Chapter 1676 - A Dogfight Where Both Parties Suffer!
Chapter 1676: A Dogfight Where Both Parties Suffer!
As Wen Xinya expected, the press gave an extremely comprehensive coverage of Wen Haowen’s press conference.
Wen Haowen planned to make use of the press conference to clear his name, get rid of any associations with Ning Shuqian and steer clear of any further gossip. Not only did he not succeed, but he had also further muddied things up.
The internet was full of chastisement against Wen Haowen.
“Tsk tsk tsk—let’s watch how much damage this couple will inflict on each other from this dogfight!”
“Both husband and wife are equally despicable. One had an extramarital affair and conceived an illegitimate child. The other is promiscuous and was even the subject of some erotic videos and photos. Neither of them knows the meaning of shame. All their morals have gone to the dogs. Stop all your disgusting antics and get out of our sights!”
“Cheap woman, filthy man. The press now knows no bounds. Such an immoral scandal is a disgrace to our society. How can the media deign to cover this, knowing that it brings a bad name to serious news reporting?”
“When I watched that filthy bastard cry so pitifully at the press conference, I just wanted to laugh out loud and offer him three words: You deserve it!”
“They acted like such a loving couple previously and fooled so many people. Now, look at how bitterly they are fighting. Damn them, they really spoiled the notion of true love for me. I will never believe in true love ever again!”
“I will never believe in true love ever again+1!”
“I will never believe in true love ever again+2!”
“I will never believe in true love ever again+3!”
“Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian’s ugly affair has become increasingly out-of-control. Should I reach out to the press and ask them to stop their reporting?”
Ling Qingxuan was very influential in the media circles. Many reporters would be willing to listen to him.
“No need. Even if they stopped reporting it, others would continue the thread. The press is a bunch of people who love to stir up trouble as much as possible. They are unstoppable.”
The drama of this Wen Family couple was akin to a celebrity scandal. It was like that divorce fracas between a certain celebrity with the surname Dong and another celebrity with the surname Pan. Accusations were flying between the two as they tried their best to fling dirty water at each other using nefarious means. Everyone was watching the drama unfold with gaping mouths.
The reporters were likewise rampant in their reporting, making the entire scandalous affair even dirtier and messier.
“Things cannot go on this way. Wen Corporation’s share price has declined significantly over the past two days. If it falls any further, it will hit rock bottom. We must think of a way to quickly resolve this.”
Gu Junling spoke up worriedly.
They also just found out that Old Mr. Wen had been in a coma for some time. Without him, it would be difficult for Xinya to step up and take the reins.
Wen Haowen was ambitious and cocky but possessed mediocre capabilities. It was impossible to expect him to resolve the situation.
If this dragged on any longer, the power of the Wen Corporation would be significantly weakened.
“Grandpa is in a coma and Wen Haowen is treating the Wen Corporation as his own. His desire to seize control of the entire company makes one’s hair stand on end. He completely ignored the opinions of the other directors and went ahead to schedule the press conference on his own accord.
“He is even disregarding the other shareholders and openly clashed with a number of them. Several minority shareholders have already publicly withdrawn their shares as they were very unhappy with Wen Haowen’s actions. When news of this leaks out tomorrow, it will drastically affect Wen Corporation’s situation.”
Not only that, Wen Haowen had overheard a few employees chatting about his scandal in the pantry and instantly flew into a rage, sacking them all.
Everyone across the whole Wen Corporation was full of trepidation and dread.
Zhou Tianyu raised his brows. “If Wen Haowen still doesn’t know to rein in his actions at such a juncture, Wen Corporation will be completely wrecked by him. He is truly incompetent and turns everything he touches into dust.”
Since Old Mr. Wen fell into a coma, Wen Haowen had openly revealed his greedy ambitions. It had been just a short two weeks and the Wen Corporation was already in such dire straits by his doings. If the company was really handed over to him, this major corporation would definitely collapse under his control.
“Xinya, are you really going to just stand by and watch this Wen Haowen drag the name of the Wen Family and the entire Wen Corporation down into the mud with him and Ning Shuqian?”
They were well aware of just how vicious this Ning Shuqian was.
Now that she had decided to destroy Wen Haowen’s reputation, she didn’t care that the whole Wen Family and Wen Corporation would be implicated.
The date of the court case was approaching soon. The moment Wen Haowen went to court, the Wen Family and Wen Corporation would be dragged along into that deep mud hole. They would be unable to extricate themselves until the court case was concluded.
And Wen Corporation’s hard-earned reputation and influence, built over so many years, would be destroyed by the impact of that court case.
“After Grandpa fell into a coma, Wen Haowen has been extremely guarded against me and refuses to let me participate in any matters regarding the Wen Corporation. I don’t have many shares and encounter obstacles whichever way I turn. There are many things which I have to do on the sly.”
Wen Corporation’s situation was already in the pits.
If Wen Haowen realized she had meddled in the affairs of the Wen Corporation and amassed her own supporters within the ranks, an all-out fight between father and daughter might erupt even before the Wen Family couple conflict was resolved.
As a result, she had not really interfered any further with Wen Corporation’s matters.
Ye Feiyu raised her brows in question. “Xinya, how is your Grandpa now? We better think of ways to have your Grandpa wake up as soon as possible.”
Wen Haowen was an absolute scum and already beyond any hope.
He was now completely consumed by greed and ambition and was capable of anything.
Wen Xinya’s face turned a shade darker at the mention of Grandpa. “Still the same, not much improvement. I specially invited Grandpa Du to treat him. So Grandpa is receiving acupuncture and western medicine treatments at the same time. I don’t know if it will be effective.”
Grandpa Du said that there was still a very high chance of Grandpa waking up.
It was just a matter of time.
Grandma had been at the hospital all day, every day. She had specially arranged for Auntie Wu to go look after her. Grandma was very old and she was afraid that Grandma herself might fall ill before Grandpa woke up.
The hearts of everyone felt heavy at the mention of Old Mr. Wen.
After Xinya returned to the Wen Family, apart from Old Mr. Mo, only Old Mr. Wen treated her the best. Xinya cared a lot for Old Mr. Wen.
Du Ruo held Wen Xinya’s hand. “Xinya, don’t worry. Grandpa Wen will definitely wake up. Don’t you trust my grandfather’s medical skills? It was also my grandfather who helped your Grandpa Wen get better the previous time.”
Du Ruo was very confident of her own grandfather. She believed Grandpa Wen would definitely recover.
Wen Xinya’s heart felt a bit lighter on seeing that she had such caring friends around her.
