Chapter 2029: A Satisfactory Explanation

Nuannuan had responded to that by saying that it had only taken her 5 years to get to a place superior to the Shi family’s. That had been infuriating enough… before she praised herself as a genius in front of Shi Maowen.

The Wu family could sense Shi Maowen’s heart spewing blood right now.

“Officer Shi, I think highly of your Shi family because I think you’re all very courageous. If anyone provokes you, you guys gather up all your forces to go up against them. None of you are afraid of getting your hands dirty and going all out. Coincidentally, I’m also like that. If anyone dares to provoke me, I’ll use all my strength to retaliate. In any case, my business empire was built very easily. Even if it is destroyed, considering that I’m not even 18 years old yet, I have a dozen more five-year periods that I could use to build many new business empires.”

Shi Maowen, “…”

The Wu family, “…”

“So, Officer Shi, it’s not that I’m unjustly ruffling your feathers and damaging your reputation. It’s just that your actions are a little beyond your status and have started affecting me. But I really do want to maintain a good relationship with the Shi family, so I’m willing to be considerate. In fact, I still have some videos of those people from the Sea District Ministry of Justice which I didn’t show the president. I’ve already done my best to preserve the Shi family’s honor. And if you don’t appreciate that, I can just as easily show that video to everyone. If that happens, it’ll be clear that the Shi family did not only interfere with the executive hall, but the Ministry of Justice too. Once that news spreads, the consequences will be beyond both of us’ control. Officer Shi, would you like me to continue preserving your and the Shi family’s honor?”

Shi Maowen was furious. However, even as he fumed, he knew that the Shi family was powerless against someone like Nangong Nuannuan.

Lan Weisong’s capture had lost the Shi family a very important member. This was already very scary. Initially, he had wanted to personally call out some people from the Ministry of Justice to ensure the Shi family was portrayed positively in the news. At least then, the public would continue to support the Shi family. However, if Nangong Nuannuan’s videos we leaked, the Shi family would have no say in what might happen next. If their scandal was exposed, Shi Maowen could wave his ambition of presidency goodbye.

“Yes please,” Shi Maowen answered without hesitation. He was forced to accept Nangong Nuannuan’s ‘deal’.

“Okay. Since Officer Shi has asked, I will oblige. But I hope Officer Shi will remember my good faith and avoid getting too desperate. In this day and age, harsh words aren’t something people easily let go of. We’re in an era of peace—fighting and killing are outdated now. If there’s anything you want to say, let’s just talk it out, okay?”

Shi Maowen clenched his jaw so hard that it hurt.

He now knew that Nangong Nuannuan was not only formidable in terms of martial prowess, but also in influence and speech. She had a sharp tongue!

“In that case, thank you, Miss Nangong, for giving the Shi family this consideration. I will take over Lan Weisong’s case and provide you with a satisfactory explanation.”

“Hey, hey, hey! You can’t just say that! I’m being considerate of you and the Shi family, so I hope the Shi family can return this favor for me the next time I encounter a conflict. As for this case, I think the person you’ll want to speak to isn’t me, but the president. How could you take on such an important case solo? You must take this to the president, Governor Wu, the Wu family, and the thousands of people in Sea District who support Governor Wu. I won’t join in on the fun.”
