Ro ng Qi asked, “What kind of statement?”

Rong Tianshi replied, “Your sister has been targeted by rumors and slander after her debut. If this continues, it will seriously affect her career. And the root cause of this issue is the song you both fought for at the Freshman Assembly. I suggest you issue a statement claiming that the song is your sister’s original creation and that you caused this controversy due to a momentary lapse of judgment. After considering it, 1 believe this is the best solution for now. Feiyu’s manager also believes that the key point of this matter lies with you.”

“Haha,” Rong Qi sneered. “The best solution? Mr. Rong, you are saying that the best solution is to sacrifice one daughter to benefit another daughter?”

Rong Tianshi was taken aback by her words, and his face displayed a slight hint of stiffness. A trace of unease flickered in his eyes. His tone was no longer as assertive as before. He said, “What’s the problem with that? Your sister is a public figure now, and her reputation must not be tarnished. Besides, you’re not making a debut anyway. It s just a statement. What’s the big deal?”

Rong Qi was on the verge of laughing at Rong Tianshi’s logic. She said, “So, has Mr. Rong considered how people will perceive me if I issue the statement? Have you thought about what 1 will face afterward? Once the statement is out, have you considered how 1 will stand among my classmates?”

Rong Qi had suspected that Rong Feiyu’s silence until now was due to this plan. She thought, ‘Ha, I had underestimated her. Who would have thought she could come up with such an idea, conspiring with Wang Qing to bring Rong Tianshi here.’

“You… Don’t you have Mr. Ye behind you? With Mr. Ye by your side, who would dare to mistreat you?” Rong Tianshi said. “But your sister is different. She’s already debuted, and if she’s labeled as a song thief, it will be hard for her to establish herself in the entertainment industry.”

Rong Qi sneered and said, “If she establishes herself by stealing, she’s bound to fail sooner or later. Today she stole my grandfather’s work. You can force me to issue a statement now, but what if tomorrow she steals someone else s work? Will Mr. Rong force others to issue statements like this? If you want to succeed, do it based on your own abilities. If you make a mistake, it’s okay to face it. 1 would respect you more if you stood up straight instead of cowering and seeking others’ help. It makes me doubt that this is the family’s ethos.”

Rong Feiyu’s face turned pale from Rong Qi’s mockery. She bit her lip, appearing aggrieved, and said, “Qi, does that mean you don’t want to help me?” “Why should I help you? This isn’t helping you; it’s harming me,” Rong Qi retorted.

“But we’re sisters! Can’t you help me with this little thing and prevent me from being attacked? It s just a statement. Is it really that difficult for you, Qi?” Rong Feiyu asked.

Rong Qi didn’t say anything and just faintly smiled.

Han Ning, who had been watching Rong Qi’s reactions, grew increasingly worried as her complexion turned even paler. Yet, Rong Tianshi and Rong Feiyu seemed to have no intention of leaving, making him curse inwardly. “Anyway, you’re unwilling to issue the statement and help your sister?” Rong Tianshi’s cold voice finally broke the silence after awhile.

Rong Qi leaned against the wall, furrowing her brows in pain, and said, “Yes.”

“In that case, how about I exchange ten thousand for your statement?” Rong Tianshi asked through gritted teeth.

“Heh heh…” Rong Qi only chuckled without answering.

Rong Tianshi clenched his teeth and grabbed Rong Feiyu’s arm. “Feiyu, let’s go! Why should we associate with such a heartless and ungrateful person? Let her handle her own fate.. I don’t want to care about her anymore! Don’t worry, I’ll think of another solution for you!”
