Chapter 188: Off Her Reputation Goes Into the Sh*thole
Throughout the history of the Huafeng Competition, this was the first time a participant’s vote count breached the zero threshold and fell to a negative number.
It was a design flaw overlooked when designing the vote counting system.
The system started to fail after Wu Lingshan’s vote count fell below negative one million. It let out beeping noises to indicate an error in the system as the big screen began to flash.
Meanwhile, the audience looked at each other in dismay.
Suddenly, someone figured out something from the comments on the screen.
“Oh, right! Weibo! I remember seeing a comment saying that Shao Mingyi posted on Weibo! Could the downvotes have something to do with this?”
“I think I saw a comment like this too!”
“Quick, get on Weibo!”
On Weibo, Shao Mingyi had once again tagged #Huafeng Competition# on his post and pushed it into the trending tab.
@Shao Mingyi. “My deepest apologies to all my fans, I’ve let you down for not being able to model for the Huafeng Competition as originally planned and got admitted into the hospital instead. Therefore, I hereby strongly condemn @Wu Lingshan’s act of malicious intent—Wu Lingshan has drugged her opponent’s model with laxatives in order to gain an advantage at getting the grand prize. Can she really live up to her conscience even if she managed to win the grand prize using such unethical means?
Shao Mingyi even attached a photo of him getting an IV drip at the hospital below his post.
His face was scarily pale as he looked extremely tired while lying on the recliner.
How could any of his fans’ fragile hearts possibly take it after seeing what he had to go through?
There were already more than 100,000 comments under Shao Mingyi’s post. Every single one of them were curses directed at Wu Lingshan. These comments were even more creative and a hundred times more exciting to read than the ones on the big screen!
Although Wu Lingshan already had a hunch on how things would turn out, seeing such a scene unfold with her own eyes still gave her a huge blow.
The color on her face instantly disappeared.
Sensing the strange gazes from the surrounding audience, her lips started to tremble as she tried to defend herself, “No, I didn’t do this… It’s Shao Mingyi’s own fault for ingesting something that upset his stomach, so how can he blame it on me? This… this is straight up slandering! Xing Chen must’ve been the one who ordered him to do this!”
Wu Lingshan was quick on her wits, she realized that she still had a chance of retaliating since Shao Mingyi did not have any evidence.
Unfortunately for her, the audience were not stupid, so no one believed her.
“That’s really funny. Why should Xing Chen work with Shao Mingyi to slander you? Her designs are so good that they managed to capture Young Master Mu’s attention. The grand prize had totally been in her bag from the very beginning. So, why is there a need for her to resort to such underhanded methods?”
“That’s right! Besides, just look at Young Master Shao’s current social status, do you even think it’s possible for a rookie designer to order him around?”
“Look, Young Master Shao made another Weibo post mentioning that he had already obtained the backstage’s surveillance footage at that time. He’s prepared to sue you for intentional poisoning!”
Wu Lingshan broke out in cold sweat when she heard that Shao Mingyi was planning to sue her, so she could no longer maintain her calm composure.
A month ago, she barely escaped the law’s judgement for her acts during the incident with the diamond bracelet, and that was all thanks to that idiot, Zuo Xiaoqing for being her scapegoat.
However, how would Wu Lingshan find herself a new scapegoat this time?
What was more, that incident had already made her lose tonnes of fans and she had not been able to clear her name just yet. This time, she even had Shao Mingyi expose her scandalous act to make things worse for her.
With this, her reputation was definitely taking a nose dive down the sh*thole.
How was she still supposed to maintain her public image as a beautiful, rich and kind-hearted lady? How would she still make her way to become an internet celebrity designer?
Wu Lingshan felt her vision went black and she almost fainted.
On the other hand, SL Corporation’s staff had finally managed to repair the vote counting system in time.
Thus, the display on the big screen was restored.
The host hurriedly returned to the stage and bowed to the audience and the cameras as an apology.
“We’re terribly sorry for the company’s lack of preparation that caused the voting system to fail and wasted everyone’s time. As of now, the statistics have all been restored. Therefore, please allow me to announce the list of winners of the Huafeng Competition.”
“First place, designer no. 10, Xing Chen!
“Second place, designer no. 6, Si Tu!
“Third place, designer no. 2, Su Yaping!
“Congratulations to them!”
In the past, the hosts would announce the winners of the Huafeng Competition from the last place as they slowly moved up the list before finally announcing the winner of the grand prize.
However, this time, Wu Lingshan’s ridiculously low vote count was too embarrassing to look at. Moreover, she was the daughter of one of SL Corporation’s shareholders, so the host simply skipped this segment and announced the top three winners of the competition.
A huge round of applause sounded from the audience.
At this moment, Luo Chenxi had already forgotten that she was currently disguised as a man. She covered her mouth in excitement as tears welled up in her eyes.
She had been through so much and gone so far for this competition.
It was such a heartfelt moment for her to finally get her hands on the grand prize!
“Next up, let’s invite the Chief designer of SL Corporation, Chief Sheng Yu and the director of Mu Group, Mr. Mu Yichen on stage to hand the awards to our winners!”
