Chapter 99: If Only They Were a Little Smarter

The next day, Lin Sui didn't wake up until noon.

After eating lunch, she slumped in her chair and pondered the meaning of life.

A new message arrived on her phone; she picked it up and took a casual look, and it was actually Uncle Yun Zhongke, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.

Yun Zhongke (Voice Message): "Little sister, I want to ask you, those Crystal Bracelets and Peach Blossom Ornaments you sell, you haven't changed your source of goods, have you?"

Lin Sui: "No, why are you asking this all of a sudden, Uncle?"

Yun Zhongke (Voice Message): "Oh, I don't know which disaster-bringing fool bought a fake and insists it's from our Company. That kind of crystal product was tested and found to have radiation, and they're saying it's bad for their health and want our Company to pay up."

Yun Zhongke (Voice Message): "We had tested your goods before, and there were no problems. But those new ones you had someone sell haven't been tested, so I'm asking."

Yun Zhongke (Voice Message): "This is what I should do as the boss, don't overthink it. I still really trust you, so if someone uses this to smear you, don't panic."

This batch of goods bore their Company's brand, and if a problem arose, it was his Company's reputation that would be lost.

That was why Yun Zhongke was being cautious.

Upon learning that the source of the goods hadn't changed, he felt much more at ease.

But this kind of smear tactic, where the truth could be distinguished at a glance, looked like it was targeted.

Since it bore their Company's name, this matter was likely aimed at their Company.

Yun Zhongke had an idea of what was going on.

Lin Sui immediately thought of the many Live Streaming Rooms selling fake and shoddy products she had scrolled past yesterday.

She had been too slow in reporting them.

There were so many she had scrolled past, and there were likely even more she hadn't seen.

Lin Sui sent a message to Yun Zhongke: "I won't be selling these kinds of crystal products anymore in the future."

It was already a bit dubious, and since normal crystals are easily detected for radiation and such, it was better not to sell them for the time being.

Yun Zhongke (Voice Message): "Don't panic, I don't mean to blame you. I'm just reminding you, in case someone comes to your Live Streaming Room to curse you because of this, be mentally prepared."

Lin Sui: "I understand."

She thought, surely no one would have the nerve to come and loiter in front of the original seller after buying a fake, right?

…

Then she was dead wrong.

When Lin Sui was doing her Live Streaming tonight, she had just placed a sign on top of her head that read: 【Any Live Streamer selling goods in my or Suyu's name is selling fakes! Fakes may be cheap, but you bear the consequences if something goes wrong!】

A few people appeared out of nowhere in the Live Streaming Room and kept spamming the screen.

"Black-hearted Live Streamer! Refund!"

"My daughter bought a bracelet in your Live Streaming Room and has been vomiting and having diarrhea since she got home and wore it! I don't know what kind of rotten stones you picked up, you harmful thing!"

Lin Sui: "……?"

Is this a case of "be careful what you wish for"?

Someone actually dared to come over?

Lin Sui patiently asked: "Which day did your daughter buy it?"

"Just the day before yesterday!"

Lin Sui: "I didn't sell any bracelets the day before yesterday."

Someone else chimed in: "It was bought in that Live Streaming Room called Suyu!"

Lin Sui: "Send the order number over, let me see."

The other party was silent for a moment, then said: "I remembered wrong, it was bought in someone else's Live Streaming Room."

Lin Sui knew they would say that; she took out a finger-sized pointer shaped like a hand giving the middle finger from somewhere and tapped the sign on her head.

"Can you all read?"

"……"

"I don't care! Anyway, they sold it in your name, so you have to give an explanation!"

First, arrogant questioning, and after being exposed, they started acting like hooligans.

Such a classic combination of tactics.

Lin Sui said: "You're right, I do need to give an explanation. How about this, tell me which Live Streaming Room you bought it from, and I'll sue them for infringing on my reputation. How about I give you the money won from the lawsuit?"

"……"

Suddenly, no one spoke for a moment.

Lin Sui pressed: "Huh? Speak up? Can you do that?"

LV38 Feng Liu: "This kind of moronic tactic strangely reminds me of an old acquaintance."

He didn't even say who, but Lin Sui was already pointing three middle fingers at the camera, including the one from the pointer.

She smiled slightly and said crudely: "Wu Hao, I f***ing know it's you."

It was indeed too moronic.

It was obvious at a glance who was behind it.

Wu Hao, who was hiding outside Lin Sui's Live Streaming Room watching her: "?"

Damn!

How could she discover him even like this?

Where exactly did he show his tail?

He couldn't see what was being said in Lin Sui's Live Streaming Room, but that last sentence from Lin Sui was definitely cursing him!

A bunch of losers!

Recently, watching Lin Sui win her lawsuits, not only did she open a Company, but she also recruited Live Streamers and started selling goods; her business was booming.

He was furious, but he never forgot his original intention to smear Lin Sui.

Selling goods is the easiest thing to get smeared over; you just need to buy them and say a few words about the quality being poor.

It's a pity I couldn't snatch any, and the price is ridiculously expensive.

He has no idea what those people in Lin Sui's Live Streaming Room are thinking.

He finally managed to find a few internet trolls, and they actually exposed him in an instant!

"President..."

Wu Hao's secretary suddenly knocked on the door and walked in from outside the office.

Wu Hao immediately put down his phone, straightened his clothes, and said expressionlessly, "What is it?"

The secretary said tremblingly, "The head of the Yun Group wants to have a phone call with you..."

Wu Hao: "?"

When did he offend the Yun Group?

Just then, Lin Sui's voice came from the phone on the desk in the Live Streaming Room, "Running out to smear my products without even checking which Company is behind me—go tell my Uncle Yun about it!"

Wu Hao: "!"

She has the Yun Clan behind her?!

ˉ

Lin Sui just loves this feeling of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade and borrowing the tiger's might to intimidate others.

How could one word like "refreshing" possibly describe it?

LV47 Lin Dan Da: "Is that for real? Is that old geezer in the Live Streaming Room?"

Lin Dan Da asked suspiciously.

Lin Sui told the truth, "I don't know, but he should be able to see it."

LV47 Lin Dan Da: "How are you sure it was him who hired those people?"

LV38 Feng Liu: "The methods are too moronic; anyone with a bit of intelligence wouldn't do something like this."

He has chatted with Wu Hao, and he will never forget those brain-atrophied operations of his for the rest of his life.

LV47 Lin Dan Da: "..."

He always feels like there is something he doesn't know.

LV1 Yun Li: "Don't worry everyone, my dad is already scolding him; tsk tsk tsk, even harsher than he scolds me."

Lin Sui: "..."

Others haven't heard Yun Zhongke scold Yun Li, but Lin Sui has heard it several times on WeChat.

People from the Southwest are really something when it comes to scolding others...

Lin Sui laughed out loud, "Uncle is at an age where he is full of hot-blooded passion!"

LV1 Yun Li: "My mom is also at an age where she loves beauty; she wants to ask, if there is stock of the Mask next time, can you save a few boxes for her?"

"Easy, easy, it's all a small matter."

There is no reason not to grasp this kind of top-tier connection, "Next time there is stock, I will notify Auntie first!"

Tonight, Lin Sui's Live Streaming is still mainly about scouting for Live Streamers.

After a small interlude, she started browsing other people's Live Streaming Rooms again.

There are quite a few people streaming at this hour, but not many who catch Lin Sui's eye.

Until Lin Sui swiped to a Live Streaming Room with a nickname of garbled numbers.

Inside was a sign posted: "Save the traditional craftsman grandpa! Handmade goods won't sell, grandpa is crying" Live Streaming Room.

Lin Sui saw a familiar figure inside.

She clicked in immediately.

LV1 Net Beggar Lin Sui: "My dear bestie, how did you end up like this after leaving me?"

In the Live Streaming Room, Tong Shen was standing there looking listless, and behind her, a grandpa weaving things looked slightly thin under the streetlamp.

It looks quite pitiful.

Tong Shen waited for a long time before someone entered the Live Streaming Room, and when she saw the nickname, she was almost in tears.

"Lin Sui, is that you, Lin Sui!! My dear bestie~"

She held her phone and pretended to cry, "Bestie! I missed you! Are you doing okay in that place? You didn't even take the initiative to call and ask how things are over here~"

LV1 Net Beggar Lin Sui: "Your singing is quite terrible."

Tong Shen: "..."

Ever since Lin Sui left, she finally understood what it meant to feel like a day is like a year.

It truly fits that saying: I could have endured the darkness, if I had never seen the sun.

Yes, the program she is participating in hasn't finished recording yet.

However, this is already the final episode.

Just like the episode when Lin Sui came over in the middle, once the agricultural assistance ends, this lousy program will be completely over.

Thinking back to how she once disdained Lin Sui's dirty tricks for winning, it wasn't until Lin Sui left that she realized how refreshing it was to just lie back and win the whole way.

Although Lin Sui did recommend a friend to come over and fill in for a day later on.

But that friend was a man, and there was never that "tacit understanding" she had with Lin Sui!

Lin Sui asked on the public screen: "How many of these are you trying to sell?"

Tong Shen's eyes were filled with tears, "Fifty! My dear bestie~"

The Live Streaming Room is selling bamboo back baskets, 88 each, purely handmade by the grandpa.

He is still weaving them in the background.

This old man looks like a real old man, not the kind Lin Sui pretended to be last time.

The production team has really lost their humanity, bringing out a real old man to sell misery.

LV35 Zhen: "Does the Live Streamer need us to rush it?"

LV18 Desperate Villager: "The Live Streamer's sales-boosting fans are alive again! This kind of thing is exactly what a villager like me needs!"

Lin Sui raised her eyebrows slightly, "No rush, let's train her first."

LV31 Passerby A: "Again?"

The last one to be trained was the one next door, TT.

Lin Sui laughed: "Since she's already here, and we're going to spend money on her in a moment, shouldn't we at least make her perform a show?"

Lin Sui immediately typed a line of text on the public screen.

LV1 Wang Luo Qi Gai Lin Sui: "Come dance, amuse the brothers and sisters in my Live Streaming Room. If they are happy watching, they'll clear you out in a second."

Tong Shen: "?"

She is a star, a big star!

When did she fall to the point of having to perform like a Live Streamer!

LV1 Wang Luo Qi Gai Lin Sui: "Not willing? Then I'm taking my army and leaving..."

Tong Shen whispered to the camera: "Can you save me some face?"

Lin Sui was a bit confused: "I didn't even ask you to dance an abstract dance, how am I not giving you face? We graduated from the same school, what are you afraid of?"

It's not like she doesn't know how.

Tong Shen hesitated for a moment, looking at the other groups who had already sold quite a bit, while only she hadn't sold a single order here.

She took a deep breath, "Fine! I'll dance for you! After I finish dancing, if you don't buy me out, we're breaking off our friendship when I get back!"

Tong Shen had decided to go all out.

She didn't know what to dance, and there was no accompaniment at all, so she could only call out the beat herself and dance a simple routine.

As she moved, everyone's gaze around her turned toward her, including the main cameraman of the director's team.

Feeling the gazes of those around her landing on her, Tong Shen's face turned bright red.

She still bit the bullet and finished the dance.

After coming back from dancing and looking, only two or three orders were sold!

"What happened to the promise that they would clear it out in a second?"

LV1 Wang Luo Qi Gai Lin Sui: "Don't be anxious, shout one more time: Brothers and sisters, buy one, buy one, just buy one..."

Tong Shen's face fell, "Are you playing with me?"

Lin Sui: "Try it and you'll know."

Tong Shen: "..."

She prepared herself mentally for a long time, took a deep breath, and said with a straight face: "Brothers and sisters, buy one..."

She couldn't see how many viewers were in Lin Sui's Live Streaming Room at all, and could only see that there were only Lin Sui and a few scattered people watching the fun in her own sales Live Streaming Room.

She wasn't sure if Lin Sui was lying to her, but she did it anyway.

As soon as she finished speaking, a group of people flooded into her Live Streaming Room, instantly clearing out all the back baskets in her Little Yellow Cart.

LV18 Desperate Villager: "Leave one for me!!! I didn't grab one!!"

LV35 Another Zhao XX: "Brother, slow hands get nothing."

Tong Shen: "..."

Lin Sui's ability to rally people, she had witnessed it once before, what was she doubting just now?

LV1 Wang Luo Qi Gai Lin Sui: "Tsk tsk, you have no talent for being a Live Streamer at all. In front of people, you can't open your mouth or move your legs."

Lin Sui gave her evaluation afterward.

Tong Shen endured it, "I'm not going to be a Live Streamer!"

Lin Sui struck a nerve: "You're not doing well as a star like this either."

LV38 Feng Liu: "Indeed."

As a partner who had the opportunity to spend a day with Tong Shen, Feng Liu also felt that Tong Shen had problems like this.

LV1 Wang Luo Qi Gai Lin Sui: "I'm off. If you can't make it in the entertainment industry one day, you can come find me. I can train you for a fee."

Tong Shen: "Just go already! You're like a sick person."

She was completely being toyed with.

She immediately turned off the Live Streaming Room.

The speed at which she turned against someone was faster than Lin Sui's.

Lin Sui watched the Live Streaming Room get closed, clicked her tongue, and complained in her own Live Streaming Room: "See that? This is plastic sisterhood! Sisters in the Live Streaming Room, be careful when making friends!"

Everyone: "..."

They only saw that "hitting is affection and scolding is love."

Just after exiting the closed Live Streaming Room, Lin Sui was planning to go to the next one.

Suddenly, a request to connect via microphone appeared in her bottom right corner.

【Twin Flowers invites you to connect via microphone】

Judging by the name, it should be a girl; Lin Sui clicked accept.

She enlarged the screen, and the Live Streamer on the other side appeared on the display.

It was actually a pair of twin sisters.

The two sat together obediently, not only dressed exactly the same, but even the curve of the smiles on their faces was the same.

Lin Sui blinked her eyes.

The two people opposite her waved at her in perfect synchronization, "Hello, Sister Sui, we want to apply to be Live Streamers."

Lin Sui: "..."

This level of synchronization made her suspect for a moment whether it was just one person standing next to a mirror.

But looking closely, one could tell they were indeed two separate people.

Lin Sui took the sign off her head and wiped the sweat from her forehead, "With your situation, why do I feel like you already have a Company?"

To be this in sync, they must have undergone specialized training.

Twin Flower Sisters: "..."
