Mr. Shen recounted his crimes one by one as if he was atoning.
LiShuang felt a little sour in her throat.
She knew too well the feeling of being abandoned, and she used her last bit of rationality to accuse ShenJi.
"What you thought was protection was nothing more than him almost dying the day he was kicked out."
Mr. Shen leaned his head back with tears in his eyes.
"This is something I didn't expect. I didn't expect that I would educate someone like ShenYuci."
"Later I sent people to look for him, but they couldn't find him..."
"I have been looking for him for many years, until he became famous in Fengcheng. I know what that old Zhuge is planning, and I also know that ShenJi will come back to seek revenge on me sooner or later..."
Old Master Shen lowered his head deeply, like an old child who had done something wrong, and slowed down his tone.
"I also know that the Shen family will not tolerate ShenJi, so I cultivated the Jing family ten years ago."
"ShenJi knows that I am doing this..."
"You're wrong again." LiShuang stood up and didn't want to listen anymore.
His eyes fell on Mr. Shen, and his dry voice was low.
"Yun Xiang didn't even come to you when she was pregnant. She didn't worry about whether something happened to you, which means she has already guessed that you are lying to her."
"Zhuge Rong hates you, but he is sincere to ShenJi."
"Really?" Old Master Shen asked softly with a complicated tone, and it was unclear whether he was asking LiShuang or himself.
LiShuang pursed her lips: "You said you understand him, but with his quiet personality."
"Whether it's about what happened between you and his mother or what you did to him, he can just throw you into the sea."
"You don't really think that by pretending to be crazy and stupid and using the Shen family, you can make ShenJi show mercy to you and let you live forever, right?"
Mr. Shen's eyes trembled violently.
LiShuang didn't stay any longer and walked out of the room.
But when she walked out of the room, she saw ShenJi leaning against the wall.
He put one hand in his pocket, lowered his eyes, and held a cigarette in his mouth, with a long pile of ash.
LiShuang closed the door quietly, took his cigarette with her fingertips and put it out. She saw him slowly raise his eyes, and when their eyes met, she raised her hand and touched his head, letting him lean on her shoulder.
She spoke softly in his ear.
"Each of us eavesdropped once, so we're even."
ShenJi chuckled, took out his hand and hugged her tightly in his arms.
A beautiful, brave, smart, special, understanding woman who embodies all the best qualities.
How could he not love?
"LiShuang." ShenJi leaned his head against her neck, gently rubbing the hair on the back of her neck with his palm. His voice was soft and gentle.
"Wait until you calm down, wait until you start to like me a little bit."
"Can you stay with me forever?"
The pious and humble tone made LiShuang's fingertips on his back tremble slightly, and her heartbeat skipped a beat, then the rhythm became heavier and faster.
She sniffed the faint scent of Chinese medicine on him and pulled her lips lightly.
"I've already told you, it depends on your performance."
Chu Xi saw this scene as soon as he turned upstairs. He hid reflexively, took a sneak peek, and then tiptoed downstairs without disturbing them.
A person was holding his cheek in a daze.
Shuangshuang harvested sweet love.
Very nice.
——
Another peaceful night's sleep.
It was already the second day since ShenYuci completely lost contact, and even the old man disappeared from the Shen family.
Shen Guang was extremely anxious, and Hua Xiaolian was wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
"What a bunch of rubbish! Can't even find a single person!"
Shen Guang angrily smashed the cup: "Cry, cry, cry, all you do is cry. If you can't help, can you please stop bothering me!"
Zhong Wen rushed over and saw this scene, he didn't know how to start.
When Shen Guang saw him coming, he put his hands on his hips and yelled.
"If you have something to say, just say it. What are you standing there for!?"
Zhong Wen nodded respectfully: "It has been confirmed that the ship that was reported to have an accident the night before yesterday belonged to Mr. Shen... and the people on it have been confirmed dead."
"What!" Hua Xiaolian slammed her palm on the sofa, she couldn't catch her breath, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Shen Guang fell heavily on the sofa behind him, his eyes panicked.
"How is that possible?"
"How could he be so fine..."
Shen Guang stepped forward and grabbed Zhong Wen by the collar: "Why would he go out to sea? How could the ship have an accident? Who did it? I ask you who did it!"
He was so emotional that Zhong Wen almost fell when he was pushed away by him. He barely stood up with his head down.
"I don't know, we need to investigate slowly."
"Still taking your time to investigate?" Shen Guang glared with his red eyes, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
"Silence?"
He murmured something between his lips and slowly clenched his fists.
Who dares to say?
It was undoubtedly silence.
Shen Guang lowered his voice: "Have someone pay attention to ShenJi's movements, and don't miss any details that can be caught!"
Zhong Wen nodded respectfully again: "Yes."
It was also that afternoon that HeiFeng walked into the quiet villa.
"Second Master."
"Shuangshuang!" The first thing MaoAnan did was to find LiShuang.
ShenJi sat on the sofa, put down his phone and turned his head. He was blocked by the tall black peak and soon a wheelchair slowly appeared from behind him.
"Aji."
LiShuang sat opposite and raised her eyebrows slightly.
[Are wheelchairs the only means of transportation for people here? I will arrange one for you when I get old. ]
BaJie: [Are you polite? ]
ShenJi was so disturbed by her inner voice that he couldn't even follow her emotions, so he stood up and walked over.
"Godfather."
LiShuang felt it would be awkward not to stand up, so she stood up and looked at the man in the wheelchair.
He has silver-gray hair, deep eye sockets, some darkness under his eyes, and slightly downward corners of his lips. He looks very fierce when he is not smiling.
Zhuge Rong also cast his gaze towards LiShuang, with a serious expression.
"She looks good."
LiShuang: "?"
"You have good taste, too."
[Oh, after all, I am old now, I am talkative, and I only say things that everyone knows. ]
BaJie: [That's right!]
ShenJi: "..."
Zhuge Rong added: "Sharp-tongued."
LiShuang frowned and replied quickly: "You are also in good health."
Zhuge Rong: "You!"
He was in a wheelchair and almost died, who was she mocking?
LiShuang tilted her head and raised her eyebrows: "Me?"
[I have healthy arms and legs, so why should I be afraid of him who is in a wheelchair? ]
BaJie: [That's right!]
Zhuge Rong really couldn't do anything to her and looked at ShenJi fiercely.
"Is this the person you're looking for?"
Before ShenJi could defend himself, LiShuang spoke up to intercept him.
"So you knew he was the one who approached me? I haven't even agreed to him yet. If you have any objections and you insist on discussing it in front of me, don't blame me for abusing the elderly."
ShenJi hurriedly nodded to Zhuge Rong to make amends: "Well, I haven't caught up with her yet."
It was already difficult to catch up, and now it is even more difficult.
The three of them looked at each other.
"Humph." Zhuge Rong snorted coldly and cursed ShenJi in a low voice: "It's useless. I can't even catch up with anyone."
LiShuang: "?"
[I now know who ShenJi learned this stubborn and arrogant attitude from. ]
Shen·Deadly Awkward and Tsundere·Ji: "?"
Scold him again?
Awkward and tsundere?
BaJie: [...] Awkward and tsundere?
[I've said before that two kinds of people can sleep in the same bed. You don't even know what kind of person you are...]
ShenJi felt relieved after hearing what BaJie said.
If you put it that way...
Well, he doesn't know it either.
Zhuge Rong was sitting in a wheelchair. He didn't like being pushed, so he drove the wheelchair himself. He approached LiShuang, raised his loose eyelids to look at her, and handed over the velvet box that had been on his legs.
"Half of Fengcheng belongs to my Zhuge family."
"I was widowed at an early age and never remarried. I will never allow a traitor to appear in my family! This is your compensation. When you achieve your goal in the future, this will also be your confidence."
