Chapter 383 What is she?!
"Xiu Jin, you can't say things like that carelessly."
Han Xi leaned back lazily on the sofa and smiled faintly: "Of course I know. I was just saying it casually since there were no outsiders around."
"As for Han Shiyu secretly instigating Wu Zhongquan to tamper with the safety measures on set, Uncle and Father can investigate if they don't believe me. I believe it would be easy for you two to find out the truth with your abilities."
Han Yi's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and slowly took a sip of tea: "Xiu Jin, I still think there must be some misunderstanding about this matter."
"Misunderstanding?" Han Xi curled his lips: "Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, just ask Han Shiyu. She met the Wu family abroad, and the two conspired to make Ali suffer. We can find out how she connected with the Wu family and how she controlled Wu Zhongquan through the Wu family's daughter."
Han Yi pursed his lips and remained silent.
Han Ming was furious: "So what if she met the Wu family abroad? It's normal for Shi Yu to make two friends from China while she's alone abroad. Even so, it doesn't prove she's harming anyone! Han Xi, are you blinded by that Xu Fangli? You're even doubting your own sister for a woman?!"
"Father."
Han Xi's voice was icy cold, "You know perfectly well who's lost their mind! You've protected Han Shiyu for twenty years, don't you know what kind of person she is?!"
"Snapped!"
Han Ming smashed the teacup, spilling tea all over the floor.
"All I know is that Shiyu is your sister. If you don't side with her, you have no right to criticize her!"
"So, you're still going to protect her?"
"You heartless wretch, what I do is none of your business!"
Han Xi stood up, straightened his sleeves, and said with a cold look in his eyes, "Fine, since that's the case, I'll have to deal with her myself."
"You dare!" Han Ming shouted.
"Father can wait and see."
Han Xi left without looking back, and soon the sound of an engine starting could be heard in the courtyard.

Not long after Han Xi left, Han Yi and Han Ming made a phone call to Han Shiyu, who was abroad.
Due to the time difference between China and other countries, Han Shiyu was sleeping when the call connected.
"Shiyu, there's something Dad wants to ask you."
Han Shiyu, still half asleep and clutching the blanket, said, "Okay, go ahead and ask."
"Your second brother came today..."
Before he could even finish speaking, a single sentence was enough to instantly sober Han Shiyu up, her expression changing drastically.
She suddenly opened her eyes, staring into the dark air, and asked hesitantly, "What...did my second brother say?"
Upon hearing this tone, Han Yi already had a plan in mind.
But thinking of Han Ming beside him, he still asked again seriously, "He said that you and the Wu family colluded to sabotage your second sister-in-law's investment project, causing two actors to be seriously injured, you..."
"I don't!"
Han Shiyu denied it too quickly, and only after she finished speaking did she realize that there was something wrong. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "I do know Wu Sirou, but we are just ordinary friends. We usually go shopping and have tea together. How could I ask her to do something that would harm my own family?"
"Dad, what's wrong with my second brother? Why does he suspect me the first thing every time something happens? I've been hiding abroad, isn't that enough? Why is he pressing me so hard? Does he want me to die?!"
"Shiyu, that's not what your second brother meant."
"Shiyu, you mustn't think like that. Your second brother is bewitched by that woman. Don't worry, as long as you didn't do it, I will make sure your second brother doesn't wrong you!"
Hearing Han Ming's voice, Han Shiyu realized that he was there too.
Instantly, her voice became even more aggrieved, "Second Uncle, I really don't know how to get Second Brother's forgiveness. Last time it was Benny who caused the trouble, and I didn't want it to happen either!"
"Your second uncle knows, sweetie, don't cry, your second uncle is here for you!"
"Second Uncle, when can I come back? I really don't want to stay abroad anymore. I don't know anyone here. I want to go home so badly..."
Hearing the aggrieved crying from the phone, Han Ming's heart ached.
"You can come back anytime you want, your second uncle will arrange it for you!"
"But what about my second brother...?"
"Who cares what he does! Even if you come back, he won't dare to do anything to you! Pack your things in the next couple of days, and your second uncle will have someone buy you a plane ticket to bring you back!"
It seems that even now, Han Ming still doesn't understand his son well enough.
He never took Han Xi's threats and warnings to heart.
Little did they know that Han Xi's patience had already reached its limit, and the little affection left between father and son was being worn away by repeated arguments.

After two days of online turmoil, Star Media finally issued an official statement and held a press conference at the company entrance that afternoon.
Media reporters and even fans who had been following the matter closely and were waiting for Xingyu to give an explanation all rushed over.
The press conference started promptly at 5 p.m.
Without further ado, Shi Hang and Sun Jin went on stage as soon as the time was up.
"Hello everyone, we are the heads of Xingyu Media, and also the directors and executive producers of Shenhuangdao."
The moment the two opened their mouths, the room erupted in chaos.
"Having gone on for so long, why haven't you given a direct response? Have you been working on a countermeasure behind the scenes?"
"It's said that Fan Zhe's injuries are quite severe. If he doesn't recover well, he may be unable to walk for the rest of his life. How does your company plan to compensate him?"
"Some people say that Xingyu Media's collaboration with a wire harness company that lacked proper qualifications led to the safety accident. Is this true?"
"When the filming of 'The Legend of the Divine Emperor' started, you two mentioned that the film and television adaptation rights of 'The Legend of the Divine Emperor' were generously sponsored by Liyun Media. Is Liyun Media involved in this matter?"
"I heard that Li Yun and Xing Yu are discussing a merger. After this incident, will Li Yun and Xing Yu share the responsibility for the consequences?"
"........"
"Xingyu Media will not shirk responsibility for any losses suffered by the two actors and the crew, but this matter has nothing to do with Liyun Media!"
No sooner had Shi Hang finished speaking than a reporter asked in response:
"It seems that President Shi and Li Yun have a very good relationship. He is still protecting Li Yun. May I ask what benefits Li Yun has given you? Or is it that you have your eye on the Han family behind Li Yun and want to use Li Yun to get on the Han family's big ship?!"
"What nonsense!"
"Whether he's lying or not, Mr. Shi knows for sure. I heard that yesterday Mr. Shi settled all the actors' salaries in one lump sum, and also paid for the equipment and venue rental. Everyone knows Xingyu's situation. May I ask where Mr. Shi got such a large sum of money?!"
"......"
"Please answer this, Mr. Shi!"
Please answer this question!
As the reporters below the stage pressed them harder and harder, Shi Hang and Sun Jin looked grim, but they didn't know how to answer.
At that moment, a clear, cold voice broke in.
Although it wasn't high, everyone present could hear it clearly, and the noisy reporters immediately fell silent.
"I gave them the money, do you guys have any questions?"
