In no time, the top posts on social media became about Lucky. People were talking about Lucky arguing with his fans and even lashing out at their parents. They also dissed Lucky for tastelessly picking a fight online. They claimed that he was being cocky because he knew a high-ranking official in the government. He quickly trended on social media.
Tong Yu had just hung up on the phone with the marketing department barely ten minutes ago when they called back.
After Tong Yu hung up the phone, he looked livid. He picked up his phone again to check his social media account. He suddenly felt a heart attack coming on.
“Oh god! Can you stop making trouble at a time like this?”
Although he could understand Huo Xiang’s anxiety about defending his little sister’s reputation, he did not have to overreact!
Huo Xiang’s face looked cold. “They were asking for it.”
Tong Yu pressed his forehead. Just as he was about to reason with Huo Xiang, Huo Xiang’s phone rang. Since Huo Xiang had to answer the phone, he shut up and focused on driving.
The person on the phone was none other than Huo Tingrui.
Huo Tingrui was at the firm. He was on the phone as he looked at the computer screen. “Has Yao seen the things going on online?
Huo Xiang acknowledged softly before he added. “… Probably not much.”
Huo Tingrui let go of his mouse and leaned into his seat. “Fine. Since people are saying really harsh things online, make sure she doesn’t see it.”
“Okay,” replied Huo Xiang.
Huo Tingrui ended the conversation and hung up the phone.
A few seconds later, Huo Tingrui tapped on Huo Xiang’s post and commented: [If anyone dares to slander my little sister, @Little Princess H’s Alias, you can expect a lawyer’s letter from me!]
Huo Tingrui was a genius lawyer and had never lost a case in his life. He was the best lawyer in the industry, so everyone in the legal circles admired him.
Although he did not have as many followers as Huo Xiang, he was extremely well connected. If anyone offended him, they had to be prepared to contend with the entire legal industry.
The moment he posted his response, many reputable lawyers and major corporations liked his post and showed their support.
People only knew that Lucky was Huo Yao’s only older brother at this point in time. The moment Huo Tingrui made a post through his official social media account, many major corporations stepped forward in support. The incident escalated to a whole new level.
This was no longer a simple matter of gossip. It had escalated to a legal problem.
The people who had just dissed Huo Xiang moments ago on his social media account were stunned when they noticed all this support Huo Xiang had garnered from these major companies.
They might not know any people in the legal industry, but they certainly recognized all these well-known companies in the country that were impossible to miss.
Since these renowned operations had shown their support for Lucky, it was clear how powerfully connected they were.
[Oh god. Who on earth is this Huo Tingrui from Cutting Edge Legal Firm? How could he make those major companies step forward and show support?]
[I just Googled it. He is a famous lawyer. He is known for being an upright man and has never lost a case in his career. That means, if he wants to hold anyone accountable, there is no escape!]
[He is a Huo too. They must be siblings, right?]
[One of her older brothers is a top celebrity while the other is a top lawyer. Just think about it. Why would anyone with a family like this have to be someone’s mistress? It is clear that the person who came up with the rumor did not even bother to check Lucky’s little sister’s family background, right?]
