No matter how fierce I will cry for you

Chapter 238 Seeing Mom Again

Dining in the Shen family has always been formal, and all rules and etiquette are unavoidable. What's more, today is a dinner party. Although it is just their family, it is not as relaxing as a serious state banquet.

When Miss Qiao Er came downstairs, she was dressed like a real little princess. Her curly hair, which was originally slightly yellow and wavy, was made even more curly and hung loosely on her shoulders. She was wearing a one-shoulder dress, which was goose yellow and very... Shows aristocratic temperament.

Miss Qiao Er originally had fair skin and was beautiful. Dressed up like this, she was even more beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes away from.

Under the guidance of the servant, Miss Qiao Er was taken to the flower hall of the side hall, where the real conversation was.

When Miss Qiao Er passed by, Mr. Shen was sitting on the sofa. He had changed into a casual dark gray trousers and jacket. He looked more friendly than the Chinese stand-up collar just now, but his stern face could still make children cry. .

As if hearing footsteps, Mr. Shen looked up and saw the redressed Miss Qiao Er standing at the door of the flower hall, looking a little reserved.

Another enchanting face, just like her mother and her grandmother, he was also fascinated by such a face back then, which led to a series of troubles later on.

If he had listened to his parents' orders to find a matchmaker, he might not have suffered a lifetime of pain.

"Come and sit." Mr. Shen said with a cold face and an expressionless expression.

Miss Qiao Er was originally liked by her elders, but faced with Mr. Shen's unsmiling attitude, she couldn't use her usual tricks of pretending to be cute. She could only follow Mr. Shen's instructions and sit on the sofa across from her in a reserved manner.

"This year you..." Mr. Shen pondered for a while, seeming to be calculating. After only a few seconds, he continued, "Are you 20 years old?"

"Well, it's New Year's Eve." Miss Qiao Er replied obediently.

"I have a boyfriend..."

"Father." Before Mr. Shen finished asking, Shen Enya's voice came over, "I'm back."

Mr. Shen and Miss Qiao Er looked over together and saw that Shen Enya was still wearing a thick sweater. It was obvious that Shen Enya had come right after entering the door without even changing her clothes.

Qiao Xinghai, who was following Shen Enya, didn't even take off his woolen windbreaker. The temperature in the room was too high, or maybe he was walking too fast, and sweat was pouring from his forehead.

Mr. Shen glanced at them, his expression still cold: "Go and change your clothes first."

"I understand, father." Shen Enya nodded obediently. Her tone and expression did not sound like an ordinary father and daughter, but rather like a superior or subordinate, or a monarch. "Xiaoyu, come with me too."

When Miss Qiao Er's name was called, she immediately stood up and couldn't wait to leave with Shen Enya. She really couldn't bear the intimidating momentum of Mr. Shen.

It's just that she left too quickly and didn't know the rules of the Shen family at all. She only took two steps when Shen Enya's face darkened and she reminded her in a lecturing tone: "Say goodbye to grandpa."

Miss Qiao Er was stunned for a moment, thinking to herself, weren't you the one who called me? She originally had a problem with Shen Enya, her own mother, but now that she was being mean to her, Miss Qiao Er had even lost her temper.

Even so, Miss Qiao Er obediently turned her head to look at Mr. Shen and said, "Goodbye, grandpa."

"Go." Mr. Shen didn't embarrass them and just responded calmly.

Miss Qiao Er then glared at Lao Qiao and walked towards the door of the flower hall without looking back.After the family of three left Mr. Shen's sight, Shen Enya took the two of them back to their usual place.

Due to health reasons, she does not live in the main castle, but in the auxiliary castle at the back. From the main castle to the auxiliary castle, there is a corridor in the middle to ensure that people who come in and out are not exposed to the severe cold and heat outdoors.

The family of three walked on the corridor, as if they were experiencing summer, autumn and winter at the same time. The maids and soldiers passing by nodded and saluted Shen Enya, calling His Highness.

Shen Enya acted as if she hadn't heard anything. She was completely acting like a queen. She didn't take off her disguise until she entered her room and there were no outsiders, and her expression softened.

"Xiaoyu, Lisa didn't hurt you, right?" Shen Enya's tone was obviously anxious, and her eyes roamed up and down Miss Qiao Er's body.

Miss Qiao Er rolled her eyes and turned her head to the other side, looking indifferent.

To put it bluntly, after so many years of grievance, Miss Qiao Er still can't let it go as soon as they meet, even if she really likes Shen Enya and is glad that she is her mother.

When Shen Enya saw her daughter like this, her eyes instantly dimmed. Before she could say anything else, Qiao Xinghai patted her on the shoulder: "You go change clothes first, and help me find one by the way. It needs to be a little more formal."

Shen Enya knew that Qiao Xinghai was deliberately pushing her away. She nodded slightly and went to the cloakroom. She changed into casual clothes and then left the bedroom to help Qiao Xinghai choose clothes.

"What do you mean?" Lao Qiao then patted his daughter on the shoulder, took a step back and sat on the sofa.

There were only two of them in the room, father and daughter, and Miss Qiao Er's true colors were revealed instantly: "You are so worthless. You just hooked your fingers and went back to me. Have you forgotten how you were ruthlessly abandoned in the first place?"

"What do you want?" Lao Qiao remained calm, knowing that his daughter was having trouble with them, and also knew that she liked Shen Enya in her heart.

"Of course I want to show her some color!" Miss Qiao Er muttered petulantly.

Lao Qiao nodded seriously, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking. He just asked, "How can I give her some color?"

"Ignore her for a few days and wait until she begs for our forgiveness!" Miss Qiao Er blurted out.

Lao Qiao continued to nod, but he couldn't tell whether he agreed or disagreed: "Then what?"

"Then..." Miss Qiao Er tilted her head, as if she was really racking her brains to think about it. She just thought about it for a long time, and finally just shrugged, "Forget it, that's it. Anyway, you guys..."

Halfway through her words, Miss Qiao Er saw Lao Qiao's gauze-wrapped palm, and her brows immediately wrinkled: "Why is your hand injured?"

Lao Qiao lowered his eyes and glanced at it, looking unconcerned: "I touched it accidentally, it's nothing serious."

"You have to be careful when doing things in the future. Wounds are easily infected. Also, leave the company's affairs to Qiao Lulu. Don't worry about it anymore. Your health is just a little better. Now that your wife is back, you have to take care of yourself. !" Miss Qiao Er started the nagging mode again.

She was afraid that Lao Qiao's health would be in trouble again. She could find the Ambergris Pearl to save him before, but if there was another problem in the future, she would not be able to find the second Ambergris Pearl.

Lao Qiao understood his daughter's thoughts, but just looking at her anxious little face, his mood became heavier and heavier. He knew in his heart that his and Shen Enya's physical conditions were not optimistic, and they were afraid that they would not be able to stay with their daughter for much longer...
