Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife - Chapter 181
Chapter 181: How Dare You Make the Whole Family Wait for You!
After a day, Shen Lin brought his beautiful wife home. But, he did not return to the Shen family after they got down from the plane. They went to her father-in-law’s home instead.
While they were eating, Shen Lin’s father-in-law said to him. “I heard that you have a younger sister who has a different surname than you in your Shen family. She’s your uncle’s daughter. But, she had created quite a mess in your family.”
“Hmm… She could act like that because my grandpa is on her side. She’s just an eighteen-year-old girl. She can’t do much on her own.” Shen Lin gulped down a glass of red wine. He was rather annoyed. “Grandpa was never so nice and good to my younger sister and I.”
“I don’t care about what’s happening in the Shen family. But, you can’t let my daughter suffer for you. If not, I’ll ask her to leave you.”
“Father-in-law, don’t worry about it.” Shen Lin held up his wine glass and toasted him. “Xiao Jing is my life.”
Yu Jing stole a glance at her own father at that moment. Their eyes met and soon they understood each other. They did not have to say anything anymore.
Their entire family were liars…
The next morning, Shen Lin went home with Yu Jing. On their way home, Yu Jing asked Shen Lin, “My father told me something regarding your younger sister who has a different surname with you. She’s good at acting and creating conflicts. She’s also good at coaxing and lying to your grandpa until he’s on her side. So, I’m afraid that Dad and Mom might be on her side too.”
“Don’t worry. They hate her very much.” Shen Lin replied. “Even if they’re on her side, I’ll never let you suffer. I’m still her elder brother no matter what. I’m the elder here!”
“Shen Lin, you’re the one who is good to me.” Yu Jing leaned against Shen Lin’s shoulder affectionately.
Then, Shen Lin went back home with Yu Jing. But, the atmosphere in the Shen family was quite weird. The elders threw glances at Yu Jing from time to time. They looked at her suspiciously. It rather vexed Shen Lin.
“Dad… Mom, don’t you know Xiao Jing? Why are you looking at her like that?”
“There’s nothing. Did you enjoy your trip?” Huang Yu listened to Grandpa Shen. So, she did not argue with her son at first.
Huang Yu would not be able to hide her true feelings given that she was an impetuous person. But, Grandpa Shen had talked to Mu Qiqi on the phone that morning. Mu Qiqi told Grandpa Shen that Second Aunt had to suppress her emotions. Since Shen Lin hated Mu Qiqi, she would be the villain here. On the other hand, Second Aunt would be the nice one. They would reveal the truth like that.
It was fine if Shen Lin hated her more after that event. So, Second Aunt could refrain from worsening her relationship with her son. Then, they could prevent from falling into Rong Junhan’s trap.
Huang Yu nearly kneeled down to Mu Qiqi after listening to her suggestion. “I never thought that Qiqi is still willing to help me.”
“Xiao Qi was not being kind to you. She acted like that not because she has forgiven you.”
“Father, I know.” Huang Yu nodded her head. “Xiao Qi is part of the Shen family. She did so because of you and my elder brother-in-law.”
“Hmm.”
So, she reminded herself to refrain from acting rashly when her son and daughter-in-law returned home in the morning. She forced herself to suppress the urge of interrogating Yu Jing.
“It’s just a honeymoon. You told me two days ago the wedding ceremony between my uncle and aunt was cancelled. What happened? Did that girl refuse to give her consent?”
“It’s nothing to do with Mu Qiqi. I’ll tell you the details later on.” Huang Yu did not mention anything. It was because Mu Qiqi told her that there was so much to it and Huang Yu might have a slip of the tongue when she was talking about it. So, she was prohibited from bringing it up.
“It must be that…”
“Your grandpa knows that you’re coming back today. So, we’ve arranged a grand feast for you to celebrate your return. You and Xiao Jing should go and rest awhile in the room. I’ll tell you when it’s time for the feast.”
“What kind of celebration? You just want us to meet that girl, isn’t it?” Shen Li said angrily. “My aunt has worked so hard for this family all these past years. Now, there came along an illegitimate child and blocked her path. It’s too unfortunate.”
Huang Yu suppressed her urge to berate her son. She quickly dismissed her son, “Go ahead then.”
It was because she was afraid that she might not be able to hold herself back anymore if Shen Lin said another word.
Rong Junhan was good at plotting and scheming. But, she knew them too well. She did not want to waste time messing with them. Moreover, Mu Qiqi was just an eighteen-year-old kid. So, she had revealed Yu Jing’s identity beforehand.
It was true that Mu Qiqi was just an eighteen-year-old girl. But, Sheng Xiao was there helping her secretly. Not even ten people like Rong Junhan could stand against him.
Moreover, Mu Qiqi called Grandpa Shen that morning because she had thought about it on her own and Sheng Xiao had given her a lot of hints too.
Shen Lin was annoyed. It was because he could detect his mother’s peculiar manner, as her son. However, he was unable to put his finger on it.
Yu Jing smiled and advised him when she saw him like that. “Don’t think too much. We’ll meet her at night, isn’t it?”
“Then, I’ll surely give her a good lesson. I’ll tell her not to interfere in other people’s business.”
Mu Qiqi was not only under Grandpa Shen’s protection but she was also Sheng Xiao’s little one. Surely, Sheng Xiao would only teach his own woman how to gain the upper hand. He had also taught her how to act proudly when she gains the upper hand. Moreover, he would never ask her to be humble and maintain a low profile.
Soon, night fell.
Mu Qiqi left Sheng Ting and got into Sheng Xiao’s common car.
“When can I go to the Shen family with you openly and have meals with them?”
Sheng Xiao threw a glance at her while driving the car. “Do you want so badly for our relationship to be public?”
“Of course not. I just don’t want to address you as my uncle.” Mu Qiqi pouted her lips. “I just wish for it sometimes… only.”
“Which hotel is it?”
“Imperial Hotel.” Mu Qiqi replied. “Why did you ask that?”
Sheng Xiao made no reply. He called Jing Yun after sending Mu Qiqi there. By the way, Mu Qiqi wanted him to appear in front of the Shen family. Surely, he could create a beautiful accident when he met them by chance.
He also needed to eat, didn’t he?
Mu Qiqi did not know about Sheng Xiao’s thoughts. She went straight into the hotel and found the private room. Sheng Xiao told her not to be late or early when she went to the feast. Not being early was implying to the others regarding her status and identity. On the other hand, being late would be treated as a bad thing by the others.
So, she was right on time when she reached the private room.
“Qiqi is here…” Grandpa Shen saw her. Soon, he waved at her. “Come and sit next to me.”
“What a privilege! How dare you make the whole family wait for you!” Shen Lin folded his arms and sneered coldly.
Mu Qiqi heard that. She soon looked up at Shen Lin who was sitting across from her. She raised her eyebrow. “I think you must be Shen Lin, Bro Shen. Grandpa told me that the feast will begin at seven o’clock. So, I reached right on time. Is there a problem?”
“Please don’t call me bro so casually. We’re not that close yet!”
“I didn’t want to do that either, since you can’t shoulder the weight of that word…” Mu Qiqi shrugged in reply.
