The butler knew that with such a significant issue, the old master would definitely want to see it for himself and hurriedly asked the driver to prepare the car.

Huo Zhenxuan also harbored a bellyful of anger towards Mu Qingran, following behind the old master and got into the car together.

————***——————

At the conference hall of the Shenghua Grand Hotel.

Behind the rectangular conference table, Mu Qingran wept as she bitterly recounted the misdeeds done to her by Huo Family’s second young master, Huo Zhenxuan.

"Miss Mu, the Huo Family has a distinguished reputation, you can’t just accuse the second young master with words alone."

Mu Qingran gave a cold laugh, exuding an endless slyness, "Since I’ve called all the reporters here today, I’m definitely not just relying on words."

With that, she picked up the mobile phone on the table, turned it on, and then pointed the microphone towards the phone.

Immediately, the sound of a man and a woman arguing echoed throughout the room.

It was the entire conversation from the day Mu Qingran visited Huo Garden to demand a billion from Huo Zhenxuan.

A few key sentences from the quarrel reverberated across the hall, leaving all the reporters dumbfounded.

"Huo Zhenxuan! If you don’t give me the money, I’ll sue you! If this scandal blows up, you’ll completely lose your position in the old man’s eyes, and in the Huo Family, you’ll have no ground to stand on! Then do you still think of entering the headquarters, still think of replacing your big brother as CEO? Haha, spit!"

It was the mad voice of Mu Qingran.

"...After so long, do you still have any evidence? Haha! Even if you have evidence, do you have the capital to sue the Huo Family? So what if I forced you? What about it? Bite me!"

It was the shameless voice of the Huo Family’s second young master.

...

The reporters held their recording pens, surprised, as they recorded every word of the male and female conversation from the phone.

A reporter extended the microphone onto the stage, "So you mean to say, when the Huo Family’s second young master married Miss Mu a while ago, it was also with ulterior motives?"

Mu Qingran sneered coldly, "Didn’t you hear clearly? In the recording, he said it himself, marrying me was only so he could use me and the child in my belly to win over the old master’s favor, all to scheme for the Huo Group!"

The reporters quickly captured the scandal involving the wealthy family using cameras and recording pens.

Mu Qingran’s expression changed, showing a touch of sorrow, and she cried on cue, "That is why I called this press conference today, to expose the evil deeds of Huo Shao. The law can no longer punish him, but I have to let everyone know, about the dirty scandals inside a wealthy family, let everyone know that in G City, the Huo Family, renowned for their virtue and prestige, also has such a son!"

After listening to this segment of the recording, the reporters also understood that Mu Qingran, having failed to get her money, decided to hold a press conference and was ready to discard her dignity, revealing the second young master’s scandal for a joint downfall.

However, this was good for the media, as they had explosive news to write about again.

Meanwhile, outside the conference hall door.

Huo Tianpei, who had arrived early, was trembling with rage, his cane barely steady in his grip.

He had planned to confront Mu Qingran inside, but upon hearing the recording, with all the evidence spectacularly laid out, Huo Tianpei trembled, almost certain about how the newspapers would exaggerate the matter tomorrow!

Under normal circumstances, the Huo Family could absolutely keep the media under control!

But today, Mu Qingran had acted first, calling a press conference without any warning and the recording had been made by reporters; how could the story be suppressed now?

Huo Tianpei glared fiercely at Huo Zhenxuan and barked, "Butler, let’s go!"

Listening to the recording from outside, Huo Zhenxuan’s eyes were also bloodshot with anger. He hadn’t expected that when Mu Qingran came to him that day, she also had a plan in place – the secret recording!

This woman was indeed deep and calculating!

Now great, a press conference later, the anger the old master had just calmed reignited!

This time, it’s even more difficult to improve his image in front of the old master!

The rage surging within Huo Zhenxuan made him lose all reason, his fists clenched until they creaked.

Just then, the press conference in the hall had ended.

Journalists, one wave after another, left the hall to prepare tomorrow’s news articles.

Mu Qingran stood up from behind the conference table, finally having released her pent-up fury and walked toward the exit, unaware that a figure was quietly following her, seething with anger.

As she walked out of the Shenghua Grand Hotel, Mu Qingran arrived at the roadside, while under the scorching sun, she hailed a taxi.

She was currently staying at a hotel. Fortunately, she had taken her luggage with her the day she left Huo Garden. Her luggage contained some savings from over the years, so at least she wasn’t left homeless on the streets.

After resting at the hotel for a few days to regain some strength and spirit, she immediately reached out to all the major media in G City.

Did Huo Zhenxuan think he would get away scot-free after she had become so destitute? Wishful thinking!

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approached from behind, and a man’s furious voice rang out, "Slut!"

Mu Qingran startled, recognizing the voice without having to look; she turned around and saw Huo Zhenxuan, his features twisted with rage, and mocked, "Oh, it’s the second young master. Do you need something from me?"

Huo Zhenxuan, enraged, said, "You slut, why did you hold a press conference! Why did you do this to me!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Mu Qingran, stepping forward in high heels, looked at Huo Zhenxuan, who resembled a stray dog, and laughed playfully, "What’s the matter? Did the old master despise you? Serves you right! That’s what you get for not giving me money!"

Huo Zhenxuan couldn’t stand it any longer. As the Huo Family’s second son, he had never endured such treatment and, wishing he could strangle her, he raised his hand and with a "smack," viciously slapped the woman’s face!

The blow was so heavy that Mu Qingran stumbled back several steps and, from the edge of the road, directly took a tumble and fell into the traffic-laden street!

A sharp screech of brakes, accompanied by a woman’s scream, echoed at the entrance to the Shenghua Grand Hotel!

Huo Zhenxuan awoke from his rage, stood frozen, and watched in horror as one of Mu Qingran’s legs got caught under the wheel of a car that couldn’t stop in time!

The traffic on the road descended into chaos at once!

The sounds of the crowd swelled as onlookers gathered at the roadside.

Some journalists who had just come out from the press conference and hadn’t left yet saw it was Mu Qingran and instantly rushed over with their cameras.

"A car accident, come and see!"

"I saw it; it was that man who pushed the woman into the middle of the road."

"I saw it too!"

...

Several reporters began to snap photos fiercely at Huo Zhenxuan.

All eyes converged on Huo Zhenxuan.

He turned deathly pale, and his legs began to tremble.

At this moment, the police, who had arrived quickly, got out of their patrol car and walked straight up to Huo Zhenxuan, "Sir, please come with us."

——————***——————

Mu Qingran held a press conference to expose the crimes of the Huo Family’s second son, but in a fit of rage, he pushed her into the path of oncoming traffic, resulting in the amputation of her leg.

This news made the front-page headline in all the newspapers and magazines in G City the next day, spreading throughout the city.
