After hearing Cui Mingzhu's words, Shen Haobai nodded with relief.
"Yes, you must rest well and heal your injuries as soon as possible."
Cui Mingzhu’s face froze, and she was about to respond to Shen Haobai’s words.
But then he continued, "Cousin, please don't do this kind of stupid thing again. Hands are a girl's second face. It would be so ugly if they had scars!"
Seeing Shen Haobai speaking earnestly and as if he was thinking about her, Cui Mingzhu's face became even uglier.
After a moment of stiffness, he secretly clenched his teeth and said, "Mingzhu, I'll remember this. I will never make this mistake again."
The Shen family has always been protective of their shortcomings. If Shen Haobai knew that it was because he caused trouble for Shen Ningyuan that she hit his hand with the door, his attitude would not be the same as it is now.
Thinking of this, Cui Mingzhu closed her mouth silently, not daring to say another word.
When Shen Ningyuan and Song Yaner saw her like this, they smiled at each other tacitly.
After a while, Shen Ningyuan looked at the sky outside and asked in confusion: "It's getting late, why haven't Dad and Second Brother come back yet?"
Cui Jin said truthfully, "The rumors out there are too serious. Your father and your second brother took people out to investigate where the rumors came from after you went shopping. Judging by the time now, they should be back soon, right?"
"Is Yuan'er back?"
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
As soon as Cui Jin finished speaking, Shen Potian’s calm and powerful voice came from outside the front hall.
Then, the tall and burly Shen Potian and the slender Shen Haoyue strode in through the patio of the front hall.
When they entered the room, both of them looked very ugly.
After entering the door, Shen Potian’s attention was attracted by Cui Mingzhu’s injured hand.
"Mingzhu's hand...what's going on?"
Cui Mingzhu quickly explained: "Uncle, it was Mingzhu who was careless and got hit by the door."
"Is it smashed so badly?" Shen Potian's eyes flashed with surprise, but soon returned to normal.
He reminded her in a deep voice, "Be careful in the future. If a girl gets a scar on her hand, it will affect her future life."
Cui Mingzhu's face froze again.
But she still forced a smile and said stiffly: "Mingzhu thanks uncle for his concern. Mingzhu will definitely pay more attention."
On the other hand, Shen Haoyue has been focusing on Shen Ningyuan since he came in, and he walks towards her in two steps at a time.
"Yuan'er, you didn't get hurt when you went out today, did you?" Shen Haoyue came to Shen Ningyuan and asked nervously.
The rumors outside were so serious that wherever you went, people were talking about the Shen family and Shen Ningyuan.
He had to worry, fearing that the people who believed the rumors would hurt Shen Ningyuan.
Seeing the worried look on his second brother's face, Shen Ningyuan shook his head, "Second brother, I'm fine, my sister-in-law and I are fine."
As he spoke, Shen Ningyuan looked at Song Yaner.
The latter nodded quickly, "Don't worry, uncle, nothing is wrong with me and Yuan'er."
"That's good." Shen Haoyue breathed a sigh of relief.
"Second brother, did you and dad find out anything during this trip?" Shen Ningyuan asked.
Shen Haoyue's expression immediately became even uglier, "Those rumors were spread by the Ji family!"
After hearing this, Shen Ningyuan was not surprised.
Shen Haoyue clenched his fists, his fair face flushed slightly with anger.
"We shouldn't let the Ji family go so easily!" Shen Haoyue shouted through gritted teeth.
Shen Haobai was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, and he roared in a deep voice: "What on earth do the Ji family want to do? Is it good for them to force my sister like this?"
Shen Ningyuan's heart sank.
The eldest brother has no idea what the Ji family wants.
What they want is their own lives and everything of the Shen family.
Compared to the anger of the two, Shen Potian was much calmer.
He turned his gaze to Shen Ningyuan and asked with concern: "Yuan'er, I heard from the housekeeper that you made your mother-in-law and sister-in-law very angry at Yushang Pavilion today?"
Shen Ningyuan paused, and seeing that her father's face was slightly gloomy, she thought he was going to scold her.
But he still said truthfully: "There are indeed some frictions."
The next second, Shen Potian asked anxiously: “You didn’t suffer any loss, did you?”
Shen Ningyuan: “?”
She thought that Shen Potian would teach her a lesson.
Unexpectedly, the first thing he cared about was himself.
"Don't worry, Daddy. I didn't suffer any loss." Then he looked at Song Yan'er, "Sister-in-law is with me. Chen and Ji Yunhuan don't dare to do anything to me."
Hearing this, Shen Potian glanced at Song Yaner approvingly and said, “Your sister-in-law has always been protective of her shortcomings. With her around, outsiders can’t do anything to you.”
Afterwards, Shen Potian’s face darkened slightly, and he slowly analyzed: ““However, things have come to this point today, the Ji family will definitely not let it go, we have to think about how to properly resolve this matter.”
Cui Jin snorted coldly, "However they want to make trouble is their business. We haven't settled the score with their family for Ji Yunhuan poisoning Yuan'er yet!"
Shen Potian was helpless, “Madam, this is not the way to calculate the accounts. The Ji family is the weaker party. Outsiders don’t know the truth and will definitely stand on their side. The current situation… is not very friendly to the Shen family.”
"Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch Yuan'er being forced back to the Ji family and let those black-hearted people in the Ji family continue to bully Yuan'er?" Cui Jin shook her head firmly, "I don't agree!"
Cui Jin held Shen Ningyuan's hand tightly, her eyes red, "As long as I'm here, I will never let Yuan'er return to the Ji family!"
A year ago, she did not agree with Shen Ningyuan marrying into the Ji family.
