Chapter 87 She Disagrees

When Wen Changyu came out, he closed the door slightly, leaving a wide gap. As a result, Xu Shanshan, who was lying on the bed, heard everything Wen Jinzhou said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Shanshan dug her fingernails into her palm.

A family reunion banquet?

Doesn't that tell everyone that Qianqian is a usurper in this family and is not favored?

She disagrees!

Wen Changyu, standing at the door, was unaware of her thoughts. After hearing Wen Jinzhou's words, he nodded and said, "Yes, we should prepare a family reunion banquet, otherwise no one will know that your sister has returned."

"Let me take a look and pick a suitable day."

Wen Jinzhou nodded, then glanced into the bedroom and lowered his voice, "Is Mom asleep?"

Wen Changyu shook his head, "Your mother is in a bad mood and didn't eat dinner tonight."

Upon hearing this, Wen Jinzhou's smile vanished, and he could only tell his father, "Take good care of Mom!"

"Um!"

"Call me if you need anything," Wen Jinzhou said before returning to his room, and Wen Changyu also turned and went back to his room.

Inside the room, Xu Shanshan, lying on the bed, was thinking about how to persuade Wen Changyu to give up on holding the family reunion banquet.

She pondered, and realized she could only start with herself.

Then Wen Changyu heard her suppressed sobs.

This immediately made Wen Changyu tense. "What's wrong?"

Xu Shanshan didn't answer him immediately; instead, she covered her face with her pillow and cried silently.

Wen Changyu was at a loss. This tall, strong man in his fifties was as helpless as a child in front of her. "Shanshan, are you feeling unwell?"

"Shall I take you to the hospital to get it checked out?"

“If you don’t eat, your health will suffer,” Wen Changyu said, expressing his concern word by word.

"Wen Changyu, you blame me too, don't you?" Xu Shanshan said suddenly, noticing that it was almost time.

This seemingly random statement left Wen Changyu completely bewildered.

"I... Shanshan, what are you talking about?"

Xu Shanshan sat up in bed, her face cold as she accused the helpless Wen Changyu, "You blame me, you blame me for losing the child back then," she said, tears falling again.

Wen Changyu immediately denied it, saying, "No, I have never blamed you." He even raised his hand, "I can swear."

Seeing Xu Shanshan's pained expression, Wen Changyu could only blame himself. "Shanshan, I have never blamed you. I only blame myself."

"If I hadn't devoted myself entirely to my work back then and spent so little time with you, leaving you to take the child out alone, none of this would have happened... none of this would have occurred. How could I possibly blame you?"

Xu Shanshan tightened her lips. "Not blaming me?"

"What do you mean by 'I don't blame your family for holding a family reunion banquet'?"

Wen Changyu: "??"

At this moment, Wen Changyu was also confused.

What does this have to do with holding a family reunion banquet?

"Your family wants to hold a family reunion banquet, isn't that just to tell everyone that I lost the child back then?" Xu Shanshan said sternly.

Wen Changyu: "??"

He still didn't understand the connection.

Seeing his bewildered expression and a look of utter despair, Xu Shanshan said, "That's just the kind of person you are. You'll always be like this, saying one thing and doing another."

"Your whole family is blaming me for the child's disappearance back then, and you all deny it verbally, but your eyes and your actions are nothing short of torture for me," Xu Shanshan said, her voice rising uncontrollably and her expression breaking down.

Wen Changyu knew he was a rough man with little sensitivity, and Xu Shanshan had always argued with him about this since they were young.

Hearing Xu Shanshan bring up this topic again, Wen Changyu instinctively began to reflect on himself.

"Shanshan, I..."

"Get out, get out! I don't want to see you!" Before Wen Changyu could finish his reflection, Xu Shanshan, with red eyes and a cold face, chased him out of the house.

Before Wen Changyu could react, a pillow was thrown directly at his face.

The pillow wasn't heavy, but when it hit Wen Changyu's face, it still made his heart ache.

The hand beside him tightened and loosened, and Wen Changyu forced a smile as he stood up. "I'll go to the study to rest for the night. Don't be angry, don't... make yourself angry."

Wen Changyu's words came from the heart, but Xu Shanshan heard them as sarcastic and sarcastic.

So she gave a cold laugh.

Wen Changyu said nothing more and turned to leave the room.

Xu Shanshan inside the house did not lower her guard because of his departure, because she knew that it would not be easy to get the Wen family to give up holding a family reunion banquet for their own daughter.

But she didn't expect that a few shouts would make the Wen family give up on the matter.

She still has a backup plan.

The next morning, Wen Changyu brought food into the bedroom again, hoping that Xu Shanshan would eat something, but...

"Clang!"

The tray in Wen Changyu's hands, along with the bowls, spoons, and plates, all fell to the ground with a loud crash, leaving a mess.

But Wen Changyu couldn't care less about that, because Xu Shanshan's wrist, hanging by the bedside, was dripping blood onto the floor.

"Shanshan, Shanshan..." Wen Changyu strode to the bedside, calling Xu Shanshan's name frantically and helplessly.

Xu Shanshan barely opened her eyes to look at him, only asking, "Are you satisfied now?" before closing her eyes heavily again.

"Shanshan..." Wen Changyu cried out in anguish, and rushed downstairs with her in his arms.

Wen Jinzhou and Wen Jinshu, who were about to have dinner downstairs, heard the commotion and immediately ran upstairs together. They had only run halfway up when they saw Wen Changyu rushing down with Xu Shanshan's wrist dripping blood.

"Go get the car," Wen Changyu said to his two sons, his face pale.

Wen Jinzhou turned and ran outside, and Wen Jinshu quickly grabbed the coat draped over the back of the chair.

Lin Wenwen jogged to her husband's side and asked, "Should I go with you?"

Wen Jinshu shook her head. "Don't go yet, there won't be enough room in the car. Jinzhou and I will go first."

Lin Wenwen nodded, "Then I'll go to Grandma's place later and tell them about it."

Wen Jinshu thought for a moment and nodded.

Zhizhi is still there. Her biological mother cut her wrists. If she doesn't go to the hospital, things will definitely get worse.

But no one told Zhizhi, so even if Zhizhi wanted to go, she couldn't. So it would be good for Lin Wenwen to go, since it's hard to explain this over the phone, and Grandpa and Grandma Wen are getting old.

Wen Qianqian ran out after Wen Changyu, crying and begging to go with him.

Wen Jinshu rarely scolded her, "What are you howling about? If you want to go, get in the car with me, don't cause trouble at this time!"

Wen Jinshu was much more mature than Wen Jinzhou. When he coldly scolded her, the oppressive feeling was even stronger. Wen Qianqian immediately shut her mouth and sobbed aggrievedly.

Wen Jinshu glanced at her and got into the car first. They lived in this compound, in a detached house with no one else living nearby, but people would still be curious about what was going on if you made a loud noise.

It's not a good thing that people with ulterior motives found out about his mother's wrist-cutting incident.
