Chen Xuan wasn't sure what choice Ling Xiaoxiao would make at the moment.
If she decided to terminate the endorsement relationship, it would be understandable. Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't be blamed for that.
However, it would have a negative impact on New Moon Company, as everyone would pile on when the wall falls.
If Ling Xiaoxiao remained silent and continued as the spokesperson, it would backfire and negatively impact her.
Chen Xuan turned and went to his room, picked up his phone, and decided to call Ling Xiaoxiao to ask her.
It's better to talk openly about some things.
As soon as the call connected, Ling Xiaoxiao spoke first, "Brother Chen, you're calling me about the New Moon Company health product issue, right?"
Chen Xuan gave a dry laugh, "Yes, after all, such a big issue suddenly came up, and it indirectly caused trouble for you."
"Xiaoxiao, I have no other intention with this call. If you choose to terminate the contract, I would understand."
Ling Xiaoxiao chuckled lightly, "Brother Chen, let me ask you this, did this issue really originate with New Moon Company's health products?"
"I can guarantee with my life that there's absolutely no problem with the company's products. Someone is definitely sabotaging us from behind!" Chen Xuan said seriously.
"Hmm, I think so too."
Ling Xiaoxiao replied with a smile, "So, my answer is only one, to continue being the image ambassador for New Moon Company!"
"To stand alongside you and President Lin, until the clouds part and the moon shines!"
Chen Xuan was immediately moved. For Ling Xiaoxiao to say such things in this situation required immense courage.
It also served as a boost of confidence for him and Lin Wanxi!
But the problem is...
Chen Xuan smiled bitterly, "Xiaoxiao, I thank you on behalf of Lin Wanxi, but in doing so, you'll also have to endure great pressure!"
"It's alright, I can handle this pressure and believe that the truth will come to light one day," Ling Xiaoxiao chuckled lightly, "Brother Chen, you don't need to worry about me."
"Since the day you saved me, I've believed in you! As long as you need me, I'll give it my all. Even if I'm shattered, I won't take a step back!"
Upon hearing these words, Chen Xuan felt a mix of emotions inside.
Lin Wanxi was right. Ling Xiaoxiao's actions went beyond gratitude.
It's like indirectly showing her feelings, albeit very subtly.
"Xiaoxiao, your sentiments deeply move me, but I can't bear this burden!"
"If it's still tied to gratitude, your previous willingness to be the company's image spokesperson was already enough."
Chen Xuan said with a helpless smile, "This time you're helping regardless of your own reputation, and I owe you a favor!"
Ling Xiaoxiao sweetly smiled, "If Brother Chen thinks so, then once this matter calms down, you can invite me out for a meal to repay the favor, how about that?"
"That is certainly no problem, but... it's a loss for you." Chen Xuan laughed.
"As long as I don't think it's a loss!" Ling Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly.
The two chatted briefly and then ended the call.
Chen Xuan walked out of his room with a wry smile and headed downstairs.
"Wanxi, I just called Ling Xiaoxiao. She won't terminate her spokesperson role and is willing to join us in getting through this tough time."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanxi breathed a sigh of relief, "We really have to thank Ling Xiaoxiao; her actions are a charitable gesture in our time of need!"
"However, much of the credit here goes to you."
Chen Xuan understood that Lin Wanxi's words had implications, but he pretended to not understand, "Whose credit it is doesn't matter, as long as we work together and weather this storm."
Lin Wanxi glanced at him without saying more, "Let's hope we can get through it smoothly!"
That night, the internet was far from calm, with many netizens discussing the claims that New Moon Company's health products had caused deaths.
All sorts of things were being said!
Many internet trolls took the opportunity to stir up trouble, using their skills to smear New Moon Company recklessly.
Even the pharmaceuticals of New Moon Company were similarly affected.
Sales plummeted!
The company was showing signs of crumbling.
If this issue can't be effectively resolved, New Moon Company might fall in this storm, unable to survive.
The next day, Lin Wanxi arrived at the company and struggled through until the afternoon.
The autopsy results came out, showing no toxic residues in Han Chengye's body, proving that Han Chengye did not die from poisoning.
The inspection results for New Moon Company's health products were also out, with no banned substances found.
The cause of Han Chengye's death remained a mystery.
One thing was clear, Han Chengye died from cardiac arrest, known in medical terms as sudden cardiac death.
As for whether it was related to taking the health product, the forensic experts couldn't give a definitive answer.
Lin Wanxi and New Moon Company couldn't be directly deemed guilty.
But the issue hadn't been effectively resolved.
Han Chengye's family did not accept this and had to resort to judicial processes to sue Lin Wanxi and New Moon Company in court.
What the court would eventually decide was unknown.
However, the situation Lin Wanxi feared most had finally occurred.
If it came down to legal proceedings, it could drag New Moon Company to financial ruin!
"How could this happen?"
Lin Zhiguo was becoming anxious and frustrated, constantly scratching his head, "How exactly did Han Chengye die? Could sudden cardiac death be linked to our health products? It doesn't make sense!"
Lin Wanxi sighed, "But the victim's family is clinging to this point. If they take us to court, there's nothing we can do."
"Once we go down this path, even if we win the case, we'd have lost the business! Not being able to prove whether Han Chengye's death was directly related to our health products is the biggest problem!"
"No one will trust us, nor dare buy our health products in the future!"
The father and daughter were anxious and helpless, as if trapped in a maze with no way out.
Just then, Han Tieshan called.
"Mr. Chen, according to my investigation, Han Chengye and his wife Jiang Mei are of the working class, with average family conditions."
"Also, a few days ago, Han Chengye suddenly felt unwell and went to the hospital for a check-up. I specifically had someone inquire at the hospital, and Han Chengye was diagnosed with liver cancer, at a late stage."
"This is all I've found so far. Do you need further investigation?"
After speaking, Han Tieshan awaited Chen Xuan's response.
