Chapter 29 Move out of the Shen family next month
Shen Que's words made Song Wei take a step back, and the expression on her face changed from infatuation to embarrassment.
Song Wei couldn't find any words to refute, so she could only stare at the person in front of her, her palms deeply dug into by her nails.
The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point and no one spoke.
At this moment, Shen Que's cell phone rang.
He opened it in front of Song Wei, and it was a voice message from Meng Zhiyi.
"Check the ridge."
Just two words, the crisp sound broke the silence.
[Just came out of the house, about to go back to school, do you want to have a midnight snack?] Shen Que typed a reply to Meng Zhiyi's message as if no one was around.
Soon, Shen Que heard Meng Zhiyi's gritted teeth voice again: "Are you going to fatten me up and then dump me?"
Shen Que: [I remember there was a restaurant that served really good pork.]
"Well, since you recommend it so highly, I'll make it a little less tasty. I want it slightly spicy, with lots of cilantro, thank you."
At this moment, Meng Zhiyi's voice was like a sharp knife stabbing into Song Wei's heart.
Shen Que raised his eyes, looked at her indifferently, and said: "If you have nothing to do recently, just stay in school and don't run around."
After saying that, he turned around and got into the car without giving Song Wei a chance to speak.
In the darkness of the night, Song Wei stood there like a wooden stake, her eyes fixed on the direction Shen Que drove away, even though there was nothing there anymore.
Old Madam Shen was standing at the window on the second floor, looking at Song Wei with a serious expression. She saw the whole scene of her stopping Shen Que just now.
"This Song Wei is really greedy. Go and call her over." Old Madam Shen said to the housekeeper beside her with a bit of anger in her tone.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
The housekeeper responded, turned around and went downstairs.
After a while, Song Wei was brought to the living room by the housekeeper.
"Grandma, you're looking for me."
At this moment, Song Wei's expression had calmed down a little. She clasped her hands in front of her, lowered her brows and looked submissive, like a good girl.
Little did she know that Old Madam Shen had already seen through her hypocritical appearance, but was just too lazy to expose her.
Old Madam Shen was feeding the turtle in the fish tank with her head down. She asked without raising her head, "You are nineteen this year, right?"
Song Wei: "Yes, it's my birthday in a month."
Madam Shen: "Then according to the agreement, you should leave the Shen family when you turn 19."
Hearing this, Song Wei raised her head abruptly, with a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.
"Grandma wants to chase me away?"
Old Madam Shen raised her head, her eyes filled with majesty, completely unlike the friendly and easy-going look she had when facing Meng Zhiyi.
Song Wei's face turned pale and she bit her lip, not daring to look at Old Madam Shen.
Old Madam Shen threw down the tweezers in her hand, walked to the sofa beside her and sat down, her voice even colder: "Why, after living in the Shen family for a few years, you really think you are a member of the Shen family?"
Song Wei lowered her head and didn't dare to answer.
But Old Madam Shen didn't want to stop there, and continued: "Your parents did have an agreement with Xiao Que's parents, but these are past events that don't need to be mentioned again. Three years ago, your second uncle Song Zhaojing asked you to make a choice, whether you wanted 30 million or the marriage contract."
"You should not have forgotten your choice at that time, right?"
When this was mentioned, Song Wei's face turned even paler.
Except for the Shen family and her, no one knew that before Meng Zhiyi, she was the one who had an engagement with Shen Que.
But, all of this was ruined by her.
How could Song Wei have imagined at that time that Meng Zhiyi would appear?
She was just overconfident and thought that even without an engagement, she could still make Shen Que fall in love with her.
However, not long after she made that decision, Old Madam Shen personally decided to arrange a marriage between Shen Que and Meng Zhiyi.
Seeing that Song Wei didn't say anything, Mrs. Shen was too lazy to waste any more words.
She waved her hands and gave a death order: "Then next month, after your birthday, you will move out of the Shen family."
Having said that, Old Madam Shen got up and went upstairs to rest.
Song Wei didn't dare to say a word from beginning to end, but she was already extremely resentful of the old woman in her heart.
After there was no one in the living room, she slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with gloom.
As if she had made some decision in her heart, Song Wei glanced resentfully in the direction of the upper floor, and finally left.
Upstairs, the housekeeper brought Madam Shen a cup of soothing tea and said in a worried tone, "Madam, is it inappropriate for you to chase her out so directly?"
Madam Shen: "I know it's inappropriate, but letting her stay in the Shen family will only make it worse."
"Are you concerned about Miss Meng?" asked the housekeeper.
She shook her head and said earnestly, "Yiyi is the one who makes me feel least worried. It's Xiaoque that I'm worried about."
At the same time, there is a pavilion under the school dormitory building.
Meng Zhiyi frowned and said in a haughty voice: "I don't eat green onions, I only eat cilantro, why did you put so much in there! Pick it out, or I'll get mad!"
After saying this, she crossed her arms over her chest and looked at him angrily, but she felt proud in her heart.
[Shen Que, I wonder how long you can endure this.]
"Then you eat the meat pie first and wait." Shen Que's voice was gentle. After stuffing the meat pie into Meng Zhiyi's hand, he began to carefully pick out the chopped green onions in the bowl.
Meng Zhiyi held a meat pie in her hand, frowned, and looked at Shen Que in silence.
[Are all children from wealthy families so emotionally stable? ]
[Wanzi, if this continues, it will take me forever to complete the mission! ]
[Why is this 3% disgust value so difficult? 】
[This shouldn't be the case. What went wrong? ]
Shen Que was picking scallions while listening to Meng Zhiyi's mumbling, with an imperceptible indulgence in his eyes.
Originally, his original intention was just to dig deeper into Meng Zhiyi's secrets, so he decided to cooperate with her in performing such a drama.
However, after getting to know her, Shen Que discovered that Meng Zhiyi was not as annoying as she seemed. Instead, after hearing her true feelings, he found that she was actually quite lovable.
"I'm starving, can you please hurry up?"
Meng Zhiyi decided to keep working on it.
Shen Que: "It will be fine soon, just bear with it for a while."
After a while, all the chopped green onions in the bowl were picked up by him, even though Meng Zhiyi used chopsticks to turn it over and over, trying to find some remnants so that she could continue to argue with Shen Que about it.
Seeing this, Meng Zhi was discouraged and had no choice but to give up.
She ate in big mouthfuls, then threw the mess on the table, stood up and said angrily, "I'm going back to sleep!"
Then he turned around and ran back to the dormitory.
I ran all the way, muttering to myself all the way.
[No, no, given the current situation, I have to change my strategy.]
[My retirement life, my 30 billion, my money! ]
[Ah!!! (Wail)]
Shen Que stayed where he was, picking up the garbage on the table. Listening to Meng Zhiyi's wailing, he finally couldn't help but chuckle.
He threw away the garbage, wiped his hands with a wet towel, looked towards the dormitory with a smile, and whispered, "Three billion... So this is your mission reward?"
*
On the other side, after leaving Shen's house, Song Wei went straight to a residential area.
This is the house that I bought with part of the 30 million I took from the Shen family.
Song Wei seldom comes back here because her second uncle Song Zhaojing lives here.
Song Zhaojing is 48 years old this year. He was spoiled by his parents when he was young and became lazy. As a result, he is lazy and idle at this age, spending all day playing online games.
Ever since Song Wei's parents got into trouble, the Song family lost their financial support. Song Zhaojing was incompetent and angered the two elders to death, and then he came to Song Wei who was fostered in the Shen family.
The appearance of Song Zhaojing also became an important part of changing Song Wei's destiny.
Like Shen Que, Song Wei's parents were also special forces personnel, carrying out special missions all year round. Her parents died in an anti-terrorism mission.
Before their death, her parents entrusted her to the care of their good friends and comrades-in-arms, the Shen couple, who then took her to the Shen family to be raised until she reached adulthood.
However, after Song Zhaojing had angered his parents to death, he was desperate and found Song Wei, and instigated her to give up her engagement with Shen Que and choose to ask for her parents' pension.
After getting 30 million from the Shen family, Song Zhaojing continued his lazy life.
The Shen family kept their promise and allowed Song Wei to stay until she was nineteen years old.
"Go up, to the left. There's a protruding figure on the left."
Song Wei's thoughts were interrupted by Song Zhaojing's voice. She pushed the door open and walked in. She saw her second uncle sitting in front of the computer playing games in the dim space.
She fumbled for the switch on the wall.
The moment the lights came on, Song Wei was so angry at the scene before her that she trembled.
The large living room was filled with garbage and takeout boxes, and the air was filled with the smell of rotten food.
After the lights came on, Song Zhaojing also noticed her arrival.
He just turned his head and glanced at her quickly, then continued playing the game, saying, "Xiao Wei is back. By the way, how is the progress between you and Shen Que? Have you said when you will get married? If it really doesn't work out, you can just take off your clothes and climb into his bed and make it a done deal."
"As long as you marry him, I can enjoy happiness for the rest of my life."
