At this point, Mei Feng was pale from the cold and she was shivering. Yet she persisted in the icy wind.
The moment he saw her, Shen Zihao’s pupils shrank. He reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, exploding in anger.
“Sheesh!” The moment the car came to a stop, he threw open the driver seat door and jumped out.
He ran towards Mei Feng.
The suspicions he had developed along the way to the villa disappeared at once, when he saw how pitiful she looked kneeling there.
And even if Mei Feng was faking it, so what?
At least she was pleading with Xia Yehua to be merciful for his sake.
Almost at once, he came next to her. Grabbing her arm, he demanded, “Aunty Mei, what are you doing here? Get up at once!”
Mei Feng turned towards him slowly when she heard Shen Zihao’s voice, as though she had just noticed his arrival. She looked at him with great surprise and asked, “Zihao, why are you here?”
Shen Zihao was livid as he stared at the firmly-shut door before them.
The metal gate was stone cold without a hint of warmth.
It felt as though it was there to keep them out.
Suddenly, a sorrowful thought came to his mind.
This was just like eight years ago. Taking Shen Liangchuan with her, Xia Yehua had left the Shen Family and abandoned Shen Zihao.
Shen Zihao clenched his fist tightly and marched up to the door.
He lifted his arm and hit the doorbell angrily.
“Ding! Ding! Ding!” The doorbell chimed. As if that wasn’t enough, he pounded on the door.Read more chapter on NovelFull
After a while, the big metal gate finally swung open.
Aunty Li appeared and said in an impatient tone. “What now? Tired of kneeling? Just go then. What else do you want?”
After saying these words, she realized there was someone else besides Mei Feong at the gate. Startled, she said with widened eyes, “Young Master Zihao?”
Shen Zihao looked as though he was about to chew someone up and looked at Auntie Li with contempt. He said mockingly, “Aunty Li, you’re just a housekeeper hired by our family. What do you think you are?! Get out of my way!”
In a fit of anger, he did not care about hurting the loyal servant, who had been serving her mother since she was very young.
Auntie Li turned pale at once.
She retreated a step as Shen Zihao burst into the house.
When they heard the pounding on the door, Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan exchanged a glance and hurriedly went downstairs to have a look.
Just as they reached the door, they overheard what Shen Zihao said. Qiao Lian saw that at once, Shen Liangchuan’s expression darkened. He took a step towards Shen Zihao and grabbed his arm. “Apologize to Auntie Li!”
“Apologize? Why should I? Was I wrong in what I said? She is a housekeeper. What right does she have to talk like this?”
Shen Liangchuan’s expression darkened.
Xia Yehua heard their voices and came out of the house. She was very surprised to see Shen Zihao. “Zihao is here?”
Shen Zihao gave an icy laugh. “I’m here. Otherwise, how would I ever know that you’d actually trample on my Aunty Mei like this? Mom, I never knew you were this cold-hearted and evil.”
He turned around to look at Mei Feng, who had walked in after him assisted by her bodyguards. Her legs were trembling from kneeling out in the cold for so long in those flimsy clothes.
His heart ached for the woman.
Suddenly, he recalled one time five years ago, when his father had punished him by making him kneel down in the ancestral hall. At the time, he had created trouble because he felt abandoned by his own mother.
