Chapter 17: Agreeing to Clarify

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although President Shi did not think that his daughter was in the wrong, he knew that in the eyes of the public, Lin Yin was the victim. Now that the matter had blown up, there was no point in removing the video. The only way was to get the person involved to clarify things. Only then could the Shi Corporation recover its losses.

At the thought of this, President Shi rubbed his hands and said to Lin Yin with a red face, “I came here today to ask you for help with something. I hope you can release a clarification statement to say that you were just rehearsing a short school drama at that time. It was all a misunderstanding, okay?”

Ridiculous. Now he wanted her to clarify things?

Lin Yin still remembered that he had replied disdainfully in the comments, “They’re just children fooling around, I’m baffled!”

Lin Yin lowered her head and thought for a moment before agreeing. “Then how should I make a statement?”

Seeing the little girl in front of him, President Shi felt that the problem had been resolved and he relaxed a lot.

He leaned against the sofa and said casually, as if he was instructing his subordinates, “You can attend the press conference with my daughter, Shi Dai, and just explain this matter clearly.”

On the other hand, Shi Dai was furious about the press conference that was about to start.

She had just experienced cyberbullying and had too many grievances in her heart. Now, in order to stop affecting her family and their business, she had to swallow her pride and shake hands with that bumpkin Lin Yin from the slums under the spotlight of the various media outlets.

Mrs. Shi advised gently, “Baby, look at the big picture. You can’t just let yourself be. Solve the problem first.”

“I don’t want to attend this press conference with that fake daughter!” Shi Dai was furious. She had been splashed with red wine and the video had spread everywhere. She had even been casually insulted and trampled on.

The comments section was filled with curses. They dug out all the dirt on everyone in their family and scolded them.

What was worse was that she was the one who released this video.

God! Who would be as stupid as her?!

“Fake daughter? Who are you talking about?” Mrs. Shi asked in confusion.

“Who else could it be? It’s that Lin Yin. The Su Family gave her a lot and she still wants to step on Feifei’s head. She’s not worthy of being the adopted daughter of the Su Family!”

Shi Dai was furious. She was unhappy at the mention of this.

“Hmph, can a pheasant become a phoenix? Everyone in the Su Family has been deceived by her. I don’t know why they would adopt such a daughter…” The more Shi Dai thought about her best friend, Su Fei, the angrier she became.

“Alright, let’s not care about other people’s family matters. And that Su Fei, you’ve been used by her every time and you’re still clueless!” Madam Shi had always disliked this daughter of the Su family. Ever since Shi Dai met Su Fei, her temper had become much worse.

“Mom, you don’t know how pitiful Feifei is. When she sees Lin Yin, she’s like a mouse that saw a cat.” Shi Dai refused to let go, trying to convince her mother to condemn Lin Yin with her.

How could an adopted daughter ride on a biological daughter’s head the moment she arrived? Something was wrong. A question mark was buried in Mrs. Shi’s heart. She had to investigate this matter.

The venue of the press conference was crowded. All the media outlets had reserved seats in advance. Someone had already sent a voice message and video to clarify the rumors online to pave the way for today’s press conference. It was said that they were rehearsing for a school play that had been captured by someone with ulterior motives and posted online to defame the Shi Corporation.

They had already sent a lawyer’s letter to legally protect their rights and punish the rumormongers with the law.

This time, the people involved came to clarify and resolve the misunderstanding. Actually, Lin Yin and the daughter of the Shi Corporation, Shi Dai, were very good friends.

Lin Yin had also read most of it online. In order to resolve this crisis, the Shi Corporation put in a lot of effort.

They might have investigated that account too. Lin Yin sneered. Previously, she had exposed an underground transaction of the corporation and was almost discovered. In order to protect her, the account was tied to a news reporter that moved overseas.

The account was still Lin Yin’s, but it could not be traced back to her.

President Shi had arranged for Lin Yin and Shi Dai to go to the venue of the press conference in advance and wait in a studio. It was also a good opportunity for them to rehearse their lines in advance to avoid mistakes.

When Shi Dai saw Lin Yin, she was smug. This b*tch was so arrogant that day, but today, didn’t she still have to lower herself and apologize and listen to her father’s arrangements to explain to the public that it was just a misunderstanding?

She had to seize the opportunity to teach Lin Yin a lesson and let her experience what it was like to be embarrassed online!

At the thought of this, Shi Dai raised her chin and smiled disdainfully.

Lin Yin didn’t need to look to know what she was thinking. However, this didn’t matter. She could just do whatever she wanted!
