Chapter 301 - 301 Women, Stay Away
301 Women, Stay Away
Emotion surged in Lian Jing’s eyes. His rival in love was challenging him. No man could tolerate it any longer!
Shen Yin hurriedly grabbed his arm and advised him nervously, “Lian Jing, I told you to go back. Don’t cause trouble here.”
Seeing that the matter was about to blow up, Cheng Luo decided to act. She stood between the two of them and told Cheng Huo to shut up.
The Cheng Family depended on the two siblings. They could not afford to fall out with the Lian Family.
Lian Jing could not take it anymore. He did not want to see Cheng Huo again, nor did he want Shen Yin to plead with him for another man’s sake. His long and narrow eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred. “I’ll ask you one last time. Are you leaving with me or staying in the Cheng house?”
By now, Shen Yin did not want to implicate Cheng Huo. She helplessly let go and nodded. “Alright, I’ll come with you, but this doesn’t mean that we’ve reconciled. The problem between us hasn’t been resolved.”
However, Lian Jing did not want to listen to her nonsense. He grabbed her hand and turned to walk out.
As soon as she got into the car, Shen Yin avoided his hand like plague. She shrank against the door and tried her best to distance herself from him. “What about Nian Nian and Meng Meng?”
“The Lians have more than one car,” Lian Jing said sarcastically. He glanced sideways at the woman who had edged far away from him and instantly felt angry. “What are you doing? You were the one was involved with another man first, right?”
“Don’t malign me.” Shen Yin frowned and glared at him unhappily. “I told you a long time ago that there’s nothing going on between me and Cheng Huo. I don’t like him either.”
“Then why did you leave with him?” Lian Jing lowered his eyes and stared at her sinisterly. He could not help but reach out to touch her soft cheek.
Shen Yin waved him away and continued to glare at him. “You were the one who wanted to send Mo Ru home.”
“When did I say that I was going to send her back?” Although she had slapped Lian Jing’s hand aside, he did not look displeased. Instead, he forced a smile.
Now they were alone in the car. Lian Jing liked to feel that she belonged only to him. The car was filled with her faint fragrance.
At first, he thought this sweet smell was the perfume she wore, but after spending some time with her, he realized that it was her natural scent.
Shen Yin frowned, feeling even angrier at his self-righteous denial. She opened the car door and prepared to leave.
Lian Jing hurriedly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back into the car. “Zhong Xin, drive.”
“Yes.” Only then did the dutiful secretary and the chauffeur get back into the car.
Along the way, the two of them looked out of the window. Neither of them took the initiative to speak again.
When they returned home, Old Master Lian was in the garden, looking at the new tree that had just been planted that day. When he saw them return en masse, he immediately smiled and bent down to hug Shen Nian, who had run over to him. He rubbed his head. “Dear boy, did you go out with your parents to play? Why did you leave so early in the morning without eating?”
Shen Nian paused. He turned around and looked at his parents, who were obviously in a bad mood. He casually made up a story and said, “Dad brought us out to see the sunrise. Great-Grandfather, I’m so hungry. I haven’t had breakfast yet!”
“Aiyo, how pitiful. Quickly, come and eat with me!” Old Master Lian smiled kindly and gently as he pulled Shen Nian away. When they reached the dining room, he looked stern and asked in a low voice, “Did your father make your mother angry?”
Shen Nian blinked and looked at Old Master Lian innocently. “Why would you ask such a thing? Daddy and Mommy have a very good relationship.”
Old Master Lian snorted and pointed at his eyes. “Your Great-Grandfather is old, not senile. If something hadn’t happened, why would all of you go out so early in the morning? Your father even mobilized more than ten bodyguards. He still thinks I don’t know anything.”
Shen Nian could only smile foolishly. He took a bite of the fragrant egg that had been fried sunny-side up and explained softly, “They’re fine, Great-Grandpa. It’s just a small misunderstanding. They should be fine in a while.”
On the way back just now, he had carefully thought about what Auntie had said and felt that it made sense.
Lian Jing did not just pretend to be cold and calm. He really gave off a danger signal that warned women to keep away.
Even Shen Nian could tell because he was also like that. He was naturally not interested such things. His mother and godmother, Li Zi, were the only women he cared about. Now, he might, at best, include Auntie.
Therefore, Lian Jing might not be the crux of the problem. The most suspicious one was the woman with an unknown background who suddenly tried to interfere in his parents’ relationship.
Shen Nian made up his mind. After hurriedly finishing his breakfast, he returned to his room to study the surveillance footage from last night, trying to find out the woman’s true identity.
Meanwhile, Lian Jing had shamelessly squeezed into Shen Yin’s room. He suddenly felt indescribably happy when he looked at the angry woman in front of him. She could do whatever she liked as long as she did not run away from home, Anyway, he had long realized that he would always have enough patience for her.
