That afternoon, Lin Qingtong posted an update on behalf of the company to announce the spokesperson.
The post also included a picture, a dark silhouette whose face was obscured.
This has caused quite a stir online, as many people are aware of what happened recently.
"That's strange. Didn't they say before that Liu Tingyu was the only spokesperson? Why have they suddenly announced a new spokesperson?"
"I'm afraid she regretted it and directly replaced her with Teacher Liu Tingyu."
When Lin Jiaorui saw this post, a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes.
They had previously vowed that they would never change their spokesperson, but now they have.
Doesn't she find it ridiculous? She's become a laughing stock herself.
Lin Jiaorui was overjoyed and lay on the bed laughing for a long time. This was the happiest day she had had since being hospitalized.
The bodyguard serving her glanced at her, but seeing her laughing to herself, he didn't pay much attention.
After Lin Jiaorui finished laughing, she made a phone call and gave cold instructions.
"I'll give you 200,000 to smear someone."
The other person seemed to be very familiar with Lin Jiaorui, and casually uttered a sentence.
"It's still Lin Qingtong, right?"
Lin Jiaorui nodded, a smug look on her face. "This time, we're going to target her for changing spokespeople, and at the same time, we'll promote our celebrity home furnishings together, understand?"
The other party curled their lip and made a demand, "These are two things that must cost one million."
"If you don't have a million, then find someone else to do it. Don't blame me if you expose a flaw later."
Lin Jiaorui almost ground her teeth to powder. How dare a mere online troll leader bully her?
But then I thought, as long as I can deal with Lin Qingtong, that one million won't be a problem at all.
So she agreed immediately.
"Go ahead and take care of it. It's just a million. I'll transfer it to you."
The other party replied directly: "Transfer it first before proceeding with the business; that's the rule."
Left with no other option, Lin Jiaorui transferred one million yuan to the other party and then kept a close eye on her phone.
Soon, she saw a flood of negative articles online, all targeting Lin Qingtong's previous statement that the spokesperson would only be Liu Tingyu.
Some more rational netizens raised questions about this.
"What if the spokesperson they're talking about is actually Liu Tingyu?"
He had barely finished speaking when he was refuted by many mindless netizens.
"You must be someone Lin Qingtong arranged, speaking up for her like this. Liu Tingyu is all abroad, and we haven't heard anything about her coming back."
"Treatment usually takes at least six months, how could you possibly be back in just one month? You must be joking."
After being attacked, the person simply deleted the comment and dared not say anything more.
The incident caused a great stir online, and in real life, people also came to the entrance of Sukai Furniture to peek inside, with a group of people pointing their phones at the storefront.
When Geng Xiangmei stepped forward to stop them, she was instead coldly rebuked by the other party.
"Bring your boss out here. How dare you deceive us consumers!"
"You said before that it had to be Teacher Liu Tingyu, but now you're promoting a new spokesperson. Aren't you afraid of going bankrupt?"
Geng Xiangmei smiled helplessly and explained, "Everyone, please calm down. Our spokesperson hasn't been announced yet. How do you know it's not Teacher Liu Tingyu?"
"Let's wait until the press conference, and everyone can see for themselves, okay?"
Those people didn't believe Geng Xiangmei's words at all; instead, they started to distort the truth.
"So you've admitted that the spokesperson isn't Ms. Liu Tingyu, right?"
"You're using Teacher Liu Tingyu to gain popularity, have you lost all your conscience?"
“Look, you yourselves have admitted that the new spokesperson is not Teacher Liu Tingyu.”
Upon hearing these words, Geng Xiangmei frowned and asked directly.
"When did I say that the spokesperson wasn't Ms. Liu Tingyu?"
The other party seemed to automatically ignore Geng Xiangmei's words, only wanting to hear the answer they imagined.
"You're just stalling for time by saying that."
Surrounded by the crowd, Geng Xiangmei couldn't explain herself clearly no matter how hard she tried.
She was furious and didn't want to waste any more words on these people, so she raised her hand and pushed them away.
"Please leave, we need to open for business here."
Unexpectedly, those people pointed at Geng Xiangmei and shouted.
"You actually pushed someone, that's so arrogant."
This group of people suddenly became very angry for no reason, and they swarmed forward as if they wanted to devour Geng Xiangmei.
Just then, a figure gracefully stepped out from the crowd, preventing this farce from happening.
"Instead of causing trouble here, why don't you come to our spokesperson launch event in a few days? I believe we will give you a satisfactory answer then."
Some of them were still unwilling to believe it, staring intently at Lin Qingtong. "Why should we believe you?"
Lin Qingtong didn't speak, but simply clapped her hands lightly, standing there with a cool and aloof expression.
In the next instant, several black-clad bodyguards emerged from all directions, their tall and imposing figures exuding an aura of oppression.
She then slowly began to speak.
"Should I ask you to leave?"
These people were immediately frightened when they saw that the bodyguards were all tall and strong, and glared fiercely at Lin Qingtong.
"Just you wait until the press conference, we'll make sure you're completely disgraced."
The group finally left. Lin Qingtong turned to Geng Xiangmei and asked her with concern.
"Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Geng Xiangmei shook her head and answered with a faint smile.
"You're not injured, but what's the next step?"
Her words carried a hint of worry; the level of unreasonable behavior these people had displayed was simply outrageous.
