Shi Mei confronted Qian Hao, revealing that he orchestrated Qian Hao's downfall for offending Shi Keke. Qian Hao realized Shi Keke, the lawyer he publicly humiliated and propositioned, was Shi Mei's woman and a member of the powerful Shi family. Shi Mei then gave Qian Hao a cruel ultimatum: choose between ruining his family or losing his fortune, implying his wife or daughter would be forced into prostitution.

"I choose family destruction, a wife taking the stage is fine!" Qian Hao nearly blurted out his decision without a second thought. Faced with the ruin of his family and the loss of all assets, he opted for the former. Between his wife and daughter, he also chose the latter to step forward.

To Qian Hao, whether Zhang Er prospered or suffered in the future was no longer his concern. Their marital bond had completely dissolved following the day's proceedings; from this point on, their paths would diverge entirely, each going their separate ways.

The act of divorcing her was already equivalent to destroying the family. Whether she would step onto a stage or resort to selling herself for company was of no consequence to him.

"Hmm, excellent." Shi Mei applauded, a seemingly casual action that nonetheless possessed a distinct allure, akin to a masterpiece meticulously crafted by a sculptor—utterly perfect, without a single flaw.

"Now you can let me go, can’t you? I’ve taken the fall for you and made the choice you dictated. At the very least, I promise that any encounter with Lawyer Shi will result in my immediate withdrawal, ensuring I never cross her path again to offend her sight..." Qian Hao, desperate to escape, felt compelled to concede.

"Very well." Shi Mei’s lips curved into a smile that held a wealth of unspoken meaning.

A sense of unease washed over Qian Hao, though he couldn't articulate why, prompting him to ask, "Are you truly going to release me?"

Shi Mei offered no verbal reply, instead turning to gesture for his subordinate to retrieve a tablet from his sports car.

Just as Qian Hao was consumed by a profound sense of bewilderment, Shi Mei’s subordinate produced the tablet, presenting it with both hands.

Shi Mei accepted the device, powered it on, and with practiced ease, his defined fingers navigated the screen, revealing a recently created photo gallery.

His slender finger lightly pressed the screen, magnifying a woman’s photograph to ten times its original size.

Shi Mei held the tablet so it faced Qian Hao, who instantly recognized the woman depicted. His face drained of color, and his hands, bound tightly behind him, clenched into fists as he demanded, "What is the meaning of this..."

"Nothing of import. I merely heard that Boss Qian not only has Zhang Er as a wife but also a sixteen-year-old illegitimate daughter." Shi Mei spoke with a glint in his eyes, entirely at ease.

Having finished speaking, he casually let the tablet fall. The subordinate instinctively reached out, his reflexes sharp enough to catch and steady the device.

"You've been spying on me!" Qian Hao finally mustered a semblance of a man's resolve, yelling with frantic intensity at Shi Mei: "Investigating a person's private life through illicit means is against the law. Doesn't Young Master Shi understand this? To stoop to such tactics for the sake of a woman!"

"What, you find this unacceptable?" Shi Mei let out a soft chuckle, yet despite the laughter, an aura of lethal hostility radiated from him, sending a chill to the bone.

Qian Hao had harbored the belief that his acquiescence would lead to his release by Shi Mei. However, reality starkly contradicted this, revealing it was merely a carefully laid trap designed to ensnare him.

"Since you're determined to be so merciless, I see no reason for courtesy! Today, I will fight you!"

When a person reaches the zenith of their rage, impulsive actions often follow. Qian Hao lunged at Shi Mei like a deranged beast, but before he could close the distance, he was forcefully sent sprawling backward by a kick from Shi Mei’s subordinate.
