Chapter 459: Chapter 459
After Gao Xique spoke, she fell silent, and everyone in the room turned their attention to Shen Bin, waiting for him to express his stance.
Shen Bin looked at the selfishness of everyone in the room, and his anger slowly simmered. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on noᴠelfire.net
Nonetheless, his tone remained calmly cold, no different from usual, "What do you want me to say? To ask your sister-in-law to intervene, to make the Zhao Family marry Shen Chun? Don’t even think that I can speak on this matter. Even if I could, your sister-in-law could, the Zhao Family won’t marry Shen Chun. Look at what you are doing now. Just give up on this idea!"
Shen Bin hadn’t planned to make his words so definitive, but seeing this family’s mindset, seeing their thoughts, he no longer felt the need to show them any mercy. As for Shen Chun, he had no expectations. It’s better to shut this conversation down now, so that they give up.
"So you don’t want to help Shen Chun, is that it?" Shen’s father asked urgently.
Shen Bin looked at him coldly, "It’s not about not helping. Whatever should be done, what can be done, I will do. Whatever should not be done, cannot be done, I will not violate principles. This is a matter of emotions, and besides, it’s not an unlimited situation. How could you possibly force the Zhao Family?"
"Dad and Mom also said, my parents’ influence may be strong, but it can’t do everything, let alone using influence to pressure someone to marry Shen Chun."
With Shen Bin’s words following one after another, there was no more crying from Shen Chun. After Shen Bin finished speaking, the room became so silent you could hear a pin drop.
Only Gao Xique was gleeful and excited. This was the result she wanted to see, wanting Shen Chun to realize that despite her schemes, she’d been slapped down by Shen Bin.
It certainly humiliated Shen Chun. Let’s see if she dares show arrogance in front of me anymore.
Shen’s father angrily pointed at Shen Bin, "Good, you said it well. You’re a person of principle. Now I finally know what a white-eyed wolf is like. Look at this, everyone, this is what a white-eyed wolf looks like. The family was so poor, every bite was given to him first. Look at how things are now? Align with outsiders to bully us, he won’t help, but instead blames it on us."
"Binzi." Mrs. Shen looked at her son, calling him, but saying no more.
"Don’t say any more. Today I will find the Zhao Family. This is a Shen Family matter, not related to you. Since you won’t handle it, whatever we want to do, don’t meddle or stop us." Shen’s father shouted angrily at Shen Bin, "You rushed back, not to help us, but to lecture us. Your mother and I have never been reprimanded by a junior . You’ve become successful, found your biological parents, we can’t compare, but never forget your roots. Consider who raised you all this time."
Shen Bin saw that talking to them was pointless, and his face grew darker, "You don’t need to go to the Zhao Family. You won’t see anyone causing a ruckus in the courtyard. Just wait at home, I’ll go find them now and bring them to confront you directly."
After speaking, Shen Bin turned and walked out. The Shen Family didn’t make a sound to stop him, but even if they did, they couldn’t stop him.
With him gone, Mrs. Shen became anxious and looked at her husband, "What if he finds them and refuses to help us stand up? The Zhao Family surely won’t give us face. Won’t this matter just end inconclusively?"
"Why are you anxious? We aren’t letting him handle it now. We just want him to give us an explanation. Talk about what they said about our Chun’er at the hospital, how will Chun’er face people afterward? Besides, we can’t call him alone, also call the elders of his family here. We’ll talk about this." Shen’s father always believed that with things happening, while the Zhao’s young man opposed it, the elders favored his daughter. They wouldn’t want a negative impact, naturally letting the marriage happen, so he wasn’t worried.
Shen Chun sat dumbly on the kang without speaking, her mind replaying the look of disappointment mingled with pain in her brother’s eyes as he looked at her.
She was nudged several times by her mother before snapping out of it, looking blankly at her mother.
"Chun’er, I’m telling you, when they arrive later, don’t say anything, just cry, understood? Leave everything else to your dad and me. The Zhao Family must give us an explanation. You’re not young anymore, you wouldn’t want to return to the village and find someone to marry, right? Look at the Zhao Family’s conditions, not bad. Although marrying in now might make him dislike you, couples live , and once together, when he experiences the benefits, past things will be forgotten, he’ll live well with you."
"Aunt, we don’t even know how this will turn out yet, and you’re already thinking about after the wedding, isn’t that too far-fetched?" Gao Xique was unwilling to hear such words.
Mrs. Shen was frustrated at this moment and naturally disliked hearing unpleasant remarks. She glared at her niece harshly, "Can’t you say a little less?"
Gao Xique’s face fell, "Aunt, I’ve said a lot but haven’t caused any trouble? Look at how Shen Chun came back for a few days and it’s all chaos, yet you don’t criticize her? Just because I’m not your daughter?"
Mrs. Shen wasn’t afraid to be direct, "So what if you’re not my daughter? Of course, I’d be biased towards my own daughter."
Gao Xique listened, turning away with an unpleasant expression, saying no more.
Mrs. Shen murmured to herself, "At this point, none of you let me rest easy, still fussing over such trivial things."
On the other hand, Shen Bin had already arrived at the courtyard. Coincidentally, as he entered, he saw Zhao Guodong standing at the doorway talking to Ye Qian!
The two speaking saw Shen Bin from afar and stopped, turning to look at him, especially Zhao Guodong, who frowned deeper as he saw Shen Bin approaching.
Ye Qian’s face showed a sweet smile, "Brother-in-law, when did you come back? Didn’t my sister come back with you?"
"Back to take care of something. Your sister didn’t come back." Shen Bin nodded to her politely, then turned to Zhao Guodong, "I need to talk to you, is your grandmother home?"
"My grandmother is home, but she’s been upset the last couple of days, not feeling well. If you have something to say just speak directly to me!" Zhao Guodong’s tone was unfriendly and aggressive, clearly knowing why Shen Bin was there.
Before Shen Bin could say more, Zhao Guodong had already spoken again, "At this festive time, you rush back alone, leaving Ye Ling there. Is that how you act as a husband? I’ve heard she’s currently pregnant! Does she know why you’re back? Just let you come back?"
Listen to this tone, obviously standing up for Ye Ling!
