Chapter 351
At Yunzhou City, it was shocking news that Su Group was brought over by Feng Group. It created a great stir and it
occupied the front-page headline for a few days before it slowly lulled. For a few consecutive days, Su Ziyue and
Feng Xingyan were busy settling this matter. There was a last press conference today. After this, the heat of this
matter would abate.
Su Ziyue went to the restroom to touch up her makeup before returning to the meeting hall. Right after she sat
beside Feng Xingyan, he gave her an eye, signaling that it was time to start. In the beginning, the reporters asked
common and by-the-book questions, such as the future-developing directions of Su Group and the management
ideas of Feng Group. Toward the end, however, the questions from the reporters began to change.
“Miss Su, I heard that you’re initially the second eldest daughter of the Su Family, but why are you working at Feng
Group? I also heard that you’re highly appreciated by President Feng.”
Upon hearing that, Su Ziyue furrowed her eyebrows. Then, she leaned nearer to the microphone and replied
calmly, “I’m sorry, this is a personal question. It’s not within the scope of today’s questions, so I have no comment
on that.”
Taking it lightly, the reporter was just concerned about her private affairs. However, her last sentence of ‘highly
appreciated by President Feng’ was clearly saying that Su Ziyue and Feng Xingyan had some shady relationship.
Receiving such a malicious guess, Su Ziyue didn’t look too happy. Although she didn’t make public that she and Feng
Xingyan were relatives, she felt that it wasn’t necessary to do so.
Sitting beside her, Feng Xinyan suddenly asked, “Which publishing company are you from?”
Being questioned, that reporter looked flustered. “I-I’m from Yunzhou Press!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Feng Xingyan spoke, everyone focused their eyes on that reporter. Every journalist who attended this kind of
formal event was sharp. As soon as they heard Feng Xingyan’s question, they understood his suspicion that this
person wasn’t a financial reporter.
Soon, someone from Yunzhou Press asked him, “Why haven’t I seen you before? Are you new?” There were plenty
of reporters in a publishing company, but only a few were handling the financial column. Besides, those who
attended this kind of formal event would have a certain record of service. Therefore, it was impossible for
colleagues who worked in the same column for some time to be unfamiliar with each other.
That reporter looked even more flustered now. Feng Xingyan then instructed his assistant to go over there. The
assistant went over and politely said to the reporter, “Please show us your press card.”
That reporter paled with panic. Suddenly, she raised her head and stared straight at Su Ziyue. “Indeed. I’m not a
reporter from Yunzhou Press but an entertainment reporter from Candy Press. Miss Su Ziyue, I’m here to ask if Gu
Hanyan’s sudden withdrawal from public was forced by you.” She said it hastily and rapidly, so no one could stop
her in time.
When Su Ziyue heard ‘Gu Hanyan’ these three words, her face became icy. Before she could speak, Feng Xingyan
forestalled her. “Please bring this reporter out.” Then, someone came forward to drag her out.
However, that reporter refused to concede and shouted while walking, “It must have something to do with you! You
must have destroyed the relationship between her and Qin Muchen. Then, you make him force Gu Hanyan to quit
the entertainment industry. Su Ziyue, you’re the most wicked woman. It’s unworthy of her that she treats you as
her best friend….” That reporter spoke loudly at fast speed. Her voice transmitted to every one’s ears in the scene,
even though the bodyguard dragged her out using a pace that could be described as running.
Feng Xingyan’s face, which always looked genial, became unhappy too.
Looking down, Su Ziyue inwardly sighed. After this press conference, the acquisition of Su Group by Feng Group
could be all done and dusted. Unexpectedly, such an interlude happened. Feng Xingyan was rigorous in his work.
Therefore, he was upset that such an incident occurred during the press conference.
Perhaps, Su Group had a considerably high status in Yunzhou City in the past. So, when it was acquired by Feng
Group now, it adequately proved that Feng Group had an extraordinary ability. Therefore, these people didn’t dare
to speak or act recklessly. Fortunately, the press conference ended successfully in the end.
…
On the way back to Yanyue Media, the atmosphere in the car was oppressive. Su Ziyue and Feng Xinyan sat
together. Turning her head to the side and glanced at Feng Xingyan, Su Ziyue realized that he was reading a
document.
He was already busy with his own work. Yet, he still had to help her in settling Su Group’s matters. That made Su
Ziyue feel grateful yet guilty. She discreetly looked at Feng Xingyan and said, “Uncle Xingyan, sorry for troubling you
these few days…”
“It’s not a big deal,” Feng Xingyan replied without even raising his head. He was still focusing on the document.
However, Su Ziyue could sense his displeasure from his tone. After pondering, she decided to explain what had
happened during the press conference. “About the press conference just now—”
Unexpectedly, Feng Xingyan directly snorted and said, “You don’t need to explain it. It’s all caused by Qin Muchen!
He should have settled all of these.”
Upon hearing that, Su Ziyue quietly bowed her head low. If she wasn’t mistaken… Feng Xingyan wasn’t that
repulsive toward Qin Muchen in the past. Before this, he was at most only displeased with Qin Michen. However,
judging from his tone now, he seemed to even abhor Qin Muchen.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at Feng Xingyan’s attitude, Su Ziyue felt that she shouldn’t speak again. Feng Xingyan was introverted by
nature so after that sentence, he didn’t say anything else.
…
Although the interlude that happened during the press conference seemed to have settled at that time, the after-
effects were strong. Before the next day and in fact, on that same night, the news was spread out. When Su Ziyue
got off work, she was caught up by reporters at the company’s entrance.
“Miss Su, good evening, I’m a reporter from xxx. May I ask about Gu Hanyan’s sudden withdrawal…”
“Miss Su, I’m…”
Gu Hanyan had great repute. Therefore, when her sudden declaration of retirement and unknown whereabouts
clashed with this incident that had just occurred, it became a hot topic. Before this, some publishing companies
wanted to look for Su Ziyue too, but they were afraid of Qin Muchen, so no one dared to seek her out.
Now that Su Group was bought over by Feng Group, they became the focus of attention from the media, so they
needed to show a positive image. Viewing from all aspects, Su Ziyue had to give them an answer when the
reporters sought her. Apparently, these were only the thoughts of the reporters. In Su Ziyue’s heart, she didn’t care
about these.
“I’m sorry but I have no comment on this.” Su Ziyue pushed away the microphone in front of her with a cold look.
Then, she turned to walk away. However, those reporters ran after her. Su Ziyue’s face turned even colder while
she called loudly, “Guards!”
Fortunately, she was at the company’s entrance. Earlier on, when Su Ziyue was caught up by the reporters, some
guards had already started to rush over there.
