Chapter 627 Self-directed Show
A cold glint flashed across Dou Tianyi’s eyes, but he said, “Yes, something happened at one of the restaurants under my name, and it has been resolved.”
“I took a look just now. It seems to be related to a host on the Onlooker Livestream Platform.”
Dou Tianyi glanced at her and said without batting an eyelid, “It was a branch manager who didn’t handle it well and was caught red-handed.”
Wen Jingping lowered her head and whispered, “I think… this matter isn’t that simple.”
“It’s not that simple?” Dou Tianyi looked at her with interest. “Do you mean that this matter might not be just about my subordinates?”
“Yes.” Wen Jingping revealed a troubled and conflicted expression. After a moment of hesitation, she said, “In reality, in order to save up for tuition and living expenses, I used to be a host on the Internet for a period of time. Before this host appeared, I was still the new host recommended by this livestreaming platform’s gourmet section.”
“Oh?” Dou Tianyi raised his brows. “Then why didn’t you continue your livestream later on and instead joined the entertainment industry?”
Wen Jingping pursed her lips and said sadly, “When she first entered the platform, I happened to take on a variety show and stopped livestreaming for a period of time. When I had time to go online, I received some reminders from my livestream’s viewers, saying that someone purposely imitated my livestream method and copied some of the dishes that I broadcasted live. I was very angry at that time, so I warned her online, but who knew…”
“What?”
“I didn’t expect this person to have such a powerful backer. She turned the truth around and said that I was purposely trying to stir up her popularity. She even got someone from the research institute to back her up. At that time, I was just an ordinary small host on the platform. How could I compete with a giant like the research institute?”

The rims of Wen Jingping’s eyes immediately turned red, and she looked like a weak and pitiful person being bullied by power.
“Not long after, the platform terminated my contract with me. They even detained all the income I earned from my livestream channel, saying that I violated the company’s rules and smeared the reputation of the platform. They demanded that I pay compensation. Not only was I unable to get the money that originally belonged to me, but I also had to pay a large sum of money to the platform.”
Dou Tianyi didn’t say anything. Wen Jingping gritted her teeth and continued, “Later, I realized something was wrong and wanted to look for those fans who reminded me that I was plagiarized, but I realized…”
Dou Tianyi looked at her with interest. “Found what?”
“I realized that those people seemed to have vanished into thin air.”
Dou Tianyi saw through her thoughts and smiled. “You suspect that those people are trying to get close to you with a motive, and they’re trying to provoke you into finding trouble with her?”
Wen Jingping was silent for a while before she said hoarsely, “I just feel like what happened that time is similar to what happened this time.”
Wen Jingping was vague, but she hinted that Dou Tianyi’s incident was probably a show directed by someone. Whether it was her or Dou Tianyi’s manager, they had all been tricked.
Dou Tianyi’s face sank as he coldly said, “I understand. I will get someone to investigate.” Wen Jingping thought he believed her words and was about to go find trouble with that small host, and a smile flashed across her eyes. “Then you can continue the discussion with Department Head Li, I’ll go cook.”
“Go on.” Dou Tianyi let go of Wen Jingping’s hand and watched her leave.
Once she left, Dou Tianyi’s expression darkened. “Do you believe her words?”
Li Yue was stunned. He subconsciously glanced at Dou Tianyi and tactfully said, “The people from the research institute aren’t stupid.” He knew very well if they would stand up for a woman who was only putting on an act.
