Chapter 268: Chapter 266: Xin Zaozao’s Press Conference

Translator: 549690339

“Mu Cidian, what are you holding in your hands?!” Xin Zaozao gripped his arm and asked vehemently.

What Mu Cidian was holding in his hand was his resignation letter.

He looked at Xin Zaozao’s extremely emotional state and didn’t answer.

In that moment, Xin Zaozao directly reached for the letter from Mu Cidian’s hand.

Mu Cidian raised his hand beyond her reach.

Xin Zaozao’s eyes tightened, she called out to Nie Feng, “Nie Feng!”

Nie Feng stepped forward and caught hold of Mu Cidian’s arm.

Mu Cidian didn’t let go.

Nie Feng and Mu Cidian began to struggle for the letter.

Nie Feng was crude.

After failing to claim the letter twice, he suddenly rammed his elbow into Mu Cidian’s stomach.

Mu Cidian’s body immediately bent at the impact.

His face visibly changed.

Meanwhile, Nie Feng took the envelope from Mu Cidian’s hand, which due to the force applied, was ripped in two.

Xin Zaozao stood by, silently observing Mu Cidian.

Watching him enduring, always enduring, it seemed as if his forehead was even sweating.

Nie Feng handed the torn envelope to Xin Zaozao.

Xin Zaozao didn’t look at Mu Cidian’s overly enduring expression again, she took the half piece of the torn envelope and saw the words “resignation…” The other half still in Mu Cidian’s hand.

She frowned.

she swiftly glanced over the text inside. She asked Mu Cidian, “Whose resignation letter is this?”

Mu Cidian forced himself to straighten up.

He said, “Mine, but I regret it now.” Xin Zaozao looked at him coldly.

Mu Cidian left Xin Zaozao’s office.

He tried to keep his back straight as he walked past Xin Zaozao.

Xin Zaozao gripped the resignation letter in Mu Cidian’s hand tightly.

She really didn’t know what Mu Cidian was trying to do. She would rather have Mu Cidian be like Wan Quan, upfront and clear about his intentions, at least then she would know what he was planning. But the current Mu Cidian was like a time bomb next to her. She couldn’t fathom his thoughts, pondering what sinister plots he had against her!

Upon returning to his office, Mu Cidian couldn’t hold on any longer.

He placed the torn half of his resignation letter on the desk and then squatted on the floor, suppressing a cough.

Nie Feng’s attack just now was not particularly severe.

But the old injuries on Mu Cidian’s body made him wince from the pain, almost vomiting in front of Xin Zaozao.

He felt like his stomach was cramping at that moment, the pain was so unbearable that he couldn’t stand up straight.

Xin Zaozao sat in her office chair.

Today she asked Yan Quan to arrange a meeting with the press at Xin Group.

So she came in a bit earlier to prepare, she needed to think carefully about what to say.

She had initially thought of what to say, but the sudden exposure of the video involving Mu Cidian made her come up with a different version.

She hadn’t expected to see Mu Cidian in her office as soon as she came in today.

She was overly excited, judging from Mu Cidian’s behavior, she felt he was up to something against her again.

Her eyes fell on the resignation letter she had thrown into the trash can.

Resignation?!

What does Mu Cidian want to do after resigning?!

He’S not resigning now?

What is he planning next!

Her expression grew uglier.

She would no longer be like before, getting played by Mu Cidian’s whims.

“Can’t Mu Cidian handle it?” Nie Feng, who was sitting on the couch, suddenly spoke up.

Xin Zaozao looked at him.

“I didn’t hit him that hard just now. Looking at Mu Cidian’s state, I thought I might have killed him.” Nie Feng said with a light tone of humor.

Xin Zaozao looked back.

She had noticed it too.

Despite Mu Cidian’s strong endurance, his sudden paleness revealed his physical discomfort.

The image of Mu Cidian with wounds all over his torso from last night suddenly appeared in her mind. She found it horrifying, but there was no trace of sympathy, she didn’t care about Mu Cidian’s life or death at all. She just told Nie Feng, “Be careful in the future, Mu Cidian is injured. We can’t afford a mishap.”

If they were to cause Mu Cidian’s death, they would be the ones to suffer.

“Alright.” Nie Feng respectfully nodded in response.

It was nine o’clock in the morning.

Yan Quan arrived at the company and properly arranged the venue for the press conference.

He entered Xin Zaozao’s office and said, “Chairman, we can start now.”

“Okay.” Xin Zaozao nodded.

She had written a brief script on her computer.

She remembered it silently, afraid of leaving out any important details.

Looking at her, Yan Quan couldn’t help but ask, “Actually, General Manager Mu explained everything very clearly yesterday. Personally, I think there’s no need for the chairman to clarify anything further to the media. The public’s current opinion of you is still favorable, and even when the stock market opens tomorrow, there won’t be much impact. The chairman doesn’t need to face those tricky journalists.”

“No problem.” Xin Zaozao glanced at Yan Quan and smiled, “I don’t intend to evade anything. In future, I want to face everything head-on. I believe that there are no unresolvable problems in this world!”

“Hmm.” Yan Quan nodded.

He admired Chairman Xin Zaozao’s domineering spirit more and more.

No matter what, she never chose to retreat.

He was genuinely worried when he saw her scandal break yesterday, wondering if it would knock her down. However, she calmly asked him to arrange today’s press conference, where she would clearly explain things to the reporters.

No matter what the outcome was.

But he admired her fearlessness.

Xin Zaozao seemed well-prepared, she stood up from her chair and told Yan Quan, “Let’s go, Secretary Yan.”

“Oh.”

Yan Quan followed behind Xin Zaozao, with Nie Feng naturally trailing behind.

The press conference was held in a special conference room of the Xin Group. In front of the conference room door, Xin Zaozao took a deep breath and without any hesitation, signalled Yan Quan to open the door of the conference room.

Many reporters were inside.

The sizeable conference room was jam-packed with people.

Xin Zaozao walked to the front center position and sat down.

Yan Quan and Nie Feng each stood by her side.

Despite being petite, Xin Zaozao exuded a strong aura as she sat there.

She spoke plainly into the microphone, “Thank you, members of the press, for attending my personal press conference amidst your busy schedules. The primary purpose of this meeting is to clarify the video leaked at my engagement party with Ji Baili yesterday.”

The reporters below waited quietly for her to speak.

Xin Zaozao said, “I believe you all saw the statement issued by Mu Cidian yesterday. What he said was mostly true, but there are some things I have to add. Firstly, the video indeed features me and Mu Cidian. Just as Mu Cidian said, he forced himself on me. What I need to emphasize is that he was not drunk at that time; he was just playing wild under the influence of alcohol. It’S not only that time in the video; there have been countless other instances where he behaved like a beast with me since I was 18. I had to endure his constant violations due to some circumstances in my family.”

Xin Zaozao’s words instantly caused a stir among the reporters below.

A reporter wanted to ask a question.

Xin Zaozao stopped him, saying, “Let me finish first. Secondly, I am truly sorry for causing trouble for Ji Baili and his family with my scandal. Please, media friends, do not focus on the Ji family. The ones who should take all the responsibility for this incident are just me, Xin Zaozao, and Mu Cidian. Please spare the Ji family. I have not met a better man than Ji Baili. Please, leave them alone.”

“Finally, my engagement to Ji Baili has been peacefully dissolved. The Ji family did not treat me disgracefully, nor did Ji Baili bear any resentment towards me. It was my own decision to leave, knowing how much I fall short of Ji Baili. I sincerely wish Ji Baili can find a girl who is perfect for him. I do not wish to shadow him with any of my experiences. I hope he’ll have a happy future.”

Xin Zaozao had said everything she wanted to say, neatly and crisply.

The reporters looked at her with astonishment.

They were quite stunned by Xin Zaozao and everything she had revealed.

It was as if she had suddenly transformed from an unknown young girl into a powerful woman. Xin Zaozao reminded them, “Now, you may ask questions, and I will answer them as best I can.”

Only then did the reporters snap out of their stupor and hurriedly began to ask, “Chairperson Xin, from what you just said, can we understand that Mu Cidian has been forcing himself on you since you were 18?”

“Yes.

“Why did he treat you like that? We always thought he was abstinent based on our past observations.” said the reporter, a disgusted look on his face.

Every time Mu Cidian appeared in public, he gave off a cold aura. It was hard to believe he could be such a beast!

“Maybe he thought I was easy to bully.” Xin Zaozao sneered, “In my family, my father didn’t love me, my stepmother abused me. As a member of the family, I suppose Mu Cidian felt out of place if he didn’t do something cruel to me.”

“Your father doesn’t like you? And your stepmother Wan Quan often beats you?”

Xin Zaozao nodded, “But those things are in the past. Now that I’m grown up, I have learned how to protect myself!”

“I heard that you currently still live under the same roof as Wan Quan and Mu Cidian. Aren’t you afraid that Mu Cidian and Wan Quan will continue to treat you that way?”

“I am afraid. But fear doesn’t mean retreat. Xin Family is mine, and both Mu Cidian and Wan Quan are intruders. Why should I give away my own possessions? The ones who should have left a long time ago are Wan Quan and Mu Cidian.”

“You’re absolutely right,” the reporter agreed.

“Chairperson Xin, may I ask about your situation with Ji Baili?” another reporter asked.

“Go ahead.”

“Has your engagement with Ji Baili just been annulled that simply? Did Ji Baili let it go so easily?”

“It’S not that Ji Baili lacks persistence, but that I am very determined. I admit that at present, I do not match Ji Baili. Hence, I chose to break up. If there comes a day when I become the person I want to be, if Ji Baili is still single then, and if there’s a chance, we might still have a possibility. But for now, I don’t want to hinder Ji Baili. At least for now, he deserves better.”

“But from our perspective, Chairperson Xin Zaozao, you are more than worthy of Ji Baili.”

‘You just don’t know how great Ji Baili truly is.” Xin Zaozao said. As she spoke, she was clearly touched, reminiscing about the sunny boy and their past moments together caused her emotions to flicker. Even as she was trying hard to hold back, tears welled up in her eyes. But at this moment, she managed a smile, “Ji Baili is the best man I’ve ever met, and Mu Cidian is the most disgusting. After experiencing both, the stark contrast between the two made me determined not to harm Ji Baili. He doesn’t deserve to be spoiled by someone as dirty as I am.” ‘We still feel it’S a pity,” expressed the reporter with regret.

Xin Zaozao gave a faint smile and didn’t say more.

“So, what does Chairperson Xin plan on doing next? Do you have any plans for your future life?”

Xin Zaozao nodded, “For me, personal attachments might be a fatal blow, so I will probably not touch upon it lightly in the future. What I want to do now is to manage the Xin Group properly. I’m still young and lack experience, and suddenly have taken up the position of the Chairperson of the Xin Group, which is a bit too challenging for me. Hence, for quite a long period of time, a very, very long period, my focus will be on my job. I hope that years from now, when you see Xin Zaozao, I will have fully evolved into a powerful businesswoman. On this platform today, facing the national populace, I solemnly vow to my Xin Group directors and employees. If I ever neglect the Xin Group or fail to fulfill my duty, you have the right to dismiss me! I also hope that you can trust me. Believe in me, even though I’m young and lack experience, I will try my best to take responsibility for all of you!”

After saying this, Xin Zaozao stood up, and gave a deep bow.

At that moment, she was facing the reporters, as well as thousands of her Xin Group employees.

From now on, the only thing she would do is work.

By the way, she would expel Wan Quan and his mother.

She turned and left.

The reporters did not push for more questions as they watched her walk away.

For a 23-year-old girl to reach this point, she’s probably at her limit.

They had no need to continually push her to it.

Xin Zaozao left the conference room.

She took a deep breath.

To say she was not nervous would be a lie.

Facing all these reporters, any slight slip of the tongue could be misinterpreted. She strived to appear composed.

Yan Quan looked at Xin Zaozao’s demeanor and smiled.

The chairman always seemed to be calm and domineering in critical situations, but seemed to lose her spirit in an instant in private.

It’s salient, she lived life courageously, with great effort.

From the scandal of Xin Zaozao and Ji Baili’s engagement banquet obscene video to Mu Cidian’s unilateral video declaration, then to Xin Zaozao’s press conference, Xin Zaozao suddenly became the hottest person in Jin City. Even a trivial report about her immediately trended, envying many popular celebrities.

Not only did Xin Zaozao’s experience not threaten the stability of Xin Group, but instead, Xin Group’s share price rose a little at the beginning of the week and continued to surge throughout the week, completely unexpected.

This is probably the effect of the news.

Otherwise, why would so many celebrities, despite the scandals, desperately want to trend?

Yin Qin sat in his office chair, looking at the news that had been hot for a full ten days without signs of decreasing. He browsed the news contents, seeing Mu Cidian being cursed; perhaps his ancestors’ graves were smoking by now!

And for such a long time, Mu Cidian did not react at all. After all, he admitted it – he was a beast, a scum, a bad person!

Forget about developing well in Jin City in this lifetime, at least in Yanshang Country, no woman would dare to approach Mu Cidian, no woman would dare to marry him!

Thinking of this, Yin Qin felt a sense of satisfaction.

At least he was not the only one destined to be alone.

He closed the news and dialed a number.

The call was answered, “Yin Qin.”

“Ji Baijian, I’m thinking of breaking off the engagement,” Yin Qin said. Ji Baijian seemed to hesitate for a moment with the phone in his hand.

Yin Qin said, “I also want to trend.”

“Don’t ruin your reputation too badly. Take Mu Cidian as a warning,” Ji Baijian reminded.

Yin Qin laughed, “I’m not as bad as Mu Cidian. My image has always been unfavorable in the public’s eyes, unlike the stark contrast for Mu Cidian. So, there won’t be such a backlash against me!”

“Hmm.” Ji Baijian nodded.

“By the way, you agreed? Didn’t you want me to take over the Milky Way? Aren’t you afraid that if I make a fuss about this, my dad might really get worked up and hand the Milky Way over to my cousin?”

“Your father is more rational than you.”

“But better be prepared, Weng Cheng is not simple.”

Yin Qin nodded, “I know..”
