Zhao Jing could only pretend to be calm as she looked at the camera, but in reality, she was in complete turmoil.

Xu Tian didn't follow the plan before the broadcast at all. If she wasn't allowed to produce the test report, who would believe her?

Xu Tian sat there without moving an inch, leaving Zhao Jing with no choice but to follow the emotions of the comments.

"As a livestreamer and a public figure, I cannot arbitrarily judge a product without solid evidence."

As soon as he finished speaking, thousands upon thousands of comments flooded the screen.

'The streamer must have been bribed; now he's afraid to tell the truth!'

'No way! You're a streamer I've followed for over three years. If even you can't be fair and impartial, who can I trust?'

'What kind of conscientious streamer is she? I think she's just after money; she's definitely been bribed!'

In an instant, the barrage of comments was filled with insults.

Zhao Jing calmly said, "Please don't misunderstand, the reason I didn't show you the test report is because someone is blocking me. This report will have to wait a few more days."

'This skin-whitening product is definitely problematic; otherwise, why wouldn't they have it tested?'

"I've heard that the medical technology group is backed by powerful financial institutions, so it's perfectly normal for the streamer to be blocked."

'What's wrong with capital? Does capital give us the right to amass wealth at will and ruin our skin?'

'I knew a post that was really popular before would disappear without a trace; it seems like the capital behind it all got involved.'

Just as everyone was speculating that the Meiyi Group was behind it, Zhao Jing's live stream was inexplicably shut down.

Zhao Jing looked stunned, then pointed to the camera.

"I've been banned?"

"I was blocked before I even said anything?"

Xu Tian was not surprised at all. It was precisely because he had guessed that this would happen that he did not ask Zhao Jing to produce the test report in time.

"Now open your private messages and take a look," Xu Tian said calmly.

Zhao Jing suspiciously opened her private messages, which were full of comments from fans. In less than a minute after the broadcast ended, there were already tens of thousands of messages.

'You've been targeted by investors, you need to be careful.'

"Being inexplicably banned—who else could it be but capital manipulation? This proves there must be something wrong with the skin-whitening product. Keep going, streamer! We believe in you!"

……

Immediately afterwards, Xu Tian took out his phone and showed Zhao Jing the trending topics list.

'A popular livestreamer's broadcast was suspended, suspected to be due to behind-the-scenes manipulation by a beauty and medical group.'

Are skin whitening products a boon or a bane to the public?

……

Wait a minute, hundreds of trending searches for skin whitening products suddenly appeared.

Zhao Jing stared at Xu Tian in disbelief.

"You knew it all along!"

Xu Tian smiled and nodded, "Lin Wan'er is no pushover. Do you really think she's been sitting idly by all these days?"

Zhao Jing then asked, "What should I do now? My live stream has been banned!"

"How many days were you locked down?" Xu Tian asked back.

"Three days."

Xu Tian then laughed, "Three days, let's see if Zhao Pengfei can manage your daughter in these three days..."

Zhao Jing didn't understand Xu Tian's meaning at this moment. After all, her live broadcast had nothing to do with the Xu Group, so what did it have to do with Zhao Pengfei?

Meiyi Group.

Lin Wan'er sat in the office with a furious expression.

The large screen in front of us was still displaying Zhao Jing's live stream content, which, although it had been banned, had already aroused public dissatisfaction.

Xiao Qi was completely baffled by what she saw.

"Boss, what's the Zhao family up to? Weren't they making a huge fuss about wanting to cooperate with us?"

"Why did they turn things around like this?"

Lin Wan'er tapped the table lightly. The Zhao Group could be used as a means to suppress the Xu Group, but since there was internal conflict, someone had to give her an explanation.

Thinking of this, Lin Wan'er parted her lips slightly, "Where is Zhao Pengfei?"

Xiao Qi said seriously, "He's a useless piece of trash. He can't even handle the company he's been working with for years, yet he still wants to see you. I've already turned him down."

Lin Wan'er raised her eyes, and with just one glance, Xiao Qi lowered her head guiltily.

"I'm sorry, boss, I shouldn't have made the decision for you without permission."

Lin Wan'er said expressionlessly, "Didn't he want to see me? Tell him to get to me right now."

Xiao Qi didn't dare to delay any longer and quickly went down to take care of it.

A short while later, Zhao Pengfei met Lin Wan'er with a big smile on his face.

When Zhao Pengfei received the notification from the Meiyi Group, he could hardly believe his ears.

He originally thought that Lin Wan'er had already given up on signing a contract with the Zhao family since she couldn't get support from the other three partner companies.

Unexpectedly, a glimmer of hope appeared after a period of despair; it seems his sincerity had already moved Lin Wan'er.

"Mr. Lin, why are you in such a hurry to see me? Is it to discuss the signing of a contract?"

"Rest assured, once the contract is signed, the Zhao Group will be your most loyal partner!"

Lin Wan'er's face darkened, her eyes piercing Zhao Pengfei like knives.

"Mr. Zhao, what is your explanation for your daughter Zhao Jing's live stream defaming our company's products?"

Her voice was low, yet it carried an undeniable authority.

Zhao Pengfei's smile froze instantly, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he stammered,

"Mr. Lin, this must be a misunderstanding. My daughter is young and naive, and she was taken advantage of..."

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Lin Wan'er, only to see her brows furrowed and her gaze piercing, instantly freezing the atmosphere in the entire office.

Lin Wan'er gestured to Xiao Qi to turn on the projection screen, which prominently displayed Zhao Jing's face.

The comments below were all saying how bad the product was, and some even went so far as to bring up capitalist theories.

Is this still a misunderstanding?

"Or is it that you simply can't discipline your daughter?"

"If you can't even discipline your own children, how can my MeiYi Group cooperate with you?"

Lin Wan'er's three consecutive questions left Zhao Pengfei speechless.

In the past, he could have used his father's name to force Zhao Jing to do things, but now the two sides are at loggerheads, and he can't do anything about it.

Seeing his hesitation, Lin Wan'er's lips curled into a cold smile.

"If the Xu Group disdains to cooperate with me, I can easily find someone else. I've heard that the Gu family, which has been cooperating with your Zhao family for many years, has a very good foundation and great potential..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Pengfei became anxious.

"No, no, Mr. Lin, this is a misunderstanding. I will immediately stop my daughter's broadcast. It will absolutely not affect the overall operation of the Meiyi Group."

Lin Wan'er snorted coldly, "Three days. I'll only give you three days to resolve your family matters before we talk about cooperation."

"No problem, three days is definitely enough. I will make sure you are satisfied!"

With that, Zhao Pengfei had Xiao Qi lead him out of the office.

Zhao Pengfei wiped the sweat from his hands. Facing Lin Wan'er was even more thrilling than facing Chu Lan.

Although Lin Wan'er's every smile and gesture was polite, he still felt a chill run down his spine.

Thinking of this, Zhao Pengfei looked at Xiao Qi ingratiatingly, "How many years have you been by President Lin's side?"

Xiao Qi said coldly, "Why are you asking these questions?"

Taking advantage of the moment when no one was around, Zhao Pengfei hurriedly pulled a bank card out of his pocket.

"There is 200,000 here. Please do me a favor and let me know immediately if anything happens so I can respond accordingly."

Xiao Qi looked at him, hesitated for a moment before taking the bank card, and then Zhao Pengfei left satisfied.

Money is more powerful than people. As long as I bribe the people around Lin Wan'er, I will know exactly what she is up to.

After Xiaoqi went up, she placed the bank card she had just received and hadn't even warmed up in front of Lin Wan'er.
