You Are My Unforgettable Love

Shen Xiu was immediately quiet and looked at Shen Zihao in disbelief upon hearing his words.

Mei Feng was stunned as well.

The two of them looked at him for a moment before Shen Xiu got angry. “What was it that you just say? Are you berating me for smashing up their house? So you’d be happy if Shen Liangchuan gets his hands on our inheritance? You’ll be happy when the Senior Master hands him the family business?”

Shen Zihao frowned and said, “Dad, the company belongs to Grandad. Isn’t it his decision to choose who to hand it over?”

Shen Xiu almost choked before he laughed icily. He said, “Then what? Let that dishonorable son and that tr*mp Xia Yehua get their hands on the business, and from then on we beg them for pity?”

Mei Feng quickly stepped forward with red eyes and said, “Zihao, don’t quarrel with your Dad. Let’s not create disharmony among the family because of some outsiders! Your Dad is doing this for your good, he wants to keep the best of the Shen family for you.”

Shen Zihao fell silent upon hearing this and swallowed the words of criticism that he was going to say.

Mei Feng sighed and continued, “Your Dad has a bad back and he didn’t want to go to sleep. He berated me for making you ask for the favor and putting you through that unpleasant moment. Sigh… this matter… nevermind. I’ll go and look for her myself tomorrow. I will go and plead with her to let your Dad off the hook.”

Shen Zihao was taken by surprise. “You’re going to do that yourself?”

It didn’t feel right having her do this, although he couldn’t pinpoint why.

She nodded and went on, “Your Dad is a man and cannot afford to compromise his dignity like this, but I’m not afraid of doing it for your father and for the sake of your wedding. We can’t let this matter escalate all the way to the police station. Besides, your mother… She harbors anger against me. If I went and pleaded with her, I’m sure she’d be happy. Actually, as long as someone from our family makes an apology, it will be fine. After all, it’s no big deal, right?”

Somehow, Shen Zihao felt that there was something odd in her reasoning, but just could not think what it was.

She spoke again, “Ok, go and rest.”

He nodded and then turned to head upstairs.

As he came to the stairs, he heard Mei Feng say, “Darling, how’s your back? Let me help you up the stairs. Sigh… No matter what, he’s your son. How could he do this to you?”

Shen Zihao suddenly thought of his mother’s bruised back for some reason.

Worried for Shen Xiu, he went to his room and grabbed the bottle of ointment that he would normally used for strains, fractures and such injuries. Then he walked to Shen Xiu’s bedroom. After knocking a couple of times, he pushed open the door and walked in saying, “Dad, here’s some ointment, you—”

Before he could finish what he was saying, he saw Mei Feng and his father hurriedly jumping apart from each other.

Obviously, he was intruding on a private moment not meant for his eyes.

Mei Feng turned scarlet and Shen Xiu looked terribly awkward, given that he had taken off his top. Possibly, Mei Feng had been giving him a massage and that turned into something else.

Shen Zihao hurriedly walked out of the room.

At this point, Shen Xiu was quite flustered and said, “Why didn’t you knock before entering?”

Shen Zihao coughed once and replied, “I did. Anyway, it’s nothing. I’m going back to my room.”

He took a few steps and suddenly halted, as though he had just realized something.

Shen Xiu’s back was unbruised and pale. There were no visible injury.

He frowned and thought again about what happened earlier. Suddenly, he was puzzled.

In the bedroom.

Mei Feng pushed Shen Xiu away, saying, “Stop behaving so inappropriately. It was too embarrassing to get caught by Zihao.”

“What’s so embarrassing? You’re my wife, what’s wrong, even if I kissed you?”
