The host was stunned. He had not expected Luna to question him so directly. 

When faced with such questions, most guests would usually appear calm in an interview, in fear or tarnishing their own reputation. As long as the answer was dismissive in the slightest, the host could choose to twist it into whatever he wanted. He could even label the guest as arrogant or call them out for despising everyone after gaining a few achievements. Even if there was no evidence, sometimes an article was all it took to destroy one's effort. 

Luna's company was yet to gain a foothold in the industry, so a slight mistake could doom its growth. This was why the host had been confident that she would not retaliate no matter what.

However, he was wrong. Luna questioned him calmly, "What was the point of asking us about our opinions regarding the topics prepared if you were not planning to use any of them?" 

To this, the host gave a fake smile. "Miss Xia, you have misunderstood. Although we did prepare a series of questions beforehand, we also allow the live audience to send some of the questions they are curious about." inwardly, he laughed. Hehe… Did she think it was hard to deal with a little girl? 

"This matter has long been clarified. You can look it up, I'm sure the news is still online. If you still have doubts, you are welcome to go and question the court about it." She answered unhurriedly.

"How would we know? After all, the Jiang family…" He still clung to this point. 

Xingyu suddenly stood up, his face devoid of expression. "I'm sorry. My fiancée is pregnant and needs to rest more. We should get going now." 

If it wasn't because Lanni was an employee of Tian Yu Media, heaven knows he would have flipped up. Giving a reasonable excuse was merely because he didn't want to make things difficult for Lanni, who had invited them. 

The host panicked. Although Xingyu had given such an irrefutable reason, the audience was not blind. He was clearly trying to hold back his displeasure. 

Comments had already started flooding on the bullet screen and TY Media's website. 

[It's already hard enough to watch an interview of my idol but he wants to leave. I'm so sad T_T] 

[Isn't it because of that trash host? I feel like he's holding a grudge against Miss Xia right from the first question!] 

[I paid attention to the so-called murder case. It turned out, Xia Luna had been framed and blackmailed into pleading guilty in court. After such an ordeal, it takes courage to be able to continue living. Yet, not only are you not encouraging her for her bravery, you are using the incident to slander her instead? Are you even human?!] 

[That's it. I'm not going to watch any more interviews and programmes from TY. Trash studio! (emoji:furious)] 

Luna was wondering what to do when they heard the soft clank of high heels as a woman walked in. 

She looked young and had her hair tied into a neat bun. With her white dress and light makeup, one could consider her as cute. But at this moment, she looked serious as she whispered something to the man. The man's expression paled and he walked out of the studio, as the young woman took his seat. 

She glanced at the guests with a gentle smile. "I'm so sorry for what my colleague has done. Miss Xia, Miss Cheng, Mr. Jiang, if it's not troublesome, could we continue the interview? I will replace him." 

It was not uncommon for guests to walk out on interviews, but replacing guests did not happen very often. She was nervous. 

Cheng Yu sighed. "I'll let Luna decide." 

The young lady looked at Xingyu, who said the same thing. "Babe, what do you want to do?" 

Although it was such an awkward moment, the live audience couldn't help shrieking in excitement. Comments filled the bullet screen once more. 

[Aaaaah! My husband is so tyrannical!] 

[The commentator above, keep your drool to yourself. He is someone else's husband.]

The first commentator retorted [Do you dare to claim that you didn't drool?] 

[He dotes on Luna so much! The way he said 'babe, what do you want to do?' made my knees weak.] 

[I'm so done with this live PDA, but my eyes just won't budge!] 

Seeing the comments start to change for the better, and the initially dropping viewer ratings start to rise, the new host, Ava, was nervous. What would Luna say? 

Luna was still displeased. However, seeing Ava's anticipating eyes, her heart softened. The girl was probably an intern. If she successfully averted the crisis, she may have a breakthrough in her career. Since she didn't want to make things difficult for an intern, Luna nodded. "Let's go on." 

Outside the live studio, Lanni heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Luna's compliance. 

She turned and glanced at the former host, who she had summoned out a while ago. "You are fired." 

The man had expected a scolding from his superiors, but he didn't expect that Lanni would directly utter such words. He scoffed amid his surprise. "Why?" 

Lanni did not want to waste time dealing with such a sc.u.mbag. "If you still want to feign ignorance, then you will know the reason once you receive the letter of termination." 

She then sauntered away in her high heels. 

In truth, the host had nothing against Luna. It was only because he had been warned by Lanni earlier that he looked the guests up. When he realized that Cheng Yu was Lanni's friend and that Luna was her sister, he planned out this strike. Since Lanni treasured them so much, he would make them make fools of themselves in front of the watching eyes of the entire nation. 

When he saw that they were about to walk out, he had been unfazed, because he could simply write a few explosive headlines and throw the blame on the three of them. 

Yet, who would have expected that he would be kicked out of the interview instead? This was a huge blow to his career! As if that was not enough, he was fired! 

Although he was afraid, he harrumphed. What authority did a little girl have? Why did she think she had the right to fire him? 

"Let's see who gets fired in the end." He laughed. 

… 

Inside the studio, the interview was lively and humorous. Since it was an open interview, there were many topics regarding Moonlight Studios that could be talked about. And Ava knew just the right questions to ask. Not only did she spike the interest of potential investors for the company, her own intelligence was also displayed.

Once in a while, she would throw in a question or two about their personal lives, and the comments were threatening to blow the screens. 

Ava looked at Cheng Yu who had just finished answering a question. "You are so smart. I'm sure your boyfriend feels like the luckiest man on earth. Wait. Do you have a boyfriend?" She louvered her tone dramatically through the second part, acting like it was supposed to be a secret question. 

Cheng Yu blushed when she thought about Cedric who must be waiting for her. Clearing her throat, she nodded. "Yes." 

"Did you hear that? The hearts of all the single men just broke!" Ava joked, but it was no exaggeration. All of Cheng Yu's fans started crying and expressing their heartbreak on the bullet screens.

Getting back to the main business, Ava asked about Moonlight Studio's latest project. 

"The newest upcoming project is a game called Demons Vs gods. It was based on the comics "The Demigod's Wife" by Cheng Yu and "Demon Under Me" by. Cedric Han." Luna explained. 

Ava was awed when she heard the explanation. "I have read both the comics." She almost lost herself and squealed when she thought about the five devilishly handsome brothers in "Demon Under Me". 

She was not the only one. The comment screen was filled with red hearts as fans of the comics flooded the site with comments. 

"How soon will we get to play it?" Ava asked the question in most of the comments. 

Cheng Yu smiled when she saw how excited the fans of both comics were. "The game is currently undergoing test-runs. If everything goes well, it should be available to play in a few days." 

Since it was yet to be officially released, they didn't give too much details. Even so, the fans were already looking forward to it. It was evident that in the coming days, Luna and Cheng Yu would explode in popularity. Although Xingyu was already a widely known businessman, his popularity would increase as well.

Li Yuming's villa. 

Li Yuming was waiting for the TV drama she liked to watch. There was still about half an hour before it started so she leisurely switched through the channels to find something to watch while waiting. She casually switched to TY and was surprised when she saw the ongoing interview. 

Her surprise morphed into curiosity and she listened. Luna and Cheng Yu took turns explaining the genre and general overview of their new game. 

Li Yuming's lips curled upwards unknowingly. "So smart." [1] 

….. 

[1] ….Make a guess. 

Who is Li Yuming referring to as smart? 

Xingyu? 

Her apprentice, Cheng Yu? 

Her estranged daughter, Luna?
