Inside the Jiang Yutong Beauty flagship store within the mall.
After the wealthy socialites left, and while the netizens who had just seen the news were still on their way, the staff members wiped the sweat from their foreheads one by one and slumped paralyzed into their chairs.
"Having so many people come to buy products all at once... it really wore me out."
"Yeah, but I'm curious. Why were they suddenly scrambling to buy skincare products and medicinal ointments?"
One employee opened Weibo and spoke with a face full of surprise. "It turns out Mrs. Chen's face has mostly recovered. She went to a high-society banquet and promoted us, which is why those wealthy ladies came over one by one to snatch up our skincare products."
"Quick, let me see."
The employees crowded around to look at that staff member's phone.
The other employees who couldn't squeeze in took out their own phones and opened Weibo.
"Oh my god, so the repair effect of this ointment is actually this good!"
They had expected the rich ladies to come buying, knowing the ointment could restore their faces, but they hadn't expected the results to be this spectacular!
"This is great! Our company's skincare products and ointments are definitely going to be bestsellers from now on!"
"Speaking of which, our company used to be suppressed and beaten down by Lin Qingwan's DR Beauty Company. Now, not only has Lin Qingwan's company been bankrupted by our President Jiang, but our company has also taken off. I always feel like President Jiang couldn't have done this alone; there must be an expert guiding her from behind the scenes."
"Right, I think so too. I just wonder who the expert behind President Jiang is..."
"Hey, do you guys think it could be Lin Xuan? Last time at Lin Qingwan's celebration banquet, Lin Xuan and President Jiang seemed to have a pretty good relationship. Also, Lin Qingwan is a member of the Lin family. Lin Xuan dealt with Lin Li and the Star Gaze Group, and now he's developed skincare products and joined forces with our President Jiang to deal with Lin Qingwan's company. It's not impossible."
"What you're saying makes sense, but the guess has to be realistic, right? Lin Xuan is mainly in the internet industry. That's a hundred thousand miles away from skincare. How could he possibly research such an awesome skincare product?"
Just as they finished discussing this, another hot topic climbed up the Weibo search rankings.
[Big News! The biggest contributor behind Jiang Yutong Beauty Company's newly developed skincare products and repair ointment is actually Lin Xuan!]
Inside this Weibo hot search, there was a video of the conversation between Jiang Yutong and Mrs. Chen, with the audio clearly audible.
The employee frowned in curiosity.
The biggest contributor is Lin Xuan?
What does this have to do with Lin Xuan?
Curious, he clicked on the video.
Seeing the content inside...
"Pfft—"
He sprayed a mouthful of water out.
"Cough, cough, cough—" He choked and coughed several times in a row.
His girlfriend was also an employee at the flagship store, working alongside him.
She frowned in disgust. "You can even choke on water? You really are something."
The employee defended himself, "It wasn't that I was careless; I saw a piece of news and was shocked."
"What kind of bizarre news could there be? Let me see." The girlfriend took his phone.
"This, this, this..." When the girlfriend saw the content on the phone, her eyes went wide.
Isn't this too outrageous?
The girlfriend was so shocked she was completely speechless.
The other employees walked over out of curiosity.
"Holy sh*t!"
They were also full of shock.
"These skincare products and the ointment were actually developed by Lin Xuan!"
This was truly, truly, truly ridiculous!
"This... this has to be fake, right? Lin Xuan actually has this kind of skill too?!"
"Right, right, right, I also find it incredible. I don't think Lin Xuan could possibly have this skill. But this was said personally by our President Jiang. Curing the faces of these wealthy ladies allows one to build good connections with them. If these skincare products weren't really researched by Lin Xuan, why would President Jiang hand over the credit to someone else?"
"That makes sense. Then it looks like the skincare products really were researched by Lin Xuan and his team. Games, computer genius, novels, Huyin... I seriously suspect Lin Xuan is a freak of nature."
In just two short years, he had produced so many top-tier projects. He was simply a monster.
"No, ordinary people simply don't have the time to create so many projects in such a short period. Lin Xuan isn't just a freak; I suspect he has a spatial dimension."
If he had a portable space, then everything would make sense.
"Oh, come on, a spatial dimension?" Another employee rolled their eyes. "Do you think this is a novel world? We believe in science! Science! Do you understand?"
The employee muttered under his breath, "Don't be so quick to disbelieve. It's actually possible."
Maybe Lin Xuan really was the male lead in a novel.
Generally speaking, the person most suited for the novel's male lead must be the strongest and most beautiful woman.
Boss Su... he had seen her. She was exceptionally, exceptionally beautiful.
Lin Xuan and Boss Su could possibly be a couple.
The supervisor of a media company also received the news immediately.
"The person behind Jiang Yutong is Lin Xuan?" He stared wide-eyed in shock.
Soon, he nodded in realization.
If it was Lin Xuan, it wasn't strange. Lin Xuan loved stirring up trouble at banquets the most.
The events behind this banquet must have been single-handedly orchestrated by Lin Xuan.
"Awesome. Too awesome," the supervisor couldn't help but exclaim.
With Lin Xuan's methods, anyone who opposed him was simply looking for a death wish.
Thinking of this, the supervisor quickly made a call to give instructions. "In the future, if there is any negative news to be reported about Lin Xuan, you must contact me immediately. You must absolutely not take matters into your own hands and report it privately."
If Lin Xuan got unhappy and destroyed their company, they wouldn't even have a place to cry.
He had to warn his subordinates in advance.
The netizens also saw this Weibo hot search.
Every single one of them had a look of disbelief on their faces.
—Lin Xuan is... a freak.
—Ahhh, my Male God Oppa is truly too handsome! He can even research such awesome skincare products!
—I'm increasingly feeling that it's possible he really has researched chips and photolithography machines.
—If the skincare products were researched by Lin Xuan, does that mean Lin Xuan knew Lin Qingwan frequently copied Jiang Yutong's company's products? So he deliberately dug a pit for Lin Qingwan to jump into, causing her company's products to have issues and making her go bankrupt, and then he stepped over Lin Qingwan's company to sell the repair ointment? Isn't this method similar to how he dealt with the Star Gaze Group?
—Hiss, if that's the case, isn't Lin Xuan treating us like fools? He watched helplessly as we used Lin Qingwan's company's products and got disfigured, and then he used this opportunity to sell the repair ointment so he could rake in another huge sum of money?
Lin Xuan looked at these comments and curled his lips.
This repair ointment was indeed prepared for them.
Money delivered to the door—only a fool wouldn't take it.
Lin Xuan put away his phone with a clear conscience.
Just as he turned off the screen, Wang Dahe's call came in.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
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. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
