Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 187 Escape
"Clan leader!"

"Sister-in-law, I am sorry for you!"

The second master of the Shen family's voice trembled, and his face was filled with shame and embarrassment.

When he encountered danger and the refugee crisis, his wife Jiang Yun never cared about him.

It was the eldest sister-in-law who guessed that he was in crisis and had been trying to mediate. Otherwise, how could the second master of the Shen family be let off so easily?
On the surface, the second master of the Shen family was demoted, but in fact, the second master of the Shen family returned to Qinchuan City.

As long as Shen Yingjun can achieve some achievements, he can even take this opportunity to enter the court.

Mrs. Shen curled her lips and resisted the urge to roll her eyes. She didn't understand why Shen Yingjun had become so indecisive after leaving the Shen family for some time.

Could it be that some monstrous beast had befallen Haiqing City, causing the usually arrogant and bold Shen Yingjun to become hesitant?

The head of the Shen family calmly tugged at his sleeves and did not immediately help Shen Yingjun up. Instead, he looked at him and asked, "Yingjun, what are you thinking?"

"The matter has been delayed until now, just to get your attitude, Yingjun, if you keep avoiding it."

"I am disappointed."

As a victim, the head of the Shen family never blamed Shen Yingjun, nor did he vent his anger on Shen Yingjun because of what Jiang Yun did.

The Shen family members had long urged the patriarch to make a decision on how to deal with Jiang Yun. If he kept imprisoning people in the dungeon, even if it was reasonable, it would become unreasonable.

It was the clan leader who suppressed the incident single-handedly and forced Shen Yingjun to return to the city.

Shen Yingjun's ambiguous attitude now really makes the head of the Shen family feel disheartened.

Shen Mengwu observed Madam Shen's expression and couldn't help but say, "Second Uncle, it's not you who did anything wrong. What's the point of apologizing? Second Aunt has been planning this for a long time. Could it be that Second Uncle didn't notice anything at all?"

"If it weren't for Shen Fu..." Shen Mengwu changed her mind and said, "If my mother hadn't discovered something was wrong in time, it's hard to say whether the team leader would be alive now!"

Shen Mengwu was young and spoke up for justice, so no one blamed her. Instead, everyone stared at Shen Yingjun.

In front of everyone, Shen Yingjun sighed deeply, his face full of shame.

"Jiang Yun and I have different views. I slept in the study for a long time and didn't notice anything was wrong. I never thought of protecting Jiang Yun. I just didn't know how to deal with this matter."

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't been away from home for so long, Jiang Yun wouldn't have done such a thing, and the children wouldn't have become worse and worse under Jiang Yun's guidance."

Shen Yingjun frowned, feeling extremely guilty and self-blaming.

Before leaving home, the children were very sensible, except for Jiang Yun who was always noisy.

Shen Yingjun didn't understand why his children had changed so much in just a few years?

Shen Yingjun had been injured before and would never be able to have children in this life. Therefore, he attached great importance to Shen Mengyan and his son. He even specially invited a teacher to teach them at home, hoping that Shen Mengyan and his son would be sensible and not be corrupted by Jiang Yun.

Up to this point, Shen Yingjun still hadn't gotten to the point. The disappointment in Mrs. Shen's eyes was so real that Shen Yingjun didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Sister-in-law, I will divorce my wife."

As the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs.

In official circles, Shen Yingjun may be very smart, but once it comes to family affairs, Shen Yingjun is also very confused.

"divorce your wife?"

"Second brother, do you know what Jiang Yun is planning? The clan leader has been infected with a poisonous insect for ten years. It's not fatal, but it can control a person's mind."

"Jiang Yun's evil ambitions are known to everyone. If you don't know how to handle this, then leave it to me. As long as you don't interfere."

Mrs. Shen spoke decisively and did not give Shen Yingjun an opportunity to refuse.

Waiting for Shen Yingjun to come back to deal with this matter is just a way of respecting Shen Yingjun.

After all, Jiang Yun is the second wife.

If you want to deal with her, you have to get Shen Yingjun's consent.

Of course, if Shen Yingjun insisted on protecting Jiang Yun, Mrs. Shen would not be afraid of offending Shen Yingjun.

She would rather break up with Shen Yingjun than not drive Jiang Yun out.

Mrs. Shen and Shen Yingjun exchanged a glance. Seeing the resolute look in his sister-in-law's eyes, Shen Yingjun knew that there was no turning back. Shen Yingjun just sighed and said nothing more.

"Sister-in-law, I have no objection." Shen Yingjun kowtowed to Mrs. Shen to express his apology to her.

"However, can Shen Mengyan be left to me? Sister-in-law knows that I will never have children again, so I want to teach Mengyan a lesson and see if I can change her."

Shen Yingjun rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, thinking about Shen Mengyan's current situation.

I just felt tired, and at the same time I felt a little resentful towards Jiang Yun. Such a good child was led astray by Jiang Yun.

I should have brought my children with me.

Shen Yingjun felt a little regretful.

"I really don't know what you are hesitating about."

Mrs. Shen frowned and glanced at him. She couldn't help but say, "Shen Yingjun didn't stand firm in protecting Jiang Yun, so... why did he remain silent?" Mrs. Shen couldn't figure out Shen Yingjun's thoughts for a moment.

Unable to figure it out, Mrs. Shen stopped worrying about it.

"Your words are enough."

Mrs. Shen didn't care about the outcome of Shen Mengyan's treatment. Shen Mengyan had already paid the price she deserved.

Judging from the burns all over Shen Mengyan's body, she will not have a good ending in the future.

Therefore, Mrs. Shen agreed readily.

After all, Mrs. Shen has always been narrow-minded, especially when facing someone who has hurt her daughter, Mrs. Shen's heart is smaller than a needle tip.

"Someone, bring Jiang Yun up here."

Shen Yi, who had been waiting nearby, rushed out immediately after hearing Mrs. Shen's words.

Mrs. Shen always leaves this kind of thing to Shen Yi.

Mrs. Shen is worried about other people.

Shen Fuyu stood in the corner and looked at Shen Yingjun.

The second master of the Shen family delayed for a long time without showing any substantive attitude. He always felt that Shen Yingjun was planning something.

Shen Fuyu became suspicious.

Something was wrong with Shen Yingjun, very wrong.

Thinking of what Mrs. Shen had said before, Shen Yingjun has always been clear about the distinction between public and private affairs, and will definitely not tolerate what Jiang Yun did.

Are you really not going to spoil it?
Or maybe people will change. Shen Yingjun has experienced so many things alone in Haiqing City, so it is normal for him to change.

Soon, the bad premonition was realized.

"Madam, Jiang Yun ran away."

In less than a cup of tea, Shen Yi ran back and announced the news to Mrs. Shen.

"What!?"

Mrs. Shen and the head of the Shen family stood up at the same time, their tone full of shock.

"There are many masters in the dungeon. How did Jiang Yun escape?"

"Is there no sound at all? Is someone interfering?"

A series of questions.

At the same time, Mrs. Shen and the head of the Shen family hurried to the dungeon, wanting to see the crime scene.

Shen Fuyu's gaze first fell on Shen Yingjun.
