Chapter 239 I am a villain, I cannot do it!
"I can accept him being hypocritical with others for personal gain, but I cannot accept that he is actually with someone else!"
After shouting those words, Wenwen shook her head nervously, denying what she had just said.
"No, no, even if he really is with you, it's okay. I believe he will come back to me someday, but I can't accept him leaving me alone!"
[The main reason Zhang Chengkai realized that his cousin was a career-oriented fan who couldn't even accept her idol dating, and if even one of his past misdeeds were revealed, his cousin definitely wouldn't be able to accept it.]
[The only person who knows his past is Wenwen, so how could he possibly let Wenwen continue to follow him?]
[Besides, Wenwen is just Huanguang's assistant. If he enters Chenyu and Wenwen follows right after, anyone would suspect that their relationship is more than just that of an idol and his assistant.]
So Zhang Chengkai told Wenwen that he was already dating Pei Jiyue, and that Pei Jiyue could help him get into Chenyu, giving him better resources and a brighter future. He asked Wenwen to think about his future and not follow him anymore.
[In the past, Wenwen would agree to anything he said, but he didn't realize that this time his request had crossed Wenwen's bottom line.]
“So that’s how it is.” Pei Jiyue nodded calmly. She finally understood Wenwen’s thought process.
In other words, after she agreed to Zhang Chengkai's request to help him get into Chenyu Entertainment this morning, Zhang Chengkai lied to Wenwen that he was already dating her, and wanted to completely dump Wenwen using similar PUA tactics as before.
Wenwen was willing to accept anything except Zhang Chengkai leaving her, which led to her extreme behavior later on.
So Zhang Chengkai was deceiving both sides.
Pei Jiyue sighed, "You were indeed deceived by Zhang Chengkai. He confessed to me, but I didn't accept. That was just an excuse for him to get rid of you."
But Wenwen simply didn't believe it. "Do you think I'm stupid?"
Pei Jiyue knew that there was no point in talking to her anymore, so she took out her phone and opened a recording app.
“I recorded my entire conversation with Zhang Chengkai this morning. Since you don’t believe me, I can play it for you.”
Even An Ling looked at Pei Jiyue in surprise.
Cousin! How many more surprises do you have in store for me?!
An Ling was so focused on checking Pei Jiyue and Zhang Chengkai's conversation that morning that she didn't even notice she had recorded it!
Pei Jiyue wanted to say that this was an experience she learned from An Ling.
An Ling already had a way to directly obtain information, and she remembered to take a video on the Lantern Festival to leave direct evidence before telling herself the truth, so she also had a backup plan in the morning.
In fact, she herself couldn't tell what her mindset was when she chose to record. She just turned on the record button while hoping that she was doing something unnecessary.
Her conversation with Zhang Chengkai was long, but to prove she wasn't lying, Pei Jiyue only needed to start from the part where Zhang Chengkai confessed his feelings to her.
Zhang Chengkai's voice came clearly from Pei Jiyue's phone:
“I think I shouldn’t hide it from you anymore, and I shouldn’t deceive myself anymore. In the past few years of communication with you, I’ve realized that I’ve really fallen in love with you.”
"Jiyue, let's stop pretending to be dating, let's really be dating, okay?"
Next, Pei Jiyue firmly refused and gave him a "lecture on the professional ethics and qualities of an active idol".
The recording continued until Pei Jiyue agreed to help Zhang Chengkai get into Chenyu Entertainment. Pei Jiyue put away her phone and said helplessly:
"Now do you believe me? I really don't like Zhang Chengkai, and I'm not with him. So I didn't interfere in your relationship at all. You were deceived by him."
With such compelling evidence, neither Wenwen, who has her own set of values, nor many viewers in the live stream who were hesitant to take sides and wanted to wait for further developments, could say that "Pei Jiyue might be lying to avoid being seen as a mistress."
Especially considering that Pei Jiyue, as a fan, actually rejected her idol's confession, many fans watching the live stream felt that they themselves would have been unable to resist in the same situation.
She not only refused, but also scolded her idol.
She's gone to such lengths; anyone who still accuses her of being a mistress is simply lying through their teeth.
[A modern-day Liu Xiahui? He can remain unmoved and reject his idol's confession right in front of him? I couldn't do that.]
[If it were me, I'd just kiss him! (I'm talking about my own idol, not Zhang Chengkai!)]
[This is amazing! Is this what it means to be a career-oriented fan: no one can stand in the way of my idol's career, including myself!]
[I'm sorry, I apologize for doubting Pei Jiyue before. You are a saint, and I am a villain; I couldn't do that!]
[I can't call myself a career-oriented fan anymore. I'm coming clean, I'm a dream girl!]
"How is this possible..." Wenwen was clearly unable to accept this fact, her lips trembling as she murmured, "He actually confessed to me first? And you actually rejected him?"
"But he actually lied to me and said...you two are really together?"
"No, that's not right!" Wenwen actually tried to deny reality. "If you weren't with Chengkai, why would you help him get into your company? You must have exchanged benefits in other ways, right? Just like with other people, did you sleep together too?"
Pei Jiyue's face instantly turned cold. She hadn't expected that even after the recording had been released, Wenwen would still use such despicable thoughts to speculate about her.
Now that all of this has been broadcast live, she can ignore the false accusations Wenwen has leveled against her, but she can't ignore the subsequent public opinion impact.
So Pei Jiyue could only patiently say:
"There are more than just romantic feelings in this world, and not everyone is interested in doing that kind of thing with Zhang Chengkai."
I'm willing to help him, partly because I was a fan of his before, and I would be happy if his career could advance further.
On the other hand, because we were pen pals, he once wrote back to me, his fan, when I was going through a difficult time, offering words of comfort and encouragement, for which I have always been grateful.
Believe it or not, that's the whole reason I'm willing to help him.
Pei Jiyue wasn't sure if what she said to Wenwen was like casting pearls before swine, but she felt that her explanation so far was sufficient, and at least a normal person should be able to distinguish right from wrong.
She looked at the security personnel and said:
"Take her back to the company first and then call the police. Leave the rest to the police."
Security personnel regained control of Wenwen and attempted to lead her towards the company.
They were initially worried that Wenwen would become agitated and resist again, but they found that she had returned to a state of silence.
