Chapter 48 The heroine has five big brothers (48)
She didn't say that she was biased towards Shen Zhao just because he was her own son.
But Shen Ya was present in both incidents. Is Shen Ya really so innocent?
Thinking of the rumors on the Internet, when she saw Shen Ya interacting with her sons, her womanly intuition instantly made her alert.
This girl...
Is she really as simple as her appearance?
"I, I treat my brothers as my family, so I didn't keep my distance from them." Shen Ya said.
"When I say keep a distance, I don't mean keep a distance in your relationship. You can have a good relationship because you are brother and sister, but because you are brother and sister, you should keep a physical distance. Don't you understand?" Duan Li asked.
"My brothers want to touch my head, and I can't refuse..."
With just a few words, he pushed the blame onto the five boys of the Shen family.
Duan Li looked at Shen Ya and suddenly felt that she couldn't see through this child.
Thinking of Shen Ci again, I felt extremely complicated.
The wound on Shen Zhao's forehead was extremely painful, but he didn't dare to call him. He got up from the ground, stood up again, and listened to his father's scolding.
"What do you think now?" After losing his temper, Shen Yongming calmed down a lot and asked Shen Zhao what he thought.
"I... apologize?" he whispered.
Shen Yongming thought for a moment and nodded: "Indeed, you should apologize. Apologize to the daughter of the Tian family."
"Then should I prepare some gifts and pay you a visit?" Shen Zhao asked.
Shen Yongming: "Well, you are not young anymore. You should take care of your own affairs. If something happens to you, let your family take the blame. You are my biological child. Otherwise, I will kick you out of the house."
Shen Zhao lowered his head and said nothing.
"What about you and Xiaoya?" After asking about the Tian family's solution, he asked about Shen Ya's problem again.
Shen Zhao raised his hand and touched the wound on his forehead: "Dad, Xiaoya doesn't like me."
"Then who does she like? That shouldn't be the case. Aren't you two usually the closest?" Shen Yongming said, knocking on the table.
"It seems like that, but she treats me as her brother," said Shen Zhao.
"So, you really like Xiaoya?" Although Shen Yongming is old, his eyes are not blurry and he looks at Shen Zhao brightly.
Shen Zhao whispered, "I just discovered it today as well."
"Go prepare gifts and go to the Tian family to apologize, and call Xiaoya up for me." Shen Yongming said after hesitating for a moment.
Shen Zhao did not leave upon hearing this, but stopped for a moment and asked worriedly, "Dad, what did you ask Xiaoya to do?"
"Can you still kick her out? You're the only one who has feelings for her, but I don't? I've raised her for so many years, and I treat her as my daughter," said Shen Yongming.
Only then did Shen Zhao move downstairs.
As soon as he got downstairs, Shen Ya stood up excitedly: "Second brother, are you okay? Did father do anything to you?"
"Just hit me with a vase, it's okay." Shen Zhao said.
"After all, he is his biological father, how could he be killed?" Duan Li glanced at Shen Ya and said.
Shen Zhao inexplicably felt that his mother was a bit gloomy, but he couldn't figure it out. He looked at Shen Ya and said, "Xiao Ya, father wants you to go up."
"ah."
The expression on Shen Ya's face froze and she stood there.
After staying there for an unknown amount of time, she came to her senses and asked, "Father, what is he going to do?"
Shen Zhao shook his head: "I don't know, I just asked you to go up."
Duan Li looked at Shen Ya's expression which suddenly became uneasy and felt inexplicably ironic. She had just said "it's all my fault", but now she was asked to bear the consequences of her own mistakes, which made her feel scared.
It's just nice words, but her group of children seem to spoil Shen Ya because of all the nice words she says.
Duan Li was worried. She wanted to talk to her husband about this matter more than Shen Ya did.
“Knock, knock.”
Shen Ya knocked on the door of the study. Shen Yongming was sitting at the desk and said, "Come in."
Shen Ya pushed open the door and slowly walked into the study: "Adoptive father." She called softly.
Compared to his strict and fierce attitude towards Shen Zhao, Shen Yongming is much gentler when facing Shen Ya.
He smiled gently, pointed to the sofa opposite the desk, and asked Shen Ya to sit down.
"Xiaoya, it's been a while since we last met." Shen Yongming greeted her.
Shen Ya nodded: "Yes, you and your foster mother have been away for quite some time."
"After all, the Shen family is such a big business." Shen Yongming said.
"Indeed, it's time to be busy."
"Xiaoya, this is your second brother's fault, so I won't say anything to you, but Xiaoya, I want to ask you some questions."
When Shen Yongming said he wanted to ask some questions, Shen Ya was alert inside, but her expression was innocent: "Adoptive father, you ask."
"You have graduated from Yingfeng and have been an adult for a few years."
"Yeah." Shen Yaying.
"Although this is an era of free love, you are a girl. As your adoptive father, I have to help you keep things in check. It's not a big deal. I just want to ask you if you have someone you like." Shen Yongming said slowly.
Shen Yawei opened her mouth, seeming to be startled.
She was shocked for a moment, then burst into tears and said, "Does my foster father want me to get married as soon as possible to clear up the rumors about my second brother and me?"
She deliberately emphasized the word "rumor" in order to wake Shen Yongming up to the fact that those were just rumors.
Shen Yongming shook his head: "That's not what I meant. Well, I asked Shen Zhao, and he said he really likes you, so he thought about asking for your opinion."
"Adoptive father, are you kidding?" Shen Ya said with an expression of disbelief.
"Would I make such a joke?" Shen Yongming asked back.
Shen Ya lowered her eyes and said nothing more, as if she was shocked by the news and did not react at all.
"Now that the rumors have spread like this, unless you and A Zhao promise that you will never develop any feelings other than family affection in the future, otherwise if this matter is brought up again in the future, it will be more fatal than admitting it now." Shen Yongming continued.
Shen Ya bit her lip and said, "But, but I have always regarded my second brother as my real brother."
"I understand what you mean. It's okay. Don't be afraid that I will force you. Just refuse. It's not my fault if you don't like A Zhao." Shen Yongming said.
Shen Ya nodded upon hearing this: "Thank you, foster father, for your understanding."
"Oh yes, A Zhao just said that you have someone you like? Can I ask who this person is? If it is someone I know, I can help you." Shen Yongming said.
Shen Ya pursed her face and smiled embarrassedly: "Adoptive father, you probably don't know me."
"kindness?"
"He is a doctor, but his family background is much better than mine. There is no possibility between us." Shen Ya said.
Doctor, good family background?
Shen Yongming thought of the young master of the Du family, Du Rufeng, whom Shen Tian had introduced to him a year ago.
Is Xiaoya interested in the young master of the Du family?
I heard that Du Rufeng, the young master of the Du family, has a handsome appearance. Nowadays, little girls judge people by their appearance, so it seems natural that Xiaoya would like him.
