Chapter 72 – Relieving Her
When she saw Asher not far away, Mia’s face immediately cooled down and said indifferently, “You got the information from somewhere, I’m afraid it’s a misunderstanding, I just came back from America, I don’t know the president of Jun’s group at all!”
“Yeah, you guys must have misunderstood, Miss Leng just came back from the US a month ago, she doesn’t have any connections in the country yet, this should just be some people trying to ruin Miss Leng’s reputation, you guys mustn’t follow the trend.” Nangong asked as he held Mia’s hand tightly and said coldly to the media reporters.
The reporters looked at each other, and finally a group of reporters flocked to Asher and asked, “Master Jun, how do you feel about this news? Do you know this Miss Leng? Is the rumor that she used to be your mistress true?”
“Yeah, yeah, Master Jun, just talk about that.”Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“Also, it is said that you have been engaged to Miss Lai for five years, why the delay in holding the wedding, is there any original reason for this?”
“It is said that you are waiting for a woman, is this true?”
…
The reporters caught Asher for once, so naturally they refused to let go, and you asked a lot of personal questions.
Asher smiled slightly, raised his eyes to look at Mia and Nangong asked not far away, and said lightly, “I’ll start by saying that I’m engaged to Lina, it’s true that there was a five-year gap between us, but it’s because work has been quite busy lately, so I haven’t been able to take the right opportunity to come, you all misunderstood!”
After he had answered a question, a reporter immediately followed up, “What about your relationship with Miss Condensation? It is said that she used to be your mistress, is this information reliable?”
The question was like a shot in the arm for the journalists in the audience, and everyone turned their microphones and cameras on Asher.
The president of the Jun Group and the Shengshi Group, who were previously lovers, this news will surely blow up the city, no, it will surely blow up all of Asia!
I don’t know if it was just Asher, but he felt as if Mia across from him was fading to pale and looking at him with a faint tension in her eyes, but it was fleeting.
“This is all empty talk, don’t you guys think it’s ridiculous to actually come and ask questions after hearing it?” Seeing Asher’s delay in answering, Nangong asked finally couldn’t help but pull a face, “If you guys write these false reports out, I will find the person in charge of you and demand an apology!”
As soon as Nangong asked, a reporter immediately asked, “Mr. Nangong, you seem to be a little nervous. Don’t worry, we will definitely not write something unrealistic and confuse our readers.”
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Nangong asked’s face, “You reporters always like to catch wind of things, obviously two people who don’t know each other, you all have to force them together, how can we believe that you won’t exaggerate? Write something damaging to the people involved?”
“Well, I believe that you all are adhering to the facts to report things, my schedule is all transparent, you can ask my secretary if you don’t believe me. As for this gentleman, I really don’t know him, and I have no comment!” Mia gently caught Nangong asked’s big hand and looked at the media reporters lightly with a fallen expression.
There was no more of that little woman of yesteryear to be found in her!
There was a silence, a breathless silence despite the number of people in the room, as they all waited for Asher’s answer.
Finally, Asher took a deep breath and blossomed into a faint smile, “Miss Leng is right, we really don’t know each other. I also only met Miss Leng today, so please don’t believe some rumors.”
“Master Jun, if you don’t know each other, why did you both happen to be together at the hospital so much?” Asher’s answer doesn’t exactly buy the reporter.
If we can dig up Asher’s private news, it will surely be a big seller! What’s more, the heroine of this Asher’s fling is the heir of the Shengshi Group – Condensation!
Asher could feel the gaze that Mia and Nangong asked cast on himself, he still smiled blandly, “As you all know, my grandfather’s heart has never been good, and Miss Leng is an expert in heart, the reason why I followed over here is to ask Miss Leng to operate on my grandfather. I believe that this news, is also enough for you all to go back and deliver, if you still have any questions, just come and ask me directly in the future, don’t bother Miss Leng!”
The smile on Asher’s face faded in the latter few words, and his voice took on the characteristic coldness and dominance of a higher power, giving an invisible oppression.
All the reporters looked at each other and then unconsciously scattered, Asher’s words had too many meanings in them and they didn’t want to piss off the man who could make them never be in this city again with one word!
After waiting for the reporters to disperse, Nangong asked nodded towards Asher and said lightly, “Thanks a lot!”
“It’s just a matter of raising my hand, not to mention, this matter is about Miss Leng’s reputation, how can I let it go?” Asher responded lightly, a pair of dark eyes locking onto Mia’s face, “I do wonder how these media, like me, have decided that Miss Leng is an old acquaintance.”
Mia raised her eyes to look at him, her tone without the slightest warmth, “Mr. Jun, originally I had never understood why the reporters were waiting for me here, but now you reminded me by saying so, is it difficult that you arranged for the reporters to wait here?”
“And the reason?” Asher’s gaze, never leaving Mia’s face.
“That’s what I don’t understand Jun-san, even if I refused to operate on your grandfather, you don’t have to treat me in such a way, do you?” Mia snapped back.
Nangong asked but interrupted the conversation between the two and said softly to Mia, “The dean is still waiting for us, let’s just go first!”
“Eh.” Mia nodded and stopped paying attention to Asher, accompanying Namgung to the elevator with him.
Nangong asked and cast a look across the elevator, seeing Asher still standing in place, he asked in a deep voice, “Could it be, that he really arranged this time? If that’s the case, you really have to be careful.”
“It doesn’t look like it to me!” Mia shook her head slightly, “He’s always been conceited, he doesn’t care to use such tactics, I do suspect that this time, the press arrangement, could be the same person as the one who injured me that day?”
Nangong asked after half a day of thought, raising his eyes in shock, “Could it be, could it be those old guys from the board of directors?”
“It’s also possible, they have long had second thoughts on account of grandpa’s poor health, and now that they see me as the president, they must be even more disconcerted in their hearts, and they might make some kind of mess in the future!” Mia let out a long sigh, somewhat physically and mentally exhausted.
If it was really the old guys from the board of directors who were causing trouble, her future days in the Shengshi Group would not be too good, I thought.
Nangong asked looking deeply at her with deep emotion in his tone, “Don’t worry, no matter what time it is, no matter what difficulties I encounter, I will always be by your side and will definitely not leave you!”
“Nangong asked, thank you, let’s talk about these things in the long run.” For some reason, after hearing these words, Mia’s deep emotions were obviously a little less natural.
Nangong asked and nodded, sighing darkly, knowing that he still had a long way to go before he could get Mia’s heart.
Instead, Asher watched them go up the stairs, pulled out his phone and made a call, “Whatever you’re doing right now, drop it immediately and go investigate everything about Centurion immediately, and most importantly, you investigate the current president of Centurion!”
After the order was given, Asher hung up and twisted his head to walk out of the hospital.
He knew Mia would never agree to ask for her help now at this time.
When he returned to the villa, Jun Haotian, who was waiting at Grandpa Jun’s bedside, asked with concern, “Asher, I see that you don’t look quite right, how did it go with that heart specialist, did she agree?”
“Dad, she was stopped and robbed by someone from an unknown source a while ago and injured herself, so I’m afraid she won’t be able to have surgery for a while.” Unconsciously, Asher defended Mia.
Jun Haotian sighed repeatedly, “This matter is really not coincidental, who actually did it?”
“I don’t know, but I’m afraid it’s going to take some time if I want her to operate on Grandpa.” Asher sounded bashful.
“Alas, your grandfather’s health is getting worse and worse, I thought if I hurry up and have the surgery to feel at ease, otherwise, I’m really afraid that he … alas …” At the end of the sentence, Jun Haotian let out a long sigh A breath, did not say more.
Asher’s heart rose up with a trace of inexplicable emotion, comforting Jun Haotian and said, “Don’t worry dad, I will find the best doctor to maintain grandpa first during this period of time, after that specialist’s injury gets better, we will let her operate on grandpa, it will be fine!”
“That’s all that’s left now!” Jun Haotian let out a slight sigh and nodded heavily.
Asher looked at Grandpa Jun’s waxy face on the hospital bed, and his heart flushed with sadness. The Grandpa Jun had always been aggressive and strong in life, and could not allow others to refute what he said.
I had no idea that getting a heart attack in old age would be life threatening from time to time.
“Well, Asher, you’ve been tired for quite a long time, your grandfather will just have me watching here, so hurry up and go rest!” Seeing that Asher didn’t look too good, Jun Haotian kindly admonished.
Asher nodded and turned towards his room, by now his men should have found all the information he wanted for him, according to the time.
Sure enough, by the time he made his way to his room, there was a man waiting for him at the door.
