Chapter 184 Conspiracy Theory



AX Group’s belated press conference was finally held.

The huge banquet hall was packed with reporters and media who had received the news. After all, it was about the controversy over the termination of the contract between the Dong family and AX some time ago. In addition to these journalists, many group leaders also came to see if they could get a share of the profits from this accident.

But what everyone didn't expect was that at the beginning of the press conference, not only did AX Group representative Su Yu come on stage, but also Dong Zicheng, the former head of Dong Group, and Chen Xu in a wheelchair.

"First of all, thank you all for your concern for the AX Group project. The recent scandals surrounding the Dong Group have had a significant negative impact on the project. However, after a detailed investigation over the past few days, we have discovered that none of the previous scandals and tax evasion incidents have anything to do with Chen Xu or Mr. Dong Zicheng, the previous head of the Dong family.

So after discussion, our group has decided to give Chen Xu, and the current Dong Group, a chance. Mr. Chen's proposal was always approved by our entire group! We will not bury such a talented person just because Chen Ziqiu, the former wife of the Dong family, made a mistake. Next, we would like to invite Mr. Dong Zicheng, the current representative of the Dong Group, to provide a detailed report on the final outcome of this incident.

Su Yuyi finished his righteous speech, closed the topic in front of him, and looked in the direction of Dong Zicheng, indicating that it was his home court next.

In fact, when Chen Xu first learned about the current result, he was also very surprised. After all, when this matter was first discussed, it was said that this project was just a warm-up for the subsequent plans, and he was also told that the cooperation would eventually fail.

Now that everything was settled, the dust had settled. The cooperation that was supposed to end suddenly became a reality. That day, Jiang Luoning and Dongfang Han went to the hospital, and in addition to visiting them, they brought him this unbelievable news.

Chen Xu also asked Su Yu for confirmation in disbelief, and received the same answer. Not only were they grateful for Chen Xu's efforts in this matter, but also because his design plan was indeed excellent.

Just as Su Yu said, real talents should not be buried, so this cooperation deservedly resumed as normal.

After being nursed back by Ah Xing, Dong Zicheng's health has recovered a lot and he can at least walk normally now. However, his complexion is still different from that of an ordinary person and he looks particularly haggard.

He looked at the crowd whispering in the audience, and suddenly felt uneasy. The last time he experienced such a scene seemed to be when he was controlled and announced his abdication. But now he could actually return to the public eye again and speak on behalf of Dong Group in front of so many people. His hands began to tremble with nervousness.

But the next second, he felt warmth on the back of his palm. He looked down and saw that it was Chen Xu's palm on it, as if to support him and encourage him to take control of his life again.

"Everyone, I am the current head of the Dong family—Dong Zicheng. I would like to take this opportunity today to solemnly respond to the previous negative news about the Dong family.

First, I admit that Dong Siqing is not the biological daughter of the Dong family; I was kept in the dark about this matter. Chen Xu was also adopted by us, and I was unaware of his relationship with Dong Siqing. This was all Chen Ziqiu's own decision. She and I have already completed the divorce procedures. She no longer has any relationship with us, the Dong family, and Dong Siqing will live with her.

Chen Xu has been close to me since childhood, and he was unaware of what Chen Ziqiu had done. After learning the truth, he was extremely disappointed and cooperated with relevant departments to make amends for his mistakes in a timely manner.

Secondly, I want to announce that from today onwards, Chen Xu will officially change his name to Dong Xu, and will also be included in the Dong family tree. In the future, he will become the next head of the Dong family."

Before he finished speaking, the people below were whispering. Some applauded Dong Zicheng for his selfless act, while others said that he was heartless and ungrateful, and had no regard for the years of marriage and care he had given her. But Dong Zicheng didn't care about these. He only hoped not to drag Chen Xu into this ethical dispute. As for himself, he didn't care what others said about him.

But Chen Xu didn't think so. After hearing those malicious speculations about his father, he could no longer sit still. He knocked heavily on the table a few times, and the hall immediately returned to calm. Chen Xu picked up the microphone on the stand and walked to the center of the stage in full view of everyone.

"I'm sure everyone is very curious about my father's decision. I hear that your opinions on this incident are even more diverse, but I hope you can listen to my explanation of the whole story before making any judgments."

Hearing this, Dong Zicheng felt a little uneasy. He was afraid that what Chen Xu said would affect his future path. After all, he was almost fifty years old, and his image in the eyes of others was not that important. But Chen Xu was different. He was still young, and with his own talents, he would definitely achieve great things in the future. He should not be delayed because of him.

But before he could step forward to stop her, he found that his arm was held by Su Yu. Facing the woman's confident eyes, Dong Zicheng had a trace of doubt. Before he could ask, he heard the woman say in a soft voice: "Trust him, he will handle everything well."

Chen Xu also looked at the two people sitting there, responded to them with an affirmative and confident look, and then said:

"Perhaps you feel today that my father and I are sacrificing our own family for the greater good, or perhaps you're questioning whether we're really using Ms. Chen as a scapegoat. Next, let me show you some data."

After that, the big screen lit up, showing a lot of project data, including those tax evasion projects that had been exposed before. It was not difficult to find that they all happened after Dong Zicheng was bedridden. At that time, Chen Xu himself was only fifteen or sixteen years old. As the data scrolled on the screen, Chen Xu's voice of explanation sounded again.
