Since we are both reborn, of course I would choose the rich woman!

Chapter 118: Lv Yao is still vicious enough (6k subscription required!)
Ever since Lu Yao pushed Chen Xueying to the front desk cashier position, he has been waiting for his opponent to hit this target.

After the continuous public opinion offensive in the past few days, Lu Yao thought that his plot had been seen through and that his opponents would not target him anymore.

Until the people sent by Zhu Junyan sent the updates from the front line back to Lu Yao.

The opponent finally couldn't help but went to find Chen Xueying.

This shows that the trap that Lu Yao set from the beginning was effective.

But at that time, Lu Yao actually still hoped that Chen Xueying could be smarter and kinder.

Huasheng Life treats her well, especially the official Weibo account of Huasheng Life has stated in the announcement that there will be subsequent promotion plans for Chen Xueying.

With the means that Lu Yao has acquired after returning from studying abroad, plus the power of Rong Nianqing's family, it will not be difficult to create another top anchor who sells goods at the tens of millions level.

Even though Chen Xueying came out of the car with a suitcase in her hand, Lu Yao still held on to one last glimmer of unrealistic hope.

He hoped that Chen Xueying would be smart enough to let him make a mistake once.

If you put yourself in his shoes, after receiving the box of money, Lu Yao would hand it over to the senior management of Huasheng Life as evidence, which would directly give Huasheng Life great initiative in public opinion.

But Chen Xueying was not smart enough and failed to pass the test. Her life script was turned upside down in a moment of her thought.

Lu Yao rubbed his eyebrows and prepared to start work.

Once Chen Xueying's slanderous essay was published, it quickly attracted widespread attention.

Her Weibo account already had hundreds of thousands of followers, and with the traffic purchased by the behind-the-scenes promoter, the article spread like wildfire in just a few minutes.

The online battlefield, which was already filled with smoke due to the behind-the-scenes mastermind, was once again filled with the sound of gunfire.

Some of Chen Xueying's fans were confused, some were shocked, and some were angry. They left messages in Chen Xueying's comment section:

"It doesn't make sense, right? Lu Yao is a scumbag, but he has no shortage of women."

"Even if he wants to take advantage of her, will his rich sister agree?"

But under such comments, there are always female Weibo accounts that attack with a broad brush: "Aren't all men like this? One man at home always likes to go out and flirt with other women."

"I know a lot of models who make money in nightclubs and then go to clubs to order girls. This kind of person has the lowest self-esteem, so they have to find it somewhere else."

"I've long said that Lu Yao is a dead Phoenix man. This kind of scum should be dragged away and forcibly castrated."

Amid the increasingly fierce momentum of the crusade, many rival internet armies linked Chen Xueying's incident to Huasheng Life.

"Huasheng Life pretends to be innocent on the surface, but it is so dirty and filthy behind the scenes, hiding so many dirty and despicable activities. It's really disgusting."

"No wonder Huasheng Life fired that gigolo so early. Their top management probably knew that the scumbag had committed a crime a long time ago."

"Women's safety! Can the Shangnan authorities please do something about it?"

When public opinion had almost fermented, Lu Yao also reposted Chen Xueying's false accusation essay on his own account: "I remember this Chen Xueying, she is indeed very pretty. After reading the description in the article, I also feel that this is something I did."

"Don't panic, everyone. See if I can find some first-hand information. If there's any gossip, I definitely won't hide it!"

Lu Yao's playful response made Lu Yao's fans feel relieved.

Especially the older guys in the mentally retarded bar, they have a clear mindset and can see through the world, and they can feel how relaxed Lu Yao is in facing this incident.

There must be some twist hidden in this.

Later on the Internet, after being fooled by one "wolf cry" incident after another, netizens learned to wait and see.

But in 2013, the only ones who could be so rational and clear-headed were this group of “retarded” guys.

So the funny guy in the retard forum, Abstract buddy, also left a joking message under Lu Yao’s comment section:

"Oh no! My donkey brother actually has the habit of saving videos!"

"Brother Guan Xi, is that you?"

"Lv Yao, the actual identity is a stand user, the stand is called "Brother Edison's Flash", the ability is to instantly pause all the tremors - smash Varudo! !"

what?
Lu Yao looked at the funny comments in his comment section with a confused look on his face. He himself was not involved in the two-dimensional circle, so he didn't understand anything about stand-ins and "smashing Varudo".

He responded to the incomprehensible comment: "What the hell is this?"

Brother Lezi replied immediately: "Don't worry about it, just shout with me - smash Varudo!!"

Lu Yao’s speechlessness is a bit X6.

In addition to the funny comments from the funny people and abstract guys, many girls also came to Lv Yao’s reposted Weibo and started to bombard him:
"Even at this moment, this man still looks calm and nonchalant. He simply doesn't treat us girls as human beings. I'm so angry!"

"Rationally speaking, I don't know who is right, but Lu Yao's attitude is really disgusting."

"Can you give a scumbag like Lu Yao his own planet? I'm already physiologically unaccustomed to this planet."

Lu Yao didn't take all the online doubts and cyberbullying to heart at all, because by tomorrow, all those criticizing him would be silenced, and they might even delete their posts to embarrass themselves.

Next, Lu Yao began to arrange people to collect information for counterattack.

As for the online uproar.
Let them make noise.

The persona that Lu Yao has established on the Internet is not that of a pure, innocent gigolo, nor is it that of an elite man who dotes on women, but rather that of a complete scumbag.

This kind of personality is not afraid of similar rumors at all.

Of course, Lu Yao also knows that the mastermind behind the rival company wants to use Lu Yao to discredit Huasheng Life, but Lu Yao’s own personality can buy him and Huasheng Life some time to respond.

It would be a more appropriate time to postpone this time to tomorrow morning.

Lu Yao and Zhu Junyan immediately started to get busy, and they kept making various phone calls.

At around midnight, Lu Yao, who was in charge of the MCN company and maintained frequent contact with all parties, suddenly received a video call from Rong Nianqing.

After connecting the video, Lu Yao looked at Rong Nianqing, whose face was red as if she was warming herself by a fire, and wondered, "Where are you? Do you still have the leisure to camp outside by a bonfire?"

Rong Nianqing said nothing and switched the camera of his phone to the rear camera.

Then Huasheng Life Plaza with blazing flames appeared in the video.

Lu Yao: “…”

He took a deep breath and asked, "Are you cooperating with me?"

The timing of this fire was just perfect.

Rong Nianqing switched the camera back on and sighed as he faced the blazing fire: "I didn't start this fire."

Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, then he started thinking quickly.

If the fire was not set by Rong Nianqing, then there are only two possibilities - either the opponent was stupid enough to give Rong Nianqing a helping hand at the most appropriate time; or the opponent has his own "teammates".

The probability of the former situation is too low, no less than a student writing "E=mc" after a series of incorrect reasoning.

Therefore, Lu Yao prefers to have his own "teammates" on the opponent's side.

After Lu Yao finished his brainstorming session, he asked, "How is the damage at Huasheng Life Plaza?"

Rong Nianqing exhaled and said, "The damage from the fire is not too bad, but some people were injured in the process of discovering the fire and putting it out. Two passers-by and several of our security guards were injured. Don't worry, I will do a good job of cleaning up the mess."

Lu Yao believed this. Rong Nianqing was not someone who was reluctant to spend money. She called to align information with Lu Yao and pave the way for what was to come.

Lu Yao thought for a while and said, "Well, you will mainly do on-site repairs tomorrow morning and hold a press conference at Huasheng Life Plaza. I will give you the manuscript tonight."

"I will finish dealing with Chen Xueying's matter tomorrow morning. I will bring people to attend the press conference around 3pm."

Rong Nianqing nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

Lu Yao hung up the phone and looked at Zhu Junyan: "How is the process going on your side?"

Zhu Junyan made an OK gesture: "Done."

Lu Yao stood up and picked up his windbreaker: "Let's go."

……

Late at night, at Chen Xueying's home.

After she posted the slanderous essay at around nine o'clock, she felt very complicated as she watched the public opinion trend on the Internet become increasingly intense.

The uneasiness brought by her uneasy conscience, the guilt brought by her sense of morality, and the fear brought by the unknown changes in the trend made her feel uneasy.

But every time she saw the neatly stacked box of brand new banknotes, she felt relieved and at peace.

There was one million in cash stacked in a box on the coffee table in the living room.

A full one million!
This was just a deposit. After this incident was over, she would get the balance of two million, as well as the high-paying, high-level job they promised.

She didn't want to betray Washington Life, but they gave her too much.

But when Chen Xueying noticed Lu Yao's nonchalant attitude, she suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart, which had gradually gained confidence after being comforted by money.

material?

What first-hand information could he have?
The slanderous essay on Weibo was fabricated by professionals. The location mentioned above was not monitored and the time mentioned above cannot be verified. If you really want to be picky, "her words" are the only "evidence."

And that day in the car, Mr. Mai, who was wearing black-framed glasses, also said that there was no hope of convicting Lu Yao in this matter.

As long as she insists that these things are true and continue to have a negative impact on Washington's life, they win.

In this defamation incident, it is not important whether Lu Yao can be convicted. What is important is that the continued negative public opinion will affect "Huasheng Investment" behind Huasheng Life.

As long as "Huasheng Investment" can't hold on, Huasheng Life will surrender.

Chen Xueying was stunned when she heard this. She had never thought that business war could be played like this. Under the instigation of "Teacher Mai" and the temptation of a whole box of brand new banknotes, Chen Xueying succumbed.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Chen Xueying patted her chest and kept comforting herself. It was the first time she did such a bad thing, and she couldn't control her emotions well.

Just then, there was a knock on her door.

Chen Xueying was startled, and a growing sense of uneasiness surged from the bottom of her heart. She hurriedly hid the cash box, walked to the door, held her breath and asked, "Who is it?"

A formulaic voice sounded outside the door: "Hello, we are the Shangnan police, please open the door."

Chen Xueying's scalp instantly felt numb and her brain went blank in an instant.

Her natural fear of the hat uncles made her subconsciously open the door, and then she saw several hat uncles standing upright at the door, followed by Lv Yao, who looked a little haggard, and Zhu Junyan, who had cold eyes. The hat uncle took out his mobile phone, played a video on it and said, "Is the person in this video you?"

Chen Xueying looked at the video in the hands of the man in the hat blankly. Then she saw herself being stopped by the Maybach, saw someone opening the cash box, and saw herself entering the car and then coming out with the box...

Chen Xueying’s brain exploded!

Why do they have this video?
Why is this video so high definition? It even captures the changes in her facial expressions clearly!

The enormous pressure and strong impact caused Chen Xueying's brain to crash. Lu Yao saw Chen Xueying's head shook after a moment of stunnedness, and the whole person fell down limply.

Fortunately, Uncle Hat was quick-witted and rushed over to support Chen Xueying.

Uncle Hat frowned and said, "Are you okay? Can you hear me? We are now questioning and investigating you on suspicion of spreading rumors to defame others and infringing on their reputation."

After hearing the extremely official words from the uncle in the hat, Chen Xueying's face turned pale and she couldn't bear it anymore and fainted.

Outside the door, Lu Yao, who was standing with Zhu Junyan and the lawyer, was a little amused.

Is your ability to withstand psychological pressure so weak?
Uncle Hat also looked at Zhu Junyan helplessly: "Mr. Zhu, it seems we have to send her to the hospital first."

Zhu Junyan said kindly: "It's okay, we still have time."

At 3:30 in the morning, Lu Yao and Zhu Junyan left the police station accompanied by their lawyers.

Chen Xueying's ability to withstand psychological pressure is very weak, especially after Lu Yao and others produced that video, her psychological defenses were completely broken. In addition, Lu Yao stated that as long as she was willing to testify and help Lu Yao clear his name, he would not pursue her criminal responsibility.

Then Chen Xueying explained all the problems in detail.

In the car leaving the police station, Zhu Junyan said with a smile: "Master, you are still kind to women. You actually let that woman go."

Lu Yao smiled: "The essay she wrote slandered not only me, but also Huasheng Life's inaction. The reputation damage and losses she caused to Huasheng Life are fatal."

Zhu Junyan's face trembled.

Okay, okay, Master, so you are such a person who doesn’t pursue things?
You tell a group of old and young that your big knife can't kill the old and the young, and then when these old and the young just breathe a sigh of relief, you pull out a small knife from your waist, right?

black!
It’s so damn dark!

It is said that my master is poisonous!

But having a teammate like this kind of person gives you a great sense of security!
It is no wonder that Cao Cao promoted Jia Xu and Cheng Yu to higher positions and spent a lot of money to support them even though he never used them. It would be a pity to kill such people, it would be unethical to use them, and it would be annoying to let them go.

Lu Yao asked, "Did Zhou Xuanxuan also come to persuade them?"

Zhu Junyan came back to his senses and said hurriedly: "Yes, she will also attend the press conference in person tomorrow."

Lu Yao let out a long sigh and said, "That's good."

Zhu Junyan asked with concern: "Master, it's still early before the press conference. Can I book a hotel for you and find some professional massage therapists to help you relax?"

He had seen with his own eyes that Lu Yao had been keeping an eye on public opinion in the company for the past few days and had slept no more than four hours a day. Now Lu Yao looked visibly haggard.

But Lu Yao smiled and said, "My appearance is also part of the plan."

How can he win the sympathy of netizens when he appears abroad without looking haggard?
A man who was originally handsome and elegant, a man who could face many challenges from reporters with ease, turned into this horrible state after these remarks.

"What do you think the reaction of those female netizens who only care about appearance will be?"

“How will my fans react?”

Zhu Junyan: “…”

If this wasn't in the car, he would have wanted to kneel down to Lu Yao.

Damn, it's a good thing that all these tricks were not used on me. Looking back, he even wanted to mess with Lu Yao. Damn, when Zhu Junyan thinks about it now, his heart goes cold!
……

On December 29th, a chilly wind was blowing through Shangnan City.

Many pedestrians who got up early to go to work saw that Huasheng Life Plaza, which was very bustling yesterday, was surrounded by warning tape today, and a large number of elderly men and women gathered around Huasheng Life Plaza, whispering to each other.

And within the warning tape is the first floor lobby of the mall that was burned black by a fire.

"What's going on here?"

"Washington Life Fire Protection didn't do a good job and caused a fire?"

Pedestrians in the busy traffic couldn't help but feel puzzled after seeing this scene. When they got to their workplace, made a cup of tea, sat down in front of their computers, took out their phones and started their daily slacking off before work, they all saw the news pushed by the local media on Shangnan's local account:

"Huasheng Life Plaza was set on fire by criminals last night, five people were slightly injured at the scene"

"What the hell?"

People in Shangnan who saw this news all widened their eyes. What was going on?

So they clicked on the news push and browsed it, and then they found out that the arson was committed by a rival business who hired people to set the fire in an attempt to shut down Huasheng Life.

But why!

This is too vicious!
Is this still a society ruled by law?

The people of Shangnan were furious after seeing the news, thinking that the rival businesses were too evil. They left messages on the official accounts and Weibo accounts of various news media, demanding that the arsonists and the masterminds behind the scenes be severely punished.

The news of the "Washington Life Arson Case" spread to the streets and alleys of Shangnan at an extremely fast speed. Many citizens who had a good impression of Washington Life and had actually benefited from it were filled with indignation, and a strong storm of public opinion surged in the streets and alleys of Shangnan.

All major media platforms did not expect that this news would receive so many reposts, comments and attention.

Before the local media in Shangnan could react, they received invitations from Huasheng Life Company.

At 2:30 this afternoon, Huasheng Life Company will hold a live press conference at Huasheng Life Plaza, in front of the burned storefront.

Driven by the huge exposure, media outlets in Shangnan City became excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Without waiting until two o'clock in the afternoon, after receiving the message, the local media in Shangnan who received the invitation set out immediately to grab a good spot at the press conference.

Even those local media that did not receive an invitation have heard the news and are determined not to miss out on this huge traffic.

By one o'clock in the afternoon, quite a lot of people had gathered in Huasheng Life Plaza.

Not only are there local media in Shangnan, but also local citizens of Shangnan. A considerable number of them are employees of Huasheng Life Plaza and their families.

They are the most real beneficiaries of Huasheng Life. They are the ones who least want Huasheng Life to fall, and they are also the ones who hate rival businesses the most.

So, the employees of Huasheng Life Plaza were indignant and called all their relatives to come to Huasheng Life Plaza to cheer for Huasheng Life.

By 1:30 in the afternoon, a crowd of people had gradually gathered in Huasheng Life Plaza, stretching as far as the eye could see.

This scared the Shangnan officials!
Many police cars drove over directly, and later a Coaster also drove over and stopped here, for fear that any trouble might occur here.

Because the boss behind Huasheng Life is very special, the Shangnan officials first found Rong Nianqing, and only after communicating with Rong Nianqing did they gradually feel relieved.

In the cold winter wind of Shangnan, a huge crowd gathered in front of Huasheng Life Plaza. Some of them had solemn faces, some were worried, and the sounds of them whispering to each other were buzzing.

In the eyes of the people in Costelli, this scene was no different from the collapse of the sky, so that the atmosphere in Costelli was particularly solemn.

Costley.

Rong Nianqing, who was wearing a black windbreaker and had a cold face, glanced at his watch and said, "It's almost time. I'll go downstairs and start the press conference."

A middle-aged man wearing glasses stood up and said, "Boss Rong, I'll go down with you."

Rong Nianqing smiled faintly and said, "It's cold outside, will you wait in the car?"

"I can't sit still for even a second in this scene!"

Rong Nianqing smiled and said, "Okay then."

She walked out of the open door of the Coaster and walked through the heavy crowd to the front podium of the press conference.

When Rong Nianqing appeared in the square, many employees of Huasheng Life stood up and shouted excitedly: "Mr. Rong! We support you! No matter what happens, we support you!"

"Those people have no law or justice!"

There was also an old man wearing the uniform of a Huasheng Life cleaner who squeezed through the crowd and grabbed Rong Nianqing's hand and said sadly: "Mr. Rong, please don't be sad, and don't lose heart."

The mood in the square became increasingly excited. The middle-aged man following Rong Nianqing had sweat on his forehead in such a cold day.

Rong Nianqing couldn't move in the crowd, so he had to ask someone to pass the microphone to him.

She stood in the crowd and said, "Everyone, please be patient, please be patient! This matter will definitely have an outcome, and Huasheng Life will definitely not fall!"

"Everyone please stay here quietly. Everything will be fine after today."

With Rong Nianqing's comfort, the people in the square gradually calmed down and made way for Rong Nianqing and the others.

Rong Nianqing brought the senior executives of Huasheng Life and the bigwigs of Shangnan to the podium and sat down, facing the huge crowd below.

After a brief opening, Rong Nianqing handed the microphone to the big shot, who expressed his heartache over what happened to Huasheng Life Plaza and said he would definitely give Huasheng Life Plaza justice.

After a brief speech, Rong Nianqing took the microphone and said: "I am very sad and heartbroken about what happened to Huasheng Life Plaza, but don't worry, this will not bring down Huasheng Life."

"The medical expenses of the employees injured in the arson incident will be fully borne by Huasheng Life, and Huasheng Life will also give them a reward of 500,000 yuan each. For the citizens who bravely performed the heroic act, their medical expenses will also be reimbursed by Huasheng Life, and we will also give them the same bonus reward."

"I believe everyone has seen a lot of negative news about Huasheng Life on the Internet recently. To be honest, I still don't understand why they are targeting us."

"But no matter whether it is online slander or real-life attacks, it will not crush us, and our original intention of Huasheng Life will not change!"

After Rong Nianqing finished speaking with great force, there was thunderous applause in the square that lasted for several minutes.

Rong Nianqing raised her hand to calm the crowd and continued, "Next, I would like to invite a former senior executive who has been fired by Huasheng Life to come on stage and say a few words. Mr. Lu Yao, please come on stage."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall, thin and haggard figure walked out from behind the press conference curtain.

Many netizens who saw Lv Yao's figure through the live broadcast couldn't help but widen their eyes——

"Is this Lu Yao?"

"Why has he become so haggard?"

Wearing a black windbreaker, looking haggard and with bloodshot eyes, Lu Yao came to the stage.

He did not sit down on the podium. Instead, he stood in front of the podium and took the microphone from Rong Nianqing. Then he smiled tiredly at the camera and said calmly:

"Hello everyone, I am Lu Yao."
