Chapter 486 Keung strikes back

Chapter 486 Keung strikes back　　An Yueqin was stunned. It suddenly came crashing to her what she just spouted in the heat of the moment, angry and furious at him for ignoring Chyou. Her face paled, and her heart pounded furiously in her chest.

An Guoting exclaimed in happiness. "You finally admitted it! You finally confessed that you are my Yueqin!"

She froze.

"Now, you cannot go back on your words. In the event you tried to run away or pretend that you didn't confess or lie that I am making stuff up, then…"

From behind some bushes, four figures who were hiding all this time came out. Zizi, Yunru, Caihong and Shuang made their presence known.

An Yueqin's eyes widened. "You…*

Yunru smiled. "We are sorry for snooping like that, but considering how evasive you were behaving all this time, we had no choice. Since I am a cop, you cannot refute or go back on the things you just said."

Caihong had tears in her eyes. "Mom. If you remembered everything all this time, then why didn't you ever come back to us?"

Shuang shook her head. "You tortured my poor Dad's soul so much."

Zizi laughed. "Hahaha! I knew it! Once Chyou enters into the game, the soft-hearted grandmother wouldn't be able to hold on for longer~ Hahaha!"

Zizi was laughing like an evil villain in a drama series. Caihong and An Yueqin were stunned.

Caihong asked, "So when I asked her what Grandpa and she were planning all this time, it was about tricking Mom?"

"Yes! It was my idea! My idea!" She blushingly wrapped her arm around Yunru's. "Praise me, my dear fiance. I have been working very hard."

He grinned. "I will give you your due reward."

She blushed even more furiously. "I will be waiting."

Shuang smacked her head. "Go get a room, you two lovebirds. We have more important things to tackle here."

She grumbled. "You are jealous because you have yet to be so cozy with Jack Si."

"..."

Who told her about that?

She eyed An Guoting, and he smartly looked away just in time as he coughed.

An Yueqin was panicking. "I cannot…I cannot believe this! How could you use a child to fool me?"

He stared at him. "I admit it's cruel, and we took advantage of your feelings, but you left us with no choice. You clearly remember everything and even know the culprit behind all this, but you were not speaking a word about it."

She clenched her fists. 

"I don't know what you are talking about!"

Yunru faced her and narrowed his eyes. "I know that Keung is not the one threatening you."

She stiffened.

"He is working for someone to work on the outside and take all the blame. But somebody else is pulling the strings from behind him."

She said nothing.

"I am pretty sure you would want to get out of this mess yourself. If you let us help you, then you can get free once and for all. But you have to cooperate with us. Do you agree?"

—

A few more days passed and the reaction to Han Corps' announcement was still going pretty strongly. There were a lot of haters who opposed this decision and threatened Keung that they would boycott going to all the hotels under Han Corps.

The situation was dire and in the end, Keung had no choice but to hold a press conference to address this issue.

In front of the cameras constantly clicking his pictures, he came forward towards the mic. The employees at the company were quite distressed as they watched the live stream. This was a make or break moment for everyone.

Keung raised his palm and everyone quietened down. 

"I know what questions you want to ask and I am pretty sure it's just one question being wrapped around over and over like cotton candy. One question, different versions of it. So let's save ourselves the time and cut to the chase."

"..."

"Aaaaaalright. Now, look. I know I have made some mistakes in the past which have affected my image to a lot of extent. I have only myself to blame for that, and I take this opportunity to sincerely apologize to my family and the employees of the Han Corps for my shameful actions."

The employees were speechless.

"I also take this opportunity to thank all the employees who worked with me for these last few months despite my ways and reputation and not giving up on me. I thought I could do it all by myself, but I was wrong. I needed everyone to run the company. So, thanks a lot for bearing with me. As my gratitude, I announce a raise in everybody's salaries. Twice than what they get now."

They almost stumbled from their seats.

"If I win this challenge, then it will be four times."

At this point, everybody actually fell.

Is he serious!??

Keung continued. "Now coming back to the main juicy news you were all waiting for. The announcement. Yes, it's true and no, I am not gonna take it back. The Han Corps is officially and unreservedly opened for the LGBT community. The message is given to all our staff. If anyone of them misbehaves with any same sex couple, he or she would be fired on the spot. I won't tolerate this nonsense."

All the reporters - "!!!"

"The same is true for the customers. If our staff finds any customer humiliating anybody from the LGBT community, they will be thrown out of our hotels and would be kicked out forever from getting reservations in the future in any of our hotels."

Silence.

"Last but not the least. The keyboard warriors who have been dissing me all this time behind an anonymous username," he smiled. "You see, my dear ignorant sweethearts. Your insults are not gonna work on me because you have nooooooooo idea who I have lived with until now. Before my Grandpa Han Huizhong's poisonous words, your humiliation feels like a utter joke."

Han Huizhong spat out his tea and coughed hard.

You brat!

Keung chuckled. "You should all take lessons from him on how to properly roast someone until you bleed."

Everybody watching the live stream - "..."

He sneered. "Also, I don't give a damn about a bunch of people hiding behind their computer screens and attacking me like some mad dogs. If you have the guts, come to my company and face me personally. Humiliate me on my face if you have the courage. If you don't then…"

Keung showed his middle finger and sneered again. "Fuck you all homophobics. Go to hell."
