"Comrade reporter, you can speak frankly about what you want to say," Zhao Qinglan said with a smile.
Is the mastermind behind this finally about to make their move? She's been waiting for this for a long time.
Hearing the reporter's ill-intentioned question, those who cared about Zhao Qinglan became worried again.
Erwa stared intently at the reporter.
"As far as I know, you did many bad things to your former in-laws, as well as to your own family. Chairman Zhao is now the chairman of a large group with a net worth of tens of millions, but your family members are still living a very poor life in the countryside."
These words caused an uproar in the audience.
Those who know Zhao Qinglan are aware of her entanglements with the Wang and Zhao families, but those who are not so close to her are unaware of the inside story.
As for the reporters, they were hearing such shocking inside information for the first time. After their initial surprise, they became excited and eager to hear Zhao Qinglan's answer.
Sure enough, the Wang family and the Zhao family were waiting for her here.
"Excuse me, reporter, what exactly are you referring to? Please describe it more clearly."
Yes, make it clear. The other listeners nodded in agreement.
But why is Chairman Zhao so calm? Is it because these things are all slanders, or something else?
"Since Chairman Zhao insists that I speak, then I will not stand on ceremony. However, Chairman Zhao, would you allow me to bring your former in-laws in? Perhaps it would be better if they told me themselves than if I relayed it."
He thought that if he said that, Zhao Qinglan would panic and try to stop the Wang family from coming in.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Qinglan's expression remained unchanged as she said, "Alright, let them in. I also want to hear what they have to say."
So everyone looked towards the doorway.
Soon, Old Lady Wang and her daughter Wang Dahua, who was being helped by her, walked in.
Grandma Wang became excited as soon as she saw Zhao Qinglan.
"You heartless, vicious woman! You've ruined my Dazhi and my poor grandchildren!"
This accusation was undeniably serious, yet Zhao Qinglan didn't even flinch.
Seeing the many curious reporters, she kindly explained to them.
"I'm afraid you don't know much about my private life, so let me briefly explain. I was married before. When I was just an adult, due to pressure from my family, I was married off to Wang Dazhi, a widower in my hometown who already had a son and a daughter."
This simple sentence contains so much.
Because of her explanation, everyone's attention turned to her.
Old Mrs. Wang said disapprovingly, "You vicious woman, what are you trying to say to argue?"
"Don't I even have the right to say a few words? I'm no longer a daughter-in-law of the Wang family, yet you still treat me so unkindly."
"Chairman Zhao, please continue."
"Yes, we're waiting to hear it."
Several reporters shouted.
Xiao Duo was the most nervous when she saw the Wang family members come in.
The second and third children quickly comforted their older sister.
"Sister, don't be afraid, we're here. We'll protect you. Don't be afraid of them," Erwa said, clenching his fist.
"Sister, don't be nervous. They couldn't do anything to you and Mom before, and they certainly can't now," Sanwa said coldly.
Seeing that everyone was letting Zhao Qinglan speak, Old Lady Wang finally shut up.
"There are many reasons why I left the Wang family, but the main reason is that they didn't treat me and my daughter as human beings. I don't need to go into the details. You can believe it if you want. In short, I divorced my ex-husband Wang Dazhi and took my daughter with me. That's my relationship with the Wang family."
After Zhao Qinglan finished speaking, she looked at the Wang family mother and daughter. "What do you want to say? You can continue."
She wanted to see what kind of nonsense this mother and daughter could come up with.
"How dare you mention Dazhi? It's you, you heartless, poisonous woman, who murdered Dazhi and sent him to prison. Even so, you still won't let him go, making it impossible for him to stay in our country. For so many years, I haven't heard a single word from my Dazhi. Even my poor grandchildren are now lost somewhere. It's all your fault!"
"I caused it? You keep saying I caused it, then what did I do?" Zhao Qinglan retorted.
"It's all your fault, you poisonous woman."
"I can also give you a brief account of why my ex-husband, Wang Dazhi, went to prison and why he is not in the country."
“Because he held a grudge after our divorce, he actually conspired with my uncles, who were not close to me, to kidnap my underage sister so he could continue to be his wife. As for why he couldn’t stay in China, I’m also curious about where he, a man who escaped from prison and was wanted, ended up. Judging from your tone, it seems that you have been in contact with your son even after he escaped from prison.”
Grandma Wang wanted to argue, but her daughter, Wang Dahua, stopped her in her haste.
Those present were truly amazed.
Who would send their own sister to be a replacement after getting divorced? And what about the prison break? Could it be that the ex-wife who got him killed?
It seems like there's something wrong with the Wang family.
The way Wang's mother and daughter looked at each other was different.
The reporter who brought the Wang family in cursed inwardly. Before coming, they had confidently claimed to have a lot of dirt on Zhao Qinglan and that they would expose her in front of everyone. Is this how they did it?
"Zhao Qinglan, you're so glib. My mother is old and her mind is a bit confused. She can't argue with you. Putting everything else aside, Wang Xiaoduo is a member of the Wang family, yet you took her away and won't let any of us Wang family members see her. Isn't that going too far?"
Zhao Qinglan's anger flared as she was astonished that he even dared to mention his daughter.
However, before she could respond, the impatient Xiaoduo stepped forward.
"I don't want to see them."
Everyone looked at the young and beautiful Xiaoduo.
Zhao Qinglan was startled to see her daughter there, with Erwa and Sanwa standing beside her.
Xiaoduo said as she walked forward.
“From a young age, my grandparents only liked my older brother and sister and didn’t pay attention to me. My older brother and sister always bullied me, and they didn’t care even when they knew. I’m not like a member of the Wang family at all. And my mother also suffered a lot in the Wang family.”
“The moment my mother took me away was the happiest moment of my life. In the Wang family, I only have painful memories. Even after we left, they still relentlessly tried to harm us.”
“I’d rather not have relatives like that, so why should I see them? Also, my name is now Li Xiaoduo, please remember that.”
Is this Chairman Zhao's daughter, who studied abroad and is now developing her career in Beijing?
It seems they harbor a great deal of resentment towards the Wang family.
However, considering what she said, if the Wang family is really like that, then there is indeed no need to meet them.
"Xiaoduo, why are you back?"
Zhao Qinglan walked to her daughter's side and asked in a low voice.
"Mom, how can we not be there for such an important moment?"
The second and third children nodded in agreement.
Zhao Qinglan felt a warmth in her heart.
