Shen Nanzhi had been with Lu Yanzhou for seven years, yet she couldn't compare to the excitement and novelty others brought him. She prided herself on being an emotional repair specialist, safe...
Chapter 176 Something Happened
This is the first time Shu Yuan and Shu Li have gone out to eat together since they came to the Shen family.
Although they did not officially announce Shu Li's identity, in the eyes of outsiders, they had already acknowledged her identity as the eldest daughter.
"Li Li, just order whatever you want to eat later. Look at you, you've become so thin. It makes me sad to see you."
Mother Shen held Shu Li’s hand and spoke to her gently.
Shu Yuan, Shen Fuling and her eldest son Shen Mo followed her.
As for my husband and other sons, they were busy and didn't come.
Hearing what Shen's mother said, Shu Li lowered her head and hummed softly, her body as thin as a piece of paper.
Shu Yuan smiled and continued, "Lili, you must eat more later. You can't let Auntie worry."
The three of them get along very happily.
Although the aloof Shen Mo didn't say anything, from his gentle eyes and brows, it can be seen that he is in a good mood at the moment.
Except Shen Fuling.
As the adopted daughter of the Shen family, she was the only eldest daughter in the family before Shu Li appeared.
Even though the Shen family announced that she was an adopted daughter, she posed no threat.
But things were different when Shu Li came back.
Her position is precarious.
Shen Fuling put on a good face and was about to intervene, but when she turned the corner she met the person she least wanted to see.
Shen Nanzhi!
Shen Fuling gritted her teeth and called out her name in her heart.
A flash of jealousy flashed across his eyes.
"Nanzhi?"
The first one to call out to Shen Nanzhi was Shen's mother.
The two met only once, and they parted before they had time to talk.
But Mother Shen always remembered her.
The surprise in his eyes flashed by, and seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Shen Nanzhi simply called Aunt Wang openly.
Shu Yuan suddenly became alert.
She suppressed the panic in her heart and pretended to be calm and asked, "Is Miss Shen coming here to eat too?"
"Yeah, with friends."
Shen's mother said: "Why don't we share a table together, it will be more lively when there are more people eating."
There was a barely perceptible glimmer of hope in the lady's eyes. What she didn't know was that her unintentional invitation actually made the hearts of the two people present skip a beat at the same time.
One is Shu Yuan.
Another one is Shen Fuling.
At this time, they are on the same front.
Shen Nanzhi took in the changes in their expressions, curled the corners of his lips, turned the words on his lips, and happily agreed, "Okay."
These two words successfully controlled their facial expressions and almost broke them down.
This is exactly the effect Shen Nanzhi wants.
Shen's mother booked a private room in advance. Shen Nanzhi returned to the hall and explained the reason. Fu Lingshuang and Zhu Qing'an had no objection.
The group of eight people just made up a round table.
The environment of the box is elegant. Not far in front, there is a rockery as decoration. The sound of flowing water is "gurgling". If you ignore the atmosphere at the table, there is really a sense of tranquility.
"Nanzhi, Shuangshuang, take a look at what you want to eat. Don't be polite with your aunt."
Mother Shen had met Fu Lingshuang before, so it was not surprising that she knew him.
Only Zhu Qing'an was a stranger to her.
While waiting for the food to be served, Shen's mother had many questions she wanted to ask Shen Nanzhi, but she felt that it was too abrupt and was afraid of scaring her, so she had to give up.
Seeing this, Shu Yuan and Shen Fuling breathed a sigh of relief.
Maybe they were overthinking it.
Shen's mother invited Shen Nanzhi to dinner together, probably just for Fu Qingyan's sake, and mentioned it casually.
Who knew that Shen Nanzhi had such low EQ that she actually agreed!
How stupid and evil!
Shen Nanzhi, who had become a thorn in the eyes of the two, received their malicious gazes and looked back provocatively.
Shu Yuan forced a smile: “…Sure enough, there is a reason why she doesn’t like Shen Nanzhi.
In addition to the fact that Shen Nanzhi looks like a member of the Shen family, another point is that their magnetic fields are incompatible.
This was vividly demonstrated from the first time they met abroad.
As for Shen Fuling, she never liked Shen Nanzhi from the beginning to the end.
But due to her character, she couldn't say anything.
The incident of scheming against Shen Nanzhi at the charity dinner was almost exposed.
But fortunately, Ji Yunshu, the big villain, took the blame for her, otherwise the Shen family really would not tolerate her.
This is also one of the reasons why she didn't dare to attack Shu Li in these days.
No one can tolerate someone who threatens his or her status.
and……
The Shen family’s reaction was so strange.
Shen Fuling had secretly observed for a long time. The missing eldest daughter of the Shen family was particularly important to Shen's father and mother.
Even if they didn't meet her in person, the whole family would prepare birthday gifts for her on time.
The Shen family even had a large room reserved specifically for her.
But when Shu Li came back as the eldest daughter of the Shen family, she lived in another room.
Although the configuration is similar to that room, why bother with this?
There must be something fishy going on.
Shen Fuling cleverly pretended to know nothing.
The dishes were served one after another. Shu Yuan sat next to Shu Li. When she saw Shu Li about to pick up the scrambled eggs with tomatoes, she quickly stopped her, "Li Li, have you forgotten that you are allergic to tomatoes? You accidentally ate some last time and it scared me to death!"
Is Shuli also allergic to tomatoes?
Zhu Qingan and Shen Nanzhi looked over at the same time.
Shu Li's eyelashes trembled and her lips moved, but she said nothing.
She seemed to have always been this fragile.
Shen Nanzhi had met her two or three times, but the number of times she had heard her speak was very few.
Shu Yuan, on the other hand, kept talking non-stop.
For some reason, Shen Nanzhi at this moment thought of the photo he saw on the wall outside when he went to watch the car race.
The woman in the photo is bright and outgoing, and her name is also Shu Li.
"I didn't expect Lili to inherit this problem from me."
Mother Shen laughed and personally picked up another dish for Shu Li, stir-fried shrimp, "Li Li is so thin, you should eat more."
Shu Yuan immediately agreed, "Yes, Lili, eat more. You can tell your sister if you want to eat anything."
Shu Li looked at the shrimps in the bowl and didn't want to pick up her chopsticks.
She sat there stiffly, and only reacted normally when Shu Yuan secretly pinched her thigh.
Under the gazes of several people, Shu Li slowly chewed and swallowed the shrimp.
Fu Lingshuang frowned.
She lowered her voice and said to Shen Nanzhi, "Sister Nanzhi, do you think Shu Li is weird?"
There's something indescribably strange about it.
Fu Lingshuang has been looking at Shu Li since a while ago.
She had heard of the eldest daughter of the Shen family a long time ago.
Today was the first time they met, but Shu Li's appearance was very different from the image of a young lady she had imagined.
Quiet and timid.
Not only that, she doesn't seem to like shrimps? She likes tomatoes.
But people who are allergic to tomatoes like to eat tomatoes?
Shen Nanzhi nodded, “Yes, a little.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the chopsticks in Shu Li's hand suddenly fell. Amidst a worried cry, she clutched the lapels of her clothes tightly with both hands, cold sweat on her forehead, her facial features wrinkled in pain, and she gasped heavily.
"Call a doctor! Call a doctor!"
