Li Zhiyuan furrowed his eyebrows and sensed an oddly unspeakable tension between Shen Qianshu and Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan’s eyes stopped at Shen Qianshu. A tinge of resentment could be seen in Shen Lin’s eyes, but it disappeared quickly. She smiled and said, “Mr. Li, you may not know, but Qianshu is my younger sister. She knew Xuan a long time ago.”
“Younger sister?” Li Zhiyuan was surprised. Shen Lin was an only child, the princess of the Shen Family. A younger sister was never heard of.
Shen Lin covered her mouth andughed. If not for the presence of Lin Xuan, she would not pretend to be such an elegant and gracefuldy and prove that she was not theplex Shen Lin from high school. She would never have acknowledged the rtionship between her and Shen Qianshu.
But she knew Shen Qianshu was arrogant and would not acknowledge anything.
“Ms. Shen, how funny. I’m an only child. I don’t have an elder sister.”
Shen Lin smiled and did not exin further.
Lin Xuan’s warm face was full of gloom. “If not for your disgraceful behavior, why would you be kicked out of the Shen family?”
Shen Qianshu clenched her fist. <i>Disgraceful behaviour?</i>
From what she could remember, Lin Xuan was a kind man who spoke softly. He often looked after her and defended her since they were young. No matter how troublesome she was, he always smiled at her. Whenever she caused big trouble, he would be behind her, giving her support. Even if Shen Lin returned home, his attitude towards her never changed.
“Mr. Lin, treating ady like this in public isn’t very gentlemanly of you huh?” Li Zhiyuan’s face darkened. He did not like the way Lin Xuan looked at Shen Qianshu at all. It was too... bare and filled with disgust.
Yet, in the disgust, there were feelings.
“Brother Xuan, years have passed. Don’t say that about my sister. She was ignorant when she was young. She was cheated.”
“If she could do it, why can’t I speak about it?” Lin Xuan sneered and looked at Shen Qianshu. “Once she graduated from high school, she had a huge bulge on her stomach, and she gave birth to an illegitimate child. If that wasn’t disgraceful behavior, then what was it? The child doesn’t even have a father. She dated many men one after another. Am I wrong, Shen Qianshu?”
The surrounding crowd started getting in an uproar and pointing at Shen Qianshu.
Giving birth to an illegitimate child in high school. A messed up private life. At that moment, all the criticism was on Shen Qianshu.
Li Zhiyuan was astonished. <i>Wasn’t Tong Hua adopted by Shen Qianshu?</i>
<i>How did he be her biological son?</i>
Shen Qianshu took a deep breath. Back then, Lin Xuan found out that she was pregnant, and the two got into a conflict. She fell and was sent into the hospital for days. Fortunately, the child was not injured. Other than Xiaojuan, nobody knew about her difficulties at birth and the death of the child. Until she adopted Tong Hua, the Shen family and Lin Xuan thought that Tong Hua was her biological son. But why would it matter?
She and Tong Hua, or her biological son. What was the difference?
The stall owner furrowed his eyebrows, wanting to ask them to leave. Shen Qianshu had been her customer and money bag for years. He could not care less about her private life, but he just purely hated the man and thedy. The man kept attacking Shen Qianshu while thedy kept pretending to be a nice person, but in reality, she was adding fuel to fire.
“Brother Xuan...” Shen Lin held Lin Xuan’s hand pretentiously. Her heart was filled with rage and envy.
This always happened. Whenever he met Shen Qianshu, Lin Xuan would have a disposition as graceful as the luster of jade, critical and easily angered.
He could not forget Shen Qianshu.
On her bed, he always screamed Shen Qianshu’s name.
<i>What’s so good about Shen Qianshu?</i>
She was just a random child who took away fifteen years of her life.
“Brother Xuan, don’t scold sister like that...”
