169. Chapter 169 Countdown to Leaving High School Twelve
Shen Shuocheng was wondering why Gu Chen was so indifferent to his wife. Hearing his adopted daughter's question, which was not as gentle as before, he pulled his face and shook off Fan Yuyan's hand, walked out and said solemnly: " Where has the normal upbringing gone, talking to my sister...to my classmates like this?"
According to their birthdays, Gu Chen is exactly two months older than Shen Xiyue.
Shen Xiyue, who was anxious for the moment, didn't expect her adoptive father to arrive in the classroom early, and her heart sank.
He immediately put away the evil look on his face, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes. When he looked up again, his watery almond eyes were filled with tears, and he whispered softly, "Dad..."
He looked at Shen Shuocheng sadly, and his adoptive mother's face flashed from the corner of his eye.
Fan Yuyan just shook her head slightly, walked to Shen Shuocheng and stood meekly, without saying a word.
"Dad,...Mom." She lowered her head, her long hair smoothly tucked behind her ears, revealing her still red and swollen face.
It was originally gone, but when she was venting her anger on Zhao Juan in Gu Suo just now, she heard her adoptive father and adoptive mother coming over, and they slapped her twice in the face before running over.
It was during this time that Gu Chen arrived first.
When she cried, Fan Yuyan's heart clenched.
She felt particularly close to this adopted daughter when she first saw her. Every time she saw her crying, it was like a stab in her heart.
When his eyes fell on her red and swollen face, Fan Yuyan's eyes darkened, "Who hit you!"
"Mom..." Shen Xiyue whimpered and trotted, throwing herself into her adoptive mother's arms with a weak face, her tears of grievance falling like rain, "It's Gu Chen, it's Gu Chen..., she was beaten I, beat me in front of all my classmates."
For some reason, Shen Xiyue always felt that her adoptive mother would definitely help her, instead of... helping Gu Chen.
Shen Shuocheng is kind to his adopted daughter, but there is still a little distance between him and his biological daughter.
At the beginning, he was not satisfied at all with taking his four-year-old adopted daughter from his sister-in-law. However, his deceased wife was not healthy and could not have children, and he had no choice but to accept the idea of having a child by his side.
More than ten years have passed, but I still have some feelings for him.
Hearing this, he glanced at Gu Chen in surprise, who had not yet left, and said calmly: "Gu Chen is courteous and dignified in his advances and retreats. How can he hit you without any complaint or reason? You, on the other hand, have been pampered since you were a child, and you will do it if you don't get what you want. It's just crying, okay, tell me clearly what's going on first."
His eyes turned warm to Gu Chen and he said, "Uncle, I'm here to say sorry to you on behalf of Xiyue. She is used to being a spoiled child. I hope you can forgive me for anything wrong."
This remark made Shen Xiyue's heart go cold. A sinister look flashed across her face. She raised her head and looked at her adoptive father pitifully. She timidly said sadly: "Mom, did dad say that I lied to him?" ?Dad... doesn't he want me anymore? Does he not want me anymore..."
She cried so much that Fan Yuyan's heart was broken, and she consoled her: "Gu Chen grew up in the countryside, and his lawless temper gave everyone in the village a headache. You have always been gentle and kind, how could you lie to your father?"
His eyes swept over Gu Chen inadvertently, and with a hint of gloom, he said gently to Shen Shuocheng: "Zhuocheng, look how scared Xiyue was. Poor child, his face was slapped by Gu Chen. Swollen."
"Ms. Fan, why don't you ask her why she was beaten?" Gu Chen laughed, and the cold smile spread to the indescribable coldness in his eyes, and he said in a long and clear voice: "That's right, you She is Shen Xiyue's mother, so she naturally helps her child. Ms. Fan, I don't think you are a brainless woman, why don't you ask your daughter why she was beaten first."
