Chapter 531

Chi Qing bit the bullet, she fell in love with that man.

Chi Qing was still young, her family didn’t allow her to date, so her affair with the man was likely unknown to the Chi family.

During her interaction with him, she found out that he was from the Shi family.

The relationship between the Chi family and the Shi family was strained, hence Chi Qing dating someone from the Shi family would definitely be kept hidden from her family.

Her visit to the villa in the video was probably for a date with the man in the video.

Having a date with a man from the Shi family naturally meant keeping it a secret from her family.

She managed to give her protectors the slip, deliberately concealing her tracks, just to rendezvous with the man secretly.

When she finally got into trouble, due to her deliberate evasion, the Chi family couldn’t find any leads.

In the end, it was a mountain exploration team that found her barely clinging to life.

It was unclear what had happened in that villa, but after waking up from her coma, Chi Qing had turned into a lunatic.

But all these didn’t really matter to the Chi family.

To the Chi family, what mattered was that they found the culprit who had left Chi Qing half dead.

Now, an irreconcilable feud had formed between the Shi and Chi families.

As Chi Yu had just mentioned, there would be no peace between the Shi and Chi families until one was destroyed!

He then glanced at Shi Shijun and Chi Zhan.

Both of them had been pulled away by their bodyguards, both bruised and battered, a pitiful sight.

Gu Junzhu looked at Shi Shijun and chuckled lightly, “Young Master Shi, what do you say, do you still want to call the police? If you need help, I can assist in calling them over. I heard that the police here in your country Y are quite fair, trustworthy, they can definitely redeem your sister’s innocence!”

Shi Shijun was so furious his face turned purple, his body trembling, he couldn’t utter a word.

Call the police?

How could he dare to call the police now!

If the outside world knew that Chi Qing was framed by Shi Qianying, the Shi family’s reputation would be ruined!

Even if it was Shi Qianying who did it by herself, and it had nothing to do with the other members of the Shi family, so what?

Shi Qianying bears the Shi family name!

Whatever Shi Qianying did would be associated with the Shi family.

Upon knowing the sinister deeds done by Shi Qianying, other powerful families would despise and even ostracize the Shi family.

At that time, not only would the Shi family’s century-long reputation be destroyed, but more seriously, the Shi family might become a common enemy, boycotted by numerous noble families.

By then, if all these affluent families simply stopped dealing with them, the Shi family would fall into decline!

His face turned ashen in rage, his body trembling, but he had to consider the bigger picture.

He managed to squeeze a smile at Gu Junzhu, “Fifth Lord of Gu jests, we had just come to an agreement moments ago. Given the sake of Ah Lan, we won’t report to the police, and we would let Ye Xingbei off this time. Since my sister pleaded for mercy on behalf of Ye Xingbei, we won’t whip him fifty times either. I believe Ah Lan will discipline Ye Xingbei well in the future so he won’t do anything wrong again.”

Gu Junzhu chuckled and elbowed Ye Xingbei, “Hey, Ye Xiaobei, you always said that I’m thick-skinned, have you ever met someone truly thick-skinned?”

Ye Xingbei sneered, curling the corners of his lips: “I hadn’t before, but after meeting the young master of the Shi family today, I realized I’d wronged you in the past. Your skin isn’t thick, you’re just straightforward. The young master of the Shi family, he’s the one with the thick skin. He’s not just thick-skinned, he’s also stubborn. He insists on presenting black as white, trying to trick people, unaware that in other people’s eyes, he’s the biggest and most ridiculous fool!”
