Chapter 41 Deceiving disaster victims and fabricating stories will inevitably backfire!
Lu Lian'er, brimming with ambition, posted the video she had recorded to her own account.
After arriving at the disaster area, she immediately found a reporter with a large number of viewers in a live broadcast room and asked to be interviewed.
The reporter was too busy to recognize her.
It wasn't until she grabbed the reporter and introduced herself, "I'm Xia Mian's sister!"
The reporter paused, looking her up and down. "You're Xia Mian's sister? I didn't know Xia Mian had a sister?"
"My name is Lu Lian'er, and I am the adopted daughter of the Xia family." Lu Lian'er glanced at the reporter, speaking in a condescending tone.
"I donated a million worth of supplies! Xia Mian and Zhao Baoqi only donated a million each. Shouldn't you interview me?"
The reporter looked at Lu Lian'er, who was dressed very elegantly when she came to the disaster area. She was wearing a floral dress and heavy makeup, as if she was about to walk the runway.
Looking at Xia Mian, who was busily moving supplies in a simple dress not far away, the contrast was stark.
This reporter has met many people, and judging from Lu Lian'er's appearance and manner of speaking, he has a general understanding of what kind of person she is.
"Ms. Lu, I'm sorry, I'm very busy right now and don't have time to interview you."
Lu Lian'er stomped her feet in anger.
What an ungrateful reporter!
She wasn't the only reporter there!
Lu Lian'er looked around and fixed her gaze on a male reporter. "Reporter, could you interview me?"
She pulled out her old tricks of playing the innocent, manipulative girl.
The reporter was already reluctant to come to the scene and was feeling frustrated when a beautiful, coquettish woman suddenly appeared and offered to cooperate with his work.
He just didn't want to go into the deep water and was figuring out how to explain himself.
It's like Lu Lian'er, who was just dozing off, has been given a pillow!
The two hit it off immediately.
The reporter interviewed her and even went live on social media. Not only that, but the reporter also promised to write a feature article about her.
Lu Lian'er would mention from time to time that she was Xia Mian's younger sister, but Xia Mian always bullied her at home and took her things. However, she was determined to come and donate supplies during this disaster...
She is simply the embodiment of beauty and kindness!
Because she kept mentioning Xia Mian's privacy and spreading rumors about Xia Mian, the live stream gained some popularity, with about 10,000 people watching.
"Damn! Is this Xia Mian's sister? What's wrong with her?"
"It looks like a huge lump of green tea!"
"Do you believe it? The Xia Mian she's talking about is a disgusting wretch!"
"I'm unfollowing Xia Mian! This girl is pretty good! I feel like she's the epitome of beauty inside and out!"
"Hey upstairs, use your brain. You have three older brothers, and you got kicked out of the house! Your adopted sister enjoys all the pampering from her brothers. Do you think the problem is with your adopted sister, or with you?"
"A biological brother who doesn't love his biological sister but prefers to raise her? Is that brother out of his mind?"
"I don't know..."
"I believe in Xia Mian! Xia Mian is the best!"
"Hey, my adopted sister, you said you sent supplies, but what did you send?"
The chat in the live stream is about to erupt into a battle!
Lu Lian'er gained popularity by stepping on Xia Mian and also tasted the sweetness of it.
Her account started gaining followers not long after it started, although not many, only around 10,000, but she was still very happy.
They were completely unaware of how disgusting their behavior was.
At the same time, she found a PR company on Taobao and placed an order for 100,000 yuan!
The internet was flooded with negative information about Xia Mian bullying his adopted sister.
Any posts, short videos, or reports related to Xia Mian...
The comments below are all criticizing Xia Mian, calling her a bully who adopted her younger sister, calling her trash, calling her a fame-seeker, calling her a sugar daddy, and saying that the supplies she donated this time were funded by her sugar daddy!
Xia Mian, let's see how smug you are now!
Almost simultaneously, major companies released short videos or press releases about their donations, striving to let relevant departments and netizens see their compassion and their actions.
Only the Xia Group!
Remain silent!
Bored and restless at home, netizens flocked to the Xia Group's official account to hurl insults.
"Xia Mian is your sister? Your sister donated her blood! And you're just pretending to be dead?"
"This is disgusting! What a stingy company! I'll never buy anything from the Xia family again!"
"Boycott the Xia family!"
"A stingy, garbage company! Can't they see our fellow citizens suffering?"
Xia Qinglin sat in her office looking at her two younger brothers, her heart filled with anxiety.
"Isn't Lian'er in charge of this donation? Why hasn't anything happened yet?"
"Let me ask her." Xia Qingyang was about to call Lu Lian'er when Xia Qingfeng stopped her. "Lian'er is being interviewed! She's in this reporter's live broadcast studio. Look!"
Xia Qingfeng projected his phone image directly onto the wall.
As a result, the three brothers saw in the live stream that the supplies donated by the Xia family had become a donation made solely by Lu Lian'er, and had nothing to do with the Xia family.
The three brothers were dumbfounded.
"how so?"
"I don't know!"
Xia Qinglin thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps this is the first time Lian'er has handled something like this, and she didn't know that we should put up a banner with our Xia Group's name on it. She thought that since she was in charge, we should put up a banner with her name on it."
"At worst, we can donate another million!" Xia Qingfeng also felt that Lu Lian'er shouldn't be blamed. "Big brother, I'll take care of it."
"Okay. We must do it as soon as possible! Public opinion can destroy a person, and it can also destroy a company!" Xia Qinglin nodded solemnly.
As soon as Xia Qingfeng left the house, she sent a WeChat message to Lu Lian'er, asking her the exact location of the supplies she had purchased from an acquaintance.
Lu Lian'er originally didn't want to say, but then she thought that maybe her third brother wanted to know whether she had bought it or not.
So he sent the location to Xia Qingfeng.
Without saying a word, Xia Qingfeng headed straight for his destination.
When Xia Qingfeng saw that it was actually a small, illegal workshop, his eyes widened in astonishment.
"Lian'er, you actually bought it here?"
He sent the photo to Lu Lian'er.
"Third Brother, don't underestimate their small factory. Their products are genuine and much more affordable than those big brands. There are so many disaster victims. If we bought big brands, a million yuan would only buy a few truckloads!"
"They are just disaster victims, starving and grateful for any food they have. How could they dare to be picky?"
Xia Qingfeng was persuaded by Lu Lian, and without saying a word, he spent one million to fill three or four trucks and headed straight for the disaster area.
...
Xia Mian and Zhao Baoqi were exhausted. When they returned to the Fu family, they were soaked in water, their feet and calves were white and almost numb.
When Madam Fu saw the two girls like this, she felt extremely sorry for them and immediately arranged for the servants to prepare hot water.
"Quick, quick, take a hot bath."
"Oh my god, you two! Don't you want to live?"
"Grandma, me too, I'm so tired, I feel like crying!" Zhao Baoqi had never suffered so much or exerted so much effort in her life.
When Xia Mian sat in the bathtub, her mind was completely blank, and she felt drowsy.
Her phone rang. She glanced at it sideways, raised an eyebrow, and wondered what this woman was doing on the phone.
