Chapter 29 Beautiful women are restless
She didn't know if Sheng Li could understand her.
For a fleeting moment.
She felt that she had actually let go of her feelings for Sheng Li long ago.
Once a person lets go.
There is no such thing as love and hate, joy and evil.
The focus has shifted to the event itself, rather than solely targeting the individual.
"I want to walk alone, don't follow me," Wen Shuyi said.
Sheng Li didn't come along.
Wen Shuyi felt a little better.
As she turned the corner, she saw her adoptive father, Wen Hanbin, talking to Sheng Zongjie.
She didn't want to listen at first.
As she turned around, she heard the name of her biological father.
"Three years ago, I suppressed Qiao Tianhua's matter, but now an investigation team has come from above, and it can't be suppressed anymore. I've decided to retire early and settle abroad with Wei Jing. Even if they find out something, I won't be able to find out about him in China."
Wen Shuyi stopped in her tracks.
Three years ago, the investigation was suddenly halted, as it turned out that the adoptive father had interfered.
Sheng Zongjie followed up, "If we really investigate what happened back then, no one can escape responsibility. For the past three years, I've been investigating the person who made the whistleblower, and it seems..."
"What do you mean?" Wen Hanbin took a step toward Sheng Zongjie.
Sheng Zongjie lowered his voice, "The person who made this report seems to be related to Sheng Tingwang."
Are you sure?
Sheng Zongjie looked around to make sure no one was there, and then said, "That kid was there back then. He saw more than we can imagine. If he wanted to mess with us, it would be really troublesome."
"Isn't Sheng Tingwang a member of your Sheng family? What does it mean that he's turning around and accusing you?" Wen Hanbin asked, puzzled.
Sheng Zongjie wasn't entirely sure either.
Sheng Tingwang has many facets, and he can't see through any of them.
The two people behind them spoke softer and softer.
Wen Shuyi could no longer hear clearly.
Is Sheng Ting being presumptuous?
The deaths of my parents were not only related to the Sheng and Wen families.
It really is related to him.
No wonder he said three years ago that he would help her find out the truth about her parents' deaths in the earthquake.
It turns out he held the truth in his hands.
She really was a clown he manipulated.
Back in the hall.
Wen Shuyi was somewhat absent-minded.
From afar, she saw Li Jiangyan's mother, exchanging pleasantries with someone.
Given Mr. Sheng's status in the entertainment industry.
It's not surprising to see members of the Li family here.
Wen Shuyi walked over in small steps, wanting to greet her.
Before I even got close, I could hear Li Jiangyan's mother talking to several other aunts.
"I heard your son is dating the former daughter-in-law of the Sheng family. What do you think about that?"
Li's mother frowned helplessly and sighed, "I don't want to pick up things that other people don't want either, but my son is all grown up now, and my words don't carry as much weight anymore."
"Don't be confused. Wen Shuyi has lived in the Sheng family for two years and has already been slept with by Sheng Li. I heard that when she was in the Sheng family, she even seduced Sheng Tingwang."
Li's mother was shocked; this was the first time she had heard of this.
The Li family is a respectable family, after all. If they marry a daughter-in-law like this, people will laugh their heads off.
"Is what you're saying true?"
"Would we lie to you? Your Jiang Yan is good-looking, has a respectable job, is honest, and has never messed around with girlfriends. We just think it's a pity. We're not the kind of people who like to gossip."
Li's mother's face grew increasingly grim. "Could Jiang Yan be unaware of these things? If he knew, he probably wouldn't be dating her anymore."
"What does this young man know? I'm telling you, Jiang Yan's mother, you need to keep a close eye on her. In our circle of friends, reputation is extremely important. Why should we take a woman that the Sheng family doesn't want? So what if she's surnamed Wen? She's an adopted daughter we picked up; nobody cares about her."
Li's mother nodded.
She had never really thought highly of Wen Shuyi.
This girl is so beautiful.
A woman who is too beautiful, how can she stay still?
Her son was just temporarily bewitched.
"This is outrageous! How can a woman like that be worthy of my son? I really need to go home and have a serious talk with him."
Wen Shuyi took a step forward, but ultimately took it back.
She felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
Why is she treated like a rat in the street?
She clearly didn't do anything wrong.
Wen Shu also felt that there was little point in staying here any longer.
She then handed the birthday gift she had prepared to the family's nanny and left the Sheng family.
Hwaseong in summer.
It's always raining.
When we came out, the sun was shining brightly, but now, there's a sudden thunderstorm.
Too many rainy days in her life.
The day I was born.
The day my parents were buried after the earthquake.
The day I had an ectopic pregnancy.
And today...
Wen Shu also didn't bring an umbrella.
Walking along the birch trees by the roadside provides some shelter from the rain.
"Get in." A dark-colored car pulled up beside her, and the back window rolled down.
She saw Sheng Tingwang's face.
Wen Shuyi's gaze towards him was complex.
Her mind was filled with the conversations between her adoptive father and Sheng Zongjie.
Should she ask him?
If she asks, will he tell her?
A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting the small tree next to Wen Shuyi.
She was so frightened that she covered her head.
Sheng Tingwang quickly got out of the car, used his clothes to shield her from the torrential rain, and led her into the car.
"Zhang Lun, turn on the heater."
It's not actually cold.
Wen Shuyi was simply frightened.
She thought the lightning bolt would strike her, which would make her the chosen one.
"It's raining, why didn't you take a taxi? What if you get sick from the rain?" Sheng Tingwang looked very nervous and concerned.
Wen Shuyi glanced at him indifferently. "Old Master Sheng's birthday banquet isn't over yet, is it? Why aren't you with your wife? Aren't you afraid Old Master Sheng will be angry?"
"You're even worrying about me now," Sheng Tingwang chuckled.
Wen Shu was not worried about him.
I just felt a little annoyed by always running into him. "Is there something you need? If not, I'm getting off."
"I……"
Before Sheng Ting could finish his boastful words, his phone rang.
It was a call from the Sheng family's old residence.
Xu Chuyin fainted.
Tell him to go there immediately.
"I..." Sheng Tingwang looked hesitant, "Shu Yi..."
"Go ahead and do your thing." Wen Shuyi got out of the car.
He reached out and grabbed a handful.
They didn't catch it.
The rain was heavy.
She hugged herself and walked under the birch trees, thinking that lightning wasn't so scary after all.
If you really hit her with a chop.
She really did end it all.
The car turned around behind her.
Wen Shu felt a chill in his heart.
When love is placed on a scale, it becomes immediately clear which is heavier and which is lighter.
and so……
When a man is spouting sweet nothings, it's best to stay clear-headed.
After returning home, Wen Shuyi took a hot shower.
Li Jiangyan called her to inquire about her visit to the Sheng family today.
Wen Shuyi thought of his mother's words, "Jiang Yan, do your parents know about your relationship with me? What do they think..."
"I'm almost thirty, do I still need my parents' permission to date?" Li Jiangyan laughed, his voice cheerful. "Shuyi, did you...heard something today? My mom seems to have gone to see me, did you see her?"
"No, no, I didn't see Auntie." Wen Shuyi didn't want to stir up trouble in other people's families. "Brother Jiang Yan, at our age, we're dating with marriage in mind. I think you should ask your parents' opinion first. I think that's a sign of respect for me."
