Chapter 460: Chapter 460

Shen Bin watched as Zhao Guodong approached him, but he didn’t get angry; instead, he looked towards Ye Qian and nodded at her.

"Ye Qian, you go and take care of your things. I have something to say to Zhao Guodong."

Ye Qian didn’t move, her expression a bit worried as she looked at the two, "Brother-in-law, please talk things over peacefully, don’t argue. You’re probably looking for Grandma Zhao, right? I’ll help you call her, I just saw her yesterday!"

Zhao Guodong glared at her with a hostile expression, "Mind your own business, don’t need you to interfere, just get on with what you’re doing."

These words were quite rude, causing Ye Qian’s face to stiffen slightly before she smiled again, "You are my brother-in-law, and he’s my sister’s friend, plus, we grew up together; how can I not be involved!"

With that, she didn’t leave but stood firm, "Zhao Guodong, I know what you’re upset about. You must think my brother-in-law is standing up for the Shen Family, right? But you’re getting so angry without clarifying things first. You’re good friends with my sister, and this is her husband; you should consider her feelings and talk things over properly, right?"

Though Ye Qian’s words weren’t unreasonable and were kindly meant to persuade them, Zhao Guodong was unwilling to listen but didn’t vent his anger at her; instead, he waved his hand, signaling Ye Qian to leave.

Ye Qian stood her ground, "I won’t leave, what if you two start fighting? My sister isn’t here, so I have to be present."

Shen Bin also thought Ye Qian being there wasn’t helpful, "We’re all from the military, we won’t just start fighting after a few words, so don’t worry, you should just go ahead and do your thing!"

Ye Qian glanced at Shen Bin, hesitated for a while before turning away, but instead of heading home or outside, she went straight to the Zhao Family. Seeing her act , Zhao Guodong couldn’t help but feel a surge of irritation, which he ended up directing at Shen Bin.

"There’s nothing going on in the military now, and it’s the big New Year’s holiday, you definitely came back because of the Shen Family’s business, right? Is it your parents who made you come back, or was it the Shen Family who called you to return?" Zhao Guodong looked at Shen Bin impatiently, "I’m telling you, don’t interfere with this matter. This is between our family and the Shen Family. I’m giving face to Ye Ling, that’s why I’m directly telling you now. If you’re here to stand up for the Shen Family, then think carefully about whether you can handle it."

"Dongzi, can we talk things over calmly?" Noticing his anger, Shen Bin used a softer tone, trying to discuss things calmly.

"Talk things over calmly, about what? About what the Shen Family has done, if it weren’t for Shen Chun’s sly tricks in front of my grandma, would she have been fooled by her? Now what, they come to the residence causing trouble daily, and during the big New Year’s holiday. My grandma was already not well and now she’s infuriated, staying in bed unable to get up. You tell me, with them pulling such stunts, how am I supposed to talk calmly with you? The fact I haven’t gone to their home to beat them up is giving you face." Zhao Guodong tugged at his collar, unbuttoning a couple of buttons, "Now that you’re here, I really don’t want to see the Shen Family people, so carry the message back to them: If they want to latch onto me, Zhao Guodong, they can dream on! They should know my temper by now; really infuriate me, and they won’t get off lightly." Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on noⅴelfire.net

"My family called me back, told me they’ve been causing trouble at the residence, and I also don’t want this matter to escalate, so I rushed back. I understand you’re upset, but anger won’t solve the problem. Let’s calmly and openly clarify everything right here now: whoever’s in the wrong should take responsibility." Shen Bing didn’t elaborate further, fearing he might provoke Zhao Guodong, as he glanced over to see that Mrs. Zhao might have been brought out. He then swept a glance at Zhao Guodong before turning to greet them.

As Zhao Guodong saw his grandma coming out, he glared irritably at Ye Qian without saying much, and followed along.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Zhao was being supported by Ye Qian, and as she reached Shen Bin, she immediately gave an apologetic look, "Dongzi is a kid who doesn’t know how to weigh his words; don’t take any of his harsh words to heart. I’ve heard from Ye Qian, you’re here to see me, is it about the Shen Family’s matter?"

Shen Bin also looked embarrassed, "Mrs. Zhao, I really apologize, I must trouble you to make a trip. Such a matter, it’s my failure to educate them properly, but now things have escalated to this point, I think it’s better to clarify it face to face, saving everyone from continuous turmoil."

Mrs. Zhao nodded repeatedly, "You’re right, that’s what I was thinking too; I always wanted to find a chance to address it but couldn’t find one. The Shen Family comes here daily causing trouble, everyone’s quite angry. Now that you’re back, let’s talk about it. After all, it was my oversight earlier. This matter with the kids is something older folks can’t really manage."

Standing to the side, hearing these words, Zhao Guodong became unhappy, his face showing displeasure, "Grandma, what’s there to talk about with their family? They’re simply pampered by their family, you should just lie down and rest, don’t bother with them. I’ll solve the matter myself, no need for you to intervene."

"Listen to the nonsense you’re saying? This issue stemmed from me, and now it’s escalated to this point, I have to go with you to explain things. Besides, you just didn’t like her, but why go and talk to the girl, leading to her losing such face?" Mrs. Zhao was kind-hearted, even though she found the Shen Family’s actions quite excessive and her impression of Shen Chun had soured, she still felt the turmoil was ultimately caused by her grandson.

Initially, she really liked Shen Chun, this girl came from the countryside, was honest and reliable, well-behaved to boot. Compared that to her grandson’s fiery temper, finding someone with a good temperament they wouldn’t fight often; who knew now the marriage didn’t go through and the two families ended up like enemies.

Although Zhao Guodong had a fiery temper, he was filial, gulping back his rebukes at his grandma’s words. However, he stared unkindly at Shen Bin, silently warning him that if he dared drag his grandma into it, he wouldn’t be let off easily.

Considering he was someone Shen Bin had tutored, Shen Bing wasn’t intimidated by his stare, "Mrs. Zhao, given your health concerns, originally I planned on taking you, but seeing you’re not so well, maybe it’s best not to go; I’ll bring Dongzi over and we can discuss the matter face-to-face."

Seeing Zhao Guodong’s expression lightening up at Shen Bin’s words, Grandma Zhao disagreed, "I’m fine really, you don’t have to worry about me. Let’s go over now, I have to talk to Shen Chun face-to-face so the child won’t feel hurt."
