Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Li was shocked when he saw Ling Xue’s trembling body and the determination in her eyes.
He had always thought that Ling Xue was a soft and pitiful girl. Now, she was willing to make such a decision for him.
However, before he could continue, Ling Xue spoke up again, “But Lu Li, you started a company with my brother. Our family doesn’t have much money left. If I sell the jewelry that my parents gave me, it might take a long time before we can bail you out. If I turn myself in, I don’t know who else can raise money for you. I don’t know what to do.”
She lowered her head and her tears fell onto the table, but her eyes had no remorse.
She heard from Pei Yu that Lu Li had a trick up his sleeve. He didn’t invest all the money that the Lu family gave him into the company.
Sure enough, Lu Li seemed to have made up his mind. He held Ling Xue’s hand tightly and said, “Ling Xue, 1 have honey. 1’11 tell you how to get it.”
When she left the police station, Ling Xue’s face was flushed red.
Pei Yu thought that she was angry and carefully brought her back to the hospital.
However, only Ling Xue knew that she had struck gold. Wang Chao’s father was about to confess, so she and Lu Li would be fine. Once everything passes, the money would be hers.
However, she didn’t just want to get the money. Now that she had detached herself from the blame, she had to make sure that Pei Xin was dragged into this muddy mess as well.
In just one night, thousands of people accused Pei Xin of selling fake goods in her live room.
The few people who had previously identified Ling Xue had also been bribed to stay silent. Since they had received the compensation and signed a confidentiality agreement, they would not come out and say anything.
This time, not only did those accounts have proof of orders and logistics information, but someone also gave the hospital’s test certificate, proving that the products sold by Pei Xin had serious problems.
“What should we do? We are being targeted!” Tian Yuan looked at Pei Xin anxiously.
The impact of this incident was huge. It was as if thousands of accounts had agreed to fight. In four hours, news of Pei Xin selling fake goods spread all over the Internet.
Initially, the company was still choosing products to broadcast live for the next few days, but everything had to be halted.
Pei Xin looked at the comments and laughed. “Tian Yuan, let’s carry on with tonight’s live. Tell the purchasing department to prepare the products for sale today. Make sure there are no mistakes.”
Tian Yuan felt that this was not a good time to start a live, she was worried that Pei Xin would be heavily slandered.
However, Pei Xin did not seem to care, and even had a somewhat eager look to go live.
Pei Xin looked chipper. She was many steps ahead of her opponent. She knew she was being targeted, so of course she would think of every countermeasure!
Ever since the netizens found out that Pei Xin was still going to go live, many buyers eagerly waited to join.
There were even more netizens who were watching the live than before. In addition, Pei Xin’s profile changed every moment, and her popularity increased a lot.
As expected, the moment the live started, more than 300,000 people flooded in.
“Hello, everyone. Today’s early broadcast is mainly to clarify the false rumors circling online.”
As soon as Pei Xin said that, everyone exploded. Many trolls began to criticize her.
[How can you call it a false rumor? One or two complaints are fine, but more than a thousand people have spoken up!! Explain yourself!]
[That’s right, that’s right. I bought it from your live. I have a purchase record. You sold me fake goods.]
[I saw the pictures. All of them had rotten faces. How can you sleep at night knowing you ruined their lives?]
Waves of curses came one after another. Zhou Yu stood anxiously at the side, but when she thought of the plan Pei Xin had told her today, she became calm again.
Someone called again, causing Zhou Yu to raise her eyebrows slightly. It seemed like Pei Xin had thought of everything.
Zhou Yu smiled at the camera. “I see, a victim wants to connect with us. Today, we will confront her. There must be justice. I hope that the vast number of netizens can be a witness for us.”
The moment the connection started, the number of people in the live room reached a million.
Pei Xin’s lips curled up. It seemed like she was about to get the result she wanted.
This time, the victim was not wearing a mask, but one of her eyes was wrapped in gauze.
She pointed at her eyes and glared at the camera. “Pei Xin, you heartless b*tch. You sold me fake goods.. Now, my eyes can’t open!”
