After seeing what it was, Shen Shuhe quickly dodged.
The celadon cup hit the door frame behind him and then shattered to the ground.
Some tiny fragments exploded and scratched the back of Shen Shuhe's hand.
Suddenly a drop of blood gushed out.
Shen Shuhe looked down, frowned, and then looked up again, only to see He Wanrong leaning on a cane and staring at her solemnly on the sofa in front of her.
The anger in his eyes was clearly visible.
The wrinkles between his eyebrows deepened, and Shen Shuhe pursed his lips, his expression equally solemn.
The last time the old lady treated her like this was because she saw a photo of her and Qi Zijin and suspected that she was cheating on her.
But this time, the old lady's attitude was worse than last time.
There was hardly any warmth on her face, and she looked at her gloomily without saying a word.
...
...
Shen Shuhe's heart sank. As she walked towards the sofa, she secretly wondered what Pei Leyao or Pei Jingmo had said to the old lady...
"Grandma, I'm here." Shen Shuhe walked to the sofa and said in a light voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold snort mixed with sarcasm reached his ears.
Shen Shuhe tightened his fingertips that were hanging at his side.
She controlled her depressed emotions and spoke again in a gentle voice: "Grandma, you have to tell me what you are not satisfied with me, then I can explain it to you."
"If you don't say anything, I'll leave first..."
"Hehe, you are worthy of being with other men. You speak with confidence!" He Wanrong finally spoke, but her words made people feel uncomfortable.
The tone was cold and mocking, and Shen Shuhe felt a lump in his throat, but he knew why the old lady was angry.
She was about to open her mouth to explain, but the old lady spoke first: "I dare not be dissatisfied with you. What if you are unhappy someday and the rich people on your list target an old bone like me?"
"Grandma..." Shen Shuhe frowned, "Please explain it more clearly, there is no need to be like this..."
"What? Are you dissatisfied with me because I said a few words to you? Do you want to find someone to bully me too?" He Wanrong's face darkened and she tapped with her cane.
"Grandma, I don't!"
After being accused and ridiculed without reason again and again, Shen Shuhe's patience ran out, and he directly interrupted the old lady.
"Grandma, even though you didn't tell me why you asked me to come here today, I can probably guess what it is."
Chen Shuhe looked at He Wanrong calmly, and quietly opened his mouth in her eyes filled with anger: "Grandma, did anyone tell you that I cheated on Pei Jingmo and had a child?"
"Oh, you're so calm, are you going to give up pretending even if you're exposed?" He Wanrong said sarcastically.
After saying that, he looked her up and down, and finally fixed his gaze on her calm face and glanced at her with disgust.
The Pei family was a wealthy and powerful family, and they were also well-known in Nanlin, but this woman had disturbed their peace and caused such a scandal!
Besides, how has the Pei family done anything wrong to her? They provided her with good food and drink, but she still cheated on Jing Mo and Xiao Yu!
Thinking of this, He Wanrong's breathing became heavier, and she panted and glanced at Shen Shuhe angrily.
Shen Shuhe pulled the corner of his lips slightly, ignoring He Wanrong's gaze, and continued to look at her calmly.
But the emotion in his eyes faded a lot, and even a hint of coldness crept up on his brows.
"Grandma, you are wrong. I am so calm not because I have been exposed and have nothing to say, but because..."
"I didn't do it in the first place." Shen Shuhe said word by word: "For things I haven't done, I feel that I have nothing to feel guilty about!"
"Are you kidding me?" He Wanrong slammed the table heavily, but coughed twice because she was too excited.
Seeing this, Shen Shuhe subconsciously stretched out his hand, but lowered it silently after a few seconds.
She stood there, watching Peiyi massaging the old lady's back and bringing her water, "Old lady, you can't be so excited. You have to take care of your health."
After He Wanrong's condition eased, Shen Shuhe continued what he had not finished saying.
"Grandma, no matter what others have told you, I still say the same thing. If you have evidence, please come to me with it, instead of sentencing me with just a few words."
"I will never admit to something I didn't do, and no one can throw dirty water on me at will!"
After finishing speaking, Shen Shuhe nodded slightly towards the old lady and made a gesture to turn around.
But he was stopped by the old lady.
"Wait a minute!"
Shen Shuhe stopped but did not look back. She was waiting for the old lady to say the next word.
He Wanrong looked at the woman's back, slender but stubborn. She had not bent even a bit since she came in, even though she was almost hit.
Shen Shuhe seemed to have not changed, he was generous and polite, still the same as she remembered.
Ke Leyao cried to her with such confidence that Chen Shuhe went in and out with the father and daughter. How could this be possible if she wasn't having an affair with this wild man outside?
but……
Shen Shuhe's words echoed in her mind, as if overlapping with the last time, when she righteously explained that she had not betrayed the Pei family and Jing Mo.
A trace of struggle flashed across He Wanrong's face as she thought of Xiaoyu who was becoming increasingly thinner.
She was so angry when she heard Le Yao's words last night that she forgot to investigate. Now that she said she didn't cheat, it would be better to keep her calm first and then hold her accountable after she has investigated!
He Wanrong thought it was feasible, so she slowly stood up with Peiyi's support, "Shuhe, since you said you haven't done anything to let Jingmo down, I will believe you for the time being."
Hearing this, Shen Shuhe turned around.
"But what Le Yao said about you being intimate with another man is not groundless. You must have really done that, which caused her to misunderstand."
Shen Shuhe frowned: "I didn't..."
When did she become intimate with a man?
"Okay, since I said I trust you for now, there's no need to say more until I find out the truth about this matter."
Shen Shuhe: “…”
She felt like cotton was stuck in her throat, unable to move up or down.
"But..." He Wanrong changed the subject, "You haven't seen Jing Mo Xiaoyu for a long time recently. How can you have feelings for him if you don't meet?"
He Wanrong walked forward, grabbed Shen Shuhe's wrist, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Last time I told you and Jing Mo to prepare for a second child, but you didn't take it seriously. I have already said that Jing Mo will definitely forget that woman after having a child!"
"Good boy, from today on, you will move back to the mansion and cultivate your relationship with the father and son. As for the second child, grandma won't force you, but you have to pay attention to it. Let's prepare for pregnancy first, okay?"
Shen Shuhe: “…”
She was overwhelmed and didn't know why the old lady brought up the second child again.
Shen Shuhe was completely against this in his heart.
She couldn't do either of these two things for the old lady. Instead of giving her another chance to "arrange" herself, it would be better to make things clear today.
Shen Shuhe grabbed the old lady's wrist, let go, and then in her stunned eyes, he said calmly: "Grandma, I can tell you clearly today that I will not use my child to tie my other half."
"So regarding the second child, I'm sorry I can't satisfy you."
He Wanrong looked at her in disbelief...
