Chapter 818

Geshu Yuan even gave a media interview, which was broadcasted on a TV station.

Ye Xingguang sat in the queen’s office, opened the news, and saw Geshu Yuan’s face wrapped in gauze, only leaving her eyes visible, followed by her indignant voice, “That woman, she slandered our most sacred deity in our hearts. She called our Ocean God a mermaid, so she claimed she was a mermaid and even said our Princess should graciously step down and yield her place upon meeting her. I was so furious; I couldn’t help but hit her!”

Ye Xingguang lay in the queen’s office chair, hearing Geshu Yuan’s words, and almost wanted to award her an Oscar for best actress.

By Geshu Yuan’s hospital bed, her sisters stood, each furiously giving interviews to the underwater news reporters:

“That’s right, it was that woman who started the physical altercation! She claimed she was a mermaid and thus our Ocean God. Everyone who sees her should kneel and devoutly worship her! She even slandered the Princess, and Yuan Yuan couldn’t stand it anymore and confronted her, and then she hit Yuan Yuan, accusing Yuan Yuan of disrespecting the divine. Seeing Yuan Yuan getting hit, we stepped forward to help! That foreign woman, she’s too barbaric! Just because she is a national treasure in country A, does she have the right to insult our queen?”

“That woman, she went too far, relying on the fact that she’s a mermaid, and since our country regards mermaids as divine beings, she wanted to throw her weight around in our country! She’s not our Ocean God at all! Our country’s Ocean God is our revered Princess. She counts for nothing. If she dares to slander the Princess again, I will hit her again. It’s a matter of national dignity!”

“The doctor said Yuan Yuan’s face was almost disfigured—all caused by that woman’s scratching…”

Upon seeing the news report, the citizens of the empire overwhelmingly supported Geshu Yuan, calling for justice on her behalf, and some even went to Xia Yanyan’s hotel to stage a protest, demanding Xia Yanyan leave the empire!

Unable to withstand the intense emotions of the people, the hotel manager personally went to Xia Yanyan’s room and tactfully suggested that she check out.noveldrama

Xia Yanyan was beaten, had no place to argue her case, was framed, and now had to vacate her hotel room, which made her faint several times from anger.

Due to the incident, the tourists traveling with her had to put their seven-day tour on hold, hiding in the hotel, fearing that the protesting underwater citizens in the hotel lobby might vent their anger on them.

However, on a live streaming website in country A, many people were still waiting to watch Zhou Shuangshuang continue her broadcast; the number of online viewers had soared from over ten million to two hundred million. Not only did the citizens of country A want to watch Zhou Shuangshuang’s broadcast of the underwater city, but netizens from other countries also downloaded the streaming app to glimpse the high-tech civilization of the underwater city.

“Beautiful host, why haven’t you gone out today, why are you still in the hotel? Aren’t you supposed to visit that sacred tree which brings light to the underwater city today?”

Zhou Shuangshuang stood in front of the hotel room’s floor-to-ceiling window and complained, “Sorry, viewers, I probably can’t go out today. Miss Xia and a local noblewoman got into a physical altercation, both are injured, and now the local citizens are gathering in the hotel lobby protesting, demanding Miss Xia return to her country. We can’t leave the hotel either.”
