Even After My Death
Chapter 471 - 379 Jiang Ning: Fake Fan.

Chapter 471: Chapter 379 Jiang Ning: Fake Fan.

[It’s true, and the place where she works is actually the Huo’s headquarters in Capital City, on the very 13th floor where the CEO and the chairman are located, oh.]

Jiang Ning’s background, as well as her relationship with the Huo family, might not be known to the entire internet, but most netizens are certainly familiar with it.

So one could imagine how shocked netizens were when someone quietly let slip the piece of gossip that Jiang Ning had joined Huo Company.

The breaking of this news was like pouring a bowl of water into hot oil, instantly causing a splash.

Countless journalists and media outlets reached out to Huo’s, trying to confirm the truth of the matter.

Of course, what they really wanted was to contact Jiang Ning herself for an interview. However, during the few times Jiang Ning trended on social media recently, they had sent her countless direct messages, hoping to arrange an exclusive interview, yet all messages sent out fell into silence, with no response whatsoever.

It’s unclear whether Jiang Ning simply didn’t have the habit of checking direct messages, or if her message box was so swamped that it buried theirs.

Jiang Ning didn’t publicize her contact information, so apart from direct messaging, there seemed to be no other way to reach her, and people had no choice but to settle for trying to contact Huo’s customer service or employees.

The customer service at Huo’s was completely flabbergasted, facing a workload several times higher than usual.

She immediately called Special Assistant Chen to report the matter.

Special Assistant Chen said, "It’s okay, just tell them the truth."

As the assistant close to Huo Li, Chen Qi had known of his boss’s intentions from the very first day Jiang Ning joined the company, and he was aware that everything happening now was according to his boss’s plan.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that so many of Jiang Ning’s work photos at Huo Company appeared in the comment sections? This was actually all orchestrated by Huo Li well in advance.

With the response from Chen Qi, Huo’s customer service felt empowered. When answering those inquiry calls, they replied with certainty, "Miss Jiang Ning is indeed working with our company right now."

As for other questions like "Didn’t Jiang Ning have a falling out with the Huo Family? Why has she gone back to work at Huo’s? Have they made up?" the customer service would deflect wherever possible: "That’s Miss Jiang Ning’s family matter, I’m not quite sure about that."

Nevertheless, this gave the various media outlets the information they wanted, and they raced to post edited recordings of the phone calls online, confirming the news that Jiang Ning was working at Huo Corporation wasn’t just a rumor.

Now, the onlooking netizens were truly stunned:

[Ah! Why!]

[My god, it’s actually true?]

[What’s up with Jiang Ning? Has she been hexed?! With her current online reputation being so good and so many people supporting her, if she went back to the Huo Family for money, it really wasn’t necessary. Just by doing live stream e-commerce with her huge fan base, she could make as much money as she would from working for Huo Company.]

[Right, Huo’s reputation is already in the gutter, and their downfall has only just begun these past few months. Jiang Ning had already clearly distanced herself from them, why step back into that mess? It’s not worth it.]

[Could she have been swayed by the Huo family Members? After all, they share a blood relation. Maybe they deliberately played up emotions in front of Jiang Ning, pulling at her heartstrings. After all, she was switched at birth, and based on what her classmates revealed, it seems she never had foster parents and grew up rather tough on her own.]

[Hmm, makes sense, you long for what you lacked in childhood. After all, Jiang Ning is only twenty-four or twenty-five, even younger than me.]

[When I was twenty-four or twenty-five, I had to call my parents for the smallest issues, and I’d even cry if I couldn’t solve them myself.]

[No, I disagree; I don’t think Jiang Ning is the type who would compromise for affection due to a craving for maternal love. She is very independent and no matter what happens, her gaze remains determined and fearless.

Even when she was beating up Huo Ziheng on the show, her face only showed irritation and disgust, not sadness. She doesn’t look like someone who can be easily swayed by the Huo family Members.]

[Jiang Ning, why not come to my house instead? We have a great family atmosphere, and we all like you a lot. kiss.jpg]

[Don’t be like that, respect Jiang Ning’s choices. Our speculations are just thoughts in our heads; they don’t represent Jiang Ning. Since she has chosen to return to the Huo Family, she must have her reasons that she can’t let go of. All we can do is support her!]

The netizens never stopped hotly debating the matter.

Jiang Ning wasn’t quick to surf the net and initially wasn’t aware of what was happening, until she opened WeChat and found twenty to thirty unread messages.

Zhang Lang: You’ve returned to the Huo Family? Why the sudden move back? Let me know if you need any help.

Ji Shuang: Jiang Ning, is it tiring at work? I have a baking class this afternoon, and I’ll get the housekeeper to send you some of my homemade cookies~

Apart from the two of them, some other friends who did not frequently stay in touch also sent messages.

Seeing these messages, Jiang Ning had a hunch something was off. She didn’t reply and exited WeChat to open TikTok, where, sure enough, she saw topics related to herself on the trending square.

Huo Li had indeed made his move.

Jiang Ning scrolled through the topic and quickly understood the gist of the matter.

She had been working at Huo’s for several days now, and oddly enough the news didn’t break too early or too late, but on the day when her internet traffic was at its peak. What did that imply?

Jiang Ning didn’t believe in coincidences.

Moreover, in the comments, Jiang Ning saw plenty of leading statements:

[Oh my gosh! Just last month I said I’d never use products from Huo’s again, now wouldn’t I be slapping myself in the face? Since Jiang Ning has returned, we have to let Huo’s realize our strong purchasing power, let the Huo Family Members know that Jiang Ning isn’t easy to bully, she has us backing her up!]

[Absolutely! We must show the Huo Family Members how powerful our spending can be!]

[The Huo Family has been rather well-behaved recently, their company stocks plummeting, I heard Huo’s father and son have been drinking till they vomit blood in their attempts to attract investors. And those twin brothers, still underage, often get isolated at school, it’s quite pitiful. No matter what, they are part of Jiang Ning’s family, and since they’ve received their punishment, let’s just leave the past behind.]

[It’s good to be able to right one’s wrong; after all Jiang Ning and the Huo Family Members are bound by blood. Since Jiang Ning herself has chosen not to hold any grudges, we as fans shouldn’t dwell on it too much either.]

[Hehe, I’m going to place an order from Huo’s right now, no matter what choices Jiang Jiang makes, I support her all the way!]

Jiang Ning: "..."

Her fans wouldn’t be that stupid.
