Chapter 607 Rushing to Su Wan
A/n: pulled a nerve in the left shoulder will have to decrease my work, please don't drop the book as I will be on a Medical leave.
Shen Tian heard his wife's words and felt really emotional, sure enough, his wife was the only one who understood him, she knew that he was dying to meet his niece which was why she was asking his older brothers not to stretch the matter too far. He turned to his second brother and elder brother before he snapped impatiently, " Enough is enough Second brother, Elder brother! I know that she was wronged but we are willing to make it up to her….and back then neither of you told me about the fact that Wan Wan forgave us or that you were trying to gain her trust back." After a short pause, his brows furrowed and he looked at the two brothers of his and said, " Why didn't you tell me anything? I could have helped you too as well, I mean since when did you two start to work so hard?"
Shen Zizhen and Shen Junxi's brows jumped, sure enough, their third brother was catching on to their lies. The two exchanged a nervous look with each other and hurriedly shouted, " What do you mean that you are willing to make it up to her? You want her to accept you but the harm has already been done, why will she forgive you all? Things can never be this easy, can they? After all, it's really hard to gain Wan Wan's trust and you know that, how can you expect her to forgive you just because you apologise to her?"
" She has suffered so much when she was a child already and now that she has grown up, she had to watch her grandmother dote on another woman, how can she be willing to open her heart, to anyone of you now?"
Old madam Shen finally reacted after listening to his words, it was as if someone has taken the notch of a gun and started rapid firing. The veil of daze snapped from her eyes and her lips parted as she shouted at her sons. " You bastard! Vile creatures! Why did you not tell me that the girl was my granddaughter? Huh? Were you waiting for me to make a fool out of myself? If I knew that she was my granddaughter, would I still have looked at the fake? She was right in front of me and yet I was doting on another girl, she must hate me so much! Ahh, God why did you not kill me that day? At least you should have let my tongue fall out of my mouth when I was saying all those loving words to a white-eyed wolf in front of my granddaughter!"
Old madam Shen smacked her chest, crying and sobbing as she started to have trouble breathing. Seeing her like this Shen Zizhen and Shen Junxi were startled and realised that they might have gone too far. So they hurriedly rushed to their mother who was leaning against Xu Jia and crying her eyes out.
" Mother don't be so upset, you still need to meet Wan Wan right?" Shen Zizhen wasn't particularly close with his mother because she was the strictest with him since he was the one who inherited his father's business. But he was still upset when he saw that she was struggling.
" Why do you care, you dimwit.. you didn't even tell me where my granddaughter is, maybe you want me to die without even knowing where she is right? So that even my Ghost won't be able to see her?" cried Old madam Shen as she hugged her daughter-in-law and buried her face in the lap of Xu Jia before crying like she was going to lose the last battle of her life.
" Mother that's not it," Shen Junxi was the eldest and naturally he was the closest to his mother, so he couldn't take her crying like this and spilled the beans under the pressure. " Wan Wan is at the Dong Tong village she lives at the big house near the mountains."
Once he said that the crying stopped and Old madam Shen got to her feet as she looked at the door and shouted at the person in charge of the carriages. " Old Man, get the carriage, we are setting off to the Dong Tong village." And then without paying any attention to her sons who were shocked as heck, she rushed out of the house.
Shen Zizhen and Shen Junxi: "…." Sure enough the older the ginger the spicier it is.
Right after she left, Xu Jia grabbed her son's hand and then turned to her husband. " What are you waiting for? Let's hurry up, I need to meet my beloved niece."
Shen Tian appeared a bit worried as he said, " Would she accept me? I didn't work hard to earn her forgiveness? I am worried that she would think that I do not care for her as much as her other uncles."𝒇𝚛e𝗲𝘸e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝙚𝒍. c૦𝒎
" Then you wait here and I will just go ahead and see our niece, you can come after you have placed your balls back where they belong." And then she too rushed out of the house, with her son being dragged like he was some old sack she was dragging with her. Despite the rough treatment, Shen Beichuan looked exceptionally excited.
Shen Tian, the man with no balls: "….."
" I will leave to see my sister as well then," said Shen Zeyu as he walked out of the banquet hall at an incredibly fast pace.
"I will have to see myself off as well," said Shen Yuchen as he strode out of the banquet hall as if he was flying in the air.
However, as the two reached the door, they saw two figures who shouldn't be there at all running towards the carriage that was standing at the entrance of the banquet hall. They looked at the two figures and simultaneously shouted, " Shen Yanqing, Shen Muchen, what are you doing here?"
The two were bewildered a day ago their brothers looked like they were going to die but now they looked like they were fused with a vitality that couldn't be ignored even if they wanted to.
Shen Yanqing looked at his big brother and in a babyish voice shouted back. " Brother, I am going to meet our sister. You can take your time."
Shen Zeyu: "…."
Though he received a reply he wasn't happy with it but when he saw that Shen Yuchen's brother didn't even bother to reply to his brother, he felt a bit happier. At least he has a little more respect when compared to his cousin what he didn't know was that his brother was seven years younger than him and was still a child compared to Shen Yu Chen whose brother was already a teen with the air of 'I don't like girls and was going through a rebellious phase at the moment.
After the two exchanged a look they too rushed to the carriages and rushed out of the Shen house.
The guests who saw the bewildering scene were surprised, they couldn't make out what to feel at the moment. Though many found that this scene was cute, they did think of it as a crazy thing as well.
After all, the tornado that was left behind by the Shen family was yet to be taken care of and yet they have disappeared in a blink of an eye, what does this mean?
Even Shen Tian who was a bit hesitant turned to look at his brother and then he too left the banquet hall at an incredible pace.
Shen Junxi and Shen Zizhen needed a few minutes to snap out of their daze as they both turned to look at the crowd and bowed before apologizing. " We are really sorry about the disruption of the banquet but we will definitely send a very well explained apology to everyone please don't take it to heart and please forgive us for this sudden incident, the next thing is really something personal and private for us, so we will end the banquet here and now. As you can see that our niece has a very important place in our heart so, we would like to apologise for this sudden incident and hope that everyone will bless us."
Once they were done speaking the two left as well, they too needed to hurry back and see Wan Wan or else she will be overwhelmed by their mother and brother who were rushing to meet her at the moment.
Everyone at the banquet congratulated them as they left.
At the Lin house.
Carriages after carriages came to a stop at the front of the door and the doors of the carriage flew open as one by one the members of the Shen family jumped out and started to dash towards the small mansion that was standing tall and haughty in the middle of a small cliff.
