Stop pretending, the fake heiress is actually a master of metaphysics.

Chapter 74 Embroidered Shoes

Shen Nian put down her teacup, looked at Song Daiqing, and suddenly felt that all of this was boring and uninteresting.

"Madam Shen, do you remember what you just said?"

You said, "I promise I will never distrust you again."

Song Daiqing broke down, saying, "How can I believe you? Yingwei was pushed and was covered in blood; she might be scarred for the future. How can I believe you? Are you going to tell me you didn't do any of this?"

"She's already so sensible, what more do you want? Are you trying to drive her to her death?"

"She's my daughter too!"

Shen Zhaozhang said in a deep voice, "Shen Nian, you've gone too far this time. Apologize to Yingwei. Yingwei's past mistakes are now wiped clean."

Shen Nian turned to look at Shen Yingchuan and said, "What about you? Do you also think I should apologize?"

Shen Yingchuan looked at her, then at Shen Yingwei, who was almost covered in blood, and didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Shen Nian sighed: "That's why I said I don't believe it."

"And that is indeed the case."

Shen Yingchuan asked sharply, "What do you mean? You didn't push Yingwei."

"Whether I pushed it or not is unimportant. What's important is that you all believe I pushed it, right?"

"But did I forget to tell you that this banquet hall is filled with cameras that can see everything from every angle?"

The courtyard is designed in an antique style, and installing modern cameras would inevitably disrupt the overall aesthetic.

Therefore, the entire courtyard is equipped with miniature cameras that are difficult to detect.

Shen Yingwei's face turned deathly pale.

Shen Nian smiled slightly and raised her hand: "Butler, go and play the surveillance footage from just now."

"don't want!!!"

Despite the excruciating pain, Shen Yingwei struggled to her feet and tried to stop the butler's actions.

But it was clearly too late.

The butler pushed out a display screen taller than a person, and a few seconds later, a video was projected onto the screen.

Everything Shen Yingwei said and did was clearly recorded and played back on a high-definition screen.

Song Daiqing stared in shock at the scene before her, trembling and speechless.

The surveillance video was neither too long nor too short. After it was played, the Shen family remained silent for almost an eternity.

Shen Nian calmly asked, "That set of celadon cups sold for fifty million at auction. How do you plan to compensate us?"

"Oh, and Ms. Shen just falsely accused and framed me. I demand compensation for emotional distress, otherwise I will file a lawsuit against her. Shouldn't you pay that too?"

Song Daiqing looked at her and after a long while, she managed to squeeze out a "I'm sorry".

"No need."

Shen Nian said impatiently, "If 'sorry' were useful, what would we need the police for?"

"I'd be so grateful if you just stayed away from me from now on."

She threw the checkbook on the ground: "Write it down, and then get out of here."

My good mood from this morning has been completely ruined by the Shen family.

Shen Zhaozhang glanced at Shen Yingwei with a livid face, wrote down the amount of 80 million on the check, and handed it to Shen Nian.

Shen Yingchuan glanced at Shen Nian, then hesitated before saying, "Since there's surveillance footage, why didn't you show it to prove your innocence from the beginning?"

Shen Nian smiled and said, "If you had brought it out from the beginning, how could I have witnessed this spectacular performance that rivals the face-changing act in Sichuan opera?"

Shen Yingchuan asked, "Why are you so certain that we won't believe you?"

"Because that's the truth. Do you dare say you believed what I said just now?"

Shen Yingchuan was speechless.

"But since you didn't really add fuel to the fire just now, I'll give you one last piece of advice."

"Take that thing off your neck as soon as possible."

Two days later, the dark aura surrounding Shen Yingchuan had become increasingly intense.

The source was the peace charm that Shen Yingwei gave him.

Shen Yingchuan frowned, neither saying to remove it nor not to, but said, "I apologize to you on behalf of Yingwei for what happened today. She's not feeling well right now, so... let's take her away first."

Although Shen Yingwei did make a mistake, she was also hurt.

That blood-soaked back...

Shen Yingchuan couldn't understand why she would make herself look like this for a marriage contract that was so far away.

When did her parents ever say they didn't want her? The Shen family's assets will also be divided among her.

Shen Yingchuan felt angry at their lack of ambition and saddened by their misfortune.

"You don't need to apologize for her."

Shen Nian sneered, stepped forward, grabbed Shen Yingwei by the neck, and lifted her up: "I will ask for my own apology."

"Since Mr. Shen says that we can call it even, fine, then I'll settle things today and wipe the slate clean."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and slapped Shen Yingwei hard across the face.

"Once is enough, twice is bad enough, but three times is not enough. You should count for yourself how many times this has happened?"

The second time.

"Do you really think I have a very good temper?"

The third time.

"I'm just too lazy to argue with idiots, not that I'm truly without temper."

Fourth time.

"You brain-dead idiot, don't come near me and disgust me."

Fifth time.

……

By the end, Shen Yingwei's face was so swollen that it was completely unrecognizable.

She spat out a mouthful of bloody water, her words muffled.

"Don't you like framing people? If it happens again, I'll cut your tongue out myself."

Shen Nian gently patted her cheek, then grabbed her by the neck and threw her out like a dead dog.

Shen Yingwei crashed heavily to the ground, making her already battered back even worse.

Shen Nian let out a breath, feeling that her bad mood of the past few days had finally been released.

Indeed, it's best not to use words when you can solve things with your hands.

Seeing the other three standing there in a daze, Shen Nian simply uttered one word: "Get lost."

It was as if the group had come to their senses that they hurriedly helped Shen Yingwei up, got her into the car, and left Tiannan Mountain.

It was as if they were afraid Shen Nian would beat them all up as well.

The ginseng spirit popped out of Shen Nian's pocket and cheered, "Well done! Well done!"

"How dare you slander my attendant! Don't you even know your own limitations!"

Shen Nian smiled and said, "Actually, it's not entirely unjust."

After all, Shen Yingwei was indeed pushed by her.

But so what? Shen Yingwei was planning to frame her anyway.

Why not go with the flow and grant her wish?

Ginseng Essence:!

Shen Nian glanced at the broken porcelain shards on the ground again: "Oh, this cup isn't any antique, it's just a bunch of junk, the kind you can buy for ten yuan with free shipping on shopping apps."

Ginseng Essence:!

"Whatever, they deserve it. My retinue is the best!"

Shen Nian couldn't help but chuckle.

This little ginseng spirit is quite protective of its own.

"Alright, you've worked hard saving Grandma Gu today. Go to the vegetable garden; we don't need you for now."

The little ginseng hummed twice and ran off to the backyard with its shaggy legs.

Shen Nian figured she wouldn't see any members of the Shen family for a while, but that very evening, she received a call from Shen Yingjia.

Shen Yingchuan was in a car accident.

He was seriously injured and is currently in a coma in the hospital.

It seems they still didn't listen to her and threw away the wooden sign.

"Do you want to go see him?"

Shen Yingjia asked.

The Shen family is now in complete chaos. The cause of the maid's death remains unsolved, and now the eldest branch of the Shen family has run into trouble again.

"No, I'm not a doctor."

Shen Nianqi said, "I beat your sister Yingwei's head up like a pig's head today, but I didn't see you standing up for her."

Shen Yingjia chuckled twice: "If she hadn't done something wrong, you probably wouldn't have hit her."

Who knows if the female ghost has left or not? He dares not offend Shen Nian at this critical juncture.

Besides, he's been investigating some things regarding Shen Yingwei lately...

However, there's still no clue.

"Can I have my fortune told by you?"

Thinking of this, Shen Yingjia spoke up.

Shen Nian paused for a moment: "Three million per divination, no bargaining."

"...Didn't you only offer 300 divinations per session in your live stream?"

Shen Nian rolled her eyes. The live stream was earning faith power, not actually for those three hundred yuan.

"It doesn't count as me hanging up."
