I Am A Prodigy - Chapter 606
Chapter 606: Spammed!
Ye Lingchen’s voice was not too loud and he spoke as calmly as the water’s surface, yet an inexplicable strength was present as it resounded in everyone’s ears.
‘Debasement is the password of the base, nobility the epitaph of the noble!’
The first sentence alone shook the audience like thunder, silencing everyone. For a while, the clamor on the scene died down and they all looked at Ye Lingchen.
It was poetry! Modern poetry!
God Ye knew how to create poetry?
Everyone was stunned.
Ye Lingchen used a modern poem to answer the interviewer’s questions, and the title of that poem was called The Answer!
Ye Lingchen was, without a doubt, the main character there. Even Hyun-Min Kim’s diehard fans stopped cursing and wanted to hear what he had to say!
Zhao Liangying looked over!
So did Chen Xiaoyan!
Ye Lingchen literary talent was clear to see, considering his ability to write such a brilliant song and create an excellent crosstalk script in a hurry.
The leaders, superstars, reporters, and Sergeant Gao’s team of policemen were all transfixed on Ye Lingchen.
When the last sentence ‘they are the pictographs from five thousand years, they are the watchful eyes of future generations’ ended, everyone still had yet to come back from their senses.
Modern poetry was known as modern poetry because it was not complicated. It was easy to discern their underlying meaning from the literal sentences alone.
It was not as obscure as ancient poetry and classical Chinese.
The scene before Ye Lingchen made him unpleasantly depressed, which then allowed him to answer!
After speaking, Ye Lingchen’s gaze seemed rather distant. He looked at the stars and the bright moon surrounded by the boundless night sky.
The group of girls were at the peak of their youth and were the gems of their motherland, yet they lost themselves in a Stick Nation superstar that went so far as to look down on them and detest them. Meanwhile, those reporters relinquished the moral principles of their jobs, willing to slander and twist the truth just for the sake of getting attention.
In an era of somewhat free speech, everyone was still surprisingly dumb.
Loss, sorrow, and anger had finally reverted to calm.
The Answer was an expression of his inner thoughts.
Many veteran celebrities were silent, and many of the older generation among the crowd took a deep breath. They could not believe that such a poem could be written by a young man like him.
The person in charge of the Spring Festival Gala felt ashamed and the security guards lowered their heads.
The reporters stopped talking and no one asked any more questions.
That one poem alone silenced the crowd. Everyone felt suffocated and speechless, with Ye Lingchen’s poem echoing constantly in their consciousness.
Why did Ye Lingchen assault Hyun-Min Kim?
Were those reporters unaware of the reasons? Were those diehard fans blind as to why?
They were just pretending to be unsure.
Others sneered, thinking that Ye Lingchen was an idiot by bringing upon himself so much trouble just for such an insignificant issue. Violence was not the way to solve a problem.
Would Ye Lingchen be oblivious to that fact? Was Ye Lingchen stupid?
Did he not know the consequences of doing that? He knew, of course!
What else was it for if not for the dignity of their country and the pride of their people!
However, all those people were just feigning ignorance, putting themselves first before matters of principle. Judgmental though they might be, they would rather neglect their own beliefs.
They were precisely the ones in the first sentence of Ye Lingchen’s The Answer: ‘Debasement is the password of the base, nobility the epitaph of the noble!’
Ye Lingchen could not just ignore what happened that day.
It was the Spring Festival—a holiday for the Chinese nation. The sight of the Chinese being so depraved was truly heartbreaking!
Ye Lingchen walked away slowly.
Everyone was still quiet and merely watched silently as he left.
“Let’s go.”
Ye Lingchen walked to Sergeant Gao and remarked calmly.
“You ” Sergeant Gao stared blankly at Ye Lingchen.
“I assaulted someone, so it’s only right that I go to the police station and have my statement taken.” Ye Lingchen spoke in a nonchalant and relaxed tone as if going to the police station was like going home.
As far as he was concerned, it was no different from going home, because…he was a sentinel!
“Mm, please get in the car.” Sergeant Gao immediately led Ye Lingchen into the police vehicle.
Meanwhile, the other policemen gathered around Hyun-Min Kim and said coldly, “Bring him away! ”
“Blabla!” Hyun-Min Kim’s expression changed suddenly and he pointed angrily at the police, “Blablabla!”
“We’re the victims. Where’s the law? On what grounds are you arresting us?” one of the bodyguards asked.
Despite their fear of Ye Lingchen, it did not in any way signify that they were afraid of other people. So what, if they faced the police? They had privileges, and everyone who met them treated them with the utmost courtesy!
“You gathered here for a public fight, resulting in disorder and disturbance! Bring them away!”
“We were assaulted! ”
“Didn’t you fight back? There are even more people on your side! Whatever it is, head over to the police station for your statement to be taken! Please cooperate with our work!”
Hyun-Min Kim became speechless, and they were led one by one into the police car.
Before getting into the car, Hyun-Min Kim was still cursing and was very much upset.
“God Ye!” Everyone snapped back to reality at that point and many began looking worryingly at Ye Lingchen.
“Hyun-Min Kim’s bodyguard was the first person who pushed the girl. Plus, they were ones who chose to surround God Ye and start attacking!”
“Exactly, why are you bringing God Ye away!”
“I can testify that God Ye was being over-defensive at most!”
The masses began rallying against Ye Lingchen’s injustice.
Sergeant Gao immediately clarified, “We’re not arresting anyone. He’s just coming with us to the station to help with the investigation. Don’t worry, everyone! ”
“Go home, everyone. Don’t worry about me.” Ye Lingchen smiled casually.
As Ye Lingchen, Hyun-Min Kim, and the others were taken away, things came to an end and the crowd gradually dispersed.
The impact, however, was nothing short of huge and caused a nationwide stir!
At that time of the year, everyone would be talking about the Spring Festival Gala, its programs, or its stars. It was the same across the board, whether it was television channels, media, or on the internet.
Despite that, the convention had been broken that year. After the Spring Festival Gala’s broadcast, the topic on everyone’s mouths was the assault incident!
Midnight marked the new year, which was welcomed with a cheer from everyone after the countdown. However, everyone was getting ready for bed when a viral piece of news spread like wildfire on the internet. It came like a landslide and a tsunami, dispelling the people of their sleepiness.
“F*ck? F*ck? F*ck?”
“F*ck! Did God Ye beat Hyun-Min Kim up?!”
“Goodness me, are you sure that the pig-headed guy in this photo was Hyun-Min Kim?”
“Please prove that this Hyun-Min Kim is really Hyun-Min Kim. That guy doesn’t look anything like him, except for his clothes…”
“He’s been assaulted so terribly. His mother might not even recognize him anymore.”
“Hahaha, well played! This sissy boy has irked me for a long time. Long live the mighty God Ye!”
“F*cking hell? Is he okay after being clobbered like this? God Ye’s balls are pretty huge.”
“Is this fake news? Can anyone share the entire incident?”
“Upstairs, your news is a bit too late. Weibo, Douyin, Toutiao, WeChat Moments, and other chat groups are all being spammed! ”
