Chapter 591: Chapter 591 Exposing One’s Background 1

Shen Jianhua also strode over and, upon seeing Shen Mianmian standing behind He Nan, his face darkened, "Mianmian, come over."

In the past few months, he had been working himself to death at the kiln factory, and there his daughter was, looking rosy and well-fed from the money she’d taken; he barely recognized her.

He Nan ignored Zhou Lanfang who was standing next to him and looked directly at Shen Jianhua, "Uncle Shen, if there’s something you need to discuss, please wait until after school."

Having finally caught Shen Mianmian, Shen Jianhua was not willing to let her go. He puffed out his chest, assuming the posture of an elder, "He Nan, this is our family matter, and I hope you don’t interfere."

Before He Nan could respond, Shen Mianmian poked her head out and added, "I’ve long been disassociated from you all, what family matters are left to discuss?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Lanfang and Shen Jianhua were both enraged. Zhou Lanfang’s face twisted viciously as she said, "Disassociated? What gives you the right? You are my flesh and blood. If you want to disassociate, then return the money I spent on your upbringing! And your flesh is mine, too; if you’re so capable, cut it off and give it back to me."

Taking advantage of the fact that Shen Mianmian didn’t know her own origins, Zhou Lanfang shamelessly made unreasonable demands.

Shen Jianhua said nothing, but he glowered at Shen Mianmian, evidently thinking the same as Zhou Lanfang.

"Cut off flesh?" Shen Mianmian sneered, looking at Zhou Lanfang with disdain, "Was I born to you? Even if I were to cut off flesh, it wouldn’t be for you, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions on Shen Jianhua and Zhou Lanfang’s faces changed instantly, and even He Nan showed a flicker of surprise in his eyes; he had not expected her to know about her origins already.

Taking advantage of their momentary shock, Shen Mianmian dashed into the school. By the time Zhou Lanfang reacted and tried to follow, the gatekeeper stopped her at the entrance.

"This is a school, only students from this school may enter."

"That girl who just went in is my daughter."

"Even if you were her father, that wouldn’t matter."

"You..."

Zhou Lanfang was seething with anger, but this was the city, not the countryside; she dared not make a scene.

"Jianhua, didn’t you see that damned girl go in? What are you still standing there for?"

Shen Jianhua was still stunned by Shen Mianmian’s words, but upon hearing Zhou Lanfang, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let’s wait for her to come out here."

Hadn’t He Nan said not to disturb Mianmian’s classes? Once school was out, He Nan surely would have no reason to meddle further.

"Are you even a man?" Zhou Lanfang cursed, slapping her thigh angrily.

"Shut up."

Shen Jianhua roared, and she immediately lost her temper.

He Nan’s gaze swept over the two of them before he turned and walked away.

Shen Jianhua broke out in a cold sweat under his scrutiny. After sitting under a tree to calm down for a while, Shen Jianhua asked, "How did Mianmian come to know about her origins?"

"How would I know?" Zhou Lanfang said through gritted teeth, "It must have been that old cadaver Zhao Xianlai who told her."

Shen Jianhua found her words vulgar and shot her a glare, "Don’t make wild guesses."

"Then who else could it be? I was saying why this damned girl has suddenly become so bold. Turns out she knows about her own origins," Zhou Lanfang grew angrier the more she thought about it, fixing her gaze on Shen Jianhua as she demanded, "Jianhua, give it to me straight, with which temptress did you father this cursed girl?"

In the past, when she suspected Shen Mianmian’s origins, she had confronted Shen Jianhua in a huge argument, which was ultimately left unresolved. But she was convinced that Shen Mianmian was the child Shen Jianhua had fathered with another woman.

Over the years, in order to make Shen Jianhua provide for Zhou Siyu, she had not brought up the issue again. Now that the little bastard knew about her own origins, Zhou Lanfang couldn’t help but ask again.

She was determined to see which vixen had seduced her man behind her
