Chen Yao calmly said to Gu Fei, “Why don’t you go find the girl that you got pregnant instead of clinging onto Shi Xiu? Shi Xiu is impetuous and hot-tempered; aren’t you afraid she’ll make the Gu family suffer in a fit of anger if you keep harassing her like this?”

She went on to say, ‘You’re to bla if the Gu family’s reputation is tarnished or their interests get affected. This whole ss started because of you. You’re the future head of the Gu family, and this is how you act?! You’re a disappointnt; there’s no hope for the Gu family with you at its helm.”

Gu Fei sweated profusely. Gu Wan hurriedly stated, “Great Aunt Chen Yao, our Gu Fei and Shi Xiu have been betrothed to each other since they were young—”

“Let the matter of their betrothal go,” Chen Yao detachedly interrupted her. “That was just a joke made by the elders. Shi Xiu isn’t suitable for Gu Fei. I’ve decided to annul the betrothal right here and now; this issue is over and done with.’

Shi Xiu burst into relieved tears and threw herself into Chen Yao’s arms, feeling extrely aggrieved. Chen Yao gently consoled her while Yun Nan glowered darkly at Gu Fei and his sisters.

Shi Nian rushed over and saw that Yun Nan was upset. Thinking Yun Nan had been bullied, he imdiately put his arm around her shoulders and worriedly asked, “What happened? Who bullied you?”

Yun Nan briefly told him what had happened just now, and Shi Nian heaved a sigh of relief. Gu Rou and Gu Wan secretly felt anxious when they saw that things had gotten out of hand, and seeing their current situation, Gu Fei wanted to beat a hasty retreat.

However, Shi Nian called out to him before he could slip away and looked around at the dia reporters present. A few of them shrank back under Shi Nian’s gaze, and Shi Nian Iw what was going on.

Shi Yun, Gu Bei, and Gu An also rushed over. Shi Nian impassively remarked, “This is the first ti the Gu family has co to visit Rong City. They’re here to discuss investnt and developnt opportunities in our city. Please be nice and don’t make malicious comnts about their private lives. You wouldn’t want to offend our city’s future investors, would you?”

His lukewarm words made the reporters’ hearts skip a beat. A reporter familiar with Shi Nian quickly assured him, “Don’t worry, Chairman Shi. We definitely won’t write nonsense. We definitely won’t.” The more timid reporters were already chiming in their agreent.

The jibe in Shi Nian’s words was unmistakable, and Gu An looked toward Gu Bei and Shi Yun. Although he was considered Shi Nian’s elder, it really wasn’t his place to lecture Shi Nian.

Shi Nian seed satisfied with the dia reporters’ attitude and went on to say, “As for my sister’s betrothal to Mr. Gu Fei… That’s just a rumor. There’s no such thing! My sister is still young and hasn’t finished her studies; it’s too early for her to fall in love and marry.”

“You all can criticize her acting skills but don’t make an issue of her love life and marriage. I don’t want to read or hear of any groundless rumors and scandals. I have an army of legal consultants who can put down their business at any ti to help my little sister fight a lawsuit. I’ll sue whoever dares to spread rumors and cause trouble into bankruptcy!”

Shi Nian reached out and patted Shi Xiu’s shoulder, and his tone softened as he consoled her, “Alright, stop crying. It’s only a small matter; what’s there to cry about? If soone bullies you, just beat them up. There’s no need to cry.”

Shi Xiu sobbed, straightened up, and stood properly. Yun Nan helped her tidy her hair. Shi Nian then told Gu Bei and Chen Yao, “Grandpa, Grandma, we still have things to do, so we’ll be taking our leave.”

Gu Bei nodded. “Alright. Go ho and calm your little sister down. Don’t scold her! Shi Xiu, co find your grandma and if your brother bullies you!”

Shi Yun and Xu Yun politely bid farewell to everyone and left the banquet early with their daughter, son, and daughter-in-law. For a mont, the entire place was silent after they departed.

Gu Bei cleared his throat and said to Gu An, “Your elder brothers, Gu Ping and Gu Su, aren’t here. As their younger brother, you should stay in the city and preside over things here. Don’t leave a group of won here to cause trouble. Look what a ss they made of this celebration! I’ll help you diate with the

Shi family, but don’t get any more ideas about their daughter!”

If you can’t even do that, what will beco of the Gu family business when it ends up in your hands? I’ll leave the scolding to your father. You better shape up, boy.”

Chen Yao saw that Gu Bei was truly angry and quickly went forward to hold his arm and support him, chiding, “Okay, that’s enough. If you have sothing to say, you can say it in private. This isn’t the place to scold the youngsters. Are you tired? Why don’t we also go ho?”

It wasn’t until the two had left that the Gu family’s wonfolk sighed in relief. Chang Hui complained, “If it wasn’t for Aunt Chen Yao exposing Gu Fei in front of everyone, things wouldn’t have turned out this way! They ssed up everything and just left, leaving us to clean up after them! And they bla us for it!”

Gu An frustratedly comnted, “That’s enough, Chang Hui! You should worry about how to explain this to my big brother when he gets back!”

Chang Hui shut her mouth, and even Bai Jie looked worried. “The most important thing right now is shutting those reporters up,” Zheng Xiu said softly.

“Yun Liu hired most of those dia reporters, so she should be responsible for this!” Chang Hui stated irritably. “Let her deal with them!”

Zheng Xiu stared at Chang Hui in shock. She didn’t expect her sister-in -law to be so shaless as to push this onto her daughter..
