Top-tier Unruly Master Chapter 457 - 454: Public Opinion Siege

Fang Deming and his group left dejectedly. Xu Rui, having so matters to attend to, sat for a mont before he also left.

It had been a while since he parted ways with Xu Rui, but Xu Rui's style was as always, still the sa decisive and action-oriented young dandy.

To describe Xu Rui with one word, it would be "handso."

Once the affair was settled, Ding Fan and his two companions also planned to leave. It wasn't until they reached the front desk to settle the bill that they found out their al had already been paid for by Fang Deming.

Ding Fan didn't appreciate Fang Deming's gesture, considering the man was nothing but a weathervane of a person.

The three of them left Phoenix Building.

Mu Qiangsheng then helped Ding Fan and Ye Ningqing to find a place to stay.

Mu Qiangsheng chose a hotel for them. Ding Fan and Ye Ningqing requested two standard rooms.

Both Ding Fan and Ye Ningqing were sowhat exhausted these past few days, and after resolving the matter in Kuanrenna City, Myanmar, they had returned to Dancheng without stopping.

Now settled, Ding Fan thought about taking a good rest.

After making sure Ding Fan and Ye Ningqing were settled, Mu Qiangsheng left.

After Mu Qiangsheng's departure, Ding Fan and Ye Ningqing each returned to their rooms to rest.

For Ding Fan, resting ant cultivating. Once back in his room, he swallowed a few Pills and began the Breathing Technique.

After reaching the Seventh Level of Qi Cultivation, Ding Fan's muscles and bones had been strengthened further, and his channels had beco wider. Besides that, his True Qi had also beco more condensed.

With Ding Fan's current level of cultivation, facing a Martial Artist at the Peak of Earth Level, Ding Fan now had the power to fight.

Although Ding Fan had previously had experience fighting a Peak Earth Level Martial Artist, his victory over the opponent relied on his experience and his reserved trump cards.

Ding Fan's trump cards were spells like the Fireball Technique, Wind Blade, Flying Sword, Fire Blade Technique, Teleportation Technique... Without these spells to aid him,

Ding Fan would have likely died long ago.

Ding Fan closed his eyes and circulated his True Qi; he did not know how many cycles of Xiao Zhoutian had passed before he finally opened his eyes to find that daylight had already broken.

Ding Fan had thought about returning to Dancheng first because he had his own plans.

Ding Fan was still the General Manager of the Dancheng Branch Company of Qin's Group. When Ding Fan left, he had already developed the ultimate version of the Pill.

Having been away for so long, Ding Fan wanted to know the current situation of the branch company.

After all, the branch company was where Ding Fan's roots were. He couldn't afford to be indifferent about it.

Ding Fan stepped out of his room, knocked on Ye Ningqing's door, and the two went out to have a lavish breakfast together.

After breakfast, Ding Fan decided to visit the branch company first, while Ye Ningqing had her own plans, so she couldn't accompany Ding Fan.

Ding Fan didn't mind. He parted ways with Ye Ningqing, found a car, and headed straight for the branch company.

The car ride took about twenty minutes before arriving at the branch company.

Along the way, observing the streetscape of Dancheng, Ding Fan was filled with emotion. Because Zhou Ruoran had lived in this city with him, seeing places they had visited together inevitably stirred his feelings.

"Regarding the multiple dical incidents that have occurred in your company, what is your stance?"

"Why has the Pill caused death... could there be an issue with the formulation of the dicine?"

...

As soon as Ding Fan reached the entrance, he saw the branch company's doorway already besieged by a swarm of journalists.

At this mont, in front of all the journalists, Hu Jin was standing there, seemingly responding to their questions.

For the mont, Ding Fan didn't rush over; he wanted to first understand what had happened.

After Ding Fan went to Yanjing, many of the branch company's affairs were now being managed single-handedly by Hu Jin.

Today, Hu Jin, dressed in a sharp business suit, looked solemn with bags under her eyes, which suggested she hadn't slept well for quite so ti.

"Let repeat, the so-called incidents of deaths caused by taking the Pill are still under investigation. Please do not speculate wildly until the matter has been thoroughly clarified," Hu Jin articulated sternly to the crowd of journalists.

"But Vice General Manager Hu, if after such a dical incident occurred, why has the responsible person of your company not made an appearance? Could it be that he has absconded? Or perhaps..."

"Sorry!" Hu Jin didn't even wait for the reporter to finish speaking before directly interrupting him. "This reporter, I have already said that the General Manager has his own matters to deal with... If you continue to speculate about our General Manager's whereabouts, then we will not welco you!"

Hu Jin's words were indeed very forceful, and after she spoke, the surrounding crowd, after a bout of noise, stopped asking about the General Manager.

In fact, Hu Jin was also very angry about the questions regarding the General Manager.

After all, she, Hu Jin, was just a worker. Once Ding Fan, that Demon King of Chaos, beca the General Manager of the branch company, he transferred her over and appointed her as the vice general manager, then he completely washed his hands of the matter. Now, they didn't even know where he was.

With such a big issue now facing the company, it could only be resolved by her, the company's vice general manager.

"Vice General Manager Hu, I am a reporter from Xinhua News Agency, I want to ask, regarding the rumor that the Calm Heart Pills have caused death, how do you, as a senior executive of the company, view this?" At this mont, a woman wearing gold-rimd glasses stood up and said.

"It's probably not appropriate for to give my opinion on this matter. I feel that there is soone operating behind the scenes, framing us…" As Hu Jin said this, she looked around. "But if I really said that, I'm afraid everyone present would think I'm trying to shift the bla."

Ding Fan, hiding in the corner and listening to Hu Jin's fluent speech, felt a bit of admiration for her adaptability, seriousness in handling things, and staying calm in the face of chaos. It seed that he, as a hands-off boss, had chosen a pretty good worker after all.

Just at this mont, the crowd beca chaotic, and then, an elder, with the help of two or three children, squeezed into the crowd.

"You heartless, profiteering scoundrels... I took your dicine, and it nearly took my life... My fellow reporters, there have been several cases of sudden deaths after consuming Calm Heart Pills, and after I took the pill, I passed out too... If it weren't for tily treatnt, I'm afraid I would be just like those people, already dead by now..."

As soon as the elder made his entrance, the surrounding reporters quickly turned their caras toward him. For a mont, the flashlights flashed wildly.

"Old sir, may I ask if you are the party involved?" A reporter quickly approached and asked.

"Yes, I am the party involved. After I took the Calm Heart Pills, I then passed out... I want to expose this heartless company!"

"Old sir, what else would you like to tell us…" At this mont, another reporter on the side asked.

"I want to see this heartless company shut down, a company that only knows how to make money but ignores the life and death of others... Such a company should be closed down!" The elder was shaking his fist, speaking to the surrounding reporters, but his eyes were fixed on Hu Jin on the stage.

The words of the elder were like a depth charge, stirring up the emotions of the people around him.

"There have already been so many dical accidents, and now they still don't reflect on it..."

"The company should be shut down; otherwise, how many more people will it harm!"

"Bring down this company! Let this company be stricken off!"…

For a ti, the people around were abuzz with discussion.

Hu Jin's expression was extrely ugly at this point.

She could handle all kinds of questioning from these reporters, but she didn't know how to calm the words of the elder.

Hu Jin couldn't even begin to question the authenticity of the elder's claims.

If she truly questioned the elder's authenticity, public opinion alone would drown her, as others would say they were deliberately avoiding the truth.

Moreover, the fact that the elder had nearly died after taking the Calm Heart Pills was impossible to investigate.

Too much ti had passed, and now there was nothing that could prove whether the elder had taken the Calm Heart Pills or not…

The elder looked pitiful, with an honest and simple appearance and tears streaming down his face; with this look… everyone completely believed every word he said.

Hu Jin felt utterly powerless at this mont; she really had no asures left to deploy…

"Vice General Manager Hu, may I ask... Seeing this elderly man, do you feel your conscience being condemned?"

"Vice General Manager Hu, when you were making money, did you ever consider what would happen if patients took your dicine..."

At this ti, so reporters, after seeing the pathetic state of the elder, stood out indignantly, accusing Hu Jin.

Hu Jin's brow was deeply furrowed. Looking around at the reporters, she knew that after today, the Dancheng Branch Company would probably indeed be heading towards its demise…

With a crisis of trust arising, who would believe them? They could only head towards destruction…

"Everyone, please calm down…" Just then, a voice ca from the side.

The voice wasn't loud, but it was clear enough to reach everyone's ears. Upon hearing this voice, the crowd did, in fact, quiet down.

When Hu Jin heard the voice, she was taken aback.

"The Demon King of Chaos? The Demon King of Chaos has returned..."

The person now walking to the front of the stage, if not Ding Fan, who else could it be...

Ding Fan, watching everything from below the stage, knew that if he didn't co out now, Hu Jin really wouldn't be able to control the situation any longer…
