Third Master, please restrain yourself. Our marriage is a marriage of convenience.

Pei Jinhe took a glass of juice and sat down opposite Shen Hanyin, placing her bag on the table. She smiled and said, "Sister, you're here too."

With her fiery red lips and a fitted red dress, Shen Hanyin exuded a powerful aura and breathtaking beauty: "The Qin family and our Shen family have been friends for generations, so I naturally couldn't miss Grandpa Qin's birthday banquet."

She noticed the necklace Pei Jinhe was wearing and chuckled, "Was this necklace a gift from Huai Yu?"

Pei Jinhe glanced down at the necklace around her neck, and thinking of the tingling sensation when the man's fingertips brushed against her skin, she nodded shyly, "Yes."

Shen Hanyin smiled broadly: "It suits you very well, it looks great on you."

One of the blue and white beads on this necklace is enough to buy an apartment in Kyoto. Her younger brother really cares about his wife.

He knows how to cherish his wife, which is commendable.

The two chatted about Shen Youcheng and Shen Tingshan.

Shen Hanyin asked with concern, "Have they been giving you any trouble these past few days?"

Pei Jinhe ate her pastry in small bites: "No, with Shen Huaiyu around, they wouldn't dare do anything to me."

Shen Hanyin warned, "My brother is no pushover; you need to be careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Youcheng walked over.

The man wore a well-tailored suit, had a tall and slender figure, and a handsome face with a gentle and refined appearance. A faint smile played on his lips, making him look gentle and elegant.

"Little sister, what are you and your sister-in-law talking about?"

Shen Youcheng's eyes swept over Pei Jinhe, his gaze sinister and cold like that of a venomous snake.

She's really beautiful.

He has slept with countless celebrities and models, but none of them can compare to Pei Jinhe in terms of looks.

Not to mention that beauty is Pei Jinhe's least noteworthy advantage.

His younger brother is really lucky.

The old lady always considered his needs and made plans for him.

They even found him a wife who was both beautiful and capable.

Shen Hanyin's smile immediately vanished: "What's it to you?"

Shen Youcheng looked displeased: "I'm your own brother, why are you always siding with outsiders?"

Shen Hanyin scoffed, "Sorry, I don't have a trash brother like you."

She was abused by her mother when she was a child, and Shen Youcheng always stood by and did nothing.

He also liked to steal her things and frame her.

Every time Shen Youcheng makes a mistake, she gets implicated.

Seeing her being punished, Shen Youcheng continued to mock her, taking advantage of her misfortune.

She would never admit that such a scumbag is her brother.

"Is Young Master Shen all better? I just don't know if he's fully recovered?" Pei Jinhe said, her eyes sweeping over Shen Youcheng's lower body, her intentions obvious.

"you!"

Shen Youcheng's sore spot was touched, and his face immediately turned cold. His eyes, which were filled with fierce anger, looked at Pei Jinhe.

If it weren't for Pei Jinhe, how could he have become a half-crippled person?

Pei Jinhe raised an eyebrow, a half-smile on her face: "I advise the young master to take some time to see a few more doctors for a check-up; there might still be a cure."

Shen Youcheng was furious. He glared at Pei Jinhe and turned to leave.

He has been privately consulting with many doctors in this field these days, but without exception, the results have been the same.

They all told him to be more restrained in his relationships with women from now on, otherwise the problem would get worse and worse, and he might even become completely useless in the end.

For someone who is promiscuous and loves to philander, such an end is worse than death.

After Shen Huaiyu died.

He will not let Pei Jinhe off the hook!

Shen Hanyin asked, puzzled, "Jinhe, what's wrong with him?"

Pei Jinhe took a sip of her juice: "If nothing unexpected happens, he's practically crippled."

Shen Hanyin's eyes widened in astonishment: "Is it what I thought?"

Is he/she partially disabled in that area?

Pei Jinhe nodded: "That's exactly what you think."

Shen Hanyin showed him no sympathy whatsoever: "Did he provoke Huai Yu again?"

She knew Shen Huaiyu's personality very well. If Shen Youcheng hadn't provoked him, he wouldn't have dared to lay a hand on Shen Youcheng.

"He instigated Xu Yunrou to kidnap me," Pei Jinhe explained in a few words.

Shen Hanyin gloated: "He deserves it."

This is what they call "you reap what you sow".

the other side.

Shen Tingshan gave Shen Huaiyu a cold look and snorted, "Bringing such a low-class woman here, aren't you ashamed?"

An adopted daughter from a second-rate family is not worthy of entering the Shen family's door!

I really don't know what the old lady was thinking!

Shen Huaiyu swirled the wine in his glass, speaking casually, "You, with your mistress and illegitimate child, aren't ashamed? What's so shameful about me having my own lawfully wedded wife?"

These words sound light and casual, seemingly without any temper, but in reality, they are deliberately aimed at hitting a nerve.

Wu Min was a mistress who rose to power. Although Shen Youcheng claimed to be an adopted son, everyone in the upper class was shrewd enough to see the resemblance between Shen Youcheng and Shen Tingshan.

Normally, people know to see through things but not say it outright, since offending the Shen family brings no benefit.

Shen Tingshan was so angry that his face turned red.

Qin Yuyang clicked his tongue: "Old man, at your age, wouldn't it be better to enjoy your retirement? Why do you have to court death?"

Liang Xuyan chimed in, "Some people just love to court death, what can you do about it?"

Shen Huaiyu sneered, "You're getting old, stop making a fool of yourself. After all, you don't have much face left to lose."

The three of them, working in unison, infuriated Shen Tingshan.

He growled angrily, "Shen Huaiyu! I'm your elder!"

Shen Huaiyu said without any mercy, "I don't acknowledge you as my elder."

Qin Yuyang looked directly into Sheng Tingshan's eyes, which were filled with anger, and said calmly, "Mr. Shen, if you've come to attend my grandfather's birthday banquet, I'm very welcome. But if you've come to cause trouble, then I'll have to ask you to leave."

Sheng Tingshan was furious. He glared at Shen Huaiyu with displeasure, then turned and left angrily.

Liang Xuyan scoffed: "What use is a father like that?"

Shen Huaiyu suppressed his inner rage and remained calm: "That's why I don't admit it."

If it weren't for his grandmother's sake, he would have packed up their whole family and dumped them in a war-torn region abroad long ago.

Shen Hanyin went to greet her other ladies, while Pei Jinhe, who didn't recognize anyone, ate pastries and scrolled through her phone, feeling utterly bored.

With no one to bother me, I'm quite happy to have some peace and quiet.

As time went on, more and more people came.

Jiang Jing and her little follower arrived here and immediately spotted Pei Jinhe sitting in the corner eating pastries and playing on her phone.

After returning from the hospital last time, she searched everywhere for Pei Jinhe's whereabouts, but found nothing.

She had been searching for days without success, but she unexpectedly ran into the person here today.

It's true what they say, "You can search high and low without finding it, but then it comes to you effortlessly."

Jiang Jing swaggered up to Pei Jinhe, her tone laced with condescension: "What do you want from me here?"
