Chapter 715: Reversal Again and Again
There are too many reversals today.
The people present were eating the melons until they were full.
The best sentence of the whole event was none other than what Old Lady Shen said.
Shen Jingtong is not actually Old Lady Shen’s son!
What on earth is going on!
Everyone was shocked.
Shen Jingtong climbed over on the ground, but was stopped.
He pursed his lips, looked at Old Lady Shen expectantly, and said with a forced smile: "Father, you are lying to me, right? How could I not be your son? Even if you hate me or are disappointed in me, you can't deny that I am your son."
Old Lady Shen looked at Shen Jingtong's extremely shocked eyes, took a deep breath, sat back in the chair, and said calmly: "Now that things have come to this, I have nothing to hide. This secret has been weighing on my heart for more than 60 years. The child your mother gave birth to, my biological son, was actually a stillbirth. I couldn't bear your mother's sadness, and she couldn't bear the pain of losing a child. Although I was grieving, I still had my sanity. I took advantage of your mother's coma and didn't know it was a stillbirth, and asked someone to bring a child back, and that child was you."
"No, it's impossible--" Shen Jingtong was unwilling to believe it.
But he knew that if it wasn't true, Old Lady Shen wouldn't say that.
Old Lady Shen continued, "I love your mother, but you are not my biological child after all. I can neither tell your mother the truth nor do I want to be separated from her. I promised her that we would be together for the rest of our lives, but your mother can no longer have children. Our Shen family cannot be cut off from me. I adopted you, and in order to come up with a foolproof plan, I could only find a woman outside to give birth to my own child, and that child..."
Everyone looked at Tan Jingyi.
Tan Jingyi looked at all this in a daze, without saying a word, just holding Xu Hui's hand tightly.
Seeing that everyone had guessed it, Old Lady Shen laughed at herself, "Yes, it was Jingyi. Jingyi is my biological daughter. I brought her back and told your mother that this was the child of an old friend of mine. There was no one left at home, so I fostered her in our home. Your mother believed it. You and Jingyi have been childhood sweethearts since you were little. I intend to cultivate the relationship between you. When you grow up, I will let you get married. In this way, your child with Jingyi will be the bloodline of our Shen family."
"I thought I had done it perfectly and that my plan was foolproof, but I never expected that my poor granddaughter would be lost when we moved to Hong Kong Island. I also never thought that Jingyi would be so devastated by the loss of her child. At that time, there was chaos in the country and I couldn't go back to look for her. I also knew that the situation was more dangerous than good. How could a girl survive in such a situation? I wanted Jingyi to have another child with you, so I wanted to wait until the situation in the country was better before going back to look for her."
"But Jingyi has been immersed in grief, and you watched your wife become like this without thinking about how sad she was. You fooled around with Shi Yinhua, which made Jingyi heartbroken. Later, you even had an affair with her nurse. You drove her crazy. I wish I could kill you!"
Speaking of this.
Old Lady Shen was very excited. She looked at Shen Jingtong without any emotion, only hatred. "But I can't help it. Your mother loves you. She allowed you to marry one after another. Seeing you have so many children and grandchildren, I feel so miserable. This is the punishment from God. When the domestic environment is better, I will start to send people to look for her. But China is too big, and it is too difficult to find someone. Until I saw Sui Sui, I saw the jade on her body at a glance. I investigated privately and knew that this was the lost bloodline of my Shen family!"
Shen Jingtong couldn't listen any more.
He staggered and was about to fall.
The other members of the Shen family obviously didn't expect this to happen.
Some things actually have signs that have already been found.
Why is Old Lady Shen always indifferent to them, why is Old Lady Shen the only one who seems like an elder in the family, why does Old Lady Shen only care about Tan Jingyi, everything seems to be clear.
After this explanation, Lu Lanxu looked at Zhu Suisui and whispered, "I finally figured out what I didn't understand."
Zhu Suisui also figured it out.
That's it.
Old Lady Shen looked at the other outsiders and said, "You have made a fool of the Shen family. Now that I am not dead, there is no so-called public memorial service in the funeral hall. Thank you for coming here."
This is driving people away.
The following words were not for them to hear.
Old Mrs. Shen asked everyone else to leave.
soon.
Only the Shen family and Zhu Suisui and a few others were left in the mourning hall.
After being slapped, Shi Yinhua finally understood what was going on. She laughed sarcastically, "Father, so we are all your pawns. You already knew that Shen Muer is not Tan Jingyi's bloodline, but you still played along. This is to protect someone."
Zhu Suisui frowned slightly.
She knew who the "some people" Shi Yinhua was referring to.
But Zhu Suisui never thought that it was because of this.
Old Lady Shen admitted frankly, "I know exactly what kind of person Xu Xiayan is. I remember all the ways she bullied Sui Sui. Bullying Sui Sui means being my enemy. You sent her to me, and I knew what you were thinking. I simply played along with you. I gave Xu Xiayan the Shen family status she wanted. She coveted vanity, so I gave it to her, too. But don't forget, the gift of fate must come at a price."
"Shen Zhaoxi actually wanted to take action against my Su Sui. Just killing him is a bit too light. But I know that I cannot recognize Su Sui and Hui Hui's family for the time being. If Xu Xiayan wants it, then I will give it to her. I will make all of you jealous of her and make you think that I believe it. All of you are not good people. Xu Xiayan has blown you all up. If it is used on Su Sui, even if I have the ability, I can't afford such a small risk. I can't let people pay attention to Hui Hui's family."
"I failed to protect Jingyi and Huihui back then. This time, I will find a way to completely eradicate them."
Hearing this.
Shen Muer's already thin body swayed in the wind, and she changed from laughing to smiling bitterly, "Grandpa, so from the beginning to the end, I was just a tool to protect Zhu Suisui. You let all the dangers be directed at me, and let me attract all the firepower, just to protect Zhu Suisui's family, right!"
Old Lady Shen: "Yes."
Shen Muer cried and fell to the ground, "But I, but I really thought you loved me, but I didn't expect that I was just a chess piece. No matter who I was with, I was a chess piece. I was wrong. I shouldn't have been soft-hearted towards you. I should have taken action against you myself. From the beginning to the end, only the second wife was nice to me."
"You asked for it yourself. If you weren't selfish and wanted to cling to glory and wealth, how could you have come to this point?" Old Lady Shen looked at Shen Muer coldly. She no longer had the doting look she had before, and even had a bit more disgust. "You hurt Sui Sui, and it was your honor to be able to block the bullet for Sui Sui. Even if you attacked me personally, it would only be an extra violation of the law. Do you think you can get away with it? As for what you said, only Shi Yinhua treated you well..."
Old Lady Shen thought Shen Muer was naive and ridiculous. "Do you think Xie Wenbo really listened to Shen Zhaoxi and Shen Ao'er? He had already gone to Shi Yinhua. She asked the third house to deliberately find Xie Wenbo to deal with you. In fact, she knew everything. Xie Wenbo hated you, Shen Zhaoxi and Shen Ao'er. In this way, he could catch all three of you in one fell swoop. When Shi Yinhua really got the wealth of the Shen family, she would naturally find a way to get Xie Wenbo out. This is what she promised Xie Wenbo. After that, as a discarded pawn, you will really die."
This is a story of a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it.
The final person behind the scenes was Shi Yinhua.
Her plan could make Old Lady Shen feel sorry for Shen Muer and dislike the Third House, and could also make Shen Muer hate the Third House extremely. While the two sides were fighting, she would just watch from the other side and become the ultimate beneficiary.
If Old Lady Shen hadn't known long ago that Shen Muer wasn't real, and if she had used the same trick against her, Shi Yinhua might have succeeded.
It's just a pity.
Old ginger is still spicy.
