"Ting Yu, do you have anything you want to say to me?" After stepping out, Ling Feng asked Ting Yu in a small, private meeting room, "You didn't quite seem like yourself just now."

Liu Tingyu gave Ling Feng a sidelong glance, "How was that not like me?"

"I thought you were going to join Xiao Rui in persuading me, but to my surprise, you actually took my side!" Ling Feng wrapped his arm around Liu Tingyu with a chuckle, "Indeed, you're my wife!"

Liu Tingyu pushed Ling Feng away and said, "The reason I want you to teach those people a lesson is that they have gone too far! We went to the hospital intending to visit the patients, but we didn't expect to be stopped by a crowd of relatives as soon as we arrived at the ward. They wouldn't listen to our explanation and kept cursing us relentlessly!"

"What made me even angrier was that they demanded a million in compensation and threatened to take Chaoyang Group to court if we didn't pay up!" Liu Tingyu said indignantly, "I actually felt sorry for them at first, but then I realized that they had completely lost their reason. They didn't go after Huiju Group, they didn't seek out the real culprits but instead turned their fists on us. It's just not seeing right from wrong!"

A cold light flickered in Ling Feng's eyes, "Ting Yu, did you get hurt?"

"You're only thinking of me now?" Liu Tingyu glanced at Ling Feng, "Don't worry, I'm fine! That person was about to hit me, but Sister Yun stepped in front of me, so it was her hand that got hit instead."

Ling Feng nodded slowly. Even though the other party was the victim, that didn't mean that the whole world had to make way for them, nor did it mean they had the right to hurt others at will!

Moreover, Ling Feng had never been one to reason with others, no matter the circumstances. If someone hurt his loved ones, even if the other party was right, what would that matter to him?

"I'm not the Buddha Jade Emperor. I don't care about the world's rights and wrongs; I only care about the people who matter to me! Since you've hurt them, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Ling Feng thought to himself.

By evening, the Liangbao Health Products poisoning scandal had escalated. All major media were reporting on it, and although Chaoyang Group had issued a new statement to replace the initial one, someone had taken a screenshot of the original and saved it.

What followed was a torrent of abuse, as if everything that happened was due to Chaoyang Group's disregard for the public's safety for their own selfish interests. With some internet trolls' encouragement, many people had lodged complaints with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, hoping that the Yanjing City Bureau would conduct a thorough investigation into Chaoyang Group.

At the same time, some so-called experts and scholars also stepped forward. They "incisively" pointed out that the incident was entirely due to Chaoyang Group's inadequate technology, claiming selling unrefined techniques to the manufacturer led to the current situation. Therefore, the manufacturer and consumers were both victims who had suffered significant losses, and the only profiteer was Chaoyang Group.

Some experts even suggested that Chaoyang Group should promptly admit their mistakes, compensate the manufacturer for losses, and cover the patients' medical expenses to seek the public's forgiveness.

Of course, there were one or two experts who, from a more reasonable perspective, voiced that the incident had little to do with Chaoyang Group. Instead, it was the manufacturer's lack of strict quality control that had led to the problem!

However, their blogs were quickly overrun by netizens, who accused them of taking money to betray their conscience, called them fake experts, and wished them an early death...

Under such a powerful offensive, although other experts agreed with this view, they no longer dared to step forward!

The trend was now clear: vilifying Chaoyang Group was seen as conscientious and politically correct. Speaking for Chaoyang Group was viewed as kneeling for money, as a malignancy in the industry!

With a bang, Yun Hanrui fiercely threw the remote control onto the coffee table as the so-called expert on TV talked on and on.

"Sister Yun, don't be angry anymore. When the truth comes out, everyone will naturally understand!" Liu Tingyu sat beside Yun Hanrui, taking her hand and saying.

Both of them were at Ling Feng's house at the moment. With a hint of despair, Yun Hanrui said, "It's impossible! Ting Yu, even if the truth is revealed in the end, there will still be a large number of people who won't believe it, because they'll only believe what they want to believe, not the real truth. Chaoyang Group's reputation... it's ruined in my hands!"

As she spoke, tears began to stream down Yun Hanrui's cheeks. She had been contacting media outlets all afternoon, hoping to find someone willing to report the story fairly and justly. But those in the media were noncommittal, claiming they would certainly respect the truth and vindicate Chaoyang Group.

But their actions were more ruthless than ever!

Yun Yang had laid a solid foundation for Chaoyang Group, so although Yun Hanrui had experienced some setbacks, she had never truly faced a life-or-death crisis—until now. In just half a year, she had faced two, with the leak scandal being one, and now this poisoning scandal.

Although the previous scandal had been smoothly handled with Ling Feng's assistance, this time, Yun Hanrui wanted to solve it with her own power. She wanted to prove herself, to stand taller before Ling Feng!

What she didn't know was that this incident wasn't just propelled by one person, but by a group, a group that represented the upper echelons of Yanjing's power structure!

Yun Hanrui wanted to tackle the situation with her own strength, but the success rate seemed too low thus far. Her opponents had mobilized resources and connections far beyond what Yun Hanrui could access!

This is the way of the world. Sometimes, the truth people see is built upon lies; it's the truth that someone wants you to see. The real truth is buried under various tactics and conspiracies, underneath anger and bias, never seeing the light of day!

Yun Hanrui cried, because seeing all this made her feel a hint of despair. "Three men make a tiger, and collective mouths can melt metal."

Liu Tingyu handed Yun Hanrui a tissue, "Sister Yun, don't despair. Even if we're out of strategies, we must have faith in Ling Feng, right?"

"Ling Feng!" Yun Hanrui gradually stopped crying, and a determined look appeared in her eyes, "But... does Ling Feng really have a way?"

"Of course!" Liu Tingyu said confidently, "He's the man chosen by both of us, isn't he?"

Yun Hanrui took a deep breath, gripping Liu Tingyu's hand firmly, she nodded and said, "That's right, he's... he's our man. We must believe in him!"

Meanwhile, Ling Feng stood at the entrance of Yanjing Central Hospital.
