Chapter 1978: Kidnapping and Imprisonment

Then, after eating another lobster, the mukbang host tapped the side of the bowl twice.

After the police were alerted, an investigation indeed led to the bust of a hideout, rescuing many hostages.

Song Yuan’s reaction just now clearly showed she was looking behind the camera; there’s someone there!

“Is someone threatening you, forcing you to say something? Are you being controlled, trying to clear someone’s name?”

Song Yuan shook her head, but all she could do was shake her head, her eyes reddened, “Really not, those things online aren’t true, really not. Jiaojiao and I are really good friends, there’s no kidnapping, no control, no threats, none… My purpose of going live is to clarify to everyone. Don’t… don’t wrong a good person.”

“A good person?” A prominent fan immediately disagreed, “There’s obviously someone beside you. What are you afraid of? So many people are watching the live stream, we’ll call the police right away. We won’t believe anyone can have sky-high influence!”

“Don’t…”

“No one is controlling; it’s our company’s public relations.” Sister Lai gestured behind the camera, several PR looked at each other, not fully going out, but sending one person who entered the camera with those cards.

“We’re PR under Song Yuan’s agency. Yuan Yuan was very unwilling to go live, continually pleading for someone, but as for the truth, we, like everyone, are well aware. Yuan Yuan’s emotions are very unstable, she was frightened, barely recovering. We’re afraid she can’t articulate clearly, so we’ve arranged cards to show her. But just now, when I lifted this card, she couldn’t bear to read it.”

Before the words were finished, the PR already raised the card facing the camera.

The live stream had 15 million viewers, the screen glitched for a moment, then everyone clearly saw the content on the card.

——”I am being restrained, my parents are blocked outside the hospital, Nan Jiaojiao is supposedly taking care but is actually supervising, staging numerous photos as a show, threatening that if I don’t cooperate, she’ll control my parents. My phone is also taken by Nan Jiaojiao, preventing me from contacting outside for help. Every time the nurse comes to change my bandages, Nan Jiaojiao vigilantly monitors, once finished, she drives the doctor away. I have no choice but to obey, seeking a way to escape.”

The card was held long enough for every viewer in the live stream to see clearly, combined with the increasingly outraged commentary from PR, easily stirring people’s hearts.

Now, Nan Jiaojiao went from ungrateful, deliberately blocking the ambulance, to a kidnapper imprisoning people, a villain beyond redemption.

Online public outrage boiled over.

The barrage ran so fast, it was only a blur.

Song Yuan pushed aside Sister Lai, she wanted to check the phone, but even though she managed to sit up, her legs couldn’t move at all, causing her to fall back, desperately crying out, “Let me see the phone!”

“Yuan Yuan, don’t move anymore, you’ll pull on the wound and make it worse!” Sister Lai quickly helped her back.

But Song Yuan insisted, eyes red, crying, her chin trembling, staring hard at the phone from afar, “Let me see it, quickly let me see it!”

Sister Lai was in a bind, unable to refuse Song Yuan, signaled PR to bring over the phone.

Once Song Yuan got it, instead of capturing from below, she, aware of her celebrity camera instincts, found a perfect frontal angle, her finger tapping on the screen, scrolling through messages.

The more she looked, the worse her expression became, continuously shaking her head.
