But Shen Hao still had doubts, "How did you get this video?"

"What did Wang Ruhai tell you? Did he say that I approached him on my own initiative, wanting to team up with him to deal with you?"

"Isn't it?"

"What do you think? In your eyes, haven't I always been that poor girl living in the slums? Where am I supposed to find evidence of your illegal and disorderly conduct from a few years ago?" Shen Feiwan said with a laugh.

"If I had that ability, why would I have suffered so much all these years? I would have married anyone you told me to. If I went to Wang Ruhai, do you think he would even listen to me?"

Shen Feiwan was lying, but not completely lying.

Shen Hao believed it wholeheartedly because it was a mixture of truth and lies.

When she first went to find Wang Ruhai, he was indeed unwilling to pay attention to her.

She wasn't usually the type to betray her teammates, but this time Wang Ruhai was the one who acted unjustly first, so she couldn't be blamed for being ungrateful.

"So you mean he found you, and now he's turning around and falsely accusing you?"

“That’s right. Wang Ruhai knows better than anyone what you did to my mother back then. He approached me a long time ago, wanting to cooperate with me to expose your shameful deeds when you were young. But I didn’t agree because I still have to marry into the Bo family. It wasn’t easy for the Bo family patriarch to take a liking to me, and I don’t want to be affected by your bad reputation.”

“Wang Ruhai is a dishonest person. When I refused to agree to his advances, he harassed me repeatedly. I didn’t want to sit idly by and wait to die, so I had someone follow him to see if I could find any dirt on him to send to his wife. Unexpectedly, instead of catching him having an affair with his mistress, I managed to get this footage.”

"Then why didn't you tell me sooner?!" Shen Hao had clearly taken Shen Feiwan's words to heart. "You filmed this video before I was reported, why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"Because of my mother!!" Shen Feiwan roared in a low voice, "Do you really think I don't hate you? Do you think I wasn't tempted when Wang Ruhai approached me for cooperation?! You abandoned my mother and me, kicked my grandparents when they were down, caused my mother's family to be destroyed, and made me lose my mother at a young age, living alone in this world for more than ten years! I have suffered the cold looks and humiliation of others! Do you think I would let you go so easily?"

"So you're now teaming up with Wang Ruhai to drive down the price of the shares I hold, is that it?"

Shen Feiwan laughed, "Should I thank you for thinking so highly of me? So you think I'm that amazing? Have you ever thought about who will ultimately benefit once you trust Wang Ruhai? Will it be yourself, or me?"

Shen Hao really thought about it seriously for a moment, "It was him... He said you colluded with those financial institutions. The institutions' offer was about the same as his, but it was negotiable. If I believe him and transfer the shares to him, then he will be the biggest owner of the Shen Group."

“That’s right. After you pay the fine and leave, you’ll find that the Shen family has changed its name to the Wang family. Anyway, I’m already married, so it doesn’t matter to me whether the group is surnamed Shen or Wang. You probably wanted to see me to clarify this matter, right? Now that it’s clear, I should be leaving.”

Shen Feiwan spoke, but showed no intention of leaving.

Shen Hao didn't want her to leave like this. "Wait, but Wanwan, we are father and daughter after all, blood is thicker than water. You can't just stand by and watch her die! Dad knows that although you hate me, you didn't agree to help Wang Ruhai, which means you still care about me as your father. Please help me, okay? You're the only one who can help me now."

Shen Feiwan asked knowingly, "But how does Dad want me to help you?"

“Now that you’re the daughter-in-law of the Bo family and the wife of the president of Bo Corporation, you should ask them for 300 million. No, I misspoke, not ask, but borrow. I’ll pay it back later. You should pay Dad’s taxes and fines first.”

“Dad, that’s three hundred million, not three million or thirty million. Even the Bo family might not be able to come up with that much cash. Besides, they might not even be willing to lend it to me. I just married Bo Junxing and haven’t contributed anything to their family yet.”

"You're lying!" Shen Zhizhi couldn't help but say. "Dad, she's lying! That day I went to Old Master Bo to borrow money, and he almost agreed, but she stopped me. What is three hundred million to the Bo family? It's just a drop in the ocean!"

Shen Zhizhi wanted to take the opportunity to complain.

But Shen Hao only saw hope. "Wanwan, since that's the case, you must help Dad! When Dad gets old, his assets will be divided among you children, but only if Dad can keep them. If he can't pay the taxes and fines, all of Dad's assets and real estate will be seized and auctioned off. If you can help Dad get the money, Dad will make a will right now!"

"Dad!" Shen Zhizhi was getting anxious. How could the property be divided among Shen Feiwan!

Shen Feiwan let out a disdainful laugh. "My father is cunning and calculating, and I'm certainly not stupid. What's a will? It's just a piece of paper that can be changed at any time. You don't really think you can persuade me like that, do you?"

"Then what will it take for you to believe your father?"

“Shen Hao, listen up. I don’t care about your inheritance. But you have to return my mother’s 20% original shares when the company was founded.”

"You wish!" Before Shen Hao could speak, Shen Zhizhi interrupted, "What was the 20% your mother contributed when the company was first established? Now the company's value has increased many times over. Aren't you just trying to get something for nothing? 20%? I'd even give you 1% if you wanted more."

Shen Hao was actually unwilling as well.

Shen Feiwan only gave him a few seconds to think, "It seems your fate is in the hands of your youngest daughter."

After saying that, Shen Feiwan immediately stood up. "Hello, the meeting here is over. Could you please open the door for me?"

"Wait!" Seeing that Shen Feiwan was really about to leave, Shen Hao stood up excitedly, but he was quickly ordered to sit down again.

"Wanwan, you can't be so heartless. Dad really needs this money! I'm begging you!"

"Dad, don't beg him. The real estate agent called me; maybe someone wants to buy our house." Shen Zhizhi quickly answered the phone.

"Hey, yes, I'm selling, and I need it done quickly. ...What?...Are you crazy? I'm selling a house, not doing charity. Why are you robbing people with such a low price?"

"..." Shen Feiwan was starting to suspect that Shen Zhizhi had come to help her out.

Shen Hao was even more disappointed after hearing this. Selling the house would be a drop in the bucket; what he needed was a huge sum of cash, right now!

After much deliberation, he finally relented. He would never have given in if he hadn't been forced into a corner.

"Okay, I agree. I'll transfer 20% of my shares to you. I can have Attorney Cheng draft the agreement. You have to give me 300 million, not a penny less!"

"Okay, but you still owe my mom an apology."

Shen Feiwan picked up the cloth bag in her hand and took out a photo frame containing a portrait of her mother, Gao Lanqing.

Shen Feiwan solemnly placed the portrait on the table and demanded that Shen Hao "kneel down and apologize to my mother, kowtow and admit his mistake."

"Shen Feiwan! Don't push your luck!"

"Zhizhi, how can you talk to your sister like that? Don't interfere in my affairs. It's time to put an end to what happened before."

Shen Feiwan sneered and turned on the phone's video recording function.

Shen Hao pushed back his chair, took a step back, and knelt down before Gao Lanqing's portrait. "I'm sorry, Lanqing. I wronged you and hurt you and our daughter back then. I shouldn't have treated you and our daughter that way. Now I know I was wrong. I will return your 20% stake to our daughter. If you are watching over me from heaven, please forgive me and bless me. I'm so sorry!!"

After recording, Shen Feiwan walked to the side and sent the video out.

He added a line: "[He apologized, though late. Take good care of yourself, I'll come see you after this is over.]"
