"Really?" Lu Jin glared at Lu Yuan. "She said to refute the rumors? When will she refute the rumors? Let me tell you, you have to be quick and accurate in refuting the rumors online. Otherwise, it'll be useless! "
Lu Yuan didn't think too much about it. He paused, picked up his phone, and went to his room to call Old Madam Hong.
Old Madam Hong had already woken up and was discussing with her secretary how to refute the rumors online.
Seeing that Lu Yuan was on the phone, she quickly picked up and said with a smile, "President Lu? I'm preparing to refute the rumors. I'll be able to post it online soon. "
Lu Yuan smiled. "I was just about to remind you that you have to be quick in refuting the rumors online. Otherwise, it won't be as effective as it should be."
"Got it, I got it. I'm writing it, and it'll be posted soon." Old Madam Hong agreed readily. She planned to post the lawyer's letter online as soon as possible.
The Hong Corporation was a large company, and it had its own rules and procedures.
Old Madam Hong had to go through the proper channels and complete the procedures one by one. Therefore, it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, but the lawyer's letter to refute the rumors had yet to be produced.
Lu Jin was in all his high-energy physics classes today, but he was absent-minded and didn't have the mood to work all day. He had been waiting for Old Madam Hong's letter to refute the rumors, but he didn't get it.
He was completely furious and called Lu Yuan directly from Song Jinning's office. "Where's the letter to refute the rumors?! Look at what's going on online?! "
After a day of fermenting, and with the professional water army stirring things up, those who supported Gu Nianzhi were shaken.
What was going on?
Why didn't Chief Gu say anything?
Gu Nianzhi, on the other hand, didn't care.
She was so busy that she wished she had three heads and six arms. She treated one hour as two hours, so since Old Madam Hong said that she would personally refute the rumors, she didn't take it to heart.
After another day of meeting at the Parliament building, they finally decided on the process of suing Narita Yama's news agency in the International Intellectual Property Arbitration Court.
In the conference room, Gu Nianzhi's team was very excited.
They were all young people in their twenties and thirties. Each of them was older than Gu Nianzhi by several years.
But no one looked down on her.
She used her ability and style to win the trust and obedience of her colleagues.
When the day's work finally came to an end, Gu Nianzhi rubbed the back of her neck and stretched her legs. She picked up her phone and began surfing the internet to rest.
The moment he opened his social media, he was flooded with news about the video.
The focus was still on Gu Nianzhi.
People kept saying that she was cold and aloof, that she couldn't tolerate sand in her eyes, and that she would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
Whoever offended her, she would punish them to death.
At the same time, there was another dark line that pointed to the mysterious HGC.
Although HGC wasn't mentioned many times in the posts and replies, his presence was the strongest and caused the most controversy.
His identity, background, military rank, and position were all secretly circulated.
Some people said that he was in a high position and took good care of his family.
He loved his only son very much, so he loved his son's fiancée.
When he found out that his son's fiancée had an argument with someone in the hotel, he intervened without hesitation and exerted pressure on the Hong Corporation, prompting them to fire "Miss Guo."
To avenge Gu Nianzhi, he forced "Miss Guo" to come to his house to be a nanny to take care of his father, who had just woken up from a vegetative state. He was Gu Nianzhi's future grandfather.
In this way, HGC was like a domineering high-ranking CEO, but he wasn't very friendly to "Miss Guo" who was in a vulnerable state.
However, he was unconditionally good to his family. Just this alone made many people yearn for him.
Because deep down, many people hoped to have a family member like him. Not only was he in a high position, but he was also rich and powerful. He also didn't discriminate between right and wrong and sided with his family.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the reposts and replies one by one, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
As she expected, the video belittled her on the surface, but secretly flattered Huo Guanchen.
Even though Huo Guanchen appeared in a "negative" image, he did appear in a very "negative" image.
However, Huo Guanchen's own identity and status meant that he couldn't become an "internet celebrity," let alone become the focus of public opinion.
A day passed, and several of the higher-ups in the military headquarters were very dissatisfied with Huo Guanchen.
In the evening, General Ji called him to the conference room and said unhappily, "Director Huo, this was originally your family matter, and we can't interfere. But look at how the rumors are spreading?! Aren't you going to solve this problem? "
Huo Guanchen frowned and said, "The innocent are innocent, and the guilty are guilty. I can't just strangle these people's necks to stop them from talking, can I? "
"You can't stop them from talking, but shouldn't you solve the problem first?" Speaker Long also came to the military headquarters because of Gu Nianzhi's matter.
He originally wanted to directly talk to Huo Guanchen about the matter, but General Ji said he was also dissatisfied. Therefore, they found a conference room and called Huo Guanchen over.
Huo Guanchen could only stand and listen in front of this group of people.
"General Huo, just like General Ji said, this is your family matter, and it's not up to outsiders to interfere. However, this matter involves my chief legal advisor. Are you going to do nothing and let others slander her?"
Speaker Long's expression was solemn as he knocked on the conference table unhappily.
"I'm not talking about her personal relationship with your family. Just from an official point of view, you should protect her and not let people criticize her!"
Huo Guanchen's expression was calm as he listened to the senior officials throw their tantrums. Finally, he nodded and said, "The senior officials have a point. I will handle this matter carefully."
As he spoke, he turned to Speaker Long and said, "Speaker Long, the truth is, we all know how much you have cultivated Nianzhi. She will have to experience these things sooner or later if she wants to establish herself in the Senate. It's better to let her handle it and see if she can change the public opinion. "
"Bullsh * t!" Speaker Long couldn't help but curse.
Huo Guanchen's expression darkened.
He was also a man in his fifties, and being scolded by Speaker Long in front of these senior officials made him a little angry.
Speaker Long was so angry that he didn't know what to say and hurriedly said, "… I'm sorry."
Then he quickly said, "General Huo, this matter is very simple. It has to do with the nanny you hired. Why did you hire her to be your nanny? Could it be that you couldn't hire anyone else but her? "
This was because this round of online videos and news mainly stated that Guo Huining had offended Gu Nianzhi and was forced to be a nanny at her fiancé's house.
Guo Huining was also a top student of the B University Faculty of Law and had once been a senior executive of a large company. It was indeed somewhat unreasonable for someone like her to lose everything because of a small mistake.
Huo Guanchen said in a low voice, "This matter is not what everyone thinks. I asked Miss Guo this morning, and she said she would investigate what exactly happened."
"… Don't tell me that this has nothing to do with her!" Speaker Long, who was such a well-mannered person, was about to fly into a rage. "Why do you trust her so much?!"
Huo Guanchen looked down and smiled bitterly. "My father was able to wake up from his vegetative state thanks to her helping us contact the doctor. Just this fact alone makes it impossible for me to sit by and do nothing about what happened to her. "
Speaker Long glared at him for a long time and didn't know what to say.
After a long time, he finally snorted and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a filial son!"
Huo Guanchen took a deep breath. "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. I'll go talk to Miss Guo."
"This matter better have nothing to do with her. Otherwise, hmph!" Speaker Long sat down with a flushed face and glared at Huo Guanchen. "If she still acts like nothing happened, I don't mind teaching her a lesson!"
Huo Guanchen nodded and was about to turn around to leave when his personal secretary rushed over and said, "There's new news on the Internet again!"
Huo Guanchen was speechless.
"What news?"
His personal secretary said in surprise, "It's Miss Guo! She posted a video to refute the rumors! "
The leaders in the conference room were speechless.
Huo Guanchen turned on the large TV screen in the conference room. The news channel was broadcasting Guo Huining's selfie.
She had a ponytail and had very light makeup on her face. It had a subtle nude effect, so most people, especially straight men, wouldn't be able to tell.
She was wearing a light gray heavy silk shirt. Her sleeves were rolled up and she didn't have any jewelry. She only wore a Vacheron Constantin watch on her left wrist.
The first impression she gave was excellent. She was like a completely different person from the previous Guo Huining who liked to use famous brands to flatter herself and speak and act aggressively.
She smiled apologetically and spoke slowly.
"Hello everyone, I'm Guo Huining. I'm one of the people involved in the video that has been circulating on the Internet since last night.
"I'm sorry to keep everyone waiting. I'd like to make the following statements.
"First, I would like to inform the person who secretly filmed the video that your actions have violated the privacy rights of me, my employer, and Miss Gu. Please stop your infringement immediately and delete the false video from the Internet.
"Second, I was just going for a drive near the Senate building with my employer last night and happened to meet Miss Gu. I would like to invite her to dinner and personally apologize to her.
"Third, I was careless and unscrupulous in the past and offended Miss Gu. It was my fault, and I sincerely apologize to Miss Gu.
"Fourth, I left the Hong Group for personal reasons. It has nothing to do with Miss Gu.
"Fifth, I'm now at my friend's house helping him take care of his father who has just recovered from a long illness. I was not forced by Miss Gu to go to her fiancé's house to be a nanny. Please don't believe the rumors.
"Sixth, I would like to say one last point. My employer is a very kind and very forgiving person. He reached out his hands at my most difficult and helpless moment and saved me from the fire and water.
"You'll never forget someone's kindness. Our statuses are too different, and there's nothing I can do to help him. I volunteered to help him take care of his father.
"I hope everyone won't slander him, and don't use any nasty words to judge him.
"He's the most outstanding, magnanimous, and kindest man I've ever met in my life. He's the one who shouldn't be dragged into this. I hope everyone can show him some tolerance and understanding, and don't mention him again.
"I can't let the person who helped me suffer. If that's the case, who will reach out to help those who are unfortunate enough to fall into danger in the future?
"Everyone, please be more tolerant!
"If you want to scold, please scold me. I'm at fault, I'm guilty, and I'll bear all the consequences.
