Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 687

687 Suspicion (2)

Shen Dongling smiled faintly. “I’m just the young madam of the Wang family. I’m not worth mentioning in her eyes. Why does she have to please me?”

Xing Hua said angrily, “You’re a proper wife of an official. Who is Fifth Miss going to marry in the future to be on equal footing with you? Don’t tell me she wants to marry a prince? Her reputation was ruined a few years ago. Who would marry her?”

“Xing Hua.” As if feeling that the maid had gone too far, Shen Dongling shot her a glare. Xing Hua quickly shut up, not daring to say anything else.

“Reputation is nothing.” Shen Dongling said softly, “With the backing of the Shen family and the Luo family, no one can stop her even if she wants to marry the current emperor. It’s just that…” Shen Dongling smiled meaningfully.” It’s not necessarily a good thing to enter the royal family.”

!!
On the other side, Luo Tan was asking Shen Miao, “Cousin Sister, is that the illegitimate daughter of the second branch? She doesn’t look like a timid and low-key person.”

Before Luo Tan came to the capital, she was afraid that she would not be able to recognize the people from the Shen family, so she specially asked the servants about each and every member of the Shen family. The servants said the least about Shen Dongling because this Third Miss was such an invisible person. She did not leave the courtyard at all and was very humble. Because the juniors of the Luo family were all mischievous and playful, especially Luo Tan and Luo Qian, they really could not imagine a life like Shen Dongling’s.

Unexpectedly, today, it was not like what the servants said at all. Shen Dongling was completely different from what she had imagined.

Shen Miao smiled. “People change.”

Luo Tan thought for a moment and agreed. “That’s right. I think she’s changed because she’s married and is liked by her in-laws.”

Shen Miao was amused by Luo Tan’s remark. Shen Qiu asked, “Sister, after watching the execution, can we go home now?” The fact that Shen Miao was kidnapped last time still haunted Shen Qiu.

Just as Shen Miao was about to answer, she suddenly heard a clear voice. “Sister Shen!”

Shen Miao turned around.

The person who ran over was a young man. He was wearing a pine green satin dress with pine leaves embroidered on the sides of his collar. This young man was about 11 or 12 years old. He was considered very handsome, but for some reason, he still looked childish. He was fair and tender, looking like a person who had walked out of a painting.

Luo Tan’s eyes widened. Even someone like Luo Tan, who did not have much patience for children, was attracted to this young man, let alone others.

Luo Ling and Shen Qiu were a little surprised. From the looks of it, this young man was quite familiar with Shen Miao. Shen Miao frowned and felt that the young man looked familiar, but she could not figure out who he was.

The young man thought that Shen Miao would remember his name immediately, but he did not expect her to just look at him in a daze. Therefore, he walked to Shen Miao’s side. He was not as tall as Shen Miao and had to raise his head slightly to stare at her.

Just as Shen Miao was about to ask the young man, she heard someone beside her saying with a chuckle. “Fifth Miss Shen, Young Master Shen.”

The person was wearing a lake-blue robe. The style of the clothes was exactly the same as the young man in front of her, but this person was much older than the young man. He looked vaguely similar to the young man’s. He had a handsome face and an elegant smile. Shen Miao and Shen Qiu knew this person. It was Su Mingfeng, the son of the Earl of Pingnan.
