Shen Ningyuan noticed Shen Haoyue's gaze and subconsciously hid his right hand in his sleeve.
Seeing this, Shen Haoyue looked at Shen Ningyuan deeply, and then moved his eyes away calmly.
Shen Potian walked up to the mother and daughter and helped them up.
Holding Shen Ningyuan's shoulders, Shen Potian's eyes were complicated.
The father and daughter looked at each other, neither of them speaking for a long time.
"Yuan'er, you've been wronged!"
"Dad, I killed someone."
Finally, they both spoke at the same time.
Chen Potian's heart ached, and his eyes revealed the same heartache as Cui Jin's.
But in the end, he smiled with relief and patted Shen Ningyuan's shoulder heavily.
“As expected of me, Shen Potian’s daughter, you look like your father!”
Shen Potian smiled heartily, “It doesn’t matter, then wait for the villain, just kill him.”
"Yuan'er, just remember, a woman's hands can thread a needle, or they can wield a spear and ride a horse across the sky! You are not defined by anyone, including your parents!"
As he said that, Shen Potian pooh-poohed, “So what if I offended the Queen? At worst, Daddy will go to the palace tomorrow and sleep with the Emperor for another night!”
"Don't be afraid, Dad is here, the sky won't fall!"
"Even if the sky really falls, Daddy can lift your big brother and second brother up to support them and make sure the sky doesn't fall on your head."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue: "..."
The two looked at Shen Potian dimly, their eyes filled with resentment.
Seeing this, Shen Potian glared at the two of them unhappily, “Look, look, what are you looking at, your father and mother have already slept with you, what’s wrong with lifting you up to support the sky?”
Shen Potian snorted heavily and coldly, “Raising a son for a thousand days, using him in one moment, no matter how dissatisfied you are, you have to endure it for me.”
After that, the two brothers were speechless again.
"Okay, it's cold outside, we should go back early. Yuan'er has been busy in the palace all day and needs a good rest."
Cui Jin gave a reminder and asked everyone to leave.
On the way back, Cui Jin sat in the carriage with Shen Ningyuan.
Holding Shen Ningyuan's cold little hand, Cui Jin asked worriedly: "Yuan'er, what are your plans for the future? If you want to divorce, your parents can also fight for you."
"Mother, the marriage between Ji Yunchuan and me was personally granted by His Majesty. Ji Yunchuan has not committed any major offense. Even if the Ji family goes too far, Yuan'er cannot divorce." Shen Ningyuan reminded in a light tone.
Cui Jin's expression froze.
She had forgotten about this matter.
On that day, His Majesty showed mercy and granted the marriage to the two newlyweds.
It was originally a great gift from heaven, but it became the basis for the Ji family to waste Shen Ningyuan at will.
Thinking of this, Cui Jin felt so angry that his teeth were itching.
He clenched his hand into a fist and punched the car.
She shouted angrily, "Do you want me to just sit there and watch the Ji family do whatever they want to you?"
Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan pulled Cui Jin's hand back and said softly, "Mother, I have my own plans."
Seeing Shen Ningyuan's expression, Cui Jin immediately guessed what she wanted to do, "What are you planning? Going back to the Ji family? That's a den of wolves! Mother won't let you go back!"
"Mother, it's not up to me." Shen Ningyuan analyzed truthfully: "Even if I delay and don't go back, His Majesty will take action."
"If I'm guessing correctly, the memorials impeaching the General's Office are piling up on your Majesty's desk."
"But Yuan'er..."
Cui Jin knew that what Shen Ningyuan said was the truth.
But when I opened my mouth, I didn't know what to say.
"Mom, don't worry. How can you be so sure that I'll be bullied by them when I return to the Ji family?" Shen Ningyuan smiled mischievously. "Is it possible that when I return this time, I'll cause unrest in the Ji family?"
Seeing Shen Ningyuan's confident expression, Cui Jin suppressed his worries and patted Shen Ningyuan's hand.
"Okay, no matter what, your safety comes first."
"If anything changes, you must tell your parents. They will intervene on your behalf."
"Okay, daughter, I understand."
"When do you want to go back?" Cui Jin asked again.
Shen Ningyuan replied: "Tomorrow, the Ji family will take me back."
"Are we going to let them take you away so easily?" Cui Jin was unwilling.
"Of course not." Chen Ningyuan sneered, "Tomorrow, I will let the Ji family know that the one they took back wasn't Chen Ningyuan, who they could ravage and manipulate, but... their ancestor."
Seeing that Chen Ningyuan looked determined, Cui Jin stopped trying to persuade her, but the uneasiness in her heart remained.
About an incense stick of time later, the carriage stopped in front of the general's mansion.
After Cui Jin and Shen Ningyuan got off the carriage, a crying voice came from the gate.
"Woo woo woo, Miss, you are finally back. I was almost worried to death!"
As soon as Shen Ningyuan stood firm, Lu Ying ran towards her crying.
Seeing Lu Ying's red eyes, Shen Ningyuan knew that she had been crying for a long time.
So he patted Luying's shoulder and said, "Don't cry for now. If you have anything to say, let's talk inside."
Although it was already dark, there were still many people gathered outside the general's mansion.
Their every move will still be watched by people with ulterior motives.
Luying nodded obediently and followed Shen Ningyuan into the general's mansion.
As soon as they entered the hall and everyone took their seats, their worried eyes fell on Shen Ningyuan.
No one spoke and it was quiet all around.
After a while, Shen Potian’s voice broke the silence.
"Yuan'er, as far as my parents know, the Ji family will come to pick you up tomorrow. What are your plans?"
"If they want me to go back, I will go back." Shen Ningyuan said indifferently, "It's not a big deal for my daughter to stay in the Shen family. Those people in the Ji family will be dealt with sooner or later."
