On this day, the two were checking accounts in the study.
Shen Qingtang suddenly put down the account book, her expression turning serious: "Ling Wei, the matter of Pei Yurou harassing my second brother is probably not that simple. She's just a girl, she doesn't have that much guts. She's probably being instructed by someone to use my second brother to disrupt the Shen family, or even harm you."
Su Lingwei paused for a moment, then nodded: "I also find it strange. She used to avoid Shen Mingzhao like the plague, so this sudden initiative is indeed unusual."
"So you need to be extra careful."
As Shen Qingtang spoke, she took out a small pistol and a porcelain bottle from her spatial storage and handed them to her. "This pistol is easy to carry and can be used for self-defense. The porcelain bottle contains antidote pills. No matter what kind of poison it is, it can neutralize it once ingested. Carry it with you wherever you go in the future, so that no one can take advantage of you."
Holding the gun and porcelain bottle in her hands, Su Lingwei felt a warmth in her heart and nodded vigorously: "Thank you, Qingtang. With you here, I'm not afraid of anything."
After dealing with Su Lingwei's matter, Shen Qingtang went to see Shen Mingzhao.
Upon learning of Shen Qingtang's concerns, Shen Mingzhao's expression instantly darkened, and his tone became firm: "Qingtang, don't worry. I know Pei Yurou has ill intentions, and I will stay far away from her from now on. Moreover, my innocence will only be reserved for Ling Wei, and I will never allow anyone to slander us."
He had barely finished speaking.
He heard a slight noise behind him, turned around and saw Su Lingwei standing at the door, her cheeks as red as ripe apples.
She avoided his gaze, not daring to look at him.
They had obviously heard what he said.
Shen Mingzhao blushed instantly, standing there at a loss for words.
Su Lingwei was so embarrassed that she whispered, "I have something to do, I'll go take care of it first."
Like a startled deer, it turned and ran away quickly.
Watching her flustered figure, Shen Mingzhao slapped his forehead in frustration, his cheeks burning hot.
Shen Qingtang, standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Second brother, now that's great! Your sweetheart heard your confession, why don't you hurry up and chase after her?"
Shen Mingzhao scratched his head and smiled somewhat embarrassedly: "I... I'm just nervous."
"Why be nervous when pursuing a wife? You have to show sincerity!" Shen Qingtang stepped forward, patted his shoulder, and gave him advice. "Ling Wei is thoughtful and values sincerity the most. Don't just talk the talk, walk the walk. Show her more care. She works hard to manage your business, so bring her some of her favorite snacks and talk to her more. She likes peace and quiet, so don't confess to her in front of a lot of people. Find a quiet place and tell her your feelings properly."
After a pause, Shen Qingtang added, "Most importantly, you need to let her know that this isn't just a passing fancy, but that you genuinely want to spend your life with her. Ling Wei has gone through a lot of hardships before, so it's understandable that she has concerns. You need to give her enough security and let her believe that you will always be there for her."
Shen Mingzhao nodded repeatedly, his eyes gradually hardening: "I understand! Qingtang, thank you for your advice. I will definitely do my best this time and strive to marry Lingwei as soon as possible!"
As he spoke, he seemed to suddenly find courage.
He chased after Su Lingwei in the direction she had run. Shen Qingtang watched his retreating figure, smiled, and shook her head. It seemed that her second brother's journey to win over his wife was finally about to officially begin.
All she can do is offer silent support from behind the scenes, so that everyone around her can find their own happiness.
He shook his head helplessly, but a hint of a smile was hidden in his eyes. This slow-witted second brother was finally starting to show some signs of pursuing someone.
She had just turned to go back to her study when a strange unease swept over her, a feeling that Pei Yurou wouldn't let the matter rest.
He subconsciously walked towards the textile workshop, wanting to remind Su Lingwei to be more careful.
