Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 393 Tall and Capable Hunter vs. Lucky Beauty (28)

Upon hearing Shen Shuyi's heartless words and seeing her slightly protruding belly, Chen Wenyun burst into tears.

Chen Wenxian has grown a lot during this time. He has seen through his stepmother Fan Xiurong's true colors; she is a kind-faced but vicious person.

Before Shen Shuyi left the Chen family, she took great care of him and his sister, providing them with better food and clothing than anyone else in the village, so they never suffered any hardship.

But ever since Shen Shuyi divorced her father, her good days with them have come to an end.

Not to mention that he often goes hungry and cold, he almost died last time he was sick.
Grandmother also fell ill from anger caused by that wicked stepmother.
The father was overwhelmed with work and hadn't been home for several days. They were starving during the New Year, and had no choice but to come to Shen Shuyi.

Shen Shuyi is so kind-hearted, she definitely wouldn't have the heart to let them go hungry.

"Mother—" Chen Wenyun cried and tried to rush over to throw herself on Shen Shuyi.

Chu Yi quickly picked her up and put her outside the yard, where Chen Wenyun cried and threw a tantrum on the ground.

"Mother, do you really not want me anymore?"

Chen Wenxian didn't pull his sister up, but looked at Shen Shuyi with pleading eyes and called out the name he thought he couldn't bring himself to say.

"mother"

"Stop." Shen Shuyi crossed her arms. "Don't call me that. I'm not your mother."

“Your mother died long ago. Oh, and you also have a stepmother who keeps your father company in the study. Go back to where you came from.”

The onlookers pointed and whispered, saying that the two children were dressed so lightly and had been standing in the snow for so long, and that they were almost mothers themselves, so how could they be so heartless?

The Chen siblings were caught in a dilemma, so they simply sat down in front of Shen Shuyi's courtyard gate, making it clear that they would rather die than leave if they were not allowed to enter.

Shen Shuyi looked at the two scoundrels and then at the people outside who were playing moral blackmail because it wasn't their business and they were just jealous and didn't want her and Chu Yi to live too comfortably.

She let out a cold laugh.

"I suffered terribly as a slave in your Chen family back then. I finally escaped that misery and started my own life. You have a father, a stepmother, and a grandmother. Why are you bothering me here?"

"Chen Wenxian, Chen Wenyun, didn't your father, a scholar, teach you anything about propriety, righteousness, integrity, and a sense of shame?"

Now, those who were watching the commotion dared not speak up. Firstly, it was understandable that Shen Shuyi would refuse to let her former stepson and stepdaughter out, and secondly, Chu Yi was looking at them like a demon, which made them terrified!
Chen Wenyun cried so hard she could barely breathe. Chen Wenxian's eyes flickered, and he finally pleaded, "Mother, please save me and my sister. Father hasn't come home for days, and Grandmother is sick too. Can you come back to the Chen family to take care of us?"

"When my sister and I grow up, we will definitely take good care of you."

"Forget it, I'm afraid you'll have ulterior motives and harm me and the baby in my womb. I'm six months pregnant and need someone to take care of me. You're shameless to ask someone like me, who has no connection with you whatsoever, to take care of your every need."

"Dream on."

There's nothing else to criticize, since Shen Shuyi divorced Chen Xiucai so early on.

Shen Shuyi didn't waste any more words with them. "Husband, let's go back for dinner."

She wouldn't feel a shred of guilt even if those two ingrates starved to death outside her yard.

System 66 already said that all of this was Chen Mengzheng's conspiracy, trying to use the two children to gain her sympathy and make her a slave again. He was extremely foolish, no wonder she failed the provincial examination.

Shen Shuyi went back to eat, and after eating, she walked around the house and then took a nap.

When she woke up, the system told her: "Host, the Chen siblings are still squatting outside the yard. They both have snot hanging from their noses and have been hungry for most of the day."

Shen Shuyi was speechless. "Is Chen Mengzheng really so heartless as to leave his two children out in the freezing cold?" But then she thought about it and realized it wasn't impossible. Chen Mengzheng had never personally taken care of these two children for even a day, and his character was questionable. What wouldn't he do to achieve his goals?

It's a pity, she's not the kind of person who would be merciful to the enemy; they can stay outside as long as they want.

Chu Yi was worried that the two little brats outside would affect his wife's mood, so while his wife was taking a nap, he went to Qingcheng Village, dragged Chen Mengzheng out of the study, and, ignoring the obstruction and shouts of others, dragged Chen Mengzheng all the way to take his two brats away.

When Chen Mengzheng arrived outside Shen Shuyi's courtyard, he saw two children sitting frozen in front of a tree and was so angry that he shivered.

He never expected Shen Shuyi to be so ruthless.

"I need to see her before I leave."

Chu Yi grabbed his wrist and squeezed hard, making Chen Meng's face turn pale with pain. "I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise I will break your legs so that you will never be able to go on scientific expeditions again."

"You brute, have you no regard for the law?!" Chen Mengzheng was furious.

Chu Yi considered himself a rough and uncouth man, lacking the eloquence of a scholar; all he wanted was to protect his wife.

Hearing the commotion outside, Shen Shuyi put on her cloak and hood and went out, slapping Chen Mengzheng across the face.

With a "smack," Chen Mengzheng's head was knocked to the side.

Shen Shuyi said coldly, "Chen Mengzheng, we have long since severed all ties. Why did you send these two children to bother me?"

"Are you being a masochist? You're divorced and you still expect me to raise your children?"

"Calling you shameless and heartless is too lenient. Do you think I can't see through your trick of using children to gain sympathy?"

Chen Mengzheng, whether stunned by the beating or the scolding, stared unblinkingly at Shen Shuyi.

He couldn't even remember what his ex-wife looked like after two years. In just two years, a young girl turned into a haggard old woman with brown spots on her face at only eighteen years old.

At first, he was thinking of his deceased wife, so he didn't touch Shen Shuyi. Later, as she became uglier day by day, he couldn't bring himself to do it. But seeing how devoted she was to her child and how filial and sensible she was in taking care of her mother, he endured it.

Otherwise, I would have divorced such a haggard wife long ago.

But is the woman who slapped him really the same Shen Shuyi from before?

Her face was delicate and fair, her skin was porcelain white and glowing, her jet-black hair was loosely tied up, and she had bright eyes and a snow-white complexion. She clung to the arm of the rough man in a coquettish manner.

She was completely different from before, like a fairy maiden from heaven.

As Chen Meng looked at Shen Shuyi's beautiful face, he suppressed his anger after a few moments of thought and softened his tone.

"Shuyi, I want to talk to you alone."

Just then, Fan Xiurong, who had learned that Chen Mengzheng was being dragged away, brought the village chief of Qingcheng Village to Lihua Village to seek justice, only to witness this scene.

Although Fan Xiurong went back to her parents' home in a fit of anger, she had been waiting for Chen Meng to come and persuade her to go back. Unexpectedly, her cousin came to Lihua Village to find Shen Shuyi!
The last time I saw Shen Shuyi was in the county town. Today, when I saw her again, her eyes were filled with shock and her heart was filled with horror.

Shen Shuyi has changed so much. She is wearing a fine red jacket and a snow-white fox fur cloak. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she is a pampered young lady from the city.

Looking at herself, she had already become a haggard old woman in less than a year since marrying into the Chen family, making her feel ashamed and resentful in front of Shen Shuyi.

Fan Xiurong was seething with anger, not wanting Shen Shuyi to have an easy time. She loudly spread rumors, "Shen Shuyi, you and my husband are divorced but you're still flirting with each other. What do you mean by that?!"
