Chapter 230 -230: To use one’s own method against them.

Shang Shaojing’s expression wasn’t looking too good either.

He had always been the winner in any field, and there had never been an exception.

But now, he was being overshadowed by a woman in every aspect of the show.

It was extremely vexing for him.

After patting Su Yinwan on the shoulder to console her, he said, “Don’t worry, I’ll think of something.”

As soon as he had said this, he turned and made a phone call.

Within minutes, dozens of Crystal Castles flashed across Su Yinwan’s livestream screen, and in an instant, she ousted Jiang Li and became the top of both charts.

Su Yinwan was thrilled, and quickly embraced Shang Shaojing.

“Brother Shaojing, did you arrange this? Won’t it be too costly?”

“Just 50 million,” Shang Shaojing said dismissively, putting down his phone, “Don’t worry about it.”

[Damn, President Shang is really loaded, splashing 50 million just like that.]

[I finally understand why ancient emperors would spend freely just to make a beauty smile. President Shang, can you v me 5000? I’d be happy to give you a smile in return.]

[But seriously, doesn’t anyone feel like Su Yinwan is kind of cunning? It seems like she’s deliberately asking Shang Shaojing for perks, which is a bit distasteful.]

[If one is willing to strike and the other is willing to be struck, aren’t some people being a bit too nosy? If you’re jealous, why not find a man who can easily spend 50 million on you?]

Beside the monitors, the assistant director’s hands trembled at the rising value of gifts in the livestreams.

“O-Old Sun, the combined gifts for these people are more than 100 million, shouldn’t we step in?” he stammered.

“Not yet, we haven’t reached the limit segment,” Director Sun said.

He seemed calm and collected, sipping his tea, yet his hands couldn’t stop shaking.

Goodness gracious.

Over 100 million.

It was enough for him to be busy for half his life, these rich young masters really know how to splurge!

Meanwhile, at the merchant’s.

Father Shang frowned as he looked at the bank statement handed to him by Shang Shaobai.

“Did your brother spend all this in one morning?”

“Yes, Father,” Shang Shaobai replied reverently, “It’s just some small change. I initially didn’t think it was necessary to tell you, but… I feel that Shaojing using this money to boost the popularity of a star’s livestream isn’t quite appropriate, and there have been quite a few rumors in the company already this morning….”

“What rumors?”

“They say, say that Shaojing is neglecting his duties as the CEO to become an actor’s assistant, depreciating our brand’s value; others speculate that Shaojing might be planning to resign and join the entertainment industry as a star…”

Old and traditional wealthy families have always looked down on the entertainment industry, and the merchant’s, being an old-established family, was no exception.

Hearing this, Father Shang’s complexion turned even uglier, and he slapped his hand on the table with a ‘hmph’.

“That boy, he’ll get what’s coming to him when he gets back!”

–

At the Huo Family.

Huo Xuan, who was still upset by the theatrical display from that mother and son pair, had not yet recovered.

Just as she was choking down her anger and about to put some pressure on her father in a frenzy, she happened to glance at her phone screen and realized that over a hundred thousand netizens were all giving her advice—

[F*ck it, you should go up there and slap both of those scumbags. Crime is now justified?]

“Sister Li, send me your address and I’ll organize a sisterhood to tear these two apart—they’re just too fucking disgusting.”

“Damn it, somebody dug up Huo Ziyang’s past and said he seemed to have some beef with Jiangyan before, so he went crazy buying his bad press. Speechless, how can there be people with such a strong desire for revenge?”

“Huh? What does his problem with Jiangyan have to do with our Sister Li? Why would they cyberbully Sister Li? That’s just too much.”

And then, through the earpiece, came the faint voice of Jiang Li—

“Actually, Huo Xuan, if you want to solve the problem now and take back your position, it’s quite simple… Just play the sympathy card like your stepmother does and give them a taste of their own medicine.”

“Your father still loves you very much. If he knew that your stepmother was secretly prompting you towards a marriage with a scumbag, he would be furious.”

“Then you would be the one in control, and the fate of those two would be up to you.”

Zhao Lang was a bit surprised to hear this, but at the same time, it seemed within expectations.

After all, this girl was far from as naïve as she appeared.

On the contrary, her eyes were filled with a worldliness and pretended foolishness that belied an underlying innocence.

Like a lake frozen for miles, seeming pure on the surface, yet with an abyss lurking beneath.

He couldn’t help but be curious.

How had someone so young come to understand these matters so well?

In fact, Jiang Li had long been accustomed to such scenes.

In the grand households of the ancient Marquis Mansion, schemes and cunning unfolded almost daily.

Much more intense than this.

Having seen so much and dealt with so much, she naturally knew how to counterattack and protect herself without compromising her morals.

Punishing the villains a bit and fighting for her personal rights was perfectly acceptable.

Hearing Jiang Li’s words, Huo Xuan suddenly had an insight.

Right, she had dealt with so many scheming female characters, why couldn’t she use their tactics to deal with that mother and son?

With that thought, Huo Xuan’s eyes spun swiftly, and, with a hard pinch to her thigh, she immediately squeezed out two streams of tears.

“Dad, I did get a bit too agitated, please don’t be angry, it’s not worth damaging your health.”

“Auntie was also thinking of Yangyang’s best interest, just got a bit confused and gave him the card. It’s only ten million; it’s not worth spoiling the family harmony over.”

Sitting on the ground and crying, Madam Huo raised her head in surprise at the words.

What was going on with this girl today?

One moment she was angry, the next she was speaking up for them?

But before she could voice a response, she heard Huo Xuan make a shy statement, “Auntie has been considering my best interest, knowing I wanted to get married. A few days ago, she even introduced me to a guy. His conditions seemed pretty good, and I was thinking of bringing him home for you to see, but you can’t stay this angry.”

Mr. Huo was sweet-talked into a good mood by his daughter’s loving words and instantly grinned from ear to ear, “You, you’ve always had a sharp tongue since you were little. Are you so eager to get married and leave your father? Tell me, who almost deceived my precious daughter away?”

Madam Huo’s face turned deathly pale.

She had just started to speak to stop her, but Huo Xuan beat her to it by quickly revealing the name.

“Dad, you know who he is, the Manager Gao’s brother who visited our house last time, the one dressed in a black suit, quite handsome.”

Mr. Huo’s expression instantly darkened.

“What did you say? Manager Gao’s brother?!”

Huo Xuan nodded shyly, “Yes, Dad, what’s wrong? I’ve been seeing him for a while now, and he’s actually quite nice.”

Mr. Huo grabbed a surviving glass from the nearby table and hurled it to the floor, then turned a wrathful glare on Madam Huo.

“Liu Linmei! Are you doing this on purpose? I told you just a while ago that Manager Gao wasn’t up to any good, let alone his brother. I warned you to keep him away from Xuanxuan, but you turn around and introduce him to Xuanxuan? Is this how you treat my daughter?!”
