"Nonsense! I wonder who dares to laugh at the daughter of my Shi family. Stop crying, ah!" He Liling said softly.
Shi Xiangyun was the jewel she gave birth to after she married into the Shi family. Unlike Shi Wenhao who could bring her glory, this well-behaved little daughter always accompanied her when she was lonely and uneasy.
What's more, everyone in the Shi family spoils their daughter extremely.
Shi Xiangyun thought so too. If anyone dared to laugh at her, she would tear their mouths apart.
However, today, he made a fool of himself in front of Shen Huaiyu, whom he had been thinking about so much.
I don’t know what the relationship between him and that woman is that makes him protect her like that!
Thinking of this, Shi Xiangyun wiped away her tears and looked at He Liling shyly: "Mom, what do you think of Shen Huaiyu?"
He Liling was such a perceptive person that she immediately noticed that something was wrong with her daughter.
"He is just a heartless and ungrateful villain!"
Hearing her mother's poor evaluation of her lover, Shi Xiangyun became anxious: "Mom! I just became Master Xiao's last disciple today. I am so outstanding. How can you say that about me!"
He Liling's face darkened a little. Now she understood that Xiangyun was attracted to Shen Huaiyu.
"Tell me, are you attracted to him?" He Liling stared at her daughter's face, not missing any changes in her expression.
Shi Xiangyun blushed when she heard her mother speak so frankly. Thinking of Shen Huaiyu's handsome face and upright figure today, she said softly:
"Mom, my daughter fell in love with him at first sight today. Look, he beat Xue Xinqi today, proving that he is a knowledgeable and capable person."
Seeing her daughter falling in love, He Liling was furious. She didn't like the grandson of Commander Xue, whom she had chosen, but instead liked a man who had been demoted.
"Just give up on this idea. I tell you it's impossible!" Why would she marry Chen Huaiyu instead of pursuing a promising future?
Seeing her mother's face that would not tolerate rejection, Shi Xiangyun refused to give in. "Mom, you are a snob. I know you look down on Shen Huaiyu's family background, but he has now become Mr. Xiao's last disciple. It is only a matter of time before he becomes successful!"
"No matter how successful he is, he can never be as successful as Xue Xinqi! You are still young and don't understand how much status can save people from taking detours. Will mom still harm you?"
He Liling said earnestly.
The current situation is still unclear. With Shen Huaiyu's identity, she might be investigated again at any time. How could she bear to let her daughter suffer that kind of hardship?
Xue Xinqi is the eldest grandson of the Xue family and is deeply loved by Commander Xue. As long as his daughter marries him, all the things in the Xue family will belong to them.
"Mom, but what can I do if I fell in love with him at first sight?" Helplessly, Shi Xiangyun had to start acting like a spoiled child. She knew her mother treated her best.
"Do you know why I say he is a heartless and ungrateful person?"
"Why? Mom, you are just prejudiced against others!"
Seeing her daughter's stubborn look, He Liling had no choice but to tell her daughter everything Shen Qingping had told her.
"You said, he even dared to cut off relations with his own great-aunt, refused to tell the doctor when his cousin's face was injured, and even framed his own uncle. With all these things, don't you understand what kind of person he is?"
What Shen Qingping said was naturally exaggerated and was spoken from her own perspective.
It's not that He Liling doesn't understand this truth, but this moment is just right to ruin Shen Huaiyu's good impression in Shi Xiangyun's heart.
After hearing these things, Shi Xiangyun was shocked and confused. She couldn't believe that Shen Huaiyu was such a person.
"Mom, who is Shen Qingping? Why did she come to tell you all this?"
Shi Xiangyun felt something was wrong, she only knew about Shen Huaiyu today, but according to her mother, she had known about it for a long time.
"She was a close friend of mother's and the eldest daughter of the Shen family. She is also Shen Huaiyu's biological aunt. Do you think her words are credible?" He Liling knew that her daughter must have been attracted to Shen Huaiyu's face.
However, it is not enough to just look at the face when marrying someone.
"Mom!" Shi Xiangyun suddenly threw herself into He Liling's arms. Today she suffered such a heavy blow.
First, she was embarrassed in front of so many people, and then she learned from her mother that the person she loved was such a person.
A flash of pride flashed across He Liling's face. She knew her daughter best and she knew how to make her give up.
"Okay, you didn't eat much today, I asked Aunt He to cook you a bowl of noodles, let's go out and eat!"
Looking at her daughter eating happily, He Liling's eyes were full of love.
At the beginning, Shen Qingping was the eldest daughter of the Shen family, and she was just the daughter of a maid.
But what about now?
The once unattainable pearl of the Shen family has become a piece of mud in the market, while she is the glorious daughter-in-law of the Shi family.
Shen Qingping was so arrogant at first that she insisted on being with a loser who only had a face.
So He Liling was not surprised at all that she had fallen to this point. Thinking of how Shen Qingping was talking to her and how servile she was, He Liling felt a sense of pride in her heart.
There is nothing more pleasurable in the world than to step under the feet of someone who was once high and mighty.
With Shen Qingping's previous experience in front of her, how could she let her daughter be with someone who had no foundation at all?
Although the identity of Mr. Xiao's last disciple is enviable, and it is known that this child will have a bright future, he is still just a scientific researcher after all.
How can we compare with a powerful family like the Xue family?
What's more, he actually spoke rudely to her, which showed that he didn't take her seriously at all. How could she feel at ease letting Xiangyun, her daughter who was spoiled by her and had no brains, marry such a man?
Shi Xiangyun, who was eating noodles in small bites, was also feeling very agitated.
If Shen Huaiyu is really like what his mother said, then he should give up. But thinking of his gentle smile to that annoying woman...
If only he could fall in love with me...
Just as the mother and daughter were immersed in their own thoughts, Aunt He's voice woke them up.
"Master Shi, you're back."
He Liling's husband, Shi Zhize, the second son of Shi's grandfather, walked into the house.
He Liling hurried forward and said, "Zhi Ze, you're back?"
Shi Zhize just glanced at her lightly, snorted softly, and then went to the room to change clothes.
The smile on He Liling's face froze and she retracted her outstretched hand.
She originally wanted to take the clothes from him, but he just left without even looking at her.
I never thought that the incident would turn out like this, with everyone giving me a cold shoulder.
What's the point of living like this? If I didn't have my good daughter Xiangyun by my side, I would have given up long ago.
Shi Zhize came out after changing his clothes, and Aunt He brought up the prepared dinner.
"Dad." Shi Xiangyun called softly.
Since she was a child, she was afraid of her father's majestic look, so she never dared to get close to him.
"Well, let's eat."
Because she had just eaten a bowl of noodles, Shi Xiangyun was not hungry at all. But looking at her father's serious expression, he hated wasting food the most.
So she had to eat in small bites.
He Liling also had something on her mind. There was news that a doctor could cure Hao'er. Should she tell him about it?
