Chapter 622 Adding fuel to the fire

The president's office of the Huo Group.

The atmosphere is depressing and gloomy.

The secretary stood at the desk, reporting the latest situation to Huo Dongcheng with a serious expression: "The reporter who initially reported the incident was instructed by Lin Jiamin. Unexpectedly, Mr. Bai's affairs were dug up, and Fu Zheng took advantage of the situation to add fuel to the fire and confuse people."

Drag everyone into the water.

Huo Dongcheng's face was calm, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

The secretary noticed the change in Huo Dongcheng's expression and lowered his head unconsciously, waiting nervously for his instructions.

"Can the heat be suppressed?" Huo Dongcheng asked.

"It's difficult. Unless all platforms forcibly delete posts and ban comments, it will only cause rebellion." The secretary replied carefully.

"Then let's divert our attention first." Huo Dongcheng twirled his fingers. "How did Lin Jiamin get involved with this old man? I'm sure everyone will be very interested."

It was true that he hated Fu Qingyue.

But Lin Jiamin took the initiative and made his private affairs with his mother public, clearly exploiting him and the Bai family. Did she treat him as if he were dead?!

Originally, Lin Jiamin didn't have to do anything. He would definitely help her and make it impossible for Fu Qingyue to turn over.

It’s a pity that Lin Jiamin doesn’t want this opportunity.

Now, everyone is staring at the results of the forensic appraisal, making it difficult to intervene.

"Yes." The secretary responded quickly.

The office fell into silence.

Huo Dongcheng stared at the table in a trance, his expression gloomy.

The secretary didn't dare to breathe and asked weakly, "Mr. Huo, is there anything else? If not, I'll leave first."

Huo Dongcheng pondered for a moment, then waved to his secretary, signaling him to come closer.

The secretary stepped forward with a puzzled look on his face.

Huo Dongcheng said, "If Lin Jiamin's identity is exposed, it will inevitably implicate Wen Liang and her father. You should keep an eye on her and make sure that no comments affect her. Even if they are mentioned, she will still be a victim."

"Understood." The secretary nodded immediately.

"Go ahead."

The secretary responded and left the office impatiently.

Huo Dongcheng leaned back in his chair, looking at the comments of netizens on the computer screen with a sarcastic smile on his face.

Just then, the phone suddenly rang.

Huo Dongcheng picked up the phone, and a steady male voice came from the receiver: "Hello? Are you free? If you're not busy, see you at the usual place for a drink."

"I'll be there soon, wait for me."

Twenty minutes later, in the luxurious box of Qianshi Club in a bustling district.

Huo Dongcheng pushed open the heavy door of the box and walked in.

The lighting in the box is soft and the atmosphere is luxurious and comfortable.

Bai Jiyu was sitting on the sofa, holding a charming and beautiful woman with heavy makeup in his arms, and they were very affectionate with each other.

Seeing Huo Dongcheng come in, he smiled and said, "I thought you were busy dealing with those things and didn't have time to come."

Huo Dongcheng walked into the box, sat down on the sofa, and responded in a relaxed tone: "It's not a big deal."

Bai Jiyu sighed and said jokingly, "I never thought that my dad would be implicated even after being in prison for so long. Have you investigated? Who did it?"

"Lin Jiamin. How is your uncle now?"

"I just visited him a few days ago. Everything else is fine, except that his old health problems have come back."

“Will it have a big impact on the project?”

"Not big, just like flies, annoying." Bai Jiyu's eyes were cold. "I heard from the people below that some people were making random calls to report and complain. I asked them to stop working first."

"There are too many people following the trend online. Don't worry about it. After these few days, the number of people paying attention will naturally decrease."

"Yes, Mr. Bai, why bother worrying about those irrelevant people? Come, Xiaolu will feed you some wine."

The beautiful woman in his arms spoke in a sweet voice, smiled charmingly, picked up the goblet and handed it to Bai Jiyu.

Bai Jiyu smiled, reached out and patted the woman's buttocks, and took a sip of wine.

"Xiao Lu, go and pour a glass of wine for Mr. Huo."

"yes."

Xiao Lu responded and was about to stand up when she heard Huo Dongcheng say, "No need."

"Okay, I just asked someone to get two bottles of 40-year-old brandy from Australia. You can try them later." Bai Jiuyu hugged Xiaolu back.

"Thank you."

"Dongcheng, I heard you have an extra child. What's going on?" Bai Jiyu raised an eyebrow and asked jokingly, "Our President Huo is known for his chastity. When did he start having children outside?"

Huo Dongcheng smiled faintly and said vaguely, "It's a long story."

Just as Bai Jiyu was about to say something else, there was a knock on the door, followed by the waiter's voice, "Mr. Bai, the brandy you ordered is here."

"Enter."

As soon as he finished speaking, a uniformed waiter came in with a tray and placed it steadily on the table. "Mr. Bai, do you need me to open the bottle for you?"

Hearing the voice, Huo Dongcheng looked over.

"Open it now."

The waiter skillfully opened the bottle with a corkscrew.

Bai Jiyu couldn't help but look at her carefully, "Are you new here? I haven't seen you before."

"yes."

Xue Jun smiled politely and replied, "Yes, Mr. Bai. I'm new here and this is my first time serving you."

"What's your name?"

"Xue Jun, everyone calls me Xiao Jun."

"Xiaojun, do you know him?" Bai Jiuyu raised his chin towards Huo Dongcheng.

Xue Jun followed his gaze, exchanged glances with Huo Dongcheng, and lowered his head, "I don't know him."

"This is Mr. Huo from the Huo Group. Pour this for Mr. Huo."

"yes."

Xue Jun smoothly poured the amber liquid into the cup and respectfully handed it to Huo Dongcheng, saying, "Mr. Huo, please."

"Dongcheng, try it."

"Um."

Huo Dongcheng took the wine glass and shook it gently, and the faint aroma of grapes and alcohol was fully released in the glass.

He took a sip and said, "It's really good."

"Mr. Bai, if there's nothing else, I'll go down." Xue Jun said.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Bai Jiyu smiled and said, "Have a drink with Mr. Huo."

Xue Jun glanced at Huo Dongcheng.

Huo Dongcheng said, "No need, you can go down."

"Dongcheng, I saw you staring at her just now, and I thought you liked her." Bai Jiyu teased jokingly, with a hint of teasing in his tone.

Huo Dongcheng just smiled faintly and didn't respond.

Seeing this, Xue Jun politely retreated and gently closed the door of the box.

Silence between the two of them returned to the box again.

Bai Jiyu picked up his wine glass, shook it gently, and stared deeply at the closed door.

"Mr. Bai," Xiaolu said coquettishly, "Are you attracted to Xiaojun? Why don't you ask her to stay and drink with you?"

"Don't you have me here?" Bai Jiyu said with a smile, "With Xiaolu here, Xiaojun is useless."

Looking at the two people flirting as if no one was around, Huo Dongcheng stood up and walked out.

"What are you going to do, Dongcheng?"

"I have something to do. I'm leaving now."

Coming out of the box, Huo Dongcheng walked towards the elevator. When he passed the small kitchen, he met Xue Jun coming out with a fruit plate.

"Mr. Huo." Xue Jun smiled at him and greeted him.

"The old man is so stingy, but he still lets you work here?" Huo Dongcheng glanced at her lightly, with a serious scrutiny.
