Chapter 406: One Wrong Step and It’s a Lifetime_1
Ye Qilan felt guilty towards Su Hongxing. How could he bear the slander of netizens against her?
“Notify all, and invite several mainstream media outlets to a press conference tomorrow,” Ye Qilan contemplated for a moment before instructing.
“We can’t afford an interview now. The other side is just trying to make a bigger fuss about this. Master Ye is rushing over, sir, please wait a little longer,” Age said anxiously.
Everything stacked together, it was clear that someone was setting up a trap using Su Hongxing as bait.
“Isn’t it just the same old nonsensical lectures from that old man?” Ye Qilan seemed unaffected.
The longer the delay, the worse for Su Hongxing.
Seeing that persuasion was futile, Age had no choice but to obey the orders.
By the time Master Ye arrived, Ye Qilan had already announced the news of holding a press conference tomorrow.
“Sisi, cancel the press conference tomorrow!”
The first sentence from Master Ye displeased Ye Qilan.
He poured a cup of tea for Master Ye: “Grandpa, the news has been released, and it won’t be changed.”
Whoever was plotting behind the scenes clearly wanted him to take the bait. The person knew all his affairs, and probably just wanted to make him a laughingstock.
“You can hold the press conference, but you can’t acknowledge Su’s relationship with you, and you mustn’t let people know that she is pregnant with your child and you are engaged to Mo Qiu. Such a scandal will affect you and bring shame to the Ye Family. You are not a child anymore, you should know how to weigh the importance and urgency of things!” Master Ye said sternly.
Therefore, women cause trouble. Especially during this crucial time, the news about Su Hongxing’s miscarriage got leaked out.
Ye Qilan had indeed had a reputation of being a womanizer, but no one was able to get close to him, thus no solid evidence was ever found.
As the successor of the Ye Family, he represented both the image of the Ye Family and the Ye corporation. Such a scandal, once exposed, would affect the stock market and cause fluctuations in the price of the Ye corporation’s stock.
“It was my child that she was carrying. Do you want me to tell the world it was another man’s child?” Ye Qilan frowned.
“This is an order, don’t mess around!!” Master Ye said in a heartbroken voice.
He had known the severity of the situation before he came to Qingmu Garden.
Qingmu Garden was Ye Qilan’s base, and the fact that Ye Qilan had brought Su Hongxing here meant one thing, he didn’t intend to part with her.
Ye Qilan stood up and said, “I will act according to my own wishes.”
“Stay where you are!” Master Ye sternly shouted: “I am asking you again, are you sure you want to get involved with Su? You have to know, taking one wrong step could ruin your whole life!”
He really didn’t want to be so ruthless!
But if Ye Qilan was just a man who neglected his career and family for a woman, he could not pass the Ye corporation to his hands.
Ye Qilan hesitated, but he remained determined.
Master Ye said harshly: “If you choose Su, I will have to give the Ye corporation to Xiandong. You have until 8 o’clock tomorrow morning to change your mind, don’t keep me waiting!”
Ye Qilan held the title of successor of the Ye corporation outside. If he insisted on his way, tomorrow would be the deadline!
After seeing off Master Ye, Age said to Ye Qilan: “Sir, are you really going to concede the Ye corporation to the third young master?”
In fact, they all knew that the person plotting behind this was from the Ye Family. The one who gained the most from this incident was the most suspicious.
Ye Qilan had been immersed in the business world for years, experienced in these tactics, it should not be hard for him to guess who was behind this.
