Chapter 1257: Mei Feng’s Ending (22)
Mei Feng took a step back, completely unnerved by Shen Zihao’s declaration.
She looked at him with an expression of shock and disbelief.
She gulped and slowly said, “Zihao, you- you—”
“Take her away.”
A housekeeper appeared at Shen Zihao’s instruction. “This way please,” she ushered the stunned woman.
Before Mei Feng could say another word, Shen Zihao had turned and walked back into the house, with his back to her. She opened her mouth but eventually shut it again without saying anything.
She took in a deep breath and then went home to the Shen family residence.
But the moment she arrived home, she saw the housekeepers filing out of the house, one at a time.
Mei Feng was shocked and dashed up to them, asking, “What are you people doing? Did I ask you to leave?”
The housekeepers did not look at her. They instead walked around her and continued to leave.
In a panic, Mei Feng grabbed one of them and said, “What am I going to be eating tonight if all of you leave? I won’t allow this!”
“There’s no longer a master in the house. Are you going to keep a bunch of people here to look after an empty house?” A stern voice suddenly spoke. Mei Feng froze.
She spun around and saw Old Master Shen walking out.
He held a walking stick and was aided by someone. He stood there staring at Mei Feng sternly and with a look of despise, like she was a piece of trash.
Mei Feng choked and lowered her head. She spoke, “Dad, what brings you here?”
Senior Master Shen laughed derisively and said, “Don’t call me Dad. I’ve never recognized you as my daughter-in-law.”
Mei Feng fell silent.
She took a step towards him and continued, “Dad, whether you recognize me or not, I’m still Shen Xiu’s wife. Shen Xiu just passed away a few days ago, you can’t treat me this way.”
“Treat you which way?” The Senior Master chortled, pointed at the extensive land and continued, “I built this mansion for Shen Xiu before you got married, it belongs to me. It is not his property. Now that he is dead, I am taking it back. You have any objections?”
Stunned, Mei Feng said, “But Dad, where will I stay then?”
Senior Master Shen lowered his gaze and replied, “I don’t know.”
He didn’t know.
So he really didn’t care about her?
She started to panic. “Dad, you can’t just abandon me. I’m Shen Xiu’s wife!”
Senior Master Shen sneered, “Wife? Did you give him children and bring them up? Or took good care of him? When he had an attack and died, you were in the room and you heard nothing. A woman like you doesn’t qualify as a wife.”
Senior Master Shen was an elderly man. He had already greyed overnight because of Shen Xiu’s demise, hence his grandsons Shen Liangchuan and Shen Zihao hadn’t told him about what Mei Feng had done.
But even so, Senior Master Shen was already angry with her.
She stood rooted to the ground in a daze.
Children, still it was about children.
Ultimately, it was because she had had no children.
That was why she had spent all of those years getting into Shen Zihao’s good books. It was in hopes that if Shen Xiu died before she did one day, Shen Zihao would treat her kindly.
But now, Shen Zihao was on bad terms with her.
And if she didn’t have the house, who was going to look after her when she got old?
As she stood there in a daze, someone had already packed her belongings into three large suitcases and brought them out.
Senior Master Shen then lowered his head and ordered, “Let’s go.”
At that instruction given, everyone in the villa left. Finally, even Mei Feng was dragged out of the house by the security officer. Then the main gate of the property was shut and the lock snapped with a loud clang.
