"Oh, then it's fine."
The Supervisor returned his gaze to the computer screen and continued playing his game.
He had finally figured out the pattern of events over the past two years.
Any banquet attended by Lin Xuan would be absolutely explosive.
For any other events, a casual report would suffice.
"Supervisor," the reporter said anxiously, "even though Lin Xuan wasn't there, this news is still incredibly explosive. At this banquet, Mrs. Chen, the one who made a huge scene at Lin Qingwan's celebration party, showed up."
"Oh."
The Supervisor nodded absentmindedly.
So what if she showed up?
"Supervisor, this Mrs. Chen was originally wearing a veil, but halfway through, she took it off," the reporter continued.
The Supervisor stopped playing his game.
His brows furrowed tightly.
Wearing a veil... Now that she mentioned it, he remembered.
At the celebration party for Lin Qingwan's company, it was this very Mrs. Chen who had clamored about how their Supreme series skincare products had ruined her face.
The main point was that Jiang Yutong had announced in front of numerous reporters and media outlets that her company would provide an ointment for Mrs. Chen to use. She had also claimed that the ointment could completely restore Mrs. Chen's face within a few weeks.
Everyone had been keeping a close eye on the recovery progress of Mrs. Chen's face.
By now, it had been about a week since Mrs. Chen started using the ointment.
At this, the Supervisor lost all interest in his game. With a smack, he shut off the monitor and asked nervously, "How is Mrs. Chen's face recovering now?"
No matter what it looked like, it would generate a massive amount of traffic.
Of course.
If it had recovered well, the traffic would be even greater.
The reporter smiled and replied, "Mrs. Chen is pretty much fully recovered now. From a distance, even without makeup, you can't see a single trace of disfigurement."
"Only when you get up close can you see some faint scars. But Mrs. Chen said that in just another week or two, the scars on her face should be completely healed, returning her skin to its original state."
Although scars were notoriously difficult to remove.
She believed that the ointment from Lin Xuan's company had that kind of miraculous effect.
In her eyes, Lin Xuan was now like a god, capable of absolutely anything.
"Good, good, good, excellent."
The Supervisor grinned from ear to ear.
"I'll have someone prepare the materials right away to report on this."
Once this news was released, it was guaranteed to blow up!
"Supervisor, if there's nothing else for me, I'll get back to work," the reporter said, looking in a hurry.
"Chen, where are you rushing off to?" the Supervisor asked curiously.
The reporter replied, "I need to go buy a set of their skincare products. I'm afraid if I go too late, they'll be sold out."
Previously, she had been worried that there might be issues with the Supreme series, so she hadn't dared to buy it.
Now, she didn't have to worry at all.
She had to get herself a set.
"Chen, tell me, do those skincare products really have that kind of effect?" the Supervisor asked with curiosity.
"Definitely. At the banquet, I heard those wealthy ladies saying that they had invited all the famous doctors in Yundu, but none of them could do anything about their faces. Yet, Jiang Yutong's company managed to heal more than half of Mrs. Chen's face in just one week."
"Could a company that developed such a miracle drug possibly make bad skincare products?"
"I won't say more, Supervisor. I'm off to buy them." The reporter made to leave again.
"Wait."
The Supervisor called her back once more.
"Supervisor, is there something else?" the reporter asked, frowning.
If she delayed any longer, she was worried she wouldn't be able to snag any of the products.
The Supervisor smiled brightly and said, "Chen, could you help me buy a set too?"
He had recently been pursuing a divorced woman.
But she thought he was too ugly.
His face was indeed covered in acne.
He had heard that the skincare products from Jiang Yutong's company had acne-clearing properties.
He needed to try them out!
"As for the money, I'll transfer it to you as soon as I'm done with work," the Supervisor said with a grin.
If it weren't for the fact that he needed to stay behind to process the banquet footage and publish the posts, he probably would have gone with Chen to buy the products himself.
"Alright," the reporter nodded.
Soon, the videographer finished editing the video and getting the photos ready.
"Go, publish these immediately," the Supervisor ordered. "The main takeaway should be that Jiangtong's skincare products have miraculous effects and can restore a person's face."
The masked employee he was speaking to had also had her face ruined by Lin Qingwan's skincare products.
Hearing this, her face filled with shock.
"Supervisor, is this true?"
"It is," the Supervisor nodded. "Go get it done first, so we don't get scooped by another company."
"Yes, Supervisor, I'll do it right away." The employee's eyes lit up.
If that ointment worked, it was wonderful news, her face could be saved.
After the employee left, the Supervisor leaned back comfortably in his office chair.
"This time, I've finally seized the golden opportunity for traffic," the Supervisor said excitedly.
Almost all the explosive news over the past two years had involved Lin Xuan.
For once, he wasn't involved.
However...
The Supervisor suddenly recalled the scene at Lin Qingwan's celebration party, Lin Xuan had been sitting right next to Jiang Yutong.
And the target this time was the Lin family's company.
Could it be that Lin Xuan was actually involved in this too...
If he was involved, and if they had gotten their hands on some solid evidence, this news would be absolutely, overwhelmingly explosive!
Under Lei Hui's prior arrangements, the news that Jiangtong Beauty's restorative ointment was effective instantly shot to the top of the trending searches.
When netizens saw the news, they were filled with excitement.
"It actually works! And the results are amazing! This is fantastic! I'm going to buy the ointment right now."
"I'm going to buy it too! Me too!"
"If the ointment is this effective, then their company's skincare products must be perfectly fine. I didn't use the products from Lin Qingwan's company, so I don't need the ointment, but I can definitely use their skincare products. I'm going to buy some too before you guys clear out the stock."
"Damn! This is insane! Absolutely insane! Her face was completely ruined, and in just one short week, it recovered to this extent. If it weren't for the video, I wouldn't have believed it."
"Jiangtong Beauty is awesome!"
"Are you guys really still leaving comments here? Why aren't you hurrying to buy the restorative ointment? Aren't you afraid it'll sell out?"
"Oh right, I'm out of here. I'm going to buy the ointment. If it gets snatched up and I miss out, who knows when it'll be back in stock."
Those who had been disfigured by the Supreme series skincare products flocked to shopping platforms to buy the restorative ointment.
Some people, unwilling to wait for shipping, even rushed to physical stores to buy it directly.

to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
