Shen Ruojing almost rolled her eyes when she heard her mother’s words. She then asked, “Did you ask father about it?”
Shen Qianhui hesitated. “No, I’m afraid it would hurt his self-esteem.”
Shen Ruojing bluntly said, “Mother, you’re overthinking it. Even if it really hurts his self-esteem, wasn’t he also looked down upon by the Shen family in Sea City before? He’s used to it.”
Shen Qianhui. “…”
Seeing that Shen Qianhui was still hesitating, Shen Ruojing said, “The Shen family has encountered some trouble recently. Since Grandpa wants you to go and stay with the Shen family, there must be a reason. Just go.”
“Okay.” Shen Qianhui reluctantly agreed and asked, “What happened? Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Shen Ruojing hung up the phone and looked at Chu Cichen. “We probably won’t be able to have this meal. Let’s go home first.”
–
Inside the filming set, while Shen Qianhui was secretly calling Shen Ruojing, Jing Zhen was also on the phone with Old Master Bai.
Old Master Bai said, “Now that the four great families have joined forces, the queen should know when to give up, right?”
Jing Zhen rubbed his chin and a sneer appeared on his handsome face. “No, she doesn’t have the word ‘compromise’ in her dictionary.”
Old Master Bai asked again, “Then what should we do?”
Jing Zhen lowered his eyes, full of helplessness. “Let’s just take it one step at a time. She’s crazy, and as long as it’s not the end, no one knows what she will do!”
Old Master Bai was hesitant when he heard this. “Are you sure you don’t want to come home? What she’s doing is actually for you.”
Jing Zhen fell silent for a moment and said, “Contact her and tell her I’m coming home.”
He hung up the phone.
At this moment, Shen Qianhui came back and said to Jing Zhen, “Father called me just now and asked us to go stay with the Shen family for a while.”
Jing Zhen immediately smiled and said, “That’s great! I’ve been wanting to see the Shen family, but I haven’t had the chance. Honey, does the Shen family eat with jade bowls and have golden bricks on the floor?”
Shen Qianhui. “?”
She laughed and said, “How is that possible!”
Jing Zhen scratched his head and said, “Isn’t it because we have never seen such a big mansion before? I heard that the imagination of ordinary people in the past was even worse. I remember reading a book where a pair of farmers were asked if they knew what kind of life the emperor lived. Guess what they said?”
Shen Qianhui was really curious. “What did they say?”
Jing Zhen coughed and said, “They said that the emperor must have a lot of surplus grain at home! There are several warehouses full of food, and when he eats white rice, he can afford to eat one bowl without finishing it, then pour it out and eat another bowl!”
Shen Qianhui couldn’t help but chuckle at what Jing Zhen said.
“One’s experience and knowledge can limit their perspective, so I can only guess,” he said with a smile.
She then walked over to him helplessly. They had packed their luggage and were planning to head to the next filming location, but since Old Master Shen had spoken up, she could only quit the next project.
After all, it was only a minor role.
The two of them got into a car and headed toward the Shen Manor.
On the way, Jing Zhen squinted his eyes and looked outside before suddenly saying to Shen Qianhui, “Wife, we haven’t been abroad in all these years, have we?”
Shen Qianhui nodded. “Yeah, we were busy making money before, and then we were busy raising our daughter. We really haven’t had the chance to travel abroad.”
Jing Zhen then asked, “How about we take a trip abroad?” Shen Qianhui immediately nodded. “Sure!”
Seeing that she didn’t hesitate at all, Jing Zhen couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment before saying, “If we have to settle down abroad, would you be willing to go?”
Shen Qianhui grabbed his hand and said, “Husband, I have no parents in this life. I was used as a tool when I was young and abandoned when I grew up. I only met my birth mother once, and my birth father… this is only the second time I’ve seen him. But I know there is someone in this world who loves me with all his heart, and that person is you. So, as long as I’m with you, I’m willing to live anywhere.”
After saying that, she sat up straight and tried to retract her hand, but it was held tightly by Jing Zhen. She then looked at him in confusion and saw him smile with intense affection in his eyes.
He spoke slowly, “Honey, your hand is too cold, let me warm it up for you.”
Shen Qianhui smiled gently and said, “Okay.”
The two of them arrived at Shen Manor. After that, they were allowed through the gate and led by the housekeeper to the villa where Shen Yuansong lived.
Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen were waiting for them in the parking lot and hurried over to greet them.
When they got out of the car, Shen Ruojing said, “Mother, Father. Grandfather is in a meeting, so let me take you to your rooms first.”
The Shen Manor didn’t have many things, but they had plenty of rooms. Besides, how could Shen Yuansong not have prepared a room for Shen Qianhui when he had prepared one for Shen Ruojing?
Shen Ruojing took a step forward, about to help them with their luggage, but
Chu Cichen stepped forward. “Father-in-law, mother-in-law, let me do it.” Jing Zhen immediately glared at him. “Who is your father-in-law?”
The butler hurried over and took the luggage. “Miss, why don’t you take Miss…”
Uncle Liu paused and laughed at himself before correcting his words. “Little
Miss, why don’t you take Miss upstairs first. ‘
Shen Ruojing didn’t mind these titles and helped Shen Qianhui upstairs.
Their bedroom was on the third floor. As soon as they opened the door, Shen Ruojing was stunned for a moment.
Because in Shen Qianhui’s room, there were two single beds!
Each of the single beds was 1.5 meters and placed on both sides of the room. The meaning was very obvious!
Shen Ruojing instinctively turned around and saw the expression of helplessness on her father’s face.
He couldn’t help but laugh. “It seems that all fathers-in-law in this world don’t like their sons-in-law.”
It was only natural that Shen Yuansong didn’t like Jing Zhen.
A son-in-law who depended on his looks to make a living and couldn’t even provide basic protection for his daughter. How could Shen Yuansong be satisfied with such a son-in-law?
Not forcing Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen to divorce was already Shen Yuansong’s greatest mercy toward Shen Qianhui!
The butler quietly retreated when he saw this situation.
Shen Ruojing was about to say something while holding Shen Qianhui’s hand, but Shen Qianhui suddenly felt uncomfortable and rushed to the bathroom to vomit.
Shen Ruojing. “?”
“Darling, what’s wrong with you?”
Jing Zhen rushed over in a hurry.
After approaching, Shen Ruojing’s face became serious. She pushed Jing Zhen aside and came to Shen Qianhui, holding her wrist.
One minute later, Shen Ruojing had a complicated look on her face.
She looked at Jing Zhen before glancing at Shen Qianhui again.
That look made Jing Zhen and Shen Qianhui both uneasy.
Shen Qianhui asked, “Jingjing, what’s wrong with me? I haven’t had an appetite recently, and my limbs are weak…”
Jing Zhen immediately shouted, “Wife, don’t be afraid. If you have a terminal illness, I won’t live by myself either!’
Shen Ruojing.
