Chapter 634 The Aura Is Different
Jiang Zhe came out again to maintain the order of the crowd. “We’ll need the members of the press to stay calm!”
Nevertheless, all the journalists paid no heed to his words. They were all eager to disseminate the shocking news to the world!
Meanwhile, Ouyang Duo could not move as he was pinned to the chair.
He glanced at He Lin. “What are you waiting for? Stop them from spouting nonsense! Call the bodyguards and get me out of here!”
“Calm down, Mr. Ouyang,” He Lin coaxed him but did not take any action.
“Calm your f*cking *ss! This is how you do your job, huh? You useless piece of trash!” Ouyang Duo broke down and started cussing.
At that point, he no longer cared about his image anymore.
All this while, Ouyang Duo had always reprimanded He Lin in such a manner, but he would do it behind closed doors.
He Lin kept mum and stood still.
“Calm down, everyone. Please calm down. We will only play the second video if you remain calm. We’ll not proceed if the commotion continues!” Jiang Zhe raised his voice.
All the journalists were taken aback. There’s another video? All right, let’s calm down. There might be more to this than meets the eye. What a fruitful trip today!
The journalists finally listened to Jiang Zhe and regained their composure.
Once again, the screen lit up, and Ouyang Duo’s face was still projected on the panel. This time, the camera zoomed so closely into Ouyang Duo that it made his face look larger than usual.
Ouyang Duo’s voice was heard in the video. “That old man from the Nan family wanted me to look for the man who drugged his great-grandson. Go and get me a scapegoat.”
The next voice that emerged was another man’s voice. “Did you really do this, Mr. Ouyang?”
“Qing found someone to do it, but we’d sent the person away. No one can find him anymore. Since that old man wanted us to find the culprit, we’ll get someone to take the blame and settle it once and for all,” Ouyang Duo responded in the video.
“Why do you care about that old man when you’re already in control of Nanshi Corporation?”
Ouyang Duo explained in the video, “Though I’ll soon become the majority shareholder of Nanshi Corporation, the Nan family has been managing this company for decades, and they command strong support in the organization. I’m sure people there will not be happy that I’m taking over the business.”
He continued, “That’s why I must get the old man to attend the press conference. I must get him to welcome me to Nanshi Corporation. Doing so can save me from disgrace and, at the same time, appease the people in the company. It may look ceremonial, but it’s a crucial step to strengthen my position.”
“When someone dethrones the emperor and crowns himself as the new emperor, the people will not accept the former as the new monarch if his predecessor doesn’t acknowledge his legitimacy. But with a royal decree coming from the deposed emperor, the new emperor will then earn the legitimate rights to rule the empire. See the difference? Not only do I want to take over Nanshi corporation, but I also want everyone to know that I’m the rightful owner of the company. I want to win this game honorably!” he added.
Upon hearing that, all the journalists started going wild again.
They finally understood why Jiang Zhe said they had to call a press conference at Ouyang Duo’s request.
Not only did Ouyang Duo abduct and sabotage Nan Chen, but his daughter also drugged the little girl! What a heartless and cruel family!
Next, He Lin’s voice appeared in the video. “Got it, Mr. Ouyang. Since Ms. Ouyang was the mastermind behind the poisoning, I’ll pay someone to take the blame.”
“All right. Get it done by tomorrow. Find someone who’s tight-lipped and willing to confess to the crime. Above all, he must be able to fool the cops.”
“Don’t worry, sir. I’ll take care of it.”
The color drained out of Ouyang Duo’s face when the video ended. He started breaking out in a cold sweat.
Never in a million years did he expect his conversation with He Lin in the car would be recorded!
He finally understood it was all a trap. The Nan family may appear cooperative, but they had been leading him to fall into their trap!
He also realized He Lin had betrayed him. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the Nan family to get their hands on the video!
“He Lin, you b*stard! How dare you stab me in the back!” Ouyang Duo roared at He Lin.
“Please don’t swear in front of the journalists, Mr. Ouyang. You still need to maintain your image!” He Lin said indifferently.
“You f*cker… How could you betray me? How much did they pay you, traitor?” Ouyang Duo cursed even more harshly as he had totally lost it.
“Mr. Ouyang, you shouldn’t curse Mr. He like this. Mr. He is a righteous lawyer with a sense of justice, so of course, he’d reveal all your wrongdoings. It’s not easy to come across a great lawyer like him. We should all respect him instead!” Jiang Zhe said.
“You ganged up on me. I’ll not let you off so easily!” Ouyang shrieked.
The way he bellowed and cussed hysterically was all captured by the cameras, and the journalists instantly shared the videos on various social media platforms.
The three individuals who entered the hall with Jiang Zhe and the others stood up, walked to Ouyang Duo, and revealed their identities. “Ouyang Duo, we believe you’re involved in abducting and intentionally poisoning someone. We have to detain you to assist with our investigations, so please cooperate with us.”
“Of course, you have the right to remain silent. Please come with us,” one of the cops said.
Apparently, the three of them were plainclothes cops!
“No, I won’t leave with you. Everything they said is not real. They’re accusing me of something I didn’t do. I want to acquire Nanshi Corporation. I want to be the owner of the company!” Ouyang Duo screamed.
“Handcuff him and take him away!” a cop ordered. He has committed those atrocities, so whether he likes it or not, he has to come with us!
Ouyang Duo continued to cuss as the cops dragged him away.
Jiang Zhe waved his hand in the air, gesturing for the journalists to remain silent. “I’m sure by now, all of you understand why we called for a press conference. Nanshi Corporation has recently encountered some difficult situations, and we owe our investors an explanation. Hence, we decided to hold a press conference to clarify some doubts. Now that the cops have taken over the case, we believe justice will be served, and the perpetrator will be punished!”
“Any updates about Nan Chen since he was abducted by Ouyang Duo?” a journalist expressed his concern.
“Thank you for your concern. I’m fine, and Nanshi Corporation is doing all right.”
The man seated in the wheelchair finally spoke!
“He’s Nan Chen, not Nan Xing!” a journalist exclaimed.
“I knew something was amiss. The aura he exudes is totally different. So he really is Nan Chen!”
“Sir Chen is fine. He’s all right!”
All the members of the press became agitated as they did not expect this to happen.
Jiang Zhe voiced, “I’ll not go into the details of the abduction, but we’ll keep the cops updated to assist them with the investigations.
“Sunshine Corporation and Nanshi Corporation have been business partners for years. And Mr. Chen and Mr. Ouyang, too, were close friends. That’s why we’re disappointed with how things have turned out. We never intended to reveal these details, but since Mr. Ouyang insisted on calling a press conference, we had no choice but to agree to his request.
“We hope the media can report on this matter objectively and give the investors and shareholders of Nanshi Corporation and Sunshine Corporation a clear picture of what had happened to the companies. We believe in quashing rumors with the truth. Thank you for your cooperation.”
