Chapter 311 Xu Jin Feels Guilty
Shen Ziming's mind was already a bit muddled from drinking, but he still retained some consciousness.
He wondered why his second brother hadn't come to pick him up yet.
Mr. Xu had already passed out drunk, and Mrs. Xu came out cursing and helped him into the house.
As she helped him into the house, she didn't forget to tell her daughter, "Xiao Jin, Mom just finished cleaning the room next to yours. Help Ziming over there to rest for a while, and then wait for Shen Mo to come and pick him up."
"Oh, okay."
Xu Jin was also quite drunk, but she had always had a high alcohol tolerance since she was a child, even better than her father. Her mother knew this, which is why she gave her instructions.
Xu Jin got up feeling dizzy. "Brother Shen, let me help you to bed for a while."
*
The next morning, Jiang Ning woke up with a headache.
But it didn't hurt too much.
Jiang Ning got out of bed just as Shen Mo walked in.
He stepped forward and helped her up. "Honey, does your head still hurt? Is anything else bothering you?"
Jiang Ning shook her head and used Shen Mo's strength to walk out.
After a while, the headache subsided.
Jiang Ning and Shen Mo walked into the main room, where Shen's mother and father were serving breakfast.
Seeing Jiang Ning come out, Chen's mother asked with some concern, "Ningning, are you feeling unwell? I specially cooked some porridge for you."
The children came out rubbing their eyes, and their eyes lit up when they saw Jiang Ning. They immediately rushed towards their mother.
One by one, they called out in their baby voices, "Mama."
The stools at home were a bit high, but now the children can sit on them by themselves.
Shen Mo carried Lezhi and Nanxing, one in each arm, onto the stool.
When his gaze fell on Zhiqi beside him, Zhiqi quickly and obediently sat down on the stool.
Zhiqi knew in his heart that his parents did this because they didn't want him to feel disappointed.
After being adopted by his parents, he realized how happy it is to grow up surrounded by love.
Seeing Zhiqi climb onto the stool by himself, Lezhi and Nanxing suddenly climbed down onto the stool using both their hands and feet.
Shen Mo knew that children think differently, and assumed they were just playing around by climbing up and down.
Just as he was about to reach out with a loving father's smile to put the two children back on the stool,
Suddenly, his daughter waved his hand away, saying, "Dad, I want to be like my brother, I want to go up there too."
When his daughter waved his hand away, Shen Mo's paternal love had nowhere to go.
Nanxing was also pulling himself up onto the stool.
The two little ones amused everyone in the room.
Breakfast was served, and only then did Mr. Shen go into the house and bring out Old Master Shen.
Old Master Shen sat at the octagonal table, glanced around, and noticed that someone was missing from the room.
He asked in confusion, "Has Ziming not gotten up yet?"
Upon hearing this, the room suddenly fell silent.
Shen Mo was stunned for a second before realizing that he had left his older brother at Xu Jin's house.
He said yesterday that he would go pick up his older brother after settling his wife in, but he completely forgot.
The Xu family and the Shen family have always had a close relationship, so he wasn't too worried.
Shen Mo briefly recounted how Xu's father had kept him drinking yesterday. Upon hearing that Shen Ziming was at Xu's house, the old man was no longer worried and happily began to eat breakfast.
The Shen family had just started enjoying a hot breakfast when guests arrived at the door.
Xu Jin was dragged by the ear and led into the Shen family's gate by her father, who looked furious.
Xu Jin cried out as she was being pulled, "Hey, Dad, my ears hurt! My ears hurt!"
Upon arriving at the main room of the Shen family home, Xu's father finally let go of his hand.
Xu Jin looked up and met the gaze of the entire Shen family.
Xu Jin, who was invincible in the compound, was unusually timid.
She timidly greeted each member of the Shen family one by one.
"Hi, good morning, Grandpa Shen, Uncle Shen, Aunt Shen, Qianqian, Shen Mo, and Ningning."
Um?
The entire Shen family was completely bewildered.
What's wrong?
Father Shen spoke first, "It's so early in the morning, have you had breakfast yet? Old Xu, sit down and have something to eat."
Mr. Xu said, "What are you going to eat? I brought this girl here to apologize to you!"
Mr. Shen looked bewildered. "Apologize to us? What happened to Xiao Jin? Nothing's wrong with our family."
Suddenly, Xu's father reached out and grabbed his son's ear again.
Seeing this, Chen's mother felt sorry for the child and quickly said, "Just talk, don't hit the child."
Xu's father said, "Xiao Qin, why are you so sorry for her? This girl is really messing up your Ziming!"
Hoho?
What's going on?
Hearing this, they were even more confused.
"I drank too much last night, and the alcohol got to my head. Before I knew it, I had...slept with Brother Shen..." Xu Jin said softly.
Xu Jin had been a tyrant since childhood, and this was the first time she had spoken with such a weak tone.
Um?
What?
What is that?
Hearing this, Xu's father felt a lump in his throat. "You said it was an accident? I think you just saw that Ziming was drunk and let him do whatever he wanted!"
Xu Jin felt even more guilty after being exposed by her own father without hesitation.
She admitted that she had had feelings for Brother Shen for a long time!
Yesterday, Brother Shen was like a lonely little lamb in front of her.
And... moreover, Brother Shen didn't struggle at all in the end; he even cooperated with her...
Jiang Ning sat on the bench without saying a word, silently giving Xu Jin a thumbs up in her heart.
She had a vague guess when Xu Jin came to discuss the issue of Yin-Yang balance with her.
Given Xu Jin's and Brother Shen's personalities, if Xu Jin is pushed too far, she might actually resort to forcing herself on him.
Her guess turned out to be correct.
People of this era may be old-fashioned in their thinking, but their actions are anything but.
Moreover, Xu Jin is someone who has studied abroad.
It's normal for her to be open-minded and behave in a way that way.
But Xu Jin herself said that she had the desire to steal but not the courage to do so.
After a while, Jiang Ning understood.
I thought to myself, this wine is really good stuff.
Moreover, judging from the looks of it, Xu Jin seems to have succeeded, and Brother Shen might not be unhappy about it either.
Thinking about this, Jiang Ning felt a little confused.
Hey, where's the older brother?
At this moment, Xu's mother and Shen Ziming, carrying large and small bags, stepped into the Shen family's house.
Shen Ziming naturally wanted to go home with them to explain, but Xu's father, with his impulsive nature, took Xu Jin and left, while Shen Ziming was held back by Xu's mother.
Then Xu's mother brought out a bunch of things, intending to visit the Shen family.
Shen Ziming was clear-headed. After this incident, he originally wanted to have a good talk with the Xu family, but the Xu family members were all impulsive and hot-tempered.
Uncle Xu picked up Xiao Jin and left; he hadn't even had time to react.
But Xu's mother grabbed him and insisted that he take the things back to the Shen family home.
