Chapter 189: Old Madam Shi is furious and kicks the Shi family out of the manor!
The phrase "to confess one's feelings" will never exist in Shen Jingnian's dictionary.
He's a staunch non-marriage advocate!
How could he possibly confess his feelings first?!
He would never confess his feelings first.
Hearing this, Shen Jingshu said speechlessly, "Jingnian, don't be so sure. What if you meet a girl you like in the future?"
In Shen Jingshu's eyes, Jiang Ning was the exception beside Shen Jingnian.
Although the younger brother hasn't figured it out yet, one day he will be attracted to Jiang Ning and fall in love with her.
Meeting a girl you like?
Hear this.
Shen Jingnian raised an eyebrow slightly and parted his thin lips, "Such a low-probability event will never happen to me."
He's not the kind of person who lacks willpower.
He will never break his own rules!
Looking at Shen Jingnian, Shen Jingshu wanted to say something more, but Old Madam Shen grabbed Shen Jingshu's arm, "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, wave goodbye to this idiot! Jingshu, why are you wasting your breath talking to this idiot? When he misses out on such a good girl as Ningning, he'll have his day to cry! At that time, he'll cry even more miserably than the male lead on TV!"
Shen Jingshu nodded, "Mom, you're right. Let's continue watching TV."
Mrs. Shen pressed the play button on the remote control, and the TV continued playing.
Pleasant background music drifted through the air.
Shen Jingnian looked up at the television.
Amidst the falling snow, the second male lead, who had successfully confessed his feelings, and the female lead were embracing and kissing.
The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful; the scene was lovely.
But somehow.
As Shen Jingnian watched, the second male lead's face gradually transformed into Su Hanzhou's face in his vision.
The female lead's face also changed to Jiang Ning's face.
Jiang Ning and Su Hanzhou?
They actually hugged and kissed!
Shen Jingnian was startled and quickly rubbed his eyes before looking at the TV again, but the scene in front of him remained unchanged!
boom!
The cup in Shen Jingnian's hand fell directly to the ground.
The loud noise startled Mrs. Shen so much that she jumped up from the sofa.
"Ahhh! Was there an earthquake?"
Shen Jingshu turned to look at Shen Jingnian, "Jingnian, what's wrong?"
Shen Jingnian then realized what had happened and immediately picked up the cup, saying, "It's nothing, I just dropped my cup."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the television screen again.
The screen has returned to normal.
Shen Jingnian breathed a sigh of relief and continued upstairs. Once in his study, he sat down at his desk to work on documents. But as he reviewed them, images of Jiang Ning and Su Hanzhou embracing and kissing kept flashing before his eyes, and the words of Old Madam Shen kept echoing in his ears: "When he misses out on such a wonderful girl as Ningning, he'll have his day! And then, he'll cry even more bitterly than that male lead on TV!"
can you?
Will Jiang Ning really be chased away by Su Hanzhou?!
Shen Jingnian put down the documents, raised his hand to press his temples, and tried to calm himself down and stop overthinking.
A few minutes later, Shen Jingnian picked up the document again, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't concentrate. He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. He clearly recognized all the words on the document, but when they were put together, they formed a large "Jiang Ning".
Shen Jingnian could only close the file, take out his phone, open WeChat, where there were many unread messages.
But Shen Jingnian didn't look at it; instead, he scrolled down the screen.
He stopped scrolling down when he reached Jiang Ning's WeChat account.
Open Jiang Ning's chat window.
The two people's chat history was still from last night.
At this moment...
where is she?
Who are you with?
Is she with Su Hanzhou?
After all, Su Hanzhou is still Jiang Ning's nominal fiancé.
Shen Jingnian scrolled through their chat history, which had remained unchanged for two days.
Shen Jingnian wanted to send a message to Jiang Ning.
First, I typed "Are you there?" and then deleted it. Then I typed "Are you asleep?" and after thinking about it, I deleted it again.
Meow.
Just then, Xiaobai walked in from outside with elegant steps.
Shen Jingnian's thin lips curved slightly as he clicked on Jiang Ning's WeChat profile picture twice.
This is the "Tap" feature on WeChat.
Jiang Ning was also looking at her phone at the time.
Suddenly receiving a pat from Shen Jingnian, he sent out a question mark.
【? 】
Upon seeing Jiang Ning's reply, Shen Jingnian immediately edited a message and sent it out: [I put my phone on the table; Xiaobai accidentally stepped on it.]
Then, Shen Jingnian picked up Xiaobai from the ground, held her in his arms, and sent her a selfie of himself and Xiaobai.
The man in the photo has sharp, angular features and cold, imposing phoenix eyes, which contrasts sharply with the fluffy little white cat.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you probably wouldn't have guessed that someone like Shen Jingnian would actually take a selfie with a kitten.
[Image JPG] The suspect has been apprehended. Ms. Jiang, what are your plans for handling this suspect?
"Then punish it by making it eat three cans of food in one meal!" Jiang Ning replied.
Seeing Jiang Ning's reply, Shen Jingnian's lips curled into a slight smile, and he continued to ask: [Where's Chu Yi? Is Chu Yi home?]
I'm at home.
After replying to this message, Jiang Ning also sent him a picture of Chu Yi.
Chu Yi was gnawing on a big bone in its little nest.
The bones were specially bought by Madam Shi.
It's bigger than a whole dog in the first year of junior high!
Next to my room in the first year of junior high was a floor-to-ceiling window.
The curtains weren't drawn.
If you look closely, you can even see the reflection in the glass.
The girl, wearing pink bunny pajamas, was half-squatting on the ground, a pretty smile on her lips, tilting her head to look at the first-year students.
Somewhat cute.
It was completely different from how it usually is.
Seeing his reflection in the glass, Shen Jingnian inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, then sent a WeChat message: [Want to go for a run tomorrow morning? You bring Chu Yi, and I'll bring Xiao Bai, so the two little ones can get to know each other? And while we're at it, let's go eat at that delicious shredded pork noodle place?]
After sending the message, Shen Jingnian waited for Jiang Ning's reply.
at the same time.
Jiang Ning just put down her phone and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
A minute passed.
Two minutes passed.
Five minutes had passed, but Jiang Ning still hadn't responded.
Shen Jingnian frowned slightly. Could it be that he said something wrong and angered Jiang Ning?
Otherwise, why wouldn't Jiang Ning reply to him for so long?
Think of this.
Shen Jingnian immediately picked up his phone and looked through his chat history with Jiang Ning.
Shen Jingnian analyzed each message carefully, going through every single chat log. He couldn't believe he had said anything wrong.
How is this going?
Why isn't Jiang Ning replying to his messages?
Or is it that Jiang Ning doesn't want to see him?
Or perhaps Jiang Ning is chatting with Su Hanzhou?
Or perhaps Jiang Ning found him too annoying?
Shen Jingnian became increasingly anxious as he thought about it.
I was almost unable to sit still.
Ding ding ding--
There was a knock on the door outside.
Shen Jingnian frowned slightly, his voice also turning cold. He put down his phone, picked up the documents beside him, and said, "Come in."
His voice also turned several degrees colder.
"Uncle."
Yun Haotian walked in from outside.
"What's wrong?" Shen Jingnian's face seemed to be covered by an impenetrable layer of ice.
I practically had "I'm in a bad mood" written all over my face.
Yun Haotian instinctively shivered. "Uncle, what's wrong? Who made you angry?"
"Get to the point." Shen Jingnian glanced at him.
Yun Haotian then asked, "Uncle, could you lend me Da Hong?"
The red one is a top-of-the-line luxury sports car, with only 10 units produced worldwide.
The other nine vehicles are located in different countries.
This vehicle in China belongs to Shen Jingnian.
When a car is this luxurious, it's no longer a question of whether it's expensive or not; it's a symbol of status.
"No." Shen Jingnian refused outright.
"Uncle, I'm your own nephew!!! And your only nephew at that, so please have some pity on me." Yun Haotian started to whine, "How about this, I'll pay you the rent?"
Shen Jingnian remains the same two words: impartial and incorruptible.
"No."
Yun Haotian continued to plead with Shen Jingnian, "Uncle, Uncle, my dear Uncle~~"
Ding Dong!
A cell phone notification sound rang out in the air.
Shen Jingnian wanted to take out his phone immediately, but when he saw Yun Haotian standing in front of him, he suppressed his emotions and said, "Hand over your phone."
"Okay, Uncle."
Yun Haotian immediately picked up his phone and handed it to Shen Jingnian.
Shen Jingnian took the phone.
The moment Shen Jingnian opened WeChat, he felt extremely uneasy.
Because he didn't know if the WeChat message was sent by Jiang Ning.
Shen Jingnian took several seconds to mentally prepare himself before opening WeChat.
The moment he opened WeChat, Shen Jingnian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It was a message from Jiang Ning.
【Sure, it's perfect timing since I haven't seen Xiaobai in ages.】
Shen Jingnian's face remained impassive, but he replied quickly, "See you tomorrow morning."
【OK. 】
Shen Jingnian put down his phone and looked at Yun Haotian, "What did you just say? You want to borrow Da Hong?"
"Yes, Uncle!"
Shen Jingnian continued, "Go find the butler and get the key yourself."
"Okay, Uncle, thank you!" Hearing this reply, Shen Jingnian was very excited. "Uncle, you are simply the best uncle in the world!"
He knew it; his uncle's favorite person was definitely him!
Yun Haotian hummed a little tune as he went downstairs to find the housekeeper.
--
the other side.
Shi Family Manor.
In the main hall.
Madam Shi's face was filled with anger as she pointed at Shi Nanyue and Tang Gaoyi, "An'an has caused such a huge disaster, how do you two plan to handle this?"
Tang Gaoyi glanced at Old Madam Shi, but didn't dare to speak.
Shi Nanyue's eyes were red, and her voice was a little hoarse. "Mom, An'an already knows she was wrong, please forgive her this time! You watched An'an grow up, you know her personality best. She is very innocent and kind. She didn't do it on purpose, she just wanted our approval! Mom, please ask Shengbao to plead for An'an to post an explanation on Weibo, saying that An'an was by her side when she saved Grandpa Ouyang, and that An'an was one of her saviors."
Only in this way can Tang An's reputation be restored.
Jiang Ning is Tang An's cousin, and the two share a deep blood relationship.
It is only natural for sisters to help each other.
Madam Shi was already very angry, and she became even angrier after hearing her daughter's words. "You want Sheng Bao to distort the truth and salvage Tang An's reputation? I think you've really gone mad!"
"Does Tang An not know whether she saved Mr. Ouyang or not?"
"Fortunately, Mr. Ouyang still remembers what his savior looks like. What if Mr. Ouyang had forgotten? If Mr. Ouyang had forgotten what Sheng Bao looks like, wouldn't the crime of impersonating someone else's savior be pinned on Sheng Bao?"
"When she was falsely accusing Sheng Bao and making a big fuss about holding a birthday party, why didn't she think of this now?"
The thought of her granddaughter suffering such humiliation made Madam Shi very sad. Her precious granddaughter had suffered for nineteen years outside and had finally been found and brought back, only to suffer like this again!
Shi Nanyue lowered her head, her eyes filled with humiliation and resentment.
As expected, a granddaughter can't compare to a biological granddaughter.
If Jiang Ning had made the mistake today, would Old Madam Shi still have given such a long lecture?
eccentric!
My mother is still as biased as she was 20 years ago.
Shi Nanyue tried her best to appear as if nothing had happened, and cried, "Mom, An'an already knows she was wrong. Even if someone kills someone, it's just a matter of beheading them. So tell me, what do you want her to do to forgive her?"
Madam Shi pressed her temples. "Starting today, the three of you will move out!"
