The School Beauty's Super Rogue-Chapter 247 - 245: Twists and Turns
Chapter 247: Chapter 245: Twists and Turns
Qin Wentian quickly waved his hand and shouted a few times for silence, finally controlling the almost out-of-control scene among the reporters below.
"Mr. Ye indeed acts straightforwardly, very good, bright and upright, even to the point of defaulting so openly, hahaha!"
Qin Wentian gave a sarcastic taunt, and then all the reporters followed suit with laughter. Qin Hao and Fang Zhenwu exchanged a smile, continuing to sit there steadily, watching coldly from the sidelines.
At this moment, all the favorable evidence was overwhelmingly leaning towards Qin Wentian. Meanwhile, the speeches by Fang Zhenwu and Qin Hao just now made some people who originally had doubts about the Qin Family all side with Qin Wentian.
It seemed that Qin Hao and the Fang Group were about to face credit collapse, bearing the infamy scorned by thousands.
Qin Wentian observed that all the groundwork was already sufficient. Now, it was time to push the atmosphere of this press conference to a climax.
He raised his hand, pressing down hard, and then with a serious expression, raised his voice to speak righteously, looking around the venue and loudly saying, "Everyone, please quiet down. I believe Mr. Ye and the Fang Group’s attitude has been seen by all."
"In that case, let the contract speak for itself!"
As he spoke, he gazed at a safe on the conference table that had been covered with a red cloth.
The whole venue fell silent, Qin Wentian reached out lightly, uncovering the red cloth, and then solemnly took out the key.
"Everyone, after the contract was signed that day, the original was sealed on the spot and stored in our Qin Group’s safe, never to be tampered with."
"Today is the first time it has been unsealed."
As he spoke, he displayed the key in his hand to all the reporters present. Qin Wuya was also beside him, taking out another key. Both of them, their expressions grave, placed their hands on the safe.
Four cameras pointed at the safe from every angle, with no blind spots, live broadcasting the process of this unveiling.
The safe’s protection was naturally first-class. Qin Wentian first entered the password, and then he and Qin Wuya each inserted a key into the two keyholes, turning them synchronously. With a click, the heavy safe door gently shook and then popped open a bit.
Everyone present held their breath in tension, watching the contents inside the safe intently.
Qin Wentian put on a pair of white gloves with care and then carefully took out an envelope from inside.
"Gentlemen, look, the seal is intact."
He presented it and then took an exquisite paper cutter, slicing open the thick manila envelope and taking out a bound contract.
Crackling flashes lit up densely, Qin Wentian placed the contract under the camera and then directly turned to the place of mutual seals, saying:
"Look here, the official seal of Fang Group, the personal seal of Fang Zhenwu, and Mr. Ye’s signature and handprint, all are complete."
Having said that, he looked towards Qin Hao and Fang Zhenwu, asking, "Mr. Ye and President Fang, do you need to come and verify to see if there are any questions?"
Qin Hao smiled slightly and said, "No need to look, it is indeed my signature, continue."
Certain of victory, Qin Wentian instead felt his mind steady. He smiled slightly and then publicly opened the first page of the contract, reading aloud beneath everyone’s gaze:
"After friendly negotiation between Party A and Party B, the following terms are specifically formulated for mutual compliance by both parties."
"Chapter One, Rights and Obligations of Parties A and B"
"Article 1, Fang Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Party A) has the right to unilaterally terminate the contract at any time without any liability for breach of contract."
"The powers described in the aforementioned terms, regardless of whether this contract is effective, regardless of both parties involved..."
Wait!
What the hell?
Am I seeing things?
After reading it the first time, Qin Wentian was first stunned, then widened his eyes and tried hard to look at this contract. However, the black and white text clearly matched every word he had just read out loud, with even the punctuation marks being accurate.
His hands suddenly trembled, and a bad feeling enveloped his heart!
The press conference venue also fell into a deathly silence.
The group of reporters even forgot to take photos, just quietly staring at Qin Wentian.
In the online live room of the Evening Financial News, the big screen clearly focused on the contract terms on the table, with every stroke distinctly visible.
The Patriarch Chen, having just sipped a mouthful of tea, looked at the contract terms on the screen and directly sprayed it out on the spot.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough, Xiaowang, quickly get me some paper!"
A young, beautiful maid immediately grabbed tissues and handed them over. He casually wiped the tea from his mouth, without bothering about anything else, his eyes fixed on the contract terms for careful study.
At the press conference scene, Qin Hao’s voice lightly sounded again, still so calm and idle, as if everything was under control, saying with a smile, "Chairman Qin, read on, continue to read, we are all waiting to hear."
Qin Wentian stood there dumbfounded, at that moment only feeling the blood on his head rushing up, the heart pounding with sharper and sharper pain, the tiny characters before his eyes gradually blurred into a mass, then twisted into little black insects, burrowing straight into his body.
"Cough, cough!"
Qin Wentian, unstable on his feet, collapsed into the chair, staring with eyes that had never felt so uncomfortable in his lifetime.
Qin Wuya, with a sour expression, immediately grabbed the contract, unwillingly flipping through it intensely dozens of times, muttering in a trance: "Impossible! This is impossible!"
"This contract is wrong, it’s not supposed to be like this, how can there be such terms!"
"This is fake......"
Qin Wuya, after all, left himself a last bit of rationality, not outright saying "this contract is fake" publicly but forced himself to swallow the words.
When the Qin Family decided to hold a press conference, Mr. Ye and Fang Zhenwu attended. The Qin Family declared they would announce the contract, Mr. Ye told them to announce as they wished. The Qin Family asked Mr. Ye to verify the authenticity of the seals on this contract, Mr. Ye said everything was real, perform as you like.
And now?
If the Qin Family were to claim that the contract is fake on the spot, I fear all the reporters present would rush up with cameras to make sure of it right here.
Damn it, even if I took the money, your Qin Family shouldn’t play people like this!
This very sentence had already appeared in unison in the minds of the two reporters from Qingshan City’s Evening Financial News.
Even though Qin Wuya did not outright say the contract was fake just now, the expression on his face had already been caught by all the media present.
Qin Hao’s mocking voice rang out again, piercing directly through, mercilessly asking, "Oh, Mr. Qin Wuya, you mean, there’s an issue with this contract? Are you trying to frame me?"
As Qin Hao’s words fell, there was a moment of silence among all the reporters present, and then it suddenly exploded.
With the real-time broadcast images, the websites, microblogs, and public platforms of various media instantly sorted out this explosive news, competing with each other to issue urgent push notifications!
On scene, reporters who were originally seated rushed to the front, numerous microphones and recorders directly pointed at Qin Wentian and Qin Wuya!
The current scene was completely out of control!
