Chapter 129 Pretending to be pitiful
Chapter 129 Pretending to be pitiful
Shen Xingzhou remained silent, sitting opposite Lu Ping, staring at her closely, which put great pressure on Lu Ping.
After Qin Feixue went upstairs, Shen Zhiye and Shen Tingyu came back. They went to the study upstairs, but came out after a while.
It seemed that she explained it very quickly.
Lu Ping lowered her head and hunched her body. She went back to the room, packed her luggage, and got into Shen Tingyu's car.
After the others left, Shen Xingzhou went upstairs.
"What's going on?" Qin Feixue looked at him and asked in a low voice.
Although there were no outsiders present, it was her first time experiencing such a thing and it was quite scary. She didn't even dare to speak loudly.
"A few days ago, when Second Aunt was walking on the street, she ran into Xu Qi. The two chatted for a while. Xu Qi felt sorry for her and said he had a way to help her, but he had to exchange wild ginseng for her."
"So simple?" Qin Feixue was surprised. She thought there was something complicated going on and Lu Ping was caught and threatened by him.
The result is a 'mutually agreed' deal.
Shen Xingzhou nodded: "Xu Qi is this kind of person. He can do it secretly or openly. If Second Aunt resists the temptation, he will do it secretly and think of other ways."
"Fortunately, Second Aunt wasn't stupid enough to steal Grandpa's."
"She can't steal it!" Shen Xingzhou said.
"Grandpa's room has a special life worker to look after it, plus Dr. Bai comes here often. If you try to steal Grandpa's pill, you're just asking for death."
"But isn't Second Aunt too easily tempted? She took the bait before the other person even started to exert his strength. If she knew Xu Qi had connections, she wouldn't have begged him to go over herself, right?"
Shen Xingzhou pinched Qin Feixue's cheek and said, "That's the truth."
Qin Feixue shook his hand away. This man just liked pinching his face more and more.
"Hey, there's another person here, you two should be careful!" Shen Xingran suddenly spoke.
"Although I'm not standing between you two, I'm not hiding either, am I? This room is so small, are you really going to ignore me?"
Shen Xingzhou was stunned. He did see Qin Feixue, but he automatically ignored her.
Qin Feixue treated her as if she didn't exist. She just pinched her face but didn't kiss or hug her. She knew Shen Xingran wouldn't mind.
"Where is Second Aunt now?" Qin Feixue asked.
"My eldest aunt sent her home and asked my second uncle to have a good talk with her."
"Then Second Uncle..."
"Dad told Grandpa about this, and Grandpa asked him to come to Kyoto as soon as possible to talk to him in person."
Qin Feixue nodded and stopped asking questions. What happened next was not her business. She had no right to make decisions, and there was no point in knowing too much.
This matter could be a big deal or a small one. Lu Ping's behavior is definitely not good for the Shen family. Shen Jianguo's health has been worse since the day he dug the yard. He wouldn't want the Shen family to be defeated by a daughter-in-law after his death.
At this time, Sun Yan exclaimed from downstairs: "Gu Shi! What's going on?"
Shen Xingran's eyebrows jumped and he quickly went downstairs and rushed towards the door.
But after a few steps she slowed down again.
Isn't it just jumping into the lake like her? What's the problem?
Qin Feixue was shocked when she saw her actions. She was afraid that Shen Xingran was saying one thing and thinking another. He said he wanted a divorce, but in fact he was reluctant to do so.
No matter what advice she gives her at this time, it will not end well.
But looking at her like this, I don’t know if she really wants to divorce, but at least she is very rational, and that’s okay.
When they went downstairs, they saw Gu Shi, who was dripping wet all over, like a drowned chicken.
Shen Xingran frowned, walked over and looked him up and down: "Go and take a shower if you have nothing to do, don't catch a cold."
After all, they are husband and wife. Seeing his pitiful appearance, I can't just turn a blind eye.
Seeing her worry, Gu Shi grinned: "Don't worry, I'm in good health and won't catch a cold."
Just after he finished speaking, he bent over and coughed a few times: "Cough...cough cough."
Shen Xingran immediately stepped forward to support him: "What's wrong? Did you choke on the water?"
"It's okay. I was just a little anxious when I was swimming back, and my feet got entangled by something. Luckily, you called out when you left... Speaking of which, I really want to thank you." Gu Shi said with a smile and a gentle look at Shen Xingran.
Shen Xingran was anxious and pulled him out: "Let's go to the hospital!"
Before she could even leave, Shen Xingzhou grabbed her by the hand: "You said that on purpose, to make my sister feel bad, right?"
Shen Xingran was stunned for a moment, then immediately let go of Gu Shi's hand and took two steps back. The pain in his heart disappeared in an instant and was filled with anger.
Actually lied to her!
"I didn't, Xingran! You believe me!" Gu Shi looked at Shen Xingran anxiously and said.
"Xingzhou wouldn't lie." Shen Xingran said calmly.
"I really didn't!" Gu Shi looked at the two of them, unable to defend himself.
"If your feet were really entangled by something, your leather shoes would have been lost when you were struggling to free them." Shen Xingzhou said, looking at his feet.
When a person's feet are entangled, he will try to break free by kicking the ground continuously. Leather shoes that do not grip the feet are the easiest to kick off.
There was not even a trace of mud on his shoes from when he came ashore, which showed that he had wiped them carefully before coming back.
Shen Xingran can swim and is smart, so he reacted without Shen Xingzhou's reminder.
Gu Shi froze and shrank his feet.
Shen Xingran stared at his shoes and laughed sarcastically: "So you can't even afford a pair of leather shoes to win back your wife!?"
She sneered and mocked herself, wondering how she could be so blind as to fall in love with such a man.
But her words did not sound the same to Gu Shi. He felt that Shen Xingran was mocking him, mocking his family background, mocking his family, and mocking the gap between them.
Although he came from a scholarly family, he was the eldest in the family and was taught from a young age to give in to his younger siblings in everything.
Also, because his mother always liked to send things from home back to her parents' home, the already well-off family soon became financially tight.
He was even worse, always following his younger siblings in everything. It can be said that he suffered a lot since childhood.
Leather shoes were something he never dared to think about when he was a child.
Because such good things must be left to my younger brother, otherwise he will be accused of not being like an older brother and even having to snatch shoes from my younger brother.
Later, he joined the army and the army provided him with leather shoes, so he could afford them himself and no longer had to envy others.
He polished each pair until they were shiny and kept them carefully in a box.
I only wear it when I'm with Shen Xingran or when I come to Shen's house.
"Yes, I was pretending. I just wanted you to feel sorry for me! But isn't it good that I'm pretending? Do you really want me to drown in the lake to make you happy?" Gu Shi shouted.
Shen Xingran's eyes turned red and he slapped him directly.
Gu Shi's head suddenly tilted to the side, and he stared at her in disbelief with bloodshot eyes.
In front of so many people, she beat him without caring about his face at all!
Shen Xingran regretted it right after she hit him. She was indeed impulsive, and that was because she was angry at Gu Shi! So she glared back, not to be outdone.
Gu Shi felt that he had lost face, but he couldn't do anything like hitting a woman, so he gritted his teeth and turned away.
