Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xia Xin pretended to be angry and warned Bobo, “Layle is a good dog. If you keep treating him like an enemy, I’ll get mad.”

Because Jing MO was in the car, Xia Xin didn’t use the Beast Language System. Bobo didn’t fully understand, but from Xia Xin’s expression, it could tell she

was warning it, causing Bobo to whimper softly in protest.

Jing MO was amused, “I didn’t expect you to be so childlike. You can reason with a husky too.”

Xia Xin playfully stuck out her tongue. Of course, it was because she communicated with animals without barriers. She scratched Bobo’s chin, continuing to play with him. For the rest of the journey, the three of them communicated without words.

Later that night, Xia Xin updated another statement, explaining that she just wanted to be an animal caretaker and had no plans to sign up with a company. She hoped that influencer agents wouldn’t occupy public resources, leaving the space for genuine visitors to the zoo.

Within ten minutes of Xia Xin’s video release, thousands of comments were ignited.

Almost half of the comments criticized the difficulty of getting tickets to the zoo. People hadn’t seen the three pandas for a long time, and Xia Xin’s videos were their only way to alleviate their longing.

The remaining comments sparked arguments.

Someone commented, [Another innocent-acting character who’s claiming not to want money, not to be a social media influencer. Isn’t she just aiming to enter the entertainment industry in the future?]

A rebuttal followed, [She simply loves animals. Don’t judge her intentions with your own pettiness.]

Amidst this debate, within an hour, Xia Xin was once again propelled to the second spot on the trending list. The first trend was an official notification about Jing Mo’s nomination for the Golden Jade Award for Best Actor.

Sun Hu was leading his army of online supporters in manipulating comments. He clicked on the sudden rise of the second trend out of boredom and, after looking it over, smirked with the air of someone enjoying a spectacle. He handed the tablet to Jing MO, who was sitting beside him, deep in thought about what food to feed Bobo.

While Jing MO browsed the comments with a furrowed brow, Sun Hu leaned back on the sofa with his hands behind his head, saying, “This woman isn’t simple at all. I’m familiar with this kind of strategy. It won’t take two days for her to enter the entertainment circle, then take on a bunch of low-budget web dramas and variety shows. Her fame won’t last long. I wonder which company is pulling the strings behind her?”

Jing Mo’s hand stopped in the middle of scrolling, but it was an unconscious action. He had already shifted his thoughts elsewhere.

Sun Hu had long grown accustomed to Jing Mo’s absentminded state and continued, “I thought she was just an innocent girl. I was happy that you were finally dating after all these years of being your friend, but it turns out she’s just another opportunist. This young lady is quite calculating.”

Jing Mo t s hand paused for a moment. He said calmly, “She’s not that kind of person.” He then used his slender fingers to rub his slightly throbbing temple, his gaze carrying a threat as he looked at Bobo. “I’ll ask you again, are you going to eat or not?”

Bobo, who had been ignoring premium dog food for days, raised its proud head stubbornly. As if it was saying no.

The news of Xia Xin trending again spread throughout the zoo. Many staff members whispered and pointed at her back as she passed by, making her feel uncomfortable. She couldn’t care less about this trend. However, what surprised her, even more, was that the next trending topic arrived so quickly, and it shot straight to the top.

The advertisement for Trimere had been released. The title closely followed the trending topic, “Forest Princess Dances with a Snake.”

With the combination of video views and paid advertising, the topic reached the top of the trends list within thirty minutes, effortlessly surging to the number one spot.

This advertisement was a direct slap to Xia Xin’s face. Her once-supportive online community was left dumbfounded. They accused her of hypocrisy and ridiculed her for enjoying video profits while rejecting the identity of a social media influencer, branding her as a scheming girl who wanted to enter the entertainment industry.

Xia Xin had initially admired the advertisement for its grandeur. The Trimere’s mascot was cute and endearing. It even defied the nature of snakes by being clingy and adorable.

But as soon as Xia Xin looked at the comment section, she was stunned.

For Xia Xin, once the advertisement was shot and the money was in her pocket, it was unrelated to her. She hadn’t thought about these aspects while filming and only wanted to avoid using public resources. Unexpectedly, logical-minded netizens had used this as a weapon to attack her.

In the past, Xia Xin would have felt upset and embroiled in a war of words when seeing such negative comments and accounts already drowning in insults. But now, she remained calmer and focused on finding solutions.

With no public relations experience, Xia Xin was concerned that explaining too much might create more confusion. So, she decided not to respond for the time being..
