Although Shen Zhiyi is her daughter, this father has no authority in front of Shen Zhiyi because Shen Zhiyi has the doting old master Shen behind her, and Shen Zhiyi can be said to be lawless in the Shen family.
"snort!"
"If you can't even manage one daughter, how will you manage the family in the future?"
"No, Dad, how can you blame me for this? Every time I try to discipline her, you and Mom scold me. Isn't that all the fault of..."
"Now I have no authority as a father at all. If I say one thing, she'll say ten things back. What can I do?"
Although Shen Zhiyi is a girl, the Shen family does not favor boys over girls, and in fact, they are somewhat biased towards girls because Shen Zhiyi is the only woman in the Shen family and is showered with love and affection.
This is why Shen Huai'an, as the father, is the least popular person in the Shen family. Whenever he dares to reprimand Shen Zhiyi, the old master Shen will scold him harshly, regardless of whether he is right or wrong.
Moreover, Shen Zhiyi was exceptionally intelligent from a young age and was very likable. Otherwise, the very strict Old Master Shen would not have broken all the rules of the Shen family for Shen Zhiyi.
Seeing that Shen Zhiyi was almost thirty years old, yet still had no intention of getting married, and had never even been in a relationship, her doting grandfather couldn't help but feel a little anxious for her.
So the things that have happened recently were all done at the behest of Old Master Shen, Shen Huai'an. Otherwise, who would dare to marry off his precious granddaughter so casually?
Old Master Shen slowly picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said with half-closed eyes, "So what do we do? Is it my fault?"
"Blame...blame me, blame me, okay?" Shen Huai'an said sarcastically. If he dared to say that he blamed his own father, he believed that his father would slap him hard without any mercy.
Then Shen Huai'an said with a sense of frustration, "Anyway, that unfilial daughter won't listen to me, and there's nothing I can do about it. Otherwise, if you step in, that unfilial daughter will definitely listen to you."
"You keep calling me an unfilial daughter. If you say another word, I'll slap you!" Old Master Shen squinted, his face somewhat unfriendly.
"This..." Shen Huai'an was about to burst with frustration. He couldn't control the younger ones, and he didn't dare to speak up for the older ones. He felt like he was in a very difficult situation.
"Dad, look at you, this is so pointless. You're suggesting I set that brat up on a blind date, but I can't persuade her. Who can she listen to besides you and Mom?" Shen Huai'an said helplessly.
"When did I give any signal? How come I didn't know? Did I give you any signal?" Old Master Shen was unwilling to get involved in this mess. If he angered his precious granddaughter, he would suffer the consequences.
"Fine, fine, fine..." Shen Huai'an felt like he wanted to die. So now he was caught in the middle, neither side was happy to accept it.
In fact, the Shen family was aware of Shen Zhiyi's illness. However, they had consulted many doctors who had helped her with treatment, and the doctors' opinions were largely consistent: in the end, it was up to her to overcome her mental illness.
The reason why Grandpa Shen instructed Shen Huai'an to let Shen Zhiyi go on a blind date was simply to help Shen Zhiyi take the first step, but this girl was incredibly stubborn.
At this moment, Shen Huai'an was also seething with hatred, but he dared not speak out, otherwise the old man would really slap him hard across the face. He had been beaten by the old man many times before.
