At this moment, he leaned against the elevator wall, his eyes closed, his heart filled with exhaustion.
"Zhao Lili, Zhao Lili, what exactly do you want..."
This sentence kept swirling in his mind.
When he opened his eyes again, the elevator had already arrived at its destination.
Lin Yuan walked towards his office.
Upon entering the office, he gently massaged his temples to calm himself.
Zhao Lili's words kept echoing in his mind, impacting his brain again and again.
It makes it difficult for him to concentrate on thinking.
Lin Yuan frowned.
Finally, he reached for his phone on the table and dialed his assistant's number.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, how can I help you?"
"Prepare a press conference platform in front of the company immediately!"
"Okay, Mr. Lin."
"Also, check Zhao Lili's recent movements and see what she's up to."
"Okay, Mr. Lin, I'll take care of it right away."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yuan leaned back in his chair and sighed.
Zhao Lili's recent trouble-making is by no means accidental.
I used to be indifferent to him, and I even had to remind him of his birthday.
But today I know where he works?
The idea that you'd actually become more emotional after breaking up? Nobody would believe that!
Zhao Lili, what exactly do you want?
Whatever you want to do, I won't let you succeed.
Downstairs at the company, Zhao Lili was driven away by security guards.
She stood on the street opposite the company building, watching Lin Yuan walk into the building, her eyes filled with resentment.
Hearing Mr. Lin's voice coming from the building again and again, he gritted his teeth in anger.
Lin Yuan, do you think you can get rid of me like this?
I won't let you get away with this!
Just wait and see.
She turned to the people around her and said, "Go post online and expose everything that happened today. We must ruin Lin Yuan's reputation!"
"Okay!" the group responded and immediately split up to get to work.
As Zhao Lili watched them leave, a sinister smile crept across her face.
"Everyone else, follow me!"
She and a group of people were waiting in a nearby coffee shop.
Before long, everything was ready.
Lin Yuan walked towards the press conference platform that had already been set up outside the company gate.
Several strong security guards stood around the podium, ready to maintain order.
Lin Yuan climbed onto the stage step by step, holding a huge megaphone tightly in his hand.
At this moment, he looked down at Zhao Lili and the crowd behind her as they walked towards him.
His face showed no sign of panic, but rather an air of composure and sternness.
Zhao Lili's appearance brought the performance to a climax.
He had to end this farce as quickly as possible.
Zhao Lili pointed at Lin Yuan and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Look at him! He drives such an expensive sports car and runs a company, yet he abandoned me and the children! He's a heartless bastard!"
Hearing this, Lin Yuan's eyes showed a hint of disdain.
He looked around, his voice calm yet firm.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Ms. Zhao's performance was brilliant, but I think you should hear the whole truth."
Lin Yuan began to recount what had happened.
“Ms. Zhao and I had a relationship, but we broke up several months ago because of the bride price issue. As for the ‘child’ she mentioned, it is a biological child, not my unborn child.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Lili immediately interrupted him.
"You heartless scumbag! The child is gone, and you won't even show your face!"
Lin Yuan's sneer intensified.
He continued, "Ms. Zhao, you'd better make things clear. I admit that you once told me you were pregnant, but you've been hiding the truth about the child's father."
Zhao Lili's face turned pale instantly, and she said through gritted teeth, "You...you're talking nonsense!"
Lin Yuan calmly took out a document and handed it to his assistant: "Show this document to everyone."
The assistant took the document and held it high so that everyone could see it.
It was a hospital examination report that clearly stated the date of Zhao Lili's miscarriage and the fact that she refused to be accompanied by anyone.
“After becoming pregnant, Ms. Zhao kept the truth about the child’s parentage from me. Even after the miscarriage, she fabricated lies again in an attempt to make me feel guilty.”
He looked at Zhao Lili's pale face and began to speak slowly.
"She originally intended for me to take over, but when we discussed the bride price, she made an exorbitant demand, and things went awry! Everyone, I admit I can't give her a bride price of tens of millions, but you've all seen Ms. Zhao's behavior. What exactly does she want from me?"
The crowd below the stage began to murmur among themselves, and many people started to have doubts about Zhao Lili's behavior.
A bystander shouted, "Ms. Zhao, aren't you going a bit too far?"
Zhao Lili's expression grew increasingly grim.
Another person in the crowd chimed in, "Yeah, you're making such a scene just for the money, aren't you?"
She clenched her back teeth tightly.
"Don't listen to his nonsense, he's just trying to shirk responsibility!"
But the crowd was no longer as supportive of her as before.
Some people began to question Zhao Lili.
"Are you making such a scene for money or something else?"
"Exactly, they're looking for someone to take over their marriage and demanding exorbitant dowries."
"These tiny 'beggog' or 'beggog' should have been drowned in pig cages in ancient times!"
Zhao Lili was embarrassed and humiliated by the accusations from the crowd.
She glanced at the glamorous Lin Yuan on the stage, a flicker of panic crossing her eyes.
