“Lu Si, you actually recorded it?” Shen Yuan opened her mouth, finally regaining her voice. “You’ve been on guard against me from the beginning. So, you’ve just been watching me do all this! Are you playing me for a fool?”
As she spoke, her state of mind was nearing madness, tears flowing incessantly down her cheeks. If it weren’t for the bodyguards holding her down, she might have already scratched Lu Si’s face.
“Yes,” Lu Si said calmly. “You’ve always been greedy, cunning, and fond of playing tricks. In the matter of Mei Shu, I had to be cautious, but you are wrong about one thing—I have no interest in playing tricks on you.”
Shen Yuan stared at him blankly, waiting for his words to push her further into the darkness.
“It was Mei Shu who asked me not to act rashly. Otherwise, I would not have spared you long ago,” Lu Si handed the recording pen to Jiang He. “Release this recording. I don’t want to hear from anyone that Mei Shu is a mistress again.” “Yes!” Jiang He eagerly accepted the recording pen, feeling both admiration for Si Ye and a hint of regret.
If Miss Mei saw Si Ye defending her like this, maybe she would agree to marry him right away!
After Lu Si finished speaking for a long time, no one present dared to make a sound.
Now that they thought about how they had mocked Mei Shu just now, they felt that they were doomed.
In this atmosphere of panic, everyone wished the police would take Shen Yuan away quickly.
If she hadn’t orchestrated this drama herself, they wouldn’t have offended both Lu Si and Mei Shu.
The quiet atmosphere made it difficult to breathe. Lu Ting, tired, finally broke the silence. “Zhou Guo, take her away. 1 don’t want to see her right now.” “Okay.” Zhou Guo waved his hand, and two police officers immediately approached, lifting Shen Yuan from the chair.
Shen Yuan didn’t care about her dignity anymore. Her previously exquisite makeup was ruined by tears.
She struggled desperately, resembling a prisoner being taken to the gallows. “No! I’m not leaving! Grandfather, I’m your recognized granddaughter-in-law. You can’t abandon me! Please save me. My father is lying in bed waiting for someone to take care of him, and my grandmother is still in the hospital, needing urgent surgery for her heart disease.”
“Believe me, even if I did something wrong, it was to raise more money to treat them both! I didn’t mean for that girl from No.i High School to be harmed!” At these words, Lu Ting couldn’t bear it anymore. He opened his exhausted eyes and looked at Zhou Guo, wanting to say something but hesitated.
Zhou Guo promptly interrupted him, “Uncle Lu, Shen Yuan has violated the law. Anything can be forgiven, but once she breaks the law, she must face legal judgment. I’m sorry, 1 cannot bend the law for personal reasons.”
Lu Ting closed his eyes again, nodded silently, and waved his hand towards Zhou Guo.
In front of so many people, he couldn’t say much to Zhou Guo. But he would try to find ways to mitigate Shen Yuan’s punishment secretly, for the sake of her grandfather’s past favors.
Zhou Guo respectfully bowed to him, “Thank you for your understanding. Let’s take her away.”
“Wait a minute!”
At this moment, a clear voice suddenly rang out at the main entrance of the banquet hall.
Almost as soon as Lu Si heard the voice, he strode toward the door.
The gaze of everyone followed Lu Si’s movement, gradually focusing on the young woman.
Mei Shu pushed a wheelchair-bound man into the hall with a smile.
As soon as Shen Yuan saw the man’s face, her pupils contracted instantly.
She knew she was truly finished this time!
“Auntie! 1 failed to stop her. She said the person in the wheelchair is…” Rushing in from outside, Zhou Li hadn’t grasped the situation inside and was fiercely stared at by Zhou Liang, forgetting what she was about to say.
“The person in the wheelchair is Shen Hai? Is he here to attend his daughter’s engagement party? My God, how did he become like this?” Many people in the crowd immediately recognized Shen Hai.
Shen Hai used to be a prominent figure in the business world. Even though the Shen family had fallen, people still remembered him.
Although Shen Hai had done many absurd things, he hadn’t truly offended anyone.

But now, the reason people hesitated to recognize him was because Shen Hal’s appearance was vastly different from before.
He wore shabby home clothes stained with various unidentifiable substances. His once thick hair was now sparse, his complexion pallid, his eyes devoid of any light, and foam continuously bubbled from the corners of his mouth.
He was only fifty years old, but he looked older than seventy or eighty.
Lu Ting was also somewhat incredulous when he saw Shen Hai, but after his initial shock, he quickly concealed his emotions. His sharp eyes fixed firmly on the young woman pushing the wheelchair.
“Are you Mei Shu? Why are you with Shen Hai?”
