Quick Transmigration: Sorry, I Never Loved You - Chapter 219
The viewers’ emotions constantly changed as they listened to Xu Jiaqi’s heartfelt speech, feeling anguished for her situation.
After she concluded every single bit of the details she had planned before starting up the stream, she once again took a deep breath and looked straight into the camera with unwavering eyes, showing her resolute will in executing her plans.
“As such, I will be taking a short break from streaming, since I want to pay all those who have wronged me in the past.. some sweet revenge. After struggling, and crawling up the ways of life until my preparations get done..”
“I have finally acquired the means to exact my payback, and I will be doing so from now on. No one who has wronged me and my parents in the past shall escape from my grasp. I will make sure that justice will be served.” Xu Jiaqi smiled.
However, unlike her past smiles, which has always been one brimming with arrogance stemming from her confidence, it was a bit dispirited today. It further elevated the faithful viewers’ perception.
This time, the Queen seemed awfully sad. They didn’t know how they came to this conclusion since the Queen did nothing but tell her story in a straightforward manner, and even smiled as she did so. As if the things did not affect her in the slightest.
However, to them, it sounded like the Queen was having difficulty speaking smoothly. Trying to stay strong even though she was breaking in the inside.
Was it their imagination, or was there truly something deeper lying within the Queen’s story? What was it that their streamer had to bear behind her facade- the one that they watched for all this time without realizing that there was a looming tragedy behind her?
Of course, it was safe to assume that a lot of things were still hidden. Smarter viewers had already understood by the gist of her words that Xu Jiaqi was probably going to fully take the legal path of dealing with these wrongdoers. By doing so, if she dared to expose the intricate details of her situation, it might fire back on her case later on.
It was understandable that she kept a vague notion throughout her speech. Even so, it caused distressed for the viewers, who desperately wanted to know her condition and how she was faring. Because from the showcase she displayed, she didn’t look that great.
Speculations would naturally start to occur right after Xu Jiaqi ended her stream. This was her very intention, creating a spark that would leave a huge impression on people.
Not only her own viewers, but a lot of people had it within themselves to seek drama and heated events. A story like Xu Jiaqi’s would surely tug on their heartstrings and curiosity, bringing their attention over to the matter as well.
She was, again, someone who was adept in controlling people’s emotions and leading them as she liked. Moving the people’s perceptions might not be the easiest thing ever for others, but for Xu Jiaqi, it was very easy as long as she had the right tools to do it.
And the tools were indeed in her hands. The fire of chaos shall begin.

As she had predicted, her storytelling session made the headlines right away after the fateful day.
“Breaking news! [Heaven’s Chaos]’ popular streamer, [Her Majesty’s Abode], is actually the former shining child star who reigned over her entertainment field back in the day- Xu Jiaqi!”
“The streamer has publicly declared that there were inexcusable foul play with the intent to harm done towards her life.”
“Dedicated fans have gone out of their way and investigated the matters surrounding her, only to find cryptic clues, and unsolvable incidents regarding the streamer and everything that she was involved in back in the day. Many people have begun to dig deep into the possible theories, and whatever foul play was done.”
“The streamer has….”
News channels started to report on her case.
Online channels on video platforms, other streamers, stars, everyone began to hear about her case and looked into it.
They got hooked, for a couple of reasons.
First, the tragic life that the star Xu Jiaqi has led all this time. She was stripped off her reign forcefully by a traumatic event, had her loved ones be erased from the world due to an accident, and disappeared into nothingness just like that, with no news on her aftermath being shared to the world.
She was forgotten by everyone in a split second. It was also rather suspicious that for a figure like Xu Jiaqi, who was supposed to carry a heavy weight of fame back then, suddenly did not have any media attention on her and was just buried off like that.
There were some heat about the tragedies back then, but that was it. The rest vanished, as if there was someone behind the scenes purposely silencing the case.
Secondly, there were too many suspicious things about what Xu Jiaqi had said about her case openly. She spoke out that there were indeed foul play in her suffering. That she suffered injustices. Then, who were the culprits?
Curiosity.
It spiked from within their minds, triggering their imaginations to come up with suspects that dared to harm a little child that lost her parents and suffered from harsh trauma back when she was a child.
How inhumane!
Xu Jiaqi held a glass of red wine in her hands as she watched countless sites and programs broadcast her case. Her name was finally out there for millions of people to look at. The news was still generally contained in China right now, but soon..
It would surely spread even further. Not to mention after her case finally gets processed.
“Are you enjoying this, dear?” Tang Yizhou, who was sitting by her side and looking at her fervently to draw her attention to him questioned.
“Of course. Why would I not? I have been waiting for this day to come for so long. As I expected, it tastes way different if I do it myself. Your offer to do everything in my stead was tempting, but it wouldn’t be the same. The flavor of revenge.. It is something that brings thrill to me.”
Ever since their first affair, they both officially got together and became a couple. Those who knew amounted to no more than five people, with four of them being from Tang Yizhou’s side, and Feng Qin being Xu Jiaqi’s only acquaintance who could be called ‘close’.
“..It can also be dangerous. I don’t want you to get hurt. There’s a lot of people who view you negatively because of this case. Qiqi, if you’re sick of this, or is bothered by anything, tell me right away. I will dispose of all those who hinder you in a flash.”
“Should I say that.. you’re very sweet?” Xu Jiaqi chuckled. “How strange.. I thought that President Tang would be more refined.. like a block of stone. It’s good that this is not the case. Or else, how could I bear missing such a perfect partner?”
“I’ve already said it so many times, and I will say it once again. Qiqi, you are my savior, and the one I hold dear. You pulled me out of my suffering and knocked my senses back into me. If it wasn’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have lasted until this long. Before you came.. I was on the brink of giving up, the only thing holding me up being my little brother.”
“..Cheesy.” Xu Jiaqi turned her head away, pouting. “Come to think of it, Tang Yixiu is born in the same year as me. Do you know which university he plans to apply to?”
“…Hmm, knowing that boy, he’s probably going to go abroad. He hasn’t told me his final decision yet, but he has an interest in my field.. He had expressed interest towards working with me, even though I would love it even more if he tried to branch out his paths and go on a separate venture. Although, the worries I’d have to cultivate if that happened is also concerning.. I assume he would take Computer Science as his major.”
“Probably? How can you not be sure? It’s a very important choice for his life. Yixiu is a meticulous person, he should have everything set up inside his mind. You should worry about him more rather than spending all your time on me!” Xu Jiaqi raised a brow, not believing the situation.
It was a crucial point in life for Tang Yixiu, how can he be so nonchalant?
“Ever since.. you know, my mental state pummeled to the ground, I did a lot of bad things to him.. He probably doesn’t look at me fondly anymore, I’m the source of many of his sufferings.” Tang Yizhou sighed deeply.
Xu Jiaqi bit her lips and faced the man up close, the distance separating their two faces being less than a hand’s width.
