Chapter 8: Pretend
After figuring out the key, Old Lady Wang instantly felt more confident. Meeting Lu Yao's gaze, she sneered and cursed, "This is what happens when you displease me. Humph, you deserve a beating. Don't even think about extorting a single penny from my Shen family!"
Shen Yanrong ignored her and pressed the wound without easing his grip, fearing that a tremor in his hand might cause more blood to flow.
"Are you okay?" Although he asked this, he also knew that his wife was in a very bad condition.
He glared at Old Lady Wang, his eyes bloodshot from anxiety and anger, his expression particularly ferocious: "You'd better pray that she's okay!"
The words squeezed out from between his teeth almost consumed all his strength.
Old Lady Wang was frightened by his appearance. She looked fierce but was actually weak. She cursed out of habit:
"Who the hell do you think you are?"
"How dare you, the bastard born of a bitch, threaten me!"
"Shut up!" Shen Yanrong could no longer bear it: "If you have the guts, beat our whole family to death."
After saying that, he ignored the old lady and looked at Shen Tao who appeared here at some point: "Please ask for a doctor!"
“Why…”
"Mom, why are you here?" Shen Shiren, who came out after hearing the noise, interrupted the old lady and said, "What happened?"
"Son, you're here at last." Old Mrs. Wang finally grasped the main point and immediately began to tell the story in a rapid-fire manner.
Of course, the version that came out of her mouth must have been an upgraded version with black and white reversed and exaggerated.
Shen Yanrong seemed not to hear it. He was only concerned about his wife's health at the moment.
Lu Yao's current condition was indeed very bad. Not only did she have a splitting headache, but she also felt dizzy and her whole body seemed to have suddenly lost strength. She had to lean on the man beside her to barely avoid falling. Even so, Xin Yue in her arms was well protected by her.
When Xiao Yunhao saw his mother injured and bleeding so much, his eyes turned red with anxiety, but he was a man and could not cry.
He tried his best to control his emotions and said to his father, "Daddy, please put me down. I can protect myself and my sister."
He is no longer a child and cannot hold his parents back.
Chen Yanrong wanted to refuse, but when he met his son's determined eyes and thought that he really didn't have any extra hands at the moment, he had to put the child down and took little Xinyue from Lu Yao's arms.
But Xiao Xinyue refused to do it.
Her mother was injured to protect her. She was afraid of holding her mother back, so she had been holding her mother's neck against her chest, not crying or making a fuss, trying her best to reduce her burden. Now that she saw her brother standing at her parents' feet, she also wanted to follow him down to the ground.
Shen Yanrong was very worried.
No one knew better than him what kind of people in the Shen family were. Yaomei was already injured, and if the two children also met with misfortune because of him, he didn't know what he would do.
Lu Yao gave him a weak smile: "It's okay, don't worry."
After saying that, she comforted the two children and signaled Shen Yanrong to put them down. The latter was still worried, but he did as his wife asked, and did not forget to remind his brother to take good care of his sister.
Over there, the old lady finally finished her performance and turned around to see the bitch covering her wound with one hand and sneering at her with the other.
"Look, look," she said, covering her chest with one hand and pointing at Lu Yao with the other. She turned to Shen Shiren and said, "You deserve to be beaten to death for being so disrespectful to your elders!"
Shen Shiren glanced at Lu Yao indifferently, without a word of concern, but instead shifted his gaze to Shen Yanrong: "Now that you're back, behave yourself and stop causing trouble."
He caused trouble as soon as he came back. If it weren't for his son, he would never want to see this person again in his life.
Chen Yanrong had become accustomed to the other party's disregard and partiality towards him. He sneered: "Who do you think wants to come here?"
If he hadn't been threatened and they wanted to confirm what these people wanted to do, he wouldn't have wanted to come even if they invited him.
"You!" Shen Shiren was choked. He was used to bossing this man around and beating and scolding him at will, but he finally held back at the critical moment.
No mistakes can be made before the dust settles.
Lu Yao felt that her health was getting worse and worse. She forced herself to look at
Chen Yao clearly felt that her condition was getting worse and worse. Her head felt like it was about to explode. She forced herself to look at the Shen family members and said, "What a Shen family! Haha..."
Before she could finish her words, she couldn't hold it in any longer and fainted.
"Sister Yao!"
"mother!"
"Mother!"
The father and his two sons were frightened by Lu Yao. They wanted to wake her up, but they were worried about causing a bad influence on her. Shen Yanrong carefully held her in his arms and shouted angrily, "Where's the doctor?"
The servants, including Chen Tao, looked at each other in bewilderment. Without their master's arrangement, they did not dare to act on their own.
None of the Shen family members could recover from the shock Lu Yao had brought them. The woman in the scene just now looked like a ghost crawling out of hell, eerie and terrifying. Even though she had closed her eyes and fainted, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine whenever she thought of that scene.
Wang Yalan was the first to come to her senses and quickly made arrangements: "Go get a doctor!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but worry: "This child is in such poor health, maybe he has some hidden illness. I must ask the doctor to take a good look at him later."
The implication is that the sudden fainting must be due to her own problems and has nothing to do with the old lady.
"This body is indeed in poor condition," Shen Shiren nodded. "Tell the doctor to take a closer look and don't be stingy with any herbs you need."
These people expressed their concern and worry, but no one really cared about the life or death of an outsider.
It’s not that she doesn’t care. After all, if something really happens, it will have some impact on the Shen family’s reputation. In addition, the plan has not yet been implemented, so Wang Yalan specifically instructed to find the best doctor.
"Sister Yao, sister Yao, wake up!"
"Mother, please wake up..."
"Mother, please wake up quickly..."
The three of them called out to Lu Yao anxiously, but the person in Shen Yanrong's arms showed no signs of waking up.
Wang Yalan frowned: "I don't know when the child will wake up, and staying here is not a solution."
Shen Shiren was silent for a moment: "Take him to the study."
There was a soft couch there, where he would lean on and rest for a while when he was tired from reading or working.
Wang Yalan was a little unhappy when she heard the other party's arrangement. That soft couch was where her cousin usually rested, and she rarely had the chance to enjoy it.
only,
Thinking of the important event that was about to happen to the doctor and his son, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Humph, this little bitch got a bargain.
Old Mrs. Wang hadn't recovered from this series of unexpected events. Seeing her son and daughter-in-law hastily making arrangements, she frowned and said, "Are you pretending?"
How much strength can an old lady like her have?
Humph, he must be pretending!
Hearing the two children crying, she became even more agitated and screamed!
Damn!
