Everyone asked about Jin Mingzhu's recovery with concern, and Mingzhu responded one by one.

Jin's mother no longer had any thoughts of holding anyone accountable. She hugged Jin Mingzhu, looked at the wound and blew on it gently, feeling very distressed.

Sheng Yichen was browsing his phone when a trending search caught his attention. He clicked on it and took a look: Jin Mingzhu's identity was exposed.

After a moment's silence, he finally spoke.

"It seems that Sister Mingzhu's identity has been exposed."

Jin Minghao immediately snatched the phone. Someone had sent out some important identity information of Jin Mingzhu. In the end, the Jin family failed to protect Kanan.

After scanning the comments, most of them expressed shock at Mingzhu's identity. Her related information was also constantly being dug up, and the Internet was full of criticism: She was accused of misconduct and seducing Gu Huaijin.

The daughter of the Jin Group was caught up in negative news, which also had an adverse impact on the Jin Group's corporate image: product sales continued to fall, the stock market was also bleak... Jin Minghao hurriedly called to arrange for someone to deal with it.

The Sheng family mansion fell into chaos, and the Gu Group was also surrounded by reporters.

In the president's office, Chen Chuan looked at Gu Huaijin standing beside him. He, who had planned all this, remained calm and silent.

Chen Chuan couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Gu, how should we respond to those reporters?"

"Arrange a press conference. I will make a public response to these matters." The man said briefly.

Chen Chuan agreed, turned around and went out to make the arrangements.

Soon, the reporters were invited into the reception room of Gu Group. When they saw Gu Huaijin, they rushed to ask questions.

"Boss Gu, is the person involved in this incident the legendary daughter of Hong Kong City?"

"Mr. Gu, what is your relationship with Miss Jin Mingzhu?"

"Mr. Gu, please respond."

"Mr. Gu..."

Chen Chuan arranged for someone to stop the reporters.

"Dear media friends, President Gu will answer your questions one by one. Don't worry."

Gu Huaijin sat upright in his seat, waiting for the situation to calm down before speaking.

"First of all, thank you for your attention to this incident. Regarding this incident, I would like to make the following response..."

Gu Huaijin clarified that the photo was taken accidentally when he was helping Jin Mingzhu out of trouble.

He had been fond of Jin Mingzhu for a long time, and immediately made a promise: this incident had damaged Jin Mingzhu's reputation, and he would take on the responsibilities he should take and propose marriage to the Jin family in Gangcheng.

There was prolonged applause in the meeting hall, and everyone present was impressed by Gu Huaijin's sense of responsibility and responsible demeanor.

Inside the Sheng family mansion, everyone also watched the press conference of the Gu Group. When they heard Gu Huaijin say that he would propose to the Jin family in Gangcheng, everyone looked at the stunned Jin Mingzhu with complicated expressions.

Mingzhu didn't know how to react. She quickly went through every detail of her interactions with Gu Huaijin in her mind. He had confessed his love for her many times and helped her teach a lesson to those who bullied her... Suddenly, she remembered Gu Huaijin's warning to her, and she suddenly understood.

The mastermind behind all this is Gu Huaijin. If it weren't for Gu Huaijin's permission, which media would dare to risk offending the Gu family and post news about Gu Huaijin on the Internet? All of this was Gu Huaijin's work, and his purpose was to force her to submit.

Jin Mingzhu suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Gu Huaijin was too accurate and too ruthless. He earned a good reputation for being responsible, but also forced her into a dead end.

What choice will the Jin family make between Gu Huaijin and Xu Yang? The result is self-evident.

Madam Sheng said, "I watched Huaijin grow up. He is an excellent child and a perfect match for our family."

"Xianxian, are you willing?" Jin Minghao asked.

"No! I don't want to. Brother, mother, I don't have any romantic feelings for Gu Huaijin, and I told him that a long time ago." Jin Mingzhu cried and kept shaking her head.

"Xianxian, you should break up with that child." Mrs. Jin's voice was not loud, but her tone was firm and could not be refused.

"Mother! Xu Yang treats me so well. I just want to be with him." Jin Mingzhu choked up.

"Mother, I beg you, please..." Mingzhu knelt on the ground and hugged her mother's knees.

"You have no say in this matter!" Mrs. Jin hardened her heart and pushed her daughter away. Compared with Xu Yang and Gu Huaijin, there was no doubt that she fell in love with Gu Huaijin, and only Gu Huaijin could protect her lifelong peace.

Jin Minghao stepped forward and helped Mingzhu up. His mother always kept her word, and this matter might be beyond redemption.

Feeling a deep despair and powerlessness, Jin Mingzhu lay on the carpet and sobbed. Her Xu Yang was so, so good.

They were so close to happiness. Why? Why did she have to meet this terrible man, Gu Huaijin?

After the press conference, Gu Huaijin ran straight to Sheng's house. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Jin Mingzhu lying on the ground, crying helplessly.

His heart tightened, and he stepped forward, grasped her slender arm, and pulled her up.

Mingzhu was a little confused when she was suddenly pulled up. When she saw who it was, she pushed him away fiercely. Gu Huaijin, he dared to come!

Mingzhu stared at him intently. She hated Gu Huaijin, hated his insidiousness and cunningness, and his unscrupulous means to achieve his goals.

Ignoring the hatred in Mingzhu's eyes, Gu Huaijin smiled softly, greeted Mr. and Mrs. Sheng and Mrs. Jin who were sitting above, and then spoke apologetically.

"Aunt, I was inconsiderate and let the secretly photographed photos spread out. This incident has caused immeasurable losses to both Gu and Jin Group. It also damaged Miss Mingzhu's innocence.

I will take on my responsibilities as a man. Ask my parents to come forward and propose marriage to the Jin family as soon as possible. Once the two families become friends, these rumors will naturally fall apart."

Mrs. Jin looked at Gu Huaijin. Although he was young, he spoke appropriately and his every move showed his nobility. Compared with Xu Yang, she was very satisfied with this son-in-law.

"Last time you saved Qianqian, we should go to your house to express our gratitude. Now the public opinion is in turmoil, and it has a great impact on both families. This way of handling it is naturally appropriate. But my family will never disregard Qianqian's happiness for our own selfish interests."

Gu Huaijin said frankly, "I have admired Miss Mingzhu for a long time and have met her many times before. If it weren't for this incident, I would have proposed to Miss Mingzhu. If I get Mingzhu, I will definitely treasure her."

Mrs. Jin nodded. Jin Minghao looked complicated: My sister obviously has no feelings for Gu Huaijin, is mother forcing her like this?

Jin Mingzhu watched Gu Huaijin's exquisite performance from the side, and she suddenly felt like a moth that had accidentally fallen into a spider web, unable to break free despite her best efforts.

Gu Huaijin is indeed a master hunter, calculating and scheming. No! She will never give in, she is Jin Mingzhu, she is just herself.

"I don't agree!" Mingzhu suddenly said loudly.

"Mother, my daughter only wants to be with Xu Yang. I have already accepted his proposal." She stretched out her hand, and there was a faint light on the ring on her ring finger.

"Jin Mingzhu! Since ancient times, parents' orders and matchmakers' words have always been the same. The Jin family will never agree to you marrying that poor boy!"

"If you knew what was best for you, you would have stopped it earlier. Otherwise..."

She couldn't help but hear the threat implied in her mother's words, her face turned pale, and a wave of pain that was about to be destroyed invaded her. She collapsed on the sofa, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

Seeing her like this, Gu Huaijin looked at her with a complicated expression, but in the end he said nothing and stood up to leave.
