The program team would post interesting video clips online every day, so the dance game video from that day was immediately uploaded to various platforms.
Because she was exhausted from dancing during the day, Lin Xiaoman slept soundly that night and didn’t check online comments. When she woke up the next day and checked her phone, she discovered her Weibo had exploded again.
Many people had left comments on her most recent Weibo post:
— Her posturing is so disgusting, can she get out of the show?!!!
— Who wants to watch her? I want to see our Huanbao, ugly people should stop showing off…
— Notice how everyone hates her? She’s really talented at being disliked. Just when she was gaining fans through dance, now she’s lost all goodwill. If I were to become a fan again, I’d livestream eating sh*t!
— At a glance, she’s clearly a sl*t. Did she sleep her way up?
— #Was Lin Xiaoman eliminated today?# No matter how well she dances, her character is unwatchable.
…
Lin Xiaoman frowned slightly and opened the official Weibo.
In the dance practice video posted last night, she had stolen the spotlight throughout, giving others no chance to dance. She looked arrogant, mockingly imitating others’ dance moves, making those around her feel awkward.
She was maliciously edited.
Lin Xiaoman immediately understood.
The editor deliberately cut together several of her dance moments, intentionally shortening the time to show her eagerness to show off. Then they transformed her coaching others into mockery and imitation, slightly shifting the audio and expressions to make her interview responses seem like she was criticizing her teammates.
The situation had been brewing since morning and escalated by afternoon. Anonymous accounts claimed she bullied people during training, with some saying they witnessed her verbal harassment, tagging Ning Yumo.
Ning Yumo took a peace-keeping approach, asking everyone to stop discussing it.
The online spectators, receiving a response from the involved party, were thrilled, understanding that Ning Yumo’s anger was because of Lin Xiaoman’s bullying. Public opinion instantly reversed, with everyone saying Ning Yumo was pitiful and cute, so angry that she could only smash her own phone, wondering if she even needed a phone.
During her break, Lin Xiaoman was browsing Weibo, thinking about how to resolve the situation.
Her phone suddenly rang.
