Chapter 262: Two hundred and sixty-one, meddle
"What should we do now? Should I still make a call to the Newspaper Office?" Luo Qin picked up the phone with a glimmer of hope, but soon put it down with a disappointed look on her face.
"First, notify the family to conduct a thorough investigation into this matter. Leave the rest to me," Luo Shu ordered. Both the TV station and the Newspaper Office were unwilling to issue a statement for their factory due to the pressure. The counterfeit products had already entered the market, and if they were to recall their own factory’s products now, it would only reinforce consumers’ belief that there was a problem with their products. Therefore, this issue had to be resolved at its source.
"Yes!" Luo Qin nodded and immediately made a phone call to pass on Luo Shu’s instructions.
Just after hanging up, a series of urgent footsteps were heard from outside.
A worker rushed in, his face filled with panic. "Factory manager, it’s bad! A lot of people have gathered at the entrance of our factory. They’re smashing our gates with bricks, claiming that someone died from using our products."
Luo Shu and Luo Qin exchanged a glance and quickly walked towards the factory entrance.
From a distance, Luo Shu saw about twenty emotionally charged people gathered at the now-closed factory entrance. At the moment, they were cursing and hurling bricks found on the ground at the factory gates.
"You heartless factory, you have to give us an explanation today, or we’ll smash your factory!"
"Compensate with money, compensate with life! Give us an explanation!"
"Give my daughter’s life back!"
"Go report it to the officials!" Luo Shu calmly instructed Luo Qin.
"Yes!" Luo Qin hurriedly walked towards the office.
Before long, Chen Zhihe arrived with a dozen security officers and managed to control the agitated crowd.
Luo Shu had someone open the factory gates and walked out. She nodded to Chen Zhihe and then turned to one of the troublemakers, asking, "Why are you causing trouble here?"
The person snorted coldly, "My big lass used your factory’s shower gel, and her whole body broke out in pimples. Her man ditched her, saying she contracted a filthy disease, and out of anger, she took her own life. Don’t we have the right to come after you?!"
"The unscrupulous factory owes our big lass a life!"
"What Little Divine Doctor, just a quack who harms people." The crowd’s emotions flared up again.
Luo Shu swept a cool glance over the crowd, "Give me no more than three days, and I will give you an answer."
"What reason do we have to trust you?"
"Exactly, what if you run away? Who do we turn to then?"
Luo Shu’s gaze hardened as she looked at the crowd. "If you continue to make trouble, I can charge you with causing a public disturbance. The security officers are right here, you might want to ask them about the consequences. If you trust me, you only have to wait three days. The choice is yours."
The crowd exchanged looks and glanced at the security officers next to them. Some shrank back in fear.
"Are you really not going to run away?" someone asked, still unsure.
"I won’t," Luo Shu affirmed.
"Fine! Then we will wait for your news," said the oldest person among them. After speaking, he waved to the others and led them away.
"Luo Shu, this incident is likely targeted at you. I encountered resistance when I deployed my men," Chen Zhihe spoke up. He had argued with the other party over this matter, but no matter what, he would always stand by Luo Shu’s side, and he also trusted her.
"Thank you, Big Brother Chen," Luo Shu nodded and thanked him.
"I’ll leave first, be careful on your own. Call me if you need anything," Chen Zhihe said and then led his subordinates toward the nearby security motorcycles.
Lu Hanmo’s eyes grew colder as he listened to the report from his subordinate on the phone, "I understand!"
After hanging up, he dialed two more numbers. He knew that even without his intervention, Shushu would resolve the situation, but he was her man, and her matters were his matters.
Luo Shu sat in the office, drinking tea, waiting for the results of the investigation from the Divine Doctor Family.
JJust then, the phone rang, and Luo Qin promptly answered, "This is Tenglong Group."
"Hello! This is Cloud City TV Station. We have arranged a time for your company to broadcast a special announcement. When would you be free to come over?"
Luo Qin was taken aback, "Alright, I will arrange for someone to come over shortly."
After speaking briefly with the other party, Luo Qin hung up and turned to Luo Shu, "Miss, the TV station just called and said they can arrange for a broadcast. They want us to send someone over."
"Hmm," Luo Shu nodded, her lips curling into a sweet smile. It must have been Hanmo’s doing; Cloud City was the Lu family’s territory after all, and with the Lu family’s help, any issue could be easily resolved. Although the Divine Doctor Family was powerful, working their influence from the top down took time.
"I will arrange for someone to go," Luo Qin said, but just as she finished speaking, the phone on the desk rang again.
Moving forward, she picked up the phone.
After a few words, Luo Qin hung up and said to Luo Shu, "It’s the Newspaper Office; they said they’ll help us publish a statement, and we need to bring the copy to them."
"You go ahead and arrange it," Luo Shu nodded.
Once Luo Qin had left, Luo Shu picked up the phone on the desk and called Lu Hanmo’s training camp.
Lu Hanmo was waiting for his subordinate’s message when he heard the phone ring, picking it up, he said coldly, "What’s the progress?"
"Hanmo, it’s me!" Luo Shu’s voice came through from the other end.
The coldness on Lu Hanmo’s face immediately softened, "Why are you calling me now?"
"Did you help me?" Although Luo Shu phrased it as a question, there was a certain affirmation in her tone.
"Shushu, I want to help share your burdens, and even more, I hope you’ll think of me first when you’re in trouble so that I can protect you and shield you from the storm," Lu Hanmo said. He knew she liked to handle everything herself, but he preferred the feeling of being relied upon by her.
Luo Shu’s lips curled into a contented smile, "Then I will come to you whenever I have a problem, and you can’t find me annoying."
"I’d be delighted!" Lu Hanmo’s lips curved upward, "I’ve already sent people to investigate the underground factory that counterfeited your products; we should hear news soon. The one behind this is Song Yuyan, and Song Xiran is likely involved as well."
"I understand!" Luo Shu smiled and nodded, exchanging a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Luo Qin entered the office and approached Luo Shu, "Miss, I’ve arranged for people to go to both the TV station and the Newspaper Office."
"Sit down and chat with me for a while," Luo Shu said with a smile, gesturing to the seat beside her. Now that Hanmo had intervened, all she needed to do was wait for the results.
