Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 558 - 561: Die Together
Chapter 558: Chapter 561: Die Together
“I…I…” Wu Qizhen was full of shame, stammered, unable to speak.
“What are you hiding from me? Speak up right now!” Shi Maotong roared, “This kind of scandal will plummet the stock price of Shi Group. If not managed correctly, bankruptcy is a real possibility! Do you want to see our family ruined, leaving your son and daughter begging in the streets?”
“Dad, it wouldn’t be that serious, would it?” Shi Qianling asked apprehensively. “It’s just a video. We can hold a press conference and clarify that the video is fake and the woman in it only resembles mom, it’s not her.”
“You think people would believe you just because you said so? Do you think everyone else is a fool?” Shi Maotong yelled furiously. “Speak up now, who did you anger! Only if I know our enemy, can I react properly. Their first move was this harsh, do you think they will let it go just like that? No! You must have hugely offended them for them to retaliate like this. They will not stop here, more is to come. If you don’t tell me the truth, I won’t even know who our enemy is and we can only take the hits. When the time comes, our whole family can go to hell together!”
“Dad!” Shi Qianling panicked, glanced at Wu Qizhen, and bit her lip: “A couple of days ago, Brother Lan came to me saying that Ye Xingbei disappeared…”
“Yes, it’s her! It must be her!” Wu Qizhen cried out, “Two days ago, I sent Ye Xingbei to the underground brothel, and now I was caught in the act at the same brothel. It must be that bitch Ye Xingbei setting me up, it has to be!”
“You dimwit!” Shi Maotong violently slapped Wu Qizhen, roaring, “Didn’t I tell you already? Let it go about that little beast! Look what she did! She almost killed Chi Qing! The Chi family is hounding us like mad dogs and you went and provoked Ye Xingbei again, do you have a death wish?”
“I didn’t go looking for her,” Wu Qizhen shook her head, covering her face, “Ye Zhitong sent her to me. I didn’t expect it to be like this… I didn’t…”
She regretted it so much her intestines were twisting.
She was convinced that if she sent Ye Xingbei to the underground brothel, she would disappear from this world and no one could trace back to her. That’s why she did it.
If she had known Ye Xingbei would escape and take such a ruthless revenge on her, she never would have done so.
“You idiot!” Shi Maotong slapped her hard again, “When Ye Zhitong sent her to you, you just had to take it, couldn’t you have asked Ye Zhitong to deal with her instead? Ye Zhitong was the one who raised her. Even if Ye Zhitong got her killed, it wouldn’t have been on your hands. You just had to stick your head out, dragging the entire family down with you! How did my son end up with a mother like you? Other people rack their brains to clear the way for their children. You, on the other hand, are deliberately sabotaging your son’s future. Do you have a grudge against my son, can’t bear to see him do well?”
“No… that’s not it…” Wu Qizhen shook her head in terror, “I didn’t expect it to be like this. Is it really that serious? Will it affect our company? Brother Tong, think of something, please, think of a solution!”
“Yes, dad, now is not the time to blame mom. The most important thing is to figure out how to minimize the company’s loss.” Shi Qianling was also more flustered than she had ever been.
