Shen Yuan smiled sweetly and turned around, "Hey, big brother, are you done with your work?"
Shen Zejing nodded, "What's the matter?"
"It's not a big deal. It's just that Yuanyuan saw the dress prepared for sister and was wondering if sister would like to attend the birthday party with Yuanyuan this year?"
Chen Zeshuo couldn't believe it. He walked up to the two of them and said, "What? She's going to participate too? I remember last year she not only didn't wear a dress, but she also didn't want to come out to share the cake. She looked like she wanted to eat Yuanyuan, and Yuanyuan was very sad for a long time because of this!"
Shen Yuan nodded, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes, "Yes, last year, my sister was like that, and I thought my sister didn't like me, so she deliberately ruined the birthday party..."
Shen Zejing frowned, Shen Mingzhu’s performance last year was indeed very bad.
She didn't wear the prepared dress, but just the most ordinary clothes. She looked gloomy throughout and didn't even smile.
It feels like someone owes her something.
But this year, Shen Zejing remembered what Shen Mingzhu had just said.
He raised his hand and stroked Shen Yuan's head, "Not this year. She said she has figured it out and will try to get along with us. After all, we are still a family."
It is said that Shen Mingzhu will get along well with the Shen family?
Shen Zeshuo was the first one who didn't believe it!
"Heh, maybe he said that on purpose, thinking that he would cause trouble when there are many people around!"
Shen Yuan also didn't believe that Shen Mingzhu would be willing to get along in a friendly manner, but she still had to be careful about her personality when she spoke.
"Third brother, you must have misunderstood. Sister is not that kind of person. Although, she has never liked Yuanyuan..."
Chen Yuan lowered her head to hide the loneliness in her eyes, but the look of wanting to cry but not wanting to make Chen Zeshuo feel extremely distressed.
He hugged Shen Yuan gently, “Yuan Yuan, don’t be sad, she’s just jealous that you are our biological sister, don’t be afraid, if she dares to bully you, we will all stand by you.”
Shen Yuan stretched out her hand and pretended to push Shen Zeshuo away, "It's normal for my sister to do that. Brothers, don't blame her. My sister just can't bear to give up the love she has received for so many years."
Her sensible appearance further aroused Shen Zeshuo's desire to protect her.
"Don't worry, if she dares to make trouble, I will be the first to kick her out. I will never let her ruin your happy moment!"
Shen Zejing saw the interaction between the two, but for some reason, he always felt that Shen Yuan was innocent and pitiful.
Now when I look at it again, I find something strange.
What Shen Mingzhu expressed to him was clearly that she wanted to get along well with everyone.
But Shen Zeshuo and Shen Yuan sang the same tune, and upon closer inspection, it turned out that Shen Mingzhu wanted to use the birthday party to cause trouble.
Which link went wrong and why did the situation develop in a completely different direction?
When Shen Yuan leaned in Shen Zeshuo's arms feeling aggrieved, her eyes unconsciously swept towards Shen Zejing and found that he seemed to be in a wrong state.
Normally at this time, shouldn't Shen Zejing hug himself distressedly?
Although it was Shen Zeshuo who was coaxing her now, she was still not satisfied.
What she wanted was for everyone to stand on her side and blame Shen Mingzhu.
Only by trampling Shen Mingzhu into the mud can she feel truly satisfied.
You have to ask why Shen Yuan has such great hostility towards Shen Mingzhu.
Shen Yuan himself couldn't quite figure it out.
At first, he just wanted to take away everything from Shen Mingzhu.
But now that things have developed to this point, she can only feel truly satisfied if Shen Mingzhu is made so humiliated that she can never stand up again.
Even if Shen Mingzhu did nothing but just stood in front of her, it was enough to make her feel itchy and angry.
There seemed to be a voice in her heart constantly emphasizing to her that her biggest enemy was Shen Mingzhu.
"Alright, Yuanyuan, go try on the dress and see if it fits. If it doesn't, have it sent for alterations. As for Shen Mingzhu's dress, leave it in her room on the third floor and wait for her to come back and try it on herself."
"What? Isn't her room on the second floor?"
Shen Zejing had turned around and was about to leave, but when he heard Shen Zeshuo's words, he turned around and looked at him.
"So you also think that the eldest daughter of the Shen family should stay in the small utility room on the second floor? The Shen family is so big, isn't there a suitable room for her?"
Shen Zeshuo just felt that Shen Zejing's question was inexplicable, "It's not me who thinks so, it's her who insisted on pestering you and volunteered to guard the utility room on the second floor."
Chen Zejing's eyes turned colder, "She is also your sister. You can favor Tan Yuanyuan, but don't ignore her. Otherwise, your promise to love her for the rest of her life will become a joke."
Shen Zeshuo didn’t dare to confront Shen Zejing directly, and could only mutter quietly, “When did I ever say something so stupid?”
Chen Zejing knew what Chen Zeshuo was thinking without having to hear it clearly. He did not continue to speak, but just sighed in his heart, had he forgotten everything?
After Shen Zejing left, Shen Zeshuo continued to coax Shen Yuan.
"Why is the eldest brother so strange? And the second brother slept for a long time today. Didn't he do so much research that his sleep disappeared? Is he sleeping in revenge now?"
The expression on Shen Yuan's face froze. Even Shen Zeshuo noticed something unusual?
No, we can't let him continue to doubt!
"Third brother, second brother must be too tired from replying to messages over there last night. The nature of his work often requires him to work day and night. Yuanyuan feels bad for him, but Yuanyuan can't help second brother."
"That's true, but I can't stay with you for long. It's been quite some time since I last came back. I may not be able to go home for a long time."
The agent has been urging him for a long time. If Shen Zeshuo hadn't insisted on spending the rest of Shen Yuan's birthday with him, he would have been forced by the agent to beg someone to give him a chance.
The public statement was that he went abroad for further studies, but in fact only Shen Zeshuo knew the real situation.
