The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead - Chapter 281

Chapter 281: Chapter 279 Chi Family’s Blockade

Star Network.

The top search result was the news of a celebrity couple’s divorce, not the radiation-resistant seeds.

Continuing down, there was not even one in the top ten.

That was unscientific, or, to put it bluntly, people could tell there was interference.

Xiaohe Tieba.

The fans of Little River Live, 99% of them rushed to this forum, but when they opened it, they discovered it had been blocked.

The reason was “suspected of violations.”

What violations?

Next door showing arms and legs isn’t a violation but discussing food is?

Everyone was full of complaints with nowhere to vent.

A huge piece of news, known only to themselves, couldn’t be shared outwardly.

Mingming, who told them the news, was indifferent to its spread.

This feeling was suffocating them.

On Star Network, an odd scene started to emerge during the comment section of the celebrity divorce news.

[It’s not Da He who was eating on stream, selling undercooked rice.]

[Rice wrapped in husk, saying it’s not afraid of “sunlight.”]

[It’s tough for the two talking above; if anyone could understand this, they would go insane.]

[Who did this offend for it to become a sensitive word?]

[The stakes are too high.]

[I’m tempted to buy it.]

[Who wouldn’t be? It’s rice.]

[What’s this? Who hired you, Water Army?]

[Have you ever seen the Water Army idle chatting in someone else’s comment section?]

Words like seed, not afraid of radiation, and Little River Live had been set as sensitive words, banned from appearing on Star Network.

Those who knew the news were frenzied, chatting in code under other hot searches to quench their thirst for gossip.

Most people had an idea that such a blockade was related to the seeds’ interests, which likely involved the first family, the Chi Family.

Although many were worried about Little River Live, most were not ready to oppose the Chi Family for a stream.

So they simply vented their surprise and displayed that they knew this news.

Some were very interested in the seeds but were afraid to act.

They were waiting, watching.

Waiting for an outcome, observing whether it was safe.

The very instigators of all this, the Chi Family, were also holding a temporary meeting on the matter.

At the head of the table sat Chi Zhong, Family Head of the Chi Family, surrounded by his sons and several executives.

“Second, explain what happened.”

Chi Family Second Son stood up, his physique somewhat like his father’s–medium build, slightly thinner, but his features were much more refined, showing strong maternal genes.

“Father, Little River Live has not responded to my messages. Tonight during the stream, they suddenly announced they were selling seeds, but only to small families, not to large clans.”

“My son believes this is a clear refusal, even a provocation toward the Chi Family.”

The words of the Second Young Master Chi had many agreeing that Little River Live was indeed unwise.

Chi Zhong, sitting at the head, asked another question, “Can’t you find their location?”

A lean man stood up and bowed to Chi Zhong.

“Family Head, I am incompetent. I could not break through their defenses and locate their coordinates.”

Chi Zhong, without blaming him, gestured for him to sit down and after a moment of contemplation said, “That must be what they are relying on.”

“I remember, the Yan Family has dealings with them.”

Second Young Master Chi immediately responded.

“Father, I’ve already communicated with the Yan Family. Although they trade, they don’t even know the other party’s name; it’s just money exchanged for goods, untraceable.”

The entire Chi Family never considered the possibility that the Yan Family might be lying because they believed the Yan Family wouldn’t dare.

The Yan Family indeed didn’t lie; they genuinely didn’t know.

“Additionally, I’ve spoken with Yu Zeming, and he also claimed ignorance, which remains unverified.”

After hearing the reports, Chi Zhong became a bit interested in Little River Live.

They were well-prepared.

“Second, order a complete blockade of Little River Live, even anything related to them. I want them unable to sell even if they have food.”

“Yes.”

A sentence that seemed to determine life and death.

The feeling of holding such power was truly intoxicating.

No wonder so many people strive to climb higher.

In the eyes of the Chi Family, even if someone from a stream showed real ability, without substantial capital and force, they were still nothing.

What they didn’t realize was that some people relished turning the tides against adversity.

A huge piece of news about radiation-free seeds was suppressed by the Chi Family without stirring any ripples.

And Fu Yunhe, invincible on the internet, did not change these settings.

In the eyes of the Chi Family, this was a seal on them, but in Shutong’s view, it was giving them time.

Only Shutong and Fu Yunhe in the small wooden house truly understood what was happening; others were focused solely on their work.

The day the stream ended, Shutong’s small shop was closed for price gouging under investigation.

Shutong made no objections. Close it.

The day after the stream, people in the small wooden house still labored, harvested, and farmed.

At seven o’clock that evening, it was only natural to find Little River Live’s account had been blocked for a suspected violation, though no one knew exactly what.

Shutong waved at Fu Yunhe and called, “Perfect timing, you’ve been wanting to take a holiday anyway.”

Fu Yunhe, approaching, was amused by Shutong unexpectedly.

“Did you see through that?”

“Of course, you hardly work, yet you insist on helping us harvest, stopping broadcasts for three days.”

“Moreover, you don’t love cooking big meals anymore; you’ve been asking Mr. Fan to help.”

Shutong pointed to a chair beside her, “Sit down.”

The two of them sat leisurely, not the least anxious.

Whatever blockades, those were for outsiders.

As for the current Shutong, she had revenue from her small shop, which was a bonus. Without it didn’t matter; there were other ways to make money.

Plus, she had Fu Yunhe beside her.

They had land and food, what could they fear?

“Xiao He, tell me straight, how much money do you have?”

Shutong’s expression was simultaneously curious and serious, prompting Fu Yunhe to ask a question first.

“So what’s your plan to fight back?”

“Huh? How did you know I wanted to fight back?”

Fu Yunhe helplessly looked at Shutong and said, “You not fighting back would be like Ha Ha saying he won’t eat.”

Shutong was just teasing Fu Yunhe; she stretched lazily and as she lowered her arms, she said, “How to fight back depends on how much money you have.”

“Come on, show me your assets.”
