Chapter 1278: Chapter 1277: Replace the Spokesperson Chapter 1278: Chapter 1277: Replace the Spokesperson Zhou Shengting raised his hand and waved, and Xiao Yang immediately felt relieved, just as he was opening the door to leave.

Zhou Shengting stopped him, “Find another spokesperson and terminate the contract with Su Qian.”

His words were crisp and resolute, ringing with authority.

“CEO Zhou, but we have already invested so much manpower and financial resources. Now, terminating the contract, could it be…” Xiao Yang even thought he had heard wrong. Wouldn’t it be such a waste?

It was just a scandal, what was the big deal? Wasn’t CEO Zhou making a mountain out of a molehill?

Xiao Yang mumbled to himself, not knowing what Zhou Shengting really had in mind.

No one knew the fear in Zhou Shengting’s heart. Now that Bai Lan was pregnant and resting at home, if she saw such news, the consequences would indeed be unimaginable.

Which woman could tolerate her hubby having such a scandal?

More importantly, the scandal was baseless, not real.

But as it passed from person to person, the story would quickly take on a different flavor.

Zhou Shengting also quickly realized that he was being used, since everyone who entered the banquet knew better than to take photos casually and upload them online.

Especially him.

Clearly, Su Qian was using him to climb the ranks.

If he were unmarried, without Bai Lan, he might just let it slide with a laugh, letting the public relations department handle it. But now it was different; he did not want Bai Lan to have even the slightest misunderstanding, even though he knew Bai Lan would still accept his explanation.

But there might be a seed of doubt already planted in her heart.

This was something he absolutely would not allow to happen.

Thus, the best solution was to cut through the chaos quickly and replacing the spokesperson was the best way.

Besides, if Sheng Ting Corporation was destabilized by a single spokesperson, then Zhou Shengting felt he should really reflect on himself.

“Replace her,” Zhou Shengting’s tone left no room for doubt. He looked up at Xiao Yang, “Get this done immediately.”

Xiao Yang, seeing his serious expression, realized the gravity of the situation and nodded, immediately setting out to handle it.

Zhou Shengting took out his phone, hesitated for a moment, but still dialed Bai Lan’s number. Deep down, he was very uneasy.

He was not sure whether Bai Lan had already seen it or not.

Soon, Bai Lan’s lazy, tender voice came through the phone, sounding coquettish, “Sheng Ting, is there something you need?”

“Nothing much, just missing you. What have you been up to today?” Zhou Shengting asked.

“What else could I be doing? Just eat until I’m full and sleep, and eat again once I wake up. I’m living a life like a pig,” Bai Lan complained, but a careful listener could detect an undertone of happiness.

“Even if you are a pig, you are the cutest little pig.” Zhou Shengting laughed upon hearing this.

“You are the pig,” Bai Lan retorted indignantly.

“Alright, alright, I am the boar, and you are the sow.” It was unexpected for the esteemed CEO of Sheng Ting to say such a thing, truly surprising.

Bai Lan laughed over the phone, and her mood, depressed for the whole morning, finally eased a little.

Zhou Shengting, hearing her laughter, finally felt a weight lift off his chest.

Fortunately, Bai Lan hadn’t seen it. It was truly a relief.

The two of them chatted a bit more before they hung up the phone.

Zhou Shengting, still not at ease, made another call to the manager of the public relations department, insisting she handle this matter as quickly as possible.

The manager was startled by the call, hesitating for only a moment before nodding vigorously, already handling it.
