Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shen Yuan’s eyes flickered for a moment before she lowered her head in resignation. “Mei Shu, you gave me two choices at the hospital that day. So are you now going to systematically swallow up the entire Shen family?”

“Not interested,” Mei Shu replied. “What do you think is left of your Shen family?”

Indeed, Mei Shu had once considered swallowing up the entire Shen family. However, after taking over the business, she realized it wasn’t necessary at all.

All she needed to do was to turn all of Shen Yuan’s capital and connections, essential for her survival, into her own. Then, the Shen family would be nothing but a useless shell.

Why waste the effort swallowing an empty shell?

Shen Yuan forced a bitter smile and shook her head. “In the end, 1 miscalculated. 1 lost. But you haven’t won completely either. At least, the orders from the Yu family are still in my hands. We signed a five-year contract.” But now, it seemed that business was going to fall into the hands of that shameless mother and son duo!

Mei Shu raised an eyebrow, smiling as she took a step back, making the way to the door for Shen Yuan. “1 forgot to tell you, the contract was actually signed in my name. Didn’t you pay attention? It’s actually a cooperation agreement between me and the Shen family. The Shen family will have to give up seventy percent of its profits to serve our Mei family. You can leave now.”

In that instant, Shen Yuan understood everything.

Lu Si’s unusual defense of her earlier was actually a tacit agreement between him and Mei Shu.

He never gave up Mei Shu because of Lu Ting’s threats. Instead, the two of them staged a play together, aiming to lead the Shen family to its demise step by step.

Mei Shu bringing Shen Hai personally was also meant to snuff out Lu Ting’s last bit of pity for her. Now that Shen Yuan had nothing and lost Lu Ting’s protection, what awaited her would be fair legal consequences.

Zhou Guo glanced deeply at Mei Shu before leaving with Shen Yuan and her secretary.

Once they left, the atmosphere at the venue became even more silent. No one dared to speak first.

The suffocating atmosphere spread from Lu Ting and Mei Shu to the surrounding area. The others were too scared to move, let alone try to slip away unnoticed.

“Mei Shu, you’re very clever,” Lu Ting sincerely praised, but there was no hint of appreciation in his eyes. “But our Lu family has never liked women who are too scheming. I won’t approve of you being with Lu Si.”

“Whatever. Your approval means nothing to me,” Mei Shu retorted without hesitation. “Do you think I’m the kind of person who would try to please the in-laws for the sake of my husband?”

“So don’t daydream. Whether Lu Si and 1 are together is our business. Speaking of which, if it weren’t for your meddling and aiding the wicked, two innocent girls from our school wouldn’t have been involved.”

Although Lu Ting wasn’t directly involved in the matter, without his interference, Shen Yuan wouldn’t have dared to act so recklessly.

No matter how you looked at it, Lu Ting played a significant role in the background.

“What do you want to say next? Are you resentful toward me? 1 am Lu Si’s biological grandfather!” Lu Ting angrily pointed at Mei Shu. “Even if Shen Yuan isn’t a good girl, can you guarantee that you’re clean? Mei Shu, don’t let me catch you doing something wrong in the future!”

With that said, Lu Ting snorted coldly and left.

Lu Li brought his wife over, looking at the two with concern. “Why don’t you come back to the Lu family with me? Grandpa is just angry, he’ll come around if we talk to him nicely.”

Lu Si didn’t move, his gentle eyes fixed on Mei Shu. “You call the shots; I’ll listen to you.”

Mei Shu almost drowned in his gentle gaze. She quickly raised her hand to block his intense stare and said helplessly, “1 don’t have time to go with you. There’s still a lot of work to be done at the company, and there are loose ends to tie up in this matter.”

Lu Si held onto her hand tightly, looking spoiled. “Then I’ll go with you.”

Mei Shu couldn’t argue with him and compromised, “Fine, you can come with me, but we’re going somewhere first.”

Lu Si had no intention of asking where they were going. He let Mei Shu lead him out of the hotel. Even when they got into the car, he stuck to Mei Shu and refused to let go.

Mei Shu, annoyed, pushed him away. “Can’t you sit on the other side by yourself?”

“Mei Shu,” Lu Si complained with a hint of grievance, “we haven’t seen each other for almost half a month, and you haven’t sent me a single text message.”

Mei Shu raised her hand to stop his complaint. “Let me correct you. It’s not that I didn’t text you; it’s that your phone wasn’t even in your hands.”

Lu Si seemed about to make trouble unreasonably.

Mei Shu quickly changed the subject. “Do you really not want to go back and see your grandfather? His complexion wasn’t good just now.”

“No need,” Lu Si answered decisively. “Things have come to this point, and it’s time for me to make a stand. I can compromise on other things, but giving up on you is out of the question..”
