Shen Qiu had a natural hostility towards Shen Yuan. It was hard to explain why. In fact, Shen Yuan and Shen Qiu did not have much to do with each other, but Shen Qiu just did not like Shen Yuan. Perhaps some people were born enemies.
“Brother, if he really wants to harm me, no matter how well I hide, he can still sneak up to me and attack me. Besides, what can he do? Don’t worry. He’s a very cautious person and won’t kill me at this juncture.”
“Sister, you’re still young and don’t understand the danger of some things.” Shen Qiu was even more anxious. “Shen Yuan is not a good person. You’ll be at a disadvantage if you’re careless!”
“Brother, don’t worry.” Shen Miao looked at Shen Qiu. “If anything happens, I still have you, right?” She smiled coldly, but there was something she didn’t say to Shen Qiu.
In her previous life, Shen Qiu’s death was definitely not an accident. She did not know who in the second or third branches did it, but none of these people were innocent. Even if Shen Yuan did not attack her, she would not let him off easily.
If Shen Yue attacked her, she would beat him in his own game.
In the Rosy Cloud Garden in the east courtyard, when Ren Wanyun saw Shen Yuan, she went forward to hug him and cried. The fear and helplessness she had been feeling these days finally condensed into streams of tears the moment she saw Shen Yuan. Ren Wanyun was so choked with emotion that she could not say a word. When Shen Qing, who was already as stiff as a puppet, saw Shen Yuan, a trace of happiness flashed across her dull eyes.
After comforting Ren Wanyun for a while, Shen Yuan went forward and patted Shen Qing’s head. Shen Qing couldn’t hold it anymore and finally burst into tears. As she cried, she said, “Second Brother, why didn’t you come back earlier…”
When Ren Wanyun saw that Shen Qing was crying, she cried too. For a moment, the room was filled with cries. Those who did not know better would think that it was a funeral. No one would expect it to be a wedding.
A trace of gloom flashed across Shen Yuan’s eyes. He had grown up in the General’s Mansion. Although Shen Xin and his wife had the unchallenged status in the General’s Mansion, in his opinion, the two of them were just martial artists who only knew how to fight wars. Their daughter was also a fool. These people could be easily dealt with by their second branch. As for his mother and sister, they had always been elegant and smart. In comparison, Shen Miao was like a stupid country bumpkin.
Now, that stupid country bumpkin actually forced Ren Wanyun and Shen Qing to this extent. To Shen Yuan, this was undoubtedly a blatant provocation.
In the letter Ren Wanyun wrote to him, she had already explained everything clearly. In Shen Yuan’s opinion, although Ren Wanyun’s plan was not perfect, it was really beyond his expectations that Shen Miao could fight back and even escape safely.
“Mother, don’t cry.” Shen Yuan’s expression was calm as he said, “Crying won’t help.”
“Yuan.” Ren Wanyun grabbed his hand and said, “You’re always the smartest. You can definitely save your sister, right?”
Hearing this, Shen Qing also looked at Shen Yuan expectantly. “Second Brother, I beg you to help me. I don’t want to marry that person… I shouldn’t have married him… Second Brother, help me, help me…” Although Shen Qing was also a little afraid of her brother, as long as she was bullied since she was young, Shen Yuan would always seek justice for her. Now that Shen Yuan was her last straw to clutch at, she naturally had to hold on to him tightly.
“I can’t.” Shen Yuan’s expression was so calm that it made people shudder. “At this point, there’s no way to turn around the situation. I can’t allow you to put everyone in danger. Therefore, my dear sister, you must marry him.”
