Chapter 1977
I was amused and helpless, how much Shen Yu really valued me as a sister in his heart, loving me so much that he could even disregard the people he hated.
At this moment, I realized that Shen Shu was also favored.
It was already five o’clock in the afternoon when I left the hotel, and there was only a grey Mercedes parked at the entrance. I walked straight over, and the moment I approached the body, the sound of the unlocking sounded, and I directly pulled open the passenger door and bent down to get in.
To my surprise, the driver was actually a woman.
“Nice to see you again Miss Shen, I’m Miller, you hired me back to protect yourself and your child before, after the accident, Mr. Shen left me behind, for the convenience of having someone available when you come back, all problems can come to me, no need to feel embarrassed.”
Miller gave a frank explanation, warm and valiant, very soldierly.
“Then I’ll trouble you to take care of it from now on.” I nodded nonchalantly and then buckled my seatbelt, “To Fu’s.”
The moment the buckle closed, a roar of the motor sounded, and the next second, the car rushed out as quickly as an arrow off the string.
In less than twenty minutes, it stopped steadily at the entrance of the Fu family villa.
“Here it is.” Miller calmly pulled out the key and turned off the engine.
I inhaled sharply, taking a long moment to calm down and slowly unbuckle my seatbelt.
“Do you need me to walk you in?” Miller asked calmly.
“No.” I waved my hand, “I’ll bring someone with me instead Fu Shen Yan will be suspicious, you go back and take care of An Xin.”
I opened the door and got out of the car.
I felt a little scared when I got a breath of fresh air, Miller’s car was too exciting, I didn’t dare to sit in it a second time.
I straightened my clothes and walked through the villa’s front door, only to collide head-on with Fu Shen Yan, who was walking out.
“Miss Shen?” Chen Yi saw me and called out in confusion.
Zhi’an, with his little head hanging and a listless look, heard this and immediately lifted his head happily and ran towards me.
“Mummy! I thought you didn’t want me anymore! I’ll call you mummy from now on, don’t leave me!” Zhi’an hugged my leg, his aggrieved voice was tinged with sobs, which was heartbreaking.
I hurriedly knelt down and calmed him down, “Silly boy, mummy just went out for a walk, how could she leave you behind, we agreed, right?”
But Zhi’an was still sad, frowning and thinking for a while, he held out the little thumb of his right hand, “The previous one didn’t make a hook, it doesn’t count, this time we have to make a hook!”
I laughed and reached out to make a deal with him, and only then did the little meatball’s face change from cloudy to sunny.
Seeing that he had changed into a clean tuxedo and was probably going to a party, I casually asked, “Is Zhi’an going out to dinner tonight?”
Before he could say anything, Fu Shen Yan’s dull voice came from above his head, “To see my father and mother, and you’re going too.”
Fu Shen Yan’s parents, that is, the Murong family.
This was not a bad way to go, was it?
Curving the corners of my mouth into a smile, I readily agreed, “Sure, I’ll go back and change my clothes, you guys wait.”
“No need.” Fu Shenyan called out to me, “Just be casual, there are no such rules.”
After saying that, he lifted his feet first and got into the commercial vehicle parked in the courtyard.
I shrugged my shoulders and didn’t dwell on it, taking Zhian with me.
I wanted to see what kind of ruthless character the Murong family, who had repeatedly tried to trap their own son and daughter-in-law to death, was.
Chapter 1978
In the carriage, I sat with Zhi’an in the back seat on the child seat and Fu Shen Yan in the front seat, both tacitly choosing to keep their mouths shut about the appearance of Shen Yu.
When Zhi’an and I were together, we had endless things to talk about, and as soon as we got in the car, we started sharing what we had seen at school.
While waiting for the red light, I suddenly thought of An Xin and interrupted him, asking, “Zhi’an, you don’t like all the kids at school, do you? So, if you had a younger sister who was also childish, would you hate her?”
“Of course not.” Without even thinking, Zhi’an blurted out a loud declaration, “I will always be there for my sister, protect her and not let her be bullied by others!”
The most childish tone of voice, saying the strongest words, could not help but make one look forward to the image of the two siblings getting along.
Smiling, he rubbed the top of his head and gave an affirmative look, “Zhi’an has grown up and is a man, great!”
Turning my head, I caught a glimpse of Fu Shen Yan surreptitiously sizing us up in the rearview mirror, and immediately averted my gaze when I noticed, and all I could see in the mirror was his cold, frosty face.
It was a condescending slight, and a silent warning.
Fu Shenyan didn’t seem to care that I had revealed An Xin to Zhi’an, or that he always had a plan for the custody of the two siblings.
Soon, it was time to arrive at Murong’s house.
Fu Shen Yan walked ahead, and Zhi An, holding me, followed behind him.
“Sir, young master.” The servants on either side greeted respectfully, but the hall was quiet, as if we had arrived early.
But walking in I realised that I was the one who had thought too simply.
All the Murong family members were there, sitting on the sofa in the living room, but not saying a word, reading the newspaper, swiping their phones, without any communication, the atmosphere was suffocatingly quiet.
When he heard footsteps, Murong Tianjiao was the first to raise his head and saw me at a glance, his eyes instantly became saber-rattling.
But Fu Shen Yan suddenly took a step sideways, directly between the two of us, just in time to kill a battle of the eyes.
Murong Tianjiao was defeated and her face immediately dropped, throwing her phone to the side and intertwining her hands in front of her chest in an impatient look.
Fu Shenyin directly ignored her actions and led us on inside without changing his face.
Just as we stood, we heard Murong Tianjiao’s gloomy voice, “Big brother, is it that you’ve been busy and confused all by yourself after driving me out of the company these past few days, today is a family banquet, not just anyone from unknown origins can come.”
Fu Shenyin remained unmoved and inclined his head to look behind him, before Chen Yi trotted over from the doorway carrying a pile of gifts.
“This is a small token of appreciation from the child’s mother for the two elders.” Fu Shen Yan said indifferently.
I looked confused, when did these things get prepared, did Fu Shen Yan guess that I would leave Shen Yu and come back to accompany him to the banquet?
When I thought of this, I looked at Fu Shen Yan again, my heart was complicated.
Murong Nanchuan didn’t even lift his eyelids, allowing Chen Yi to bow and carry the gifts, awkwardly turning into a statue.
At that moment, a refined male voice rang out, “We are all family, why do we have to be so formal, butler, why don’t you quickly put the things away under him.”
Only then did the steward come forward with trepidation and put the things away, and the atmosphere was instantly eased.
