Gu Family did have a branch office and people in country Y, but a local serpent was no match against a reigning dragon. It was wishful thinking to secretly hide the dignified second young lady of the Shi family without leaving a trace.
He simply couldn’t figure out why the astute and capable Fifth Lord of Gu, known for his meticulous planning, would make such a rookie mistake.
Was it because he had never tasted failure and became arrogant, leading to his foolish behavior?
“Why can’t I call the police?” Shi Shijun angrily questioned Ye Xinglan. “My sister was beaten up by Ye Xingbei like this. Ye Xingbei must give us the Shi family an explanation. If you disagree to settle privately, we must call the police. We can’t let my sister suffer such a brutal treatment for nothing!”
Ye Xinglan opened his mouth but was unable to speak.
He was in a dead end.

He didn’t want Ye Xingbei to get hurt.
Yet with Shi Qianying being in this condition, no matter what he said, the Shi family wouldn’t let Ye Xingbei go.
What on earth should he do?
He ruminated for a while, then suggested to Shi Shijun in a negotiating tone, “Brother Jun, if you agree to forgive Beibei this time, I’m willing to give you five more percentage points of our cooperation between the Ye and Shi families this time.”
“What do you mean?” Shi Shijun exclaimed in fury. “Ye Xinglan, do you think I’m the type of person who would betray my sister for profits? Listen, you only have two choices now. Let us take Ye Xingbei away, or let us call the police. Everything else is open to discussion!”
Ye Xinglan looked at Shi Shijun, hesitated for a while, then sincerely said, “Brother Jun, Beibei is my sister. I admit that she went too far this time. But, in consideration of the longstanding friendship between our two families, please forgive Beibei this time. I will personally discipline Beibei with fifty lashes. Brother Jun, what do you think?”
“I don’t think so!” Shi Shijun stared at Ye Xingbei. “Whatever she did to my sister, I want it returned in kind. Not a thing less!”
“Brother!” Shi Qianling looked at Shi Shijun, tears welling in her eyes as she pleaded, “For Brother Lan’s sake, please agree to Brother Lan’s proposal! After all, Brother Lan is Beibei’s brother. Don’t put Brother Lan in the middle between us and Beibei.”
“Even at this point, you’re still speaking up for him?” Shi Shijun glared at Shi Qianling, disappointedly saying, “Ye Xingbei did such a cruel thing to your sister. He’s still defending Ye Xingbei. It shows that he has no regard for you, and yet, you’re still begging mercy for him?”
“Brother,” Shi Qianling continued to plead, “Beibei is weak, fifty lashes are already too much for her to bear. I believe Brother Lan is fair, he won’t let her off lightly. After all, Xiao Ying kidnapped Yu Nuo first; there was a reason for this incident. Now that Xiao Ying is in this condition, even if Beibei is treated the same way, Xiao Ying could not be restored as before. Fifty lashes can serve as a lesson for Beibei and accountability for Xiao Ying. After all, we and the Ye family have a longstanding relationship, do we really have to break it off because of Beibei and Xiao Ying? Brother, there is vastness in stepping back. Brother Lan understands our difficulty. In the future, he will surely discipline Beibei!”
Facing Shi Qianling’s pleading gaze, a helpless look appeared on Shi Shijun’s face. He waved his hand, “Alright, alright, all for your sake. Fifty lashes then. But these fifty lashes, I will personally deliver! I will avenge Xiao Ying myself!”
