The scene was in chaos. Reporters rushed to the front, eager for close interviews. Even when blocked by the bodyguards below the stage, they shouted loudly, “Miss Yan Xi, did you really harm your grandfather to gain control of the Shen family fortune?”
“So you were in such a hurry to become the president of Shen Corporation because you were afraid that Mr. Shen would regain consciousness, and you would lose your chance?”
“Miss Yan Xi…”
Yan Xi’s mind was a mess. Cold sweat poured down her face, her fingers clenched, completely unsure of what to do.
Xu Fengzhi quickly stepped forward and took the microphone from Yan Xi’s hands. “Quiet, everyone!”
Her voice was sharp, instantly spreading to every corner of the venue. The people below the stage also quieted down a bit, waiting silently for what would
come next.
Xu Fengzhi looked at Shen Qingyue. “Shen Qingyue, you say Yan Xi harmed Uncle. Do you have any evidence? Yan Xi is Uncle’s granddaughter. Even if she does nothing, Shen Corporation will eventually be hers! But you, an illegitimate child from who knows where, hurting Uncle for the family property and then shifting the blame, that’s more convincing, isn’t it? Yan Xi has no reason to do this… Are you just taking advantage of Uncle’s absence to bully Yan Xi?”
At her words, the atmosphere in the room shifted. Suspicious glances were directed at Shen Qingyue.
Shen Qingyue’s face remained expressionless. “If I didn’t have evidence, I wouldn’t be standing here.”
Yan Xi became even more flustered. She knew Shen Qingyue must have some trick up her sleeve! Xu Fengzhi was also a bit panicked, but compared to Yan Xi, she remained much calmer. After all, she had a few more years of experience. “Where is this evidence? Don’t think we’re afraid of you.”
Shen Qingyue didn’t argue. She tapped her phone and sent a message. In less than three seconds, the doors of the banquet hall were pushed open, and Shi Xiang’er walked in.
Seeing Shi Xiang’er, Xu Fengzhi and Yan Xi stared wide-eyed, completely dumbfounded.
Shen Qingyue remained composed. “Xu Fengzhi, Yan Xi, I’m sure you’re not strangers to this person. She’s our grandfather’s caregiver, Shi Xiang’er!”
Yan Xi’s face turned pale, her voice trembling as she spoke. “I don’t know her! I don’t know what you’re talking about! How could we possibly know such a lowly person?! Just a caregiver, what right does she have to know me!”
Shen Qingyue’s tone turned sarcastic. “Well then, Miss Shi Xiang’er, do you recognize them?”
Shi Xiang’er nodded directly. “Of course, I do! She helped my husband find a job, and even gave me some money to poison Mr. Shen, inducing a heart attack. She said, ‘Do it cleanly, we can’t let Mr. Shen have any chance of waking up!”‘
Yan Xi, infuriated, pointed sharply at Shi Xiang’er and cursed loudly, “You’re spouting nonsense! Watch me rip your mouth apart—”
Xu Fengzhi was just as furious. “Miss Shi Xiang’er, I know you. You’re my uncle’s caregiver. But I heard your husband just got out of prison. You’re helping Shen Qingyue slander us. Be careful, or you and your husband will end up in jail together!”
Shi Xiang’er showed no fear. “Even going to jail is better than being killed by you! I just want to live a peaceful life. It’s you who won’t let me be!” She turned to the reporters below, “Every word I said is true, and there are transaction records. If you don’t believe me, feel free to check! Yan Xi is extremely vicious. Not only did she make me poison Mr. Shen, but she also wanted to kill me to silence me! I hope the reporters report the truth and bring Yan Xi to justice! How can someone like her live under the sun? She deserves to be in jail!”
The venue descended into chaos once again; this revelation was more explosive than the last. The bodyguards below the stage could no longer contain the rioting crowd. Several reporters had already rushed onto the stage, bombarding Yan Xi and Xu Fengzhi with questions.
Meanwhile, Shen Qingyue, without any fanfare, turned and left. After all, her job was done. It was time for her to exit.
Yan Xi found herself surrounded by several reporters. Seeing Shen Qingyue leave, she shouted at her bodyguards, “Stop Shen Qingyue! This woman is slandering me. Whoever catches her will be rewarded ten million!”
Yan Xi was on the brink of madness. She didn’t dare to think about what would happen next after today. But Shen Qingyue shouldn’t think she could escape unscathed.
The people around her went mad upon hearing her words. Catching Shen Qingyue meant getting ten million! They did not care about the ethics; they just wanted the money first.
Seeing that some people intended harm towards Shen Qingyue, Qin Zhen stood up, ready to go help.
Wei Jiu’er immediately said, “Zhen, those people seem to want to harm Qingyue. She’s in danger alone. Go help her quickly.”
Upon hearing her words, Qin Zhen hesitated. He had long decided not to
involve himself in Shen Qingyue’s affairs, and she did not want his help either.
Besides, Shen Qingyue was risking her own life, endangering herself for the family’s property. What could he do? Wei Jiuer was still by his side.. How could he leave her and go to Shen Qingyue’s aid?
