Chapter 533: Chapter 534: Revenge and Resentment

Ye Xinglan looked at her with complex gaze.

He couldn’t, in good conscience, say yes.

If he did, the Chi family would also hate the Ye family, thereby dragging the Ye family into this quagmire.

Chi Yu was the kind of ruthless madman who did things without considering the consequences. Having the Chi family as enemies would bring no advantage to the Ye family.

But seeing Shi Qianling’s pitiful face, he couldn’t help but soften his heart.

He held Shi Qianling’s hand, giving it a comforting squeeze, then looked at Chi Yu and spoke slowly, “A Yu, if we call the police, the matter will be blown out of proportion. When reporters swarm in and rumors start to fly, who knows what the story will evolve into. Whether it’s for Qingqing, for public reputation, or for the reputation of the Chi family, it will cause significant damage. In my opinion, since the truth is still unclear, why not investigate further before drawing conclusions?”

“It’s not us, the Chi family, who want to call the police,” Chi Yu glanced at him, then looked at Gu Junzhu. “It’s the Fifth Lord of Gu who wants to call the police.”

Chi family would also disagree with reporting to the police.

Because, apart from the physical abuse Chi Qing suffered, there was also…the incident with the spinning top.

The Chi family wouldn’t allow this matter to enter the public eye.

They would never let it be known that Chi Qing was once victim to a spinning top.

Even if the Shi family agreed to call the police, the Chi family wouldn’t.

But now, more anxious than them was the Shi family.

Because it was obvious that the one the Fifth Lord of Gu wanted to make things difficult for, was the Shi family.

Chi Yu threw the ball into Gu Junzhu’s court, leaving Ye Xinglan no choice but to negotiate with Gu Junzhu, “Fifth Brother, Beibei injured Xiao Ying. If we report this to the police, Beibei will definitely be taken away by them. Whatever happens, we cannot call the police.”

“Did I say that I was going to call the police?” Gu Junzhu shrugged, “The ones always clamoring about the police are the Shi family, aren’t they? If you want to dissuade anyone, it should be Shi Shijun! Have they gone crazy, carrying out such a despicable act and then trying to invite the police to witness it, I’m worried about their judgment.”

Ye Xinglan: “…!”

He took deep breaths several times to calm his enraged mind, then turned to Shi Shijun, “Shijun Brother, why not just leave today’s matter at that. The most important thing right now is to take Xiao Ying home for treatment.”

Shi Shijun had already wanted to leave. He accepted the way out offered by Ye Xinglan, “You’re right!”

He looked at Shi Qianling, “Qianqian, let’s go.”

Shi Qianling nodded, and went to the bodyguard holding Shi Qianying, helping to carry Shi Qianying and heading out.

Chi Yu stopped Chi Zhan who was about to explode in anger, shaking his head at him.

With unwilling tears welling in his eyes, Chi Zhan asked, “Big Brother, so we just let them leave like this?”

Chi Yu retorted, “What else?”

Chi Zhan gnashed his teeth, “At the very least, leave Shi Qianying behind to avenge our little sister!”

“Shi Shijun won’t leave Shi Qianying behind,” Chi Yu said nonchalantly, “Not only is Shi Qianying the secondyoung lady of the Shi family, but she is also the face of the Shi family. Shi Shijun would never leave the Shi family’s face behind.”

Chi Zhan was frustrated, “So we just let it be? We can’t call the police, we can’t demand Shi Shijun to hand over Shi Qianying, do we just let our little sister suffer for nothing?”

“For nothing? How can it be!” Chi Yu sneered, his eyes cold and fierce, “Unless the Shi family doesn’t let Shi Qianying step out ever again, we will pay back double to Shi Qianying what our little sister has suffered!”

Ye Xinglan didn’t leave with the Shi family.

The conversation between Chi Yu and Chi Zhan, the two brothers, didn’t intend to avoid others in the slightest.
