Chapter 179 The world has changed
Jiang Yueyao felt that she and Pei Yunjin were not compatible by nature.
How come she always runs into her every time she goes out?
It would have been fine if they just met, but she acted like she was digging up her family's ancestral graves. The moment the other party saw her, it was like they saw an enemy, and their every word was full of malice.
Jiang Yueyao looked at Pei Yunjin and was about to retort.
Shen Linchuan, who was standing by, suddenly walked in front of her and blocked her behind him. Just as he was about to speak, Shen Baoqing spoke before him.
"Pei Yunjin, remember to rinse your mouth next time you go out. Your mouth stinks so much, it's disgusting."
Pei Yunjin's expression changed, and she sneered: "Chen Baoqing, who do you think you are?"
"I'm nothing. I'm an upright person. My father always praises me as a very good girl." She raised her eyebrows, looking proud. "I can't compare to you. You pretend all day long and claim to be the most talented woman in the capital. In my opinion, you are the most useless person."
"you……"
Pei Yunjin was furious. He took a step forward and raised his hand to slap him.
Before Shen Baoqing could raise his hand, a big hand reached over his shoulder and grabbed Pei Yunjin's raised hand.
"Miss Pei?" Shen Linchuan frowned coldly.
His voice was even colder, "In broad daylight, you first hurt people with your words, and then you want to hit them. Do you think this street is your home?"
His grip was so strong that it hurt her.
It seemed as if the bones were about to be crushed by him.
Pei Yunjin was in so much pain that he couldn't utter a word. His face was pale and his forehead was covered in sweat.
The maidservants beside her saw this and rushed over to rescue her. Shen Linchuan sneered and exerted force with his hands. There was a "crack" sound, as if something broke.
There was only a scream, and Pei Yunjin closed his eyes and fainted from the pain on the spot.
The maids and servants standing behind her swarmed up to support her, but they dared not say a word to Shen Linchuan.
Shen Linchuan sneered.
"If you dare to speak rudely to my sister again, I will pull out her tongue!"
After he finished speaking, he took Shen Baoqing with one hand and gently hooked Jiang Yueyao's shoulder with the other hand, and the three of them walked away together.
Walk through the bustling crowd and find a quiet place.
Shen Linchuan then let the two go, then looked at Jiang Yueyao: "She always bullies you?"
Jiang Yueyao looked up at him, and when she met his distressed eyes, her heart warmed.
She nodded: "I don't know how I offended her. Every time I meet her, she humiliates me."
"It's more than just humiliation. I suspect she was the one who planned Yaoyao's snake bite at the Summer Resort last time." Shen Baoqing said angrily, "Pei Yunjin is a villain with a very vicious mind, just like that poisonous snake."
Shen Linchuan looked at Jiang Yueyao, thinking of Pei Yunjin's verbal humiliation of her just now, and couldn't help but think of the past fourteen years, without her family by her side, how much grievance and hurt she had suffered...
I couldn't help but reach out and gently touch her head.
Softened his voice.
"I will protect you from now on. If anyone dares to bully you again, you will just slap them back. Got it?"
His hands were large and he stroked her head gently.
Jiang Yueyao was like a kitten and couldn't help but rub her head against his palm.
Then he raised his lips and nodded heavily.
"Um!"
Seeing that she was so well behaved, Shen Linchuan couldn't help but touch her again. Seeing this, Shen Baoqing beside him also came over eagerly.
"Brother, I want one too."
Shen Linchuan glanced at her, curled his lips helplessly, put his hand over and pinched her cheek.
Then came a sentence.
"You've gained weight, haven't you?"
Shen Baoqing was so angry that he turned around and left.
Jiang Yueyao was so happy that she ran after him, hugged Shen Baoqing's arm, and laughed so hard that she couldn't say a word.
Seeing her like this, Shen Baoqing suddenly stopped being angry.
She hugged him tightly, then turned back to look at Shen Linchuan, who also had a faint smile on his lips.
"Brother, let's go to the theater. I heard there's a new actor at the Baihua Tower with a beautiful voice, as charming as a yellow oriole. Let's go and listen."
Shen Linchuan looked at Jiang Yueyao: "Qiqi, do you want to listen to the opera?"
"Yeah." Jiang Yueyao had never listened to a serious opera before, so she was quite curious.
So, the three of them went to the theater.
As soon as he arrived at the theater and sat down, the guards beside Shen Linchuan came.
He said something in Shen Linchuan's ear, and Shen Linchuan's face changed slightly. He stood up, and Jiang Yueyao and Shen Baoqing, who were sitting next to him, saw it and stood up as well.
After the guard finished speaking and stepped aside, Shen Linchuan looked at his two sisters.
"I'm afraid we can't go to the theater today. We have to go home."
Shen Baoqing wanted to ask, but he knew that this was not the right occasion, so he hurriedly pulled Jiang Yueyao and followed Shen Linchuan out of the theater.
After getting on the carriage and walking out of Jinxiufang to a less crowded place, Shen Linchuan approached the carriage and lowered his voice.
"Grandfather entered the palace early this morning, but was deliberately made difficult by Prime Minister Pei. Now he is trapped in the Yangxin Palace and cannot leave the palace."
Jiang Yueyao and Shen Baoqing's expressions changed at the same time.
Shen Baoqing looked anxious: "Pei Zhangyuan, that bastard, how dare he embarrass my grandfather? My grandfather has a dragon-headed cane."
"Be careful with your words!" Shen Linchuan glanced at her, "Let's talk about it when we get home."
Shen Baoqing had no choice but to suppress his anger and lower the curtain.
On the road, she didn't feel that sense of oppression. But after getting off the carriage and entering the Grand Tutor's Mansion, although nothing seemed to have changed, for some reason, Jiang Yueyao felt that there were more people.
The main gate of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, which originally only had a doorman, now has more black-armored guards.
Shen Linchuan had a stern look on his face as he led the two of them into Wangyue Tower.
At this moment, in the main hall of Wangyue Tower, the eldest master Bai Jinyan, the second master Bai Jinguang, the third master Bai Shaoting and the fourth master Bai Shaochuan were all there, except for the eldest and second masters who were sent out.
All the men in the mansion are here.
Seeing Shen Linchuan coming back with Shen Baoqing and Jiang Yueyao, Shen Huaishan stood up and walked over.
He walked straight towards the two girls with a gentle expression.
The deep voice has the power to calm people's hearts.
"You two go back first, we have something to discuss."
Shen Baoqing wanted to ask something, but when he met his father's solemn eyes, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Although she has a lively personality, she always knows what is important.
Before leaving, Jiang Yueyao couldn't help but look back at Shen Huaishan. Her eyes seemed to be able to speak, allowing Shen Huaishan to see the uneasiness and worry in her heart at a glance.
So he hurriedly comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid."
Jiang Yueyao nodded and followed Shen Baoqing obediently.
The two returned to Yuehua Garden and sat on the soft couch by the window.
There was floor heating in the room, and a small table above the couch was filled with preserved fruits and hot tea.
The tea is fragrant and the preserved fruits are tempting.
But neither of them had the appetite to eat.
Shen Baoqing asked Jiang Yueyao.
"How could Pei Zhangyuan be so bold? Grandfather holds a dragon-headed cane bestowed upon him by the late emperor. This cane can be used to strike down tyrants and execute corrupt officials, yet he's not afraid? He's simply throwing his life away."
Jiang Yueyao's face was solemn.
"My dear, things may be changing in the capital."
Shen Baoqing also thought of it.
The two of them looked ugly...
