Chapter 276

So what was really going on?

Then Aunt understood why when her friend explained that Elder Feng\'s health wasn\'t good and he had been continuously injured. Feng Yunhe had said that medical care abroad was more advanced, and recovering overseas would definitely be faster.

Therefore, the couple was preparing to take a private jet abroad the next morning. Feng Yunhe had already arranged everything with the hospital; the couple just needed to go.

What else was there to wait for?

Elder Feng had been injured several times recently and had become extremely cautious about his life, fearing a sudden accident might take him away.

As for power struggles, those had become secondary to preserving his life.

Without life, no amount of money matters.

Feng Yunhe\'s reason for sending the couple away was very reasonable. Elder Feng now valued his life above all else, and besides, he only had Feng Yunhe as his son.

Everything Elder Feng owned would eventually belong to Feng Yunhe, so he didn\'t think too deeply about it, even believing Feng Yunhe was being a filial son.

Speaking of which, with today\'s advanced internet and such a grand homecoming banquet at the Sheng family that had invited many media outlets for publicity, there should have been related news coverage.

This brings us to the #XiJingshuAssault# incident. Could a simple news story about a wealthy family\'s return compete with news about a wealthy family\'s young lady publicly beating her brother-in-law?

Of course not.

In this internet age where traffic is king, the media attending the banquet naturally had to weigh which news would bring more traffic to their outlets.

Media professionals with years of experience in news reporting had keen instincts about which stories would go viral.

Without hesitation, they chose the story about the young lady\'s assault.

Of course, since they were invited by the Sheng family to attend the banquet, the media present still showed respect by publishing a flattering news piece about the family, praising the Sheng family\'s history and the current family head\'s great strategies.

But nobody read it.

Netizens preferred the more eye-catching story about the young lady\'s assault, which instantly went viral.

The Xi family didn\'t try to suppress this news through media contacts; instead, they fueled it from behind the scenes.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

After all, since Xi Jingshu had already hit Jin Cai and burned that bridge, there was no point in hoping to repair the relationship. They might as well knock him down completely and ensure he never recovers.

As for trying to salvage the relationship because they were family?

This brings us to Jin Cai\'s past actions. Internal company investigations confirmed the existence of sexual harassment against female subordinates.

The Xi family couldn\'t tolerate such behavior; they couldn\'t accept such a son-in-law and husband.

So for the Xi family, Jin Cai became a disposable pawn.

After the hashtag about the Xi family\'s young lady\'s assault went viral, news about Jin Cai\'s secret harassment of female subordinates rode the wave and topped the trending lists.

Xi Jingshu\'s reputation had never been better. Just the day before, people had commented on how difficult it was to be a son-in-law in a wealthy family. Though appearing glamorous on the surface, who knew what kind of life they led behind closed doors? When even your sister-in-law could beat you in public, it was clear what kind of life you must be living.

Jin Cai\'s fairy-tale wedding with Xi Jingshu\'s elder sister had once made countless men envious of marrying a rich man\'s daughter.

Now, glimpsing that Jin Cai\'s married life might not be happy, these people became excited, spawning numerous comments about how daughters from wealthy families were overbearing and how pitiful it was to be a son-in-law in a rich family.

The Xi family parents and two daughters were portrayed as domineering figures, and while many envied Jin Cai, it didn\'t prevent people from feeling sorry for him.

Until female employees reported that Jin Cai had used his position to sexually harass them. If they didn\'t comply, he would engage in workplace bullying, assigning them all the dirty work, mobilizing others to isolate them, and spreading rumors about them trying to seduce him.

Using these tactics, Jin Cai had forced out three female employees in just a year and a half.

This behavior was condemned by everyone, and Xi Jingshu earned the title of female hero.

Xi Jingshu\'s glorious deeds from childhood were uncovered, revealing her early manifestation of extraordinary heroic abilities. In elementary school, she could take down boys taller than her when they lifted girls\' skirts.

In middle school, she fought with street thugs who were bullying girls from her class.

Counting carefully, it was truly the life of a female hero.

Due to this positive image, stocks of various companies controlled by the Xi family saw a surge.

This was due to both Xi Jingshu\'s positive heroic image and the Xi family\'s refusal to shield the wrongdoing Jin Cai, establishing a positive corporate image through this incident.

As a result of this affair, Xi family stocks soared, and the female subordinates targeted by Jin Cai received compensation.

Xi Jingshu\'s elder sister, having enjoyed Jin Cai\'s prime years and now facing an aging Jin Cai, had a legitimate reason to divorce him.

The public got to enjoy a wealthy family drama that enriched their leisure time.

Only Jin Cai saw his wealthy family dreams shattered, with his wife seeking divorce, facing high compensation claims from the company and harassed girls, and his shameful deeds becoming known nationwide, including to his relatives, friends, classmates, and his parents\' neighbors.

His ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​‍life had become miserable. Expelled from the Xi family villa, he now lived in the small villa he had bought before marriage.

Having become "famous," he now feared going out, dreading people\'s strange looks.

Even so, life hadn\'t finished with him. Some shameless internet celebrities seeking attention surrounded his small villa, livestreaming daily.

It wasn\'t clear what they were broadcasting every day, but it endlessly annoyed him.

Unlike her former brother-in-law, Xi Jingshu was overjoyed. Her sister was about to dump her former brother-in-law, whom she had long despised, and now her dream was finally coming true.

Discovering her former brother-in-law\'s true nature and urging her sister to divorce him.

Shi Li was her great benefactor, her little angel.

Xi Jingshu, being simple-minded, had strong feelings about repaying debts of gratitude. She began pondering how to repay her benefactor.

Then she thought of Feng Yunhe lying in the hospital.

It seemed Shi Li really liked Feng Yunhe.
