"Who could have known she has such a dirty personal life?"

"She never looked like that kind of person."

"You should never judge a book by its cover. The CEO of Rosette is such a frivolous woman."

"Look at how many men she is going out with. So slutty!

The corner of her lips twitched as she heard the gossips of the reporters behind her. She adjusted her mask slightly. She thought they have learned their lesson when she did not them hovering around while she out with Yu Jinhai. But these reporters are like a dog's tail. Even if you use a straightener, it will still be curvy.

As the slideshow ended, the lights in the hall turned on.

"See, I wasn't lying to you," Mother Yu sobbed softly, earning herself pity from the crowd, "I feel ashamed to say all this but I hope she finds this embarrassing and comes back to the right path. Since we have come this far, I won't hide the truth. She...has feelings for my son. her half brother, Daniel..."

Daniel's eyes widened. He never knew this was included in their plans too. Nobody informed him about this.

The reporters gasped, not expecting this sudden twist.

"Incest?"

''Just how disgusting can she be?"

"...Please don't judge my daughter. I just hope she realizes her mistake. That is why I am forced to do this. How can she have such thoughts about her brother? When I told her that, she slammed the plate of food on my face."

"Mei, what are you looking for?"

"Isn't there a buffet here?"

Shi Luo frowned, "What?"

"I want a plate of food to slam it on this old goat's face. What the heck is she talking about?"

This was a live press conference and if it went on like how it was going, Rosette's stocks will plummet once again as it has just been stabilized and the company was going through a delicate period. It won't do any good if the CEO's reputation has such a stain. And that bothered Shi Luo the most. But she remained quiet and did not remind Yu Mei about it.

Shi Luo held her hand and stroked her palm trying to calm the woman down. If she got angry, the hall will be on fire.

"...Even after she became someone's mistress, she is still trying to seduce my son one way or another. How can Daniel see his sister like that? To him, she is just his little sister. And that angered Mei'er, she bullied my younger daughter again and again and even called her employer and faked a story. Yan'er was suspended from the university a few weeks ago which had a bad effect on her final examinations. Now that this is a live press conference, I know Mei must be hiding at home in fear. She tends to not face her mistakes and run away from them. But do you think I am wrong? Seducing your brother isn't immoral?"

"It is...It is very immoral."

"You are so kind that you are trying to make her realize her mistakes. If it was my daughter, I would have broken her leg."

"Such women are a taint on the society."

"Frivolous women like this influence promiscuity."

"Mei, where are you going? Sit here. Don't be impulsive. There will be consequences..." Shi Luo tried her best to hold the woman back but her strength was no match for her friend.

"Who the hell is hiding in her home? I have never once been a coward," Yu Mei slammed her phone on the round table, "Fuck consequences. If I don't teach this old goat a lesson, then I am not Han Mei."

Shi Luo's eyes widened as she looked around in panic before letting out a sigh of relief as she noticed that nobody was nearby to hear them.

"Please don't talk about my daughter like that...I just want..."

"Stepmom, quit the drama, will you? That old face of yours looks downright disgusting when you put on this white lotus act. Did nobody teach you to not speak behind someone's back, yeah? How mannerless you are! Tsk!"

'Silence'

'Pindrop Silence'

That velvety clear voice was loud enough to make everyone pause. They turned around to look at the woman who was walking straight on the path towards the podium.

Dressed in a black suit, she had her hair tied in a high ponytail. Her V-neck blazer slim-fit blazer enhanced her hourglass figure. Her stilettos produced sounds like small crackers bursting every time she placed a step forth. Her black ankle-length pants revealed the diamond anklet sitting on her leg that shone under the light.

The crowd immediately parted from the middle, giving way to her.

Mother Yu panicked. How did she come inside when there were people arranged to stop her just in case she tried to barge. She calmed herself down and looked in a particular direction.

"You Bitch!! You are a shame on the society!!" A reporter dashed towards her with a knife pointed at her neck.

She grabbed the knife single-handedly. A few drops of blood dripped down the blade but her face remained nonchalant as she snatched it from the man's hand. Just as he tried to punch her, she grabbed his fist with her other hand.

'Crack'

The man wailed in pain as he felt his wrist being twisted ruthlessly.

Right at this moment, the bodyguard who was assigned by Jun Zixuan to protect her came to her side.

She passed him the knife before looking at him, "Take this man out and check his identity. Investigate the real cause behind his attack."

"But..." The bodyguard hesitated. Master had assigned him to protect her. How could he leave like that?

Yu Mei chuckled, "Do you think I need help?" She raised an eyebrow. Unlike the last time, she was neither drugged nor muddle-headed by sleep.

The man paused and eventually nodded. The woman's moves were even swifter than most of his team members. She was worthy enough to be their Young Mistress. With that thought in his mind, he grabbed the reporter by his collar and dragged him out.
