On social media, Madam Huo being hit by bird droppings became a hot topic among netizens. By the time Huo Li was aware of the incident, the message had already fermented online, and it was impossible to retract.
"President Huo, what do we do now?" the assistant asked cautiously on the other end of the phone.
As Huo Li’s Special Assistant, he was one of those who knew how busy Huo Li had been lately.
Ever since Jiang Ning had cleared her name on that live broadcast, Huo Corporation had begun to face boycotts from netizens.
The Huo Corporation had only recently steadied its footing after facing a storm of criticism, and any small hiccup could potentially bring irreparable danger to the company.
Huo Li opened his browser to search for news online.
Under the incandescent light, the man sitting in his office looked handsome and stern, "Contact the public relations department, and get them to quickly suppress the heat on this matter."
Jiang Ning’s previous words to Huo Li had been nothing more than an excuse. After dropping off Qi Xingzhou at home, she drove back to her own residential complex.
By the time she saw the news about Madam Huo being hit by bird droppings on her phone, the incident’s popularity had almost disappeared online.
In various social networking apps, besides Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou’s live broadcast in the hospital’s maternity and child health care facility ranking high on the list, the second and third spots were occupied by sudden revelations in the entertainment industry:
#He Xinhai blackmailed by ex-girlfriend, has reported to police
#Le Zhengling diagnosed with brain cancer
[Oh my god! What’s happening today?! Why are there so many things happening all at once?]
[Ahhh, Haihai is being blackmailed! It’s right to call the police, I hope the officers catch the person extorting Haihai quickly.]
[I remember he’s like a pop idol, aren’t idols not allowed to date? He even has an ex-girlfriend?]
[Goodness, I looked at the suspected exposé of He Xinhai’s girlfriend, a breakup fee of five million and two apartments?! This girl really is somewhat insatiable.]
[Just last week, I saw Chu Dandan post an intimate photo with her husband on Weibo, and last month, on her birthday, she showed off a pink diamond from her husband worth tens of millions... And now she’s run off abroad to secretly honeymoon with a young boyfriend? Does she have any respect for her husband and daughter at all? I’m speechless.]
[Le Zhengling has brain cancer???? Eh, I feel for this young girl, I even follow her on TikTok, I hope she can pull through soon.]
[So heartbroken for Lingling. She lost her father when she was young, her mother remarried, and she grew up with her elderly grandparents, with two younger siblings to take care of. Just when she was able to make some money by making videos, she encountered this. It seems misfortune really picks on the most vulnerable, the rope always breaks at its thinnest part.]
The netizens were abuzz with discussions, and their attention gradually shifted from Madam Huo being hit by bird droppings to other hot topics.
Seeing these trending searches, Jiang Ning had a vague feeling that something was off.
After taking a bath, Jiang Ning sat on the sofa and received a message from Li Zhichun.
Li Zhichun said that Ji Pengjun and his three accomplices had gone to the police station that afternoon and provided a lot of evidence they had collected over the years. They also reported another irregularly operating hospital, and now the police had secretly contacted the local authorities, preparing to carry out an arrest operation.
Li Zhichun continued to send messages to thank Jiang Ning. If it weren’t for Jiang Ning, Ji Pengjun and the others might not have gone to the police station so soon.
