137: Chapter 137 Can I indulge them? Next, it's my turn to debate with the scholars!

The executives of other milk tea companies in Flower City were also all smiles.

They took out their phones and were frantically liking, commenting, and stirring up trouble under the videos.

"The tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. The waves are high... but you can't be this Wild!"

"Selling it so cheap makes it look like we're the ones making dirty money!"

"Extreme joy turns to sorrow!"

"Heh... the rest of our milk tea brands didn't even need to discuss it; we naturally united against you."

"Why?"

"Because you're an outlier! You've incurred public wrath!"

"Everyone else is playing the consumption upgrade game, so why are you playing at a downgrade?"

...

Inside various marketing companies across the country.

"Dudu Tea has a scandal!"

"So soon? Someone must be targeting them!"

"I don't know why, but I'm feeling a bit uneasy."

"Yeah! Insects and expired products aren't that big of a deal, right? Who hasn't bought expired food before?"

"What I mean is... I feel like Qin Xun can still turn this around."

"Uh... it's possible!"

"Then is the boss going to scold us for being worse than a single hair of his again?"

"I'm starting my annual leave tomorrow to hide out."

...

Shanghai.

Xia Shujie rarely browsed Douyin, but he had just seen the video of Xia Ning personally making milk tea for Qin Xun, smiling so sweetly.

He felt a bit uncomfortable, so he searched "Dudu Tea" on Douyin.

He saw the full version posted by Mi Xier.

He increasingly felt that Qin Xun was a dangerous person; if he really used some tricks on his daughter, he feared Xia Ning wouldn't be able to withstand it.

After finishing it, he swiped to the next video.

To his surprise, it was a scandal about Dudu Tea.

[Insect found in Dudu Tea milk tea]

[Dudu Tea ingredients expired]

Xia Shujie smiled.

"As expected, nothing in this world goes that smoothly. When you want to climb up and make a fortune, ten thousand hands will try to pull you down."

...

Flower City.

Inside a hotel suite.

An Ke watched Qin Xun quietly, seeing his serious expression.

"Are we really going to invest 50,000 yuan into each of those two Dudu Tea scandal videos?"

Qin Xun took out his phone, opened Douyin to search, and found that both videos already had over 40,000 likes.

He gave a small laugh.

"Forget it then!"

"It seems the other milk tea companies are truly livid; they've spent quite a bit of money to boost the traffic for these two videos."

"It's spreading fast enough on its own!"

Qin Xun glanced at Xia Ning and An Ke and began to tell a story.

"In my hometown, there's a shop that sells Large Intestine Noodles, and they taste great."

He paused, a trace of pain flashing across his face.

"I have a friend who went to treat himself after his final exams, only to find a small lump of pig poop inside a piece of fatty intestine."

He looked at Xia Ning, then at An Ke.

"Hearing this, are you two angry?"

Xia Ning and An Ke exchanged a glance, then looked at Qin Xun and shook their heads slightly.

Qin Xun smiled.

"See?"

"Human joys and sorrows are not shared; in truth, not many people are willing to care about others' business. Look, someone almost ate poop."

"But you don't feel it personally, and you're not angry."

Suddenly.

Xia Ning asked, "Um... is that 'friend' you?"

Qin Xun: "..."

He realized he didn't like women who were too smart.

An Ke was startled, then looked at Qin Xun with a serious face.

"I'm a little angry now."

Hearing this, Xia Ning quickly turned to look at An Ke, narrowing her eyes slightly in admiration.

This Little Green Tea was great at seizing every opportunity; she really had a knack for making men happy.

Qin Xun didn't notice the hidden conflict between the two women and continued.

"I'm sharing my... friend's story because I want to tell you something."

"Actually, the business with the insect and the expired products isn't really a big deal."

"Do you two really think the general public cares if someone else drank an insect or bought an expired product?"

"They say if you buy an expired product, you get triple the price in compensation, and anything less than 1,000 is rounded up to 1,000. But in reality, besides Professional Fraud Fighters..."

"Who would really go all out for that 1,000 yuan?"

He smiled.

"The general public is actually more tolerant than we imagine."

As he spoke, he turned his phone around to show them.

"Look, there are so many comments under these two scandal videos now, all cursing Dudu Tea, but how many of these comments have replies under them?"

"This shows that it's just the Water Army entertaining themselves right now; those words haven't truly resonated with people."

"People don't care at all."

"This negative public opinion has a limited impact on Dudu Tea."

An Ke reached out her finger and swiped, finding that it was indeed as Qin Xun said.

There were hardly any replies to those comments.

She breathed a small sigh of relief and looked up at Qin Xun.

"Then we just leave it alone?"

Qin Xun shook his head and cracked his neck, a confident smile appearing on his face.

"Since the other milk tea brands have messed with us, should I just humor them?"

"It's time for my performance!"

An Ke's eyes lit up.

Xia Ning also watched Qin Xun quietly.

But then she saw Qin Xun's body spring up and flop onto the sofa, resting his head on the armrest as he lay down comfortably.

"Mmm~ this position is comfortable."

"Perfect for me to Debate the Scholars!"

Xia Ning: "????"

She frowned.

An Ke's expression looked a bit uneasy.

"President Qin, are you going to fight thousands of Water Army commenters all by yourself?"

Qin Xun waved his hand.

"I'm only responsible for throwing out a brick to attract jade."

"While Dudu Tea is currently at the height of its popularity and has already accumulated a following in Flower City, I'll incite their emotions."

"Let these Organic Fans go and crush that Water Army."

He looked at An Ke.

"I'm going to go comment in the comment section now. You find some Water Army to give me likes so my comment gets pinned to the top."

An Ke nodded.

"Understood!"

She walked to the side, made a phone call, and contacted a Water Army company.

She walked back a moment later.

"President Qin, is your comment ready?"

Qin Xun, lying on the sofa, closed the novel app on his phone with an embarrassed smile on his face.

"Not yet."

An Ke: "..."

Qin Xun: "I'm starting right now!"

He activated Overclocking Mode and typed frantically; lying on the sofa, his whole body began to shake.

Xia Ning and An Ke looked at the trembling Qin Xun on the sofa, and some strange images came to mind.

They exchanged a look, saw the thoughts in each other's eyes, and both breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it wasn't just that they were too dirty-minded.

It was that Qin Xun was too... Wild.

Any normal person would think that way.

A short while later.

Qin Xun took out his phone and turned it around to show An Ke.

"I've written one. Have the Water Army go like it and push me to the top!"

An Ke took a look, her expression turning strange as she looked back at Qin Xun with some doubt.

"Are you really going to post this?"
