Chapter 1171 We can't aim in dark.
The next day as promised, Li Xue wasn't late to reach the palace. Greeting the butler, she waited for the queen to arrive while checking through the trends going on the internet. Although Lin Xinyi has forbade her from visiting social platforms, she didn't mind going there to check the things now and then.
She knew what made Li Xinyi decide for her, but she wasn't a weak one to not take so harsh comnts that were coming out of misunderstanding. Furthermore, what wrong could go checking things on social platforms, it was not like she was using her personal account for it. She was going through it with her alt account so it doesn't matter as far as she doesn't take it to her heart.
While scrolling through the news feed, she realized she wasn't wrong to guess the things last night. The top three positions on social dia searches were occupied all by her and LS costic which only ant one thing and that it was the consequence of so rivalry. Soone has definitely pulled so string behind to keep the thing on the news otherwise just a re common girl would never be able to garner such a response as a whole.
Li Xue realized things stronger and didn't delay in making a call to Lin Xinyi first. The first few rings went to waste, but the call didn't die down since before it could end, it was received.
"Ah, Xue, you have called? Sorry, I wasn't able to pick it up at the start since I was busy with so things. Anyway, you have called; is there sothing that you wanted to ask?" Since the legal notice ca in the na of Li Xue, this was the first ti Lin Xinyi was talking to her. So, she thought that the girl may have called her to ask sothing about the case.
Li Xue's lips softly tuned up on the corners as in a very relaxed tone, she said, "It's okay, Sister Xinyi. I know you must be busy. Sorry for calling you like this but the thing that happened regarding … I can't sit back idly while seeing you all getting anxious with it."
"Xue, that's not your fault, to begin with. Give so ti I will handle it for you." Feeling the self-bla in the tone of the girl, Lin Xinyi interrupted. Since the issue happened, she had not slept even for a while. Continuously, checking things, she has even reached out to the victim, thinking that a talk with her would solve things. But things are getting delayed unusually, giving them no way to escape.
"Sister Xinyi, I know you must be doing your best to help out and I am also sure that with you around it would be an easy task. But I was still not able to sit idly, so I researched so things yesterday. Both on that girl, LS costics and their competitors."
Li Xue spoke, asuring her words and taking the right pause to hear Lin Xinyi react on the other side.
"You did?" The manager asked and Li Xue humd.
"Yes, I wasn't able to hold myself. I felt sothing fishy in it there so I checked and I wasn't wrong. The things indeed are fishy if looked properly." Li Xue put forth her understanding and her choice of words for so reason confused Lin Xinyi
"Fishy?" She asked and humming again, Li Xue took an initiative to explain.
"Yes, I feel like things are frad. Sister Xinyi, you, yourself have inspected everything in LS costics before letting join them. There is no way you would have failed to notice if they were wrong. I have checked their websites online and everything is very transparent. Be it the detailed usage of the things or their source of production, they have kept nothing hidden."
"Furthermore, I have also checked the victim's face. She looked like she had got her face ruined by certain specific chemicals that are again impossible in the products of LS as they encourage cruelty-free products which are very much natural. There could be no way they might have used such harsh chemicals in their products."
Li Xue explained and Lin Xinyi heard her every word very seriously before speaking the things she understood from her words. "So, you an to say, the whole thing is plotted by soone?"
"Umm maybe, Sister Xinyi. Also, another thing that supports my thoughts is the social dia trend. Gathering people in the bunch of crowds is one thing while keeping occupied the first three positions on the internet trending topic is the other thing. I don't think with just a common girl in the picture, this one topic would be capable enough to garner such attention until there is soone pulling strings for her behind the corner."
Li Xue said and her words like that made sense to Lin Xinyi. She thought for a while before saying, "Now you say that Xue, I can't reason it differently. Things are gesturing in one direction. But do you suspect anyone behind it?" She asked and Li Xue humd in nonchalance, shrugging her shoulder off slightly.
"Umm … Not sure. But other than LS's competitors, I don't feel like there could be anyone else. After all, it's their brand that's getting tarnished."
Lin Xinyi thought for a while. Although she didn't deny it, she wasn't in complete favor of it as well. "Ahh, that could be one case but we can't forget that in the middle of all this both than LS, it's you who is suffering. I feel that might be those competitors won't be involved. After all, why would they corner you specifically." She said and at her words, Li Xue's brows tugged in a frown.
"Targeting ?"
Lin Xinyi humd. "Yes. I feel like they are targeting you since it's in your na that the accusation is filed. They say that for the monetary profit, you have purposefully endorsed a wrong product that has ruined a girl's face. You have got the case of misleading youngsters and that's serious; serious to an extent that it could shut your career if not dealt properly within ti."
She said and Li Xue was slightly taken aback. Although she knew the things, she had failed to see them from this angle. But now that she was hearing, she couldn't help but ask with seriousness, "Sister Xinyi, although I believe you, may I ask you how are we dealing with this? I an to say are we going to see the person at court?"
"Can't be sure of it at this ti, dear. I have been trying to reach out to the girl who has filed the case, but for so reason, she seed to be avoiding the eting. But don't worry, we are still trying. We will see how things would turn out after we et her. If she has plotted a lie then we will make her pay for it."
Lin Xinyi said and pausing for a mont, Li Xue asked, "Do you also feel that soone is plotting against , Sister Xinyi?"
"I wasn't thinking that way before, dear. But now that you have pointed over so things, I feel like it. But let's see. We can't aim in dark."
Li Xue humd. To which, Lin Xinyi added to say, "Oh yeah, I almost forgot to say. Later in the evening, visit the company. LS costics wants to have a word with you. So, you would need to be present there."
"Mhm. I will be there." Humming, Li Xue agreed, but her thoughts were still occupied thinking about the things when a voice interrupted from behind to ask.
"Xiao Xue, is everything alright?"
