The news that Xu Taiping was going to hold a press conference spread quickly through the entire Luo City.

Almost all the media outlets in Luocheng had taken notice of the news. Before eight o'clock, they had already filled up the entire hall where the press conference was held.

Luo City, somewhere.

"Mr. Martin, Xu Taiping is going to hold a press conference!" Martin's assistant said.

"Press conference?" After Martin heard the assistant's words, he laughed and said, "He's anxious to wash his face, but how could it be so easy? The current Xu Taiping has already become a street rat, who would believe what he says? He would never wash his face clean! This kind of thing could only get worse the more time it took for them to explain it. Who was the one who came up with this idea at a press conference? Under these circumstances, who would listen to what he said? It would be better to just hide and find that waitress to settle the matter privately. After a period of time, the commotion will die down.

"Should we send some people to fan the flames?" Martin's assistant asked.

"We don't need to arrange anything for you!" Martin shook his head and said, "Do you think those reporters won't stir up trouble? "Everyone wants to step on that Xu Taiping right now. Whoever stepped on him best will have the highest viewership rating, and no one will let go of this opportunity. Those reporters will definitely think of all the tricky things. We just need to let those reporters do as they please!"

"Alright!"

"What's the name of the Chinese language? The heavens are on my side, hahaha. " Martin laughed and said.

To them, Xu Taiping really was finished this time.

Kyle Moss Hotel.

"Taiping, have you thought of something to say? A press conference?" Guo Yunpeng asked.

"En!" Xu Taiping nodded, "I know what to say."

"Sigh, I really don't know why you're holding such a press conference. The public opinion is so intense now, but since you're holding it, then you must have your own thoughts. I can only wish you success!" Guo Yunpeng said.

Xu Taiping smiled and said, "Wait for my news!"

With that, Xu Taiping turned and walked out of the room.

Eight o'clock.

Xu Taiping walked into the press conference on time.

The scene was filled with the sounds of flashing lights. At the same time, the dazzling flashing lights lit up the entire place.

Xu Taiping walked to the back of the stand and sat down.

"Mr Xu, may I know …"

"Mr Xu …"

Groups of reporters could no longer suppress their excitement and asked questions.

"Be quiet." Xu Taiping said.

The reporters from all over the country did not care about Xu Taiping. Xu Taiping told them to be quiet, but they still rushed to ask the questions they wanted. Some of them were even afraid that Xu Taiping would not hear them, so they shouted the questions out loud.

"Be quiet." Xu Taiping frowned.

The media reporters still ignored Xu Taiping and continued to ask their questions. The scene was extremely noisy.

Xu Taiping raised his hand slightly and tapped on the table twice.

Bang bang!

These two sounds weren't very loud, but they were very depressing. And with these two knocks, a terrifying killing intent was suddenly emitted from Xu Taiping's body.

In an instant, the temperature of the meeting room seemed to drop by several degrees.

For some reason, everyone had miraculously quieted down at the same time.

The large group of reporters looked at each other in dismay. They did not understand why they had suddenly quietened down. It was as if there was an invisible force pressing down on their shoulders.

"Hello everyone." When everyone had quieted down, Xu Taiping said lightly, "I think everyone has been very familiar with me recently. You've probably covered my news more than once in these two days, right?"

The reporters at the scene were all silent. Even at this point, no one spoke. That was because the pressure and the coldness were still on them!

"A lot of people told me that I shouldn't hold a press conference at this time, because I'm on the cusp of a storm right now, and once I appear, I'll drown in saliva. Everyone told me to wait until the limelight is over before considering holding a press conference, and even more people told me to use money to block Linda, the so-called victim's mouth, because they told me that your Mi country's laws are different from ours. Linda accused me of sexual assault, so I had to prove that I didn't violate her, and in that confined space, it was difficult for me to find evidence that I didn't. Why should I pay a fee for keeping my mouth shut when I've never done anything before? " Xu Taiping said.

Following Xu Taiping's words, the crowd became rowdy once again. It seemed like Xu Taiping was lying with his eyes wide open. Everyone said that he had sexually assaulted someone, and yet he said no. That was an excuse!

Seeing that the scene was going to get noisy again, Xu Taiping knocked on the table again.

Instantly, the scene went silent once again.

"I've been thinking about how I could prove my innocence, because I don't have any evidence that I didn't have sex with Linda during that time. Even if I had a hundred mouths, I wouldn't be able to explain it. I was troubled for a while, I even thought of suicide, but, I believe, even if I did commit suicide, I wouldn't be able to prove my innocence, because you can say that I committed suicide out of guilt … "

At this point, Xu Taiping paused for a moment, then continued, "However, the heavens have eyes, really eyes. Just when I was helpless, a hacker found me."

Hacker?

The reporters present were all stunned. What was the use of hackers finding Xu Taiping at this time?

Seeing the stunned reporters, Xu Taiping said, "It was at this time that I found out that my computer had already been hacked by this hacker. At the same time this hacker was monitoring my computer, he also turned on the camera on my computer, which is to say, unless my computer shut down, my camera would record everything in front of him, and coincidentally, yesterday morning, when the so-called sexual assault occurred, my computer was always on, and also always in my operation. That is to say, during the sexual assault, the surveillance camera was able to record the scenes and sounds in my room.

Hearing Xu Taiping's words, the reporters present were once again unable to control their emotions, and they all let out exclamations of surprise.

No one would have thought that there would be such a reversal at this time!

If there was such a video, maybe it could prove Xu Taiping's innocence!

"I think all of you should know the key point, right? If I can get the video from the hacker and publish it, then I can prove my innocence. Thus, I asked the hacker for the video and the hacker made his request … "He gave a price, five billion dollars …" Xu Taiping said.

"Five billion dollars?" Everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air.

Five billion dollars per video was definitely the most expensive price in the world for a single video. The price was outrageously high!

"As I'm sure you all know, five billion dollars is a lot, a lot, a lot more than Linda proposed 50 million dollars. If I can cover Linda's mouth with 50 million dollars and make peace with Linda, then why would I need to spend five billion dollars? A lot of people might think that, but I... That's not what I thought. If I gave 50 million dollars to Linda, then I would be admitting that I sexually assaulted her, but I will never admit that I didn't do anything, even if I have to pay ten times or even a hundred times the price for it, I will never admit it. So, without any hesitation, I spent five billion dollars to buy that video. Xu Taiping snapped his fingers.

The lights in the meeting room dimmed, and a video was projected onto the screen.

The video was from Xu Taiping's laptop, which was right in front of the door.

He could clearly hear the sound of Xu Taiping tapping on the keyboard, as well as Linda, who was pushing the dining station at the door.

Linda put the plate on the bed next to Xu Taiping's bed and began to clean it.

The entire camera recorded Linda's cleaning process.

Linda first cleaned outside the room and then went back inside. Throughout the whole process, Xu Taiping didn't say a single word to Linda.

The cleaning process lasted for half an hour, and the scene of Xu Taiping forcing her and hitting her didn't appear. Everything was very calm, and Xu Taiping didn't even try to tease Linda with his words.

It was not until Linda had cleaned up and taken everything away that the video ended.

Xu Taiping snapped his fingers.

The lights were back on at the press conference.

Looking at the silent reporters in front of him, Xu Taiping slowly spoke, "Now, I think everyone should know if I'm innocent or not, right? I will post this video to all major media and also send it to the judge in charge of this case. I think that the judge will give me a fair judgement and return my innocence! "
