Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After the live ended, Tian Yuan spoke up.

“Pei Xin, this… this is the data from this live. Everything has been sold out.”

“Tian Yuan, why don’t you take off the lipstick?” Pei Xin was a little helpless. It seemed that ever since she put on lipstick, she started stuttering.

However, Tian Yuan immediately covered her mouth. “No, no, this is the first time I’ve used lipstick in my life. I want to keep it until tomorrow!”

Zhou Yu reluctantly stuffed a box into her hands. “Here, PD gave some goodie bags to our employees. I took this one for you. Don’t be silly and take off the makeup, you can put on more tomorrow.”

Fortunately, the live ended successfully, and the staff members were relieved.

Tian Yuan wiped her lipstick and said worriedly, “I saw that Ling Xue’s live has broken the record of a million people. Moreover, there were at least a hundred thousand people who placed orders…”

“How is that possible?” Zhou Yu’s face was filled with disbelief. “Didn’t Manager Ding say that the goods in the warehouse were all given to us? Where did a hundred thousand sets come from?”

Pei Xin looked at today’s live data. Fortunately, there were still many netizens who were not blinded by the low price. Otherwise, she would have suffered a great blow.

“Why are you so listless? Didn’t you say that you’ve sold them all?” When Lu Huai walked in, everyone was still discussing the latest news about Ling Xue.

He didn’t know much about the things these women used, but he had seen the live. Pei Xin’s adaptability was better than he expected.

Seeing Lu Huai walk over, the people around him fell silent.

Pei Xin walked over and took out the data. “Ding Shuang said that she gave us twenty thousand sets of makeup packages and single products. However, Ling Xue’s stream sold more than a hundred thousand sets at a lower price. I think something is up.”

Lu Huai signaled for her to continue with a slight nod. Pei Xin continued, “The profit margin for this stream wasn’t much, but PD is an imported brand. The customs duties and annual publicity fees are very high for this brand. Even so, it’s good publicity for us. Although the price may not even be enough to cover the cost of raw materials needed, the main point of today’s stream was to gain loyal customers. Based on all of this, I suspect that Ling Xue is selling fakes.”

She had thought of this during the live, but she did not point it out without substantial facts. She did not want the netizens to think that she was deliberately framing Ling Xue.

“Ding Shuang won’t have any problems with the numbers. She did say she wanted to expand the domestic market. She will definitely have to work with the Lu Corporation in the future to achieve that.” Lu Huai briefly looked through the data in his hand. “Our products all have import certificates. Don’t worry, 1’11 investigate this matter thoroughly.”

Pei Xin nodded, but she didn’t dare to look at Lu Huai. She didn’t know when she had started to trust this man. When he said not to worry, her heart skipped a beat.

After Ling Xue’s live ended, she didn’t have time to celebrate with Lu Li. There were too many sales today, so she had to get to the factory to prepare the goods.

Ling Xue had thought that it would be good enough if tens of thousands of people placed orders. She did not expect that some people would buy more than ten sets at once. There were also many merchants who placed orders of more than a hundred per person. They were all waiting to stock up and sell these packages at a higher price.

She didn’t care what these people wanted to do after buying her stuff. Just thinking about how much money she would earn from this live made her feel happy.

“How many people were in Pei Xin’s live? Did she manage to sell everything?” She asked her assistant arrogantly.

“How can she compare to you?” The assistant quickly said ingratiatingly. There were only twenty thousand people. She can’t sell more than that.”

“But she still sold them all??” Ling Xue was a little unhappy, but then she thought that if she did this every time, Pei Xin’s live would have to close down sooner or later. Her mood improved again.

“Alright, you need to go and help pack the products too. Also, keep an eye on the factory. Don’t let them say anything that shouldn’t be said.”

Ling Xue thought that her plan was flawless, but on the second day after the live, she received a complaint because the buyer in the same city found out that the goods were fake and even had an allergic reaction to the product.

“Ling Xue, did you not get the selling license from PD? Did we sell fake goods?” Lu Li received the notice and rushed to the hospital.

Ling Xue had already asked her assistant to calm the customer down and said that she would definitely compensate her. Only then did she come to Lu Li for a discussion.

“Lu Li, 1 was too anxious. 1 wanted to salvage your image as soon as possible.” She quickly put on a pitiful look. “My heart ached when you were being scolded by the netizens. 1 couldn’t get the authorization from PD right away, but Pei Xin dod. I didn’t want her to continue slandering you during the live.”

She knew that as long as all of this was pushed onto Pei Xin, it would be fine.. She did it to protect her lover, what was so wrong about that?
