Qin Du was also deceived by her, and that this young woman was deeper than the sea and far too terrifying. It also said that the live broadcast tear-down between Kang Jinse and Kang Jinxian was orchestrated by Ji Yunya herself, as revenge against the women who took her mother’s place. The allegations seemed to form a coherent story, as if the speaker had experienced it firsthand, full of accountability and doubt towards Ji Yunya, painting her as the most hypocritical and vicious person, deceiving the public. This voice originated from a Weibo celebrity blogger known for spreading false information. Although she quickly deleted her Weibo post, her screenshots still made it to major forums. Many fans cursed her for talking nonsense, but some people actually believed her, including potentially those deliberately stirring up trouble. Just like that, as public opinion fermented, Ji Yunya’s perfect image began to show cracks. At that time, she was sweetly asleep in Yan Song’s arms. Yun Ya wouldn’t care even if she saw it. The more frenzied these dregs behaved, the harder the repercussions would hit them. They really thought she was a soft persimmon, easy to crush. As the voices of doubt became louder and rumors grew deafening, increasingly unfavorable for Ji Yunya, Qin Du took the initiative to accept an interview and candidly discussed his relationship with Ji Yunya. In the interview, he shared that his relationship with Ji Yunya was indeed significant. They had met abroad, and Ji Yunya was his junior. In a foreign land, it was natural for them to support each other and grow close. He considered Ji Yunya as nothing more than a younger sister, nothing more. Their relationship was equal, with no one riding on the coattails of the other. Hence, even when Yun Group later encountered a crisis, he wouldn’t change his stance due to personal relationships, which was also Ji Yunya’s idea. Qin Du presented a picture in which Ji Yunmiao and Ji Yunya stood by his side, left and right. The three were smiling at the camera, their smiles bright. Qin Du exuded the charisma of a big brother, not leaving any room for misunderstanding. Even looking at Qin Du’s gentle countenance, it would be an insult to harbor any ill thoughts towards him. Finally, he said, "I’ve always treated Yun Ya and Yun Miao as my younger siblings, caring and protecting them. I didn’t expect it to be misconstrued . It doesn’t matter to me, but what about the harm to Yun Ya’s reputation and spirit? Kind words warm three winter months, hurtful words wound like the cold of June. To speculate with such malice about a kind girl, doesn’t your conscience pain you?" "At the same time, I will sue the rumor-mongering blogger for defamation. Wait for the court’s summons." With Qin Du’s explanations, the rumors dissipated like smoke. His demeanor was genuinely sincere, and it seemed he had a charm that made people instinctively believe him. What he said was logical and compelling, leaving no room for disbelief. His words, "Doesn’t your conscience pain you?" even became an internet meme, inciting good-humored teasing from netizens and catching on like wildfire. The fans heaved a sigh of relief. It was a false alarm after all. They said their Yaya was not that kind of person, and those rumor-spreading trolls were truly hateful.
