Our Glamorous Time( A Vsoo adaptation novel by Ding Mo)

Chapter 20(Twists and Turns)

Nobody would miss out on a free red packet. In this segment, Jisoo could take on a relatively relaxed attitude and watch from the sidelines.

Indeed, the moment after 8:00 pm hit, there were already a number of IDs logging in to the lucky draw eggs portal at the same time. And according to plan, the results of the draw would pop up on both the activity homepage and the background randomizer simultaneously.

Jisoo kept her eyes glued on the screen.

Lucky lady—the first egg she chose to crack is the top prize.

“Congratulations to our customer from Shandong, ‘Linda,’ who hit the top prize. Please bring an identification document with you to any Layover storefront to redeem your 10,000 yuan red packet.”

Jisoo smiled. Could this be a good sign?

The second notification appeared closely after, and it was another top prize.

Jisoo was slightly shocked but she smiled. What a coincidence.

At that moment, a technician in charge of monitoring the operations of the website outside the room stood up suddenly. “Some... something went wrong!” The person beside him also had a drastic change in expression. He looked at the screen and exclaimed. “They are all top prizes! We’ve been set up! We’ve been set up!”

Jisoo felt her heart jolt. She lowered her head to look, only to find that the entire page was flowing with notification after notification:

“Congratulations to our customer from Henan, ‘Rotating Apple,’ who hit the top prize...”

“Congratulations to our customer from Hunan, ‘Yaya,’ who hit the top prize...”

“Top prize.”

“Top prize.”

...

Within a short period of time, there were 20 winners, far exceeding the initial allocation of 10 top-prize winners, and the number was continuously increasing. She immediately stood up and ran outside. Meanwhile, the technicians had all noticed the abnormality, and were all covered in cold sweat while looking towards the branch manager and Jisoo .

The branch manager also had cold sweat all over his head. He shared a glance with Jisoo and asked solemnly, “How long will it take to repair this?”

Someone replied, “We have to temporarily close the website if we want to repair it. Currently, we are unable to gauge the degree of the setup, and hence we are unable to guarantee the time we will require...”

The branch manager’s face had turned blue by now, but he had no other choice. With much effort, he turned to look at Jisoo. “Assistant Kim, please report this situation to President Kim. It was negligence on our part. We have to close down the website immediately. If not...”

He did not finish his words, but it was already enough to cause Jisoo’s hands to sweat uncontrollably. Because of this little trick, there were already over a hundred “top prizes.” Jisoo could almost imagine the whole swarm of customers that would come to snatch their effortless 10,000 yuan.

“I will give him a call immediately.” She turned around and entered her little office before closing the door tightly behind her.

As she dialed his number, her fingers trembled slightly.

So many days of hard work and effort—this was their last hope. Mr Kim had to sell his house and land to cash out 30 million before he could even embark on this battle—how could it just fail now?

Upset, she was terribly upset. Indignant, she was terribly indignant.

Was is SMQ or New Bori?

When the line connected, her voice naturally stabilized as usual. “President Kim, something went wrong. Our online flagship store has been set up, and every egg that is being hit is a top prize. The IT department needs to suspend the website immediately to repair it. Really... sorry.”

On the end of the line, Taehyung remained silent for a while.

Grasping her phone in her hand, Jisoo was on the verge of bursting into tears.

However, she hadn’t expected Mr Kim to reply to her in such a way.

“Kim Jisoo, what do you think? Right now, should we suspend the website or not?” His clear voice was slow, but at the same time powerful.

Jisoo’s heart jolted and she paused in shock for a moment.

He asked me whether or not to suspend the website?

If they suspended it... they would lose the trust of the customers, which was equivalent to giving up on their past efforts. Their establishment of a good start—which had taken so much effort—would be affected by this serious setback. Tomorrow’s sales would definitely be dismal.

Don’t suspend? Simply lose 20 million?

She shut her eyes, and she could only see darkness.

“...Don’t suspend the website!”
