On Lunar New Year's Eve, the three Shen brothers, along with their reluctant sister Shen Xuanqi, came to the hospital to pick up Jing Yu and her daughter.

"It's the New Year, why aren't you with your sugar daddy? What are you doing here at our house? Ah... I guess you're too lowly to be recognized by the Fei family and can't get in. No wonder you're shamelessly trying to make do at our house."

Upon meeting, Shen Xuanqi launched into a barrage of sarcastic remarks at Jing Li.

"Xuanxuan!"

Shen Yuanfan frowned and scoffed, but it was too late; everyone present heard her sarcasm.

Jing Li didn't take this spoiled little princess seriously. Her words couldn't hurt the strong-willed Jing Li in the slightest, but they did make Jing Yu's expression change.

"Xiao Fan, Xiao Ze, Xiao Ting, Xiao Jinli and I discussed it last night and decided that it's best to go back to our own homes. It's the Lunar New Year, and we don't want to bother you..."

She couldn't bear to hear anyone say anything bad about her daughter, not even about Shen Xuanqi, whom she had breastfed. Knowing full well that the other party didn't like her, she couldn't possibly let her daughter go to their house and suffer grievances.

For more than a decade, the mother and daughter had always made do with each other during holidays, and it didn't matter whether they went to the Shen family's house or not.

"Mom... Xuanxuan is being unreasonable, please don't take it to heart. Xuanxuan, apologize to Ali!"

Shen Yuanfan panicked upon hearing this and grabbed Shen Xuanqi's hand, forcibly demanding that she apologize.

"Why should I apologize? I didn't say anything wrong. Does she, a mistress, expect to be acknowledged by the Fei family? She did such a despicable thing, why shouldn't people be allowed to talk about it!"

Pouting, Shen Xuanqi retorted.

It's true that she grew up on Jing Yu's milk, but that was when she was a baby. She had never seen Jing Yu since she could remember, so she naturally didn't feel the same gratitude she did for the three brothers.

"Who said she's my mistress?"

Just as they were frozen in place, a cold male voice sounded from behind.

Everyone instinctively turned around and saw Fei Mo, slightly out of breath, staring coldly at Shen Xuanqi.

In an instant, a chill swept over her, and Shen Xuanqi shivered deeply, instinctively shrinking behind her older brother Shen Yuanfan for protection.

"I'm sorry, Young Master Fei, my sister is just being immature..."

A cold sweat broke out on his back, and Shen Yuanfan hurriedly apologized. Even someone as worldly-wise as him was frightened by the intense malevolence emanating from Fei Mo.

It's hard to imagine that this killing intent came from Fei Mo, who was known as a lazy young nobleman. It was the kind of killing intent that only a fierce general who had crawled out of a pile of corpses possessed.

"At three or five years old, one can describe them as young and ignorant. But for an 18-year-old adult to be so young and ignorant and speak recklessly indicates a problem with family education. Mr. Shen is upright and honest, yet he has raised such a brain-dead person. It is truly regrettable."

Fei Mo sneered, his words sharp, causing the three Shen brothers' expressions to change on the spot.

I want to have an outburst, but I can't.

Shen Xuanqi's arrogance is indeed a result of their spoiling.

Their faces flushed red and then turned pale; the three brothers hung their heads, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Auntie, I was filming and couldn't come back to visit you. You're not angry with me, are you?"

Fei Mo, who had just exuded a powerful aura, seamlessly transformed into a sunny and warm-hearted man, handing the flowers in his hand to Jing Yu and starting to act coquettishly.

Jing Yu was touched by his act of standing up for Jing Liqiang. She smiled, took the flower, smelled it, and said reproachfully, "You came back to see me so early in the morning during the New Year. You're so thoughtful."

Jing Li, his official girlfriend, remained completely unmoved, simply watching him act cool—no, act cute.
