Chapter 222: Can’t Endure Her Being Bullied
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Zong Zhengyu felt that Mu Anan was looking at him, he reached out and pinched her chin, turning her gaze back to the TV screen.
At this time, the reporter was interviewing the downstairs of the Tang Group’s building.
Although the Tang Group wasn’t one of the top corporations in Liuli City, it was backed by the Zong family, so its position in the city couldn’t be underestimated.
Especially the 33-story building that stood in the center of the business street was a gift from the Zong family.
However, at this moment, in front of the group’s headquarters building, which had always been bustling and beautiful, was a mess.
Dozens of members gathered in front of the building, holding banners high and demanding an explanation from the Tong Group.
The reporter at the front reported, “According to the latest news from the hospital at 8 am in Liuli City time, the guests who suffered from food poisoning at Tang’s Hotel have been rescued. Following the intervention of the Health Organization, it was discovered that Tang’s Hotel’s hygiene was not up to standard. To reduce costs, they even openly used ingredients that did not meet the quarantine standards.”
The screen shifted to record a scene of shame at the major hotels under the Tang Group.
The protesting crowd not only gathered in front of the Tang Group building but also had a march near the hotels owned by the Tang Group, asking the Tang Group to explain.
Such a large-scale company that started out in the hotel business was not even met by budget hotel standards.
Mu Anan did not know how to express her emotions when she saw all of this.
At the same time, after reporting the Tong Group’s problems, the reporters also began to follow up in real-time. After the incident was exposed, shares of Tang Group plummeted down.
It’s almost on the verge of collapsing.
It was only after a while that Mu Anan looked towards Zong Zhengyu again, “Seventh Master, you led this? Didn’t you promise me…”
“I didn’t destroy Tang Group. I didn’t punish Tang Mi.” Zong Zhengyu told her what he had promised Mu Anan yesterday.
Mu Anan looked at him.
He leaned lazily on the sofa, his right hand placed across the back of the sofa, his index finger tapping on the back of the sofa.
Zong Zhengyu said, “The Tang Group’s hotels originally had problems, so they were exposed and vocalised. As a strategic partner, the Zong family also helped a lot, which saved Tang’s stock from crashing.”
Mu Anan could not find any fault with Zong Zhengyu’s words.
Zong Zhengyu added, “The Tang Group won’t be destroyed, but each member of the Tang family will face disputes such as debt compensation in the coming days.”
Mu Anan instantly understood what Zong Zhengyu meant.
Seventh Master did not destroy the Tang family, but what was worse than the destruction of the Tang family was that everyone in the Tang family would hold the dilapidated family business in the future and fight for their lives to repay the debts of this business!
Every day they live, they will pay their debts like dogs.
The Zong family would help. But they just made sure that the Tang family would not be destroyed.
Mu Anan suddenly gasped.
It was at this moment that she truly witnessed the man’s venom in business tactics.
“Seventh Master, as for the old master…”
“Don’t worry about him.”
Zong Zhengyu cut off Mu Anan’s words and reached out to rub her head, “It was dealt with clearly yesterday.”
Mu Anan did not say anything and just stared at Zong Zhengyu.
She didn’t believe him.
Seventh Master seemed to be in a good mood. He asked, “Do you know what I told the old man?”
Mu Anan shook her head.
Zong Zhengyu’s lips curled up, “I’m telling the old man, I can’t tolerate my girl being bullied.”
Mu Anan’s heart was violently touched.
She felt tingly, like a myriad of electric currents expanding away from the veins of her heart.
This feeling of being pampered and teased made her speechless for a moment.
After a long time, Mu Anan said softly, “Seventh Master, I want a hug.”
Zong Zhengyu did not respond to Mu Anan’s request.
He stood up from the sofa and carried Mu Anan in his arms. He placed her in the middle of the sofa and asked her to sit properly.
Mu Anan didn’t understand what Seventh Master was doing, “Seventh Master?”
Zong Zhengyu made a silencing gesture and then scattered Mu Anan’s hair.
His slender fingers reached into Mu Anan’s hair and tidied it.
Then, he knelt down on one knee in front of Mu Anan.
Mu Anan couldn’t understand Seventh Master’s actions at all, and her heart inexplicably tensed up.
Zong Zhengyu reached into Mu Anan’s pocket and took out the hair clip that he had given her on the hot air balloon. He pinned it on Mu Anan’s hair.
Then, she helped Mu Anan tidy up her clothes.
“Seventh Master?” Mu Anan couldn’t help but ask in confusion.
Because she couldn’t understand Seventh Master’s actions at all.
At the same time, there was a knock on the hotel room door.
Mu Anan wanted to stand up, but Zong Zhengyu pressed on her shoulder, “Sit.”
Then, Seventh Master personally walked to the door and opened it.
Luo Sen stood respectfully outside the door, “Seventh Master, they have arrived.”
When Luo Sen said that, Mu Anan was still confused.
They?
Who would do it?
What did Seventh Master want to do?
Mu Anan could not find the answer.
The television had been turned off, and the black screen clearly showed Mu Anan’s current image.
She was dressed appropriately and sat in the middle of the sofa. Her posture was upright and her face was full of pride.
The diamond hairpin on her head emitted a glow.
At the moment, Mu Anan felt as if she was sitting in front of a palace, waiting to be worshipped as a princess!
At the same time, Mu Anan saw the people entering the room from the reflection of the TV screen.
At this moment, she understood what Seventh Master had done!
Mu Anan’s heart tightened and then began to beat wildly.
As the people approached, Mu Anan’s heart beat more violently.
There were a total of three people.
There was a middle-aged woman dressed simply, a middle-aged man in a suit, and a young woman in a patient’s gown with bandages on her face.
Mu Anan did not recognize the middle-aged man and woman, but she was familiar with the young woman.
Tang Mi!
After recognizing Tang Mi, Mu Anan could determine that the middle-aged man and woman were Tang Mi’s parents.
“Miss Anan!” Tang Mi’s father spoke first.
The man was not old but showed a decadent and old feeling.
Tang Mi’s mother also called out, “Miss Anan!”
These two voices were very respectful.
They were like servants prostrating under a palace, respectfully calling out to the high and mighty princess.
Mu Anan did not say anything.
After Tang Mi’s parents respectfully greeted her, they sneaked a look towards Tang Mi and reached out to tug on Tang Mi’s clothes.
Half of Tang Mi’s face was wrapped in gauze, and there were still traces of blood on it.
She clutched her clothes tightly and stared into Mu Anan’s eyes, her face full of resentment and unwillingness.
But in the end, under the pressure of her parents, she lowered her head and said, “Miss Anan!”
This bowing of the head carried with it a kind of compromise.
For Tang Mi, a celebrity who had always been touted in high circles, it was humiliating!
However, Tang Mi had no choice but to bow down to Mu Anan.
Because….
