Extraordinary Soldier King in the City-Chapter 616: The Journalist’s Difficulties

After saying these words, Lu Xiaoyun’s face was filled with unwillingness, his teeth grinding noisily.

Honestly, before Elder Lu had arrived, there was no way he could have said that.

But he dared not defy his own father’s commands.

After all, Elder Lu had raised him since he was a boy, his kindness as heavy as a mountain.

And that was his biological father.

He had no choice but to comply.

From this, it was clear that Lu Xiaoyun was indeed a dutiful son.

However, something that puzzled Lu Xiaoyun was, why would his father speak up for Chen Feng like that?

How did the two of them get to know each other?

This left Lu Xiaoyun increasingly perplexed!

"Alright, I’ll go handle it right away!"

In contrast, Qiao Yue was naturally happy, as she didn’t want to completely fall out with Chen Feng.

So she hurried out of the hospital room to help Lu Xiaoyun with the discharge process.

To "handle" it was really just a matter of notifying the hospital.

So, it wasn’t long before Qiao Yue came back, looking at Lu Xiaoyun and saying, "Everything’s been taken care of, and the car is ready too. Let’s go!"

Lu Xiaoyun’s expression was somber as he nodded, then he hopped out of bed and walked toward the door of the hospital room.

Seeing this, Chen Feng’s lips curved slightly, and he left the hospital room along with Lori.

Outside the room, Lu Xiaoyun was trying to communicate with Elder Lu, trying to make him less angry.

But no matter what he said, Elder Lu simply ignored him.

It was not until Chen Feng and Lori came out that Elder Lu turned with a full smile and walked towards them, leaving Lu Xiaoyun completely behind.

This left Lu Xiaoyun utterly baffled.

Right now, he felt like he was the one picked up by Elder Lu, and Chen Feng was the real son!

"Xiaofeng, this time the fault lies with my son. Elder Lu would like to apologize to you on his behalf!"

Elder Lu looked at Chen Feng, full of apology.

"No worries, there’s no need for that, Elder Lu!"

Chen Feng smiled and waved his hand, then turned to look at Lori, "Lori, you go ahead and take Elder Lu for a stroll. It’s almost two o’clock, I need to rush back to the company!"

"Okay, sure!"

Lori nodded.

Seeing this, Chen Feng headed straight for the hospital’s main entrance.

As he passed by Lu Xiaoyun, Chen Feng stopped, looked at him, and said with a smile, "Let’s go, Lu the celebrity, need a lift?"

"Hmph, no need, I have my own car!"

Lu Xiaoyun snorted coldly, clearly disgruntled, then turned around and walked outside the hospital with Qiao Yue.

Chen Feng shook his head with a slight smile, and followed after, exiting the hospital...

At the Tianfeng Security Company, the scene of a press conference.

At this moment, there were only ten minutes left until the press conference began.

All the reporters had also arrived.

However, they had all received the inside scoop beforehand.

That was that Lu Xiaoyun would not be coming today at all.

So, they arrived mostly in the mood for a laugh, planning to get some material to exaggerate later in their reports.

This kind of business scandal was very attractive to them, especially since it involved the martial arts superstar Lu Xiaoyun, which was quite newsworthy!

They were ready to give Tianfeng Security a tough time at the press conference!

They naturally didn’t want to miss such a great opportunity.

In contrast to these reporters, Zhou Zheng was anxiously pacing, nearly tearing his hair out at this point!

Up until now, he hadn’t received another call from Chen Feng.

So he had absolutely no idea what was going on, and he didn’t know if Chen Feng could persuade Lu Xiaoyun to come back.

The news conference was about to start, and it was driving him crazy.

Time ticked away, and finally, it was two o’clock.

With no sign of Lu Xiaoyun or Chen Feng, Zhou Zheng had no choice but to steel himself and handle it on his own.

Zhou Zheng took a deep breath to calm himself down and then put on a smile as he faced the reporters.

He began by bowing to the journalists, saying with an apologetic face, "Thank you for coming, but we’ve run into a situation here, Lu Xiaoyun he..."

However, Zhou Zheng didn’t get to finish his sentence.

He was interrupted by a reporter from an evening newspaper.

The reporter bluntly asked, "President Zhou, why is Lu Xiaoyun not here?"

"I was just about to explain that, Lu Xiaoyun he..."

As Zhou Zheng replied, ready to provide an explanation,

his words were cut off once again by another reporter, this one from a TV station.

The TV reporter was also quite direct and said, "President Zhou, according to sources, today’s news conference is a hoax. You never hired Lu Xiaoyun as a spokesperson. In other words, Lu Xiaoyun never agreed to be your company’s brand ambassador. Is that true?"

"That’s absolutely nonsense. Our company has signed a contract with Lu Xiaoyun!"

Zhou Zheng’s expression darkened as he spoke very seriously.

"But then, why isn’t Lu Xiaoyun at today’s news conference? This is indeed very suspicious!"

Another media reporter joined in the questioning.

"Yes, if Lu Xiaoyun really signed a contract with your company, why wouldn’t he be present at such an important event?"

"Is your company doing this just for publicity?"

The reporters started to press harder with their questions.

Hearing this, Zhou Zheng became so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat.

He was at a loss for words.

Because no matter what he said, these reporters just needed to cling to the question, why Lu Xiaoyun wasn’t here.

That would render all of Zhou Zheng’s explanations weak and ineffective.

"President Zhou, you’ve been silent all this while. Are you admitting it by staying quiet?"

Seeing Zhou Zheng not responding, a reporter took the opportunity to ask.

"Did I ever say that I admitted it?"

Zhou Zheng shot the reporter a glance and retorted.

"Then please explain the questions we just asked!"

The reporter persisted.

"All I can say is, ’No comment!’"

At that moment, Zhou Zheng found himself unable to respond and could only say that.

Hearing this, the reporters exchanged glances with each other. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

They felt sure that the rumors must be true!

And so, they became even more aggressive in their questioning.

"President Zhou, since you are unable to provide a reasonable explanation, can we assume that your company is indeed just seeking publicity?"

One reporter stood up and pushed the microphone to Zhou Zheng’s mouth to ask.

Seeing this, other reporters also thrust their microphones in front of Zhou Zheng’s mouth.

Zhou Zheng, seeing this, frowned deeply, obviously pushed to the edge.

Because now, no matter how he tried to explain, it would be futile.

And later, it was very likely that these reporters would misrepresent the facts and sensationalize them in the news.

This left Zhou Zheng feeling helpless and, for a moment, unsure of how to respond.
