Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Auntie said you got married, is it true?

Having obtained Shen Yanhe’s WeChat business card, Fu Yanhe’s forehead was marked by three black lines when he saw her nickname.

Diamond A: You recommended. (Young Master) Here’s 50 V for listening to my revenge plan.

Fu Yanhe was speechless for quite a while before he finally moved his fingers and added Shen Yanhe on WeChat, waiting for her to accept.

-

At that time, in the Shen Family villa.

An elderly lady with her white hair fastened with a hairpin, dressed in a simple floral shirt and black linen trousers, looking very alert, was sitting on the sofa.

This elderly lady was Shen Guowei’s mother and Shen Yanhe’s grandmother, Ye Min.

Ye Min looked around and furrowed her brow, asking with noticeable displeasure to Shen Guowei sitting opposite her: "Guowei, didn’t you say Yanyan was also here? Why haven’t I seen her?"

That very morning, Ye Min had been weeding in the vegetable garden, planning to pick a few vegetables to give to the old man next door who was obsessed with his pharmacology work for a taste of freshness.

Shen Guowei suddenly turned up, saying there was a big incident in the city, and that she had to hurry to the city with him.

Worried that something had happened to either Huai or Yanyan, she hastily followed him to the city.

But she ended up being brought here.

"Mom, don’t worry, Yanyan is on her way here right now. And don’t be anxious, it’s not about Yanyan or Huai getting into trouble, it’s my issue," said Shen Guowei in comforting tones, even managing a wry smile by the end.

"You? What trouble can you possibly get into? The sky could fall and you’d be just fine," Ye Min sized up Shen Guowei with skepticism, scoffing at the thought.

She knew her third son was always full of crafty ideas.

Out there, if anyone got into trouble or suffered a loss, he would certainly not be the one.

After all, he was the person who could even swallow his sister-in-law’s compensation money and look on as his own mother knelt down begging him to help pay for Shen Huai’s treatment.

"Mom, Guowei is telling the truth. We’ve indeed encountered a serious problem this time, and it’s related to Shen Yanhe," said Gandan Xue, who had been hiding upstairs, as she came down wearing a mask and strode directly up to Ye Min.

Ye Min had never liked her daughter-in-law Gandan Xue. Seeing her come down, she didn’t spare her much of a glance, only when Gandan Xue mentioned that this matter was related to Shen Yanhe did she frown and look at her: "Yingying’s mother, what do you mean by this?"

"Mom, look at my face." Gandan Xue pulled down her mask.

The face that was revealed was covered with dense red rashes, her eyelids swollen, making her appear much like a toad.

Ye Min was taken aback: "What happened to your face? Is it disfigured?"

"All because of Shen Yanhe!" Gandan Xue felt wronged. "She went nuts the other day, barged into our house and beat up me and Yingying. Knowing I’m allergic to milk, she still force-fed me milk, causing my face to remain like this."

"Not only my face, she also stole Yingying’s fiance, and Guowei’s company is about to go bankrupt because of her too!"

At the mention of Shen Yanhe snatching away Shen Yingying’s fiance, Ye Min’s expression changed drastically, her face immediately darkening.

Shen Guowei frowned and scolded her: "Danxue, stop talking!"

"Let her speak!" Ye Min took a deep breath, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Gandan Xue: "When did Yanyan snatch Yingying’s fiance? And Guowei’s company is going bankrupt because of Yanyan? What’s going on?"

"Explain everything to me clearly!"

Gandan Xue’s eyes gleamed subtly as she exchanged a glance with Shen Guowei, then eagerly sat down next to Ye Min and exaggeratedly recounted everything Shen Yanhe had done to their family recently.

It skillfully glossed over the real reason she forced Shen Yanhe into taking her place in the marriage.

It was twisted into Shen Yanhe overhearing her and Shen Guowei talking, learning how wealthy the Fu Family was, and then volunteering to marry in place of Shen Yingying.

"It’s nothing for Guowei and me to suffer a bit of grievance, but it’s pitiful for my Yingying." With tears and snot, Gandan Xue wiped the tears streaming down her face, sobbing, "If it hadn’t been for Yanhe, Yingying would have been able to marry her fiancé, but now she can only..."

"Mom, when you meet Yanyan later, you must speak to her properly! We can’t even write a word of ’Shen’, how could she treat us relatives like this?"

After listening to her, Ye Min was unable to come back to her senses for a long time, her heart unclear whether it was anger or sorrow.

In all honesty, apart from slapping her, she didn’t believe anything else Gandan Xue told her.

After all, Yanyan was a girl she had raised herself, she knew she was somewhat impulsive, but her nature was absolutely kind.

And she wouldn’t have done something like stealing her cousin’s fiancé or trying to ruin her own uncle’s company.

Yanyan was just a young girl barely in her twenties, where would she get such capabilities.

Besides, with a matter as significant as marriage, she would definitely inform her, not secretly give herself away without making a sound.

Gandan Xue saw Ye Min’s face was a bit complicated and ugly but not as angry as she had expected, which made her feel very upset.

She cursed inwardly at this old hag, whose heart only cared about Shen Yanhe, while her own family was almost driven to death without seeing her trying to help.

"Mum, say something!"

Ye Min came back to her senses, her face grim as she looked at Gandan Xue and stated forcefully, "I don’t believe your one-sided story."

"When Yanyan comes, if things are really as you say, then I will have Yanyan properly apologize to you."

"But I believe that the child I raised with my own hands wouldn’t be so devoid of decency as to steal her cousin’s fiancé or ruin her own uncle’s company!"

Gandan Xue and Shen Guowei’s faces instantly soured.

They hadn’t expected that after hearing all that, Ye Min could still be so rational.

And it looked as though she wasn’t entirely on their side.

Seeing Shen Guowei’s ugly face, Ye Min also felt somewhat uncomfortable; after all, this was her own son, whom she had brought up with much difficulty, and she did feel a bit of heartache.

But what pained her more was her granddaughter, who had no parents and whom she had raised bit by bit.

If she had truly done nothing, yet she rashly believed others and accused her, how heartbroken she would be!

As the atmosphere in the living room grew tense, a Maybach pulled up outside the Shen Family villa.

Shen Yanhe opened the car door, stepped out, and waved back towards Hang Mushan in the driver’s seat, "Thanks, I’ll treat you to a meal next time."

Hang Mushan grinned, "Sure, I’ll be waiting for that meal then."

Watching Shen Yanhe enter the Shen Family, Hang Mushan wasn’t in a rush to drive away.

He squinted at the villa before him, leaned back in his seat, took out his phone, and made a call, "Hey, could you look up the Shen Family of Daxia for me..."

-

Shen Yanhe strode into the Shen Family villa, interrupting the three people in a standoff.

Gandan Xue was about to greet her, but saw Ye Min get up even faster and walk up to Shen Yanhe with a serious expression, asking her, "Your third aunt says you’re married, is that true?"
