At first, the public was very sympathetic after knowing about Liang Yan’s tragic life experience. “Heartbroken Liang Yan,” trended on the hot search. However, when the netizens opened it, the most popular comment on it was the one that read, “Damn, no wonder Liang Yan could move bricks excellently! Hahahahaha…”
The young girl in the picture looked plain and simple, but her facial features showed that she was a beautiful girl and identical to Liang Yan.
The direction of the comments changed into a completely different direction.
[Damn…. Hahahaha… No wonder Liang Yan never posted pictures of herself as a child… Hahahaha…]
[So jealous! How did Liang Yan develop her current figure when she practiced weightlifting from a young age? Lemon.jpg.]
[Oh my God, she’s so damn cute!]
[Practicing weightlifting at a young age is bad for a child’s physical development. I feel so sorry for her…]
[I can’t help but feel happy looking at those two plump, red cheeks.]
[Liang Yan seems to be really strong.]
[I didn’t know weightlifting could be considered cute.]
[Looking at Liang Yan’s facial features, you can see that she didn’t have plastic surgery. She has the same high nose and pointy chin.]
As a result of this, the number of people who searched for “Heartbroken Liang Yan,” became fewer and fewer, and the “Weightlifting Fairy, Liang Yan,” topped the hot search.
Before this photo was released to the public, no one would really associate a delicate and elegant actress like Liang Yan to weightlifting. Because of this event, the photo was shared across the internet by tens of thousands of people.
Liang Yan was surprised.
At first, she worried that if she showed the photo to the fans, they would ridicule her, breaking her heart. The result was so out of her expectations, and she didn’t even think that the comments would turn out like this.
100,000 followers was added to her Weibo.
If Liang Yan knew this would happen, she would have posted it even earlier. Suddenly, her mobile phone rang. She pressed the answer button, and Chen Xueyun’s voice reverberated through the receiver, “Liang Yan, stop playing tricks on me!”
Hearing the angry voice from the other woman, Liang Yan’s relaxed mood disappeared, and a trace of loneliness replaced it. But then she inhaled deeply to recover and spoke in a calm voice, “Tricks? I only spoke the truth, right?”
“I’ll have a press conference, and I’m going to sue you, you white-eyed wolf! I’ll drag you to court and destroy your reputation until you have nothing left!”
“Go ahead. Sue me,” Liang Yan replied as her hands clenched the phone in her hand.
Liang Yan’s casual replies were out of Chen Xueyun’s expectations, so she froze with fear.
Liang Yan listened in silence, and when she was about to hang up, Chen Xueyun’s unwilling voice reverberated again, “Do you think you can get rid of me so easily? Dream on, you were born from my stomach!”
“As long as I’m alive, I’ll still be your mother. You want to break off our mother-daughter relationship? Don’t even imagine it!”
“You won’t give me money? Just wait.”
Chen Xueyun hung up first.
Liang Yan gazed at the call log, staying still. Then, she sniffed her nose, feeling a sense of sourness.
A mocking smile formed on her lips.

At Gu Dong City, somewhere in a hotel, Lu Lincheng watched the happenings in Weibo today with a frown.
Chen Xueyun complained about her daughter, Liang Yan, in the media, so Liang Yan had no choice but to release a series of recordings at 7 pm. These recordings successfully reversed the tide of public opinion, causing countless people to trend, “Heartache for Liang Yan.”
But as of now, the top trending photo was Liang Yan’s childhood weightlifting photos.
Lu Lincheng zoomed in on her photo.
When she was a child, Liang Yan’s plump cheeks that were red from exertion and pursed lips.
He focused his attention on Liang Yan’s eyes in the photo. Her eyes were glowing, hiding strength and a stubborn spirit beyond her peers.
Lu Lincheng gently closed his eyes as he recalled that one night when she was also like this. Her cheeks flushed with redness, and her eyes were hazy as she hung on his neck tightly as if begging for her dear life. She cried, “Help me… help me… please…”
She was like a piece of cowhide that couldn’t be shaken off.
Then, after that, when he was very angry, she just hung her head while she kept twiddling on her thumb, “I’m sorry, I thought…”
“Just don’t care about me. I promise I’ll stay quiet and won’t rub on your popularity.”
“I’m really sorry.”
“You can divorce me whenever you want, I’ll definitely sign.”
Lu Lincheng sighed.
When Liang Yan didn’t accept the alimony, dryly crossing it off on the divorce papers, he thought that she was being arrogant and confident because she came from a good family.
He just found out that he didn’t seem to know much about Liang Yan.
