The butler finished relaying the situation to Quan Jinbei, still looking worried.
"The things they're saying about Madame on the internet, they're really nasty, even though all these scandals have already been debunked. Still, there are those who are not afraid of death, insisting on stirring up trouble."
After hearing the butler out, an icy chill seemed to radiate from Quan Jinbei, as if it could freeze someone solid.
He looked at the butler and asked, "Has no one suppressed these scandals?"
The butler's face showed difficulty when he brought up this subject.
Quan Jinbei urged him to continue, and the butler then said with a tone of self-reproach, "It's my fault for not protecting Madame's reputation."
After the release date for "Crimson Tears" was set, a large-scale smear campaign against Shi Yaoguang surfaced on the internet.
The butler wanted to quash these baseless rumors immediately.
But before he could act, the old master stopped him.
