Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The living room fell into a dead silence. Neither side was willing to give in.

Chu Yue couldnt wait for her teacher to be so angry at s.h.i.+ Man and be completely disappointed in her. She deliberately broke the silence and provoked, s.h.i.+ Man, with my teachers current status, he can have any student he wants. Who do you think you are? My teacher helped you so much today. If you still dont know better, 111 let you go to prison for a few years!

s.h.i.+ Man frowned. The anger of being threatened lingered in her heart again. She looked up at Chu Yue and said, This is between me and your teacher. How can you interrupt?

You! Chu Yues eyes turned red from embarra.s.sment. Her voice instantly became sharp and ear-piercing. s.h.i.+ Man! You dont know whats good for you! To think that my teacher valued you so much. In the end, youre a heartless wolf who doesnt know how to repay him!

She was slapping everyone in the s.h.i.+ family in the face by scolding s.h.i.+ Man in public.

s.h.i.+ Zhong stood up with an ugly expression and stood in front of s.h.i.+ Man and Shen Xian. Instructor Chu, please watch your words. Im s.h.i.+ Mans father. 1 know her best. If you dont take back what you just said, theres no need for us to continue talking!

If you dont want to talk about it, then so be it. If you have the ability, then you can give up the business! Chu Yue sized s.h.i.+ Zhong up disdainfully. From the beginning to the end, she had never looked him in the eye. It was obvious that she looked down on him as a businessman who was good at scheming.

Shang did not become enemies with the officials, but if the officials went overboard, Shang did not have to tolerate it anymore.

The men from the s.h.i.+ family were provoked to stand up. s.h.i.+ Kes cold eyes landed on Chu Yue, enough to make her s.h.i.+ver for no reason. Instructor Chu, since youve already said that, our cooperation will end here. However, I hope you can understand that the s.h.i.+ family has the ability to force you to do business with us. Naturally, we have the ability to make you feel uncomfortable after you go back.

s.h.i.+ Kes words were full of threat.

Only then did Chu Yue remember that before she came with her teacher, her teachers expression was dark and ugly.

Wasnt it because the higher-ups changed their minds at the last minute that her teacher had no choice but to give up on his nieces family and change his path to the s.h.i.+ family?

If she really a.n.a.lyzed the situation, the person behind the s.h.i.+ family was far stronger than her teacher!

When she understood this, Chu Yue was so shocked that her pupils shrank. But since things had come to this, wouldnt it destroy her momentum if she retreated at the last minute? Would it be a slap to her face?

Chu Yue made up her mind and confronted him coldly and fearlessly. Young Master s.h.i.+, you have to understand that my teacher is the chief. If you offend him, do you think that even if you have someone behind you, you can protect your family?

The two sides faced each other in the living room. The thick smell of gunpowder only needed a spark to ignite.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jun was the first to break the silence.

He leaned on his walking stick. Although he was talking to Chu Yue, his sharp hawk-like eyes were fixed on s.h.i.+ Man. Apologize to Miss s.h.i.+!

Chu Yues mouth fell open in shock. This was the first time her teacher had spoken to her sternly!

In the past, even if she messed up a mission, he had never reprimanded her like this!

Chu Yue immediately felt aggrieved. She bit her lower lip and refused to let go. Her eyes were red with humiliation as she glared at s.h.i.+ Man. If looks could kill, s.h.i.+ Man would have been cut into pieces by her gaze.

Apologize! Lu Jun tapped his walking stick again, his voice even more dignified and loud than before.

Chu Yues heart ached as she let go of her lower lip that had been bitten until it bled. She frowned and endured the sourness in her nose. Im sorry.

Louder! Lu Jun was staring at s.h.i.+ Man from the beginning to the end. An invisible pressure enveloped her, trying to force her to compromise.

s.h.i.+ Man understood that on the surface, the army was deterring Chu Yue, but in fact, the person he wanted to intimidate was her.

Chu Yue almost cried from his roar. She hurriedly forced back her tears and lowered her eyes. She made up her mind and clenched her fists as she shouted, Miss s.h.i.+, Im sorry!

Only then did Lu Juns expression ease up in satisfaction. He looked at s.h.i.+ Man with a smile. Miss s.h.i.+, its your turn.

s.h.i.+ Man frowned tightly.

Lu Jun was setting her up so that she and Chu Yue were completely on opposite sides.

He wanted to tell her that what Chu Yue said just now had nothing to do with him, but if she still refused to return to the capital with him, then with this humiliation, Chu Yue would definitely not let her off in the future.

He wanted s.h.i.+ Man to understand that only he could protect her!

s.h.i.+ Man closed her eyes and suddenly relaxed her clenched fists. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, Chief Lu, Ill tell you the truth. The main reason I cant agree to go to the capital to join the army with you now is that 1 cant leave my mother in G City. I have to be by her side at all times to protect her.

Lu Jun frowned deeply and looked at Shen Xian.

s.h.i.+ Zhong calmly took a step to the side and s.h.i.+elded Shen Xian behind him. He said with a solemn expression, This matter is not trivial. We need time to discuss it..
