Chapter 781 Only Three Children Left
"What's going on? Is this trending topic pinned to the wall? Why can't it be taken down?"
"Incorrect username and password? That's strange, that's the password I used. Who hacked my account?"
"When did I post more than a hundred pieces of dirt on Xia Wanwan? How come I didn't know?"
The media was completely bewildered.
They had exposed Xia Wanwan's scandals, but they didn't have the energy to expose more than a hundred things a day, nor would they post them everywhere. In addition, the accounts and passwords that had always been managed by media insiders were all inaccessible, which made them start to doubt whether they were the owners of the accounts.
Ye Suqian had been calling for half a day but still hadn't seen the trending topic removed. That was bad enough, but the media also published a hundred scandals at once. Ye Suqian was secretly pleased, but pretended to be angry on the surface.
"Editor-in-Chief Li, the money has already been transferred to you. You promised to remove the trending topic, why haven't you done so yet?" Ye Suzhi asked.
Editor-in-Chief Li said innocently, "Our account was hacked and our login password was changed. We are appealing."
Ye Su: "Are you kidding me? Why would a hacker steal your account passwords? Are you taking the money but not wanting to do the job?"
Editor-in-Chief Li: "Even if you gave me a thousand lives, I wouldn't dare offend President Huo. It really was hacked, and the headlines and trending topics can't be taken down."
"Okay, handle it as soon as possible, don't wait until President Huo loses his temper to regret it." Ye Su hung up the phone and started contacting the second and third media outlets.
Surprisingly, almost every media outlet gave the same story: they had been hacked. This made Ye Su suspect that they were all lying in concert.
However, everyone provided evidence proving that their accounts had indeed been hacked and that they couldn't delete Xia Wanwan's scandals, so Ye Su had no choice but to report the truth to Huo Nanxiao.
"President, there's been a problem with the media. They've all been hacked and can't log into their work accounts. They can't even remove the headlines." Ye Su said cautiously.
Huo Nanxiao looked displeased: "What are you talking about?"
Ye Su: "It's all true. I've already had the technical department check it out. Their accounts were all hacked, and the passwords were changed. It will take at least three days to appeal and get the accounts back. In other words, all the scandals about Xia Wanwan can't be deleted within these three days."
Huo Nanxiao frowned: "Where did this hacker come from?"
"It's not clear yet," Ye Su said, also puzzled.
Huo Nanxiao said angrily, "Go investigate!"
"Okay." Ye Su left the president's office.
The technical department spent a long time investigating but couldn't find out who did it. In the end, they could only locate the hacker's IP address, which was the staff dormitory that Ling Shuang had prepared for the medical team.
Huo Nanxiao called Ling Shuang to inquire about the matter.
Ling Shuang looked innocent: "Mr. Huo, are you sick? Why would I harm Xia Wanwan if I have no grudge against her?"
"The hacker's IP address was located on your territory. Does this have nothing to do with you?" Huo Nanxiao questioned.
Ling Shuang: "Your fiancée is already disreputable, why should I waste my time and energy smearing her? I'm not that bored, and I have no interest in President Huo's scandals. Instead of wasting your time on me, you should think about how to salvage Xia Wanwan's reputation."
She didn't give Huo Nanxiao any face at all.
Others might not dare to provoke Huo Nanxiao because of his power and resources, but Ling Shuang is different. She knows clearly that Xia Ningxi and Tang En's entire team are doing their best to save their loved ones. At this time, she would never betray Xia Ningxi.
As for Xia Wanwan, she was never one to be seen in public. She did one shameful thing after another, yet she was afraid of being ridiculed.
Ling Shuang hung up the phone without any politeness.
However, the attacks on Xia Wanwan continued, and a group of public accounts started attacking Huo Nanxiao after criticizing Xia Wanwan.
The public security department of Yunting Group is extremely busy, and the technical department is also very exhausted.
"President, the hacker's location is indeed within the Ling family's territory. It might really be the Ling family's doing." The technical department's tone was very firm.
Ye Su: "Ke Ling Shuang doesn't admit it."
Technical department: "It was the Ling family who did it. We have all the evidence. It's not her place to deny it."
Ye Su: "Ling Shuang is, after all, the eldest daughter of the Ling family. Even if she really did it, there's nothing we can do to her."
As for why Ling Shuang did this, that remains unknown.
Could it be that he deliberately retaliated against Xia Wanwan to avenge Xia Ningxi?
It's not impossible.
Ye Su: "Perhaps Ling Shuang wanted to please the young mistress. After all, the young mistress has suffered such a great injustice, and she must have been unable to bear it, so she hired a hacker to attack Xia Wanwan."
“She won’t,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Ye Su asked in confusion, "Why is the president so certain?"
"Given her status, she doesn't need to play dumb."
Huo Nanxiao's feelings were very complicated.
Ling Shuang was born into a prestigious family and took over important work within the family, making her very successful. If she wanted to harm Xia Wanwan, what difference would it make if she admitted it? She wasn't afraid of being retaliated against by Huo Nanxiao at all, so hiring the hacker was probably not Ling Shuang's doing.
Ye Su: "But the location is in Ling Shuang's territory, where Tang En and his group live. Could it be Tang En who did it?"
“Tang En and the rest of the medical team are at the hospital watching over Lin Jiangbei,” Huo Nanxiao replied.
Ye Su: "Then only three children are left. The young masters and Miss Chu Chu might also do such a thing, right?"
Huo Nanxiao was also exasperated. How could three children, barely a few years old, paralyze so many media outlets? What a joke!
He didn't believe it; he couldn't believe his child had such great abilities.
Huo Nanxiao: "Investigate Tang En, and while you're at it, check if Li Yancheng has been in contact with Xia Ningxi recently."
"Okay." Ye Su focused her investigation on Tang En and Li Yancheng, but ultimately found no clear results.
This really stumped Ye Su.
As Xia Wanwan's reputation grew increasingly tarnished, they were powerless to do anything but watch helplessly from the company.
Meanwhile, on the Xia family's side, Zhou Fenglin kept calling Huo Nanxiao to complain, and when he couldn't reach Huo Nanxiao, he would harass Ye Su and Lu Qi.
Ye Su ignored Zhou Fenglin. As for Lu Qi, he was also curious about who had made such a ruthless move. He asked Zhou Fenglin, "It's no use talking to our president. The president has already spent 50 million on public relations, but it's had no effect. You should tell Xia Wanwan to think carefully about who else she has offended."
"Besides Xia Ningxi and Li Yancheng, who else could it be? It must be them who are smearing Wanwan everywhere. Young Master Huo, you must stand up for Wanwan!" Zhou Fenglin cried on the phone, tears streaming down his face.
Lu Qi said, "Now it's not a question of whether we can make a decision or not, but that all the media outlets' official accounts have been hacked. We can't log in to our accounts and can't delete Xia Wanwan's scandals. It's no use making a fuss here. We can't catch the hackers unless you have the ability to find them. Only then can this matter be resolved."
