Chapter 243 No Way Out (3)
Shen Miao saw his cautious expression, and she sighed faintly inwardly. She couldn't tell Shen Qiu the truth. The eldest wife of the Shen family was a kind and loyal person. If she knew that such a vicious thing was done by her, she would be extremely distressed. She could only lie to Shen Qiu. Shen Miao smiled slightly, "I really don't have such a capability. Big brother, don't doubt me. But what Big brother is worried about now, in fact, there is no need to worry too much."
Shen Qiu looked at Shen Miao. Unconsciously, when he was facing Shen Miao, his conversation had become more questioning. He asked, "Why do you think so, sister?"
"People aren't fools. How can we convict someone based on just a few rumors? If they really want to convict someone, they'll naturally produce overwhelming evidence. Besides, what relationship does Big Sister have with our eldest branch? My parents are away from home all year round, so even if they throw mud at us, it won't reach us. Even if the situation is a hundred times more chaotic right now, it's not our responsibility to worry about it. There are naturally 'smart and capable' people who can solve these problems together."
"A smart and capable person?" Shen Qiu was puzzled: "Who is that?"
Before he finished speaking, he heard Bai Lu shouting outside, "Second Young Master, why are you here?"
“Look,” Shen Miao turned around, a smile flashing in her eyes: “A smart and capable person is here.”
Chen Qiu rolled his eyes, quickly walked to the door, and opened it. Sure enough, he saw Chen Yuan standing there. Chen Yuan had always been particular about his appearance, but now, perhaps after a busy night, he looked a little haggard. Compared to his pretentious demeanor a few days ago, the look he gave Chen Miao and her brother now was undisguisedly gloomy. He said, "Fifth sister, I have something to tell you alone."
"My sister has nothing to say to you." Shen Qiu stood in front of Shen Miao and deliberately emphasized the three words "my sister".
“It’s alright, big brother,” Shen Miao said, “It just so happens that I also have a few words to say to second brother.”
"Sister." Shen Qiu said anxiously, almost saying "That thing is not a good person". Shen Miao patted Shen Qiu's arm: "Don't worry, if you are worried, just guard the door."
"Then I'll guard the door." Shen Qiu said quickly.
The brother and sister's behavior made Shen Yuan's face turn pale. In the past, no matter how much Shen Qiu disliked him, he always put on a friendly face. This time, they came back and it was a sharp confrontation. Shen Yuan's eyes fell on Shen Miao. Many things should have been fine if they just followed the established path at the beginning. They deviated from the path and even reached the point where they could not recover, all because of Shen Miao.
She is the biggest variable in the Shen family.
"Fifth sister, come in with me." Chen Yuan glanced at Chen Qiu coldly: "Brother, please stand guard at the door as well." After saying this, he took the lead and stepped into the house.
Amidst everyone’s worried gazes, Shen Miao also walked in.
The door was slowly closed. Shen Miao turned around and was met with Shen Yuan’s gloomy expression: “You did it.”
His tone was very sure, without even probing. Shen Miao smiled slightly, "What incident are you talking about, second brother? The incident of the Prince's Mansion being wiped out, or the incident of rumors spreading like wildfire."
"Didn't you do all of that?" Chen Yuan sneered, "I finally underestimated you."
“I’m afraid Second Brother overestimates me,” Shen Miao said without caring, “I don’t have that much ability yet. I can still escape unscathed after doing such a disaster.”
"Oh?" Chen Yuan looked her up and down before saying, "You are not living a very happy life now."
