She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment Ⅱ - Chapter 898
Chapter 898: It Wasn’t Her (17)
When Xia Yehua took Shen Liangchuan and they left the Shen Family without a cent in their pockets, Shen Zihao had only been 15 years old.
It was the age when teenagers were naturally rebellious.
Xia Yehua’s departure had caused him to abruptly lose his mothers’ love, so he became exceptionally sensitive and nervous.
It left him feeling insecure.
It might not have been so tough on him if hi mom had not taken Shen Liangchuan with her when she left.
At that time, she took his brother along with her and they left without warning. Sometimes in the night, he would lay awake questioning himself.
If he was unwanted because he wasn’t good enough, if it was because he angered his mom all the time.
He wanted to be a child who pleased his mother, and he wanted to have a home where he belonged.
Especially at that time.
He was young and naive, going away to study abroad.
In a strange land, he missed home even more.
But while he was looking forward to being home again for the holidays and enjoying time with his family once more, he had received the grievous news.
He still remembered clearly how his Dad had called him on the phone, saying that his mother had left, taking his brother with her. But he was in another country, separated by vast seas, connected only through the telephone. He could only ask his father, “What about me?”
He had no idea of what that question really meant, but those were the only words that came out.
At a time in his life when he had felt terribly lost, Mei Feng appeared.
He had always known Mei Feng.
He had met her many times as Dad’s secretary.
Mei Feng treated him exceptionally well.
After his mom left home, Mei Feng started to take care of his father and him daily.
Her patience, tolerance and warmth made them happy.
Especially how Mei Feng treated him.
She was less than 20 years older than him.
At the time she had married his father, she would have been about 35 years old.
This young lady became his stepmother.
He had seen her talking to housekeepers, who knew him well, to ask about his eating habits.
Mei Feng had given him a warm home again.
And it had been so for many years.
She had never done anything against him and this hadn’t changed in eight years. She had been nothing but kind towards him, and that kindness came from her heart.
He was no fool, of course he could feel her sincerity.
Hence, every time he came face to face with the mother who had abandoned him, he would take Mei Feng’s side.
Compared to Xia Yehua, he trusted Mei Feng more.
But now…
He had realized that Mei Feng had set his own wife up.
He looked at the woman steadily. When the truth finally sank into him, he spoke, “Why did you do this?”
He needed a reasonable explanation.
No, actually, he could not think of any good reasons why Mei Feng would try to destroy his relationship with Xia Nuannuan.
When Mei Feng heard this, her eyes reddened immediately and she bit her lip. After a moment, she said, “Zihao, I’m sorry.”
“Why? I just need a reason.”
Mei Feng hung her head and tears started to roll down her cheeks.
She took a deep breath and said after a pause, “Zihao, I feel that she’s not good enough for you.”
Shen Zihao was stunned immediately when those words came out.
He looked at Mei Feng with a shocked expression. “Aunty Mei, I thought all this time that you had agreed to this marriage.”
She looked up at him and replied, “Yes, in the beginning. But after I met her father and mother, I no longer did! Because their family can’t be of any help to you.”
