Ms Yao Shuqin had been standing outside the study for a while. She felt a little embarrassed and somewhat uncomfortable. While staring at the closed door, her mind once again played the scene where her son got visibly angry and asked her to leave the study room. He was glaring at Jiang Nian the entire time, seemingly like he would eat up her at any time.
For the first time, she got to see strong emotions like anger and grief in her son’s eyes.
In Yao Shuqin’s impression, her son has always been omnipotent. He is strong and confident, the perfect man. Jiang Nian’s love should be deeper for Shen Ming, not the other way around. The person crying and begging to not break up should be Jiang Nian! However, she did not think that Jiang Nian would so openly discard her son like this! Since Jiang Nian’s feelings for her son were so weak, it seemed like it wasn’t a mistake making them break up.
Although she thought so, she always had this nagging feeling in back of her head that there was something wrong here.
…and she is still inexplicably worried that Jiang Nian will be cruelly retaliated by her son. What is going on?!
No, there is definitely something wrong!
Jiang Nian was more anxious than Ms Yao Shuqin. She looked at Shen Ming who stood in front of her.
Shen Ming has not said a word since Ms Yao Shuqin left. He looked at her condescendingly with his arms crossed.
She could feel coldness radiating from his body and his eyes didn’t have any emotions in them.
The momentum of Shen Ming when he is angry is ten times more terrible than that of an ordinary person.
“My mom is gone. You can tell me the truth.”
“Everything I said before is true. Shen Ming, I am serious, did you think that I was actually serious about you?”
Jiang Nian gave a helpless smile. She gave a small laugh and said, “Every word that Mrs Shen and Miss Yang said is true. Shen Ming, staying away from me is the best choice for you. I am a disaster, I will not only be of no help to you, but will also harm you–”
“Jiang Nian!” Shen Ming violently interrupted her words, his voice became colder and colder. “Is what outsiders say really that important to you?”
“Is it actually outsiders? One is your mother, the other is your father and the last is your grandfather. Does it really not matter??? Do you want me to be with you, only to transform into a cruel and vile woman?”
Shen Ming was speechless for a moment:” ……How would you become a cruel and vile woman??”
Jiang Nian carefully recounted: “The scripts are all played like this, such as XXXX. Have you not seen it? When the woman entered the palace, she was so simple and naive, then slowly, she blackened completely due to the intrigues and traitors lurking around the palace?! I don’t want that! I don’t want to make myself so powerful!”
Shen Ming: “…???”
He rubbed his forehead in agony: “Jiang Nian… don’t pull these things into this. I am asking you now; do you really want to break up with me for this ridiculous reason?”
Jiang Nian suddenly shook her head. She whispered: “…That is not all.”
Shen Ming finally saw some hope.
Jiang Nian: “There is also that five million…”
Um?!
Shen Ming: “……………”
The silence was too long. Jiang Nian couldn’t help but sneak a peek at Shen Ming. She only felt that Shen Ming’s face was darker and more distorted than before. The eyes gazing her were getting deeper, seemingly full of sadness and disappointment.
Jiang Nian’s heart jumped and there was some tension.
She feels that she is not far from the long-awaited imprisonment play and abuse!
Who knows that Shen Ming would just turn around? The whole person looked gloomy. He pointed at the door and said: “Get out!”
“Shen Ming, then we have broken up…”
“Give the Hell out!”
“…ok.”
Jiang Nian disappointedly left Shen Ming’s study. Before she left, she peeked again at Shen Ming, who was just standing there like a statue. She couldn’t understand. Isn’t Shen Ming furious? Isn’t this where he is supposed to hold her shoulders and give her a strong kiss? Or maybe roar at her and then lock her up for torture?! Like in YYYY or ZZZZ dramas!! What kind of sorry excuse of a male lead is this?!
Jiang Nian left the study and Ms Yao Shuqin came over to her.
She pretended to cough: “What did Shen Ming say to you?”
Jiang Nian answered seriously: “Mrs Shen, I didn’t say anything, you can rest assured. I agreed to your transaction. I will not repent or sell you out. After all, you are Shen Ming’s mother, I don’t you two to turn against each other.”
What does that even mean?!
Ms Yao Shuqin’s brain stopped working for a moment, but she soon came back to her senses: “I am Shen Ming’s mother, he would never turn against me because of you!”
Jiang Nian looked at Yao Shuqin and smiled reassuringly: “That would be best.”
Ms Yao Shuqin: “….. ??? ”
Jiang Nian: “Now that all this is over. Excuse me. I need to go back to school.”
Ms Yao Shuqin watched her walk away. Why did she feel like this girl is more pretentious than she thought?
In fact, Jiang Nian could have completely dismantled her in front of Shen Ming this evening. Shen Ming brought Jiang Nian here face-off against her so that must mean that he already knows the truth of the matter. Although she was surprised, she was not too scared.
After all, Jiang Nian received her five million, and that is a fact. She definitely has the upper hand in this situation.
She did not expect Jiang Nian to not say anything, but directly admit that she received five million! She actually admitted to leaving Shen Ming for five million!
Ms Yao Shuqin is very worried that her son will be emotionally scarred. She opened the door of the study. She saw Shen Ming standing beside the window, smoking. His silhouette beside the window looked melancholy and lonely.
Yao Shuqin has always known that her son is a man who is too calm and indifferent. He doesn’t trust easily and the number of real friends is too few. There are very few people who get come close to him, Jiang Nian is the rarest woman in his life….
Now, He is back to before… being all alone.
She suddenly had some regrets. (T/N: wow, I feel bad for Shen Ming rn >_> )
“Shen Ming, Jiang Nian has already left, you…” Although she regretted it a little, she still felt that Jiang Nian was not the best candidate for becoming Shen Ming’s wife. “In fact, through this incident, you can also see that you and Jiang Nian are not appropriate.”
Shen Ming looked out the window and played the ash: “So that gives you the right to threaten her using her own family?”
He already knew.
Yao Shuqin was not too surprised.
“When did you know?”
“Just now.”
He never believed the words from Yang Huiling. However, since this involves his mother, he could not let it go. He naturally wanted to listen to what the two had to say.
Yao Shuqin sighed: “What I did is not right, but it is true that Jiang Nian took the money. In her heart, you are less important than her family…”
Shen Ming said faintly: “I have only been in contact with Jiang Nian for a few months. Even if we love each other, do you really think that if her love for me exceeds her love for her family, only then she would be in true love with me? If my love for Jiang Nian exceeds the love for you, my father and grandfather, meaning that this is true love, what will you do?”
Yao Shuqin was shocked: “It’s not like this, Shen Ming, I didn’t think so.”
“But your approach is exactly this. You think that no matter how you hurt Jiang Nian’s family, she only has true love for me if she endures it. Once she promises you to leave me for her family, the love for me is not true enough, not deep enough, not pure enough.”
“…”
Ms Yao Shuqin had nothing to say at this time. She didn’t know how to explain it. After a moment of pause, she said, “Why did you still get mad with Jiang Nian then?”
Shen Ming paused. What is he angry with? Probably because Jiang Nian doesn’t trust him. She didn’t tell him when she encountered something. So, he gave her a chance but she just said nothing, thinking that he didn’t know anything about it.
He stopped thinking too much and shook his head. “Mom, go to rest. Don’t trouble Jiang Nian again in the future. Don’t do anything like this. You don’t respect me very much but at least respect Jiang Nian and her family. Not to mention that because you are my mother, she never called you a bad woman or held a grudge against you.”
Yao Shuqin was helpless, could only leave the study. She wanted to discuss this with someone but unfortunately, her husband was out on a business trip.
For the next few days, Jiang Nian and Shen Ming did not meet. Even Lin Xiaoyue felt like something was strange. Jiang Nian went on dates with Shen Ming every few days. Even if they didn’t go on a date, they would at least talk on the phone. Now forget going on dates, they don’t even talk on the phone. This is a problem! She couldn’t help but ask Jiang Nian if she had a fight with Shen Ming.
Jiang Nian said, “I don’t know why he hasn’t come to me?”
…… Is it because she has not stimulated him enough so the man did not come to her for revenge?!
When will they start the abusing love phase?
Lin Xiaoyue exclaimed: “You are his girlfriend, how do you not know?”
“I know, right? I wonder why he hasn’t come to me for revenge.”
“…Revenge…? What revenge? Is it because you have stolen his heart?”
“…yes…”
Jiang Nian looked at her unmoving female lord aura, and she felt even more worried. Then she decided to put it out of her mind. She then took the check to the bank so, once again, her mood was really pleasant.
Who knows that while Jiang Nian was waiting for Shen Ming, Ms Yao Shuqin would come to her again.
She was quite surprised: “Mrs Shen, did you come to me because you are still worried? Since last time, I have not seen Shen Ming again, and I have not even called him. Of course, I have not told him anything, you …Is there something you are looking for me for?”
Ms Yao Shuqin was a little embarrassed, saying: “Jiang Nian, you return that five million cheque to me. The previous things did not happen, you and Shen Ming… …should get back together.”
Jiang Nian was flabbergasted: “……………!!!” Are you the devil? ? ?
No wonder she has been having a bad feeling lately! Someone actually came after her precious five million!
Fortunately….. Fortunately, she had the foresight, and deposited the money into her bank account earlier.
