Lu Feng nodded in agreement with Johnnie To's statement. Now that things were clear, all that remained was a matter of saving face. He believed that the people at Wahaha already knew that tomorrow's reconciliation was just a formality.
The next morning, a row of Audis was parked downstairs, a total of twelve cars. Next to each car stood a man in a gray suit, white gloves, and sunglasses, looking very imposing.
Lu Feng, standing upstairs, grinned at the sight. This was too ostentatious. But that's how it is now. Setting up a scene and parading around, whether it's a business or a hoodlum, they all rely on this to build their reputation.
Around 8 a.m., many reporters had already found their spots outside the court to take pictures, and some people were even there to watch the spectacle. The court had no choice but to have security guards maintain order.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Lu Feng and his group came downstairs. They were all dressed in black suits and looked particularly imposing. Even Zhang Fengxia had changed into a gray professional office lady outfit and tied her hair up, looking like a secretary.
"Set off!"
The convoy slowly made its way toward the main road.
Meanwhile, not far away, sports cars roared out of the school gates and sped away under the watchful eyes of everyone. Today was definitely a day when Miao Tianyu and his gang of second-generation rich kids came out in full force. Many people were whispering to each other, "Why are they making such a big fuss today after such a long period of silence?"
Miao Tianyu sped towards the courthouse, determined to show Lu Feng that trying to outdo them in wealth was simply humiliating.
A dozen minutes later, a line of cars slowly drove into the parking lot, and the people present became restless!
Who's here?
Whose car is this?
"Jiaming or Wahaha?"
Some reporters were already craning their necks to look over there, then picked up their microphones and said to the camera: "Hello everyone, we can now see that one side has arrived. The beverage war that has lasted for half a year is coming to an end today. We still don't know whether those vehicles belong to Jiaming or Wahaha."
The cameraman quickly gave the convoy a close-up shot. The cars slowly approached and finally stopped at the entrance. All the drivers got out of the cars, opened the doors, and Wahaha executives got out of the cars, instantly surrounding President Zong in the middle, with people clearing a path on the outside.
"Does the settlement mean that Jiaming Foods no longer needs to pay compensation?"
"There are rumors circulating that Jiaming Foods did not plagiarize and is preparing to file a countersuit, so you opted for a settlement. Can you respond to this?"
"Have you been engaging in mutual hype, as you've both claimed to the outside world? Your companies have experienced very rapid growth in the past six months. Please say something about it."
"Could you share your thoughts right now?"
A large group of people crowded together, with microphones being shoved into the crowd. Security guards outside were pushing and shoving, creating chaos. In the end, they entered the courthouse without saying a word.
"Okay, viewers, as you can see, the scene is a bit chaotic. The Wahaha representative has been silent and has already walked into the courthouse behind me. I believe they will give an explanation when they come out."
The crowd was eagerly anticipating the arrival of the Jiaming Foods representatives. The fact that they failed to block the Wahaha representatives earlier indicated a strategic blunder. Several muscular male reporters had already formed a human wall by blocking the center.
However, instead of the convoy of Jiaming Foods, a Porsche sports car rushed in, accompanied by the roar of its engine, followed by more than a dozen other vehicles.
"Is this someone from Jiaming Foods?"
"No way, let's take a picture, just in case."
Everyone looked on with suspicion. If this was how Jiaming Foods made its entrance, it would definitely be headline news. Such an exaggerated style was simply laughable.
Given their naive and uncivilized appearance, few people would dare to drink the food they produce.
After the Porsche came to a stop, Miao Tianyu got out of the car and was startled by the scene before him. Long and short spears were all pointed at him. Although they were quite far away, he was still somewhat bewildered.
"Holy crap, what's going on?"
"Why are there so many reporters here? This is a court, not a newspaper office."
"Brother Tianyu, did you find all of them?"
"Brother Tianyu is definitely going to take pictures of how he humiliates Lu Feng and put them in all the newspapers."
The others chattered and explained things to Miao Tianyu, but Miao Tianyu knew that these people had nothing to do with him, and things seemed to be getting out of his control.
"Are you a shareholder or person in charge of Jiaming Foods?" someone shouted.
"Jiaming Foods?" Miao Tianyu waved his hand in denial.
Just as everyone was feeling disappointed, an Audi turned the corner, and someone immediately perked up, saying, "That must be it!"
Sure enough, under the watchful eyes of everyone, twelve Audi cars drove up and slowly pulled up in front of the courthouse. Instantly, the sound of camera shutters clicking filled the air, creating a chaotic scene that looked like a fashion show to anyone who didn't know better.
Miao Tianyu was also confused and asked, "Are you sure it's the courthouse entrance? Is Lu Feng really coming?"
"They should be coming; the news should be reliable."
"What do you mean by 'it's his mother's duty'?"
"Let's wait a bit and see what these people are up to."
A dozen or so security personnel got out of the car first, and asked all the reporters to stand at the back. Then the car door was opened, and Lu Feng stepped out of the car, straightened his suit, and the cameras were mostly focused on Gao Zhiwei and Du Qifeng. They appeared the most.
Lu Feng got out of the car and looked around. He had just seen a Porsche overtaking other cars like a madman. His gaze fell on Miao Tianyu, and their eyes met. Both of them were a little stunned.
