My Livestreaming Metaphysics & Gossip Became an Internet Sensation Ch. 85

She found out she was pregnant.

And just like that, the Lai Yunyi she thought she knew was gone. When he heard the news, the soft, gentle man disappeared. His tone turned cold and suspicious, laced with accusations.

He started implying she got pregnant on purpose, like she'd planned it all. Like she'd trapped him—even though he was the one who said he was being careful the whole time.

She couldn't believe it—Lai Yunyi actually thought that way?

After the initial outburst, he seemed to calm down, saying it was just a moment of panic. "You know someone like me... I can't afford to have a kid," he told her.

But the meaning behind his words was clear as day: he wanted her to get rid of the baby.

She felt torn. Deep down, she didn't want to let go of the child. But at the same time, she knew—it was a life that was never going to be allowed to exist.

And yet, before she could even go through with the abortion, she accidentally discovered something else—Lai Yunyi wasn't only dating her.

Her blood ran cold. Furious, she stormed over to confront him.

What she didn't expect was for him to just own up to it. No excuses, no pretending. He'd already gotten bored of her, and now that she knew the truth, he didn't even bother to fake it anymore. His expression twisted into a mocking sneer. "You really fell for all that stupid sweet talk? God, you're dumb."

Something in her snapped. She lashed out, shoving him, grabbing at him, screaming like she'd lost her mind. In the middle of it all, he shoved her back.

Pain shot through her stomach like lightning. She doubled over. And just like that—she lost the baby.

But what broke her wasn't just losing the child.

It was what came after.

The doctor told her the miscarriage had caused serious damage—and that it might be almost impossible for her to ever get pregnant again.

As for Lai Yunyi—he vanished. Completely ghosted her. No calls, no replies, nothing.

It was only after all this that she found out the full truth—Lai Yunyi had never just been with her. He was juggling multiple girlfriends at the same time, all while keeping up his clean, perfect celebrity image.

Even at that concert—the one that felt so special to her—there were other girls seated in VIP, being treated just as kindly by the staff. Just like her.

She'd been one of many. And everything she thought had been real... had just been mass-produced affection.

The heartbreak destroyed her. Again and again, her emotions crashed. But in the end, she made up her mind—if her life had already been ruined, then there was no way she was letting Lai Yunyi get away unscathed.

Comments scrolling across the screen:

"Damn... that's tragic. I already didn't like Lai Yunyi, now I really don't."

"Qingqing looks pissed. I feel like Lai Yunyi's about to have the worst week of his life."

"LMAO I never liked that dude anyway. Always pushing his brand and image nonstop. Don't know what his fans even see in him."

The more Jiang Yiqing listened to her story, the darker his expression became. If Lai Yunyi could still continue being a celebrity after all this... Forget her—he wouldn't be able to stand it.

He suddenly asked, "That time at the hotel... how much did you drink?"

She blinked, trying to remember. "Not that much, actually. That's the weird part. I've always had a decent tolerance—I shouldn't have blacked out like that."

Jiang Yiqing's eyes turned cold. "It's not weird at all. That's because..." He paused. "Lai Yunyi spiked your drink."

Lai Yunyi was practically pacing a trench into the floor, frustration boiling over. He looked at his manager, who was scrolling through trending topics with a face as dark as thunder.

"I'm screwed if he keeps talking! Think of something, damn it!" Lai Yunyi snapped.

Of course the manager knew that. He was already regretting this whole mess—not because he thought Lai Yunyi had done anything wrong, but because the fallout was now threatening his own career. If he'd just been stricter with him from the start... It didn't matter who Lai Yunyi hurt, but letting it affect his work? That was a problem.

"I am thinking!" he shot back, just as irritated.

"Well, think faster!" Lai Yunyi growled, tugging violently at his hair like a walking embodiment of "angry and useless."

The manager's patience snapped. "Shut up!"

Lai Yunyi stared at him in disbelief. He held back a curse with visible effort—he still needed this guy to clean up the mess for now. He'd deal with him later.

Yes, he was still delusional enough to think there would be a "later."

Suddenly, the manager's eyes lit up with a desperate spark of hope. He grabbed his phone and barked to the assistant, "Call Miaomiao Livestream right now—get them to shut down Jiang Yiqing's stream!"

Lai Yunyi perked up immediately. Yes! That's it! If they shut it down, the whole exposé would be cut off. No more talking, no more dirt being aired in front of tens of thousands of people.

His expression flipped like a switch. "Brother, you're a genius! I knew I could count on you!"

The manager didn't even bother replying. In his mind, he was cursing how stupid Lai Yunyi was. Did he seriously think shutting down a livestream would make everything disappear? It might stop things from getting worse for now, but the damage was already done.

Still, it was the quickest way to stop the bleeding.

The moment of optimism didn't last.

Soon, the assistant called back, sounding frantic. The platform had refused to shut down Jiang Yiqing's stream.

"They said there's nothing wrong with the stream. They can't ban it."

The manager's brows drew tight. That wasn't what he'd expected. Without hesitation, he dialed a higher-up at Miaomiao Livestream himself.

The executive picked up, voice low and resigned. "Look, it's not that I don't want to help. It's that... I can't."

"Don't give me that. It's just a small-time streamer. Don't tell me you can't handle something that simple."

"You don't get it—and I didn't either, until just now. That streamer, he's not just anyone. He's got connections... and not the kind you can cross." The exec's voice dropped to a near-whisper.

The manager froze. When he heard the name, all color drained from his face.

Lai Yunyi, still pacing, turned and asked anxiously, "So? What's happening? Are they shutting it down?"

The manager turned to him, a storm brewing behind his eyes. His voice was low and furious, "How many times have I told you—you're too reckless. And now? Now it's over. You've ruined everything."
