📖 Chapter 22 – Surrender

✍️ Summary by MSY

Su Nan’s sharp post from a new account explodes across the internet, instantly reshaping the narrative. Influencers amplify her words, and Lu Qi’s secrets spill into the spotlight, dissected by netizens hungry for scandal. His reputation crumbles as followers surge to Su Nan’s side.

At Fu Corporation, Lu Qi storms into Fu Yechuan’s office, panicked and desperate. He blames Su Nan for “cyberbullying” him, claiming paparazzi tricked him and that Fu Yingying pushed him into the scheme. Fu Yechuan’s cold response—“Serves you right”—shows his growing disillusionment with both his sister and his friend. Lu Qi’s pleas fall flat; Fu Yechuan refuses to intervene, telling him to solve his own mess.

Cornered by divorce threats from his wife, fury from his father, and relentless online backlash, Lu Qi finally bows his head. With no allies left, he surrenders, posting a public apology to Su Nan from his account with 800,000 followers. The humiliation is agony, but resistance would mean ruin.

At Su Corporation, Qin Yu gleefully reports the news to Su Nan, mocking Lu Qi’s quick collapse.

💖 Review by MSY (Reaction Voice)

This chapter was deliciously satisfying. Watching Lu Qi unravel was pure karma. He strutted around, smug and manipulative, thinking he could smear Su Nan with a doctored video—and within hours, he was the one being torn apart. The irony was chef’s kiss.

His panic in Fu Yechuan’s office was almost funny. “Brother, your ex-wife is going to ruin me!” The audacity! He thought Fu Yechuan would swoop in and save him, but instead got a cold slap of reality. Fu Yechuan’s line—“So you tried to smear her, and she turned it back on you?”—was brutal. Finally, he’s seeing the truth: Su Nan isn’t weak, and anyone who underestimates her pays the price.

The best part? Lu Qi’s humiliation. His wife threatening divorce, his father ready to disown him, his phone buzzing with rage—it was like watching a house of cards collapse. And that final surrender, the public apology, was the cherry on top. For a man obsessed with face and reputation, bowing to Su Nan online was agony. But she forced his hand, and he had no choice. That’s power.

And Qin Yu’s reaction sealed it. Her grin, her mocking tone—“Turns out he’s useless”—was the perfect best-friend commentary. She’s the hype woman we all need, cheering Su Nan’s victories and laughing at her enemies’ downfall.

This chapter wasn’t just about Lu Qi’s defeat. It was about Su Nan’s dominance. She didn’t even have to lift a finger after her post—the internet did the rest. That’s how you know she’s untouchable now.

Looking ahead, several plot threads seem likely:

• Su Nan: Her reputation will strengthen, proving she can dismantle enemies with precision and composure.
• Lu Qi: His humiliation will drive him into reckless retaliation, but his credibility is already destroyed.
• Fu Yechuan: His regret will intensify as he watches Su Nan rise while his allies crumble.
• Fu Yingying: She will grow desperate, pushing for new schemes that may backfire even harder.
