Choosing to Bear With It
Everything that happened online made Chen Che no longer sleepy. He hurriedly sent a message to Lin Xi.
A minute later, Lin Xi came downstairs and said with a smile, “What’s the matter? Why are you so flustered?”
Seeing that Lin Xi acted as if nothing had happened, Chen Che frowned and said, “Didn’t you see what happened online?”
“I saw it. You came because of this? I thought it was something big.” Lin Xi smiled.
Lin Xi’s attitude stunned Chen Che again. He thought to himself, Isn’t Lin Xi too gracious?
“That’s not a big deal? They’re maliciously slandering you. I’m not afraid of their words, but I don’t want your life to be affected.”
Lin Xi chuckled. “Chen Che, don’t worry too much. How can something without evidence affect us?”
“We’re very popular now. They’re just using this to gain popularity.”
“As for the comments online, we can’t interfere even if we want to. It’s common for people to follow the rumors.”
Chen Che sighed. “I understand what you’re saying, but I can’t take this lying down. Why should they slander you for no reason? Moreover, they scolded you very badly.”
“How about this? I’ll post a video to criticize them and attract some attention. I’m not afraid of being scolded, as long as they don’t scold you.”
Hearing this, Lin Xi was extremely touched and felt very safe.
At the end of the day, she was the one who dragged Chen Che to participate in the show, making Chen Che’s frugal life public. In just two days, did Chen Che not bear enough criticism?
Therefore, how could she let Chen Che bear all of this?
After a short silence, Lin Xi forced a smile and said, “There’s really no need. If we stand up and defend ourselves now, we will look more suspicious and guilty.”
“Do you remember what I said at the beginning?”
Chen Che nodded. “We don’t want to win an award. We just want to keep a record of our relationship.”
“That’s right.” Lin Xi smiled sweetly. “That’s our original intention. As for what others say, does it matter?”
“Let them do whatever they want on the Internet. As long as we’re happy, that’s enough.”
“Is it really okay to ignore them? Lin Xi, don’t lie to me.” Chen Che did not believe it. freewebno(v)el.com
“Why would I lie to you? Hurry up and go back to sleep. You still have to go to work tomorrow.” As she spoke, Lin Xi took the initiative to give Chen Che a hug. Her pretty face was slightly red, and she looked very lovable.
Seeing this, Chen Che could only say, “Alright, then go upstairs and rest. Good night.”
“Good night.” The moment Lin Xi turned around, her smile was no longer there. It was filled with melancholy.
Although it had just happened, it had already affected her. However, she did not want Chen Che to feel guilty, so she was willing to bear everything.
After waiting for a while, Chen Che also walked towards the self-service cash withdrawal hall. He was not stupid. He knew that although Lin Xi said that she was fine, how could he feel comfortable?
He could not even tolerate it as a man, let alone a woman.
However, Lin Xi was right. Debating now was more like guilt. Moreover, with their current ability, they could not forcefully suppress this matter.
After returning to the entrance of the self-service hall, Chen Che turned around and looked at Lin Xi’s house. The lights were still on. He thought to himself, “I’m sorry. The grievance is only temporary. I’ll definitely give you the best in a year.”
…
At dawn, Chen Che left his residence. Just like yesterday, he picked up scraps while exercising.
He still didn’t sleep well that night. He kept dreaming that Lin Xi was being bullied, but he couldn’t do anything.
This made him even angrier and more guilty.
He wished he could immediately take out a loan and bring Lin Xi to eat, drink, and have fun to slap those haters in the face.
However, his rationality finally defeated his anger. In his opinion, it was not worth it to use debt to fight against the trolls.
Moreover, even if the matter calmed down now, there might be more trouble later.
Therefore, for the sake of a better life, he could not change anything this year. He could only choose to endure!
With yesterday’s experience, Chen Che collected more waste products today and his income doubled. He sold them for a total of $10.
In the eyes of others, it was only $10, but in Chen Che’s eyes, it was a heavy $100,000. He was very happy.
After earning the morning’s extra income, Chen Che went to the public toilet to wash up and went out refreshed.
At this moment, the VJ was in position. As soon as the live-stream started, there was a lot of cursing.
After a while, Lin Xi came over with a sumptuous breakfast.
Just like yesterday, the two of them went to the park for breakfast and chatted and laughed.
Seeing that the two of them did not care, the scolding in the live-stream became even louder. Only a small portion was doing their best to protect them.
Chen Che and Lin Xi had already expected it, but they wouldn’t look. As the saying went, out of sight, out of mind.
After breakfast, a beautiful new day began.
Because Lin Xi hid it very well, Chen Che did not notice that she had something on her mind during the entire process.
In fact, Lin Xi did not sleep the entire night. In just one night, not only was her reputation damaged, but the company was also in a lot of trouble.
When it was almost nine o’clock, Chen Che arrived at the office to clock in. A colleague rushed over and pulled Chen Che to the side.
This person was called Kong Hao. Not only was he about the same age as Chen Che, but he had also joined the company at the same time. Because of this, the two of them had a very good relationship.
Seeing that the cameraman did not follow him, Kong Hao said in a low voice, “Chen Che, are you really cooperating with Lin Xi? How much did she give you?”
Chen Che frowned. “Kong Hao, even you think it’s fake? Don’t you know what kind of person I am?”
Kong Hao scratched his head awkwardly. “I believe that you’re an upright person and won’t lie to the audience, but after listening to the analysis online, it’s not unreasonable.”
“As a strong woman, Lin Xi is a goddess-level figure in Jiangshi City. She’s in a different world from us. It’s a bit far-fetched to say that she likes you for no benefit to her.”
“In my opinion, regardless of whether I give you money or not, this job is not easy to do. If this continues, your reputation will be completely ruined.”
...
Although he knew that Kong Hao meant well, Chen Che’s face still darkened. “My relationship with Lin Xi can withstand the test. There’s no need for others to judge.”
“I can’t control the Internet trolls, but I hope you won’t be like them. If you say such things again, don’t blame me for falling out with you.”
“Alright, alright, alright. I won’t say anymore.” Kong Hao hurriedly nodded. He didn’t want to offend Chen Che because of this.
At the same time, at LI Clothing Design Company.
After the morning meeting, Lin Xi was still sitting in the conference room with a frown.
Not wanting the netizens and Chen Che to know about it, Lin Xi blocked the VJ out with the excuse that it involved company secrets.
“Lin Xi.”
Not long after, a tall woman entered.
Her name was Han Jiarui, and she was Lin Xi’s best friend. She was also one of the shareholders of the company and was mainly in charge of the company’s external cooperation.
Although she was not as good-looking as Lin Xi, her figure was better.
“I just came back from a business trip. Why are you in such a hurry to come over instead of resting at home?” Lin Xi asked.
...
Han Jiarui sighed. “How can I not be anxious after such a big thing happened? Look at this.”
sWith that, Han Jiarui handed a document to Lin Xi.
