Chapter 1446: The Boss is Very Angry

Qin Yiyan wore a look of disdain and scoffed, "These idiots, they're actually quick to react this time!"

"Then, should we launch a counterattack?"

"Of course. The Wang Family's image is damaged and their reputation is sliding; they will certainly lose quite a few business partnerships. You have people keep an eye on them—if we can snatch them, we snatch them."

"Yes."

"And snatch them at the lowest possible price!"

"Is this... to control costs?"

"No, I want to piss those bastards in the Wang Family to death!!"

Qin Yiyan's answer... shocked Lin Ze.

In his impression, his boss was clever, wise, and calm.

But at this moment?

He was a bit childish.

It was enough to see that his boss was truly, very, angry!

Even angrier than when he first found out the Wang Family members were framing him!!

He had even somewhat lost his reason!!

But what was the point of his boss's anger?

Just because they said his wife was living apart from him, and hinted that their relationship wasn't good?

This hypothesis made Lin Ze reveal a profound and inscrutable expression.

Lin Ze secretly sized up Qin Yiyan's dark face, then prompted, "I think the best way to counter the Wang Family is still for you to explain it in person. If the Madam could come forward... the effect would be even better."

As long as the husband and wife appear together, all the rumors will collapse without a fight.

The Wang Family wouldn't even have a chance to play dirty tricks in the end.

But Qin Yiyan refused without even thinking: "Xin'ai cannot be dragged into this."

Lin Ze didn't want his boss to give up such a good opportunity, so he continued to lobby: "Quickly ending the rumors is also beneficial to the Madam. Besides, it's just appearing together to show some affection; it's not difficult."

"But... where are we affectionate? Fake is fake."

Qin Yiyan suddenly reined in his hostility.

Instead, he let out a melancholy sigh.

This reaction of his made Lin Ze scratch his head, wondering why his boss had so little confidence in himself.

Besides, the Madam's attitude toward her husband had changed recently; perhaps if he talked to her, she might agree to help.

Lin Ze wanted to continue lobbying.

But Qin Yiyan stopped him: "In short, you are not allowed to drag Xin'ai into this!"

Seeing his boss's volatile mood, Lin Ze didn't dare to bring it up again.

He gave a response and then silently left.

Outside the door, Lin Ze couldn't help but sigh.

He thought to himself that his boss had arranged a "hard mode" for himself.

But his boss's wishes could not be defied, so Lin Ze could only guard strictly to prevent the Wang Family from finding any loopholes.

But what was the point of trying so hard to defend?

The subsequent trend of public opinion went completely off-track, all revolving around topics of Qin Yiyan and Liu Xin'ai.

Some even came up with conspiracy theories, saying that flies don't bite seamless eggs, and it was precisely because the relationship between Qin Yiyan and his wife was bad that he would seek intimacy with Wang Yaran.

This was simply ridiculous!

Yet those spreading the rumors precisely grasped the mentality and preferences of the onlookers, making the gossip grow increasingly intense and causing matters to develop in a direction unfavorable to Qin Yiyan.

This gave Lin Ze a headache; he wondered where the Wang Family found such a PR expert—their ability to turn black into white was truly first-class!

In order to deal with these waves of mindless comments, Lin Ze continuously launched counterattacks.

Unfortunately, it was a drop in the bucket.

None of it could fundamentally solve the problem.

Instead, it made the staff handling the matter more exhausted than ever.

After another round of overtime, Lin Ze drove Qin Yiyan home.

When he was leaving, he happened to run into Liu Xin'ai coming out of the house in sportswear.

Seeing Lin Ze, Liu Xin'ai greeted him a bit stiffly and explained: "I... came out for a night run."

Lin Ze responded with a smile: "Exercising more is good; it can relieve fatigue."

"But your complexion... is quite tired. What is it, have you been busy lately?"

Lin Ze continued to smile: "Not just busy; there have been some matters at the company recently that are quite tricky."

"Is it... the Wang Family's framing?"

"You know about it too?"

Liu Xin'ai nodded lightly and asked: "Didn't you counterattack with a video? Why is it still hard to resolve?"

When the conversation reached this point, Lin Ze finally reined in his smile.

He looked toward the direction of the Qin Family residence before lowering his voice and saying cautiously: "That is because someone is using the boss's marital relationship to make a fuss, attempting to confuse the public!"

Marital relationship...

Wasn't that her relationship with Qin Yiyan?

Liu Xin'ai had also been following the news; she thought Qin Yiyan was letting it be because he had a backup plan.

She didn't expect...

Liu Xin'ai frowned slightly and said in confusion: "They are all fake news; it shouldn't be hard to solve."

"It is indeed not difficult, but there is a convenient method, yet the boss refuses to use it and insists on struggling with it."

"Why?"

Lin Ze glanced at Liu Xin'ai and said, "Because the boss does not want to drag you into this."

Liu Xin'ai was stunned, but slowly, she seemed to understand something.

Lin Ze, however, regretted saying those words just now; he checked his watch and said respectfully, "It is getting late, so I will head back now."

Seeing that Lin Ze was about to leave, Liu Xin'ai hurriedly stopped him and asked, "What plans does Qin Yiyan have?"

"You are referring to..."

"Counterattacking the Wang Family."

"He will hold a press conference to personally explain the ins and outs of the matter."

He is going to explain it personally?

Liu Xin'ai thought for a moment, and she asked with some urgency, "Will he even talk about the part regarding his father?"

This question left Lin Ze confused: "Regarding the old master... which part?"

Seeing Lin Ze's reaction, it was clear that he did not know the full inside story.

In that case, would Qin Yiyan reveal what Qin Chao had done?

If he really said it, the crisis could be perfectly resolved.

But the Qin Family would completely become a laughingstock!

Whether it was Qin Yiyan or Chi Rong, they would both be very distressed...

Thinking of such an outcome, Liu Xin'ai felt very uncomfortable in her heart as well.

Seeing Liu Xin'ai's worried expression, Lin Ze comforted her: "Madam, do not be troubled; the master will resolve this perfectly."

"This isn't a perfect resolution; it's mutual destruction."

"Huh?"

Liu Xin'ai did not explain; after a sigh, she urged: "Take good care of Qin Yiyan, and work hard together."

"Understood."

Lin Ze replied, then watched as Liu Xin'ai ran away from in front of him.

But not even three seconds later, Liu Xin'ai circled back.

She said somewhat awkwardly: "Um... give me the time and location of the meeting."

Why does Madam want this? Could it be...

A hypothesis popped into Lin Ze's mind, and this hypothesis made his eyes light up!

He hurriedly told Madam the time and address, thinking to himself that the boss would definitely be happy when he saw Madam!!

But afterwards... would the boss punish him?

Lin Ze began to worry in hindsight.

Unfortunately, what was done was done; he now only hoped that the boss could use this opportunity to reconcile with Madam.

That way...

He could turn from a leaker into a meritorious official!

On the day of the press conference—

Lin Ze had not revealed anything about Liu Xin'ai to Qin Yiyan.

And one of the reasons he didn't tell him was because Liu Xin'ai hadn't said she would definitely show up.

If this caused the boss to have his hopes dashed for nothing... how miserable would the boss feel?
