Forced to Date a Big Shot - Chapter 151
Chapter 151: Knowledge Is Strength
After answering the questions, Xue Xi looked at Qin Shuang and asked in confusion, “What is it?”
Qin Shuang could not speak. She passed the phone to Xue Xi, who frowned when she saw the poem.
It was her first time looking at Weibo today, and she realized that verbally attacking people could be done so easily. Just because they were online, they could be fearless, and they did not have to bear the legal consequences.
“Although it felt good to watch Little Missy answer the exercise questions just now, Master has spoken. If you think about it carefully, she was indeed showing off her skills. She can be accused of making a scene.”
“As a parent of a student, I personally feel that children should focus on their studies. Live-streaming to earn money is indeed not something a third-year student should do!”
“…”
This group of people had no idea about Qin Shuang’s real situation. It was really laughable how they were pretending to be morally superior and accusing her of wrongdoing.
Feeling a little angry, Xue Xi typed a line of words on Qin Shuang’s phone. She then uploaded it on Weibo and returned the phone to her.
Qin Shuang was stunned. She saw Xue Xi stand up and put her papers and pen into her bag. “I’m going.”
Qin Shuang: “?”
She watched in a daze as Xue Xi’s cold figure quickly disappeared at the entrance. When she returned to her senses, she saw the live-stream’s comments being spammed.
“Little Miss is so awesome!”
“Hahaha, actually, I’ve been unhappy with Yu Wei for a long time. However, my literary talent can’t compare to his and I can’t win in a fight with a scholar. It feels great to see Little Missy do that today!”
“This Little Miss is too all-powerful. I’m a fan!”
“…”
Qin Shuang asked them in confusion, “What happened?”
The commenters replied with a “Hahaha” and then told her to look at her Weibo.
As they had been live-streaming, although the camera did not point at Xue Xi’s face, everyone could see their interactions in the live-stream. Hence, everyone knew that Xue Xi had taken Qin Shuang’s phone to post a Weibo message.
Qin Shuang hurriedly exited the live-stream and looked at Weibo. She saw a Weibo post that she had just posted:
[White Light] @Yu Wei
Bamboo handsome,
Bamboo wholesome.
Withering without joints,
Moonlike with joints.
Substance prosperous,
Substance numerous.
Can be made into coal,
Can be made into a pole.”
In just a few minutes, there were more than a thousand comments below. They were all praising Xue Xi. That kind-hearted person from before seemed to have heard about this matter and ran over to continue interpreting.
Kind-hearted Person: “I’m here again. I’m not participating in the argument. I’m only in charge of the interpretation!
“Bamboo handsome, (Bamboo can be made into pens and bamboo slips, allowing one to write beautiful words.)
“Bamboo wholesome (Bamboo can be made into a flute or lute, producing beautiful melodies.)
“Withering without joints, (Bamboo have joints, where the joints represent integrity and morals. Without joints, a bamboo will wither. This denotes that a person without integrity will not have a good ending.)
“Moonlike with joints. (Bamboo with joints is normal bamboo. They are upright and honest, like the beautiful moon.)
“Substance prosperous, (The forest is lush with resources.)
“Substance numerous. (Here, “substance” can also mean one has worth. It means there are many people with substance.)
“Can be made into coal, (Some materials are used for burning and are useless. It hints at people who are talented and immoral. They will not have a good ending and are useless.)
“Can be made into a pole. (Some materials can be made into poles to support a building. It hints that only those with both substance and morals can truly be talented people.)
“Personally, I think this poem is even better.”
The moment this Weibo post was uploaded, many people tagged Yu Wei. Yu Wei was rendered speechless and kept quiet. Xue Xi had won this competition!
Moreover, after Yu Wei targeted her, Qin Shuang became even more famous. Her Weibo fans immediately rose to a million!
Qin Shuang was stunned. She could not help but swear to express her shock. “F*ck! What kind of godly person is Sister Xi?!”
Everyone in the live-stream was laughing like crazy.
Qin Shuang simply continued the live-stream until 10 PM, then wrapped it up. She took a look at the gifts and realized that she had earned 20 thousand yuan in one night.
As she looked at the money, her despair during this period of time dissipated.
She, who had not eaten dinner, found a piece of bread in her room and started eating it with water. After finishing it, she stared fixedly at the table and thought of those people on Weibo who’d criticized her.
She thought of Xue Xi’s reply and how she was always so confident.
Even the poem of that great literary figure could be countered by her with just a few words. This kind of person was born free and unrestrained, brave and one-of-a-kind. She used herself to explain that knowledge was power.
Qin Shuang suddenly looked at the books on the table.
Actually, although her studies were not as good as Qin Lu’s, she still had a solid foundation. Otherwise, she would not have been able to enter the experimental class. However, her parents saw only Qin Lu’s outstanding talents. They always ignored and berated Qin Shuang, making it impossible for her to continue with her efforts.
She had originally intended to give up on her studies, but now, she suddenly had the urge to read.
She opened her exercise book and started reading.
Upon glancing up, she saw that it was dawn.
Just as she was chewing on the tip of her pen and worrying about the math questions she had answered, she suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Could it be that the girl who rented the apartment next door did not have a key?
Qin Shuang scratched her head. Her hair was in a mess and her makeup was all ruined. However, her mind was filled with the math questions, so she opened the door without thinking.
Just as the door swung open, a grinding voice was heard. “Qin! Shuang!”
Qin Shuang was stunned when she saw Mrs. Qin, Mr. Qin, and Qin Lu standing outside.
Her face darkened. “Why are you guys here? You’re not welcome…”
Before she could finish speaking, Mrs. Qin rushed over and grabbed her arm. “Why couldn’t you just study well? Why are you still doing live-streams? Everyone in the industry came to ask me if you are my daughter. You’ve embarrassed the Qin family! Come home with me now!”
Qin Shuang was not as strong as Mrs. Qin. Moreover, Mr. Qin had grabbed her from the other side. She struggled and shouted, “Let go of me! Help!”
The neighbors heard the sound and opened the door to check. Someone asked warily, “What happened?”
Qin Lu hurriedly said, “She is my sister. She is too rebellious. Ah Shuang, come home with us. You are still a student. How can you run away from home and do live-streams?”
Qin Shuang used all her strength and wanted to hug the door, but Mr. Qin was a man after all. He immediately picked her up and Qin Shuang shouted, “I don’t have parents like you guys. Let go of me!”
The neighbors wanted to stop them, but Mrs. Qin showed them her household register. After the neighbors confirmed their relationship, they treated it as a rebellious child leaving home and watched helplessly as Qin Shuang was dragged away.
Bang!
Qin Shuang was thrown into the car. She wanted to leave but was restrained. Both her hands were tied up, and she was returned home.
…
The next day, when Xue Xi was in class, she realized that Qin Shuang was not there.
During the class break, Qin Shuang’s mother came to the school to help her with the transfer procedures.
Xue Xi felt that something was amiss and chased after Mrs. Qin. “Auntie, where did Qin Shuang transfer to?”
