Chapter 35: The more you try to hide, the more obvious it becomes
"Huanhuan, you're here too?!"
Li Mingzhu, as always, greeted Shen Qinghuan warmly.
Shen Qinghuan secretly rolled her eyes, but she still couldn't lose her courtesy. After all, she was at her grandparents' house now. If she were somewhere else, she wouldn't even want to give Li Mingzhu a glance.
"Miss Li is here! You came with my aunt, right? I haven't seen you for a few days. Why are your wrinkles under your eyes getting worse?"
"Shen Qinghuan, if you can't speak, just shut up!"
Jiang Lanya was so angry that her chest felt tight and she felt like she had gained another wrinkle. Why did this little girl come to the old house? Could it be that Jiang Yu was here too? The thought of her nephew who did not play by the rules made her feel a little scared.
Shen Qinghuan frowned, feeling aggrieved. "Aunt, I was just reminding you out of kindness. If you don't appreciate it, then forget it. Why are you scolding me?"
"you……"
Jiang Lanya choked.
"When did I scold you? Shen Qinghuan, stop talking nonsense here."
"No? Then I might have heard it wrong." Shen Qinghuan didn't dwell on this issue.
She picked up an orange on the coffee table and changed the subject with a smile: "Aunt, why didn't my uncle come? I haven't seen him for a while. Is he okay? I heard someone say that you want to divorce my uncle. Aunt, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but if you really divorce my uncle, you will definitely regret it."
Jiang Lanya choked, suppressed her anger, and cursed in a low voice: "Stinky girl! Why are you meddling in other people's business!"
"How can I be considered nosy! Aunt, you are my elder. Isn't it right for the younger generation to care about the elders?"
Shen Qinghuan had never forgotten that slap, and now that she had the chance, how could she not make things difficult for her?
Jiang Lanya sneered, "You care about me? Shen Qinghuan, do you think I will believe you? Only a fool would believe you."
Shen Qinghuan: "Aunt, whether you believe it or not is your business. Even if you don't believe it, it can't change the fact that I care about you."
Li Mingzhu glanced at Shen Qinghuan, opened her mouth slightly, and seemed to want to say something but stopped herself, but she didn't expect to be caught by Shen Qinghuan.
Shen Qinghuan looked at Li Mingzhu deliberately with a wronged look, and the corners of her eyes were red. "Ms. Li, I know, you must want to ask me if A Yu is here. Then I will tell you..."
Before she could speak, Li Mingzhu quickly spoke up to stop her, "Huanhuan, I didn't do that. I came here with Aunt Jiang just to explain what happened at the airport. I don't want you to misunderstand me and A-Yu."
Shen Qinghuan pretended to be happy, "Really? Then explain it to me, I'm listening."
Li Mingzhu choked, feeling sick in her heart, but she didn't dare to delay. "I was originally going to Seattle to relax, but I didn't expect to meet Ayu that night. I was lucky. If it weren't for Ayu, I might... I was robbed on the street that night, and it was Ayu who helped me."
"In the following days, Ayu was worried about my safety, so he asked me to stay with them, and we returned home together."
"Huanhuan, there's really nothing going on between Ah Yu and me. I've never thought of ruining your relationship."
Shen Qinghuan looked at her leisurely, then suddenly smiled, "Ms. Li, have you finished your explanation?"
Every sentence seems to be an explanation, but it actually reveals the unspeakable tacit understanding and beauty between her and Jiang Yu. What a coincidence that Jiang Yu saved her. This is a life-saving grace. Does she intend to repay him with her body?
Is this her explanation?
This is because he is afraid that she doesn't know that they have a good relationship and have been together every day recently.
"Huanhuan, are you angry? I'm sorry, but there's really nothing between Ayu and me. Ayu is just worried about my safety." Li Mingzhu lowered her head helplessly, with a hint of red at the corners of her eyes, as if she had been severely bullied.
Jiang Lanya couldn't bear to see Shen Qinghuan give Li Mingzhu the cold look, "Mingzhu, you did nothing wrong, why are you apologizing to her!"
She comforted Li Mingzhu, and then scolded Shen Qinghuan with a cold face.
"You can't capture Ayu's heart. Instead of reflecting on yourself, you blame Mingzhu. A woman as stupid as you is not worthy of our Ayu!"
Thinking of something, Jiang Lanya sarcastically mocked, "I was wrong. How can you, Shen Qinghuan, be stupid? You are obviously the smartest one. If you hadn't schemed against Ayu, would he have married you? Everyone knows that Ayu likes..."
"Aunt Jiang, please stop talking!"
Li Mingzhu interrupted her anxiously with red eyes.
Jiang Lanya took Li Mingzhu's hand distressedly and said, "Mingzhu, they don't know, but Auntie knows. You have suffered a lot abroad in the past few years. You could have come back, but in order not to embarrass Ayu, you have stayed abroad."
Li Mingzhu lowered her head and said bitterly, "Aunt Jiang, as long as Ayu and Huanhuan are doing well, what does it matter if I suffer a little? Really, as long as Ayu and Huanhuan are happy, I'm even willing to stay abroad for the rest of my life."
"Mingzhu, what nonsense are you talking about! This is your home, why don't you come back? Someone has taken over your home, I don't know where she got the nerve to do it!"
Jiang Lanya gave Shen Qinghuan a mocking look and let her figure it out for herself.
Shen Qinghuan knew that the "someone" Jiang Lanya was talking about was actually her. It was she who shamelessly usurped Li Mingzhu's position as Mrs. Jiang. Everyone felt that if she hadn't schemed against Jiang Yu, she, a poor girl fostered in the Jiang family, would never have been qualified to be Mrs. Jiang!
When they were young, Jiang Yu promised to marry her, but he had long forgotten it. Only she foolishly took it seriously.
Thinking of this, Shen Qinghuan unconsciously placed her hand on her flat belly, hoping that the seed had begun to sprout.
"Mingzhu, you haven't found a job yet, right? I'll have Ayu arrange for you to work at Jiang's."
Jiang Lanya said this and glanced at Shen Qinghuan proudly.
Shen Qinghuan lowered her head and played games, not looking at Jiang Lanya. She was always worried that she would not be able to help but talk back to her.
But Jiang Lanya was a troublemaker. She loved to teach Shen Qinghuan a lesson no matter what, to show off her status in the Jiang family. "Shen Qinghuan, when Mingzhu goes to work at Jiang's, you'd better not bully her. If I find out that she has been wronged at Jiang's, I will blame you."
Shen Qinghuan could no longer bear it.
