Chapter 531: Chapter 531: I Do Not Acknowledge!

"Fang Bai!"

Shen Huanian gritted his teeth as he glared at the television screen, where Fang Bai was privately chatting and laughing with Xia Chenyu. His heart filled with hatred and jealousy, he violently smashed the wine glass in his hand onto the floor.

Suddenly, a crimson stain spread across the golden-yellow carpet, looking almost like fresh blood.

The beautiful lady who was massaging him turned pale with fright, shrinking to one side, too scared to make a sound.

"President Shen, did Fang Bai offend you?"

Li Dongyang looked at Shen Huanian with curiosity.

In Li Dongyang’s memory, Shen Huanian was gentle and elegant, a well-cultured gentleman from one of the Prominent Clans. The fact that he had lost his composure like this indicated that there must be some deep grudge between him and Fang Bai.

"If your most beloved woman was stolen by him, wouldn’t you hate him?"

Shen Huanian’s eyes were bloodshot, his face twisted into a fearsome visage as he spat out the words with loathing.

"Hate!"

Li Dongyang swirled the wine in his glass, gulped down the red wine in one go, and then threw his glass onto the floor as well, declaring loudly, "I like Xia Chenyu, pursued her for a long time, but in the end, she was snatched away by Fang Bai... I fucking hate him to death!"

After a pause, he turned his head to look at the television screen and pointed at Fang Bai, "I’m just wondering, what’s that guy doing at the Beauty Company meeting? What did Xia Chenyu want with him?"

"This Fang Bai, I’ve been paying attention to him for a long time. You mustn’t underestimate him!"

The bloodshots in Shen Huanian’s eyes gradually disappeared and he calmed down, his gaze coldly fixed on the television screen as he said, "Not only is he highly skilled in medicine, but he is also a Martial Artist, and he very likely has a background with the Ancient Medicine Sect. So, I advise you not to compete with him for my sister; if a conflict arises, you might be at a disadvantage!"

Li Dongyang curled his lip, his face bearing a disdainful sneer as he coldly laughed, "So what about the Ancient Medicine Sect? Our Donghai Li Family isn’t to be trifled with either!"

Shen Huanian sighed and said, "With this Fang Bai around, I can’t get Tang Wenrou, and you can’t get Xia Chenyu... This guy is our nemesis! I don’t know why, but every time I see him show up, I feel a little uneasy, worried that there might be a problem with the plans we’ve carefully crafted..."

Li Dongyang laughed heartily, "President Shen, when did you start getting so superstitious? Don’t worry, there won’t be any issues!"

"I hope so..."

At ten o’clock in the morning, Zhao Xiaomeng’s crisp and sweet voice rang out in the multi-purpose conference room:

"Friends, first of all, on behalf of President Xia and all the staff at Beauty Company, I welcome your presence. Due to some well-known reasons, we have called this explanatory meeting... if friends have any questions, you may ask our President Xia and our Vice President Fang Bai..."

After Zhao Xiaomeng spoke some official-sounding formalities, she briefly introduced Xia Chenyu and Fang Bai’s identities.

Xia Chenyu was the president of Beauty Company; many people present knew her, but few were familiar with Fang Bai, the "Vice President" of Beauty Company.

However, at this time, everyone’s focus was on Xia Chenyu, and not many were paying attention to Fang Bai.

"Friends from the press and consumers of Beauty Company, if you have any questions, you can ask me or President Fang now. We will withhold nothing and tell you everything..."

Xia Chenyu moved the microphone closer to herself, leaned slightly forward, and scanned the crowd below the stage with a smile as she spoke.

Her charm was innate, and with a myriad of seductive graces, a frown or a smile from her could captivate souls; many men in the audience felt their spirits soar at the mere sight of her.

Fang Bai sat quietly beside Xia Chenyu, with a serene smile on his face that made him seem like a sunny, handsome boy-next-door. Only when his gaze swept over the dozen or so "victims" of Beauty Company’s products did a sharp glint flash in his eyes.

The dozen or so "victims" felt a chill run down their spines when Fang Bai’s gaze passed over them, feeling as if his eyes could penetrate to the bottom of their hearts, which was quite terrifying.

"All right, now for your questions... Since there may be a lot of friends who want to ask questions, please stand up when I point to you," Xia Chenyu said with a smile.

No sooner had her words fallen than hands shot up below the stage, including those of various reporters and the "victims."

"This friend here."

Xia Chenyu pointed to a female reporter in the third row.

The reporter stood up excitedly and asked loudly, "President Xia, the inspection report issued by the relevant authorities yesterday mentioned that your company’s products contain dangerously high levels of lead and mercury. Do you acknowledge these test results?"

Xia Chenyu shook her head and said earnestly, "I do not acknowledge it! Our products do not have any problems!"

As her voice fell, there was a stir in the crowd, and the emotions of the "victims" became especially agitated. Some stood up and began tearfully accusing Beauty Company’s products of harming them, and others uttered foul words, creating chaos at the scene.

Zhao Xiaomeng, with a cold expression, repeatedly called for silence over a dozen times before the audience calmed down again. After shouting out for a while, the "victims" seemed somewhat tired and took their seats.

Yet Xia Chenyu remained unflustered and continued to wear her captivating smile as she said, "Friends, we held this press conference to solve problems, not to argue. So, please stay calm, okay? If you have any questions, you can put them forward, and we will provide you with satisfactory answers."

"President Xia, why do you not acknowledge that inspection report? That came from Zhongzhou City’s authoritative inspection department!"

The same female reporter continued with her question.

Xia Chenyu replied, "Because I suspect that certain staff members from the Zhongzhou City inspection department have taken bribes from those behind the scenes, deliberately issuing unjust and biased inspection results."

Her statement once again caused a commotion in the crowd, with many people wondering if Xia Chenyu could not provide substantial evidence to support her claims, she would be offending the relevant authorities.

"Then may I ask, President Xia, do you have evidence to prove there has been misconduct by the relevant department? And who exactly are you referring to when you speak of those behind the scenes?" the reporter asked with shining eyes and an eager expression.

With one question, she touched on the potential misconduct of Zhongzhou City’s inspection department and the hidden culprits behind the scenes—a story with significant news value.
