He hugged Xu Xuejiao and said with a smile: "Sister Xuejiao, I am Lu Yun, the bad guy! I saw you standing up for this girl just now, I am not kidding you, would you mind taking out a hundred thousand or eighty thousand to rescue her, or... fifty thousand will be fine?"

Xu Xuejiao shook her head slowly: "It's not convenient."

"How about this, you just hire her and I'll pay her salary. You don't have to pay a penny. Is that okay?" Lu Yun asked tentatively.

Xu Xuejiao still shook her head: "Oh, I get it, you are blackmailing me!"

Lu Yun got angry after hearing this: "What did I blackmail you for? You don't even have to pay, the person is yours, I work for you, and..."

"How can such a good thing happen to me?" Xu Xuejiao interrupted him, "You must want to arrange a business spy on my side. Don't think I'm easy to fool! I'm very smart!"

Lu Yun couldn't help but get angry: "How could she be a corporate spy? Even if she is, you can just assign her to a position where she has no access to any core information!"

Xu Xuejiao politely declined: "I am a doctor and I make medicine. The people I use must be reliable. This woman looks so servile to me. She doesn't look like a good person!"

Lu Yun completely exploded: "How could she not be a good person! She is the most filial, smartest, most capable, and most forbearing girl I have ever met!"

"She was a little girl who gave up her studies and came to work when she was a teenager because of her mother's illness. No one else wanted to be my secretary, but she heard that she could make a lot of money, even though she knew I was a playboy, a scumbag, and a bastard, she still came!"

"She has been with me for five years, working diligently and never making any mistakes! Every time I teased her, laughed at her, or peeked at her... she endured it silently! She did it just to make money to treat her mother's illness!"

"She was a little girl who took on all the rumors in the office by herself, never explaining or arguing. She endured the workplace harassment from a jerk like me every day at work, and she didn't go out for entertainment, consumption, or shopping after work... She only wore decent clothes for work, but she usually wore cheap clothes worth dozens of dollars. Do you know why?"

Lu Yun said angrily: "She is afraid of losing her job, so she wants to save as much money as possible to treat her mother's illness! How can a girl like this be a bad person? How can she look like a bad person?"

"Oh? You know her so well?" Lu Yun looked a little surprised. "We have known each other for five years. I have always thought that Xu Xuejiao is a kind, lovely, loving, enthusiastic and compassionate person. Whenever someone needs help, she always lends a hand to help others without hesitation. But now, I don't even know what I am saying..."

Lu Yun frowned, not knowing why he was so excited.

"What nonsense am I talking about here? This is the tone a male protagonist should have! What on earth am I doing?"

The two women looked at Lu Yun sitting depressedly on the chair, his elbows on his knees, rubbing his Jingming acupoints, looking very depressed.

Jiang Shihan was a little dazed.

Mr. Lu...is this how you see me?

Is he a kind, caring person?

Then why... does he always bully me? If he wants to help me, why doesn't he just help me directly? Why does he have to make me follow Mr. Xu?

Today's Lu Yun made her feel a little incredible.

"Brother Cheng Wen, my secretary sent me a message saying that the press conference is about to begin. I'll go and prepare first!" Xu Xuejiao said with a smile.

Lu Yun didn't look back, but just waved his hand, indicating "Go away quickly, devil."

Seeing Lu Yun whipping his arms like an electric fan, Xu Xuejiao held back her laughter, pushed the door open and left the room.

……

At the press conference, Lu Yun forced himself to stay alert and read the manuscript provided by the secretarial team.

Although the article was well written, it emphasized to a great extent that when faced with the decision between interests and morality, the Ninth Pharmaceutical Factory resolutely chose morality.

At the same time, they also promised the media and the public that the Ninth Pharmaceutical Factory would conduct a deep self-examination and internal investigation into the matter.

Sure enough, in the middle of the press conference, the phones of Lu Yun and other senior executives kept ringing, and the stock price fell alarmingly.

Normally, there would be no question-and-answer session at such an embarrassing press conference, but the reporters were unusually enthusiastic.

A reporter stood up and asked, "Mr. Lu, does this fake drug incident have some kind of symbolic significance? Will this kind of thing happen again in the future? How can your factory ensure that all kinds of drugs produced in the future are qualified products? Can you guarantee that the drugs produced and sold by your factory have not had similar incidents?"

Jiang Shihan immediately said: "I'm sorry, we don't have a question-and-answer session, please..."

However, Lu Yun waved his hand and moved closer to the microphone: "If it had happened in the past, we would have held a press conference long ago. If it happens in the future, we will hold another press conference. I cannot guarantee that our production process will always be perfect and impeccable, but I can guarantee that if such a thing happens once, we will destroy it once and hold such a press conference once. In fact, we dare to hold such a press conference because we, the Ninth Pharmaceutical Factory, always give priority to morality over profit."

Jiang Shihan was a little surprised.

At the press conference, the beautiful female reporter asked a question that made Lu Yun feel very embarrassed: "I heard that you are going to hold an engagement ceremony with Miss Shen Jingyan, the executive president of Qianfeng Group. Is this true? There are rumors outside that you have been pursuing Miss Leng for a long time, and this time you used your family power to force the Leng family to submit. Is this true?"

Jiang Shihan quickly replied: "Sorry, this matter has nothing to do with the theme of this press conference. We will not answer such questions."

But the female reporter did not give up and continued to ask: "There are rumors that you are a profit-seeking capitalist who only cares about profits and ignores morality. Is this destruction and press conference just to convey to the outside world your pharmaceutical company's serious and responsible attitude?"

Lu Yun felt a headache. This female reporter was too difficult to deal with. He suddenly thought of Ye Fan, his friend, who was also a man who liked to collect women. His life was like a big drama, full of drama and danger. But Lu Yun realized that he could not offend the female reporter at the press conference, so he smiled and replied: "I am a capitalist, but whether I am profit-driven or not is not up to me, you have the final say. As for whether this press conference is a show, it is not up to me, you have the final say. But I did convey my attitude to the outside world. One is a deep self-examination, and the other is that we are serious and responsible. Thank you."

Jiang Shihan quickly added: "Thank you all for coming. Today's press conference ends here."

Lu Yun stood up and left, and the security team immediately escorted him out. A group of reporters surrounded him, especially the female reporter, who squeezed in the front and asked a series of questions: "Mr. Lu! The pharmaceutical factory has such a big mistake, can a press conference make everything disappear? Will there be similar mistakes in the production process of the pharmaceutical factory in the future? Was this mistake man-made or accidental? If it was man-made, who should be held responsible for this huge mistake..."
