Green Tea Goes Viral After Being Forced to Tell the Truth - Chapter 2.2

Ning Chuchu, who had shocked everyone with her astonishing statements again and again, had completely become numb. She slowly raised her hand to support her forehead, and a rare coldness filled her usually gentle and watery eyes.

What on earth was happening? Why did she seem out of control? And that strange mechanical voice…

After dropping several bombshells in succession, Ning Chuchu fell into silence. No matter how the reporters asked her, she kept her mouth shut and didn’t speak again.

Seriously speaking, if she kept uncontrollably revealing more bombshells, she could forget about surviving in the industry.

Director Song and Liu Mei exchanged a glance and saw a hint of panic in each other’s eyes. They didn’t expect Ning Chuchu to be so tough, and for a moment, they lost their composure.

Ning Chuchu was so aggressive. Was she really trying to break ties with them? Moreover, her confident appearance… Did she have some kind of evidence? The more Director Song thought about it, the more anxious he became, especially when faced with the microphones directed at him and the cameras zooming at him.

He immediately stood up, announced the end of the press conference, and hastily left. Liu Mei also avoided eye contact and quickly slipped away behind him.

Director Song’s intention was to handle the matter privately. He had enough means to threaten and lure Ning Chuchu into changing her stance and “clarify” things for him, which was why he hastily ended the live broadcast.

However, their hasty escape completely contrasted with their previous strong questioning and refutation of Ning Chuchu. No matter how one looked at it, they seemed guilty about something, making the journalists instantly feel energized and eager to dig up the bottom of this matter.

After the live broadcast was cut off, public opinion quickly fermented on the internet.

And the instigator of this turmoil, Ning Chuchu, no longer cared about the various speculations from the outside world. She sat alone in her empty dressing room, with a serious expression on her face, lost in thought.

“Ding! Hello, host. This is the Truth System speaking. In order for us to have a pleasant cooperation in the future, I am now opening a Q&A session. You can ask any questions within my authority, and I will answer them for you!”

The familiar mechanical voice sounded again.

As soon as she thought about how this so-called system had caused her embarrassment, Ning Chuchu felt a tingling sensation in her teeth.

She asked with an unfriendly expression, “Who are you? Why are you bound to me? The things I said just now… did you control me to say them?”

“Host, as I have already said, I am the Truth System. At the same time, I am also the guardian of this world…”

The system’s words opened a new door for Ning Chuchu.

According to the system, the world she was currently in was an entertainment industry novel called “Brilliant Stardom,” and she was the protagonist.

The system was the guardian of this world and had to ensure that she achieved the glorious ending of winning the title of Best Actress and living a happy life, as depicted in the original work.

Ning Chuchu’s mouth twitched. “Are you sure you’re here to help me? I think you’re just here to get rid of me, right?!”

This damn system made her spill all her thoughts. She might not even have a place in this entertainment industry in the future, yet it said that its goal was to ensure that she’d become the Best Actress? Dream on! She had never seen such a drag.

However, the system solemnly said, “Host, I am indeed here to save you. The current plotline has deviated slightly, and if left unattended, your destiny as the female lead will be taken away!”

Ning Chuchu’s gaze froze upon hearing this, but she remained calm and asked in a plain tone, “What do you mean?”

“I, as the system, have always maintained the operation of this world behind the scenes and never revealed myself. But now, certain unstable factors have appeared in this world, causing a deviation in the plotline. If I don’t intervene in time, the perfect ending written in the novel will not be achieved, which will ultimately lead to the collapse of this small world!”

“What unstable factors?” Ning Chuchu had always been skeptical of supernatural things, but the existence of the system had shattered her understanding, and she had to seriously consider the system’s words.

“At present, I haven’t been able to identify the factors disrupting the plotline. As the highest-level artificial intelligence, my computing power is extremely strong, and my predictions have never missed.”

“Based on the current analysis, if I don’t intervene, there is a 99.99% chance that you will lose your position as the female lead and suffer a miserable end!”

Ning Chuchu raised an eyebrow and questioned, “So, your method of helping me is to force me to tell the truth and then… leave me with such a big mess?”

“Host, you don’t understand,” the system proudly said. “I have performed multiple calculations using my supercomputing abilities, and the final results have all shown that as long as you keep telling the truth and become an absolutely honest person, you will be able to reach the pinnacle of life, just like in the original novel!”

Ning Chuchu fell silent for a moment and suddenly spoke, “System, are you really here to help me?”

“Yes!”

“Okay then,” Ning Chuchu smiled wryly. “Help me in a different way. Bind yourself to someone else as I tell you, and you can force them to tell the truth.”

“You will be responsible for dragging them down, and I guarantee that I can reach the pinnacle of life on my own.”

System: “…”

“Host, do you still not trust me? Let me show you my abilities!” The system became infuriated, clamoring to show Ning Chuchu its power.

Ning Chuchu was actually a little curious about testing this strange system, but unfortunately, before she had the chance to verify if the system’s words were true, her phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the caller ID on the screen, Ning Chuchu furrowed her brows in annoyance.
