Just as everyone was praising her, a pair of hateful eyes were staring at Gu Anran in the video. Why? Why could she live so well, gaining both fame and fortune, and even getting pregnant?
The woman slammed the remote control she was holding onto the television that was playing the news. The screen shattered, and her heavy breathing became even more pronounced in the darkness.
After a while, the woman's chest heaving became steady. She got up, turned off the TV, picked up the items she had prepared, and went to the women's prison. After passing through layers of checks, she was led by a prison guard to see her daughter.
"Mom." Lin Xinrou, who was opposite her, was wearing prison clothes and immediately burst into tears when she saw her.
Looking at her daughter's haggard face, Song Yurong felt even more hatred towards Gu Anran. Her daughter's current state was all Gu Anran's fault, and she would not let her get away with it.
Lin Xinrou recounted her grievances, and her tone was filled with hatred when she mentioned Gu Anran. Both of them placed all the blame on Gu Anran.
The visit passed quickly, and Song Yurong looked at her daughter with reluctance.
"Don't worry, she won't have an easy time for long," Song Yurong assured her again before leaving.
She watched her daughter being taken away before she got up and walked out of the prison. The prison's impregnable gates closed in front of her, and her daughter's youth would slowly fade away here.
How could she act as if nothing had happened and live a carefree life when Xinrou was living such a miserable life? After thinking it over in her mind, she took a taxi and left.
"I'll give you whatever I'm owed after it's done, don't worry." Song Yurong hung up the phone and started laughing. Her gloomy face paired with a ferocious smile made her look eerie and terrifying.
People have gradually accepted the change of president at YR, but many are very interested in the new president. So the media started to try to take pictures of Hogo, but unfortunately the photos were never very good.
Many people in the industry know Hogo and often leave comments under his articles, which makes the public more and more interested in seeing the new president of YR.
People in the company have also become familiar with Huo Ge, and they will make appropriate jokes when they see him. Huo Ge is quite helpless about this, and he mentioned it when he was video chatting with Gu Anran.
"Why don't we take this opportunity to let everyone meet you, and at the same time officially announce that you are the president of YR?" Although Gu Anran was also gloating, he was now giving her the opportunity to take charge of the company, so she still had to be grateful.
After careful consideration, Huo Ge felt that this solution was good. He went over it with Jia Yunxin and got her approval. That evening, he held a video conference with the executives to finalize the details and then began preparing for the press conference.
Two-thirds of the city's media reporters had worked with YR. Gu Anran was fairly familiar with these media outlets, both good and bad, during her tenure. In addition, YR had a high exposure rate recently, so they immediately agreed to the invitation.
In order to create a good image for the company president, Huo Ge specially asked Gu Anran to design a suit for him. Gu Anran rushed to complete the design. Originally, she wanted to do it herself and make it by hand, but Ye Lichuan objected very strongly.
“You rarely make suits for me. Just give him the design drafts. I won’t allow it.”
"Alright, stop being jealous. How about I make you a set?" Ye Lichuan was finally satisfied. Although she was exasperated by the man's childishness, Gu Anran felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
Knowing she couldn't make the costume wasn't surprising, so they immediately contacted someone to make one. The costume was completed two days before the press conference, and the venue was ready.
The public's attention to YR was so high that everyone knew about the press conference, and some even suggested broadcasting it live. Seeing the news online, Song Yurong knew that her opportunity had come. This time, she was going to ruin Gu Anran's reputation.
She dialed the number. "Let's meet."
Inside the coffee shop, Song Yurong pulled her hat down low, adjusted her mask, and glanced at the time impatiently.
"Sorry I'm late." Judging from her voice, the woman who spoke was very young and had a good figure. She was also wearing a baseball cap to cover her face. After sitting down, she slightly raised the brim of her cap. Song Yurong looked her over before nodding.
The two got up and walked out together. After arriving at the hotel they had booked, the young woman began to change into the clothes she had brought, while Song Yurong tugged at her hair, making it messy.
Soon after, the sounds of crying and scolding came from inside the house, and it took a long time to stop.
"The remaining payment has already been transferred to your card. I hope you keep quiet, otherwise..." Song Yurong sneered, and the young woman immediately nodded. The two left the room one after the other.
The press conference was held at 2 p.m. on the 15th at the Ruiyang Hotel. Half an hour before the press conference, Huo Ge was preparing backstage, and the media and reporters entered the venue in an orderly manner.
After all the reporters and media were seated and their equipment was set up, Hogo took the stage.
"Welcome to today's press conference. I've invited you all here mainly to explain my appointment as YR and to answer your questions."
Dressed in a haute couture suit, with a constant smile on his face, Hogo first explained the reasons for changing the president of YR and why he had taken over YR. Just as he was about to let the reporters ask questions, there was a sudden commotion at the door.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, we cannot let you in because you are not employed."
"Madam, please do not force your way in. If you continue, we will take coercive measures." The security guard's voice came from the doorway into the lobby, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the doorway, ready to press their cameras at any moment.
Hogo waved to his assistant, signaling him to go check what was going on. The assistant nodded and was about to go find a staff member when the door was kicked open.
A woman in a black cheongsam walked in, and a few strands of her hair, which had been styled in a bun, fell out because of the argument with the security guard earlier.
"I know that everyone here today is a reporter, and I want to expose something to you."
The reporters immediately became interested. Although it was news that Hogo had allowed them to take photos, they wouldn't let any new scoops slip by.
Hogo stood on high ground and immediately sensed that she was up to no good when he saw her, and sure enough, he was right.
"I want to expose Gu Anran, the former president of YR, who was extremely unfilial to his elders and even betrayed his own people."
The moment these words were spoken, the crowd erupted in uproar. The person holding the camera immediately zoomed in on her face. Hogo wanted to have her pulled away, but he was afraid that the media present would report it indiscriminately.
“Madam, this is YR’s press conference. If you have any issues, you can contact me afterward. If you continue to disrupt the order, I have the right to remove you from the venue.”
Song Yurong glanced at him, and the next second her eyes were fixed on him.
