Chapter 171 Deleted this group photo
After Jiangning Company went bankrupt, even her white BMW 3 Series was mortgaged, leaving her penniless and destitute.
Even FY's most recent dividend was transferred to Bai Yichen's mother.
Walking on the coastal bridge, the sea breeze blowing through Jiangning made his mind exceptionally clear.
She took out her phone and opened the password-protected private photo album.
There is only one photo in the album.
It's a photo of her and Lu Junyan.
Back in the juvenile detention center, they finally got a cell phone, and she secretly took this photo.
She didn't know if Lu Junyan knew she was secretly filming him at that time. He might not have noticed, or he might have been pretending not to know.
The juvenile detention center in City A operates on a management model that combines elements of both a school and a prison, and they are occasionally allowed to obtain cell phones.
Jiang Ning was very fortunate at that time to have managed to take a photo with Lu Junyan.
She felt that she was the one who fell in love with Lu Junyan first.
When a young girl is just beginning to experience romantic feelings, it's really hard to resist Lu Junyan's charm.
Later, Lu Junyan must have genuinely liked her, otherwise he wouldn't have made a promise to her that he would never forget her and that they would be together forever.
For young men and women, vows of eternal love and unwavering devotion are incredibly appealing.
Jiang Ning was thus drawn into the situation.
She cherished and preserved this only photo of herself with Lu Junyan, no matter how many times she changed phones afterward.
It's as if this group photo encapsulates her entire youth, a reflection of her most sincere and passionate love.
Jiang Ning stared at the photo on her phone screen for a very long time.
Then I deleted that group photo.
The photos are gone, and the private album I set up is also gone.
In this way, Jiang Ning's phone will no longer contain any secrets.
There are no shackles.
Jiang Ning looked up at the sky and took a breath of the salty sea breeze.
The sea breeze was quite biting, and it messed up her hair.
However, the smile on her face was not blown away.
Jiang Ning remembered what Gu Lanlan had said to her when they were eating hot pot yesterday.
Gu Lanlan said that Lu Junyan was just a man. Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are everywhere!
In the past, Jiang Ning might have argued that Gu Lanlan had no experience in relationships and therefore couldn't understand how difficult it is to extricate oneself from deep love.
But now, Jiang Ning also thinks Gu Lanlan is right.
Jiang Ning opened the job search app to see how many companies had already viewed the resumes she had sent out the night before.
Many people have reviewed her resume, but so far, not a single HR person has called her.
Jiang Ning wasn't in a hurry. The economy was bad these days, and jobs weren't easy to find, so she had to be patient.
Before turning off her phone screen, she wondered what had happened to her trending topics. When she checked various websites, she found that there wasn't a single negative news item about her.
"Huh?"
Jiang Ning was surprised.
She wouldn't presume to think that Lu Junyan had helped her resolve the situation.
If Lu Junyan truly wanted to help her, he would never have allowed public opinion to escalate to this point.
Jiang Ning thought for a moment, and there was only one person she could think of who was willing and able to help her, and who was also in a different time zone from Country A.
She picked up her phone and dialed a number.
"Hey, Chu."
Zhong Cheng still can't get used to calling Lin Chu by the name "Jiang Ning".
In the past, Jiang Ning would not have paid any attention to Zhong Cheng.
Because she is no longer Lin Chu, every time she is called "A Chu", it makes her seem as if she still has some connection with the Lin family.
Previously, when she asked Zhong Cheng to hack into the photographer's electronic devices, and when Zhong Cheng offered to help her find incriminating evidence against Shen Feiyang, she always ignored him whenever he called her A-Chu.
This time, however, Jiang Ning did not dwell on the issue of the title.
"You were the one who helped me remove the trending topic, weren't you?"
“They used illegitimate means, but they couldn’t find out.”
Zhong Cheng sounded very confident on the phone.
Jiang Ning couldn't help but chuckle.
On the surface, Zhong Cheng is the Lin family's driver and assistant, but he is also a bodyguard, a hacker, and has great abilities.
"Thank you so much for helping me."
"I wanted to apologize to you!"
Zhong Cheng's voice was very sincere.
“I’m in Country C, so I’m not that sensitive to trending topics in Country A. If I had noticed it earlier, I could have stopped the public opinion from escalating sooner.”
"It's not your fault, why are you apologizing?"
Jiang Ning shrugged.
She trends on social media quite often, for good and bad, true and false reasons, and she's gotten used to it.
If we are truly defeated by those keyboard warriors online, wouldn't that just fulfill the wishes of the mastermind behind the scenes?
Jiangning won't.
Regardless of who is behind this, since their goal is to ruin her reputation and bankrupt her company, she is determined to make a comeback.
"By the way, those two don't know about me, right?"
Zhong Cheng understood who Jiang Ning was referring to when he said "those two people".
Since she became "Jiangning", she no longer calls them "Mom and Dad".
"Don't worry, I didn't tell anyone. I did it secretly."
"Impressive, no wonder he's the world's number one hacker."
Zhong Cheng, on the other end of the phone, was taken aback by Jiang Ning's praise.
Although Jiang Ning couldn't see Zhong Cheng in person, she could guess that Zhong Cheng must have been embarrassed by her praise.
"By the way, Chu, even if you hadn't called me, I would still have wanted to contact you."
The smile on Jiang Ning's face gradually faded.
Her intuition told her that what Zhong Cheng was about to tell her might not be good news.
"The old man..."
As soon as the three words "now" rang in his ears, Jiang Ning suddenly raised his eyelids, his expression changed drastically, and his eyes were filled with hatred.
"The old man had Minister Lin adopt a girl as his daughter."
Lu's Group.
Xiao Zhang was reporting to Lu Junyan about the progress of the FZZL project.
Who removed the trending topic?
Out of the blue, Lu Junyan asked this question.
Xiao Zhang was stunned, not understanding why.
"What?"
Lu Junyan looked up, his gaze towards Xiao Zhang filled with displeasure.
Xiao Zhang immediately realized that Lu Junyan did not want to repeat what he had just said.
Trending topics...
Previously, the trending topics were all insults directed at Jiang Ning, but now...
He didn't even see the trending topics!
Xiao Zhang wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Mr. Lu, please give me five minutes."
After saying that, Xiao Zhang hurriedly ran out.
Five minutes later, he returned.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu... I can't find out who removed the trending topic, and the major platforms don't know either. They say it's like they got infected with a virus overnight."
After listening to Xiao Zhang's words, Lu Junyan remained silent for a moment, then smiled.
"Did the entire internet get infected with a virus at the same time...?"
Moreover, the only trending topics that disappeared out of nowhere were related to Jiangning.
Lu Junyan twirled the pen in his hand.
He had been waiting to see if Jiang Ning would come begging to him when he hit rock bottom...
The pen clattered onto the desk, and Lu Junyan frowned.
Just then, his phone rang; it was a call.
