Chapter 8: Back Her Up
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Hah, I didn’t hold it properly. I’m sorry.”
Although she said she was sorry, there was no trace of apology in her tone.
Wu Yi’s face was covered in tea and she couldn’t quite open her eyes. She could only use her hands to wipe her eyes as she shrieked, “B*tch! You did it on purpose! You…”
1
Her decibel was so high that it hurt Wu Mei’s ears and she frowned.
“I did it on purpose. What can you do about that?”
“You’re dressed like a prostitute on the street in the red-light district. Why don’t you just strip naked to seduce your brother-in-law?”
“You don’t have any shame at all. This tea bath is to help you wash your brain. You should be thanking me.”
Wu Mei did not give her any face. Every sentence was berating her and she couldn’t refute any of it. Wu Yi’s face turned red from embarrassment.
“Brother-in-law, Big Sister must have misunderstood me. I didn’t…”
At that moment, Wu Yi still did not forget to behave coquettishly in front of Li Nanchen. She deliberately pretended to speak in a soft and delicate voice, causing Wu Mei to feel uncomfortable and slightly nauseous.
Li Nanchen acted like he did not hear her. He picked up the two pieces of tea leaves from Wu Mei’s body and threw them away.
“President Li, don’t misunderstand. Yiyi is still young, she definitely doesn’t have the intention to seduce you like Wu Mei said…”
Wu Pang wanted to rip Wu Mei’s mouth apart.
Wu Pang could tell what Yang Shan and Wu Yi were thinking, but he did not stop them.
After all, if they could succeed, it would be a good thing for the Wu family. However, it was obvious that Li Nanchen had no interest in Wu Yi. This wasn’t going to work out…
“Young?”
When Wu Mei heard his words, she could not help but sit up straight. “If my memory serves me right, Yang Shan had already gotten together with you at that age and became your mistress, isn’t that right?”
“She was born less than two years after that. How is she considered young? It’s truly prenatal education that she already had by the time she was born. Amazing!”

Wu Mei raised her thumb and grumbled, ripping apart the cover that concealed their shame.
“Besides, even if she didn’t mean to seduce him, what’s the purpose of having the tea so hot? Does she intend to scald her brother-in-law to death?”
After she was done with the scolding, Wu Mei changed the topic and tossed the ball in Li Nanchen’s court.
Fortunately, Li Nanchen understood her intentions. He gently buttoned up the cufflinks of his suit and frowned as he said coldly, “Looks like you guys are dissatisfied because I didn’t invest in the Wu Corporation, so you’re trying to harm me?”
“Since that’s the case, why don’t I fulfill your wish?”
Li Nanchen looked up and saw the anticipation in Wu Pang’s eyes. As if he was a god, he spoke nonchalantly, “How about making the Wu Corporation bankrupt?”
2
His tone was extremely icy.
Wu Mei was stunned. She did not expect him to do this for her.
Is Li Nanchen giving her face or is he simply not fond of Wu Pang?
“President Li, don’t… Yiyi made a mistake. Don’t be angry!”
Wu Pang was so scared that his legs turned to jelly. Looking at Wu Yi, he became infuriated. She only knows how to ruin things!
Slap!
He raised his hand and slapped Wu Yi’s right cheek.
1
Well, now both sides of Wu Yi’s face were swollen and quite evened out.
1
Wu Pang pointed at Yang Shan and berated her, “How did you teach your daughter! Is President Li someone you can lust after and be worthy of? Get on your knees and beg for forgiveness!”
3
“Hubby!” Yang Shan had never suffered this kind of grievance before.
She hugged Wu Yi and ignored the look Wu Pang gave her.
Wu Pang was so anxious that he slapped Yang Shan as well. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and apologize!”
Yang Shan covered her face and yelled, “You dare to hit me?!”
“So what if I hit you?!”
1
When Wu Pang raised his hand again, Yang Shan was finally afraid. She made up her mind and knelt on the ground, no longer caring about her dignity or face as she begged for mercy, “I’m sorry, President Li. It’s all our fault. We won’t do it again…”
Li Nanchen looked down at her and said calmly, “The person you should apologize to is not me, but Wu Mei.”
1
He actually wanted Yang Shan to kneel before Wu Mei.
Wu Mei was watching the show with interest. She didn’t expect everyone to look at her.
Li Nanchen’s gaze was calm while the Wu family’s eyes were filled with hatred.
Wu Pang hesitated for a moment before saying, “President Li, I don’t think that’s a good idea. Shanshan is Wu Mei’s mother after all. If she kneels to Wu Mei, Wu Mei’s life will be shortened. She can’t accept it.”
Cursing her?
Wu Mei didn’t like what she heard. Languidly, she crossed her legs and said, “Kneel. It’s fine. Even if both of you kneel together, I can accept it.”
2
Wu Pang was speechless from shock!
Yang Shan was speechless from shock as well!
1
Wu Yi was so angry that her lips were trembling. Seeing how Li Nanchen was defending Wu Mei, she wanted to sow discord between them. She stood up and pointed at Wu Mei as she said sternly, “Brother-in-law, don’t be fooled by her! You’re so protective of her, but she wants to divorce you. Why is that?”
1
Wu Yi laughed coldly and said, “Who knows, she might have another man outside and cuckolded you! That paramour is looking forward to her divorce so that he can be together with her!”
