Hearing this, the two brothers and sisters stopped in their tracks.
Shen Zhiyan looked thoughtful, while Shen Zhaozhao looked full of surprise, "Really? Dad is back?"
"Hmm..." Looking at the happy-looking girl, Aunt Wang nodded hesitantly, then looked at the back of the girl who was already jumping towards the hall. She wanted to say something else but it was already too late.
"What's wrong, Aunt Wang?"
Sensing that something was wrong, Aunt Wang, Shen Zhiyan suppressed the dark color in her eyes and asked before leaving.
"Mr. Shen...that's it. I don't know if I'm overthinking it. Just listen to it and don't take my words to heart."
"Well, you say."
Aunt Wang looked at the young man in front of her with a hesitant expression, and then hesitantly said, "I see... I feel like the master's face doesn't look good, especially when he mentions the young lady..." At this point, Aunt Wang already frowned worriedly.
Seeing Aunt Wang's expression, Shen Zhiyan paused. The delicate profile of her face flickered in and out of focus in the dim night. He looked at the brightly lit hall for a long time before speaking.
"Okay, I understand. You should go and rest first. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, it's not hard." After hearing this, Aunt Wang waved her hands repeatedly, then glanced towards the hall, and then looked at the young man in front of her, "Then...Mr. Shen, I'm going to rest first. "
"Um."
Watching Aunt Wang leave, Shen Zhiyan stood there for two seconds before slowly walking away.
When she walked into the hall, she saw the girl standing there with a face of surprise and confusion. She looked at her father, who was thinking about her day and night, with tears of grievance and confusion in her eyes, as if she didn't understand why he just refused to get close to her.
Seeing this scene, Shen Zhiyan paused slightly, but quickly continued to walk forward, stood next to the little girl, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Shen Zhaozhao came back to her senses and looked at Shen Zhiyan beside her. The water droplets in her eyes were extremely obvious, but she still shook her head blankly, "It's nothing..."
When had the lawless little devil ever swallowed his anger like this? Shen Zhiyan glanced at her, then glanced at the calm middle-aged man sitting on the sofa beside him, with cold eyes, "You go to the study and wait for me first."
Hearing Shen Zhiyan's words, Shen Zhengde's expression became even more ugly, "Is this the way you talk to your father? You didn't even address him when you came back? Is this how your mother taught you since you were a child?" As soon as he fell, Shen Zhengde's face was stained with a trace of regret.
He shouldn't mention his mother in front of him...
"You don't deserve to mention my mother!"
Sure enough, in the next second, an angry roar was heard. Shen Zhengde's expression was a little dull. Even if his son yelled at him, there was no anger on his face. He even lowered his head and did not dare to look at him.
"elder brother...."
A voice as loud as a mosquito came from beside him. Shen Zhiyan paused and tried his best to cover up some of the anger in his brows. Then he turned back, but the anger and hoarseness hidden in the voice were still clearly audible, "Why? Already? "
"Brother, don't quarrel with dad..."
Shen Zhaozhao looked at Shen Zhiyan in front of him, his eyes full of worry.
In her memory, the relationship between her brother and her father had been very tense since she was a child. Every time they were in the same space, they would inevitably quarrel.
But...most of the time it's just the older brother who dislikes his father more.
Hearing Shen Zhaozhao's words and looking into those extremely clear eyes, Shen Zhiyan suppressed the anger that was about to burst out from his heart and softened his tone, "Well, I know, you go up first and I'll see you off tomorrow morning. Go back to school."
"....Okay, I'll go up first. Brother, you and dad should go to bed early." After saying that, he turned his head and said to Shen Zhengde on the sofa, "Good night, dad."
But... Shen Zhengde still didn't react at all, and there was even a bit of disgust in his eyebrows.
Seeing this, Shen Zhaozhao's expression suddenly froze on her face, and her eyes were full of confusion. Just when she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to ask, her head was suddenly covered by a big hand, and a soft voice came from her ears. .
"Good boy, you go upstairs and rest first. Brother and...he still has something to say."
"....All right."
Shen Zhaozhao lowered his head, then glanced at Shen Zhengde, and then walked towards the stairs not far away. Even if he didn't look at the front, the little girl's grievance and sadness could be seen from the back.
Seeing this, Shen Zhiyan's expression became even colder, and then when the petite figure finally disappeared around the corner of the stairs, he withdrew his eyes and turned to look at the man opposite. His voice was cold and bone-chilling, "The study said."
----------------------------------------
"So you are saying that that wild man with unknown origins... Shen Zhaozhao still wants to stay in the Shen family? Do you want me to treat him as my own? You want me to announce to the public that I have two biological daughters. Zhu Xin is just because of his health How about being kept secretly in the countryside?"
"Um."
Seeing that the son who made him both proud...and difficult to face responded without hesitation, Shen Zhengde's expression darkened, and he couldn't help but smash the inkstone on the table to the ground, "Are you confused? She is just a thief. Your sister has been a bastard for almost twenty years! It was she who made your sister suffer outside for almost twenty years! It was she who stole the life that originally belonged to your sister with peace of mind!"
"You're still thinking about her...you...you're just..." Shen Zhengde breathed heavily, looking at his indifferent son in front of him, with veins popping out of his neck with anger.
When Shen Zhiyan heard Shen Zhengde yelling like a bastard, his expression finally changed. He looked at him with a captivating look in his eyes, "I'll say it again, she is not a bastard, and it is not her fault."
"Hey, it's not her fault? Then she has openly enjoyed the luxurious life for so many years, with clothes on her hands and food on her hands, and her mouth open. Our Shen family is extremely benevolent to her!"
"Also," Shen Zhengde looked at his son who was no less powerful than him, with pride and something else indescribable in his eyes, "You think about her so much, have you ever thought about your relatives?" What will my sister think? When she comes back, will she want to see this impostor who has taken up nineteen years of her life?"
After saying that, looking at the silent person in front of him, Shen Zhengde continued, "Zhu Xin is your biological sister, and she is the one you should be thinking about! Not that bastard with unknown origins!"
