"Mingzhu is the eldest daughter of our Shen family. When did she become an outsider?"
Chen Zeshuo snorted coldly, "A person who is not related to me by blood has occupied the life that belongs to Yuanyuan. It's already good enough that I didn't kick her out. Do you still expect me to treat her as my own family?"
Shen Mingzhu heard such a wonderful speech right after she came down. She clapped her hands and expressed her approval, "Yes, I am so shameless to stay here. I am so bad!"
"Okay, sit down and eat."
Shen Zeshuo was about to open his mouth to mock Shen Mingzhu, but Shen Zejing glared at him and he curled his lips.
If you don't want to scold her, then don't scold her. He has plenty of ways to squeeze Shen Mingzhu.
This includes but is not limited to turning away when seeing Shen Mingzhu preparing to pick up some food, and deliberately placing food that Shen Mingzhu hates in front of her.
Then he considerately picked up some food for Chen Yuan.
"Yuanyuan, try this. This is your favorite."
Chen Yuan secretly watched this scene with joy. Even if the eldest brother did not favor her, there was still the third brother.
She just didn't believe that Shen Mingzhu wasn't angry.
You know, when she first returned to the Shen family, Shen Mingzhu had the best relationship with the third brother.
But later, because of his own frame-up, Shen Zeshuo hated Shen Mingzhu very much.
This caused Shen Mingzhu to be sad for a long time. Now seeing Shen Zeshuo defending her like this, Shen Mingzhu must be furious, right?
Thinking of this, the frustration she had felt in the past few days was swept away, and she was happy to cooperate with Shen Zeshuo to act like a loving brother and sister.
Unfortunately, Shen Mingzhu didn't even look at the two people who were performing hard. She finished her meal in silence and went upstairs.
Shen Zejing really couldn't stand it anymore, "Shen Zeshuo, where is your upbringing? Bullying Mingzhu with such a despicable method, don't you know she will be sad?"
Chen Zeshuo looked completely indifferent, "So what? Doesn't she deserve it? Isn't it enough that she has enjoyed our love for so many years? She wants more?"
Shen Zejing only felt the veins on his forehead throbbing.
He explained in a deep voice, "The lives that were exchanged were not caused by Shen Mingzhu, and she didn't have the ability to do it. We shouldn't vent our anger on her."
Unfortunately, Shen Zejing's explanation not only failed to move Shen Zeshuo, but instead ignited his emotions like firecrackers.
"She really doesn't have the ability to do such a thing, but is she really enjoying our favor and the convenience brought by her status as the eldest daughter of the Shen family?"
"What right does she have to cry out for injustice? Everything she endured today was to make up for the life that Yuanyuan had lost."
"If it weren't for us, Shen Mingzhu might still be eating leftovers in some corner, living a life of poverty and humiliation."
"She should be grateful for everything the Shen family has done for her, instead of taking advantage of our favor to bully Yuanyuan!"
"Yuanyuan is our lost treasure, how could you bear to let her be bullied?"
Chen Yuan lowered her head and looked at the unusually bright red color on her little finger. She couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
The strange thing is that there is a little red on all five fingers of her left hand.
However, compared to the other fingers, the red color of the middle finger is very light.
"But no matter what, Shen Mingzhu is still our sister, and we have truly loved her. I understand that you want to compensate Shen Yuan, but don't bully Shen Mingzhu too much. Have you forgotten that when she had a fever as a child, you stayed by her side all night and didn't dare to sleep?"
Shen Zeshuo frowned, "How could I be so stupid? I'm only a few years older than her? I stayed up all night for her. Am I crazy?"
Shen Zejing just felt very strange. He only remembered some childhood memories of Shen Mingzhu in the past few days.
It seemed as if the past had always been suppressed by something.
Forget it, he couldn’t control what Shen Zeshuo said or did, so it would be better for him to go up and see how Shen Mingzhu was doing.
Shen Mingzhu was in the room reading the notes that Wen Shuangnian had sorted out for her.
Although she always wants to sleep in class, it doesn't mean she wants to fail the course.
After all, she had been away from the school environment for a long time in her previous life, and now she was caught off guard and had to go to school.
There are still many habits that have not been adjusted.
For example, it is really difficult for her to concentrate and sit in the classroom and listen to the lectures completely.
Fortunately, Wen Shuangnian has the habit of taking notes. After reading her notes, Shen Mingzhu couldn't help but sigh.
Wen Shuangnian is indeed a top student. Her method of organizing notes is very unique, but it is surprisingly suitable for Shen Mingzhu's study habits.
As she was watching with great interest, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Shen Mingzhu said without even raising her head.
Shen Zejing opened the door and walked in, "Are you free? I want to talk to you."
Shen Mingzhu closed the notes in her hand and asked Shen Zejing to sit down.
"I have neglected you during this period because of Shen Yuan's matter. I want to apologize to you. I was biased towards Shen Yuan without understanding the situation clearly."
Shen Mingzhu raised her eyebrows, "You also know that you are biased? Is this the sun rising from the west?"
"Maybe sometimes I was too arbitrary and wronged you. Later, I will make a decision after finding out the whole story."
"Um."
At the same time, Shen Yuan went into the bathroom on the pretext of going to the toilet, and after confirming that the door was locked, she looked at the third finger of her left hand.
The red color above has faded and is about to disappear.
Shen Yuan thought to herself that this was not good. She took out a needle and pierced the finger of her right hand, then dripped blood onto the third finger of her left hand.
Then she chanted an ancient and obscure secret language.
Soon, the drop of blood was absorbed, and the red color on the finger finally recovered a little. Although it was still lighter than the other fingers, it was not so faded that it disappeared.
After Shen Yuan did all this, his face turned much paler.
She took a deep breath and said, "I really underestimated Shen Mingzhu. No, I can't just sit there and wait for death."
Shen Zejing, who was talking to Shen Mingzhu just fine, suddenly felt a little dazed.
He closed his eyes tightly and opened them again, and then his mouth seemed to speak uncontrollably.
"In fact, Yuanyuan just wanted our love too much. Although it was wrong for her to frame you, I hope you can be more tolerant of her."
In just a moment, there was a huge contrast between Shen Zejing's words before and after.
Shen Mingzhu also had a lot of questions in her mind.
"So? Your apology just now was just to trick me into listening to the bullshit you're going to say next?"
Shen Zejing continued, “Third brother didn’t mean it, don’t take it to heart.”
"So you actually agree with him insulting me like this?"
"He was just speaking up for Yuanyuan. You can pretend you didn't hear it."
Shen Mingzhu's face was full of disbelief. "So you want me to swallow my anger?"
"Is Shen Zejing's brain okay? Or am I some kind of cheap person? Can't I talk back when I'm scolded?"
"I'm not asking you to endure it, I'm just asking you to ignore him."
Shen Mingzhu stood up and ordered him to leave. "Please go out. I don't want to hear you talk."
Shen Zeshuo hadn't seen Shen Yuan come back for a long time, and thought she came up to look for Shen Zejing, but he saw Shen Zejing being pushed out of the room by Shen Mingzhu.
Shen Zeshuo went up to educate Shen Mingzhu, "This is the Shen family, what qualifications do you have to kick my brother out?"
