I didn't have a good impression of those two powerful individuals but they were Mai Qi's family. They cared about her in their complicated ways and I needed Mai Qi to know that.
This whole thing was a baiting operation using Mai Qi, but the girl was still warmed by their concern.
Mai Qi's father and brother cared about her but they also used her to smoke out the Brothers who sided with Mrs. Mai to ruin Mai Qi's family. As I had said, this was a complicated family.
While I had a heart-to-heart with Mai Qi, things had exploded at the Shi Family. Mrs. Mai went to demand Mai Qi from them.
Shi Feng was missing and Mrs. Mai kept being fed scandals about Shi Feng's perversions. Mrs. Mai was terrified and angry. Ye Qian and Gu Yan could not appease her. Mrs. Mai insisted that the Shi Family hand Mai Qi over. However, the Shi Family could not find Mai Qi or Shi Feng.
