Chapter 111: Pretending To Be Stupid
Third Uncle didn’t put down the bowl in his hand at all. Seeing how the couple looked, he didn’t pay any attention to them at all. He continued to hold the bowl and eat. After finishing it in two or three bites, he put down his chopsticks and lightly spoke.
“Then tell me, why did an outsider like me go abroad to find a child that was sold by some unscrupulous animals? Was it because I was bored? Hmm, maybe it was because I was bored that I actually said these things to animals.”
“Alright, let’s go. What’s there to talk about between humans and animals? Seriously. I say, Weiwei, after you finish eating, hurry up and go to school. Just throw these cats and dogs out.”
Shen Xiaoxiao smiled at Third Uncle and handed him her coat. After she saw that the door was closed, she slowly walked back to the sofa and sat down.
Of course, she sat and 19 stood beside her as usual. It was very obvious that he was protecting her. On the other hand, Lin Jiadong and his wife did not know whether to sit or stand. 19’s gaze was too sharp. Even though they were famous for being shameless, they were actually a little timid at this time and could not be sure.
“Weiwei, say something. What do you mean by this? We are your parents. You have been missing for more than ten years and we haven’t had an easy time. And your grandmother, she cried her eyes out because of you.”
Lin Jiadong thought that Shen Xiaoxiao would react to the old granny of the Lin family. However, he was wrong again. Shen Xiaoxiao still did not have a reaction. She did not even blink her eyes. Now, the couple did not know what to do.
They could not beat her either. What was the meaning of this?
“Is the performance over? After the performance, turn around and leave. Also, close the door. As for those people behind you who want to know about the eldest daughter of the Shen family, I naturally know. But, why should I tell you?”
Wang Lihua and Lin Weiwei’s hearts tightened. They did not even open their mouths. This Lin Weiwei took the initiative to tell them about the eldest daughter of the Shen family. What, what did she mean?
“You, you, you really know where the eldest daughter of the Shen family is? Where is she? Tell us?”
“Yo, why can’t you hold it in any longer? Aren’t you here to recognize family? Why are you so eager to know about the eldest daughter of the Shen family the moment you hear about her? Third Uncle was wrong. Actually, even animals know more about family ties than you.”
“Damned girl, what are you talking about? Such a sharp mouth, such an uneducated damned girl! How dare you talk to me like that? You’re just like your dead mother. Shameless!”
“Shameless? You’re indeed shameless. It’s okay for a widow to remarry, and it’s okay for her to climb onto the bed. But Mr. Lin is blind. So many men avoid her, yet he’s rushing to pounce on her. No wonder the stench is the same.”
“Damned girl, I’ll tear your mouth apart!”
“Alright, stop fooling around.”
To Shen Xiaoxiao’s surprise, Lin Jiadong actually took the initiative to pull Wang Lihua back.
“Why are you pulling me back? Didn’t you hear what she said? She’s so uneducated, she’s simply…”
Wang Lihua’s words were suddenly stuck in her throat because she saw that the bodyguard actually took out a three-leaf knife. Moreover, he twirled it quickly and forcefully, scaring her so much that she was stunned.
After all, Lin Jiadong was a little more sober than Wang Lihua. He came here today with a purpose, not to quarrel.
Moreover, the Lin family might not be able to take advantage of their daughter. How could he offend this golden bowl at this time?
“Shut up.”
“Weiwei, don’t listen to your mother’s nonsense. Your mother has a bad temper. Back then, when you got lost, she looked for you for a long time and was sad for several years. Now, she is happy to see you back.”
“But your temper is really too big. You’re a junior. As for the matters of the elders, it’s the matters of the previous generation. No matter what, it can’t have nothing to do with you juniors. Don’t think too much. There are some things you don’t understand.”
Lin Jiadong’s words made Shen Xiaoxiao speechless. However, she wanted to see what Lin Jiadong was trying to say and what his real purpose was.
“Oh? Is that so? So there’s something I don’t know?”
Shen Xiaoxiao asked this on purpose. Lin Jiadong thought that Shen Xiaoxiao was moved by his words. After all, they were father and daughter. If he appeared, it would be much more effective than Wang Lihua’s words. Wasn’t his attitude obviously much better?
“Yes, of course. Actually, your mother’s body was weak when she was young. We were married for a few years before we got pregnant with you. However, she had heart disease since she was young and you were already at risk. You can’t blame her for not surviving this.”
“However, your mother and I, your step-mother, only got married one year after your mother died. I definitely didn’t do anything wrong to your mother.”
“However, after that, you were too playful and ran out on your own. We didn’t expect you to be kidnapped by a kidnapper. Your mother cried until her eyes were almost blind. She had been looking for you for more than ten years. Now that you’re back, of course we’re both excited and happy.”
“Oh, I see. You were so excited just now. You scared me.”
Shen Xiaoxiao went along with the words of Lin Jiadong said. Lin Jiadong listened to Shen Xiaoxiao say those words and was suddenly happy in his heart. This little girl looked very easy to deceive.
Easy to cheat was good, easy to cheat could do more for the Lin family.
“Blame me, but blaming your mother is not good. Your mother’s temper is too blunt. Weiwei you don’t and mother see eye to eye.”
Wang Lihua was naturally not stupid. When she saw that Shen Xiaoxiao’s attitude had changed, she immediately changed her face.
Meanwhile, Lin Jiadong seized the opportunity to pursue her and hurriedly said, “Weiwei, why are you together with Shen Jinwen? From what I heard from Shen Jinwen, you’re studying? When did you return to China? Go home with Mom and Dad. The family is very happy to know that they’ve found you. Your brother and sister are waiting for you to come home.”
“Your room has been prepared by your mother. Hurry up and tidy up before we leave.”
“Go home?”
“Yes, of course, go home. You child, it’s not easy for you to come back from the outside. Of course, you have to go home. There’s no reason for you to live outside.”
“But, I promised Third Uncle that I would stay here before Miss Shen came back. Miss Shen is about to graduate from a university abroad. How can I leave now?”
“What? Miss Shen is studying abroad?”
Seeing the obvious surprise on their faces, Shen Xiaoxiao secretly laughed and continued:
“Yes, hasn’t Miss Shen always been studying abroad? Why isn’t she studying abroad?”
The Shen family had always spread the news that Miss Shen was studying abroad, so although there were people who doubted it, they did not expose the truth.
Now that Shen Xiaoxiao had deliberately said so, it naturally caused them to be surprised.
“Then, what about you? How do you know the eldest daughter of the Shen family?”
“Me? I don’t have a good life like the eldest daughter of the Shen family. I was sold abroad by those beasts and transferred to an underground factory to work. Later on, Third Uncle accidentally met me in Country M, so he brought me back.
“Third Uncle saw that I didn’t know anything, so he asked this gentleman to follow me. He was afraid that I wouldn’t be used to it, so he waited for me to get used to things here before making arrangements for the future.”
“What? This is the person that Shen Jinwen arranged for you?”
“Yeah, a monthly salary of more than 5,000 yuan. Third Uncle is really a good person. Third Uncle spent the money for the few months that I returned to China. Since you guys found it now, there’s naturally no reason for Third Uncle to spend money. Third Uncle paid half a year’s salary to this gentleman. Why don’t you help me return the money to Third Uncle first?”
“What? Let us pay?”
