Chapter 245 I am afraid of eating a bear's heart and a leopard
"I'm sure you won't forget what my little sister said. You and Su Haitang and Xiao Yelin have such a deep bond..."
"Before it's completely severed, who can guarantee that the deviated plot line won't be slowly pulled back?"
"That system exists to pull back the plot line, and with a character like yours and a fate like yours, how can we be careless?"
"Therefore, the bond between you and Prince Jin must be completely severed. The most direct way to sever the bond is for you to marry someone else."
"Compared to others, the emperor is obviously more suitable. If there is anyone in Yun Country who can truly protect you, it is only the emperor."
"As long as the emperor is alive, Prince Jin will never be able to make any waves..."
Before he could finish his words, his mouth was covered tightly and Shen Qingyi looked at him in panic.
"What are you talking about? Is it okay to say something like that?"
How can the emperor appear with the word "death"?
He was not afraid that someone would hear him and report him, and then punish him for cursing the emperor.
"I haven't finished speaking yet, what's the rush?"
Chen Yaoxing pulled her hand away and spoke indifferently.
Shen Qingyi: "..."
How could this guy be so nonchalant after saying something like that?
He is so audacious, must he be extremely brave?
"So Qingyi, can you tell me why you don't like the emperor? What kind of man do you like?"
Shen Qingyi: "..."
She only had fear and respect for the emperor, how could she dare to have any other feelings?
But I have never really thought about what kind of man I like.
She always felt that she liked Prince Jin, but after knowing that he was destined to fall in love with Su Haitang, she didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she started comparing him with Master Xie in various ways.
Then, she felt more and more that his treatment of her was not as good as that of Master Xie towards Huo'er in every way.
Maybe he really didn't like her that much.
The princess had a saying that she liked very much, 'She only likes people who like her'. Prince Jin didn't like her very much, so she didn't want to like him anymore.
The emotions I used to feel whenever I saw him or thought of him gradually faded away and became calm.
"I think you don't like the emperor because you've never gotten along with him."
"So, you can try to get along with the emperor for a while. If you still don't like him, given his pride, he certainly won't force you..."
No way.
When patience runs out, it's time to resort to tactics.
How could a person who holds a high position and has the power to make things happen allow anyone or anything in this world that he cannot have?
"Forget it, I've said enough. Think about it carefully by yourself. I'm leaving now."
After he finished speaking, Chen Yaoxing raised his leg and walked towards the door. Hua Wu happened to come in hurriedly from outside and almost bumped into him head-on.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough, stopped and stood firm, folded her hands, knelt down and saluted him.
"Hello, Second Young Master."
"So anxious, but is there something wrong?"
Shen Yaoxing asked with a frown.
"Replying to the Second Young Master, Sister Yuluo from Madam's courtyard came to tell me that the little girl from Nanzhou Prefecture has been brought here, and Madam asked the young lady to prepare a welcoming gift."
The little girl from Nanzhou Prefecture?
It should be the biological daughter of my aunt who was switched in my younger sister's mind.
This was not difficult to guess, and the brother and sister guessed it easily.
"Okay, got it. I'll be right there."
Shen Qingyi replied to Hua Wu, then turned to look at Chen Yaoxing and said, "Mother should have sent someone to call you. Do you want to go with us?"
"Go, it's a good opportunity to go see my little sister. I haven't seen her yet today."
Shen Yaoxing responded lazily, Shen Qingyi nodded, and then looked him up and down.
"Are you going just like that? You can't go empty-handed when you meet our little cousin for the first time, right?"
"I'll make it up to you later. If that doesn't work, give me some rare gadgets you have."
It came too suddenly and he was completely unprepared. What could he do?
"Okay, wait for me. I'll look for a suitable gift."
East Garden.
After meeting, Mrs. Shen was shocked by the little one's miserable condition and felt pity for him.
He was clearly over seven years old, but he was short, thin, and emaciated. Even his hair was dry as grass, and he looked like someone who had been malnourished for a long time. He looked about the size of a three-year-old child.
The old wounds on the small body had not yet healed and new wounds had appeared. Anyone who took a look at it would know that this was the result of years of abuse and torture.
She couldn't imagine why someone could be so cruel as to torture a child of that age into such a miserable state.
This businessman has such a vicious heart.
Chen Wan was stunned by the situation. She sat on the couch, holding the cloth tiger in her hand, and looked at the scene in confusion.
【this……】
What's going on?
【How did this little girl appear in our house? 】
[Shouldn't she be in Nanzhou Prefecture? ]
The last time Shen Chuchu discussed something with Shen Yuanhong, Shen Wan was taken outside by Shen Yuanhong, who sent Shen Yuanhao and the two brothers to the hospital.
Therefore, she did not know that Shen Chuchu made up a story and fabricated the thoughts she heard from her into a dream, and told it to Shen Yuanhong, asking Shen Yuanhong to go to Nanzhou Prefecture to investigate the merchants.
Naturally, she didn't know that Shen Yuanhong and others had already known the true identities of Zhenzhen and Shang Rong. When she saw the switched Zhenzhen appear in front of her, she was shocked.
[Dad, Mom, you must be hiding something serious from me, right?]
Listening to her inner thoughts, Madam Shen and Shen Yuanhong couldn't help but feel a little guilty, but neither of them showed it and just pretended not to hear it.
"Child, from now on I will be your mother. From now on, no one will bully you anymore."
After a while, Madam Shen calmed down, walked up to the little girl, and gently took her hand.
As early as when Shen Yuanhong decided to send someone to Nanzhou Prefecture to bring the child back, the couple had already agreed that they would raise the child by their side and treat him as their own.
Anyway, the Shen family is wealthy and powerful, so they don’t care about having another poor child.
As for Shen Chuchu, although she is the biological mother of the child, she has been derelict in her duty for so many years, and Shen Yuanhong does not intend to ask for her opinion.
If she couldn't bear to leave her child, she could stay in the Shen family in the future, and forget about anything else.
The woman in front of her was as gentle as water, exuding a kindness she had never seen before. Zhenzhen pursed her lips and let her hold her hand without saying a word.
[With one more sister, my ranking is going to drop again.]
This poor kid never got to enjoy the blessings of a young lady, but instead suffered a lot of misfortunes. I don’t know what sins he committed to be reborn as a merchant...
[Now, being raised by my parents is a blessing after all the hardships they've endured. My parents are kind and generous, and they wouldn't mistreat a child like that.]
Chen Wan blinked her dark eyes, full of confusion.
On the side, Lu Li secretly looked at her, and the more he looked, the more he liked her. The last time he saw this little lady, he couldn't help but want to hug her.
While the Shen couple's attention was on the new kid, and the kid's attention was all on Mrs. Shen, Lu Li moved his feet and quietly approached Shen Wan.
Afraid of scaring the little lady, he first reached out and gently hooked the cute little hand and touched it.
Chen Wan: [???]
When their eyes met, Lu Li inexplicably felt that there was a glimmer of wisdom in those beautiful black eyes.
