Chapter 93: Chapter 93, Shooting Oneself in the Foot The moment those words were uttered, the scene instantly erupted into chaos. You must know that there were about twenty to thirty Ruyuan members present, who had previously purchased the luxury cream and had a good relationship with Zhang Lanxi. After learning about Zhang Lanxi’s allergy, they were all very concerned, which is why they came along with her to defend their rights, never imagining they would be used as pawns. This made them very angry; after all, they were currently live streaming on a short video platform. Although their number of viewers wasn’t large, combined they had considerable influence. Moreover, many people were flooding into their live-streaming rooms at that moment, and the heat continued to rise, leaving them all a bit bewildered. Because they had no idea why thousands of people were suddenly appearing in the live room. Did someone buy them heat? Excluding this possibility, it was really impossible to explain why there were so many people in the live room. Zhang Lanxi continued, "President Hu of Oulan Company was worried that the luxury cream would affect Oulan’s status in Qingyuan, so he gave me fifty thousand yuan to frame you. President Huang, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please be merciful and give me a way out. I really don’t want to end up in jail!" With that, she broke down in tears. Seeing this scene, Huang Ruirui was almost unable to suppress her laughter. Oulan had tried to use such a despicable means to suppress them, little knowing that they would shoot themselves in the foot. It was truly satisfying! She held back her inner excitement, kept a stern face, and righteously addressed the phones streaming live, "President Hu, I am aware that you should be watching this live stream, so I will take this opportunity to have a few words with you!" "Though we are rivals, I have always respected you and looked up to you as a role model. But I didn’t expect you would use such underhanded tactics to suppress us." "To this, I just want to say, your methods are truly low-grade." "Our company stands upright and righteous, and we won’t be defeated by such despicable tactics." Bang! In another company far away, Hu Ji pounded the table with a fist. Her face was dark, and her eyes flared with intense anger. She was the founder of Oulan Company, known for its many popular products, firmly holding the top spot in Qingyuan’s skincare market. But the new luxury cream launched by Ruyuan Company made her feel immense pressure. That was why she had spent a hefty sum to have Zhang Lanxi create trouble for Huang Ruirui, with the aim of ruining the reputation of the luxury cream. For this, she also invested an additional fifty thousand yuan to buy heat for those women live streaming. Otherwise, with their paltry followers, they wouldn’t have stirred up such significant public opinion. Everything was under her control, but she never expected Zhang Lanxi to completely divulge the truth. This really was shooting herself in the foot. At this moment. Huang Ruirui’s voice came from the phone in front of her, "It’s rare for so many people to pay attention to our newly launched luxury cream, so I’ll take this opportunity to recommend it to everyone!" "Our company’s luxury cream is crafted from over ten kinds of precious Chinese herbal medicines, with no preservatives or chemical ingredients added. It can be consumed orally and used externally. Although it has side effects... the ability to slim down as a side effect should be a dream come true for many beauty lovers, right?" "The biggest effect of the luxury cream is that it can heal acne scars and blemishes in a short period and promises a refund if ineffective!" "Bring me a set of the luxury cream, so everyone can witness its effects." Immediately, a staff member brought a set of the luxury cream. Then Huang Ruirui applied it to the red spots on Zhang Lanxi’s face in front of everyone. Shortly after applying, the red spots vanished at a visible speed. Seeing this scene, many people could no longer stay calm. Wasn’t this too magical? Coupled with the slimming side effect, wasn’t this the most flawless skincare and slimming product in the eyes of countless beauty enthusiasts? Wouldn’t this product sell out instantly??? Ruyuan’s social media platform went viral, and in an instant, it gained thousands of followers. But. Oulan’s social media platform was filled with curses because many people learned of the incident and were thoroughly disgusted by Oulan Company’s tactics. "Huang Ruirui, we are not done until you lose everything. If I, Hu Ji, don’t see you ruined, I’ll take your surname!" Hu Ji furiously smashed her phone. ------ On the other side, Zhang Lanxi left Huang Ruirui’s company feeling disgraced. Though the red spots on her body had been cured, her mood was poor. After all, today, she became a villain, and who knows if she would be cyberbullied. "Sis, you should quickly fetch a set of the luxury cream." Seeing the TV station reporters leaving the company, Xu Wendong said to Huang Ruirui. Although Huang Ruirui didn’t understand Xu Wendong’s intentions, she quickly fetched a set of the luxury cream. Xu Wendong took it and hurried out, blocking reporter Xu Fan in the parking lot. At this moment, Xu Fan was driving his private car, preparing to leave. Seeing Xu Wendong blocking the road, he rolled down the window and asked with a smile, "Is there anything else?" Xu Wendong smiled, "Well, our company still has ten openings for experience officers. I thought maybe the beautiful sister would like to try our company’s product. Although you’re very beautiful, who doesn’t have acne scars left over from their teenage years? Who wouldn’t want to be more perfect? Of course, if you could help us promote it in your circle, that would be even better." Saying this, he placed the set of luxury cream into the car. Xu Fan showed a look of surprise. She knew that Xu Wendong wanted to bribe her, but she didn’t expect his words to be so watertight, especially with the experience officer positions, which was irresistible! To be honest, if Xu Wendong were someone who had been out in society for many years, she wouldn’t be surprised by such words. But he was so young and fresh. Being so young and already having such high emotional intelligence, this guy certainly had some prowess. She displayed a slight smile, "What’s your name?" "My name is Xu Wendong." Xu Fan nodded slightly, "Alright, in that case, I will try your company’s products!" "Great, take care!" Xu Wendong flashed a bright smile and directed her car out of the parking lot. At this moment, Huang Ruirui walked over from a distance, watching the car drive away, and said sourly, "What, do you fancy that lady reporter? People say men are fickle, but your speed is too fast!" Xu Wendong looked innocent, "Sis, you misunderstood. I don’t like her. I’m just thinking of having her say more good things about us. Although the Qingyuan Television Station’s ratings aren’t very high, its influence isn’t low either." "If she writes a news article in our favor, wouldn’t that benefit us?" A gleam of excitement flashed in Huang Ruirui’s eyes, and then she wrapped her arm around Xu Wendong’s neck, her eyes seductive, "You have helped me a lot this time, I must thank you properly." Xu Wendong’s heart delighted, "How will you thank me?"
