Wen Ruyu seemed to finally notice that everyone's eyes were on him. His eyes, as bright as stars, were soft, but his tone was quite embarrassed, "That... Grandma... Grandpa Shen really came to play chess with me."
This sentence is better spoken than spoken.
Now Mr. Shen finally understood that he had offended Wen Ruyu. He had watched this bastard grow up, and just... because he had given him a hard time, he actually held such a grudge. He was just as treacherous as that old bastard in his family.
As expected, the old lady just sneered three times after hearing Wen Ruyu's explanation. "No matter how you quibble," she turned and squinted at the three people standing silently by the side. "I'm putting this on the line today. No matter whether that girl has special abilities or what her identity is, I will protect her. If any of you dare to touch her, get out of the Shen family tomorrow!"
These words were as heavy as a bell, striking everyone's heart.
When Wen Ruyu heard this, he restrained his previous leisurely expression, slowly put down the teacup in his hand, and after a long time he looked up at the old lady who said she was tired and wanted to rest.
An unknown smile flashed across the corner of his mouth. He quickly stood up, stretched out his slender hand, and said softly, "Grandma, slow down!"
Wen Ruyu didn't care how the people behind him would react after they left. Instead, he stared intently at Old Madam Shen in front of him.
Chen Mingxin also frowned, frequently exchanging glances with Wen Ruyu. He didn't like this atmosphere very much. After a while, he finally spoke, his tone full of irritation, "Grandma, just be frank. Helping Commander Wen like this isn't your style!"
Before Shen Mingxin could finish his words, an old hammer hit his head with quite a bit of force, causing Shen Mingxin to scream in surprise.
"Grandma, this is my head, not a watermelon, it will hurt." Shen Mingxin looked at Mrs. Shen with a look full of resentment.
"I'm your grandmother. I also watched Ruyu grow up. Can't I help him?" Old Madam Shen said, her clear eyes fixed on the roses in the garden that had not mutated. "Although I have never seen that girl, she was so courageous and dared to kill that old bastard's so-called grandchildren. I like her. If I had that kind of ruthless heart back then, I wouldn't..."
Although she didn't say anything else, Wen Ruyu knew what she was thinking from the moment she said she wanted to protect Bai Ling.
However, these words made her even more of a thorn in the side of Shen Yehe and others. Now was a time for change. If they were determined, they could use the Shen family's reputation to trick many people with special abilities into working for them.
Her situation was not as optimistic as it had been before the apocalypse. Fortunately, she was not alone. With her words of protecting Bai Ling, he was finally relieved about the Shen family. If someone attacked from behind, Shen Mingxin would not let them go without his help. He could just cut off their hands in broad daylight.
"Although I am old and my eyesight is not as clear as before, I know clearly in my heart what they want and it has not changed." The old lady whispered again.
Shen Mingxin is naturally not so incompetent. It can be said that now the entire Shen family is managed by him alone, except for Mrs. Shen and Mr. Shen behind the scenes.
Earlier in the study, he had been very respectful and had never left Old Madam Shen's side. He was very considerate and polite. He had never spoken, but his eyes were sharp, making people afraid to look at Shen Mingxin easily.
