Chapter 221 The Moment of Slapping Face
Old Master Shen was completely stunned.
Jiang Ning is the first person to receive personal visits from two university presidents.
He misjudged him!
Who would have thought that Shen Mo's wife would be so formidable.
Not only were Mr. and Mrs. Shen completely bewildered, but even Principal Chen was somewhat confused.
Capital University and Capital Medical University are both prestigious universities, and countless students study hard for years just to get into them.
He acknowledged that Jiang Ning was a genius, and that it would bring honor to their school if such a talented student graduated from Capital Medical University.
He assumed that Principal Lin thought the same way he did, but had already poached people to the Capital University before him.
But no one expected that Principal Lin would actually snatch someone up to become a teacher at the school.
Which university teacher doesn't have rich experience and many years of teaching experience to become a teacher?
This is not what he expected.
Principal Lin's words completely silenced Principal Chen.
Principal Lin even felt that he didn't need to come at all.
Trying to steal him away, you little brat.
Fortunately, he had the foresight to recognize talent and had the person tied up at the school beforehand.
I originally came along to see what conditions the other party was offering.
It turned out he was overthinking it.
Principal Lin relaxed completely.
Seeing that the die was cast, Principal Chen knew that saying anything more would be a waste of breath, so he immediately took his leave from Professor Qi.
He had a vague feeling that he might regret missing this opportunity later.
Professor Qi didn't say a word the whole time; he was just a guide.
As he left, he looked at Jiang Ning with a complicated expression. She seemed to notice and suddenly turned to meet his gaze.
Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow.
Professor Qi lowered his head slightly and left with Principal Chen.
Jiang Ning's lips curled slightly.
She did it on purpose.
When faced with others' presumptuous questioning, she explained that further explanation would only make people think she was being unreasonable.
Only when the facts are laid bare will there be a stark and painful moment of slap in the face.
That's why the old man avoids her whenever he sees her.
The president of Capital Medical University and Professor Qi left, but Grandpa Shen wanted President Lin to stay for dinner.
Just then, Shen's mother stood up and said to Jiang Ning and Shen Mo, "Ningning, are you going back to teach Zhiqi how to do his homework? You and Shen Mo should go back first."
Suddenly, Shen's father stood up from his stool and said to Shen Mo with a stern face, "How long did you take leave today?"
Shen Mo and his father seemed to understand each other perfectly. He said, "Half a day. There's still training when we get back this afternoon."
Father Shen nodded, pretending to glance at his watch, "It's about time now, you should take your daughter-in-law back quickly."
Shen Mo nodded.
Seeing that Jiang Ning and the others were about to leave, Principal Lin also took his leave.
Shen Ziming offered to see them off.
This group of people came together, and they left together as a group.
After Jiang Ning and the others left, the main hall of the Shen family suddenly became deserted.
Old Master Shen slammed his cane on the ground, making two loud thuds. His face was grim as he looked at Mr. and Mrs. Shen and said, "What? Now that we've separated the family, I can't even let people stay for a meal?"
Father Chen sat back down on the stool. "Dad, aren't we still here?"
The sinking of the father and mother was intentional.
In the past, Old Master Shen would have definitely scolded him, but faced with his eldest son's indifferent expression, he suddenly couldn't say anything.
The Shen family has reached this point entirely because of his own actions.
But he wanted to keep both of his sons alive, so he had no choice but to make this decision.
At this moment, Shen Bingwei and his family suddenly returned.
Shen Bingwei was carrying pork, his wife was carrying some vegetables, and his eldest son and daughter-in-law, Shen Pianran, and his grandson had also returned.
Shen Bingwei greeted Shen's father with a "Oh!"
"Brother and sister-in-law, what brings you here? You should have told us earlier, then we would have prepared more food. We don't even know if this is enough," Shen Bingwei said as he walked into the house.
Then he turned to his wife and said, "Go and buy some more groceries. The little we bought isn't enough to entertain my brother and sister-in-law."
After saying that, he looked at Mr. and Mrs. Shen and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, you'll have to wait a little longer for this meal. By the way, brother and sister-in-law, you said before that you would never come home again. Why did you suddenly come back today?"
Shen Bingwei did it on purpose.
It's quite a walk to buy groceries from the retirement compound. When the two families separated before, they actually had a pretty ugly falling out.
The old man got angry, and the eldest brother's family wanted to divide the family property.
In the end, they were so angry that the old man almost severed ties on the spot. Shen Bingwei was naturally happy to see this happen. If his elder brother really broke off relations with the old man, wouldn't all the property left by the old man be his?
He used to pretend to be a brother, but now he doesn't even want to pretend anymore.
Shen's parents were not unaware of the sarcasm in his words.
The division of the family property did cause some unpleasantness, to the point that the old man said he wanted to sever ties, but everyone knew that it was just something he said in anger.
The old man suddenly pretended to be sick and asked them to come home. Upon hearing the news that the old man was ill, they rushed home as soon as possible, despite the previous embarrassment.
Shen Bingwei was unaware that the old man was faking illness; he only assumed that his parents had returned to ease tensions.
Shen's father wasn't one for scheming; he sensed the sarcasm in Shen Bingwei's words.
If no one welcomes them, why are they still staying here?
“We weren’t planning on having this meal anyway.” After saying that, Mr. Shen looked at his wife and said, “Honey, let’s go home and eat.”
Mother Shen nodded.
After saying that, Mr. and Mrs. Shen left.
They left decisively, which surprised Shen Bingwei.
Could it be that my older brother and sister-in-law suddenly came back not to make amends?
Old Master Shen was surprised that his eldest son and daughter-in-law left so suddenly. He looked at Shen Bingwei with displeasure and said, "I'm the one who called your elder brother and sister-in-law back. Were you trying to slap me in the face with what you just said?"
Shen Bingwei was taken aback.
The old man was very concerned about his reputation. After the family division caused such a big fuss, why did he call people back?
Shen Bingwei was completely baffled, but when they sat down at the dinner table, Old Master Shen's words completely shocked him.
Old Master Shen was in a bad mood, and during the meal, Shen Bingwei couldn't help but ask—
"Dad, since your older brother and sister-in-law have made you so angry, why did you call them back?"
Old Master Shen glanced at him and calmly dropped a bombshell: "The president of Capital Medical University has personally come to visit, wanting to see Shen Mo's wife."
President of Capital Medical University?
Shen Bingwei didn't care about the younger generation.
Shen Pianran, who was engrossed in her meal, suddenly looked up, thinking she had misheard.
The president of Capital Medical University is looking for Jiang Ning?
How is it possible!?
She didn't want to admit to this guess, but then she heard her grandfather say, "We called your eldest brother and sister-in-law back to have them bring Shen Mo's wife here. But the president of the Capital University also came along. The president of the Capital University actually took a liking to Shen Mo's wife and offered her a teaching position at the university."
Grandpa Shen dropped bomb after bomb, leaving Shen Bingwei's family completely stunned.
Upon hearing the old man's words, Shen Pianran turned her head and stared intently at him, wishing she had been hallucinating.
How could Jiang Ning become a teacher at the Capital University?
She doesn't even have a diploma!
Shen Pianran calmed down, put down her chopsticks and looked at the old man, "Grandpa, are you sure you're not mistaken? My second sister-in-law doesn't even have a diploma, how could she possibly become a teacher at the Capital University?"
Grandpa Shen glanced at her. "When your second cousin-in-law came back, the president of Capital University also came. Do you think I would lie to you?"
Grandpa Shen has a large family and has lived to this age, which is a great blessing in his life.
The more children and grandchildren a family has, the more likely they are to compare and compete with each other.
His eldest son is ambitious and hardworking, and his children are all doing well. Now, even Shen Mo's wife, whom he disliked the most, is surprisingly capable.
However, his eldest son's family became estranged from him.
Thinking of this, Old Master Shen felt a tightness in his chest, as if he had a breath stuck in his throat.
Turning her head, she was met with her second son's smiling face.
Bingwei has a sweet tongue and always says things that resonate with him, but he's not as good as Bingting at teaching children.
My son isn't very successful, except for Pianran, who's not bad.
But when you compare Pianran with Shen Mo's wife, the difference becomes huge.
