The security guard glanced at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan nodded towards him.
Only then did the security guard speak respectfully, "Understood, Miss Lin. I'll have her removed right away."
Mrs. Chen was dragged away.
Lei Hui frowned, "Boss, is that all the drama for now?"
Mrs. Chen had just caused a huge scene before being thrown out.
He felt it really wasn't satisfying enough.
Lin Xuan smiled, "Mrs. Chen showing up at the celebration banquet is just an appetizer. Don't worry, they won't be able to suppress this incident."
Women place great importance on their faces.
If their faces were disfigured from using the Supreme Series skincare products, they definitely wouldn't let Lin Qingwan's company off the hook.
"Let's keep watching," Lin Xuan said with a smile.
Seeing the smile at the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth, Lei Hui shivered.
When the boss schemes against someone, that look in his eyes is just too, too terrifying.
Thank goodness he wasn't the one the boss was targeting.
As long as he focused on developing the company honestly and didn't accept bribes, the boss probably wouldn't use these tactics on him.
Jiang Yutong asked curiously, "Mr. Lin, what other arrangements do you have for later?"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow and said, "You'll find out if you just keep watching."
"Mhm, okay."
Jiang Yutong nodded.
Lei Hui leaned over and whispered to Jiang Yutong, "Second Miss Jiang, didn't the boss's expression just now look really scary?"
Jiang Yutong nodded, "It was quite scary, but actually, I think Xiao Xuan is rather adorable."
Lei Hui: "..."
The boss is adorable?
Indeed, birds of a feather flock together.
After Mrs. Chen was taken away from the celebration banquet by security, Lin Qingwan also breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed this matter was resolved for now.
Later, she would spend some money to smooth things over, and there should be no further issues.
Lin Qingwan smiled, "There was a minor interruption at today's celebration banquet, but everyone can rest assured, it's been handled."
"Next, everyone, please feel free to eat, drink, and enjoy yourselves."
As soon as Lin Qingwan finished speaking,
a reporter loudly said, "Look! The news about DR Beauty's Supreme Series skincare causing facial disfigurement is trending on hot search! It turns out it's not just Mrs. Chen whose face was damaged, there are many! This definitely isn't just a simple allergy issue; there must be a problem with the cosmetics."
Lin Qingwan's heart skipped a beat.
Everyone present quickly took out their phones to check.
Opening Weibo,
many people had posted pictures of their faces.
[Lin Qingwan, you have no shame! Actually using disfiguring ingredients to make skincare products!]
[I used the skincare too. Seeing the good results, I used it every day. Now my face is starting to break out. Is the next step to fester and ooze like that woman? What should I do?]
[Lin Qingwan, if my face is truly disfigured, I won't let you off the hook!]
Posts refreshed rapidly, one after another.
Lin Qingwan logged into the company account on her Weibo.
Countless people were privately messaging her with insults.
Lin Qingwan stared at her phone, shaking her head. "Impossible, this can't be," she murmured in disbelief.
She was certain there were no issues with the skincare products her company developed.
So how could so many people still have problems with their faces?
She couldn't panic.
Someone must be framing their company.
Lin Qingwan's gloomy gaze fell on Jiang Yutong.
It must be Jiang Yutong!
Jiang Yutong couldn't stand that her skincare company was developing so successfully.
So Jiang Yutong bribed Mrs. Chen and bought internet trolls to smear them with dirty water!
If she panicked now, she would be playing right into Jiang Yutong's hands.
She had to stay calm and handle this matter properly.
The company manager shook his head.
What he had feared seemed to be coming true.
No one understood better than him that those girls' faces didn't become like that because of allergies.
The manager took out his phone and replied to a message from someone, "I'm willing to join your company. I'll start next week."
He was certain that Lin Xuan must have had a hand in this skincare incident.
With Lin Xuan involved, it was basically impossible for DR Beauty to recover.
He needed to secure a new job for himself in advance.
The manager didn't linger at the celebration banquet any longer and left the company.
Lin Qingwan gripped her phone tightly, her face pale. "It's fake, all fake! These photos must have been photoshopped. Everyone, you mustn't believe them!"
Lin Xuan continued leisurely sipping his tea.
Lei Hui watched Lin Qingwan with great interest.
The look on Lin Qingwan's face was spectacular! Absolutely spectacular!
Eating melon (watching drama) with the boss is just so fun!
Jiang Shuqin also spoke up, "This incident happened too suddenly. It must be that some people are intentionally orchestrating all of this. These are all fabrications. Everyone can rest assured, there's no problem with the Supreme Series skincare products."
Jiang Shuqin's words hinted pointedly at Lin Xuan.
Sure enough.
Lin Xuan came to Wan'er's celebration banquet fully prepared.
Lin Xuan really was the bane of the Lin family!
Lin Chang also strode to Lin Qingwan's side. "Wan'er, if we don't resolve this matter today, people with ulterior motives will definitely keep discussing it, and it will snowball. It will be hard to manage later."
Skincare relies heavily on reputation.
If the reputation of the Supreme Series skincare collapses, then the development of DR Beauty Company would basically be finished.
So it had to be resolved immediately.
Lin Qingwan still had full confidence in her company's Supreme Series skincare.
She nodded and said, "Dad, I'll handle it as quickly as possible."
"I know nothing I say now will be of any use," Lin Qingwan picked up the microphone, took a deep breath, and said.
"Then, I will use practical action to prove the innocence of my company's skincare products."
"President Lin, how do you plan to prove it?" another reporter asked.
Lin Qingwan replied, "Won't an on-the-spot analysis of the skincare ingredients suffice?"
The reporters all nodded.
That was indeed a good method.
If the analysis results showed no issues, it would basically confirm that Lin Qingwan's company was in the clear.
Lei Hui shook his head. "Another person digging their own grave."
As the boss's trusted aide, he knew exactly what the Supreme Series skincare from Lin Qingwan's company was like.
Since the boss arranged the hot search at this timing, naturally, the inspectors had also been arranged.
Lin Qingwan's cosmetics simply couldn't withstand inspection.
Lin Xuan curled his lips. "The Lin family members are all too confident in themselves."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to so easily bring down Star Glory Group and Lin Qingwan's DR Beauty Company.
Lei Hui stroked his chin. "I'm already looking forward to the look on Lin Qingwan's face when the analysis results come out."
He could guarantee that the expression on Lin Qingwan's face would be absolutely, absolutely spectacular.
Lin Xuan smiled faintly, picked up a glass of wine, and continued drinking.

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
