Chapter 40 - CHAPTER 40: FEILAN FASHION'S EXPLANATION

Feilan smiled mysteriously cause Lushan had told her earlier that he'd send a certain someone to clear her name at the press.

But Lushan hadn't exactly told her what they would do so she was clueless but had to trust that Lushan and Yukitsa would come through in this.

So Feilan just smiled lightly and said "Don't worry about that....am sure everyone will get an answer concerning that during the press conference"

Dai Jiro just nodded and asked "Will you be joining us for the conference"

Feilan nodded and said "But I'll watch discreetly at the sides and I probably won't step on stage unless truly necessary"

Dai nodded and bowed lightly and said "Well..I guess I'll get going before I'm late for the show"

Feilan nodded and Dai left.

Feilan sat in her office for a while and just as she stood up to leave and join the conference....there was a light knock on her office door.

"Come in" Feilan answered distractedly but as she watched two figures walk into her office....she stared in disbelief as her eyes widened in shock.

Feilan looked at her best friend in complete surprise not expecting to see her here today..right now.

Wei Lin looked at Feilan and walked towards her and gave her a big hug....Wei Lin's eyes were wet "Feilan....do you know you're so mean"

Wei Lin said with a sad but disappointed expression. Feilan was caught off guard but We Lin's next statement made Feilan feel a tingle of guilt.

"We're bestfriends Feilan...how can you not share with me what you're going through....how can you leave me in the dark Fei Fei

"Do you know it hurts me that you're not even willing to tell me your troubles Fei Fei....I may not be able to do much but atleast I can be there for you"

Feilan bit her lip and hugged Wei Lin back and she did her best not to breakdown. Firstly because of the toil that the recent series of events had left her in and secondly because she had indeed hurt Wei Lin by not telling her what was going on.

They were bestfriends but she had kept Lin Lin in the dark but it was simply because Feilan was afraid to get those close to her in a mess.

"I'm sorry" Feilan said sincerely.

Wei Lin broke off from their embrace and said "Do you know I planned on giving you the cold shoulder for a while just to teach you a lesson about ignoring your bestfriend but when I knew that you may be facing more schemes....I just had to show up" Wei Lin said with a sad laugh.

Feilan felt her heart ache. The few people she had close to her faced it tough because of her...take her step brother Seisan and even Wei Lin.

For Wei Lin's case...she came from a prominent family from China who had big seats and connections in the Chinese government.

Actually....Feilan had plenty of backing but as fate would have it....Wei Lin's family did not approve of Wei Lin socialising with a child whose background was that of a street orphan.

They didn't even care that she was practically a billionaire to some understanding or that she was a successful CEO.

Anyway they had more wealth and power than Feilan Fashion by a whole four times.

So Wei Lin's family strictly monitored her and she couldn't use the family power to help her but she could do anything else.

Wei Lin looked at Feilan and asked "What's going on Fei Fei"

Feilan sighed softly and said "Let's first head down for the press conference....I'll explain everything else to you afterwards"

Wei Lin nodded but asked "Does your current situation have to do with the Shaos"

Feilan smiled 'Wei Lin had been with her long enough to understand the schemes of the Shao family against her'

Wei Lin got her answer from that sharp and cold gaze in Feilan's eyes and Wei Lin felt her own anger burn inside her.

'She had never met a family as detestable as the Shaos.....so what if they had adopted Feilan.....did that mean that they had a right to mistreat her and not consider the fact that she was a human with life and emotions'

Wei Lin stood in the elevator with Feilan and Hana "I'm really looking forward to the day you completely destroy those heartless scum....atleast your holding your ground and fighting now

"Tell me...is that fiancee of yours gonna help...he better or I'll teach that Suzen Shei a hard lesson about not taking care of you"

Wei Lin had never had a good impression of Suzen but she didn't know that he had already cheated on Feilan and they had already broken up.

Feilan's eyes dimmed and turned icer at the mention of Suzen but she regained her composure and changed the topic "Let's go teach the Shaos a much needed lesson....am done taking their provocations silently"

'I'll inform Lin Lin of everything later' Feilan thought to herself.

"Yeah...you go Fei Fei.....I can't wait to see what you have planned" a very excited Wei Lin said with curled fists as she ensured her disguise was on well.

Feilan laughed at the funny sight.

"Are you sure it's a good idea to come along...people might recognise you"

Wei Lin shook her head as they stepped out of the elevator into the packed conference room.

The place was bustling with news reporters who were too distracted to notice three female figures make their way to a back inconspicuous corner.

And then finally the time everyone had been waiting for arrived and the room fell silent as only the sound of cameras snapping filled the room.

Everyone's attention was on the professional looking man in a suit.

He was none other than Feilan Fashion's PR director Dai Jiro.

Dai Jiro walked towards the stage confidently under the furious snapping of cameras.

He stepped on stage and stood before the microphone. He didn't immediately speak and first let his sharp eyes scan the crowd leaving them in total suspense.

And finally he spoke while looking into the cameras calmly "Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen from the press and all dear viewers"

Cameras flashed everywhere 'Everyone had been anticipating Feilan Fashion's explanation and now they were gonna receive it'

"As you must all know me...I am Feilan Fashion's PR director and today I'll be speaking on behalf of the company to clear up its name"

"The topic to be cleared concerns the recent situation that involved alot of customers being sold knockoffs at our distribution branches"

Dai had just finished saying that when the reporters started bombarding him with questions.

"Mr Dai....what can Feilan Fashion say about being caught scamming customers.....how do you explain this"

"Mr Dai...is this the first time Feilan Fashion has done this"

"Mr Dai what is the explanation for recent events.....doesn't Feilan Fashion care for its image"

Under the constant bombarding of questions....Dai Jiro remained absolutely calm and even smirked a little.
