Watching Orange Bear's hurried departure, Liu Ergou suddenly called out.

"Wait a moment. There's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Orange Bear, who was about to leave, frowned and turned back to look at Liu Ergou.

"I'm sorry, I really do have something urgent. You heard the phone call, so you know I'm not lying. Please don't bother me anymore. Thank you!"

Hearing her words, Liu Ergou simply said, "Things have already gotten to this point. It doesn't seem like going back will solve anything. We have a little idea. How about you hear us out? What if it can help you?"

Liu Ergou's words made Orange Bear's already deep frown tighten even further.

This guy is so annoying. I've already made myself clear, so why is he so shamelessly insisting I stay? Don't tell me he's interested in me?

Orange Bear was shocked by the thought.

My figure and looks aren't bad, but my skin is a different story. It's so bad that even a dog would shake its head in dismay. The thought of this man being interested in me is something I wouldn't even dare to imagine. Besides, his girlfriend is way, way more beautiful than I am!

After a whirl of chaotic thoughts, Orange Bear finally returned to the couch. She decided she would see just what this man named Liu Ergou wanted to say.

When Liu Ergou saw Orange Bear return to the couch, he instantly felt more confident.

Her willingness to come back and talk proves that everything is negotiable. This means my plan might actually work.

With that in mind, Liu Ergou asked, "So, Orange Bear, how do you plan to handle this when you get back? As for your real appearance trending online, it's most likely because of that person who came looking for you today, right? I'm ninety percent sure it was him. No one else would bother taking secret photos of you. Besides, they probably wouldn't even recognize you if they tried!"

It had to be said, Liu Ergou's words packed a punch. Hearing them, Orange Bear rolled her eyes.

This guy's words are so nasty. What does he mean, they wouldn't recognize me even if they wanted to take a secret photo? He might as well just come out and say I'm ugly!

Suppressing the anger that was about to erupt, Orange Bear said, "Never mind how the photos got out. As for how I'll handle it, I'll just do what needs to be done. Terminate the necessary contracts, and whatever else comes up, I'll deal with it. I've also thought about the contract termination fees. I can sell this account for a few million. I've run the numbers, and that should be enough to cover the fees, especially with the savings I've put away over the years. Then I just won't stream anymore!"

Liu Ergou couldn't help but nod as he heard Orange Bear's plan.

This woman really has some guts. She's not like some other influencers. When things get out of control for them, they just try to lie and cover it up. And the result? It always gets much worse.

Thinking this, Liu Ergou said to Orange Bear, "That's a solid plan, but are you really willing to just quit? I don't really understand the business side of being an influencer, but I imagine it wouldn't be a problem for you to earn another ten million or more with this account down the line. Are you really willing to give up all those millions?"

Liu Ergou's words plunged Orange Bear into silence. After a long moment, she raised her head, a miserable smile on her face.

"Sigh... Even if I'm not willing, what can I do? Things have already come to this. Nothing I say can change it! My photo has been uploaded, and even if I get them all deleted, people have already seen it!"

Hearing this, a strange smile appeared on Liu Ergou's face. He then said something that left Orange Bear completely baffled.

"What if we could make that photo online seem fake?"

Liu Ergou's words left Orange Bear utterly puzzled. What does he mean, make the photo seem fake?

As Orange Bear was wondering, Liu Ergou spoke up.

"What I mean is simple. If you really want to turn public opinion around, there's only one way: hold a fan meet-and-greet!"

The moment he said this, the color drained from Orange Bear's face.

This Liu Ergou guy has to be joking. Hold a fan meet-and-greet? That would be a public execution! I'm already public enemy number one. If I hold a meet-and-greet, I'll probably be pelted to death with rotten vegetables and spoiled eggs.

At that thought, Orange Bear couldn't hold it in any longer. She shot to her feet and glared at Liu Ergou.

"What the hell is your problem?" she demanded. "Look at the situation I'm in, and you're still spouting this nonsense? Hold a fan meet-and-greet? If I hold that meet-and-greet, I'll be beaten to death by my own fans! You might as well call it my funeral!"

Looking at the enraged Orange Bear, Liu Ergou's smile only grew wider.

Yes, this is it! The angrier she gets now, the more grateful she'll be to me later. Baozhi Hall will make more money, and the chances of a complete turnaround will be even higher!

Despite Orange Bear's fury, Liu Ergou remained unhurried.

"Calm down, Orange. By the way, I'm calling you Orange, you don't have a problem with that, do you?"

Orange Bear couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You've already started calling me that, so what's the point in asking? And what could I do about it even if I did have a problem?"

Hearing her response, Liu Ergou chuckled and continued, "Orange, I have a skincare product here! It can drastically improve your skin. If you start using it now, in about two days, your skin will be as flawless as my girlfriend's! How about it? Interested in giving it a try?"

Orange Bear finally understood what Liu Ergou was getting at, and she immediately shot him down.

"And here I thought you had something important to say! Turns out you're just a salesman. Forget it. If I actually believed you, I'd be the biggest idiot on the planet! Bye! I can't stay and chat, I really have to go deal with my own problems!"

This time, Orange Bear stood up, turned, and walked away without a hint of hesitation. Her movements were swift and decisive.

Lu Shuangyue, who had been silent the whole time, panicked when she saw this. "Er Gou!"

She yanked hard on Liu Ergou's arm, her face a mask of anxiety.
