Auction site.
Qiao Yin sat nonchalantly with her laptop, having managed to disable several computers on the other side, finally quieting them down.
However, she was not satisfied.
Why did they stop?
She had intended to disable all Madam Lu’s computers and mobile phones!
Thinking of the scene where Madam Lu panics and rages, she felt refreshed!
As a result, the live auction proceeded smoothly, Lu Yanxi briefly explained the sudden appearance of the internet trolls, attributing it to malicious slander. She insisted that all their employees were of good character and promised that the details and progress of the donations would be public, welcoming everyone to supervise.
By eight-thirty, the charity auction had successfully raised twenty million, marking its successful completion.
Afterward, Qiao Yin, Lu Yanxi, and their colleagues returned to the office to wrap up the work.
Lu Yanxi had maintained a grim face throughout. Back in the office, she vented by slamming the table and cursing, “It must be Eldest Aunt’s doing! So sinister, hiring internet trolls to tarnish us, nearly ruining all our efforts!”
Qiao Yin was just as furious. Madam Lu could bear a grudge against her, but to also involve Lu Yanxi was malicious. She was trying to force Lu Yanxi to fire her.
She softly consoled her, “Thankfully, everything went smoothly afterward. The trolls only appeared for a few minutes, so it didn’t cause much damage.
Everyone was still very enthusiastic during the auction.”
Lu Yanxi felt like confronting Madam Lu at the Lu’s Villa, but she lacked solid evidence. Charging in would likely yield no good outcomes.
She chose to curse Madam Lu again and after her anger diminished by half, she started to realize something. “Second Sister-in-law, don’t you find it odd? Our live broadcast phones were out of control, but those internet trolls attacking us vanished. Eldest Aunt wouldn’t have let us off that easily. Was someone else helping us?”
Qiao Yin shook her head, “I’m not sure either.”
“Could it have been Second Brother helping us? I called him, and even though he didn’t pick up, he must know that Eldest Aunt is trying to harm me. So, he secretly helped me?”
Qiao Yin nodded, “Hmm, that’s possible.”
Just then, Lu Yanxi’s phone rang.
She glanced down and excitedly said, “Second Sister-in-law, it’s Second Brother calling! It must have been him!”
She picked up the call and put it on speaker.
Lingche’s indifferent, deep voice came through. “What’s up?”
“Thank you, Second Brother!”
“For what?”
“For helping me get rid of the rammers!”
There was confusion in Lingche’s voice, “What rammers?”
“The internet trolls in my auction live broadcast tonight. They kept slandering me, saying that I would embezzle the donations, and even forced me to fire Second Sister-in-law. However, they all disappeared later. Didn’t you resolve it?”
“No.”
Lu Yanxi was dazed, and after a while, she turned to Qiao Yin blankly. “If it wasn’t Second Brother, then who was it?”
Being on speaker, Qiao Yin didn’t want Lingche to know she was there too, so she kept quiet, shaking her head to indicate she didn’t know either.
However, despite her silence, Lingche on the other end guessed who Lu Yanxi was talking to.
Having had a long day of troublesome meetings and being physically and mentally exhausted, he initially didn’t want to converse much with Lu Yanxi. Yet knowing that Qiao Yin was listening, his fatigue vanished and he was immediately on alert.
He asked indifferently, “Your broadcasts were fine earlier, right? Did the rammers only appear after Qiao Yin joined your company?”
Lu Yanxi hurriedly responded, “No no, it has nothing to do with Second Sister-in-law!”
“Didn’t you just say that the rammers wanted you to fire Qiao Yin? Since her presence is already impacting your operations, you should fire her!”
