That evening, both Wen Nian and Shen Jun received apology messages from Jiang Chun. The content was the same—apologizing for not promptly discovering Wei Lai and Jiang Ning’s plans and feeling ashamed for failing to prevent them.

Wen Nian looked at Jiang Chun’s performance and couldn’t quite understand what this seemingly innocent and pure-hearted hypocrite was up to. She glanced at the message but didn’t bother replying, tossing her phone aside.

Shen Jun’s initial reaction upon seeing the message was that Jiang Chun had once again taken it upon herself to shoulder the responsibility.

Shen Jun: One should only step forward when there’s something good to be achieved. Why do you always go looking for trouble? This matter has nothing to do with you, so there’s no need for you to apologize. Besides, it’s Wen Nian who has been hurt, so you don’t need to apologize to me either.

Jiang Chun: You two are a couple, so of course, it’s necessary. Sigh, as an older sister, 1 didn’t guide my younger sister properly, so I bear some responsibility. I’ve also apologized to Wen Nian via WeChat, but she hasn’t responded. 1 guess she’s angry with me because of this incident.

Jiang Chun’s tone wasn’t accusatory, but it implied to Shen Jun that Wen Nian’s different reaction indicated she was redirecting her anger and hoping to guide Shen Jun into supporting her side of the argument.

Of course, Jiang Chun’s intention was not to seek forgiveness from Wen Nian. She merely hinted at the situation, emphasizing that it didn’t directly involve her. She was using this opportunity to try and get Shen Jun to speak on her behalf, further provoking Wen Nian, who already felt wronged.

Although Shen Jun wasn’t aware of Jiang Chun’s ulterior motives, he instinctively felt that he should decline.

Shen Jun: Wen Nian is an independent individual with her own thoughts. I shouldn’t interfere too much.

Jiang Chun didn’t push further, but in the end, she managed to persuade Shen Jun to agree to take Wen Nian to a nearby ancient town around the weekend without letting Wen Nian know about the plan.

There was a resort project owned by the Jiang family in that area, creating an opportunity for them to have a face-to-face conversation.

Shen Jun: Alright, but you can’t let her know that 1 intentionally brought her there, and 1 won’t interfere with her decisions. Don’t expect me to be your advocate.

Jiang Chun: Don’t worry.

After the online apology video was released, along with the reports of Wei Lai being tied up and taken to the Wei Corporation, the negative reputation of the Wei family did suffer a significant blow. However, they hired many people to leave comments that deliberately tried to separate Wei Lai’s actions from the company and emphasized their youthful ignorance.

News kept coming every day, although the incident quickly turned into old news. However, these things will stay online forever, so Wen Nian wasn’t in a hurry. When the time came, these things would play their rightful role to demolish a building.

Three days later, Shen Jun finally began dealing with the five men.

Upon hearing Shen Jun’s phone call, Wen Nian curiously asked, “Are you sending them to Southeast Asia?”

Shen Jun’s expression turned serious as he gently held Wen Nian’s cheeks and spoke, “Indeed, I have discovered their dark history of heinous crimes, including gang-raping women and subjecting them to forced prostitution. Merely sending them to prison would be too lenient. They have shown a disturbing inclination towards inflicting harm on women, so perhaps it’s time they experience the same fate in reverse.”

The so-called reverse experience meant that they would be forced by women. To put it bluntly, they would become male prostitutes, but they wouldn’t earn any money like professionals. Instead, they would cover their own living expenses without actually earning an income.

However, Shen Jun’s “kindness” didn’t stop there. He specifically instructed the management staff below to ensure that each person had to meet the quota of serving five clients per day. Only when the tools of their misconduct were completely worn out and unusable would they be transferred to the front desk to handle regular business.

Wen Nian couldn’t help but burst into laughter and praised, “That’s a great idea!”

Seeing Wen Nian in a good mood, Shen Jun seized the opportunity and said, “I heard there’s an ancient town in the Hai City that we haven’t explored yet. How about we go there for a weekend getaway?”

Wen Nian realized that she had been treating Shen Jun like a laborer, constantly giving him tasks without any plans for leisure or fun. She agreed to his suggestion.

Before Jiang Ning left the country, she arranged to go shopping with Wei Lai.

Wei Lai curiously asked about the reasons behind the final compromise of the Jiang family.

Jiang Ning hesitated for a moment, then lowered her gaze and said, “My parents were worried that if Wen Nian had evidence and reported the incident to the police, they might arrest me.”

Wei Lai angrily retorted, “Do you really think I believe that? We’ve been through thick and thin together, and you still keep this from me. I even called my brother yesterday and asked him to take good care of you in the United States, but now you’re lying to me!”

Upon hearing Wei Lai’s words, Jiang Ning felt a mix of surprise and shame. She hurriedly tried to appease Wei Lai, saying, “Wei Lai, please don’t be angry. It’s just that I can’t tell you. I promised Jiang Chun..”
