Chi Yue received a call from Chi Jianshan just before she was about to get off work. “Have you gotten off work yet?” Chi Yue said, “Not yet, is there something you need?” Chi Jianshan said, “I’m downstairs of your studio. Come over after you get off work.” Chi Yue glanced at the time; there were five minutes left until the end of the workday. Chi Jianshan had timed his arrival precisely. Chi Yue knew that she had to meet him today, or else Chi Jianshan would find her at another time. Ten minutes later, in the restaurant across the street, it was rare for father and daughter to sit at the same table. Without even a greeting, Chi Jianshan got straight to the point, “Qingqing’s uncle visited your studio yesterday, didn’t he? He wants to do a paternity test with the child. Keep an eye on it. No matter what the result of the test is, you’re to report that they are not biologically related.” Chi Yue’s gaze was clear, “Are you teaching me to falsify records?” Ever since she left home, she was best at angering Chi Jianshan with just a few words. This time was no exception. Just as Chi Jianshan was about to lose his temper, he managed to suppress it forcefully. He softened his tone, “Chi Yue, strictly speaking, he is also your uncle. If you help him, it’s like helping a family. How can that be considered falsification?” Chi Yue’s tone was indifferent, “Have you done this with his consent? There are institutions like our studio everywhere; it’s not possible that he’ll check only in one studio.” Chi Jianshan’s anger was barely contained, “Are you saying that you can’t help?” “Yes, I can’t help.” Chi Yue stood up, “For matters like these, you don’t need to come to me anymore.” Seeing her about to leave, Chi Jianshan’s tone rose, “Chi Yue, do you not want the dowry your mother left behind at all?” Chi Yue paused in her steps. The voice behind her continued, “If I say I want it, will you give it to me without shortchanging me?” “As long as you handle this matter for me, I can give you the dowry.” “How much will you give?” “Chi Yue!” Chi Yue sneered, “Giving a little is giving, and giving everything is also giving. How much are you willing to part with?” Chi Jianshan’s expression darkened, “Do you have the ability to manage those properties now?” Chi Yue didn’t answer his question but instead said, “You didn’t even show up at my mother’s funeral, feeling it was an offense against Yang Shulan. Now, you come before me playing the good guy, concerned about my mother’s dowry—don’t you find yourself hypocritical?” “You…!” Chi Jianshan was so angry he raised his hand to hit her. “Chi Yue!” Nan Bingyu rushed to her side and protected her, “Are you alright?” Chi Yue glanced at her gratefully, “I’m fine.” Behind Chi Yue, Chu Shuo and Fu Rongyin approached together. Chi Jianshan’s expression grew even darker as he pointed at Chu Shuo, “He was the man your sister was interested in; did you really steal him from her?” Chu Shuo frowned, “Mr. Chi, that’s not right to say. If your daughter has her eyes on me, does it mean I belong to her? If she fancies the president one day, should she then claim to be the First Lady?” Chi Jianshan’s face was so gloomy it seemed as if water could drip from it, but he knew that offending Chu Shuo would do him no good. So, he turned his gaze back to Chi Yue, “Your mother’s dowry— even if I wanted to give it to you, I couldn’t. It is written in black and white, you can only handle her dowry after you get married. Do you think anyone would marry you now without family support?” Something was stirring in the depths of Chi Yue’s eyes, but her face remained eerily calm, “As long as you don’t touch my mother’s things, I will eventually take them back.” “I would like to see what capabilities you have!” After speaking, Chi Jianshan left without looking back. Chu Shuo asked, “Chi Yue, are you okay?” Chi Yue turned around and squeezed out a smile at him, “You arrived just in time, I’m fine.” Fu Rongyin was right by Chu Shuo’s side. As Chi Yue’s gaze lightly swept over his face, she noticed that he was looking at her with a profound gaze.
