Love You Till the End

Chapter 1204 - 1202: Shi Mei vs. Shi Keke (49)

"Why..."

Qian Hao’s voice trembled violently, due to fear, and also due to terror. Having maneuvered in the business world for so many years, many people wanted to harm him, but no one had ever truly gotten close to him. He never expected to fall at the hands of someone he had no dealings with, someone he had no entanglements with at all.

The people he sought out ended up hurt or killed, and he himself was now also in peril. Whether he lived or died was no longer within his control.

Shi Mei finally withdrew his gaze, casually glancing at Qian Hao.

"Because you offended my woman."

He raised his thin lips, a mocking smile playing on them. Each word he spoke was filled with force, bloodthirsty and cruel.

"Who is your woman, when did I ever offend your woman..."

Qian Hao couldn’t believe that the woman he publicly humiliated outside the courthouse was the catalyst for his downfall.

If it weren’t for what he said to Shi Keke, "You still look a little pretty. If you went out to sell, you’d definitely make a fortune. How about this, don’t bother being a lawyer. I’ll introduce you to a job on the platform. Earning three or five thousand a night shouldn’t be a problem," he might not have ended up in such a miserable situation.

"Who my woman is, is none of your concern, and you have no right to know." Shi Mei’s gaze suddenly turned cold, emitting a chilling glare. "Just remember one thing: anyone with the surname Shi, whether male or female, young or old, is not someone you can afford to offend."

"The Shi surname..." Qian Hao finally realized something. He raised his hand to point towards a certain direction outside the courthouse, speaking in a panic: "She... that lawyer, is your woman?"

He didn’t know much else, but he remembered clearly what her surname was. She... was a Shi!

"What, do you have a problem with that?" Shi Mei lazily played with the ring on his finger, his movements seemingly unintentional, yet elegant like a noble prince, exuding a regal aura with every gesture, as if wrapped in a luminous glow.

"No, no..." Even if he had a problem, Qian Hao wouldn’t dare to voice it because nothing was more important than saving his own life.

"Were you the one who said my woman doesn’t look like a wealthy person?" Shi Mei squinted slightly, his tone neither warm nor cold.

"I... actually, that’s not what I meant, I just..." Qian Hao stammered, unsure of how to explain, because he had indeed said something like that earlier.

Only now did he understand why, when he was questioning her about having millions, she calmly replied that she indeed didn’t have millions, but she had billions.

Back then, he thought she was just bluffing. He never expected she was telling the truth.

"Were you the one who suggested my woman work on the platform?" Shi Mei’s eyes narrowed further as he smiled with his lips, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes. Compared to when he fired the gun earlier, in this moment, he seemed even more bloodthirsty and ruthless.

Qian Hao shook his head vigorously, shaking it desperately. He neither dared to admit it nor deny it because he knew all too well what the outcome of doing either would be.

Shi Mei glanced at him indifferently, his smile fading, becoming cold and cruel: "Choose between a ruined family and lost fortune. You decide. Whether your wife or daughter is more suitable to work on the platform is also up to you. A word of advice, if you can’t make a choice, you’ll lose both."
