Chapter 198: The press conference (2)

“Yes. She is Mrs. Liu Nana now.”

Everybody had a hard time digesting this. There were speculations about divorce but nothing about Jinhai’s second marriage.

Tears threatened to fall from Xiang Wei’s eyes. “As expected, Huian was enraged with this fraud. She was heartbroken. Before we could do anything, she already jumped on the railing.”

Liu Hai said, “Jinhai tried to save her, but it was too late. She shook his hand off and jumped off the balcony.”

The reporters didn’t know whether to pity her or not. She had turned completely crazy in love.

Xiang Wei clenched his hands in a fist.

“What is her condition now? Has she regained consciousness?”

“No. She has slipped into a partial vegetative state. We still don’t know when she will be conscious again. The doctors are doing their best.”

They were stunned.

Coma?

What a turn this story has taken!

One reporter smirked. “But somehow or the other, didn’t everything turn out to be perfect for Miss Nana? Even though her engagement broke with Chen Jianyu, she managed to enter the Liu family.”

The temperature suddenly dropped to below freezing point. The reporters sensed a chilling and menacing aura coming from Jinhai.

He said in a very low voice, which was still distinctly heard by everybody. “‘ Managed?'”

The reporter started sweating. She unconsciously moved back in her seat. His piercing stare was like thorns stabbing her skin deep till her bones.

The other reporters sneered at her.

What a fool she is!

It is an already well-known fact that both Liu and Chen family like Nana a lot. There have been even petty fights between Liu Hai and Chen Liling over whose daughter-in-law she will be. Both families favor her.

This woman must be having a death wish in insinuating Nana to be a gold digger.

“Did you say ‘managed’? Are you implying that Nana is behind everything?” He narrowed his eyes at her.

“N-no I mean-“

“Can you exactly pinpoint what her mistake was? Because I’m not able to see it. Maybe you can open my eyes.”

The others snickered.

Her face flushed red in embarrassment.

“Let me refresh your memory. Was it her fault that Tang Suyin drugged her?”

Silence.

“Was it her fault that Huian drugged me?”

Silence.

“Was it her fault that Tang Suyin mixed up the rooms, and she got trapped with me?”

Silence.

“Was it her fault that we slept together?”

Silence.

“Was it her fault that her engagement broke with Jianyu?”

Silence.

“Then why is it her fault if she is Mrs. Liu Nana now?”

No answer.

The reporter was cursing herself for spewing that stupid question. Now she has offended Liu Jinhai!

He was right. From the beginning to the end, Nana was only a victim who fell into traps, intentionally by Suyin and unintentionally by Huian. She never schemed anything.

Boss will be so furious at me. I will definitely lose my job!

This might be the first time that a man divorced his wife and married another woman on the same day, yet there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. The circumstances spiraled so much that nobody could challenge their decision.

“Any more questions?” Jinhai remarked with a sarcastic tone.

It was enough to signal that he won’t entertain any more questions.

The reporters got their cue and stopped, and with that, the press conference came to an end.

At the hospital, Zhou Bingwen came out after checking on Huian.

Xiang Qingge worriedly asked, “How is she? When will she wake up? You can treat her to recovery, right?”

Zhou Bingwen sighed. “I can improve her physical condition with my treatment. It will take some time for her external wounds to heal, but…”

Xiang Wei asked, “But?”

“Her mental condition is a different story. She is really traumatized. It will be difficult to make her come out of her vegetative state.”

Xiang Qingge broke down.

“No…my Huian…”

“Please, Zhou Bingwen…do something.” Xiang Wei had tears in his eyes. “You have handled so many critical and impossible cases. We can only rely on you.”

He nodded. “Yes, Xiang Wei. I will do my best. Along with her physical treatment, we have medicine to stimulate her brain activity. If she responds to it, then there good chances that she will regain her consciousness.”

They finally found hope. They only prayed that their daughter gets well as soon as possible.

In the evening, Nana and the twins were having their dinner. Liu Chunhua and Grandma Liu were tired, so they ate early and went to rest.

Yukira glanced at her and cleared his throat. “Nee-chan.”

“Hm?”

“I thought if brother-in-law may have many enemies, how do you think does he handle them? I mean he is so rich and runs a big empire, he must bound to have some enemies, right?”

Nana thought about it and nodded. “It is possible. The more power you have, the more people there are to get you down.”

He said, “I have also heard that almost every influential family has connections in the underworld. Do you think brother-in-law has them too? Isn’t that world dangerous? They do all sorts of crimes like money laundering, murder…if brother-in-law is involved in such things, then will you still want to stay with him?”

Nana looked at him, surprised. “What happened? Why are you asking these questions?”

He quickly said, “No, just asking.”

“Hmmm…that is a part of the world I don’t know much about. I also don’t know if Jinhai has any underworld connections, but I do know that I trust him. He is sharp and wise. That is why he is so successful as a CEO. I trust his decisions.”

He pursed his lips. “So, you won’t mind if he, at some point…would have k-killed someone?”
