In the end, Shen Xingwan didn't agree to cook, and Zhang was visibly unhappy.
Shen Xingwan didn't care so much, she wouldn't wrong herself anyway.
The next day, Shen Xingwan was reading in his small study room when there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Come in."
Su Jingyi walked in wearing pink clothes and looking fresh and tender with begonias on the April branches.
He looked at the small study room with a critical eye. There were many books densely packed on the bookshelf, and the decoration was very simple. There were a few unknown paintings hanging on the desk and tea table.
Even the flowers on display are defective and defective products, with a few flowers inserted inside.
There was no comparison in heaven or earth with her study in the Hou Mansion, and Su Jingyi was not happy or proud of it.
She didn't need Shen Xingwan to greet her and sat down on her own, "You are so lucky. When I was in the Shen family, I had trouble eating, but now you can live in the town and have your own study and yard."
Shen Xingwan was still arranging the books on the desk calmly, and said unequivocally, "Good luck? Maybe."
This heroine is really innocent and cute.
Shen Xingwan turned around and put the books in his hands on the bookshelf one by one. Then he sat behind the desk with his hands on the chair and said lazily, "Tell me, what do you want to do here?"
Su Jingyi smiled with a crooked smile on her lips, sweet and soft, with an innocent air.
"Mom is in a bad mood because of you, you know? You seem to mind me coming to the Shen family. Why are you afraid that I will take your place?"
His words are completely opposite to his appearance.
Shen Xingwan knocked on the chair a few times with his hand, "I'm more curious as to why you suddenly got involved. Don't tell me it's because of family ties. Do you believe it yourself?"
The smile disappeared from Su Jingyi's face, and she remembered her first confrontation with Shen Xingwan at the Hou Mansion.
The same goes for Shen Xingwan, who can always easily see through the most secretive side of her heart.
In that battle, Shen Xingwan was defeated by the Hou Mansion, and she didn't win well either.
What the old lady said to her, and the nuns' strict teachings in the following years, made her life not easy.
Su Jingyi reached out and brushed her hair around her ears, "Whatever you think, I just want to come back and have a look."
After Su Jingyi said this, she smiled sweetly, picked up the cold leftover tea on the table, and quickly poured it on herself.
"Sister, do you think my mother will believe me or you?"
After saying that, without waiting for Shen Xingwan's answer, he covered his face and ran out crying "woooooooooooooooo".
Oscar owes her a Best Actress.
Fat Meow squatted on the window and watched the whole process, "Is this the legendary White Lotus?"
Shen Xingwan, "You know quite a lot."
Fat Meow, "Huh, there's something I don't know about. What are you going to do next?"
"Nothing to do." Shen Xingwan calmly arranged his clothes and stood up.
She was also curious about how partial Mrs. Zhang would be. She thought that she had tried her best to be a considerate and sensible daughter in the past few years.
If this cannot bring a trace of family affection, there is no need to continue with some things. After all, she is not the one who was taken advantage of.
"Miss, the madam will let you go." The mother-in-law carefully probed her head inside.
"I know." Shen Xingwan said calmly.
Shen Xingwan slowly walked out of the study and walked towards the yard. He saw the aggrieved Su Jingyi crying in Mrs. Zhang's arms.
"Mom, I just want to have a good relationship with my sister. I don't want you to be unhappy because of this matter."
"I don't know why my sister doesn't like me. Is there something I did that wasn't good enough? I can change it..."
They say that children who cry get sweets, and this sentence is perfectly reflected in Su Jingyi.
In Mrs. Zhang's heart, Su Jingyi has always been a little one. She almost died when she was a child. She needs her protection. From childhood, whenever Su Jingyi acts coquettishly or cries, she will agree to anything.
Shen Xingwan has always been calm and smart, and has her own ideas. Sometimes Zhang even thinks that she is strong and scary when she is cold-faced.
"It's none of your business. Xingwan has a strong personality to begin with, so she's just taking her anger out on you." Mrs. Zhang comforted her.
"I'd better not come here in the future. My sister will be unhappy."
Mrs. Zhang touched Su Jingyi's back and said, "This is my mother's home and your home. You are always welcome. You can come whenever you want. You will always be my mother's daughter."
Shen Xingwan stood quietly not far behind them and listened to the whole process. The sun was obviously very warm on her body, so why did she feel so cold.
Even the woman who was working beside her couldn't help but look at Shen Xingwan sympathetically.
Who is the real daughter?
"Mom, do you have a problem with me?" Shen Xingwan said calmly.
Zhang visibly stiffened and looked back at her, "What's wrong with you? Why are you silent?"
Shen Xingwan still had the usual indifferent expression on his face, looking at Mrs. Zhang calmly.
Zhang felt a little guilty at first, and then an unknown fire arose in her heart.
"Apologise to your sister!"
Shen Xingwan tilted his head slightly and asked seriously, "When did I have a sister?"
"Sister, you really hate me!" Su Jingyi sobbed and cried even more sadly.
Shen Xingwan nodded, "I really hate you, so please don't hang around in front of me for nothing."
Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she was shaking all over, "Shen Xingwan, what are you talking about? You did something wrong and you still don't apologize."
"Of course I won't admit anything I haven't done." Shen Xingwan said calmly.
"How could I have a daughter like you..." Mrs. Zhang blurted out.
Shen Yu, who came out to refill his tea, witnessed the quarrel.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Shen Yu said helplessly.
Why has the atmosphere at home become chaotic recently? It is no longer the harmonious one it used to be.
Shen Xingwan suddenly smiled and said, "If you don't want it, you don't have to. Anyway, you don't lack a daughter. Don't you still have one in your arms?"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the courtyard.
Zhang's face turned angry, "You..."
Facing Shen Xingwan's emotionless eyes, all words were stuck in his throat.
Shen Yu scolded softly, "What are you talking about? Mom just said it casually."
Shen Xingwan's aura changed, and his oppressive eyes glanced at everyone, "Are you lying that you all know what you are doing and don't treat anyone else as a fool? Do I look easy to bully or do I have no temper?"
"Xingwan..." Shen Yu whispered.
"How you love her, pamper her, and treat her well is your business. I'm not interested, but don't treat me like a human being. Am I heartless? Or should I feel aggrieved?"
"She is your good sister and daughter, so what am I? Am I redundant?"
Shen Tang and Shen Xiaoguo stood at the door, listening to these words, they were stunned.
Shen Xiaoguo ran over alone, held Shen Xingwan's hand, and said anxiously, "Of course you are my sister, I said I will protect you!"
