Chapter 469 - 144: Exhibition Match Roster_2
Can’t play or eat, what can you do.
"At that time..."
"Aunt Li, what are you talking about?" Xue Feiqun walked in with Xue Feijun from the entrance, "Our sister-in-law is already stressed enough, it’d be better if you said less about the kids, or her mood will only worsen."
Aunt Li shut her mouth and turned to leave.
"Why are you back at this time?" Yi Xue’s eyes were red, she wiped her nose.
"Came to tell big brother something." The Xue Family’s stocks are affected; they can’t just sit by.
Xue Feiqun was elegant and possessed a dignified demeanor in every move.
The concern expressed in his words made Yi Xue feel comforted.
In contrast, Xue Feijun was unkempt, his long hair tied casually still looked messy. His expression was cold and indifferent, making it difficult to discern what he was thinking.
"Feiting is upstairs in the study, you guys should go find him, he’s probably going back to the office to work overtime later."
To stabilize the stock market, Xue Feiqun had already started funding and purchasing to minimize the decline.
Yi Xue usually didn’t participate in conversations among the three brothers, she returned to the bedroom to rest, but she tossed and turned unable to sleep.
Always feeling like a storm is brewing for the Xue Family, and the Yi Family could also be impacted.
Wondering if she could talk to Su Xiaocai, if there’s anything she wants, both the Yi Family and Xue Family would be willing to cooperate.
...
Xue Huiyi temporarily withdrew from the tournament, taken to a detention center, but the buzz didn’t last long.
Her fans shouted for several days, finding they couldn’t change the outcome.
They went to plead under Su Xiaocai’s account, urging her not to rely on power to confine people or act willfully.
Everyone knows about Su Xiaocai’s authority.
Seeing their mindless pleas, Su Xiaocai was nearly laughing herself to death.
Failing one scheme, these fans devised another plan.
They began attacking Su Xiaocai from bizarre angles.
Using the banner of feminism, they said Su Xiaocai’s name was dismissive and belittled women, claiming that any caring adoptive parent wouldn’t choose such an unpleasant name.
Then they said Daddy Su had ill intentions, just a petty Planet Master, a farmer, the daughter he raised having problematic ideas.
Su Xiaocai simply ignored it.
The name has nothing to do with dismissiveness or feminism.
Her original name was Yu Li, and when Daddy Su asked if she remembered her name or wanted her old name.
Su Xiaocai didn’t want it, and straightforwardly said her name was Su Xiaocai, so Daddy Su changed her name.
When registering the household, Daddy Su wrote Su Shaocai; ’Shao’ meant ’beautiful’, and ’Cai’ added to the beauty of ’Shao’.
In the end, Su Xiaocai strongly opposed and personally filled it as Su Xiaocai.
That’s how this name came to be.
Between Xiaocai and Shaocai, the easier one to write was, of course, Xiaocai, so the name Su Xiaocai was entirely her own choice, fully her own doing.
Every child, if given the choice, would choose simpler strokes.
Such mindless remarks, need not be seen, just block and it’s done.
Once you argue back, it becomes a never-ending confrontation, which is unnecessary, fundamentally unnecessary.
Su Xiaocai stated she liked sensible fans, not playing those fan-circle games, so fans mostly ignored these evidently problematic claims.
Unpleasant remarks can be left to the company’s PR.
Gradually, these statements calmed down.
Su Xiaocai’s goal was to deal with Xue Huiyi, arguing with her over a hot search that was stirred up by Xue Huiyi herself.
She used the public to pressure for increased police efforts to investigate her.
As long as more people had seen the video, the one hidden behind wouldn’t be able to make sneaky moves.
She couldn’t believe a Superpower User, however strong, could alter a ten-star video.
Unknowingly, more than three weeks passed since the competition.
The Extraordinary Island plan and Extraordinary New World got on track; the workload reduced, allowing Yu Haoming to handle it solo, and Su Xiaocai sent Zu Yang to handle preliminary work for the simulation pod and mecha factory, ensuring that the company’s name and documents were finalized so an application could be completed within three days.
The single combat tournament was about to enter a new round.
Currently, Ji Heng, Hu Ping, Wu Qingqing, Wu Feiyang, Liu Xun, and Pan Mingjie haven’t lost yet, while Li Shanchun lost one match; his situation is somewhat precarious.
He can’t afford to lose in the upcoming matches, losing would make it hard to secure a spot.
Although the second round of the single combat tournament can accommodate ten million contestants, the number seems quite large.
But this is derived from three billion people.
Only a few hundred haven’t lost, around a hundred thousand have lost one match.
Two losses send the statistics soaring, exceeding ten million.
His match starts on the second day after Ji Heng and others enter the next round.
He’ll compete against those who haven’t lost more than five matches at midnight.
The faster one wins, accumulating points quickly to reach 200, will secure a spot for the advancement tournament.
