When Xia Zhetao received the call, he was finishing the mess left behind by Mu Tingfeng. Although Mu Tingfeng was not a public figure like celebrities, he frequently appeared in financial magazines.
The sudden announcement about him being wounded by a gunshot may induce the idiotic reporters to make up the stories such as a fight for power in the great family, a fight among the brothers and uncles, and other disputes of the rich family.
Therefore, he made a public statement that Mu Tingfeng had met with an accident while he was on the way to work. He did not suffer any life-threatening injuries, was admitted to the hospital, and would recover soon.
Fortunately, the mass media had a good judgment. Even though the announcement made by Mu Tingfeng's company was not the truth, they did not simply make nonsensical reports.
