Shen Haobai's face was stern, and he stared at the door plaque of the Marquis' Mansion with a cold gaze.
After hearing the footsteps, Shen Haobai's eyes moved downwards.
The moment he saw Shen Ningyuan, his originally stern expression instantly softened.
Shen Haobai turned over and dismounted, quickly running to Shen Ningyuan.
His hand trembled as he raised it, as if he wanted to touch Shen Ningyuan's face.
But the next second, he restrained himself and lowered his hands, saying in a deep voice: "Sister, big brother is here to take you home!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Ningyuan's voice choked instantly, "Brother..."
My eyes also turned red uncontrollably.
"Sister, don't cry!"
Seeing Shen Ningyuan crying, Shen Haobai immediately panicked and wiped Shen Ningyuan's tears at a loss.
"Sister, did that filthy family bully you?"
"If you have any grievances, you must tell me and I will seek justice for you!"
Seeing Shen Ningyuan still sobbing, Shen Haobai gritted his teeth and said, "I knew it. Ji Yunchuan is gone! Those wicked people in the Ji family will definitely bully you..."
Shen Haobai almost gritted his teeth, "I'm going to destroy the Ji family right now and get rid of this evil!"
As he spoke, Shen Haobai glared at the gate of the Ji family with resentment, and was about to rush in with a spear in hand.
“Brother——” Shen Ningyuan quickly stopped Shen Haobai.
“Chen Haobai, come back!” Shen Potian also ordered in a deep voice.
Shen Haobai gave up at this point, turned around and looked at Shen Potian unwillingly.
She angrily asked, "Dad! Are you just going to sit there and watch your sister get bullied by them?"
Shen Haobai clenched his fists in anger, and veins bulged on the back of his hands.
He gritted his teeth and said, "At first, the Ji family sent news that my sister had committed suicide for Ji Yunchuan... But when we rushed over, my sister was standing in front of us in good health. If you say there is no trick behind this, I absolutely don't believe it!"
Shen Haobai became more and more angry as he spoke, his eyes were almost bloodshot.
Shen Ningyuan knew that although his elder brother was a military commander, he had a gentle temperament and rarely went berserk.
But when he saw that he was wronged, he almost lost his mind.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan reached out and squeezed Shen Haobai's hand like she did when she was a child.
He whispered, "Brother, if there is anything, let's talk about it when we get back."
Shen Haobai looked at Shen Ningyuan, and then he slowly calmed down.
Cui Jin walked up to the two siblings and said in a deep voice, "Yuan'er is right. If there's anything, let's talk about it when we get back."
As he spoke, he called Shen Ningyuan to get on the carriage.
Seeing this, Shen Haobai had to suppress the anger in his heart, jumped on his horse and headed towards the Shen family.
At this time, the servant hiding behind the gate of the Marquis' Mansion hurried back after making sure that all the Shen family members had left.
The servant came to the backyard and told Ji Zehai and Chen what was happening outside.
After hearing this, Ji Zehai asked in disbelief: "The Shen family just left like that without leaving a single soldier behind?"
The servant nodded quickly, "They've all left, not a single soldier remains."
Chen heaved a sigh of relief, "It seems that the Shen family is still wary of us."
Then he looked at Ji Zehai, "Master, I said it's okay, right? The Shen family doesn't dare to do anything to us!"
Ji Zehai did not respond to her.
He continued to stare at the servant and asked seriously, "Did the Shen family say anything when they left? Or did they do anything unusual?"
The servant shook his head, "Nothing was said, but General Shen Haobai looked very angry and wanted to rush in with a gun in hand, but was stopped by the young lady."
Upon hearing this, Ji Zehai's heart skipped a beat.
He pondered and said, "The Shen family must have noticed something, that's why there is such a big commotion!"
As he spoke, Ji Zehai glared at Chen fiercely and scolded her coldly, "Did I ever tell you that even if you want to deal with Shen Ningyuan, don't do it at Yunchuan's funeral. There are so many people around and it's bound to cause trouble... If you had listened to me, how could it have turned out like this!"
Chen felt very aggrieved by Ji Zehai's scolding and grumbled softly, "But Lord, when I proposed this plan, didn't you object? You even suggested to me that Huan'er poison Shen Ningyuan."
"You still dare to quibble!" Ji Zehai said in a more serious tone, "You made a mistake, so I can't teach you a lesson, right?"
"My Lord, I—"
Bang!
Seeing that Chen was about to speak, Ji Zehai slapped her in the face.
"How dare you talk back!" Ji Zehai cursed angrily, "My Ji family is a noble family after all, how could we marry a fool like you into our family?"
Chen choked, covered her beaten face, and looked at Ji Zehai in disbelief.
He asked, "My Lord, do you despise my humble origins?"
"If you dislike me, you shouldn't have married me in the first place." Chen cried, "Wow, I gave birth to a pair of children for the Marquis, but he still doesn't like me. I'd rather die!"
Seeing her crying, Ji Zehai felt even more upset.
After saying a few words to comfort her, he sent her to check on Ji Yunhuan.
Ji Yunhuan hasn't woken up since he fell into a coma.
After Chen left wiping her tears, Ji Zehai collapsed on the Zen chair and let out a long sigh.
Now that they have offended the Shen family, the Marquis’ Mansion is probably finished!
-
On the other side, Shen Ningyuan followed her parents and eldest brother back to the general's mansion.
The carriage shook all the way and finally stopped at the gate of the general's mansion.
"Mom, Yuan'er, we're home."
Shen Haobai's low voice came from outside the carriage.
Cui Jin patted Shen Ningyuan's hand, "Yuan'er, get out of the car, we're home."
