Chapter 195 Before the Press Conference
Ling Yuan slowly put down the phone in his hand and ended the call with Butcher. In fact, he had thought deeply about the problem mentioned by Butcher. However, in order to eradicate the cancer of the Water Group in just one year and deal with the gods from Asgard, Ling Yuan knew that he had to take a risk.
If it were two days ago, Ling Yuan might still be worried about being plotted against, but since the arrival of Zhongyan and Suo, he no longer feared any hidden attacks. With his own unparalleled strength and the terrifying power of Zhongyan and Suo, even if someone tried to stab him in the back, he must have the ability to kill them.
After hanging up the phone, Ling Yuan raised his lips slightly. He was quite satisfied with Butcher's performance. Now he only needed to push it a little, and the surging public opinion would immediately surge towards the Water Group and the God Realm. By then, it would be the turn of Edgar and Odin, the two "old foxes", to be flustered and at a loss.
In the office of the vice president of the Water Group on the upper floors of the towering skyscraper of the Water Group, Madeline was talking with Starlight, who had just joined the Super Seven, with a smile on her face. The atmosphere between them was extremely harmonious, as if they were old friends who had known each other for a long time.
Madeleine in particular showed an irresistible friendliness. If one were not aware of her hypocrisy, one would probably think she was just an amiable middle-aged woman.
"Little girl, don't be too nervous! This press conference is to better promote your joining, so that you can become a household name and respected superhero in the future!" Madeline whispered to comfort Starlight softly, and patted her shoulders gently, trying to relax Starlight's body which seemed particularly stiff due to excessive nervousness.
Although Xingguang had some doubts about Madeline's words, after careful consideration, she felt that what she said made sense. After all, if you want to help ordinary people and resist criminal behavior, a good reputation is indeed very important. If you don't have enough fame, who will pay attention to you?
Xingguang thought about these questions secretly. Although she was still confused, she couldn't help but nodded slightly to show her agreement. At this moment, she didn't know how to respond to Madeline's words.
At this moment, Ling Yuan pushed the door open without hesitation and walked in. The two people who were originally chatting happily were interrupted by the sudden sound of the door opening, and they turned their heads to look at the door. Madeline was furious when she heard that someone dared to break into her office so rudely without knocking on the door first, but when she looked up and was about to scold the other person, she saw Ling Yuan staring at her with a smile on his face. Even though the anger in her heart erupted like a volcano, Madeline did not dare to show it at all, because she knew that Ling Yuan's identity was extraordinary. Not only that, behind Ling Yuan were two beautiful young girls who were as beautiful as fairies and stunningly beautiful.
Xingguang stared at Ling Yuan with eyes wide open in disbelief, and everything that happened under the Seven-Man Tower kept appearing in her mind. She couldn't help but fall into deep thought, why was she so impulsive at that time? She actually mistook Ling Yuan for a bad guy and rushed towards him without hesitation and started fighting. Although she didn't defeat Ling Yuan in the end, she was still filled with guilt and regret when she thought about it now.
Ling Yuan's eyes were always on Madeline, with a trace of undisguised disgust flashing in the depths of his eyes. He stood there with a seemingly polite but extremely hypocritical smile on his face, as if trying to restrain his inner anger. Because just now, all the PUA words that Madeline said to Xingguang were heard by Ling Yuan standing outside the door. For such an extremely hypocritical woman, Ling Yuan was able to remain so calm, which was considered to be his best effort.
Ling Yuan glanced at Xing Guang indifferently, raised his hand slightly, and nodded indifferently, which was considered a greeting. Xing Guang looked at the man in front of her in a bit of astonishment, thinking back to the day when she had offended him so rudely, and now he could still greet her so calmly, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Okay, let's do this for now!" Madeline had an elegant smile on her face. She gently waved towards Xingguang and said, "You should start preparing for the press conference this afternoon. I need to talk to this gentleman alone." After that, she turned her gaze to Ling Yuan, and a barely perceptible coldness flashed in her eyes.
Xingguang quickly stood up, bowed deeply to Madeline, then glanced at Lingyuan and walked out of Madeline's office without hesitation. Looking at Xingguang's departing back, Lingyuan led Zhongyan and Suo to sit opposite Madeline as if nothing had happened. Madeline stared at Lingyuan, who exuded an easy-going aura, with a hint of curiosity and doubt in her eyes.
"Mr. Ling Yuan, inviting you to attend the Xingguang press conference is only one aspect..." Madeline adjusted her posture and put away the hypocritical smile she had when facing Xingguang. In front of Ling Yuan, false emotional expressions were meaningless and might even cause Ling Yuan's disgust. "But more importantly, the video of the beach that day has spread all over the world. Regarding this matter, I hope you can provide some relevant information or clues."
Madeline's tone was very serious. She stared at Ling Yuan closely, as if trying to see his inner thoughts through his calm appearance. However, Ling Yuan remained calm, with a faint smile on his lips, making it difficult to tell his true mood and attitude at the moment.
"Ms. Madeline wants to know the information about that incident. May I ask, Ms. Madeline, or Mr. Edgar behind you, how much are you willing to pay for it?" Ling Yuan's words were modest and reasonable, but there was an inexplicable hint of joking in his tone.
Madeline's eyebrows jumped fiercely, but she still did not choose to tear her face with Ling Yuan, and still maintained the temperament of a strong woman as the second in command of the Water Group. She really did not have the ability to oppose Ling Yuan. Just based on the means Ling Yuan showed in her office last time, if she opposed Ling Yuan, Ling Yuan could kill her twenty times in one minute.
"That depends on how much Mr. Ling Yuan is willing to reveal..." Madeline smiled and looked at Ling Yuan. In the eye contact, Madeline was not at all at a disadvantage.
Ling Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly. Madeline was worthy of being the second-in-command of the Water Group. At this time, she threw the question back, and her tone and momentum were not willing to give in at all.
"Ms. Madeline, you talk to me like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" Ling Yuan smiled and crossed his legs. His whole demeanor instantly became extremely lazy, and he stared at Madeline with interest in his eyes.
"If Mr. Ling Yuan wanted to kill me, he should have done it long ago instead of haggling with me here, right?" Madeline's tone was confident, as if she was certain that Ling Yuan would not do it.
"As expected of you..." Ling Yuan's mouth corners slightly raised, but his whole body still looked lazy, and it was impossible to tell how much Ling Yuan cared about Madeline's problem.
