The old butler said.
"Miss Shen Xin."
"It's not that I don't want to see you."
"But you got the old man's consent a month ago on the grounds that you haven't returned to country Y for ten years to pay homage to your biological parents. You must know this in your heart."
Hearing this, Shen Xin frowned.
"It's been ten years, and Grandpa still refuses to forgive me?"
Even if she was at fault, ten years of punishment would be enough.
For the past ten years, she has not even been able to return to China.
She just couldn't stand it anymore.
She just found a reason to come back, is that wrong?
Thinking about it, Shen Xin's face became paler and paler, as if she was dehydrated.
Suddenly, just as the old housekeeper was about to turn around and leave, she fainted on the ground.
The sudden sound startled the housekeeper.
"Miss Shen Xin?!"
He quickly ran forward to check Shen Xin's physical condition, and then called for someone.
Shen Xin was brought inside to rest.
In this hot weather, it is true that people will die from the sun.
The sun is fierce, shining in the dense forest of Sanqing Peak.
But the shade of the trees is thick, and there is a place for shade and coolness underneath.
Outside the pavilion, there is a lakeside that blends in with nature, where lotus flowers are in bud and are so beautiful.
There was a dragonfly sitting on a cluster of green lotus leaves, flapping its wings. Suddenly, a slender white hand caught the dragonfly!
Not too hard.
Shen Chaoxi was sitting in a wheelchair, lazily lowering his eyes and watching the dragonfly being caught on the green-white slender fingertips.
"Passed out?"
The housekeeper said, "Yes, Miss Shen. I saw that Miss Shen Xin couldn't hold on any longer, so I took the initiative to bring her in."
"You did nothing wrong."
"It's true that she shouldn't be allowed to pass out outside."
It was precisely because Shen Xin knew this.
Then he fell down.
Maybe her body couldn't bear it anymore, but more importantly, it was a cruel trick.
Shen Chaoxi had already guessed it.
So I don't object to what this housekeeper did.
The Shen family is not hard-hearted.
How could one really look at a little girl like Shen Xin lying outside in the sun and remain indifferent?
"Just Miss, there is one more thing."
Shen Chaoxi raised her eyebrows.
The butler said a little embarrassed.
"Miss Shen Xin picked up a stray dog on the way to Sanqing Peak, so..."
"Stray dog?"
Shen Chaoxi couldn't help but feel confused.
"yes."
"When I brought Miss Shen Xin in, I didn't know what to do for a moment, so I brought her in with her."
Shen Chaoxi sat in a wheelchair, quietly stared at the dragonfly on her finger for a while, and then said.
"Bring me to see."
"Yes, Miss."
After hearing the order, the housekeeper quickly went to find the dog.
"How about it."
"Miss, there is indeed something wrong with this dog."
"Ha," Shen Chaoxi sneered disdainfully.
I didn’t expect that Shen Xin would become a person after so many years.
As always, she was not disappointed.
#
Later, I don’t know how long it took.
The wind blowing from the lake seems to have a slightly depressing atmosphere.
"Sister Shen Xin?!"
Not far away, I heard a cute voice. A girl made a surprised and confused sound when she saw her, and then ran quickly towards the Huxin Pavilion.
"Shen Chaoxi, what are you going to do!"
Look, he came over and glanced at the other person in the pavilion with angry eyes.
Then, the girl stared at Shen Chaoxi with an obviously questioning tone.
Shen Shensi thought that the second young lady of the Shen family was also the daughter of Aunt Shen Chaoxi.
She has a vague relationship with the Shen family, but the two of them have no blood relationship at all.
Because the so-called little aunt was adopted by grandpa.
"Sister Shen Xin, are you okay?"
After glaring at Shen Chaoxi, Shen Shensi quickly looked at the person standing next to him in the pavilion, his eyes full of concern.
It turned out that someone was already here before Shen Sisi ran over.
"I'm fine."
Shen Xin shook her head.
She was wearing a plain white dress today, with light makeup on her face, and a demure temperament. She smiled and looked at Shen Si who came over to care about her, and said softly, "Sisi, you don't have to worry about me."
"Sister Shen Xin! I said you should ask me to come with you. When you told me last night that you were back, I was still thinking of coming to Sanqing Peak with you to see grandpa today. Unexpectedly, as soon as I fell asleep, I slept until dawn, I woke up a little late, I’m sorry.”
Shen Shensi said, with a slightly guilty look on her face, and her voice couldn't help but lower.
It seemed that the person in front of her was a weak woman who had been bullied by the eldest daughter of the Shen family and needed her protection.
But it is true. Shen Xin has lived in the Shen family since she was a child. She is the kind of person who looks very well-behaved and timid. She speaks and does things cautiously.
Therefore, when Shen Xin was a child, she seemed to have suffered a lot when she was living under someone else's roof. Shen Xin often followed her mother back to Shen's house at that time. After seeing Shen Xin, she felt sympathy and pity for her, so she followed Shen Xin. The relationship gets closer.
Although Shen Sisi didn't know what happened later.
But Mr. Shen suddenly sent Shen Xin abroad, and Shen Sisi and she hadn't seen each other for many years.
Calculating carefully, it should be ten years.
Shen Shensi always felt that Shen Chaoxi was narrow-minded and was afraid that Shen Xin, who was fostered in the Shen family, would take away her position as the eldest lady.
Therefore, he deliberately pretended to be ill and plotted against Shen Xin, so he asked the Shen family to send Sister Shen Xin away.
After all, Shen Xin was in the Shen family at that time. She was good-tempered and quiet, and was well taken care of by Mr. Shen. Even the other young masters of the Shen family protected her.
Therefore, Shen Chaoxi was jealous, which made sister Shen Xin suffer for so many years.
"Sisi, I'm fine."
Seeing Shen Sisi caring about herself so much, Shen Xin was also very pleased. She quickly smiled and shook her head, "You don't have to blame yourself."
"Sister Shen Xin, what happened?" Shen Sisi still felt sorry.
Wanting to find out what Shen Chaoxi did to her, "Did Shen Chaoxi bully you?"
"No, Sisi, don't get me wrong, Chao Xi didn't bully me."
When Shen Shensi said such words, Shen Xin would never dare to say anything nonsense.
Shen Xin quickly explained, "I picked up a puppy on the way up the mountain. I thought it was pitiful, so I picked it up. I didn't expect that Chao Xi didn't like it, so..."
As Shen Xinyue spoke, she lowered her head timidly, as if she had done something wrong, which made Shen Shen feel protective again.
"Chaoxi, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't know you didn't like puppies."
Shen Shen thought about it, what big deal is it worth? Sister Shen Xin is here, she lowers her head as if she has been wronged.
Moreover, the pale face of the girl sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake was always shrouded in thin light, and she never even raised her eyes. How could this look like she was accepting an apology?
"Shen Chaoxi, even if you don't like dogs, Sister Shen Xin has been abroad these years, and she doesn't know your preferences. Since she has already apologized to you, why are you still holding on?"
Hear this.
Shen Chaoxi raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled, "You two have finished saying this."
"What else do I want to say?"
Gee, that’s really interesting.
This is good and bad.
Shen Xin said everything in front of her.
Does she still need to be the client to state the facts?
