Crack, crack, crack. The noise made Tang Hongbo a little upset, he tried his best to stabilize his mind before replying.
The moment those words were spoken, it caused a commotion. The reporters below the stage rushed to be the first to ask what was going on.
Secretary Wang looked at Tang Hongbo, as if he did not want to answer.
"Everyone, everyone, this is a personal matter. Please be lenient with your words." Secretary Wang said while laughing.
"Then can you tell me why we cancelled our cooperation with Sima Qian Yi and still want to buy it?" The reporter asked again.
Tang Hongbo seemed to have thought about it, and then said slowly.
"I still have principles when doing things. Which one of my partners doesn't have character? Since a company has come to the end of their life, can't they change their manager?" Tang Hongbo replied with a sharp look in his eyes.
Not only Secretary Wang, even the spectators below the stage all quietly sweated for Tang Hongbo.
There was no problem with his words. The bad part was that everyone mentioned Sima Yun from the Sima Clan.
Which one of them didn't know that the person was Sima Yun, but what he said was indeed a little inappropriate.
But whether or not these problems affect the company's development, he may not really care.
Tang Hongbo criticized Sima Yun's character, but these reporters were the ones who came to watch the show.
"I would like to ask Boss Tang's referee, do you mean that there is a problem with Sima Yun's character?" The reporters obviously wouldn't let go of these questions.
When Tang Hongbo heard this, there were no changes on his face, he only remained silent the entire time, as if he did not want to answer this question.
"Friends of the reporters, our CEO likes to joke around. He didn't mention anyone by name, so please don't let your thoughts run wild." Secretary Wang said while giving Tang Hongbo a meaningful glance, but Tang Hongbo was not only selectively deaf, he was also selectively blind.
He suddenly put his slender hands into his pockets and said with an expressionless face.
"I'm talking about him. Do you really expect him to manage a person like him who can't walk when he sees a woman? Since the Sima family does not want the Thousand Will, then what's wrong with me giving up my capital to buy it? " Tang Hongbo's righteous words shocked everyone below the stage.
Secretary Wang silently wept behind him. CEO, the only thing he can do was to help you, it's not that he did not want to help, but those words made him unable to do so.
Everyone was flabbergasted. They didn't know if Tang Hongbo was joking or was he angry, but it wasn't important at all to those reporters.
The important thing was what Tang Hongbo had said.
"This stinking brat, what is he saying? Cough, cough, cough …" Old Man Tang trembled in anger below the stage. He had always known Tang Hongbo's temperament, even though he was usually harsh and malicious, he was able to differentiate between what was important and what was important. Today, he publicly criticized Sima Yun on such an important occasion that was out of the ordinary.
Old Man Tang, too, had some understanding and impression of this Sima Yun who ate, drank, and gambled. But Tang Hongbo's actions, would undoubtedly cause strife between the two families.
Old Man Tang was so angry that he quickly covered his chest.
"Uncle Tang, are you alright?" Rong Xuan immediately stepped forward and asked with concern.
"It's fine, it's fine. This damn brat doesn't even put me in his eyes anymore. Look, what is he talking about?" Old Man Tang sighed.
A pleased smile surfaced on Rong Xuan's lips, but he had been wronged and decided to take the blame for no reason. Tang Hongbo probably thought that Duan Wenzhuo's disappearance was related to Sima Yun.
Rong Xuan sneered in his heart, the Sima Clan would definitely not let him off this time, he did not notice when Duan Wenyu came to his side.
"This is what you want right? Let Hongbo think that it was Sima Yun who kidnapped Duan Wenzhuo and then let him settle the score with the Sima Clan in front of everyone right? "So it turns out that I was still underestimating you before this." Although Duan Wenyu was looking at Tang Hongbo on stage, the words that came out of her mouth were actually directed at Rong Xuan.
"Wenyu, no matter how you think of me, I will help you. If this matter is not beneficial for you, I think I will not do it." Rong Xuan replied in the same manner.
They spoke in voices that only two people could hear. In the eyes of others, it was as if they didn't know each other.
"Is that so? I hope so. " As Duan Wenyu said this, she turned around to talk to the people beside her, to the point where she couldn't see through any flaws in them at all.
But on stage, Tang Hongbo was entangled with another round of questions from the reporters.
"Boss Tang's referee, I heard that Mrs. Tang is participating in this anniversary with you. I wonder if we can meet her?" Suddenly, a male reporter asked.
Tang Hongbo's eyes darkened and suddenly shot a terrifying look at him. However, the male reporter was still trembling with his hands holding the microphone, as if he would not stop until he received the answer.
Tang Hongbo was only thinking about Duan Wenzhuo's safety. Regarding the questions the reporters were asking, he would not answer them, and would only waste his time asking the questions.
"My apologies, everyone. Madam is not feeling well, but the CEO has already sent her home to rest. It seems that everyone will not be able to meet her this time. Next time, I will definitely let everyone meet her." At that critical moment, Secretary Wang was still reliable, he explained with a smile.
"Is he not feeling well, or is he missing?" Suddenly, a sharp voice rang out from the crowd.
Tang Hongbo looked towards the source of the voice, but did not see anyone suspicious.
"What?" Missing? What exactly is going on? " The crowd below the stage suddenly burst into an uproar.
All kinds of discussions were like a sky full of gossip, pressing down so hard that Tang Hongbo was barely able to breathe. He looked down the stage and saw the mess of discussions, he originally wanted to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Secretary Wang.
"CEO, I can't leave now, if I leave now, then those people's thoughts will be confirmed, and the matter of Madam going missing, will be exposed. Think about it, a dignified lady of the President of the Tang Family going missing, just how big of a news would that be, if the kidnappers knew about this, what would happen if they tore off their votes?" Secretary Wang explained.
Tang Hongbo's face suddenly turned white. That's right, how could he have never thought that the consequences would be dire if the kidnapper really was tearing the tickets.
He admitted that he could not accept this fact.
"Boss Tang Judge, may I ask if Mrs. Tang is really missing?"
"Could that have something to do with the Sima family?"
"Excuse me, do you really not know where Mrs. Tang is?"
"If Mrs. Tang is truly missing, why are you still in the mood to be here? Does this mean that there are people asking all sorts of questions while you and Mrs. Tang are in the arena?" Tang Hongbo pretended to be calm as he suppressed the rage in his chest.
"Again, my wife isn't missing. She's just not feeling well." Tang Hongbo said.
"Really? I heard that Mrs. Tang is just an illegitimate daughter, is that true? "It was that sharp voice again.
"What's going on?" Tang Hongbo endured his anger and asked.
"Sorry, I'll have someone check it out right now." Secretary Wang said softly.
With regards to the matter that Duan Wenzhuo was just an illegitimate daughter, those reporters had already heard about it before. Some of the young intern reporters were secretly laughing. It looked like they had come to the right place today, as they had managed to dig up some good material.
Below the stage, Rong Xuan looked at Duan Wenyu in shock.
"You did this? It was you who leaked Duan Wenzhuo's disappearance to these reporters? " Rong Xuan asked.
But Duan Wenyu just snorted and did not answer Rong Xuan's question.
Rong Xuan watched as Duan Wenyu walked towards Old Man Tang step by step.
"Uncle Tang." Duan Wenyu shouted gently.
"Duan Wenzhuo?" Old Man Tang stared at Duan Wenyu, but after a second, he regained his senses.
"No, you are not Duan Wenzhuo, you are Wenyu?" Old Man Tang asked.
"Uncle, you haven't seen me for a long time, why would you mistake me for Wenzhuo?" Duan Wenyu covered her mouth and laughed.
"That's right, Wenyu, it's been a long time since I've seen you, you really look too similar to her. Uncle is too old, don't blame me." Old Man Tang sighed and said.
"How could that be? Uncle is still very young, it's just that I've grown up." Duan Wenyu said with a smile.
Although Old Man Tang didn't like Duan Wenzhuo, he had a good impression of him. After all, he had been playing with Tang Hongbo since childhood, so he could be considered the one who watched his grow up. It was just that he didn't know why he suddenly disappeared, which was quite a pity.
After all, she and Tang Hongbo had already been engaged at that time, and Tang Hongbo had disregarded the objections of the crowd and married Duan Wenzhuo, who was still an illegitimate child.
He was also angry for a long time, but he could not change Tang Hongbo's personality. Afterwards, he just let him go, and had been living a peaceful life for the past few years.
"Uncle, seeing the situation right now, these reporters will definitely let Hongbo go. If uncle agrees, then let me help Hongbo, what do you think?" Duan Wenyu asked with a smile.
"You, how are you going to help me?" Old Man Tang asked.
"You already mistook me for Wenzhuo just now, so I think that these reporters won't be able to tell what's going on between Wenzhuo and me. What's more, Uncle, everyone here is waiting to see a joke here, so we can let those people with ulterior motives make a big deal out of it, right?"
Duan Wenyu laughed with sincerity.
