61 Yeri suddenly shed tears
The crowd went on an uproar with all the gossiping and babbling.
'That was fast!' Yeri was also caught off guard, not expecting the instant backlash from the annoying young master's fans.
The case of her brother isn't a secret so she's somehow expecting it will come to rise in the next coming days, however, aside from the students at her school, not many were aware that Colin Zhi is her brother.
Is this simply because she appeared close to Saeki Jie?
Saeki Jie was momentarily surprised, he had heard about that scandal 3 years ago but wasn't expecting that the beauty is related to it, seeing how she remained quiet, this will be a good opportunity for him to save the damsel in distress!
However, before he was able to utter any words, Yeri suddenly shed tears, her face remained indifferent but the pain and sorrow in her eyes are evident.
Just like Saeki, the crowd were moved by Yeri's silent tears, why should a delicate girl have to endure such ridicule just because of blood relation?
Not long after, the crowd went chaotic and began harassing the guy who ridiculed Yeri, a percentage of them started hurling objects and insults at him.
"Get the f*ck out of here you bastard! you're the braindead for creating trouble!"
"That's right! why are you blaming her for the crime that her brother committed?!"
"Someone must have paid him, that happened years ago why are you suddenly spouting nonsense now?!"
"Looking at his buttface, our angel must have dumped him before and he wants to take revenge."
"Everyone protect our angel!"
"I went to a juvenile centre for 2 years when I was young, does that make me shameless as well for being here?" one of the International players also spoke up.
His words further triggered the crowd that it required security personnel to take the guy who asked the question out there.
Where the hell did he go wrong?
He received an anonymous message about Yeri Zhi and a reward of $100,000 if he can drag her reputation down the mud, as a struggling live streamer how can he refuse?
He was prepared to refute her response but who would have thought that she instead cried and didn't utter a single word to defend herself, earning sympathy from everyone.
"This is an e-sport game tournament, not some press conference, please refrain from asking personal questions or non-related topics to our participants otherwise we won't hesitate to blacklist you, keep in mind that this is a warning, not a reminder!" Saeki Jie sternly spoke out.
Unbeknownst to Yeri and others, several live streamers also received the same anonymous message but upon seeing how the guy was mobbed by the crowd and with Saeki Jie's warning, no one dares to ask Yeri again.
Yeri was cheered up by Levi and her other teammates, she also received encouragement from international players and strangely enough, Saeki Jie speak up for her although they just met hours ago.
Yeri knew that defending herself will only make her sound guilty but if she washes her hands and persecutes her own brother they will accuse her of being vicious.
Fortunately, whoever schemed against her must have forgotten that she is not a celebrity and that event isn't some fan club assembly.
Generally, the people present are there for the game not to witness a drama! so it was better to put up a 'tough front while broken inside' kind of image rather than saying something that can be exploited.
Reality is, when public opinion is concerned there's no such thing as truth and a lie, she could have said something but it's a bitter truth that people will only believe what they wanted to hear and see.
"Beauty, if you sign up as my artist it doesn't matter if your brother was innocent or not, I can help you with his case and clean his reputation." Saeki guaranteed, winking at her.
Yeri looked at Saeki meaningfully, just like Shin Keir this man is also from the great noble clan.
If he says he can do it then it's possible, she's been stumbling in the dark for year's trying to resolve her brother's case, it's not only exhausting but if there's a higher authority behind it then it's time she needs a backer.
Shin Keir is unpredictable and dangerous, who knows what he will ask in return if she owed him a favour, however, Saeki Jie only wants her to sign as an artist and compared to Shin Keir, maybe he's easy to manipulate?
In the first place, the only reason she didn't want to be famous was that it will be hard to live an unrestrained, wanton life if you are in the limelight but for her brother's sake maybe it's time to give up that dream?
"I'll think about it," Yeri answered to Saeki's delight.
"Alright, Beauty how about a dinner with me to discuss this further?" Saeki felt extremely elated.
"Yeah, you can arrange for one." Yeri didn't mind.
The event proceeded like no commotion ever happened, soon the International players exited leaving only the one's to promote the game.

"Ahhhh!!!"
Calin Ricci violently threw her laptop, smashing it against the car floor.
During the live streaming, she set up a fake account and sent a message to random streamers who were active on the dashboard.
Regrettably, these people are all useless!
"Yeri Zhi! you're good!" Calin mumbled biting her lower lip. "Hah! this is only the beginning just you wait."

Since Shin Keir hated the crowd, they were directed to a VIP room upon arriving since his rule is to simply say some words at the closing as one of the major sponsors.
"Boss, this- Miss Zhi is a participant?" Secretary Yun was the first to notice the people on the stage as he looked at the wide led screens.
"Oh~ it's bunny!" Tristan was also surprised and nudge Shin Keir, "Why didn't you tell me she's a pro-gamer? and it seems she's on the same team with that fool Saeki."
Shin Keir's brows furrowed he had thought she came there to watch, no wonder she stopped replying to his messages, still, why did she keep it a secret from him?
"Find out all the details." Shin Keir told Secretary Yun and the latter immediately left.
"Maybe she's just afraid you will see her as a nerd, Afterall with your position any woman will feel insecure." Tristan patted Shin Keir's shoulder.
Nonetheless, it isn't the reason why Shin Keir has a gloomy expression, he had her investigated the first time they met yet, there was no information that she's acquainted with Xian Song and now this?
Why is he surrounded by incompetent people?!
