Chapter 233: Popularity Soars
After listening, Fu Shucheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze toward Lin Yuwei turned cold.
He glanced at his assistant beside him, his eyes narrowing slightly. The assistant immediately nodded, waved his right hand in the air, and several security guards appeared around him.
Upon hearing the instructions, they approached Lin Yuwei, flashing standard smiles, and said, "Madam, please."
"You... I am the daughter of the Lin family! How dare you treat me like this? If my father finds out, you'll be in deep trouble!"
Lin Yuwei roared angrily, her eyes looking like she wanted to devour someone.
The security guards were clearly taken aback. They paused, turned to look at Fu Shucheng, and then, seeing him nod, turned back to Lin Yuwei, politely asking her to leave.
"Damn, she really is the one crying 'stop thief' when she's the one who's been wronged. I never thought the Lin family's daughter was this kind of person."
"Rich people aren't necessarily well-mannered, unlike my sister Xi."
"I just saw that the little girl was so cute, she didn't seem like the kind of person who would do something like this."
"That's right, what a lovely girl, so beautiful, how could she do such a thing, especially since she's the eldest daughter of the Lin family."
Lin Yuwei's face turned ugly as she looked at the scene before her. The surrounding whispers were like needles, penetrating every nook and cranny, and her face flushed.
"Yuwei, what's going on? How could they say such things about you?"
"Yeah, that's too much, talking about a girl like that."
The two girls who were with Lin Yuwei couldn't stand it and spoke up to those people.
Those two idiots!
Lin Yuwei gently shook off their hands, glared at the people around her, and snorted coldly, "I can walk by myself."
The few followers who were left behind stood there awkwardly, and quickly followed suit and left as well.
Lin Xi glanced at their backs, a slight smile curving her lips. Then she turned around and looked at the others.
"Since this is our first meeting, I've prepared a gift for each of you."
After Lin Xi finished speaking, the person next to her immediately chimed in, "You can come over here to collect them. Everyone will receive one, but it will be done through a lottery, and you're guaranteed to win."
"Wow, Sister Xi, you're my goddess."
"Sister Xi, you are so great, I want to be your fan for life."
"Ahhh, thank you, Sister Xi. I'll go check on my family first. It was definitely worth the trip."
"Luckily I managed to snag a ticket. I heard it's being streamed live. Those who didn't get tickets must be regretting it terribly."
At this moment, a group of people sitting at their computer desks or in front of their phones saw this and immediately lost their composure, frantically sending comments in the live stream chat.
[What the heck? Sister Xi is giving away money again? Ugh, I'm so angry! Why didn't I manage to get a ticket?]
[I feel like I missed out on a fortune, what should I do?]
[I really want to be there! Anything Sister Xi gives away must be amazing, considering she just casually gave away a diamond necklace worth millions.]
"That's not necessarily true. After all, there are thousands of people there. Who could afford to give away all those high-value gifts?"
[Didn't you hear it's a lottery? Even though it's a 100% win rate, the prize probably won't be very valuable.]
At this point, some people who hadn't bought tickets, or who were already feeling resentful, started to feel bitter and flooded the screen with comments.
[I think Sister Xi is just pretending to be generous. Holding a lottery is pointless; I bet only a handful of people will win the grand prize, and the others are probably just average-looking.]
[Maybe there's more to it than meets the eye; they might even delay the big prize. That way, they gain fame while keeping their money—what a clever scheme! No wonder they have so much money; I just can't compete with them.]
"You know that too? You're about to be proven wrong."
The camera then turned to the area where Lin Xi was drawing prizes, following her words.
The area where the lottery was being held was crowded with people, but no one dared to step forward; they all stood by and observed.
"Why aren't you guys going up? Fine, I'll go first." A rather deep voice rang out, quite loud.
The burly man placed his hand on the knob with a hint of nervousness on his face, his eyes burning even more intensely as he looked at the contents.
"Wow, brand-name refrigerators, brand-name color TVs, brand-name air conditioners, brand-name computers, brand-name mobile phones... mahogany furniture... Porsches, Ferraris, villas worth 1000 million yuan. Although the latter few are limited editions, it's still a good deal to get any of them."
The big man rubbed his hands together, bowed in the direction of Sister Xi, and then placed his hands on the knob again, closed his eyes tightly, and twisted it forcefully. The pointer on the dial began to turn.
Everyone stared intently at the gleaming golden pointer, and those in front of the screen were equally focused on keeping their eyes glued to it.
Because of the lucky draw, more and more people gathered in the live stream room, and the platform spared no effort in putting all the attention into this live stream.
The number of online users has now reached more than 500 million, which is unprecedented.

Listening to the system voices that kept ringing in her ears, Lin Xi leaned back slightly, looking pleased.
Ten seconds passed, and the pointer finally came to a slow, gradual stop.
Everyone held their breath, watching as the pointer finally wobbled and stopped at the Porsche column.
"hiss."
A hissing sound came from the scene.
Hearing the murmurs around him, the big man thought he had won a guaranteed prize, so he quickly opened his eyes and casually glanced at the roulette wheel.
"Holy crap, a Porsche? Will they really give me a Porsche?" The burly man was incredibly excited, the veins on his neck bulging. He rushed towards the staff member and asked nervously.
"Yes, sir, here are your Porsche keys. Congratulations." The staff member handed over the car keys briskly, without a trace of impatience on his face.
"Good good."
The big man said "good" three times in a row. Although he was trying his best to control his emotions, his outstretched hand was still trembling slightly.
Looking at the brand-new car keys in his hand, his eyes couldn't help but well up with tears.
Mom, he watched a show and made a car!
He can finally get married!
Wow, is this person a shill? Winning a luxury car on the first try? I just can't believe it!
Wow, I was stunned when I saw the prizes! There were even houses and Ferraris! There was only one of each, but the variety was amazing.
【Ugh, I'm so regretful now! I need to drag my partner out and give him a good beating. It was because he went to the bathroom that we missed out on tickets by just a few minutes. I'm so upset!】
[Pshaw, that's all just advertising. I don't believe he actually won the prize.]
Those present at the scene didn't care what people online thought, because this was something that actually happened right in front of them.
Their breathing quickened uncontrollably, and they all rubbed their hands together, eager for a fight...
