Some reporters realized they couldn’t get anything from Lu Qing and didn’t dare to push further, so they shifted their focus to Qin Momo.
"Miss Qin, what is your relationship with Mr. Lu?"
Qin Miaomiao sat there, her beautiful features paired with a cool demeanor. Her gaze was sharp as she glanced at the reporter who asked the question, and responded softly:
"The Xingyao Group is almost bankrupt. Why would Mr. Lu still choose to invest in Xingyao? What’s the reason behind this?"
Qin Miaomiao replied unhurriedly:
"Because Xingyao is worth investing in."
"It’s been rumored that the former president, Qin Lin, embezzled company funds and fled. Is this true?"
"This is an internal company matter that has already been handed over to the prosecutor’s office."
Someone still wanted to ask further, but Lu Qing, now visibly impatient, stood up and said directly, "This interview is over. Miss Qin, I look forward to working with you."
Qin Miaomiao immediately rose as well and extended her hand toward him. Their hands clasped together, with an understanding smile on their faces. This moment was captured by cameras and uploaded online.
Lu Qing rarely appeared in public settings, but whenever he did, it was as if a superstar had arrived, drawing immense attention.
Although he wasn’t a celebrity, he was treated like one, with a massive fan following. His face alone could win over countless fans, not to mention that he was a wealthy and powerful CEO. The various "auras" around him were enough to make young women infatuated.
This particular press conference was broadcast live online as a promotional event for Xingyao. From the moment Lu Qing appeared, the viewership skyrocketed to over ten million!
The website’s servers were almost crashing, and as soon as the comment section opened, the screen was completely covered by those red-text remarks!
Lu Qing’s influence had reached an absolutely terrifying level!
"Ahhh, Lu Shen, I want to have your babies!"
"Lu Shen is my husband; no one’s allowed to compete with me."
"What kind of dumb questions are these reporters asking? How do they even have the presence of mind to speak in front of Lu Shen’s face?"
"Yeah, seriously! Just looking at his face is satisfying enough—they still have the nerve to chatter!"
"Did anyone notice that the person in charge of Xingyao is also quite pretty? She seems to go well with Lu Shen."
"Shut up! If anyone dares to say Lu Shen is compatible with someone, I’ll kill them!"
"Exactly, Lu Shen belongs to all of us!"
"Lu Shen! Lu Shen! Lu Shen!"
Topics related to Lu Qing had already been pushed to the top of hot search rankings. His popularity was easily comparable to that of A-list stars. All he needed to do was show up—not sing, not act—and he could gain countless fans, making people feel both envious and resentful!
Thanks to this momentum, the news about Long Ting Group’s strong investment in Xingyao immediately made headlines, and Qin Miaomiao was also thrust into the spotlight for the first time.
This incident was, in a way, beneficial for Qin Miaomiao.
However, just as they finished dealing with the reporters, Lu Qing and Qin Miaomiao boarded a stretched Bentley. There was wine in the car, and Lu Qing poured her a glass.
"Looking forward to our partnership, hmm?"
Qin Miaomiao’s eyes carried traces of mirth. "Looking forward indeed."
After all this time, Lu Qing had rarely seen a genuine smile on her face. When she smiled, she was stunning, with delicate dimples, clear eyes, and even the curve of her lips was mesmerizing.
"Thank you, Lord Lu, for stepping in to help."
"You don’t know? Online, that’s what your fans call you—Lord Lu. You’ve already been pushed to the top of the trending charts by your fangirls."
As she spoke, she picked up her phone and showed it to him. Lu Qing didn’t take the phone but instead held her hand and leaned in to look.
He was very close, his warm breath scattering around her. She felt a sense of suffocation, sneaking glances at his face, and found herself deeply captivated by the unfathomable depths of his gaze.
