"Shut up."
As soon as Chen Lin finished speaking, the old lady pointed at him and said angrily, "I am your grandmother, one of your closest relatives. How could you say such a thing?"
"Grandma is indeed an elder, a fact that Chen Lin never forgets and always keeps in mind. But please, Grandma, don't forget that respect and being respected go hand in hand. If Grandma doesn't care about my feelings at all, does that mean I can also disregard Grandma's feelings?"
Shen Lin's voice was like a sharp blade, cutting into the old woman's heart. The old woman pointed at him, trembling, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
At this moment, Shen Lin withdrew his gaze and looked at Jiang An, his face filled with obvious hostility. "So, are you leaving the Shen family or not?"
Jiang An's neck was being gripped by Shen Lin, and after a while, his face was flushed and he was having trouble breathing.
She tried to remove Shen Lin's hand, but Shen Lin didn't take her resistance seriously at all. His gaze was cold and deep. "Jiang An, if you want to find a cheap father for the child in your belly, then let me tell you, finding me is the biggest mistake you've ever made. If you leave the Shen family, I can still give you and your child a chance to live. If you don't want to leave, I will make you pay a price you can't even imagine."
Jiang An's face turned pale, and he couldn't say anything for a long time.
"Are you leaving the Shen family or not?"
Jiang An pursed his lips, and finally spoke, "I'm leaving."
Upon hearing this, the old lady became agitated. She rushed forward, pointed at Shen Lin, and shouted, "No! An'an cannot leave the Shen family! Absolutely not! If she leaves, Shen Lin, I, the old lady, will die right now!"
The old lady had been speaking for a long time, but Shen Lin did not say a word.
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief. This was her trump card. She knew that Shen Lin cared about her and would never disregard her safety.
Just when the old lady thought everything was under her control, Shen Lin spoke up, saying coldly, word by word, "Grandma doesn't even cherish her own health, what can I do? If Grandma really doesn't want to live a comfortable life, I can't control her thoughts."
After Shen Lin finished speaking, he turned to look at Jiang An and said, "Leave the Shen family within one day and don't cause any more trouble."
After saying this, Shen Lin turned around without looking at anyone and quickly left.
He ignored everyone, including the old lady's anger, Jiang An's despair, and Shen Yuxi's complicated gaze.
"Chen Yu, look at this! How has your well-raised son treated his grandmother like this?" the old lady scolded.
Shen Yu and Xi Yuan exchanged a glance. Xi Yuan turned and left without saying anything, but she was very satisfied with Shen Lin's actions.
She even felt that she should have done it a long time ago, and if she had done it sooner, perhaps Ye Xinning wouldn't have divorced Shen Lin.
Shen Yu looked up at the old lady and said, "Mom is getting old. She should weigh what she should and shouldn't do. If Mom had been more obedient, none of this would have happened."
Having said all he needed to say, Shen Yu turned and left without saying anything more.
Only the old lady remained standing there, her face contorted with anger.
After everyone had left, Jiang An stared at the doorway with a dark look in her eyes. She bit her lip, her expression grim.
Should we leave?
Sure.
Shen Lin, did you think this was the end?
hehe!
...
After leaving the Shen family home, Shen Lin drove aimlessly on the road. He didn't want to go back to Ming Mansion, nor did he want to go to the company, and he certainly didn't want to find Chi Zhao and the others.
He felt empty inside. The car drove on and on, and before he knew it, they had arrived at the entrance of Ye Xinning's law firm.
By the time Shen Lin realized what was happening, the car had already stopped in front of the law firm.
He rubbed his temples, self-deprecatingly saying that the only person he could think of was her, and he didn't want to see anyone else.
But he didn't have the courage to actually go up and talk to her.
He did so many hurtful things to her before, so now, whenever he appears in front of her, she's bound to be heartbroken.
Shen Lin stood at the door for a long time, but in the end he didn't have the courage to get out of the car and go in to talk to Ye Xinning. In the end, he drove away.
This trip to the law firm reminded him of the night he regained his memory, when Ye Xinning was drugged.
He needs to find out exactly who dares to mess with her!
Was he dead when he was in the throes of despair? They had only been divorced for a short time, and yet someone dared to set their sights on her.
...
Ye Xinning has been busy with other things these past few days and hasn't paid any attention to Shen Lin at all.
She had been investigating the incident of being drugged at Mingsheng for the past few days. At first, she thought it was Mr. Yao who drugged her, but later she checked with Mr. Yao and found that he knew nothing about what happened to her that night.
On the contrary, Xia Wan began to spend too much time on her. Sometimes at the law firm, she would stare at her. When their eyes met, Xia Wan would be more profound and complicated than before.
Ye Xinning didn't want to think of Xia Wan as so terrible, after all, in her understanding, she and Xia Wan had never had any major grudges.
However, recalling Xia Wan's unusual behavior during this period, and Xia Wan's words and actions on the night of the incident, she always felt that there were too many suspicious things about this matter. Xia Wan was really too suspicious, and she had to focus her attention on Xia Wan.
...
That day, after get off work hours, Xia Wan stayed behind to handle some work, but the phone kept ringing. With no other option, she took her phone to the break room.
Xia Wan was making a phone call in the break room. She didn't know who was on the other end of the line. The person on the other end spoke a few words, sounding very anxious, "He's utterly useless. He can't even handle a woman who's been drugged."
“Miss Xia, when that person from the Shen family showed up, even if we wanted the money, we had to keep our lives to spend it. You know how ruthless that person from the Shen family is. We also had to think about ourselves.” A man’s voice came from the phone. His voice was light and languid.
"Shut up. If you really had the ability, you should have taken him away before Shen Lin found out."
"Miss Xia, that's not right. Who is that person from the Shen family? Do you think we can take someone away from him?"
"inability."
"Yes, we are incompetent. Miss Xia is capable. Why don't you do it yourself? Or should we tell Mr. Shen and let him know that Miss Xia is such a ruthless person?" The person on the other end was enraged by Xia Wan's words and spoke without any politeness.
"Shut up. If you dare to tell anyone about me or spread this around, I won't give you a single penny of the money you want."
