Ch 172: A Disorganized Mob

Slap—

Lying on the bed, Bai Yi slapped his thigh.

“What kind of consciousness is this? Is it saying it’s me!?”

Perhaps Bai Yi’s voice was too loud; it woke Chu Tingting, who was still asleep.

Because last night Chu Tingting and Bai Yi worked until late at night, but her physical condition, of course, couldn’t compare to Bai Yi who absorbed spiritual light.

After all, the two cleaning the house late at night wasn’t an easy task.

（Thinking wrong.）

At the same time, Bai Yi also received a call from Wu Haotian. Wu Haotian anxiously said on the phone: “Brother, did you see the news?”

“Of course I saw it. I’ve become a ‘wicked farmer’,” Bai Yi said with a helpless expression.

At this time, the two burst into laughter on the phone.

Bai Yi said: “Are my documents with your secretary? I’ll go get them later, just in case more law enforcement officers come looking for me.”

Actually, the last time Bai Yi asked Wu Haotian to help register two companies, he had already completed all the necessary documents, including the crucial food safety certificate.

Wu Haotian excitedly said: “No need, I’ll send them back to you this afternoon. I have a press conference in a bit. Humph, those old geezers still want to fight me! This time I’ll let them know, why the flowers are so red!”

“Bai Yi, who is it!” Chu Tingting, still groggy, sat up.

Bai Yi awkwardly pulled the blanket behind her up and draped it over her.

“Damn it! Sorry, brother, I’m interrupting, I’m interrupting.”

After saying that, Wu Haotian quickly hung up the phone.

Bai Yi smiled slightly, put down his phone, and softly said: “So considerate.”

Yah!

Chu Tingting jumped in surprise.

After all, Wu Haotian wasn’t someone to be trifled with. How could he let the matter rest after being so slandered by his competitors?

Possessing evidence, he quickly contacted several mainstream media outlets, preparing to hold a press conference on the matter.

Because the Wu Meng Hotel incident made a big fuss, the media naturally wouldn’t let go of such a hot topic.

Of course, in addition to mainstream media, some new media video platforms also sent reporters to participate in this press conference.

Soon, under the strong operation of the Wu Meng Hotel’s public relations department, these reporters arrived at the press conference venue.

Of course, Manager Zhang and others also secretly sent people to attend this press conference.

After all the media arrived, Wu Haotian swaggered out, accompanied by his tall and elegant secretary, Xiao Li.

However, before Wu Haotian could speak, the media rushed to ask: “Manager Wu, what are your thoughts on this incident? Did someone inside your hotel give the wicked farmer a backdoor?”

“Was the purchase of vegetables without food safety certificates your personal order?”

“Will the Wu Meng Group give us consumers a reasonable explanation today?”

Facing these frenzied reporters, Wu Haotian, who had seen many such situations, was not at all intimidated. He directly said to them: “Everyone, don’t worry, let’s take questions one by one. I will answer everyone’s questions truthfully.”

Seeing that the media had calmed down somewhat, Wu Haotian cleared his throat and said: “First, I thank everyone present for coming, and I’m also glad for everyone’s concern about our hotel. Today I will do my best to answer everyone’s questions, but we need to ask them in an orderly manner.”

These reporters were not attending such a press conference for the first time, so everyone understood the rules.

Seeing the reporters below raising their hands one after another, Wu Haotian randomly pointed to one.

The reporter quickly stood up and said: “Did your hotel purchase vegetables from a wicked farmer named Bai Yi?”

Wu Haotian smiled and said: “Mr. Bai is not a wicked farmer, but our hotel did indeed purchase ingredients from him, including the recently popular free-range chicken and duck.”

“Does he have a food safety certificate? Or any relevant documentation?”

The most important question came. Several reporters were already preparing to refute Wu Haotian.

After all, the information they received was that this Mr. Bai had no such documents.

“Friends from the media, the ingredients we purchased from Mr. Bai absolutely have no safety issues, and the taste is also guaranteed.”

In fact, Wu Haotian’s statement was evading the reporter’s question.

But these media outlets, not getting the answers they wanted, certainly wouldn’t let it go.

“Manager Wu didn’t directly answer my question. Did you purchase ingredients without food safety certificates?”

Unknowingly, several reporters began to smile.

In a certain club, several people were also watching this press conference via livestream.

But when these people saw Wu Haotian’s evasive answers, smiles appeared on their corners.

Just as the media pressed him again, Wu Haotian subtly signaled to Xiao Li, his secretary.

Xiao Li quickly took out several certificates from her briefcase and displayed them to all the reporters.

“Everyone, these are all the documents of our ingredient supplier, Mr. Bai. Please check.”

Having said that, Bai Yi stepped back two steps.

The reporters swarmed forward, taking pictures of the documents.

Several reporters arranged by Manager Zhang also squeezed in.

However, when they saw the documents, each of them showed displeased expressions.

Click click click.

Flashes kept flashing.

Now, in that certain club, everyone’s eyes were on one person.

This person was the one who investigated Wu Meng Hotel and Bai Yi.

“This shouldn’t be, this shouldn’t be, I investigated! He doesn’t have these documents! He doesn’t!”

“He doesn’t! You old bastard, do you know how much money I spent hiring reporters!?”

“Exactly, do you know how much money I spent on those media outlets to smear Wu Meng Hotel?”

“I think you’re in cahoots with Wu Haotian! I remember the last time we had dinner together, you seemed to be chatting with Wu Haotian a lot.”

“That’s right, I saw it too. You were laughing and talking with Wu Haotian in the corridor.”

Facing everyone’s accusations, the man hurriedly explained: “How could I be colluding with Wu Haotian? Besides, after drinking last time, I only discussed some aspects of corporate development; nothing else!”

“Discussed development! Go to hell!” A person who spent a lot of money to buy off the media was now completely unwilling. He slapped the man across the face.

Because his action was too big, and the room was too small, the slap landed on someone else.

Yah yah, I’m going!

My shoe! My shoe! Ouch ouch!

For a time, they started fighting. Teacups and tea bowls were smashed all over the floor.

It proved that a group of rabble couldn’t do anything.
