Ch.248 Can we kiss? (3)
“Stop arguing! She’s over! Zhang Zhen deleted all his posts about her. No idea if it has anything to do with Li Murou! Also, a lot of the netizens who went to Swallow Canteen are claiming that they had problems with her food. Yesterday, the netizens who went to eat at Swallow Canteetn suddenly vomited when they were sleeping at night…”
…
The netizens all went to Zhang Zhen’s blog and discovered that he had indeed deleted all his posts about Li Murou and posted a new one.
Zhang Zhen V, “I don’t even know what the meaning of gourmet is anymore.”
The topic, #Li Murou’s food phenomenal marketing scheme# was bumped to the top.
Many big names on the net who went to eat at Swallow Canteen were all posting that Li Murou’s food wasn’t good. As for why they said it was delicious in the first place, none of them could give an accurate answer.
That was because even they themselves did not know why they said her food was good back then.
Due to the immense power of the “Gourmet Chef Goddess” system, these people didn’t even feel suspicious about the inconsistency of their experience at all. The fans on the sidelines on the other hand thought the reason they posted that was because they were paid to do so.
When public opinion about Swallow Canteen’s food erupted on the internet, passersby defined this collapse as an unprecedentedly huge marketing scheme, and the most failed one at that.
So many human and material resources were put into it. Even famous directors like Zang Zhen and the Film Emperor were used, but for whatever reason, it led the paid armies to turn against her instead.The public opinion online was a sight to see:
“Hahahahahaha my god, I was wondering how good the food was but it’s just a marketing scheme? Is the world ending? What happened to the Film Emperor’s character setting?”
“I originally wanted to try out their food, but now…Completely uninterested.”
“So I’m curious, how much money did Li Murou send them for them to agree to send out the posts? Those marketing accounts aren’t cheap. There’s also the Film Emperor, the director, an author…Do these things come cheap? Especially Film Emperor Li. He usually paid a lot of attention into maintaining his persona, but this time did he get hit on the head or something? Can’t believe he accepted such a low advertising job.”
“I knew Li Murou was buying reviews. God, now her paid army is biting back. So awkward hahahahahaha.”
“Film Emperor Li should be feeling even more awkward right now, shouldn’t he? Li Murou’s image of hungry chef god collapsed and he took on such a fucking low job. His persona is completely ruined.”
…
However high Li Murou reached, however low she dropped now. Her blog was filled with voices of dissent. Even Li Xiujie’s blog was filled with people scolding him.The various marketing accounts have started to blast out news of Li Murou relying on paid reviews to become famous, lying to her fans.
But Li Murou was still unaware of what was going on in the net right now. She had just finished cooking for Li XIujie and personally served him a dish of roasted pork with pickled mustard greens.
Before making this dish, she had already inquired about LIn Yueqi and Lu Ting’s movements.
One of them went to the gym while the other went to a company meeting. Under such conditions, the two of them will not be able to see each other, so they couldn’t raise any ambiguity points.
She was haunted by last night’s kiss and still hadn’t managed to adjust her mood till now, so her face looked unpleasant. Li Xiujie seemed to notice that she wasn’t her usual self. Picking up some food with his chopsticks and putting it into his mouth, he asked, “Murou, what’s wrong with you? What’s bothering you?”
With 70% of people being affected by the system, she couldn’t imagine what sort of bloodshed was happening on the net right now. She didn’t dare to look at it, and didn’t even dare to touch her phone.
Time and time again she failed. Now, she was putting all her hopes on Li Xiujie.
Fortunately, Li Xiujie still retained a good impression of her food. Right now at this moment, she was beginning to think that Li Xiujie wasn’t any worse than Lu Ting. Even though his net worth wasn’t as high as Lu Ting, she wouldn’t live a bad life if she married him in the future.
Thinking of this, she sighed. “Nothing. It’s just that I offended Lu Ting and he threatened to ruin my reputation, saying he’ll make it impossible for me to stay in the country. You should know too that Lu Ting has money and power. It’s as easy as lifting his finger if he wants to get rid of me. Right now I’m just…scared. So scared.”
