Jiang Shuqin fumed with anger, "Lin Xuan is actually playing the victim online now? If he's truly starving and broke, why couldn't he just say so himself?"
She couldn’t believe how gullible people on the internet were, falling right into Lin Xuan’s trap.
"No, I have to post about this. I can’t let those people be fooled," Jiang Shuqin declared, pulling out her phone.
Slap!
Lin Chang struck her across the face again.
Jiang Shuqin’s ears rang from the force of the blow. Lin Chang snatched the phone from her hand and hurled it against the wall. The device shattered upon impact, the screen splintering into pieces as it clattered to the floor.
"Jiang Shuqin, are you still causing trouble? Do you think the Lin family hasn’t been humiliated enough?" Lin Chang roared.
Jiang Shuqin’s heart ached with injustice. Who was she doing all this for?
Wasn’t it for the Lin family?
And yet, he dared to hit her!
"Do you even realize what you’ve done? Just as I was about to sign a contract, a foreign partner saw the mess you stirred up. He called us unethical and canceled the deal!" Lin Chang seethed.
This was a partnership he had worked tirelessly to secure, begging and pleading at every turn—only for it to collapse at the last moment.
"And that’s not all. We’ve already invested tens of millions in promoting our company’s sci-fi film, but because of your stunt, people are now boycotting it!"
"Meanwhile, Lin Xuan’s Skyline Group hasn’t even started promoting Wolf Warrior, and yet, it’s already capturing everyone’s attention!"
People chased after profit.
Theaters, seeing the hype around Wolf Warrior, would undoubtedly ignore his demands and screen it instead.
All his efforts had gone up in smoke.
Now, his only hope lay in the film’s quality. He was confident that their Void would surpass Wolf Warrior in that regard.
"And our currently airing Celestial Love—because of the backlash, its ratings will plummet even further. We’re facing total losses now."
"All of this is because of you, Jiang Shuqin!"
Lin Chang regretted it deeply.
He should have stopped her earlier.
He should never have expected Jiang Shuqin to do anything beneficial for the company.
"It’s really that bad?" Jiang Shuqin muttered in disbelief.
Not only had she failed to teach Lin Xuan and his company a lesson, but she had also ended up giving his film free publicity…
"Wan’er," Jiang Shuqin grabbed Lin Qingwan’s wrist, "Think of something, please. Help me fix this!"
She couldn’t let Lin Xuan benefit from this!
"Mom," Lin Qingwan shook her head, "On the way home, I kept trying to come up with a solution, but there’s nothing we can do."
"At this point, the only option is to stay silent and let time fade the outrage."
Jiang Shuqin paled, collapsing into a chair.
Trembling, she picked up the shattered phone from the floor and opened Weibo. The trending page was flooded with insults—all directed at her.
Fury coursed through her.
What did these people know? They were just fools deceived by Lin Xuan, yet they dared to hurl abuse at her!
Jiang Shuqin began frantically firing back, hurling insults at every critic.
Lin Chang watched her with utter disgust.
"I’m going to handle company matters. Don’t expect me back tonight," he snapped before storming out.
The once-harmonious family had become a battleground of conflicts ever since Lin Xuan left.
Lin Qingwan couldn’t help but think—
This was their retribution.
Their punishment for mistreating Xiao Xuan.
"I’m heading to the company too," Lin Qingwan said, irritation bubbling up. She couldn’t stand being in this house any longer.
Lin Qingyan spoke up next, "I have an event with the crew today. I’m leaving as well."
Lin Qingxiu added, "Lab work for me."
Soon, only Jiang Shuqin and Lin Li remained in the dining room.
Jiang Shuqin was still locked in her online war.
Troll: "Oh, defending Jiang Shuqin so hard? Are you her?"
Jiang Shuqin: "That’s right, it’s me! None of you understand—this is high society. What right do you people, earning a measly few thousand a month, have to judge us?"
Her tone dripped with condescension.
Her profile was filled with posts flaunting her luxurious lifestyle.
Once netizens confirmed her identity, their rage exploded.
They had been manipulated into attacking Lin Xuan, used as pawns in her scheme. Now, they turned their fury on her.
"You bitch! You tricked us into going after Lin Xuan, and now you have the nerve to show your face?"
"Oh, so we earn peanuts, huh? Are we eating your rice? Your company’s celebrities rely on fans like us to survive. Fine, if you don’t need us, we’ll just support Skyline Entertainment’s stars instead!"
Lei Hui, watching the drama unfold, saw an opportunity.
This was perfect.
He needed to escalate it.
Immediately, he contacted Weibo and arranged a free trending topic for Skyline Group:
#StarlightGroup’s Chairwoman Looks Down on Ordinary People#
Nothing infuriated the public more than wealthy elites flaunting their superiority.
The phrase spread like wildfire across platforms.
Calls to boycott Starlight Group’s games and celebrities surged, with fans shifting their support to Skyline’s artists.
Upon closer inspection, many realized Skyline’s talents were promising—worthy of their admiration.
Just like that, Skyline’s stars gained a wave of new fans.
When Lin Chang saw the hashtag, veins bulged on his forehead.
Jiang Shuqin!
That idiot!
She just kept making things worse!
Watching her spew one inflammatory remark after another, Lin Chang’s expression darkened. He snatched his phone and called Butler Wang.
"Go to Jiang Shuqin right now and smash her phone!" His voice was ice-cold.
"Sir, that might not be appropriate," Butler Wang hesitated. "If you have instructions for Madam, I can relay them."
Lin Chang: "Smash it now. And tell her if she has a problem with it, we’re getting a divorce."
Click.
He hung up with force.
Butler Wang had no choice but to comply.
Jiang Shuqin was gearing up for another round of online battles when Butler Wang approached.
"Madam, forgive me."
He seized the phone from her hands.
"Butler Wang, what are you doing?" Jiang Shuqin demanded.
Without a word, Butler Wang raised the device—and smashed it onto the floor.

u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances.

Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
