She Live Streams Modern Life to Ancient People After Failing to Conquer the Emperor-Chapter 100: What Flowers Bloom in My Hometown
Chapter 100
"It's over!"
Gu Sang turned and left the press conference venue.
With that, the press conference came to a satisfactory conclusion, leaving only flustered and bewildered reporters behind.
And online, fearless netizens reacted: some were too afraid to comment further, some deleted their previous comments, while others arrogantly insulted Gu's two daughters for their lack of decorum.
As for the commoners of ancient times who had watched the live broadcast, their eyes were reddened.
Some things one can only truly understand by seeing with one's own eyes and experiencing firsthand—words can be more painful than murder!
"Wah wah wah, the Immortal has finally explained everything clearly. It's all over now."
"So it turns out that for disadvantaged girls who are slandered and defamed, there's no way to prove their innocence. Even if they lay out the facts, people will only see what they want to see, not the truth!"
"If the Lady wasn't from a prestigious family with enough reason to avoid being a mistress, those reporters would surely have spread even worse rumors about her, right?"
"Heh...how ironic. Without understanding anything, they ruined an innocent woman's reputation. In this era, how is that different from murder?"
The ancient ladies gazed intently at the live broadcast screen, tears uncontrollably streaming down their faces.
In their era, alas, far too many women died because of malicious rumors.
Far too many were slandered as being romantically involved with men simply for being looked at by them a few times!
All the spectators were well aware that the victims could potentially be wronged, but none had ever spoken up for those innocent women. Now, after witnessing Gu Sang being berated and insulted, the ancient people were finally awakened.
*Ding!*
*+70,000 Virtue Points*
Soon, the press conference concluded smoothly.
Gu Sang left the venue in a pleasant mood.
Beside her, Little Chili Pepper was blinking her eyes, staring intently at Gu Sang. Noticing her sister's gaze, she quickly put on a straight face and looked up at the sky.
Gu's father and Gu's mother looked at Gu Sang with utmost shame and said, "Sang Sang, about that...since such a big incident happened, and you don't seem to have rested properly lately, why don't you come home with us? Your mom can take care of you at home."
"And if you really don't want to learn those aristocratic etiquettes, it's fine if you can't master them. We won't force you anymore. Just do whatever you enjoy, okay?"
Gu Qing's ears twitched, and she pretended not to care as she listened intently.
Would Gu Sang go back?
Would she? Wouldn't she? Would she? Wouldn't she? Would she?
"Thanks Dad, Mom, but I'm used to living away from home now. I can take care of myself." Gu Sang declined moving back home, but for the first time, she called them Dad and Mom.
Previously, she had always addressed them as Gu's father and Gu's mother.
Gu's father and Gu's mother had reddened eyes, their lips trembling with emotion. They didn't dare ask for anything more and watched as Gu Sang left in a taxi.
Meanwhile, Gu Qing, who was standing not far away gazing up at the sky, widened her eyes in disbelief!
Gu Sang left just like that?
Oh my god!
She left without saying a single word to Gu Qing! Did she treat Gu Qing like she was invisible? Gu Qing had just unleashed a lifetime's worth of curses on her behalf!
Wah wah wah!
She would never help Gu Sang again!
*Whirr*
The taxi window rolled down, and Gu Sang's bright eyes and unusually gentle, affectionate tone caught Gu Qing off guard as she said, "Explosive Little Cotton Jacket, your sister is leaving."
"Ah...ah? Okay! Okay!" Gu Qing, dazed by the smile, waved goodbye instinctively.
Ba-dump, ba-dump, ba-dump...
Damn it!
Why is her heart beating so fast?
Calm down, Gu Qing, you puppy! How can you be won over by just a few words? You useless thing!
But...but she called me Little Cotton Jacket.
In the following few minutes,
Gu's father and Gu's mother watched in bewilderment as Gu Qing occasionally giggled to herself, hands in her pockets, sometimes kicking a small stone at her feet, shyly and affectedly muttering to herself: "Little Cotton Jacket?"
"Hee hee hee..."
"She finally acknowledged my kindness."
"She finally appreciates how thoughtful I am."
"Little Cotton Jacket...but why explosive? Maybe it's because I seem bold to her, hee hee hee hee..."
Gu's father and Gu's mother exchanged glances, thinking, "Oh no!
She's gone abnormal!"
Meanwhile, Gu Sang called Cowgirl Girl and arranged to meet up with Lin Lin shortly, as they had agreed. Gu Sang had prepared an identical gold necklace as a token of her gratitude.
After getting in touch with Cowgirl Girl, the two of them headed to Lin Lin's home together.
Halfway there, the car encountered a traffic jam.
After honking the horn twice, the driver stuck his head out to look ahead. "Strange, this road never gets jammed like this. Why are there so many people up ahead?"
*Beep beep beep*
Suddenly, a fleet of urgent ambulances and fire trucks came rushing from afar.
"All of you, back up and make way for the emergency vehicles!" The ambulance driver stuck his head out, seeing the road was completely blocked ahead and unable to pass through, so he shouted anxiously from the vehicle.
The ancient viewers watching the live broadcast recognized those fire trucks and the orange-red uniforms, immediately recalling the earthquake rescue they had seen, and their hearts skipped a beat!
The Divine Lady had mentioned during her broadcast that these were called firefighters!
Heroes who rescued the commoners!
Could it be a major disaster?
The ancient commoners exchanged glances, the atmosphere immediately becoming tense.
The fire truck driver shouted urgently from his vehicle, "No good, the road ahead is too blocked. If we wait until it's cleared, it'll be too late."
"Captain, let's grab our gear and run over there. It's only a few hundred meters away."
"Alright, grab all your equipment. Leave one person to drive the truck. The rest of you, follow me to rescue the victims!"
At the captain's command, the firefighters in orange rescue uniforms swiftly disembarked.
After grabbing their rescue equipment, they sprinted towards the sidewalk.
At this sight, the ancient viewers watching the live broadcast witnessed these young men, none older than thirty, fearlessly carrying heavy rescue equipment as they rapidly ran forward.
They were like a gust of wind, moving so swiftly that one could only see their afterimages.
Carrying such heavy loads yet able to run that fast? These heroes of the modern era were indeed formidable!
The concubines uneasily remarked, "This servant recalls seeing those men in orange uniforms in the earthquake movie we watched previously."
"Is it an earthquake?"
"It couldn't be, could it? But they seem so urgent. What happened that required them to run that fast? Do these rescuers appear even without major disasters?"
Gu Sang frowned slightly, listening to the live streaming crowd from ancient times discussing, while turning his head to look out the window.
The girl sitting next to Gu Sang suddenly became uneasy!
Ever since Gu Sang was abducted by human traffickers, Lin Lin's depression seemed to have worsened, especially in the past few days when she had become particularly quiet and uncommunicative.
Also...a few hundred meters ahead, wasn't that the company where Lin Lin was stripped naked and beaten by the original wife?
