Madam Shen stood there, a smile playing on her lips, and slowly spoke.
"This is our family business, why can't I come?"
"Didn't you say you were going to invest this money? How come you have another girlfriend now?"
Her gaze swept over Lin Jiaorui's protruding belly.
"So you were pregnant. Why didn't you bring her home to show Dad and the others?"
Madam Shen's calm demeanor frightened Lin Jiaorui, who feared that the other party was secretly planning something else.
Master Shen looked awkwardly as Madam Shen took two steps forward to explain.
"Madam, please don't misunderstand. She's just an employee I hired who was being bullied. I'm just standing up for her and helping her put on an act."
He spoke with such conviction, as if he had said it countless times before, and that he truly had no relationship with Lin Jiaorui.
Lin Jiaorui looked at Master Shen, who was trying to distance himself from her, and tears welled up in her eyes as she called out to him.
"Second brother..."
Before she could finish speaking, Second Master Shen glared at her and coldly threatened her.
"I advise you not to talk nonsense. I love my wife very much. If you anger me, don't blame me for taking everything back."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiaorui nearly ground her teeth to powder, and could only manage a forced smile.
"This must be your sister-in-law, right? Please don't misunderstand, we're just acting."
She smiled awkwardly, and the people around her looked at her with mocking smiles. They never expected to see such gossip while attending a red carpet event.
The mistress was caught red-handed by the man and had to admit that she was just an employee.
They wanted to see what Madam Shen would do.
Lin Qingtong is also someone I'd like to see.
Lin Qingtong stood there with her arms crossed, her eyes full of mockery.
"So it was all an act. I was wondering why you were so confident earlier. How could a young and beautiful girl like you possibly be interested in an elder like Master Shen?"
"After all, Second Master Shen is a few years older than our father."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiaorui's face turned even uglier than anything else, and she looked like she wanted to devour Lin Qingtong.
She felt a burning pain on her cheeks, as if she had been slapped hard across the face.
Just moments ago, Master Shen was confidently asserting his sovereignty, but now he's acting all heartless, trying to distance himself from the situation.
After watching the excitement to her heart's content, Lin Qingtong finally remembered the purpose of her visit.
Since she has chosen to continue cooperating with Liu Tingyu, we must support her.
Lin Qingtong then slowly walked to where the reporters were focused, her eyes and brows filled with a gentle smile.
"Today I want to announce something to everyone: I will continue to work with Ms. Liu Tingyu, and she will continue to be our spokesperson for Sukai Home Furnishings."
Lin Jiaorui couldn't help but feel puzzled when she heard Lin Qingtong's words.
Liu Tingyu has long been their spokesperson, so why did she say such things and deliberately emphasize them?
Could something have happened?
Just then, an employee approached Lin Jiaorui with his phone and cautiously offered a reminder.
"Sister Jiaorui, take a look at this."
Lin Jiaorui took the phone and glanced at it. Her expression changed instantly, and then her smile became even brighter.
I see. No wonder Lin Qingtong emphasized it specifically.
However, Lin Jiaorui felt that Lin Qingtong was just putting on an act and probably couldn't find any other spokespersons, so she was just trying to ride the wave of popularity to promote their Sukai Home Furnishings.
By the time Liu Tingyu returned from her treatment trip, the daylily had gone cold, let alone the matter of the spokesperson.
Lin Jiaorui crossed her arms, her face full of smugness.
"Don't be sad, sister. Teacher Liu Tingyu might be back in a while. She just wants to cancel the cooperation. There's no need to keep choosing her as the spokesperson. I have other suitable ones I can recommend to you."
Her hypocritical words disgusted Lin Qingtong.
Lin Qingtong glanced at Lin Jiaorui lazily and coldly, "I believe Teacher Liu Tingyu will be back soon. When that time comes, Sukai Home Furnishings will welcome her back."
"The phoenix rising from the ashes represents not only Teacher Liu Tingyu, but also our Sukai Home Furnishings. Years of hardship and trials will eventually lead to the most perfect you and me."
Her words resonated powerfully in everyone present, leaving them deeply moved.
In that instant, they felt that Lin Qingtong would definitely succeed.
Looking at Lin Qingtong, who was radiating light, Lin Jiaorui was so jealous that she was about to go crazy.
From childhood to adulthood, she has always been bathed in Lin Qingtong's dazzling light.
Others will never see her hard work and brilliance.
She seemed to be desperately trying to catch up, but she could never catch up with Lin Qingtong's pace and could only look up at her from behind.
Gradually, her initial admiration turned into jealousy and rage.
So much so that now, seeing Lin Qingtong's confident demeanor fills her with intense hatred. She always feels that Lin Qingtong has stolen her spotlight.
So Lin Jiaorui, still with a gentle smile on her face, began to sow discord.
"Although what my sister says sounds nice now, who can predict what will happen a few years from now?"
"If there's no contract binding us, then if my sister goes back on her word, where will Teacher Liu seek justice?"
She said this in order to get Lin Qingtong to agree to sign the agreement, and then bind her and Liu Tingyu, who was away for treatment, tightly so that they could not find anyone else to act as their spokesperson.
In this digital age, it's hard to get traffic if you don't have some gimmicks.
Some wealthy people are obsessed with award-winning actors and actresses, and they also want their zodiac signs to match.
She felt that Lin Qingtong wouldn't be able to hold out for long, and that breaking the contract would leave her with a handle to use against her.
