Second floor, in front of the stairwell.
Jing Weiyang did not follow Shen Yu to the old man's study, but stopped and took a deep breath.
Shen Yu looked at her amusedly: "Is it that scary?"
Jing Weiyang glared at him, "Of course!"
She was almost scared to death!
Seeing the girl pouting and looking pitiful, Shen Yu smiled and hugged her: "Don't be afraid, as long as I'm here, no one can bully you."
Jing Weiyang pouted where he couldn't see, clearly disbelieving.
You can only say this now: when you meet the female lead, you'll realize how hypocritical the promise was.
Shen Yu had a smile on his refined and handsome face, but his eyes were dark and deep.
He knew why Madam Shen was acting this way today; it was probably related to the unpleasant meeting a week ago.
"If we don't want the Shen family to become a laughing stock, the best way is to divorce her before the public outcry escalates!"
Madam Shen softened her voice, "Even if you really like her, it doesn't matter. The Shen family doesn't mind keeping another kept woman, and An Rou won't mind either. An Rou is a sensible child; she's liked you since she was little. As long as you're willing to get a divorce, she won't mind..."
“But I mind,” he looked up, his eyes icy cold.
“I am Xiao Yang’s husband, and she is my wife. From the day I married her, I have been responsible for everything about her. Besides, I already know what you’re saying. Whether it’s true or false, I married her as a person. If anyone dares to use her to attack my wife, I will definitely not let them get away with it!”
Shen Yu opened his eyes. She would never know, nor did she need to know, these bad things. He would clear away all obstacles.
All she needs to do is happily be Mrs. Shen.
Mr. Shen looks very much like the man in the photo. Although his hair is white, he is in good spirits and looks radiant.
When Jing Weiyang and the others went in, he was admiring the wood carvings he had brought back from Europe.
If there's anything special about this wood carving, it's probably that he personally completed the first piece.
Upon seeing the two enter, he immediately became happy and invited them to come and watch together.
With Mr. Shen's discerning eye, he naturally wouldn't even notice something made by a child.
Jing Weiyang was different; she knew the "truth" from the book, and immediately began to flatter the old man, seemingly seriously but actually showering him with compliments.
The old man's smile never faded, and he chatted happily with her.
Shen Yu watched them from the side without saying anything.
Having earned enough goodwill points and realizing that the old man and Shen Yu had something to say, Jing Weiyang sensibly made an excuse to leave.
Grandpa Shen smiled and said, "Go ahead, tell the kitchen what you like, and have them make it for you."
Jing Weiyang smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Grandpa~"
But the moment the girl left and the door closed, the Buddha-like smile on Old Master Shen's face vanished, replaced by a stern expression as he glared at Shen Yu, exuding the imposing aura of a superior.
"You knew all along?"
Despite Old Master Shen's cold demeanor, Young Master Shen remained unfazed.
"knew."
Old Master Shen narrowed his eyes, suddenly became angry, and roared:
"They actually used a fake to deceive us! What do they take the Shen family for? I want you to divorce her!"
Shen Yu's face finally changed somewhat, and he reminded him, "Grandpa, don't forget, you and I chose this person together."
The implication is that even if there was a mistake, it wasn't solely her fault.
"So what if we chose them together? What I want is a wealthy heiress of equal social standing to be my granddaughter-in-law!"
