Kapitel 21: Coping Method

Redakteur: Henyee Translations

Gao Shan wandered around the room for a long time and thought of a way.

"I can't resolve this matter. The Li family is too powerful. If they want to investigate me, it will be easy. The only advantage we have is this child… How about this? Get your manager to contact the media people that he's usually on good terms with and spend some money to buy fake reviewers. Get them to send the message that there's shocking news about you and hype it up."

"Hold a press conference tomorrow and say that you're pregnant with Shi Xiao's child. Get your assistant to organize the timeline later and let all the attention focus on you. As for Yuan Shu, so what if she doesn't want to admit it? She won't be able to cause much trouble. Besides, Shi Xiao is no longer around. Even if the child is born, they can't do a paternity test. This way, you might have a chance."

"I already told you that Yuan Shu is a crazy woman now! What if she doesn't care about her reputation and goes all out? How can I win against her?!" When Chu Mei heard Gao Shan's suggestion, she couldn't help but feel resentment.

The child she was pregnant with was his, but if something happened, not only would she have to face it alone, but she would also have to go into hiding to survive. She even had to say that the child was a dead person's!

It would be fine if Shi Xiao was really dead, but what if he returned alive one day? If the Shi Clan and the Li Clan joined forces to deal with her, would she still be able to survive?

Moreover, this method was a risky move. If the media spoke up and held a press conference, she had no way out at all. She could only insist that Shi Xiao had abandoned her. But if even one part of the lie didn't match up, then all her years of hard work would be ruined.

"Why don't we forget about it…" Chu Mei wanted to give up. "I'll go to the hospital tomorrow. I don't want this child anymore. We can have another one in the future. Didn't you say that Li Ran isn't in good health now? When she dies…"

Before Chu Mei could finish speaking, she was frightened by the enraged Gao Shan. He pounced on her like a wild beast and grabbed her neck as he said fiercely, "Chu Mei, don't you dare abort this child. What right do you think you have to follow me for so long? Do you think you can rely on your looks to stay with me? I can find a dozen women like you! If it wasn't for Li Ran being infertile, I would have had a child long ago. I might even have multiple children already! Your child is more valuable than you now, so you better be sensible. Otherwise…"

Gao Shan was about to say something when his phone rang. He glared at Chu Mei with a dark expression and picked up the phone.

"Hello!"

"Mr. Gao, long time no see. Looks like you're in good health."

Gao Shan was shocked. This was clearly Li Ci's voice.

Chu Mei watched as the originally aggressive Gao Shan suddenly put on a fawning expression. He knew that the other party couldn't see him, but he still acted humble.

"Uncle, I was just talking to my men at work and didn't look at the caller ID. I didn't expect it to be you."

"I'm not busy. If there's anything, feel free to ask."

"The flight arrives tomorrow evening, right? I'll remember it."

"I'll definitely pick you up personally. Don't worry."

As Chu Mei watched Gao Shan's humble demeanor, she smiled silently.

He pretended to be rich in front of her, but acted like a lap dog in front of others?

Gao Shan only exhaled after Li Ci hung up, then he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

"Chu Mei, go and settle the matter. Arrange your schedule for tomorrow and think about what to say."

Chu Mei responded and stood up to leave, but was stopped again.

"How long has it been since you went to the set?" Gao Shan lit another cigarette and said, "Do you know that you've signed a betting agreement for this movie? Yesterday, Director Chen called and asked me if you're done with your work. If you don't start filming, we'll change actresses. Do you know how much effort I spent to assure the director?"

Chu Mei suppressed her resentment and said softly, "Isn't it because of the child's matter these two days? I'll definitely go to the set the day after tomorrow."

"You're a smart person. Don't ruin your future in a fit of pique." Gao Shan narrowed his eyes and calmed down under the influence of nicotine.

"Go deal with it. Don't disappoint me."
