"I didn't say anything. It was obviously Shen Shiyi who deliberately embarrassed me. She didn't show any courtesy to me, her mother, in front of so many people."
Mrs. Shen felt uncomfortable and panicked. Isn't it just that he is a little bit good at fortune telling? What's the big deal? It's not his job!
If Shen Shiyi is really that powerful, how come he only helped the Gu family make a comeback? Maybe it was just a coincidence. I really don’t know what those wives were thinking to be so obsessed with him.
"I'll let Shi Yi move back home soon. Please treat her well. Even if you have to pretend, please act like one. She'll be getting married soon, so you'll just have to bear with her for a while."
Father Shen exhorted, and he was still confident about bringing Shen Shiyi home.
Madam Shen didn't say anything, but this meant she was reluctant to acquiesce.
Shen Huai turned around and left. He completely disagreed. Dad was thinking of letting his sister come back to get married. No matter how he looked at it...
"Chen Huai! Where are you going? Come back to me immediately!" Father Shen was very angry at his son's behavior. How could they be so ignorant?
Shen Huai acted as if he didn't hear anything and walked further and further away. In fact, he didn't leave the banquet, but just walked around, worried that Shen Shiyi would be tricked into going back and getting married.
Shen Huai couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. At first, he hated Shen Shiyi coming home, thinking that there was another person at home competing for his favor.
But later on, I gradually felt that Shen Shiyi was not that annoying.
But he didn't expect that his parents' purpose in bringing his sister back was not simple from the beginning.
He stayed in the corner of the banquet for a while, and suddenly found that Shen Shiyi had also escaped from the crowd and sat in a corner. Shen Huai stood up and walked towards her.
"Hey, don't go back to the Shen family, do you hear me?"
"I heard it." Shen Shiyi didn't even raise his eyelids, his fingertips sliding on the phone.
Shen Huai actually wanted to tell Shen Shiyi that he didn't hate her, but he didn't know how to start with her right in front of him. "How are your grandparents?"
"Good."
"Let's go back and see them together next time we have a chance. I haven't been back for a long time." Shen Huai felt like he was just trying to get close to them.
"You reply yourself." Shen Shiyi still didn't give him a look, as if it was just a casual reply.
Shen Huai couldn't hold his temper any longer, "Shen Shiyi, do you have to talk to me like this?"
"What else do you want me to say?" Shen Shiyi finally stopped the phone in his hand and turned his head to glance at him.
"Just... just like... in short, be more sincere, don't be so perfunctory!" Shen Huai had just seen Shen Shiyi treat others. Although he was also very cold, he was also polite. He would look at the other person and smile.
"Get lost." Shen Shiyi looked straight into his eyes, his voice sweet and distant.
This time it was truly sincere.
Sincerely tell him to get lost.
Shen Huai felt a pang of pain in his heart. Has their relationship become so bad that they are not even qualified to sit together and chat?
He stared at Shen Shiyi, feeling aggrieved.
Shen Huai hoped that she could say something nice, or at least look kinder, otherwise he really didn't know how to continue the conversation.
While the two were in a stalemate, the short-sighted second young master of the Fang family ran over. The boy, who was only six years old, was wearing a suit and a bow tie, and his cute little face was white and chubby.
"Sister Shi Yi, you're here too. My mom and the others are playing mahjong and need one player. Do you want to come?"
"Go, let's go." Shen Shiyi stood up decisively and reached out to hold the child's hand.
There are so many people at the party, I’m afraid of bumping into someone.
It was too late when Fang Ruoxuan walked over. He saw his younger brother being held by sister Shi Yi, and for the first time he felt that his younger brother was an eyesore!
He runs so fast and he has to hold Sister Shi Yi's hand. He really stands out!
"Sister Shiyi, can you please hold brother's hand too? Otherwise, brother will get lost and we won't be able to find him!" Fang Ruojie showed his white little teeth and spoke in a baby voice.
"Okay." Shen Shiyi looked at Fang Ruoxuan, who was about the same height as him, and reached out to hold his sleeve. "Follow closely, don't get lost."
"Yeah!" Fang Ruoxuan nodded vigorously, and suddenly looked at his brother with pleasing eyes.
Fang Ruoxuan kindly reminded: "Sister Shi Yi, my mom is very good at playing cards, you'd better not play with her."
His stepmother, who is not doing her job properly, does nothing but go shopping and play mahjong. She is not responsible at all, and his father even asks them to take care of her.
"It's okay, just playing for fun." Shen Shiyi chuckled. That's great, she was interested.
"Come on, Sister Shi Yi, go for it~" Fang Ruojie clenched his free hand into a fist and made a forward motion.
"OK."
Shen Huai sat in his original position, looking at the backs of the three of them, even talking and laughing.
He couldn't help but start to feel dazed. If he hadn't rejected Shen Shiyi at the beginning, the person calling Shen Shiyi sister now should be him, not two outsiders.
For the first time in his life, he felt regretful and annoyed, and he didn't even know how to make amends.
Several people came to play mahjong, and several wealthy ladies, including Mrs. Fang, were starting to doubt their lives after losing so much.
“Miss Shen is really amazing!”
"I didn't expect Master Fang Ye to be able to tell fortunes and even play mahjong."
"Mrs. Fang, you're not the winner now. If you lose so much, you'll be scolded by your husband when you get home, right?"
"I am convinced of my defeat to Shi Yi. This little money is nothing. My husband is not that stingy." Mrs. Fang lifted her hair and smiled nonchalantly.
"Everyone knows that being a stepmother is not easy. This way, you don't have to give our share of the money, and it will be easier for you to explain to your husband when you go back."
"yes."
The two of them had lost to Mrs. Fang many times, and they were very happy that they could finally get some revenge this time.
"Mr. Fang is a kind man, so he won't argue with Mrs. Fang about this. But Mahjong is for fun, and since neither of you wants any, I don't need my share either."
Shen Shiyi didn't understand other people's family affairs, but he didn't want Mrs. Fang to feel embarrassed when she returned home because of this.
"Master Fang Ye, you may not know this, but Mr. Fang is probably not as well off as you might think. A while ago, Mrs. Fang's arms, thighs, and neck were all covered in... marks from beatings."
The lady sitting next to Shen Shiyi lowered her voice and spoke in Shen Shiyi's ear.
Mrs. Fang raised her eyebrows and couldn't hear what they were saying, but she readily took out the money she had lost from her bag and pushed it forward.
"Don't worry, the three of you can take it. If my husband gets mad at me just because I lost, then he won't have to sleep in the room anymore."
"Yeah, Dad is scary to Mom! Last time he was even locked out of his room in the middle of the night!"
Little Fang Ruojie's excited baby voice carried a hint of gloating.
Daddy always spanks his butt, he doesn't like his daddy!
The stepmother is good. She will secretly take him to eat snacks! The stepmother can also control the father.
The child's voice was so loud that most people at the scene looked over.
Mr. Fang was locked up by Mrs. Fang... locked outside?
Zun's fake beep!
“!!!”
Before Fang Ruojie could continue speaking, a pair of big hands picked him up.
Mr. Fang was just discussing cooperation nearby. When he heard his son's expression as if he couldn't wait to tell the world about his embarrassing story, he immediately walked over with a sullen face.
"Fang Ruojie, you'd better be quiet now. I'll deal with you when we get back."
