Chapter 585 : Rumors Were Everywhere
Not only was the man extremely rich, but he was also very good-looking. Li Zhou was already the entire package.
However, if he was only a privileged young man, people would only curse at him if he had been chosen as an ambassador for the tennis team. After all, it would seem as if he had bought his way in.
However, not only was he extremely privileged, but he was also a well-known member of the Royal Tennis Club. He’d also be participating in the tournament this year.
It was only reasonable for him to be known as their ambassador.
Just then, Lin Xin saw an article that had popped up on her page. It seemed to be comparing the ambassadors from the two associations.
It seemed that the author was ridiculing how the association had chosen a celebrity to become their ambassador.
He was bringing up Sheng Ting and Li Zhou, stirring up the emotions online.
As expected, the comments and insults from the netizens were all directed at Sheng Ting, ridiculing him for accepting the Sports Association’s offer to become their ambassador.
They even left malicious comments and insults under his profile.
However, his supporters were also extremely resilient.
Within a few minutes, his fans already replied to everyone who had posted against him. All of them were butting heads with his haters. It was definitely a sight to see.
Just then, her eyes widened. It seemed that Li Zhou decided to add more fuel to the flame.
He had posted a picture of himself playing tennis, openly mocking Sheng Ting for not knowing a thing about a game. The only thing he knew how to do was to dance, which made him an unsuitable candidate.
His words quickly gained the approval of the masses.
[That’s right! How could a celebrity be an ambassador for a sport he knows nothing about?]
[I originally thought that his songs were pretty good and that he wasn’t the type to chase after money. But by the looks of it, he only ever cares about the money. It’s disappointing.]
[These celebrities obviously aren’t sincere about what they advertise. They earn so much money, yet they don’t even know when to give back. It’s unfair!]
[It’s easy to be an ambassador. All you have to do is accept the money, sign the contract, and be done with it!]
Upon seeing all these comments, Lin Xin felt as if she wanted to explode in anger.
Sheng Ting really wasn’t the type of person who’d pursue fame and fortune.
He was an A-list celebrity. In fact, he didn’t even have to accept the Association’s offer to become their ambassador. This wasn’t about the fame and fortune that came with it.
He didn’t have to leech on the Sports Association for some likes.
If there was a real leech around here, it would’ve been Li Zhou.
Were these people crazy?
However, it seemed that they were. All of them were sending him to hate comments and creating memes about his recent events.
They didn’t care about the truth. All they wanted was to jump on the bandwagon.
Lin Xin scowled. Weren’t they being too much? Couldn’t they just wait and hear his side of the story? Didn’t this say more about Li Zhou than it did about Sheng Ting?
Don’t they know how harmful their words and rumors could be?
If it weren’t for the fact that Sheng Ting had tons of fans, he would’ve been continually badgered by the majority of the netizens.
Even his fan group chat was in total uproar.
Lin Xin’s jaw dropped.
She had been working so hard on her practice questions that she muted all the messages on her phone. That’s why she had only found out about this now.
She couldn’t help but pull Yao Tang to the side.
“Sister Tang, how is Sheng Ting recently? Do you mind telling me that his fans would always be by his side and to not take all these rumors to heart?”
This time, Yao Tang was confused. “What’s the matter?”
Did something happen to him?
Lin Xin was speechless
She didn’t know?
She had thought that the reason why Yao Tang was so late was that she had gone to comfort him. It seemed that she had thought too much.
Lin Xin handed over her phone.
“Take a look for yourself,” she said sadly. “They’re all insulting him. There are rumors everywhere.”
