Chapter 799 - 792: War Officially Begins (Part 1)
Leng Liewei’s surgery was very successful. Bai Yiran temporarily entrusted the company’s affairs to Wang Wei and Anna. The matter of changing management rights has temporarily reached a conclusion, and Bai Yiran didn’t want Cheng Gang to continue worrying, so she let him leave first, promising to notify him of any updates immediately.
Although Cheng Gang was concerned for his niece, there were some things that he, as a maternal uncle, couldn’t really help with, so he accepted Bai Yiran’s suggestion to leave first, assuring that he’d be ready to help whenever needed.
Now the entire burden of the Leng Family rested on Bai Yiran’s shoulders; it was not easy for her to shoulder this responsibility. Today’s emergency shareholder meeting was just one of many challenges, with various difficulties yet to confront her head-on.
Yet the most difficult challenge was finding Leng Yichen.
When Bai Yiran arrived at the hospital, many reporters who had come upon hearing the news had already gathered at the entrance. Seeing Bai Yiran, the reporters flocked to her.
Wang Hai had been left at the hospital by Bai Yiran to look after Leng Liewei. Upon noticing reporters gathering at the hospital entrance, Wang Hai had already summoned the bodyguards under his command, some to stay by Leng Liewei’s side and others downstairs awaiting Bai Yiran’s arrival.
Seeing Bai Yiran surrounded by reporters, the well-trained bodyguards enclosed Bai Yiran, maintaining a safe distance between her and the reporters.
"Is Chairman Leng hospitalized because he heard Mr. Leng was missing due to the explosion in F Country?"
"Is there any news about Leng Yichen now?"
"Is the explosion incident really only targeting the government of F Country?"
"What’s your view on Huamei International’s stock market decline now?"
"We’ve heard there was an emergency shareholder meeting just held, what were the resolutions at the meeting?"
Each question from the reporters rushed towards Bai Yiran, who pressed her lips tightly and remained silent. The reporters, however, did not cease questioning due to her silence and kept repeating those few questions tirelessly.
Suddenly, one reporter asked, "What do you think are the chances of Mr. Leng surviving?"
Upon hearing this question, Bai Yiran stood still, her eyes determined as she looked at the reporter, then faced all the cameras, and said word by word, "Leng Yichen is definitely still alive!"
"Is this your personal speculation or—"
Before the reporter could finish, Bai Yiran directly responded, "This is not my speculation; this is the truth!"
After speaking, Bai Yiran said no more and quickened her pace into the hospital under the protection of the bodyguards.
The reporters were blocked outside the door by the hospital’s security, watching Bai Yiran’s back, not quite convinced of her determined words.
The explosion incident was extraordinarily devastating; according to insider information, the number of casualties was increasing, with F Country’s police continuously searching for victims and bodies from beneath the collapsed ruins.
There still was no news about Leng Yichen, which raised the possibility that he could be buried somewhere under the debris—alive or dead, nobody could say.
Having dealt with the reporters, Bai Yiran appeared particularly exhausted. Wang Hai reported that Leng Liewei’s surgery was completed, he had been moved to a VIP ward and was now awake, but his emotions were somewhat unstable.
Bai Yiran swiftly made her way to Leng Liewei’s ward, and upon entering saw Leng Liewei looking deeply saddened. Seeing Bai Yiran, Luna acted like she had seen a savior and sighed, "Yiran, please comfort Old Leng."
