Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Fairy Tales Are All Deceptive
“You have to go check it out, it has gone viral! And sure enough, soone made a sar video. After the sar video ca out, all those paid influencers reversed their positions, questioning Ling Xiaoxue’s IQ. Even the official police account stepped forward to confirm, promising to rectify the socially unstable elents. It’s so satisfying, a real slap in the face!”
“This turnaround… it’s a bit fast.”
“Anyway, Ling Xiaoxue is now sared to the max. That close-up fight photo of her by Star Headlines has turned into a wildly circulated .”
Lu Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief as well, no wonder Gu Annan had said Xu Yuan wouldn’t have any issues.
“That’s good. Later I’ll write up a detailed article about this whole incident and put it on the front page of our next issue. Right, how did you guys start this feud anyway?”
“Cough cough cough… My throat is a bit sore; the police questioned for a long ti. Wanwan, let’s talk about personal matters another ti, I’m going to rest.”
...
“Xu Yuan, you!!”
Lu Wanwan stared at the ended call, really, she could tell such an obvious evasion. If she weren’t worried that Xu Yuan would bring up Gu Annan, or question the rapid plot twist, she certainly would have insisted on questioning.
However, Xu Yuan didn’t ntion a word about Gu Annan or the twist, which puzzled her as well.
Xu Yuan had known her since high school, so of course, she knew about Gu Annan.
Speaking of which, their nas were well known in that session, though rembered in different ways.
Xu Yuan was known for taking on four street thugs who harassed her and triumphing, deterring the opposite sex at Dichen High School from anything beyond distant admiration.
As for her, Lu Wanwan, it was very simple—it was all because of Gu Annan.
Dichen High School was never short of celebrities—offspring of wealthy businessn, descendants of noble families, children of stars—they were everywhere. But from the mont Gu Annan entered the school, he had garnered much more attention than all those others.
Not because of his surna Gu—in fact, at the ti almost nobody in the school knew he was the heir to the biggest financial group, the Gu Family, let alone Lu Wanwan.
He was famous purely because he was outstanding.
Upon entering Dichen High School, the first thing was a very difficult test. It was said that because incoming students had it too good all their lives, their egos needed a little crushing to start with a humbling experience.
Before Gu Annan’s appearance beca well-known, he had already made his na known to the whole school with overwhelmingly high scores, taking the term ‘school elite’ to new heights within Dichen High School.
And when they finally saw him, you can imagine how much attention he attracted—his looks and intelligence made him the undisputed number one heartthrob.
His influence even at tis overtook that of Qiao Moran, who was a year above him and the Dichen Flower. Keep in mind, by then, Qiao Moran was already a singer known nationwide.
Lu Wanwan always felt that if the social dia and technology of that ti had been as developed as it is now, he would definitely not have been able to stay low-profile for those three years.
Just a few casual photos on Weibo and a couple of posts about his impressive resu would have been enough to make him popular.
So, chasing after soone of such a high caliber was never perceived as promising for her back then.
She was the kind who was academically lopsided, coined as the epito of ‘beauty without brains’, in stark contrast to Gu Annan.
But those people really got it right, overturning the male god was indeed only an illusion.
Even though she felt that she had been so close to him, the outco was still the sa—in fairy tales, it’s all lies.

When Lu Wanwan finished writing the article, it was already midnight.
She yawned, feeling a bit thirsty, and took a cup down the stairs to get so water.
