Chapter 66 -60: Ask Chu Yiyi to Send
This time the trending search lasted especially long, hanging on the list for several days, which showed how much attention netizens had on this case.
Besides despising the human traffickers and praising the police, what they were most curious about was the identity of Juejue.
Netizens exclaimed, “With such a serious case of human trafficking this time, Juejue will definitely show up, right?”
Because of this case of human traffickers, the police, after investigating and interrogating the criminals, found many children and young girls who had been abducted and trafficked before, and also brought some family seekers who were not usually noticed by the netizens gradually into everyone’s sight.
At the official family reunification event, many parents, reunited with their lost children, cried in front of the cameras, expressing their excited emotions, and their gratitude towards the police and Jiang Ning.
They didn’t know Jiang Ning’s identity or name, but it didn’t affect their gratitude towards her in their hearts.
Many netizens who saw the live broadcast couldn’t help but cry with emotion.
If Miss Terminal Illness was willing to show up, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say she would have instantly gained a fortune in wealth and popularity.
The number of netizens following Miss Terminal Illness online was increasing, and many even edited the few times Jiang Ning had appeared into a cool video.
Even Zhang Lang asked Jiang Ning several times, “Won’t you really show up? So many people like you!”
Jiang Ning also saw those videos and news, and she shook her head, “No, I won’t.”
Being able to help so many people while completing the tasks given by the System, she felt quite content, and she had already received the reward from the System for the mission, which was enough for her.
Zhang Lang was a police officer, not involved in the circle, and he never paid attention to the entertainment industry’s happenings. But even Zhang Lang could see how much the netizens loved Jiang Ning as Miss Terminal Illness and her soaring popularity online, let alone other people in the entertainment industry.
Huo Miao stared at the hot search on the social platform, rolled her eyes involuntarily, and said with an impatient tone, “Why is it her on the trending search again today!”
With just over a week before she was due to enter the program, Huo Miao and her agent discussed buying a hot search in the next few days to attract a last wave of fans before joining the crew.
Her agent, Liu Hong, also thought that Huo Miao’s suggestion was good, as it could not only attract fans but also increase Huo Miao’s popularity.
Therefore, Huo Miao deliberately left Capital City and went to other cities to play for two days, then took a flight back.
At Capital City Airport, Liu Hong had already arranged for paparazzi to stake out to capture beautiful candid shots of Huo Miao.
The money for buying the trending search came from Huo Miao’s personal account, and as a result, she only stayed on the trending list for a few minutes before being pushed off by the hot search of Fuhua Public Security!
Finally, when the heat of Fuhua Public Security subsided, the popularity of the entries about Miss Terminal Illness surged up again.
The trending search Huo Miao bought was time-sensitive; she had bought it for three days, spending a seven-figure sum.
And yet, all she did during those three days was watch others trend!
The entry about Huo Miao appearing at the airport barely ranked at the end of the trending list and failed to attract much attention from the netizens.
Of course, this was not because Huo Miao’s spending power had failed, but the topic of Miss Terminal Illness was simply too popular, reaching the terrifying amounts of nine hundred million views and two hundred million likes.
On one hand, there were genuine, reliable figures, and on the other hand, there was the artificial heat bought with money; the difference between them, in terms of who was higher and who was lower, was clear at a glance.
Huo Miao’s money for buying the trending search spot had gone down the drain, which made her incredibly angry.

Looking at the trending search entries about Miss Terminal Illness, Huo Miao found them utterly displeasing no matter how she looked at them.
This was already the second time.
Last time, the Huo family Members had held a celebration banquet for her at the villa, only for Jiang Ning to kick her into the water. Huo Miao could have made it to the trending searches with that incident, but instead, the meddling deeds of Miss Terminal Illness at Tianxin Shopping Plaza had unexpectedly hijacked the spotlight.
That day, the entry of Miss Terminal Illness courageously confronting the thug at Tianxin Shopping Plaza had parachuted its way into the trending searches, crushing Huo Miao’s popularity into non-existence.
Now it was happening again!
The exact same thing, once more!
The trending search had been snatched away by the same person again!
Huo Miao’s expression was dark, and in her heart, she had already developed a strong sense of animosity towards this Miss Terminal Illness, whom she had never met before.
Liu Hong sat beside her, dealing with official business on a tablet, and had long since grown accustomed to Huo Miao’s sullen expression.
Huo Miao’s fans often praised her for being gentle and kind, graceful and poised, and even the Huo family thought of Huo Miao as a delicate, pretty girl in need of protection. But actually, in Liu Hong’s eyes, Huo Miao was way more scheming than the average person, and even the Huo family was unaware of her truest, cunning side, which had nothing to do with being gentle and kind.
However, Liu Hong felt that it was better for Huo Miao to be scheming; those naive and clueless ‘silly sweethearts’ in the entertainment industry would only be devoured to the bone by others, and wouldn’t even know how they died.
“It seems this trending search plan has failed,” Liu Hong put down the tablet. “The photos they took for you at the airport were definitely fine, but the topic wasn’t trending enough, so it was easy for netizens to overlook.”
“The heat of the topic,” Huo Miao frowned.
The most trending topics were actually about Jiang Ning.
Previously, to divert attention, Huo Miao and Liu Hong had arranged for someone to release negative news about Jiang Ning, inciting disgust from netizens and fans. Then, Huo Miao deliberately leaked information about being bullied by Jiang Ning and subtly instigated a fan war against Jiang Ning during interviews.
Thanks to Jiang Ning, Huo Miao had gained a lot of new fans during that period, and her existing fanbase became even more loyal.
“Jiang Ning has already moved out; if she hadn’t, we could have still used the opportunity to take some offsetting photos and leak them.” Huo Miao frowned, and for the first time, felt that Jiang Ning moving out wasn’t entirely positive.
Since that day, she hadn’t seen Jiang Ning again and felt as if Jiang Ning had suddenly slipped out of her control.
Liu Hong suggested, “Jiang Ning has also joined the ‘Survive for 30 Days’ show. Do we want to seek someone to stand up for you, to stir up some hype?”
Huo Miao thought Liu Hong meant to mobilize her fan club, and couldn’t help but say, “After the program team officially announced the guest lineup, didn’t the fans already go and curse in the comment section? Both the program team and Jiang Ning’s Weibo accounts were as silent as the dead, without any response.”
Liu Hong shook her head. “I’m not suggesting the fans do it, but rather someone else from within the circle.”
As Huo Miao looked at her, puzzled, Liu Hong advised, “Aren’t you on good terms with Chu Yiyi? Get her to do it for you.”
Huo Miao bowed her head in thought for a while, finally understanding the meaning of Liu Hong’s words. After the program team had officially announced the guests, her fans had already cursed in the comment sections of the program team and Jiang Ning, so doing it again would be ineffective. But Chu Yiyi was different. As a fellow entertainment industry actress, casually defending her would be perfectly natural. And if she were to spend some money boosting her own popularity…
