Deliberate favoritism, the cold-faced president surrenders obediently

The man looked calm, his lips curled into a smile, and with his bony fingers he held the remote control and handed it to the old man, then pressed it.

Before the old man could react, real-time reports from the press conference came on TV.

On the TV screen, Zhou He, seated at the center of the podium, was answering reporters' questions. "Mr. Li and Ms. Lin are in a normal relationship. The accusations and revelations against Mr. Lu are acts of revenge and are currently being handled by the police. Reporters, please face the facts and report truthfully. Thank you for your cooperation."

The old man was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Li Yanxiu in disbelief.

The old man was shocked by his audacity and self-assertion, "Li Yanxiu, who told you to do this?"

"They are reporting untrue news. I might as well tell them the truth directly."

Li Yanxiu said in a businesslike manner, "Besides, we have to thank them for providing this organic traffic, which we can use reasonably to promote the company."

Mr. Li's expression darkened. "Are you willing to appear in public with an image of being involved with such a questionable woman?"

"Master, that's not what you said."

"This news is currently trending, firmly at the top of the search list. As long as we control public opinion and capitalize on this wave of traffic, we can better showcase the Li Group."

What happened in the evening led to a press conference held in the early morning. Li Yanxiu immediately stepped forward to admit the relationship. His outstanding appearance and responsible attitude made him instantly famous. In addition, with his special family background and experience, he bravely admitted the rumored relationship with the heroine, which also won him countless fans. With such emotional intelligence and IQ, he was praised as the most wise leader of the Li Group.

"The trending topics are now under control. This incident will not have a negative impact on the company. It may even be an opportunity for the Li Group to promote itself. The subsequent investment and marketing plans will be delivered to you tomorrow."

"Once the stock market opens tomorrow, you'll be able to see how much money this press conference has earned. Grandpa, you might even be secretly happy."

The extreme anger in Mr. Li's expression gradually dissipated. He nodded with satisfaction and laughed, "Yan Xiu, well done!"

Li Yanxiu understood something from her satisfied eyes. He knew that he had won this battle without the smoke of gunpowder.

No one ever truly cares about anyone else's good. After all, people only focus on their own core interests and show goodwill for your own good, but when their real interests are violated, they will draw their swords and fight back.

As for him and Lin Qian, they would never waste their time on people or things that had no benefits.

Before leaving, Mr. Li stopped him and said, "Yan Xiu, although you handled this crisis well."

Mr. Li's tone suddenly changed, and he said sternly, "I don't care what your relationship with Miss Lin is like in private, but you know that our Li family will never allow a woman like this to become your wife."

Li Yanxiu sneered, "Then what kind of woman do you think can enter our Li family and become your granddaughter-in-law?"

"She must be the daughter of a prominent noble family, someone of prestige and learning."

Old Master Li said firmly, "Yan Xiu, you will take over the Li Group in the future. An ordinary person like her is not suitable to be your wife."

"In a few days, Madam Jiang will arrive in the capital. I have already made an appointment to meet with her to discuss your marriage with Zining."

Li Yanxiu's eyes darkened.

It was obviously not a coincidence that Madam Jiang returned to China in person and happened to have an appointment with Mr. Li to meet.

He was the last one to know about such a big thing.

A hint of coldness appeared in Li Yanxiu's eyes. "Grandpa, I don't want to..."

He interrupted him directly and ordered without hesitation, "Yan Xiu, you must listen to me on this matter. Also, if you want all the shares of the Li Group, then I will hand them over to you after you and Zi Ning are married."

Li Yanxiu didn't say anything, but stared at Old Man Li for a few seconds, his hands clenched into fists on both sides.

After a long while, he finally spoke, "Grandpa, let's talk about this later."

Of course he understood that Mr. Li was threatening him with the shares he held. Now he wanted him to exchange his marriage for the control of the Li Group. If he wanted to get the shares from Mr. Li, he was afraid that this matter could not continue like this.

Old Master Li patted his shoulder and said, "Yan Xiu, I know you will make the right choice."

"As for your matter with that young lady, you can just give her some money and cut off all ties with her, and then you will become the true owner of the Li Group."

"Grandpa is old and no longer has the energy to continue working, so please don't let him down."

Hearing this, the man's eyes darkened.

For so many years, he has worked diligently in the Li Group, just to get this position.

Now, he only needs to sever his relationship with Lin Qian and marry according to his grandfather's wishes to realize this wish. He was a little hesitant to make a decision for a while.

His Adam's apple rolled, his emotions hard to hide, "I understand, Grandpa."
