Chapter 23 A belt came flying at me.
"Look at what you're saying! You're becoming more and more outrageous. It's fortunate that we heard these words; if the Lu family had heard them, how could we have stayed in the Lu family?"
"Do we really have to work for their family?"
Shen Qianyu finally couldn't bear it any longer and spoke out what was on her mind.
"In this world, there are many jobs available, so why can't we choose the job we want?"
Shen Jiacheng still wanted to attack.
Shen Qianyu stared intently at him, looking fearless.
Shen Jiacheng didn't hit her, but pointed at her with his finger: "Fortunately, the Lu family didn't pursue the matter, otherwise we would have been expelled from the Lu family. Do you think we could face the Lu family for all these years of nurturing us, or the ancestors of our Shen family?"
Shen Qianyu remained silent.
She just found it ridiculous.
The idea that slavery was so deeply ingrained in their minds is completely illogical.
Shen Qianyu didn't want to talk about it. She just insisted on her own idea: "No matter what, I'll sleep here tonight. I've already spent the money. I'm not going back. You can go back by yourselves."
Just then, the receptionist ran over and said apologetically, "Ms. Chen, we are willing to refund your money. Please go back as soon as possible."
Shen Qianyu looked at the two people and knew that it must be related to them.
As long as they say it's an order from the Lu family, the front desk staff have no choice but to do it.
Shen Qianyu knew she couldn't implicate the front desk staff, so she grabbed her bag and walked out.
She showed no intention of getting into the car from outside.
Fang Hui caught up: "Shen Qianyu, what are you going to do if you're not going home?"
"I'd rather sleep on the streets with homeless people than go home. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Fang Hui didn't say anything. Two people came over and directly forced Shen Qianyu into the car, regardless of whether Shen Qianyu wanted to or not.
He simply closed the car door and drove back.
When they arrived at the Lu family's old residence, Shen Qianyu was even more surprised to find that Fang Hui had them escort her to Lu Xiuyuan's room.
Shen Jiacheng said apologetically, "Young Master, it's all my fault for disciplining my daughter. I've brought her back to you, so please do as you see fit."
Shen Qianyu and Lu Xiuyuan locked eyes.
Lu Xiuyuan frowned slightly, as if he felt that Shen Qianyu was becoming more and more unfamiliar.
"Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen, you should go back first. We'll handle our own affairs."
"yes."
Before leaving, Qian Hui didn't forget to say:
"You don't need to consider our feelings. If other servants do something wrong, they should be dealt with accordingly."
As soon as the two left, Shen Qianyu felt a deep sense of desolation.
What else can she hope for?
"If you had just come to dinner with me honestly, wouldn't this have been avoided? You've kept them up all night, constantly looking for you. They care about you so much, Shen Qianyu, I feel like you're getting a little too much lately."
Shen Qianyu never expected him to understand her, but at least he shouldn't say such things.
Indeed, as the young master of the Lu family, Lu Xiuyuan's sense of superiority was innate, and he would never know what she was really thinking.
This also meant that they were destined never to be together.
"Do whatever you want to do with me now."
Shen Qianyu remained expressionless, her face cold and distant.
Lately, their relationship has become less and less like that of a couple, and more like that of a couple who have broken up.
Lu Xiuyuan looked at her suspiciously: "Qianyu, what's wrong with you lately? I feel like something's off about you."
Shen Qianyu should be grateful to Lu Xiuyuan; at least he saw this.
"It's alright, it's getting late. Just tell me what you want to do, and I won't make any exceptions."
"You can be treated differently."
When Lu Xiuyuan said this, his eyes softened considerably.
Shen Qianyu felt extremely distressed.
He clearly doesn't love me, so why is he doing this?
"Alright, it's getting late, you should go back to sleep."
Shen Qianyu looked at him suspiciously: "You really don't intend to punish me?"
“It’s not a big deal. It’s normal for you to have a temper, but I still want to say that you’ve let your parents down. They were really worried about you when they couldn’t find you.”
Shen Qianyu remained silent.
"If you don't want to move in right now, you can go back to sleep."
Lu Xiuyuan's attitude towards her was so good that Shen Qianyu was at a loss for words.
She turned around and went back home.
I thought my parents were asleep, but they were both waiting in the living room.
Upon seeing her, Fang Hui quickly asked, "How did the young master deal with you? Why did you come back?"
Shen Qianyu looked at her with a complicated expression. "Young Master said he's not angry with me and doesn't plan to punish me."
"How can that be? If you do something wrong and we don't punish you, doesn't that mean you're getting special treatment? No way, I'm going to find the young master."
As the housekeeper and supervisor, Shen Jiacheng and Fang Hui are undoubtedly the best servants in the Lu family.
But they completely overlooked the fact that, as parents, they were incredibly cruel to her.
Shen Jiacheng pulled her back: "Don't go. The young master must be asleep at this time. We can't disturb his sleep."
Fang Hui then realized what had happened and quickly said, "Yes, yes, I almost forgot about that."
Fang Hui glanced at Shen Qianyu, then looked at Shen Jiacheng.
“Jiacheng, this matter must have been known by many people. The young master is good to our Qianyu because he remembers the kindness Qianyu showed him before, but we can’t do nothing, lest people use it against us.”
Yes, you're right.
Shen Jiacheng looked at Shen Qianyu: "Qianyu, the young master is indeed very good to you, that's because you helped him before."
But you must always remember that we are servants, and he is the master. If you make a mistake, the master won't punish you, but you must understand that you will still be punished if you do something wrong.
Shen Qianyu's body stiffened.
Shen Jiacheng and Fang Hui exchanged a glance.
Fang Hui went into their room.
When he came out again, he was holding a belt in his hand.
Shen Qianyu had absolutely no idea what they were going to do.
Fang Hui shouted, "Kneel down!"
Shen Qianyu did not move.
Fang Hui continued, "Didn't you hear me tell you to kneel down?"
Shen Qianyu had no choice but to kneel down.
Fang Hui glanced at Shen Jiacheng, who gestured for her to come over.
Fang Hui walked up to Shen Qianyu and gave her a very serious critique.
“Qianyu, the pain you feel is in my and your father’s hearts, but you made a mistake by making the young master follow you until so late. That’s your fault. The young master won’t punish you, but we must punish you. Today, we’ll teach you what you can and cannot do.”
A belt suddenly lashed out.
The pain was so intense that Shen Qianyu almost couldn't breathe.
