Jessie reacted incredibly quickly. Upon hearing Yin Cheng's words, she immediately exclaimed, "So this Miss Gu has some kind of mental problem!"
"Ah, this..."
Yin Cheng was stunned.
He was just being overly protective of his daughter. He was upset when he heard Gu Zihan scolding Jiang Mianmian, which is why he suggested having a psychiatrist examine her. He didn't actually say that Gu Zihan had mental problems.
"Dean Yin, I understand!" Jessie was overjoyed and winked at him. "Miss Gu has mental problems. She got something to smear on her face and is trying to frame our brand!"
Yin Cheng was speechless: "I didn't say that..."
"So how can you believe what a mentally ill person says?"
“Uh…” Yin Cheng’s eyes widened.
This is the first time in my life I've met someone with such medical logic.
"Thank you, Dean Yin! I'll go back and report right away!" Jessie bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle, her face beaming with smiles.
"Hey, no..."
"Don't worry, Dean Yin!" Jessie is a shrewd person and knows what to say and what not to say. "I'll go back and have a meeting with the public relations department right now. We guarantee that we will absolutely not involve you or your hospital in this!"
Yin Cheng looked helpless and quietly closed the medical record.
Upon hearing Jessie's words, Gu Zihan began to hurl insults again, even more fiercely than before.
Jessie remained calm, took out her phone and started recording, capturing all of Gu Zihan's embarrassing moments. Afterwards, she smiled with satisfaction and turned to leave.
"Dean Yin," the assistant beside him asked softly, "do we still need to call the head of the psychiatry department?"
Yin Cheng wore a look that was both funny and exasperated.
If LC wants to continue to survive in Southeast Asia, it dares not offend the Yin family, so what the female agent said earlier must be true—they will not involve the Yin family.
Therefore, Jiang Mianmian can remain unscathed in this matter.
As for Gu Zihan and Xia Zhi, those messy people and messy things are none of the Yin family's business.
"No need," Yin Cheng said softly. "After you get the test results, call Jessie and I'll treat her to coffee."
The assistant did as instructed.
When Yin Cheng arrived at the agreed-upon coffee shop that afternoon, she checked her phone and saw that LC's powerful public relations team had already removed the trending topic and reversed the narrative. The video of Gu Zihan going crazy had been uploaded, and public opinion began to turn in LC's favor, saying that the century-old brand had been ruined by a mentally ill person.
However, the press release made no mention of "Yin Family Hospital" or any unrelated individuals.
Yin Cheng smiled gently, strolled into the coffee shop, and sat down opposite Jessie.
“Miss Jessie,” he said, getting straight to the point and showing the test results, “although the storm has temporarily subsided, there are some truths I still have to tell you.”
"After testing, it was found that this bottle of face cream did contain a fungus that causes skin ulcers. My report is exactly the same as the one issued by the forensic doctor."
Jessie's expression froze, her brow furrowing. "No...it's impossible! LC has a century-old reputation, uses only natural raw materials, and is very willing to spend money on costs. There's no way we could have this kind of fungus!"
“That’s right,” Yin Cheng continued, “I had someone buy another bottle, and the test results were different. Only this bottle had it, the others didn’t.”
Jessie let out a long sigh, pondered for a moment, and then looked up and asked, "Could someone be sabotaging us? Is it our competitor trying to frame us?"
“I don’t know about that,” Yin Cheng said in a deep voice. “Miss Xia, who bought this face cream, is still giving a statement at the police station. But I think we shouldn’t make a big deal out of this. Miss Xia is just a student with an innocent background, and she might be acting under someone’s orders.”
Jessie thought for a moment and nodded vigorously.
“I understand. I promise this matter ends here and won't cause any further trouble. But the investigation still needs to be conducted. I suspect someone colluded with us to get a bottle of the problematic face cream! So…”
Jessie took out her phone and instructed her subordinates, "Pull up the duty-free shop's surveillance footage... Yes, the footage from the last few days, check it carefully!"

Central City, a private club.
Lu Ming was furious. He threw a crystal ashtray violently against the wall, where it shattered into pieces with a loud crash.
"Sir..." The man in black bowed obsequiously before him, cautiously observing his expression, "Sir, what about Xia Zhi..."
"This useless thing!" Lu Ming roared.
He had his men make several phone calls to contact lawyers, and after many twists and turns, they finally got through to the police station in Southeast Asia, managing to get a few minutes of talk time.
Upon hearing that it was Lu Ming, Xia Zhi's voice trembled immediately: "Mr. Lu, please save me..."
"You piece of trash!" Lu Ming yelled into the phone, "You're completely brainless! How could you come up with such a lousy trick!"
Xia Zhi's voice choked with sobs, and she soon broke down in tears.
"Even if you're going to ruin her, at least do it somewhere secluded! Now look what you've done, sending her face cream so openly and blatantly, not only did you fail to harm her, but you've also dragged the Gu family and LC into this! How much trouble are you trying to cause me?!"
Xia Zhi remained silent, terrified.
She admitted that she was blinded by jealousy and acted without consulting Lu Ming. But she never expected Gu Zihan to interfere!
"Alright, stop crying! You're fucking annoying!"
Lu Ming loosened his tie and said impatiently, "You got lucky this time. The LC people shifted the blame to Gu Zihan, saying she had mental problems... Ha, otherwise, you would have spent your whole life in jail in Southeast Asia!"
After saying that, Lu Ming hung up the phone in a huff. The man in black stepped forward, lit a cigarette for him, and asked softly, "Is Xia Zhi still around?"
Lu Ming narrowed his eyes.
Keep them. This kind of intelligence, which is more trouble than it's worth, is really a headache.
But what if he doesn't keep him? He can't find someone he'd be comfortable with anytime soon.
In Jiangzhou, it would be quite easy for Xia Zhi to get close to the real Lu Xiaoyou.
Lu Ming let out a long breath and said in a low voice, "Keep her... but don't rush to get her out. Let her suffer in there for a few days and learn a lesson!"
"yes!"
The man in black bowed, pulled his baseball cap down further, and prepared to leave immediately.
However, as soon as the door opened, the man was startled!
"Miss Lu...?"
Hearing the commotion, Lu Ming turned around.
Lu Ran stood at the doorway, her large eyes fixed on the inside, her small hands gripping the hem of her skirt tightly, her face slightly pale.
"Ranran?" Lu Ming's expression changed, a shadow crossing his eyes. "What are you doing here?"
