Yang Po lowered his head and listened to the Old Master chiding him.

In such a family like theirs, the elders’ opinion mattered most.

The Old Master scolded him for a while before Yang Lang said, “Pa, if you want to salvage the situation, there are only two ways. One, sue her for slander. Two, kill her.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The Old Master was in deep thought.

Yang Po said, “If we kill her, the agenda would be too obvious. If she got into an accident, everyone would know we were the ones who caused it. If we sue her, my future will be ruined if the evidence is leaked. Now, Shen Qianshu hasn’t taken out any evidence yet. I can still keep myself clean. What am I to do if she brings out the evidence?”

Their family would never give up on him.

He was sure of this.

“What should we do then?” Yang Lang said. “We’re clearing up the mess for the trouble you have caused. Do you know what nasty things the Mu Family speaks of us? You are the black sheep amongst us. Because of you, we have lost ‘face’.”

Yang Po lowered his head.

The Old Master said, “Are you sure she left some evidence?”

“Yes.”

The Old Master glared at him angrily. “Can you get the evidence back?”

“Shen Qianshu is very smart. I sent someone to steal it, but they couldn’t find where she hid them. I heard they were mailed abroad,” Yang Po said. “Pa, what should I do about this situation right now? Will someone from up there send people out to investigate this matter? If you send someone to speak to Shen Qianshu and ask for the evidence, I’ll be ruined.”

“You only know to fear now. What were you doing earlier?”

Yang Po felt really tense and insecure.

Yang Lang said, “I will stop the authorities above. Now, I can only negotiate with Shen Qianshu.”

“She wouldn’t agree with you.”

Yang Po knew Shen Qianshu and Lin Xiaojuan very well. They could not be so easily persuaded.

“That’s because you don’t give them conditions that are tempting enough,” the Old Master said. “Divorce with Jing Yun right away. Stop giving in to her needs. Resign and take on a more relaxed position. Get through the next few years, then speak again.”

“Pa!” Yang Po was anxious now. “I’m not young anymore. A few more years? Will I still stand any chance?”

“Are you intending to only regret when the authorities investigate and make you lose ‘face’?” The Old Master was furious. “Resign now. A few years later, you can get back on your feet. If the real evidence comes out, you won’t even stand a chance to turn around! Don’t you get it?!”

Yang Lang said, “Listen to Pa. As for the investigation, we will facilitate it. No one will look for Shen Qianshu to investigate. I watched the live-stream. She isn’t mainly trying to mess with you. Jing Yun is the main problem she is going after. If you deal with this well, nothing will go wrong.”

“Will it?”

“Whether it works or not, this is the only option. What else do you want?”

Yang Po clenched his teeth. He was really unhappy about it. The Old Master said, “This is it then. Find someone and contact Shen Qianshu. Negotiate the terms and conditions with her. If she doesn’t give in, we will think again.”

“Yes!”

Yang Po was very unwilling, but he did not dare to rebel. He had to obey all the commands given at home.

Rose Castle.

Shen Qianshu received a call from Mu Yuan as well.

“The Yang Family might sacrifice Yang Po. Take note, they have two options. One, let Yang Po move somewhere else for a few years. Two, kill you. If I were from the Yang Family, I wouldn’t mess with you. We would give up on Yang Po, but you still have to be wary of them. They might resort to desperate measures at desperate times.”

Shen Qianshu said, “Sure, I got it.”

This was her goal. As long as Yang Po lost his position as the mayor, what can Jing Yun use to fight with her?

There was the sound of quick footsteps coming from upstairs. The medical team rushed up to the master bedroom quickly. Shen Qianshu looked up and hurriedly hung up the phone. “Mu Yuan, I have something on. Got to go.”
