Perfect Secret Love: The Bad New Wife is a Little Sweet Novel - Chapter 256
Chapter 256: Watch a show
Upon hearing the teenager’s so-called bargaining chip, everyone in the meeting room was taken aback, including the main person involved—Han Xianyu. He didn’t look as calm as before. Han Xianyu finally raised his head slowly with a mixed expression in his blank and numb eyes as he looked in the direction of the teenager.
Zhou Wenbin gave a contemptuous look, “What a joke! Who do you think you are?”
Fei Yang was stunned for a moment before he retorted, “Zhou Wenbin, the boss hasn’t even said a word, yet you’re over here being a pain. Are you scared someone’s able to prove Xianyu’s innocence?”
Zhou Wenbin sneered, “Fei Yang, I think you’ve lost your mind. This incident is all because of the pressure from the public; even Worldwide doesn’t have the ability to prove Xian Yu’s innocence, yet you think this guy can change the public’s view? Who on earth is he?”
Although what Zhou Wenbin said wasn’t nice, Fei Yang knew he was right and kept silent.
The teenager was unbothered about Zhou Wenbin. He looked at Chu Hongguang and said very calmly, “Chairman Chu, since Worldwide is at its wit’s end, why not give it a try?
“If you win, obviously the outcome would be favourable but even if you don’t, there’s nothing to lose—there would be no negative impact on Worldwide, right?”
Chu Hongguang considered the offer for a moment before finally responding, ” Mr Ye, right? I don’t care who you are but if you really can deliver what you mentioned and solve this crisis, then Worldwide would thank you indefinitely. But if you’re here to cause trouble, then…”
Chu Hongguang didn’t finish his sentence but everyone could see the warning and threat in his eyes.
The teenager smiled slightly like he didn’t notice the intimidation in Chu Hongguang’s eyes. “Chairman Chu’s a straightforward man. You’ll find out very soon whether what I said is the truth or not.”
“Oh? How would I find out?” Chu Hongguang raised his brows.
The teenager laughed, “Within seven days, I can prove Han Xianyu’s innocence.”
“Seven days?” A hint of suspicion appeared on Chu Hongguang’s face.
Zhou Wenbin’s expression changed and he suddenly stood up, pointing at the teenager. “Even if we let you give it a go, you can just tell us directly what great abilities you have. Why do you need to beat around the bush? I think you’re just bluffing and putting on a show!”
When he finished speaking, Zhou Wenbin turned to look at Chu Hongguang and said, “Chairman Chu, we really don’t know where this person came from. He’s so young; who knows what exactly his intentions are? How can we trust the words of a person like him so easily?”
Chu Hongguang furrowed his brows. His head was aching badly from all the squabbling around him. While he was still deep in thought, a hoarse voice suddenly interrupted the silence.
“I trust him.”
In the meeting room, everyone was startled and immediately turned towards the source of the voice.
And they realized that…
The person who spoke was actually the droopy-eyed and silent Han Xianyu.
Han Xianyu lifted his head and his haggard eyes met the glistening eyes of the teenager.
He took a deep breath, stood up, and scanned the people around him. His gaze finally stopped at Chu Hongguang—
“Chairman Chu, I trust him.”
Everybody had abandoned him but now, there was one person who stood up and wanted to prove his innocence.
Chu Hongguang’s expression was somewhat mixed. Han Xianyu hadn’t said a word since the start and this was the first comment he made.
Chu Hongguang sighed, “Alright then, Xianyu, it’s not like the company doesn’t want to help you. If this friend here really has an idea that works, I’ll give him my fullest support.”
After that, Chu Hongguang turned to the teenager, “What do you need us to do?”
The corners of the teenager’s lips curled upwards slyly, “Watch a show.”
