Chapter 197: The press conference (1)

Outside the hospital, the entire media was causing a ruckus to get a glimpse of the Xiang and Liu family. For the whole day, both of the family guards were blocking the entrance.

Xiang Wei sighed. “We have to schedule a press conference. The truth is already leaked.”

Liu Chunhua expressed her worry. “This matter is delicate. We know how the media likes to twists things. The divorce, Jinhai and Nana’s marriage, and then Huian’s suicide attempt…they will surely try to insinuate baseless stories.”

Liu Hai said, “We have to tell the truth. How and why everything happened. After what Huian did, they will understand why we had to take such a step.”

Xiang Wei said, “I will tell Jinhai to set a press conference tonight.”

It was in the evening, and none of the media companies in Beijing dared to miss this conference. Every company sent the best of their reporters to dig out the truth. This was the biggest scandal of all time and the first-ever in Liu family.

The reporters were eagerly waiting for their entrance. Five minutes later, two cars entered the venue. Liu Hai and Jinhai got down from one and Xiang Wei from another.

The reporters tried to surround them and take some pictures, but the ever efficient Liu family guards were doing a fine job in blocking every one of them.

Assistant Xin was following behind Jinhai.

They took their seats. Liu Hai gave a slight nod. Assistant Xin came forward and said, “We will begin the press conference now.”

Nana, Liu Chunhua, Xiang Qingge, and Grandma Liu were gathered in the Liu villa watching the conference on television.

Nana was inwardly anxious about this meeting. She was only hoping that the reporters would not cause any trouble for Jinhai. She understood how vicious the media could get after how her past was shamed in public.

Yukito and Yukira were also beside their sister.

When Yukira saw Jinhai coming in, the morning’s terrifying incident came to his mind. He unconsciously shuddered. Only God knows in which horrible state he wrote his exam. The near-death experience almost caused him to faint. It still sent goosebumps across his skin.

Yukito tried to talk to him about some other stuff, but the only answer he got in return was his silence. He was in a daze for the entire day, and his usual cheerfulness was nowhere to be seen.

Yukira took a peek at Nana. He understood that what happened this morning was a clear warning to keep his mouth shut. That was the whole purpose of it. It was a demonstration of the possible consequence.

And he had no idea what he will do next.

At the press conference, reporters started with their questions.

“Mr. Liu Jinhai, it was already revealed in Chen banquet that Miss Xiang Huian tricked you into marrying her and also drugged you. What do you have to say about it?”

Liu Jinhai said, “She has betrayed my trust.”

“It is said that you had asked for a divorce many times.”

“Yes.”

“Did Miss Xiang agree?”

“No.”

Murmurs ensued between the reporters.

“Mr. Xiang Wei, what do you have to say about your daughter’s evil scheme?” A reporter asked, looking towards him.

There was a hint of anguish in his voice. “Yes, I’m disappointed in her. I never thought that she would go to such lengths.”

“What happened when Miss Xiang didn’t agree for divorce?”

Liu Hai said, “She pleaded for another chance, but how can we forgive her? Her betrayal was too much. Jinhai once again asked for a divorce. But then… She tried to threaten us with her life. She tried to cut herself.”

The reporters looked at each other, shocked.

“We had no choice but to back out at that time. But we couldn’t have let this go on forever. Which brings us to today.”

They waited.

“Jinhai wanted to wholeheartedly take responsibility for Nana for the night at Chen’s banquet.”

Responsibility? Meaning marriage?

“You mean to say…marry Miss Nana?”

“Yes.”

The reporters were struck with lightning.

“We tried to make Huian understand, but her mental state began to worsen after the banquet when Jinhai declared that he doesn’t want to live with her anymore.”

What? Xiang Huian was becoming mentally ill?

A reporter eagerly asked, “What do you mean?”

Liu Hai sighed. “She started talking to herself. Then suddenly, she would get angry for no reason and throw things around in a fit of rage. It was becoming difficult to handle her. She would still blame poor Nana for what happened in the banquet, even though it was clearly her fault. She would curse and humiliate her.”

This was big news! Xiang Huian got deranged.

Xiang Wei continued. “So, we created a plan to make her divorce Jinhai. We made her sign some fake papers in the pretext that it was for her benefit, and it will protect her marriage. But in reality, they were divorce papers.”

Everyone gasped sharply.

“Mr. Xiang Wei, you planned against your daughter?”

“Why didn’t you stand by your daughter’s side?”

“Are you fine breaking your relations with Liu family?”

“Will this affect the business between your families?”

Xiang Wei looked at them coldly. “Yes, it would have been easier to take my daughter’s side, but I cannot let her live a life where her husband doesn’t love her. It was better to separate. It is Liu family’s graciousness that they haven’t broken our friendship.”

Liu Hai faintly smiled.

The media present were looking flabbergasted at him. In the upper echelon, almost all families cover up their children’s mistakes. But Xiang Wei stood against his daughter and even helped Jinhai in marrying Nana!

This is a shame on those wealthy, biased parents. It is like a cruel slap on their faces.

“Jinhai and Nana immediately registered their marriage after the formalities were done.”

Boom!

This is such explosive news!

“Mr. Liu Jinhai and Miss Nana have got married!?”
