"Security."
"Security."
Jiang Shuqin shouted loudly.
Soon, security guards rushed over and dragged the female employee away.
Seeing no hope of returning to Jiang Yutong's company, the other employees also left dejectedly.
"Click."
"Click."
Those photographers were still taking pictures and recording.
Jiang Shuqin noticed.
"Still filming here!" she said angrily. "All of you, get out!"
These were all people Wan'er spent money to invite to the celebration banquet, yet one after another, they were reporting negative news about Wan'er's company.
A bunch of ungrateful wretches!
They were not welcome at their celebration banquet.
Seeing the banquet disband and having nothing good left to film, the reporters didn't linger.
"Let's go, let's leave."
The reporters and photographers left one after another.
As they walked, they couldn't help but exclaim.
"What happened today was really explosive, it was worth coming."
"Right, today's reports will definitely get a lot of traffic."
"Do you think Lin Xuan could have arranged all this today?"
"I think it's possible! The Lin family treated Lin Xuan like that, it's normal for him not to want them to have it easy. Besides, if Lin Xuan wasn't involved in this, why would he come with Jiang Yutong?"
"True. If Lin Xuan really had a hand in this, then he's formidable. The recent major scandals, like Lin Li's affair with Qin Ruoyao, Lin Li being exposed as a eunuch at the wedding, and bringing down Xinghui Group—Lin Xuan was involved in all these big stories. He's really something, this scandal-maker."
"Right, right. These all have one thing in common: they happened at banquets. We should pay more attention in the future to which banquets Lin Xuan attends and find ways to sneak in!"
The employees left, the reporters and photographers left.
The originally lively celebration banquet quickly became deserted.
Only the Lin family members remained.
And the three spectators: Lin Xuan, Jiang Yutong, and Lei Hui.
Lei Hui asked quietly, "Boss, should we leave now?"
Lin Xuan curled his lips. "No hurry."
"There's more good drama to come later. I haven't made my entrance yet."
He figured these Lin family members would soon come to him.
Jiang Shuqin had been staring grimly at Lin Xuan.
Lin Qingwan sat on the floor, looking devastated.
"Dad, what should I do now?"
"This is the company I've worked hard for many years to build. Dad, Mom, I don't want it to go bankrupt."
She had plagiarized products from Jiang Yutong's company.
It was a nailed-on fact that her Supreme Series skincare products caused facial disfigurement.
She couldn't see any way out for her company.
"Dad."
Lin Qingwan said with red-rimmed eyes, "Tell me, what should I do now?"
Lin Chang's mind was also a mess.
"I don't know either," he said, shaking his head.
Last time, his company faced a similar scene.
Plagiarism...
Being denounced and cursed by countless people.
All the company's games crashed.
Years of development at Xinghui Group were wiped out in just a few days...
"Big sister, how could you do something like plagiarizing skincare products from another company?"
Both Lin Qingyan and Lin Qingxiu found it hard to accept.
In their eyes, their big sister had always been very capable and decisive.
She had always been their role model.
Yet... she plagiarized...
Lin Qingwan shook her head. "I didn't want to. I simply don't have the financial resources like Jiang Yutong to develop a skincare company, nor can I find such good skincare researchers."
The skincare products their company developed themselves sold very poorly.
Only the copied products were relatively popular.
After tasting the sweetness of copying Jiang Yutong's products, she started down the path of plagiarism.
Every time Jiang Yutong's company released a skincare product, they would copy it.
They might slightly alter the formula, but it was largely the same.
This time, how did it fail...
"Lin Xuan!"
Jiang Shuqin rushed over.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow. "Here we go."
Jiang Yutong and Lei Hui very consciously moved aside.
They crossed their arms in unison, watching the drama unfold.
"It must be you!"
Jiang Shuqin charged up to Lin Xuan.
"You arranged all of today's events, didn't you?"
"Mrs. Chen, the Weibo hot searches, Zhong Yan—it was all you!"
"No, no."
Jiang Shuqin shook her head. "Not just that. From the very beginning, you conspired with Jiang Yutong to set a trap for Wan'er to fall into."
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.
This Jiang Shuqin was quite clever at this moment.
"Mom, don't misunderstand Xiao Xuan."
Lin Qingwan, with several scratch marks on her face, ran to Jiang Shuqin's side.
She grabbed Jiang Shuqin's hand.
"Mom, this has nothing to do with Xiao Xuan."
"Nothing to do with Lin Xuan!" Jiang Shuqin said furiously. "Then why did he bring Jiang Yutong here? And why did the celebration banquet have an accident?"
"Maybe it was all just a coincidence."
Lin Qingwan said softly.
She still refused to believe that Xiao Xuan would take action against her.
She was his big sister, after all.
"Coincidence?" Jiang Shuqin sneered. "Where in the world would there be such a coincidence?"
"I think everything that happened today was arranged by Lin Xuan!"
She was truly furious.
She had originally planned to rely on Wan'er's company to secure her footing in high society.
Now everything was ruined.
Those high-society ladies would still look down on her in the future.
"Mom, Xiao Xuan really just came today purely to celebrate my success."
Lin Qingwan looked at Lin Xuan, her eyes red, and said, "Xiao Xuan, quickly explain to Mom."
"Everything that happened today has nothing to do with you, right?"
Lin Qingwan looked at Lin Xuan pleadingly.
She also had a faint suspicion in her heart that today's events were arranged by Xiao Xuan.
She desperately needed Lin Xuan's denial.
Jiang Shuqin said coldly, "Would someone who did something bad admit what they did?"
As soon as her words fell, Lin Xuan's voice rang out. "That's right, I arranged it."
Lin Xuan said, "I had someone hint to Mrs. Chen that her face problem was due to skincare products, so she came looking."
"The hot searches and such were also arranged by people I sent."
Lin Qingwan was thunderstruck, frozen in place.
Lin Qingxiu and Lin Qingyan both wore expressions of disbelief.
Jiang Shuqin's face also showed shock.
However, she was surprised that Lin Xuan actually admitted it directly. She had thought he would deny it.
After recovering, Jiang Shuqin sneered. "I said it was Lin Xuan's doing, but you didn't believe me. Lin Xuan already hates us to the bone. He wouldn't specially come to a celebration banquet to congratulate us. So him coming was definitely to cause trouble!"

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
