Yang Cheng turned his head and took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He asked coldly, "Is Miss Lin Hui in the office now?"
Zhao Teng shook his head. "No. She's in the limelight right now. Hua Xia's media are all chasing after her. We booked a private plane for her to return home in Beijing the moment the report came out. That should be the safest place for her."
"That's good. Don't let those flies keep an eye on her. I'll go to the headquarters now. Get the mainstream media to write positive reports no matter how much it costs.
Also, find the source of the scandal! We have to make these dregs whose brains are filled with sh * t understand that not everyone is allowed to gossip. "Yang Chen's voice sounded rather sinister.
Zhao Teng shivered and nodded in fear. He couldn't imagine what would happen to those people if Yang Cheng found out which media had published the report first.
When he rushed to Lin Ruoxi's office, she was on the phone.
"Mm, alright … Thank you, Mom … I'm fine …"
Lin Ruoxi looked rather haggard, and her lips were pale. Seeing that Yang Chen had come in, she hung up the phone after replying a few times and sighed faintly.
"Did you ask Mom for help?" Yang Cheng walked to her and patted Lin Ruoxi's back.
Lin Ruoxi forced a smile. "Yeah, I'm not familiar with the people from the SARFT and the Press and Publication Bureau. Mom can talk to them and get more media to help. We'll try our best to suppress this matter."
Yang Cheng nodded. This kind of thing required connections. Otherwise, they couldn't just kill anyone who dared to speak ill of them. The public's mouths could not be shut. They could control some big media, but there were tens of thousands of media in the country. They couldn't control all of them.
"I didn't expect things to turn out this way. It's my fault that day. I wasn't observant enough and didn't notice that someone was taking pictures of us." Yang Cheng asked guiltily, "Ruoxi, you didn't misunderstand, did you? I was just helping Hui Lin to adjust her mask. She was eating sweets and forgot about it."
Lin Ruoxi furrowed her brows and said unhappily, "What do you think I am? Is this the time to be calculative? You should be more concerned about Hui Lin now. She is being condemned by everyone. Those who supported her and those who didn't like her are now doubting her and scolding her. She's so young and innocent. I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it … "
As she spoke, tears welled up in Lin Ruoxi's eyes. She blamed herself deeply and said, "I was worried that the entertainment industry would be too chaotic and Hui Lin would get hurt if I couldn't control it well. I didn't expect that something like this would happen even after I set up my own company … And it happened because I asked her to go to the kindergarten … I'm so sorry …"
"Don't say that. You're just being kind. Besides, if this didn't happen, Hui Lin would be very satisfied with her work." Yang Cheng comforted her and tried his best to distract her. He said, "Have you informed the kindergarten? Someone will definitely go there to interview the teachers."
Lin Ruoxi said, "I've already asked Mingyu to take charge. She's very good at public relations. It shouldn't be difficult to control it. But the problem is, there are so many media outlets in the country, especially those that are against Yu Lei. With this momentum, they definitely won't listen to us and stop. When the time comes, the public's curiosity has been aroused, and they won't stop until the matter is blown up. When that time comes, how do we clean up the mess and clarify the situation? "
Yang Cheng was also having a headache. He had never dealt with something like this before. He had no idea what to do at all.
At this moment, Zhao Hongyan's scream could be heard from outside …
"Hey! Madam! You can't do this! You can't … "
Yang Cheng heard it and came back to his senses. He suddenly realized that someone was here. He frowned and smiled bitterly. "You sure came fast."
The door was pushed open so forcefully that even the lock was broken!
Abbess Yun Miao was dressed in a blue coat. Her hair was tied up and she looked exceptionally elegant. But at this moment, her aura was fierce and her eyes were filled with killing intent. It was obvious that she was here to vent her anger!
Zhao Hongyan followed behind and couldn't stop her no matter what. She bowed to Lin Ruoxi apologetically and left.
Lin Ruoxi was also stunned. When she saw Abbess Miao, she stood up and wanted to say something. But she saw Abbess Miao rushing forward and slapping her!
"Slap!"
It wasn't Lin Ruoxi who was slapped. It was Yang Cheng who had come over and grabbed Abbess Miao's wrist.
Abbess Miao's eyes were fierce as she sneered. "I forgot that you're still here. Why? I can't hit your wife, but my precious granddaughter has to be bullied?"
"Abbess, I know you're angry. We're angry too. I didn't expect you to come here so soon. But you can't hit my wife." Yang Cheng tried his best to be calm. Under such circumstances, it was understandable that Abbess Miao wanted to hit Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi was shocked but she quickly pulled Yang Cheng's hand away. "Don't hit her. Hubby, let me speak."
"Speak. Hmph, what else do you have to say?" Abbess Miao questioned.
Lin Ruoxi sighed. "Madam Lin, I know you hate me for letting Hui Lin enter the entertainment industry. I'm also responsible for this. But I'll do my best to save Hui Lin's reputation. Please believe me, I really want Hui Lin to be well."
Abbess Miao snorted. "You only know how to talk nonsense. Tell me, what can you do to save my Hui Lin's reputation? The public is in an uproar. Hua Xia is full of nonsense!
My Hui Lin has been cultivating with me since she was young. She's such an innocent and kind child. Do you think she can take it when people from all over the country look at her with disdain?! Would you be able to take it if it was you?!
To think that she kept calling you, an outsider, 'sister'. How can you face her as a sister!? Do you know what the people are saying? They're saying that she destroyed your marriage! That she secretly gave birth to a child!
Do you think Hui Lin's heart will hurt when she hears these words?!
I told you not to sing, not to appear on TV, not to enter the entertainment industry! But you didn't listen! Now it's all over! My Hui Lin, an innocent girl, has been harmed by you! Are you satisfied?! "
Questions and roars echoed in the office.
Yang Cheng was speechless. His heart ached at the thought of Hui Lin being alone in Beijing.
On the other hand, Lin Ruoxi's eyes were also red. She was trying her best to hold back her tears.
"I'm sorry, Madam Lin. I didn't want Hui Lin to feel lonely, so I asked her to come with us to watch the children perform. I didn't expect things to turn out this way. If you want to hit me or scold me, I can accept it because I'm indeed responsible."
Yun Miao sneered, "Lin Ruoxi, I know you're smart, but don't try to show off in front of an old lady like me! You're just worried that my Huilin will be like other women and want to share your husband, right? Don't tell me you're purposely trying to tarnish our Hui Lin's reputation? "
Lin Ruoxi raised her head abruptly and shook her head vigorously. "No … No! I didn't! I've never thought of it that way! "
Yang Cheng said in a deep voice, "Abbess, you've crossed the line. I know you're angry, but you can't spout nonsense!"
"Nonsense? Fine, let me ask you. Do you like my Hui Lin? Do you really not have any feelings for Hui Lin? "Yun Miao turned to look at Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng was stunned. After a while, he said, "Hui Lin is a good girl, but I really don't have any feelings for her."
"Hmph, you don't have any feelings for her? That means you don't reject liking her, but you don't dare to. Men are like this. What they can't get is the best," Yun Miao said in disdain.
"Abbess, this isn't the problem now. Instead of belittling and cursing us, why don't you think about how to help Huilin out of her predicament!" Yang Chen was also a little annoyed.
Yun Miao shouted, "Do I need you to say that?! Do I still need to rely on sanctimonious sisters and brothers-in-law like you?! I'm here today to tell you that I'll be bringing Hui Lin back to Emei tomorrow. I'll have nothing to do with you anymore! Don't ever come into contact with my Hui Lin again! Get out of my sight! "
"Madam Lin, you can't do this. The more you do this, the harder it will be to salvage Hui Lin's reputation. She can hide for a while, but can she hide forever? If there's a problem, we have to solve it! "Lin Ruoxi said anxiously.
While they were arguing, a grey figure walked out of the elevator and arrived at the office in a few quick steps.
The old man smiled at Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi. He looked kind. It was Gray Robe.
"Madam, you can't blame Childe Yang and his wife for this. Let's return to Beijing first. Taking care of Miss Hui Er is the most important thing. She's the only child of the Lin family!" Gray Robe advised.
Ever since Lin Zhiguo left, Gray Robe remained in the Lin family to assist Yun Miao in managing the family. His loyalty was evident.
Yun Miao obviously respected Gray Robe a lot. Although she wasn't done venting her anger, she nodded reluctantly. After glaring at Lin Ruoxi and Yang Chen, she turned around and left quickly.
Seeing that Yun Miao had left, Yang Cheng said to Gray Robe in shame, "Thank you. It was thanks to you that I was able to save Ruoxi in time. I'll have to trouble you to mediate this time."
Gray Robe was confused when he heard that. "Last time? Which time is it that Childe Yang is talking about? "
Yang Cheng wondered if this old man had dementia. He forgot about it so quickly.
"It's about the fake Magical Girdle. Didn't you tell me that the Bloodlings went to Nanshan?" Yang Cheng said.
Gray Robe frowned and thought for a while. He still couldn't understand. "Why do you say that? I haven't left Beijing for two months. I'm only here to follow Madam. Why would I be involved in the Magical Girdle?"
