"That's all in the past. I neglected Xuan before, but now I'm trying my best to make it up to him," Lin Qingwan said, her voice choked with sobs.
It's just that Xuan wouldn't accept her gestures.
That wasn't her fault.
"Lin Qingwan, what happened can never disappear. No matter how much you try to make amends, you can't cover up the pain you and your Lin family caused Xuan." Just thinking about Lin Xuan's past experiences, Jiang Yutong felt a heart-wrenching pain.
If anyone else had lived the life Xuan had before, they probably would have fallen into depression or taken their own life long ago.
Only someone as strong as Xuan could endure for so long, even breaking free from the Lin family and making something of himself.
"Lin Qingwan, you keep saying you want to be good to Xuan now, but where were you back then?" Jiang Yutong said.
"Xuan, forgive your big sister, please forgive your big sister, okay?"
Lin Qingwan, her hair disheveled, ran over and grabbed Lin Xuan's hand.
"We have no relationship anymore."
Lin Xuan shook off Lin Qingwan's hand once again.
"Ah—"
Lin Qingwan fell to the ground. There were broken bottles on the floor, and glass shards pierced her palms and knees, which were soon covered in blood.
She couldn't feel any pain at all.
"Xuan..."
Lin Qingwan looked at Lin Xuan, her eyes filled with betrayal, agony, and regret.
"I am your own sister."
She had changed her ways later on.
Why was Xuan still punishing her like this?
"Xuan."
Lin Qingwan looked at Lin Xuan pleadingly, "Now that you've brought the company to this state, you've had your revenge. Can you forgive your big sister now?"
Lin Xuan let out a scornful laugh, "I will never, ever forgive any of you Lins."
It was only in this lifetime, because he had distanced himself from them.
They weren't used to him no longer following them around like a dog, so they started remembering him one by one.
If in this lifetime, he were still like before, giving his all to be good to them, they still wouldn't give him a second glance.
The Lin family members were all cold-hearted and selfish.
"You'd better watch out for yourselves."
Lin Xuan's gaze swept over each member of the Lin family in turn.
Lin Qingyan rubbed her arm.
Xuan's eyes were really, so cold...
"Let's go."
Lin Xuan left with Lei Hui and Jiang Yutong.
Lin Qingwan still sat on the ground, muttering to herself, "How could it be Xuan? How could he be the one who did this?"
Jiang Shuqin sneered from the side, "I told you so. Whenever Lin Xuan shows up, nothing good happens. I told you to chase him away, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what happened. Wan'er's company is in such big trouble. What do you plan to do about it?"
No one from the Lin family made a sound.
Lin Qingyan said softly, "Actually, you can't blame Xuan for this. If Big Sister hadn't copied the skincare products from Jiang Yutong's company and tried to claim them as her own, this wouldn't have happened."
The only thing Xuan did wrong in this matter was being too ruthless.
"Lin Qingyan, whose side are you on?" Jiang Shuqin said angrily, "Your big sister's company has been ruined by Lin Xuan, and you're still speaking up for him!"
"Well, it's the truth," Lin Qingyan mumbled.
She had always admired her big sister, considering her an idol.
Her first reaction when the skincare products were exposed as problematic was that someone had tampered with them.
Later, she found out that Big Sister had plagiarized the skincare products from Jiang Yutong's company.
Because she copied it wrong, it led to the problems with the skincare products.
She felt her big sister had brought this upon herself.
Fortunately, Jiang Shuqin didn't hear Lin Qingyan say this, or she would have flown into another rage.
"Gone, everything is gone."
Lin Qingwan looked completely lost, as if her soul had left her body.
The company's current situation, even if salvaged, would be half-dead.
If the company couldn't develop, she wouldn't be able to become Xuan's support.
Her wish to get Xuan to recognize her as family again would be even more impossible.
Jiang Shuqin glared at Lin Chang, "Lin Chang, why are you just standing there dumbly without saying a word? I usually don't care about your affairs, but now that Wan'er has encountered such a huge problem, aren't you going to think of a solution quickly?"
"There's no way," Lin Chang shook his head. "The news about the disfiguring skincare products from Wan'er's company is all over the internet now. Our Lin family doesn't have the power to silence everyone."
Every time Lin Xuan strikes, it's a fatal blow.
We don't even have a chance to fight back.
What's even more hateful is that Lin Xuan not only brings us down but also uses us to climb higher himself.
Jiang Shuqin's face turned pale.
No... that would mean those high-society ladies would look down on her with disdain again, just like before...
No!
She couldn't accept that.
She had to think of a way to get Wan'er's company back on its feet.
Jiang Shuqin thought frantically.
Remembering something, her eyes lit up.
"Wan'er, I've got it! I have a solution!" Jiang Shuqin said excitedly, grabbing Lin Qingwan's arm.
"Didn't they say the problem with your skincare product is that Qilin Herb ingredient? Then tackle it from that angle. Replace the Qilin Herb with a non-toxic ingredient. Wouldn't that work?" Jiang Shuqin said excitedly.
The effects of those skincare products were very good. As long as they don't disfigure people, everyone will still use them.
Lin Qingwan still wore a devastated expression.
"It's useless," Lin Chang continued shaking his head. "Consumers won't risk their faces to try Wan'er's company's skincare products again."
"Then what if we rebrand, start a new company? Wouldn't that work?" Jiang Shuqin suggested again.
As long as there's a good product, she believed the company could develop quickly.
"No."
Lin Chang still shook his head. "This time, Jiang Yutong's company will use Wan'er's company as a stepping stone to rise, and they're selling products to treat facial damage. Their company's skincare line will soon become famous. Developing similar products won't sell either."
"Also, the matter is now known to everyone. If Wan'er's company sells identical products, they'll definitely be watched closely. With the scandal of her company's products causing disfigurement exposed, those skincare products would surely be boycotted."
This incident has blown up too big.
There's simply no way to sweep it under the rug.
Any money invested would be wasted.
The Lin family will have no way to enter the cosmetics industry in the future.

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?
