Chapter 2022: That Arrogant Woman

"So, I threatened her in return, telling her not to get the Nangong family involved in a war for the sake of the minor Wu family. I even tried to befriend her, telling her that if she let this go, not only would the Shi family forget about everything, but we would even take care of the Wu family in the future, allowing them to remain the wealthiest family in Sea District.

"But Nangong Nuannuan doesn't respect the Shi family name at all. I was extending an olive branch to her, and she didn't accept my goodwill. Even when I humbled the Shi family name, she still acted all high and mighty. Fourth Young Master, she doesn't respect you or the Shi family at all! Fourth Young Master, as the saying goes, blood is thicker than water. My brother-in-law is your cousin, so I'm a member of the Shi family, right? Please save me! Take care of that arrogant woman for me!"

"Shut up!" Shi Maowen's words were spat through gritted teeth.
