In the hotel suite.
Due to the failure of the Corporation in forcing Wu Mei to step down, Wu Pang drank cup after cup of alcohol in silence.
Seeing how useless he was, Yang Shan felt disgusted. However, she had no choice but to pretend to be gentle and sensible as she moved closer to him and massaged his aching temples.
“Even if she has some skills and can convince the shareholders to bow to her, it’s not like we’re completely helpless against her!”
“What solution do you have? Speak!”
Wu Pang pushed himself up and sat up.
Yang Shan pointed at the bruises on his arm and abdomen. “As long as we upload the photos and medical assessment of your injuries onto the Internet and purchase a few slots for trending topics, the netizens will seek justice for us! Beating up her biological father? How unfilial! Everyone will be on our side!”
“This…”
Wu Pang was a little reluctant.. After all, it was too embarrassing!
However, Yang Shan persuaded him, “As long as the public opinion is beneficial to us, we can redeem our reputation by getting back our company and villa!”
Wu Pang gritted his teeth as hatred flashed across his eyes.
If it weren’t for that unfilial daughter, Wu Mei, how could they have ended up staying in a hotel?
After hesitating for a while, he took out his phone and took a photo of his bruises…
…
In the villa, Wu Mei opened her eyes and yawned. She wanted to go out and throw the trash away.
The moment she opened the door, the reporters who had been camping outside the entire night, rushed over with their cameras!
Wu Mei quickly retreated and closed the door again. On high alert, she pressed the button on the intercom screen and saw countless faces crowding there, trying to spy on the situation inside. She took out her phone and looked at the trending topics. Soon, she saw the little trick Wu Pang had played.
“Excuse me! Madam Wu Mei, do you admit to beating up your biological father?”
“What’s the reason? What kind of hatred would make you attack your biological family? Are you willing to apologize for this?”
The reporters’ words were sharp and even contained some biased and unpleasant words that displeased Wu Mei.
They don’t know the full story yet they are trying to stand on the moral high ground to accuse her based on incitement from certain parties and one-sided information?
Ridiculous!
Wu Mei lowered her head and fiddled with her phone. She pulled up the surveillance video from the day before and deliberately took the section of the clip where Wu Pang was scolding her and uploaded it onto the Internet. She also sent it to the “Defenders of Justice” outside.
She also generously bought a few expensive push advertisements and waited for Wu Pang to shoot himself in the foot!
Ring! Ring!
The phones of the reporters surrounding the place began to ring.
They lowered their equipment and watched as Wu Pang cursed disgustingly on the screen. He even tried to provoke Wu Mei in a suicidal manner. When they saw his 200-pound body charged towards Wu Mei, they broke out in cold sweat. They only heaved a sigh of relief when Wu Mei sent him flying with a kick.
“That’s what really happened! Wu Pang doesn’t look like a father at all!”
“A father like that is just a beast! He even wants to use us to target his daughter! Is he trying to push his daughter to her death?”
“For profit! Seriously unscrupulous!”
The reporters were agitated and said to Wu Mei, who was inside the door, “Madam Wu Mei, we’re sorry!”
“Today, we blindly believed his words and disturbed you. Don’t worry! We will definitely do a follow-up report and let everyone know Wu Pang’s true colors. We will seek justice for you!”
The reporters left and called headquarters to investigate Wu Pang’s address.
Wu Mei happily hummed a tune. Seeing the netizens berating Wu Pang angrily, her appetite soared and she ate two sandwiches.
“Good-for-nothing! Look at the good idea you came up with!”
“What do we do now? Tell me!” Wu Pang shoved Yang Shan to the ground and berated her with a vicious expression on his face, itching to give her a few tight slaps!
Yang Shan’s fingers dug into the edge of the carpet. Her heart was filled with hatred towards Wu Mei. She gritted her teeth and her hair was dishevelled as she remained silent.
Wu Yi bit her lip, filled with hatred as well. However, she pretended to be gentle and handed Wu Pang a glass of water. She helped Yang Shan up and said, “Dad, don’t be angry. Mom isn’t to blame for this. She didn’t expect Wu Mei to have a recording and surveillance video. She just wanted to take revenge for you.”
“Hmph! Did she not think about what Wu Mei could come up with?!”
Wu Pang looked at Yang Shan in distaste and said sarcastically, “Is Wu Mei the only smart person in this family?”
Yang Shan wanted to retort, but Wu Yi secretly pressed on her arm and linked arms with Wu Pang. With a smile on her face, she said, “No matter how smart Wu Mei is, how long can she be arrogant without the Li Family to rely on? Dad, I’ll find a way to get close to Li Nanchen…”
“If I can successfully marry him, would you still have to be worried about the Corporation?”
Wu Yi’s eyes sparkled. This day has finally come!
Wu Pang studied Wu Yi’s face. She was quite pretty and might really be able to bring benefits to the Wu Family. At the thought of this, he felt a little better. He looked at Yang Shan and asked, “Are you okay?”
