Chapter 261 - Mending Their Relationship
Chapter 261: Mending Their Relationship
“What’s going on?” Qiao Wei, who was sitting on the sofa, was a little surprised when she saw this. She quickly asked, “Who made you angry? Or is it because Hanxing and her husband aren’t willing to come over?” Qiao Wei’s eyes couldn’t help but flash with excitement. Of course, she didn’t want Shen Hanxing to come over. She didn’t even want to think about the father and daughter mending their relationship and happily becoming a family.
Shen Hanxing’s existence was no different from reminding her over and over again how unbearable her past was. If it was possible, Qiao Wei hoped that she would never have to see Shen Hanxing in this lifetime!
However, Shen Yong’s heart was filled with hope. Qiao Wei could not splash cold water on him, but she did not mind adding fuel to the fire at this time. Qiao Wei sighed, “I knew it. Hanxing that child has a stubborn temper. Is she still unwilling to forgive me? How about... I personally apologize to her? And then invite her to come and visit?” After saying that, Qiao Wei’s eyes were red, and she looked like she was enduring humiliation.
“Is she even worthy of that?!” Shen Yong became even angrier after hearing this. He smashed the decorations on the table. “Letting her elders apologize to her? Is she not afraid of offending the gods and shortening her life?!”
“But Han Xing is now Mrs. Ji after all. The Ji family is powerful. If they use some tricks behind the scenes...” Qiao Wei wiped her tears. Leaning on Shen Yong’s shoulder, she softly said, “If it’s for you, then it’s okay for me to suffer a little. I’m just worried that Hanxing won’t forgive me. She’s very stony-hearted. She can even do such a ruthless thing to Sisi. Sometimes, I really can’t see through what this child is thinking.”
“Don’t go, don’t even think about going there!” Shen Yong’s anger was soaring. He snorted coldly, “She said that Ji Yan won’t be coming tomorrow and she will be coming by herself. When the time comes, you can do whatever you want. You don’t have to care about her.”
In the end, Shen Hanxing was still going to come over. A ruthless glint flashed across Qiao Wei’s eyes, a moment later, it turned into a pleasant surprise. She said, “Really? Hanxing isn’t angry anymore? That’s great. I’m just afraid that she will hold a grudge. After all, her status is now different from the past. No matter what she does, it won’t look good. But now it seems that it’s a good thing that she’s married. She now knows how to be tactful.” She looked at Shen Yong with a face full of joy. Then, she pretended to say unintentionally, “Now that I see that you and Shen Hanxing can mend your father-daughter relationship, it’s really great.”
Shen Yong’s actions paused, and a frightening coldness surged out from his turbid eyes. Yes, Shen Hanxing’s current status was no longer what it was in the past. The Shen family was no more than ants compared to the Ji family. Now that he had benefited from his status as Ji Yan’s father-in-law, Shen Hanxing could use her status as Ji Yan’s wife to make him suffer.
However, to Shen Yong, he could not bear to give up the benefits that were right in front of his eyes. If Shen Hanxing was not obedient... Shen Yong’s face darkened, and he made a decision.
At this moment, his youngest son, Shen Jie, rushed over like a small cannonball. He said, “Daddy, Daddy, quick, look. Doesn’t this fighter jet model look good?”
Shen Jie was only ten years old this year, and he was a pudgy lump. He had been pampered at home since he was young, and he had everything he wanted. He was extremely arrogant. At this moment, he was happily hugging the fighter jet toy. His chubby face was full of excitement. This model looked high-end and it was also very expensive.
“Xiao Jie, don’t disturb your father.” Qiao Wei hugged Shen Jie and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead. She smiled and asked, “Where did this model come from? Why don’t I remember that you have this toy?”
“It was given to me by an uncle outside!” Shen Jie played with the model fighter jet, mimicking the rumbling sound of the fighter jet. He said happily, “Recently, a lot of people have given me toys. Mommy, will these uncles keep giving me gifts in the future? I like these gifts!”
......
Although the Shen family was rich, they were only ordinarily rich. There were too many high-end luxury toys. Even if Shen Jie wanted them, he might not be able to have them. With the gifts that Shen Jie had received during this period... many people who wanted to form a relationship with the Ji family but could not find a way to do so turned their attention to Shen Yong.
Being fawned upon by others, getting everything they wanted without needing to open their mouths, and having someone deliver things to them just by curling their fingers? How great was that feeling? Just look at Shen Jie’s excited expression. Even a ten-year-old child could not escape such a temptation.
“Xiao Jie, don’t worry.” Shen Yong seemed to have made up his mind. With a strange smile on his face, he rubbed Shen Jie’s head. Then, he said, “In the future, there will be many people who will give you gifts. You can have whatever you want.”
“Yay, that’s great!” Shen Jie shouted excitedly, “Daddy is the best. I love Daddy the most!”
The next morning, Shen Hanxing changed her clothes and went downstairs. She slowly made her way to the Shen residence after having her lunch. Shen Yong, who had been looking forward to it since early in the morning, was already wearing a very dark expression. A storm was coming.
