He Qinzhou clenched his teeth and glared angrily at He Qi.
His cane, which he was gripping tightly, was also trembling slightly.
"Qinzhou!"
Seeing this, Lin Wan'er quickly helped him up.
This scene was witnessed by everyone.
No one expected that He Qinzhou would face this day.
abjection!
sad!
failure!
These words, which should never have appeared on He Qinzhou, have now become synonymous with him.
Although it's a competition among the younger generation.
But now, He Qinzhou, leaning on a cane, struggles to support his ailing body with the help of his female companion.
His body was hunched over, and he was extremely weak.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh, "It really is time to replace the He family representative."
This marks the changing of the guard among the younger generation of the He family!
Among the crowd, many young men and women from the He family's branches looked at He Qinzhou with extremely complicated expressions.
Fortunately, disdainfully, regretfully.
"You shouldn't come out with your body like this. Go back and rest properly. Otherwise, I'm worried about whether you'll live to see the end of the selection process."
He Qi's voice rang out again, his sharp and sarcastic words relentlessly attacking He Qinzhou's dignity.
He Qinzhou's once arrogant and domineering image has completely collapsed.
In the He family, his prestige has vanished!
"He Qi, I will not give up!"
He Qinzhou gritted his teeth, his expression extremely determined.
Ignoring He Qi's sarcasm, he stepped forward and walked into the arena.
The expressions on the faces of those around him had completely changed.
There is no more respect, no more fear, only contempt.
A fallen lion is worse than a dog. This is the most accurate description of He Qinzhou at this moment!
However, unnoticed by the others, He Qinzhou revealed a wicked smile, as if his plan had succeeded.
Seeing that the other party was determined to participate, He Qi did not continue to obstruct them.
It's not about whether He Qinzhou is qualified to participate.
Rather, there were too many guests today, and he didn't want to lose face for the He family by suppressing He Qinzhou.
The suppression of Heqin Prefecture has been sufficient.
If this continues, those people will laugh at us.
He Qi withdrew his gaze, put his hands behind his back, and left to begin the final preparations for the press conference.
The guests took their seats, and the scene became noisy again.
As a cultivator at the fourth level of the Void Refinement stage, He Qinzhou had extremely keen hearing.
You can hear the whispers around you very clearly.
Those people have stopped talking about business and started talking about themselves.
She compared her own wretchedness and destitution with He Qi's current glory.
Seeing this, He Qinzhou smiled with satisfaction.
This is the play with the largest audience he has ever performed in.
So many that they're scattered all over the entire planet!
The press conference isn't over yet, but what happened today will soon spread throughout China and even the entire planet Earth!
Soon everyone will know that He Qinzhou is in decline and has reached its end.
Only Mr. He remains in the He family.
That's He Qi!
In that case, he would have achieved his goal.
"Does your wound still hurt?"
Lin Wan'er asked with concern.
"It doesn't hurt."
He Qinzhou shook his head.
"Who are you trying to fool? If it didn't hurt, why couldn't you even stand up straight just now?"
Lin Wan'er asked with a worried expression.
He Qinzhou was speechless for a moment. Even if he said it didn't hurt, no one would believe him. What could he do?
Shouldn't you be the one asking this?
He Qinzhou smiled mischievously.
"ask me?"
Lin Wan'er was somewhat puzzled.
But the next moment, her pretty face turned red.
The intense scene from last night is still fresh in my mind; it turns out He Qinzhou was teasing me again.
"You hate it!"
Lin Wan'er playfully punched He Qinzhou's shoulder.
Not long after.
The press conference has officially begun.
All the guests were seated, and the scene was filled with the media's cameras and microphones.
Even the employees of the He Group turned their attention to it.
Behind the windows of the surrounding buildings, pairs of curious eyes stared intently at the scene.
In front of everyone, an old man walked up to the high platform.
In an instant, the scene fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
This is an elder from a branch of the He family. Although he is from a branch, he made significant contributions in his youth and therefore enjoys considerable prestige within the He family.
As the old man recounted the events, the press conference began to proceed as planned.
The whole process was old-fashioned and boring, and only some older people listened with great interest and relish.
Even Lin Wan'er was getting sleepy.
A pair of crystal-clear eyes blinked, looking somewhat drowsy.
"This is so boring!"
Lin Wan'er muttered to herself, glancing at He Qinzhou beside her, only to find him looking in one direction, seemingly listening intently.
"Honey, aren't you sleepy?"
Upon seeing this, Lin Wan'er couldn't help but ask.
"Get used to it."
He had experienced countless meetings like this, which were utterly boring from start to finish.
Often, the most important things are hidden within those lengthy words, and if you get distracted, you might really miss the key information.
But at this moment, his attention was not on the platform.
In a corner of the audience, in a spot visible only to those in the front row, He Qi was talking to a woman in business attire.
Others might be curious about the woman's identity, but he wouldn't be.
"How much time has passed, and the development has been so fast."
A slight smile appeared on He Qinzhou's lips.
It seems I really didn't waste my time with this woman.
The efficiency is simply terrifying!
"What the hell are you looking at?"
Lin Wan'er, who was standing to the side, finally noticed that He Qinzhou seemed to be looking elsewhere.
"Alright, now let's invite Mr. He Qi, the person in charge of the listing project of He's Group, to come to the stage and give a speech!"
The old man extended a formal invitation to He Qi.
Chapter 353: I Want to Learn a Foreign Language
On the high platform, the huge LED screen flickered, and the press conference finally moved on to the next stage.
Down in the audience, He Qi was still clearly reluctant to leave, but Michiko whispered something in his ear, and He Qi excitedly went up on stage.
"Congratulations, Qinzhou!"
Seeing that the other party did not respond to her, Lin Wan'er gritted her teeth, reached out her jade hand, and pinched his waist directly.
"hiss"
Even He Qinzhou, a cultivator at the fourth level of the Void Refinement Realm, still felt a shiver run through his body when he was caught off guard.
"No wonder you looked so energetic, you were looking at another woman!"
Lin Wan'er looked at He Qinzhou with a resentful expression.
"Is that woman pretty? I couldn't take my eyes off her!"
Pointing at Michiko not far away, Lin Wan'er questioned her.
"It's beautiful. Didn't you see it yesterday?"
He Qinzhou answered in a very serious manner.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan'er was taken aback and looked at Michiko again.
Only then did he realize that the woman He Qinzhou was looking at was the same one who had come to see him the night before!
At the same time Lin Wan'er saw her, Michiko seemed to be looking over at the same time as they were telepathically connected.
After bypassing Lin Wan'er, Michiko saw He Qinzhou, smiled, and nodded slightly.
Her eyes and brows exude a natural allure that captivates the soul!
With just a glance, He Qinzhou understood what the other party meant.
"He Qi has completely fallen into the trap!"
But Lin Wan'er didn't see it that way.
She only saw the two exchanging glances, completely ignoring her, a living, breathing person!
"Congratulations, Qinzhou!"
Lin Wan'er's breasts heaved, her fists clenched tightly. If there hadn't been so many people around, she would have already lost control.
"If you like her so much, go with her!"
"It's not impossible..."
He Qinzhou thought about it carefully, and the answer he came up with almost made Lin Wan'er vomit blood.
"you……!"
