Entertainment: I really don’t want to be a thief!

Chapter 467 Little Meimei who sells flowers
On the screen, the little girl was sitting in a dark room, with a few bouquets of flowers in front of her. She said to the camera in a childish voice: "Hello everyone, I am Xiao Meimei, the flower seller. Today I am selling flowers live again! I hope everyone will support me."

Lin Ke frowned slightly, "What...what's going on?" An inexplicable emotion emerged in his heart.

"Dad is sick and needs money for treatment." Xiao Meimei's eyes suddenly turned red, "We are in a difficult situation."

Lin Ke immediately logged into his trumpet account that he rarely used and entered the live broadcast room. "How could this child have suffered like this?"

There were not many viewers in the live broadcast room, but the barrage of "Come on, little Meimei!" and "We support you!" gradually increased.

Lin Ke couldn't help but tip a few hundred yuan and left a message: "Come on! I believe the future will be better!"

"Thank you for the good Samaritan!" Xiao Meimei wiped her tears and said with a smile.

But at this moment, there was a huge wave in Lin Ke's heart. "Why? Why have I, who is talented and capable of helping others, never noticed them before?" Lin Ke began to reflect deeply.

Lin Ke stared at the screen, intently. As the number of people in Xiao Meimei's live broadcast room increased, his heart became tense.

"Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Meimei. Thank you for your support." The little girl's voice was weak but full of hope.

Suddenly, a familiar ID flashed across the screen: "Come on, little Meimei! We are all here to support you!" Lin Ke recognized that it was the account of a well-known artist in the entertainment industry.

Then, more celebrities entered the live broadcast room one after another to give rewards and leave messages, "Power generation for love!" and "Let's help Little Meimei tide over the difficulties together!" The barrage bloomed like fireworks.

Lin Ke felt unprecedented power. "Look at these, little Meimei! You are not fighting alone." He couldn't help but said to the phone screen.

"Really...really? So many people support me?" The little girl's eyes were filled with tears and surprise.

At this moment, doubts suddenly appeared in the live broadcast room: "Is this a show? There are all kinds of tricks now."

Lin Ke's face darkened, "How could someone say that?" He quickly entered a reply: "Everyone has difficult moments. Today we can help others, but tomorrow we may need others to help us. Please remain kind."

Immediately afterwards, more netizens began to fight back against the doubters, "If you have no love, please leave quietly. Only friends who are willing to lend a helping hand are welcome here."

With emotions running high, the live broadcast room became a gathering place of positive energy. The amount of rewards increased rapidly, and love and encouragement formed an ocean, pouring into that strong and pure soul—Xiao Meimei.

"Thank you everyone." the little girl choked, "I believe the future will be better!"

Lin Ke felt sad as he looked at Xiao Meimei's grateful eyes on the screen. He took a deep breath, randomly brushed out a few carnival gifts, and then slowly exited the live broadcast room.

The moment he put down the phone, Lin Ke suddenly felt that just doing this was not enough. He called his manager Li Ze and said, "Li Ze, I need your help with something."

"Oh? What's going on?" Li Ze's voice sounded a little surprised.

"It's about a girl named Xiao Meimei." Lin Ke briefly explained the situation. "I want to know what happened in her family."

"Okay, I understand." Li Ze agreed readily, "Give me some time and I'll check it right away."

Lin Ke waited anxiously for Li Ze's call, praying in his heart that Xiao Meimei and her family would be safe. Finally, after a long wait, his phone vibrated.

"Hey, Li Ze, have you found anything?" Lin Ke quickly answered the phone, with a hint of nervousness and expectation in his voice. "Lin Ke..." Li Ze was silent for a while on the other end of the phone, "I checked it out. But..."

"But what? Say it quickly!" Lin Ke's heart tightened, anticipating bad news.

"This little Meimei...she is a liar! We were deceived!" Li Ze said angrily.

"What?! Are you sure?" Lin Ke couldn't believe his ears. "We saw with our own eyes that she is so pitiful and in need of help!"

"I'm 100% sure." Li Ze said firmly, "I sent people to investigate. She is actually a member of a gang that specializes in creating false impressions online to defraud sympathy."

Lin Ke instantly felt like he had been hit by a heavy hammer, "This...how is this possible..."

He suddenly stood up and paced the room. "Everyone thought we were doing good things. Now? Aren't we a joke?"

Li Ze sighed: "It's really embarrassing. But the most important thing is to find a way to recover the loss now."

Lin Ke sat in front of the computer, feeling extremely complicated. He opened the live broadcast platform and decided to enter Xiao Meimei's live broadcast room again to see what was going on.

"Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Meimei..." On the screen, the familiar voice sounded again, but this time, Lin Ke's ears were full of sarcasm and anger.

He typed quickly in the chat area: "Xiao Meimei, do you really need help? Or have we all been deceived?"

There was silence on the other side of the screen for a few seconds. Then, "Xiao Meimei" smiled and replied: "Dear friends, don't listen to the messy news outside. I really need your help."

Lin Ke frowned and stared at the screen intently. In the live broadcast room, the picture of "Xiao Meimei" was covered with reward messages one after another, and golden virtual gifts poured down like a waterfall.

"Look how sensible this kid is, he's live broadcasting for 12 hours without a break!"

"What a strong little girl, I want to give you the greatest encouragement!"

The comment area was very lively, and netizens offered rewards and support, but Lin Ke felt chilled.

He couldn't help but speak in the chat area: "Calm down, everyone! Do we really understand her? Don't be blinded by appearances."

However, his words were like pebbles thrown into the sea, causing a ripple before disappearing silently.

At this time, "Little Meimei" raised her head, her eyes seemed to be looking directly at Lin Ke through the camera: "Thank you everyone for your love and support for me. I just want to make my life better through my own efforts."

Lin Ke was extremely angry: "You still have the nerve to talk about working hard? How can you use everyone's sympathy to defraud money?"

The live broadcast room suddenly became quiet. A few seconds later, "Xiao Meimei"'s smile did not change: "Dear audience friends, do you believe me or a stranger?"

Then the comment area started to boil again:
"Of course I believe in our cute little Meimei!"

"Those people outside know how to slander good people!"
