Chapter 12: Did the two of them once spark a flame of love?



After Shen Ruoyi finished speaking, she thought her words were extremely sharp and perfect.

But when she looked at Shen Wenran, who was still lying on the bed in front of her, her expression changed from indifference to seriousness.

She stood up and looked at Shen Ruoyi with pleading eyes, saying, "Sister, how could you think like that? No matter what, I am his wife. How did I become the other woman?"

Her teary-eyed appearance made her think that the woman had taken the wrong medicine.

Just as she was wondering what was going on, she heard her mother's voice behind her.

"Ruoyi, how could you say that about your sister?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Ruoyi trembled instantly.

Mom...why is she here?

Immediately, she realized that this was Shen Wenran's scheme to force her to say those words so that her mother would hear them.

"Mom, that's not what I meant."

She was somewhat panicked, but then a thought struck her and she said, "Mom, you'll know if you look at the recent news. I think you also know that it was my sister who insisted on marrying into the Lu family."

Zhao Lingrou remained silent.

Indeed, it was her daughter who insisted on marrying Lu Jinghuai, even though he was in a vegetative state.

Now that this man has woken up, he's having an affair with some childhood sweetheart.

She was a woman too, a wife to her husband, so how could she not understand her daughter's feelings?

Seeing that Zhao Lingrou remained silent, Shen Ruoyi continued to speak.

"Mom, how painful is it to marry someone who doesn't love you? Can't you feel it, Mom? I'm only saying this because my sister is so stubborn."

After Shen Ruoyi finished speaking, she wiped away her tears.

Shen Wenran was taken aback.

So, she lost this round?

Even if you lose the argument, you can't lose your spirit.

Shen Wenran took a few steps forward and, before Zhao Lingrou and Shen Ruoyi could react, slapped Shen Ruoyi across the face.

"You know I'm the older sister. Since I'm the older sister, when did it become your place to interrupt?"

After Shen Wenran finished speaking, he slapped Shen Ruoyi across the face again.

Shen Ruoyi was forced to retreat repeatedly by the two slaps, completely unable to defend herself.

Shen Wenran continued, "If our family had broken off the engagement because Lu Jinghuai became a vegetable, how would the Shen family have faced the consequences?"

"How is Dad supposed to face his business partners in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lingrou felt even more that her daughter had put in a lot of effort.

Assessing the situation, Shen Wenran suddenly threw herself into Shen Wenran's arms.

“Mom, when Lu Jinghuai became a vegetable, my sister refused to marry him. Besides, this marriage was originally mine. If I, his own daughter, don’t marry him, should I let that outsider marry him?”

Shen Ruoyi was taken aback.

Even though she knew she wasn't the Shen family's biological daughter, hearing Shen Wenran refer to her as an outsider was enough to make her grit her teeth in hatred.

Outsider? How is she an outsider?

She's lived here for over twenty years!

But when she looked at Zhao Lingrou, she realized that this mother had listened to what this woman had said.

Zhao Lingrou felt a sharp, piercing pain in her heart.

She patted her daughter's hand, her eyes also reddening: "It's all Mom's fault. Mom misunderstood you. Why didn't you explain it to Mom back then?"

Shen Wenran held Zhao Lingrou in his arms. Although his voice was trembling with sobs, his tears had already stopped.

"Mom, if I tell everyone, how are you going to handle this?"

Zhao Lingrou felt another pang of heartache.

Shen Wenran looked at Shen Ruoyi, who was staring blankly, with a smug expression.

—You counterfeit, you think you can fight me?

—At first, you were so afraid that I would steal this marriage away. But when you found out that Lu Jinghuai was in a vegetative state, you realized that you weren't the real daughter of the Shen family and weren't qualified to marry into it.

Why should you get all the good things?

As Lu Jinghuai arrived at the room door, he heard Shen Wenran's complaints.

While he was talking to his father-in-law downstairs, he was curious about what else Shen Wenran might reveal.

Sure enough, I heard something that defied all expectations again.

The woman in front of her, Shen Ruoyi, was dressed in a pure and lovely manner, her big eyes looking at Zhao Lingrou pitifully.

If Shen Wenran hadn't revealed the truth to him, he would have thought she was just an innocent and pitiful woman.

Indeed, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.

However, Shen Ruoyi was still not giving up.

Upon hearing Shen Wenran's words, she hatched another plan.

“But Mom, Mr. Lu has already woken up and is still having an ambiguous relationship with his first love. Since this marriage is unhappy, why not take this opportunity to end it?”

Upon hearing this, Shen Wenran was overjoyed.

—Good heavens, Shen Ruoyi, you've finally said something sensible!

—Yes, yes, Mom, please let us get a divorce and let me end this unhappy marriage!

—If I hadn't known back then that resistance was futile, I would never have married this bastard!

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinghuai knew he shouldn't have come up.

Little did they know that Master Shen would arrive at the door at that moment.

"Who says this marriage is unhappy? I think my son-in-law loves my daughter very much."

Shen Wenran immediately glanced over and saw Lu Jinghuai and his adoptive father Shen Yuancheng standing at the door.

—You like me a lot? Are you even my real father? Which eye of yours saw that this scoundrel likes me a lot?

She had just finished complaining when her cheap father started speaking again.

“I was downstairs chatting with my son-in-law, and he seemed distracted. I wondered what he was looking at, so I came up with him and saw him here.”
