Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was difficult for Shi Maowen to say anything—especially since he had just spotted Chi Yang in the video behind Nangong Nuannuan. Shi Maowen felt as if he had a knife to his neck. This was simply too much!

“I would never dare to. I’m just expressing my thoughts. My Shi family sincerely wants to be on good terms with Miss Nangong, but you keep throwing our goodwill back in our faces time and time again. Isn’t that a little unfair? Even if you’re friends with the Wu family and you want Wu Jingzhong released, you know how to contact the Shi family. If Lan Weisong refuses to listen to you, you could always call our family directly and ask us to release him—we can easily handle him. As the saying goes, if you have a problem with a dog, talk to its owner. Shouldn’t Miss Nangong have approached me as Lan Weisong’s superior as basic courtesy if she had a problem with him?

Nangong Nuannuan was still beaming. She had no intention of letting the Shi family down easy. She asked, “I gave Lan Weisong two chances to contact the Shi family. Did he not call you guys himself?”

Shi Maowen, “…”

Lan Weisong was an idiot for not mentioning such an important point when he was on the phone with Shi Maowen just now!

“Officer Shi, this is me trying to preserve the Shi family’s honor. Yesterday, when I exposed Lan Weisong as the mastermind of this case, I told him to release Wu Jingzhong today. An hour ago, when he was holding a meeting to criticize Wu Jingzhong and Xu Binren, I called him again and told him that he still had an hour left. I told him to release Wu Jingzhong immediately and to call you if he could not make up his mind. He even tried to warn me against allowing the Nangong family to go up against the Shi family for the Wu family’s sake. I figured that he would call you to inform you of the situation. But even after all this has happened, he still didn’t bring it up with you?”

Shi Maowen, “…”

He was so angry at Nangong Nuannuan and Lan Weisong that he was speechless.

“Since he didn’t report back to you, this has nothing to do with me, right? After all, he was the one to underestimate me. He didn’t even give you a basic report of the situation. You can’t ask me to report everything about your family back to you, right?”

Shi Maowen, “…”

“Officer Shi, just now you said that the Shi family’s reputation, power, and wealth were earned through the hard work of many generations for over a hundred years, so you cherished all your feathers greatly. If so, you should have better management over your feathers. Don’t let them get in the way of others.

“I’m not like you. Both Tianheng Holdings and the Imperial Phoenix Group only required five years to be developed to their current scale. Compared to how fast the Shi family developed themselves, I could be considered a genius. Therefore, I’m not at all afraid of your Shi family, and I won’t let myself be wronged by them. I must protect my friends. Your Shi family has no right to come over and disrespect me, yet you still did, so you can’t possibly blame me for ruffling a few feathers, right?”

The Wu family could not imagine the psychological state of Shi Maowen at the moment. All they could do themselves was listen speechlessly.

The Shi family knew of Nangong Nuannuan’s capabilities. However, they were after all still a first-class noble family in Emperor District. They had spoken about how the efforts of several generations over a hundred years had led them to their current status.
