Chapter 227: Chapter 227 Protecting the Shortcomings

Ye Yao followed Shen Zhe down from the second floor and felt her heart skip a beat when she saw the atmosphere below.

Ever since Shen Zhe was taken away by the police, Ye Yao had been feeling uneasy.

Initially, she had thought that the Shen Family would intervene and convince that girl to drop the charges, ensuring Shen Zhe would be fine. But unexpectedly, that girl had been so adamant, and not only had she refused to withdraw the case, but the Shen Family members even let Shen Zhe be detained for a week.

Now, everyone in the Shen Family must be blaming her.

To reverse the image they had of her in the Shen Family members’ eyes, she urged Shen Zhe to bring her back to meet his parents.

But from the moment she stepped through the door, the Shen Family members had not shown her a single pleasant expression.

She knew inside that things were not going well.

At this moment, Ye Yao truly regretted her actions!

If she had known that girl would be so stubborn, she wouldn’t have meddled and posted that message.

Originally, she just wanted to give the other party a lesson out of anger, but she hadn’t anticipated that it would backfire on her.

Although Shen Zhe had spoken up for her, he had left a bad impression on the Shen Family members.

From the beginning, she shouldn’t have harbored any hope for luck, knowing now that she should have apologized in public. If she didn’t get into Z University for graduate studies, she could try B University or C University— anything would have been better than the current situation where all the Shen Family members disapproved of her.

"Stupid girl, you actually dare to show up?" Shen Zhe didn’t give her a warm welcome as soon as he saw her.

Shen Weiyi didn’t bother to argue with a fool, because it would bring her own intelligence down to the other person’s level.

Seeing that girl ignoring him, Shen Zhe, livid with anger, stomped his foot and said, "I’m talking to you! What kind of attitude is that?"

It wasn’t until then that Shen Weiyi glanced at him indifferently and said, "Grandfather asked me to come over." In other words, if he had any complaints, he was free to take them up with Mr. Shen.

To be honest, she really didn’t care to visit the Shen Family.

Upon hearing that Mr. Shen had asked the stupid girl to come back, Shen Zhe first felt defiance, then something occurred to him, and he couldn’t help but smirk as he looked at her coldly, "Grandfather must have called you back to admit your wrongs and apologize to me. Stupid girl, you got me locked up for so many days; I will definitely settle this score with you properly."

"How would you like to settle it?" Shen Weiyi asked in a relaxed manner.

With an air of superiority, Shen Zhe said, "I want you to kneel in front of our ancestors’ memorial tablets and personally apologize to me. I also want Third Uncle to transfer twenty percent, no, ten percent of Shen Technology’s shares to me as compensation. Otherwise, this matter won’t end."

"Pfft—" Shen Weiyi couldn’t help but let out a laugh.

"What are you laughing at?" Shen Zhe scowled at her.

Shen Weiyi just gave him a cold look and scornfully said, "I’m laughing at how you still haven’t come to your senses after being locked up for so many days. Your brain is still so foggy that you actually start to dream in broad daylight."

"You..." Shen Zhe became enraged with embarrassment, "Stupid girl, it seems you are asking for a beating." As he said this, he suddenly moved toward her with the intent to strike her.

This was the old house, free of those meddling police officers. It would be easy for him to teach the stupid girl a lesson.

Shen Tan reacted quickly, stepping in front to shield Shen Weiyi, and said, "Second Brother, what are you trying to do?"

"Move aside!" Shen Zhe glared viciously at Shen Tan, who was getting in his way, "I’m going to teach this stupid girl a lesson on behalf of Little Uncle."

"Have you lost your mind?" Little Uncle was extremely protective; if that girl were to face injustice in the old house, knowing Little Uncle’s temperament, he could tear the Shen Family apart.

Shen Tan also thought Shen Zhe was being quite foolish and, not wanting to waste words with him, turned to look at Mr. Shen and said, "Grandfather, are you just going to watch Second Brother make a fool of himself?"
