The Xu family is also a time-honored brand in China with a solid economic foundation, but it is not very innovative, so its development in recent years has been far less than before.

The Jiang family started out as a gangster, and they can do whatever they want out of sight.

The Jiang family and the Xu family have been related for generations, and their relationship is inseparable. The Xu family only listens to the orders of the Jiang family. In recent years, the development of the Xu family has been much worse than before. The Xu family relies entirely on the support of the Jiang family, so no one dares to take action against the Xu family.

The Xu family is willing to give up everything for the Jiang family, and the wealth accumulated by the Xu family over the years should not be underestimated.

The relationship between the two families is more like a banyan tree, intertwined and growing into a towering tree, and has become inseparable.

In the later period, the Shi family, the Jiang family, and the Xu family will inevitably face off against each other. The major families are like water and fire and it is impossible for them to coexist, but that is a matter for the future.

This high-end dress shop is owned by the Xu family, but this matter may be related to the Jiang family.

Shi Xiao is missing and the Shi family is in chaos. Now is not the best time to deal with the Jiang family.

But Yuan Shu is very caring towards the Shi family!

She absolutely could not tolerate outsiders attacking her family in public. If Yuan Shu remained indifferent, then her once frightening title of "Mrs. Iron Hand" would be wasted!

On the way home, Shi Yi hid in the back seat. Yuan Shu did not scold him as she had imagined, but remained silent, which made her even more uneasy, so she decided to speak first.

"Sister-in-law...I'm sorry...I've caused trouble for everyone."

Yuan Shu didn't care how Shi Yi called her. Her gaze slowly moved from the scenery outside the window to Shi Yi's pale face.

"You are not wrong. If you don't defend your rights today, you are wrong! You just need to protect your legal rights and leave the rest to me."

When Shi Yi heard this, she could no longer stop crying and couldn't utter a word.

She was so moved that she wanted to rush over and hug Yuan Shu, but she was afraid that Yuan Shu would push her away, so she could only cry.

She hasn't felt protected by her family for a long time. Her eldest brother Shi Xiao is a man, too serious and slow. Her only biological brother Shi Bin is a straight man with low emotional intelligence. How can she expect him to understand her?

The family's four half-siblings maintain this dysfunctional family.

When Shi Yi had almost finished crying, Yuan Shu spoke up, "Go back and prepare. I'll have my lawyer contact you and tell you what evidence you need to prepare. Three days later, I'll have the Xu family apologize to you in person!"

Before Shi Yi could be tempted, Yuan Shu spoke up, "You are a smart person. You need to know what kind of friends you can make and what kind of friends you should stay away from. Miss Chen abandoned you today, but she might betray you in the future. If you want to protect yourself, the first thing you should do is not betray others."

Shi Yi nodded obediently.

Yuan Shu turned to Zhou Yan who was driving and said, "We will live in the ancestral house for the next few days. Go to the villa to pack your clothes before going back. After you send us back, you can continue to follow Shi Lu to the set. I'm afraid there will be a lot of things to do on the set today."

Zhou Yan nodded, "Madam, do you need me to send someone to accompany you and the young lady?"

Now it is necessary to send more people to protect the Xu family. Yuan Shu thought about it and agreed.

Chu Mei sat in the dressing room, feeling a little restless.

The press conference was about to begin, which meant that her acting career only had a few hours left.

She thought Yuan Shu would let her stay for a while at least for Shi Lu's sake, but she didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so heartless.

She had no other options and even called Gao Shan in order to achieve the final victory.

But Gao Shan was even more cruel. He not only blocked her number, but also blocked his own relatives.

Haha, Chu Mei felt a little disdainful. Such a man always puts profit first. As long as it is not his own business, he will ignore it and even use a woman like her to shelter him from the wind and rain.

Now he can't even protect himself, let alone take care of other things. Gao Shan strangled her to death and threatened her not to touch the child. He was arrogant and domineering. Now he is just a lapdog with its tail between its legs!

The manager came over and said, "The press conference is about to begin. Are you ready?"

Chu Mei bit her lower lip and said to her agent indignantly, "Do I have to go? Once this press conference starts, I won't have a chance to stay in the entertainment industry."

The agent didn't care at all and just reminded her, "It's okay. As long as you tell the truth, Gao Shan will be kicked out of the Li family. Then he will have nothing but you and the child. Are you still afraid that he won't treat you and the child well?"

The more Chu Mei listened, the more she felt something was wrong. In the beginning, she just wanted to climb up and stay in the entertainment industry for the rest of her life. It was her agent who arranged this for her. Later, they had a child, and that's when so many things happened.

In fact, she no longer had any feelings for Gao Shan, but for the sake of the child in her belly, she still had to leave herself a way out.

Chu Mei's agent appears to be helping Chu Mei, but in fact, he wants Chu Mei to expose the scandal. She wants to implicate not only Gao Shan but also the Li family.

Chu Mei was not a fool. After thinking carefully about the whole story, she realized that her agent had played a role in fueling the situation.

Was she being taken advantage of by her agent?

When Chu Mei thought of this, she could no longer face her agent calmly.

She looked at her agent with a wary look, "What exactly do you want to use me for?"

The agent was stunned, and seemed to feel a little guilty for being suddenly exposed, but soon regained his composure, put his hands on Chu Mei's shoulders, bent down slightly and looked at Chu Mei: "Sister Chu, what are you talking about? How dare I use you? I just want to help you and the baby in your belly find a safety net."

The agent raised his hand to help Chu Mei tidy up her hair. "When you believed Gao Shan's words and provoked Shi Xiao, how could the Shi family let it go? You must hold this press conference. How will you pay the liquidated damages to the company? You can only rely on Gao Shan. If you let him go at this press conference, he will definitely not acknowledge the baby in your belly, and no one will help you pay the liquidated damages."

This agent has been with Chu Mei for two years, so he naturally knows Chu Mei's temper and what Chu Mei is worried about.

After saying that, Chu Mei no longer hesitated, but focused on how to make Gao Shan pay the price.

Just as the press conference was about to begin, Chu Mei suddenly received a call.

It turned out to be sent by Shi Lu.

Chu Mei was impatient, but she didn't dare to blame him, "Shen... Shi Lu, what else do you want? I promised to hold a press conference, don't go too far."

Shi Lu didn't have time to argue with her. "If you don't want to be used as a tool, don't speak at the press conference. Hurry up and promote the new movie "Gunshot" and then hurry back to the set."

"What do you mean?" Before Shi Lu could understand, the call had already ended.

Chu Mei was speechless. The Shi family was really difficult to deal with. Yuan Shu threatened Chu Mei to hold a press conference to clarify, but the second young master of the Shi family asked Chu Mei to shut up. Did they treat her like a monkey?
