After the initial tension subsided, Zhao Qinglan's fighting spirit soared when faced with a suspected "spy."
She doesn't consider herself a hero, but she is a passionate and sentimental Chinese person.
Regardless of who is behind her, she is willing to cooperate with the country to bring them to justice.
Zhao Qinglan kept the discovery of foreign nationals' involvement a secret.
At home, she only told her uncle and husband; at the company, only a few people who handled the investigation knew the inside story.
The people she entrusted with the important task of investigating were from Lanxin Security Department.
These people are mostly retired military personnel, and their loyalty to the country and professional skills far surpass those of ordinary people.
If she weren't exceptionally capable, she wouldn't have been able to uncover so much information, which is why Zhao Qinglan was initially so confident in her ability to retaliate.
People from relevant departments quickly contacted Zhao Qinglan and even sent people to protect her secretly.
As for those people and forces targeting Lan Xin, they quickly took over after Zhao Qinglan provided the information she had investigated.
In order to keep the other party calm, Zhao Qinglan stopped remaining silent as always.
She first met with some reporters who wanted to interview her, repeatedly emphasizing her innocence, and then deliberately leaked photos of her looking haggard.
Aside from these, not a single piece of evidence to prove their innocence was presented.
It seems that her appearance only made Lanxin's situation worse, while those hiding in the shadows assumed that she was forced into a corner and had no other choice but to play the victim to gain public sympathy.
While her appearance dispelled the enemy's vigilance, many people were targeted and investigated.
Those who were close to her but unaware of the inside story felt both heartache and resentment upon seeing her words published in the newspaper and her haggard photos.
After meeting with her sister and expressing her concerns about the matter, Sanwa worried about her family and wanted to go home.
Erwa also wanted to go home after learning about their plans, and even Dawa started thinking about how to ask his boss for leave.
They used to think that their mother was particularly strong, and that she never encountered any problems that she couldn't solve.
Such a mother has always been a role model for her children.
But now, their mother has been driven to this point, and while they are indignant, they are also heartbroken. All they want to do is go home and stay by her side to offer help and support.
After Zhao Qinglan mentioned that the matter was very serious, Sun Guangming in the capital sent people to keep an eye on Xiaoduo and Sanwa.
They were afraid that someone might harm them, and it was also to protect their safety.
Sure enough, the siblings' plans to go home were reported to Sun Guangming.
Fearing that the children would be more of a hindrance than a help if they went back, Sun Guangming had no choice but to meet with the siblings privately and reveal some of the inside story.
Upon learning that their mother was acting and that their great-uncle was involved, Xiaoduo and Sanwa were overjoyed.
When they returned, they suddenly became worried, their acting skills were truly superb.
Not only did they refuse to go back themselves, they also persuaded the eldest and second children, who wanted to go home, to stay.
Erwa was confused, but was persuaded by his older sister and younger brother.
The eldest son agreed, but he became suspicious. However, since his younger siblings wouldn't say anything, he couldn't get any information out of them and could only remain puzzled.
This incident escalated to the point that even Zhou Yunting and Yi Ningxiang, who were abroad, eventually found out about it.
They also asked Xiaoduo if she needed any help.
Fortunately, Xiaoduo already knew some of the inside story and managed to calm them down.
As Lanxin's situation worsened, with its branches and supermarkets experiencing sluggish business and some employees even resigning, the investigators finally uncovered a big fish.
Knowing that things were coming to an end, Zhao Qinglan felt relieved and immediately instructed her secretary to notify the relevant newspapers and television stations that Lanxin would be holding a press conference to answer all the questions the public had raised about her recently.
Lan Xin is currently a hot topic, and everyone who received the invitation refused it.
Even some media reporters who hadn't been notified before contacted Lanxin specifically to attend the press conference.
For Zhao Qinglan, it's always better to make a grand and impactful clarification.
Even if some of them might be bribed and have ulterior motives, she still had her secretary approve and send out invitations.
It's fair to say that any reporter who wanted to come that day was welcome to attend.
To figure out what could be said and what couldn't, Zhao Qinglan met with the person in charge of the investigation to get a better understanding of the situation.
When she returned, she wrote the speech herself without her secretary's help, and even listed many key points of her speech.
Zhao Qinglan held Lanxin's press conference at the provincial capital group headquarters.
Because there were several days left after the announcement, some reporters from newspapers and television stations in other places even came after hearing the news.
Zhao Qinglan had her secretary book all the rooms at a hotel with which the group had a partnership, so that all journalists attending the Lanxin press conference could check in with their credentials.
The provincial capital can be considered the base of her business.
Her return to resolve Lanxin's crisis also carries extraordinary significance.
The elders in the family also know about what's going on with Lanxin outside.
Fortunately, Zhao Qingzhu was there to persuade her, so Sun didn't rush to Guangshi to find her eldest daughter.
When Zhao Qinglan returned, she personally comforted her mother and said that she had a solution, which put Sun's mind at ease.
Upon returning to the provincial capital, Zhao Qinglan made some arrangements.
She was already confident and not worried about Lanxin's future, but then she heard news that could upset her.
The day before the press conference, she was in the group's headquarters office having a meeting to prepare for the big battle the next day. As soon as she came out of the meeting room, she saw her secretary anxiously waiting there.
"What's wrong?"
"Chairman Zhao, there's a new development."
Zhao Qinglan had her secretary bring the security personnel into her office.
He sneered after hearing that.
They really went to great lengths to target her.
Look at what she heard. In order to smear her, they even bribed the Zhao family from her hometown and the Wang family from her former husband's family to bring them here.
This was a "gift" given to her because they knew she was going to hold a press conference and were afraid she might have some big surprise in store.
She'd like to see what "surprises" her old friends and so-called relatives would give her at tomorrow's press conference.
Previously, Sanwa and the others could restrain themselves from going home, but knowing that their mother was going to hold a press conference, they really couldn't sit still this time.
Sun Guangming knew that the matter had been resolved, so he did not stop Xiaoduo and Sanwa from going back.
Besides the eldest child, Xiaoduo and the others also planned to go home together without telling their parents and go to the press conference to support their mother.
It wasn't that Da Wa didn't want to go back, but Xiao Duo and the others didn't want their brother to take time off work and travel for it. They just said that they would definitely bring his good wishes with them and would also tell him about the press conference.
The eldest child had no choice but to accept his younger siblings' kindness.
Besides them, some people who care about Zhao Qinglan also rushed to the provincial capital to offer their support.
Amidst everyone's anticipation, Lanxin's press conference was finally about to begin.
