    209. Drive out the Shen family

    This was the first time Shen Qinglan looked at Chu Yunrong so seriously. Ever since she returned to Shen’s house, she seemed to have never gotten along well with Chu Yunrong. The mother always looked at her with deep fear and confusion in her eyes.

    She wants to be good to herself, but has nowhere to start. Is she at a loss in the end?Shen Qinglan couldn’t explain clearly.

    She held a small key in her hand, which was lying in her palm. She picked up the box and opened it. She looked stunned when she saw the contents inside.

    Many memories that were almost forgotten suddenly came back to life when she saw these things. She picked up the Barbie doll wearing a blue dress.

    “Mom, does this dress look good on me?” The little girl sat on the bench and let her mother comb her hair behind her. She also didn’t forget to take a look at the new dress on her body from time to time, and then asked her mother.

    The mother smiled softly and fixed her daughter’s head slightly to prevent her from moving around, so as not to hurt her. “She is beautiful. Qinglan is the most beautiful baby in the world. She looks good in anything she wears.”

    “Then Brother Fu will also like it?” The little girl tilted her head and stared at her big black eyes.

    “I’ll like it, but your brother Fu is not at home now. He has gone abroad and won’t be back until the Chinese New Year.”

    “When is the New Year?”

    “It’s March now, I won’t come back until it snows.”

    “Then I’ll go play with Little Fatty in my skirt first. He said I don’t look good that day.”

    Mom smiled and nodded, “Okay, mommy will send you to school later. When the little girl sees you, she will definitely say you are beautiful. Mommy will tie a bow today.” As she said that, she picked up a blue bowtie hairpin from the side and put it on the little girl’s head. The butterfly’s wings would move. When the little girl shook her head, the butterfly’s wings would flutter up and down.

    Shen Qinglan put down the Barbie doll and picked up the photo album at the bottom. In fact, she had forgotten what she looked like when she was a child. Although Grandma Shen had a photo album, Shen Qinglan basically never looked through it.

    Turning over page after page, Shen Qinglan looked at it very seriously, still with a cold expression, but the emotions in her eyes were very complicated. She could not understand Chu Yunrong’s feelings. When she was looking for herself, she was already training at the Devil’s Base.

    The memories of the Shen family gradually faded away in young Shen Qinglan’s mind. What she remembered was what happened after she was abducted.

    What she remembers is the fear she felt when she was in the hands of human traffickers, the despair of losing hope while waiting, and the fear when she saw the little girl being maimed.

    She remembers the sound of the whip hitting her body and the burning pain; the feeling of suffocation when she was pushed into the water and almost drowned despite not knowing how to swim; she still remembers the warmth of the blood touching the skin, and the coldness of the rain in the rainforest.

    When she needed maternal love and care, Chu Yunrong was not by her side. When she found her, she had already passed the age of needing maternal love.

    The photo album awakened her sleeping memory. She looked at Chu Yunrong with a touch of sadness in her eyes.

    “Does this mean that we still lack a little bit of fate between each other? That’s why we keep missing out?” Shen Qinglan said softly, like a whisper, quickly dissipated in the air.

    She held Chu Yunrong’s hand. Her hand was as cold as her own. There were thin calluses on the tips of her fingers, which were slender and beautiful. Even at the age of over fifty, the skin on her hands was still tight and delicate.These are the hands of a pianist.

    Shen Qinglan’s eyes paused on Chu Yunrong’s left wrist. There was a shallow mark there, which seemed to be a stab wound. If you didn’t look carefully, you couldn’t find it. Thinking of what Shen Qian had said about Chu Yunrong’s suicide, she felt sour in her heart.

    “Mom.” Shen Qinglan spoke softly and called Chu Yunrong’s ear. This was the first time she called Chu Yunrong “mom” after returning to the Shen family.

    “Dad, is it really okay to leave Lan Lan alone?” The Shen family and Shen Junyu were very worried about Shen Qinglan being alone in the hospital.

    “Jun Yu, Qinglan is an adult. She has grown up. She is much stronger than we thought.” Shen Qian said.

    Shen Junyu was silent, of course he knew, but… he looked at Shen Qian, “Dad, since you decided to hide it from us, why did you choose to tell us now?”

    Since it has been concealed for more than ten years, why not continue to conceal it?

    Shen Qian’s eyes were filled with pity, “Because I don’t want your mother to be misunderstood again, and I also hope that your mother will get better soon. Jun Yu, your mother has been living a very hard life these years. Outsiders envy her life, having a husband who always loves her, and excellent children. But who could have known that such an enviable rich wife is actually a mental patient who needs medicine all year round to stabilize her condition?”

    “You shouldn’t have concealed it from the beginning.” Mr. Shen looked at his son with disapproval. In the past, Mr. Shen and Grandma Shen blamed her a lot for Chu Yunrong’s preference for Shen Xitong. Now that they think about it, he cannot be entirely blamed for this.

    “I did this improperly.” Shen Qian admitted simply.

    “Putting Yun Rong’s matter aside for now, what do you think about Shen Xitong’s matter?” Mr. Shen told Shen Qian about today’s decision and then asked.

    Shen Qian glanced at Fu Hengyi who was silent, pondered for a few seconds, and then said, “Dad, since Shen Xitong has moved out, let’s slow down this matter for now. Qinglan is also a celebrity now, and reputation is very important. Shen Xitong did something wrong, so public opinion will now be biased towards us, but if we make a statement at this time, it will feel like adding insult to injury. Qinglan is a member of the Shen family, and the public will target her.”

    Mr. Shen listened to these words. It concerns Shen Qinglan, so Mr. Shen will naturally consider it seriously.After thinking for a while, he nodded, “In that case, let’s take it easy for now. But her parents have already come to the door. They may say that we are occupying her daughter. Please take some time and take Shen Xitong to change her surname.”

    “Okay.” Shen Qian had no objection to this matter.

    Fu Hengyi didn’t speak. He just looked at the time and saw that it was almost dinner time. Then he stood up and said, “Grandpa, Dad, I’m going to bring Qinglan some food.”

    Shen Qian nodded, “I’ll go with you later, and then you and Qinglan will come back first.”

    “Dad, I’d better go. I’ll just keep watch over Mom’s place.” Shen Junyu wiped his face and said.

    Shen Qian waved his hand, “He has been very busy recently and rarely talked to Chu Yunrong. Now that he rarely comes back, he will just spend time with her.”

    When Fu Hengyi and Shen Qian arrived at the hospital, Shen Qinglan was still sitting in the ward. She looked at Chu Yunrong, wondering what she was thinking.

    “Qinglan, I want to come over for dinner.” Fu Hengyi said. Shen Qinglan stood up and walked over to eat. Shen Qian sat down beside the hospital bed, looked at his wife, and sighed deeply.

    Yun Rong, did I do everything wrong from beginning to end?

    Shen Qinglan ate quietly, and Fu Hengyi sat aside and watched her. After she finished eating, she followed Fu Hengyi home. But when she was waiting for the elevator, she found that she had forgotten her bag in the ward. Fu Hengyi went to help her get her bag, and Shen Qinglan stood there waiting for him, but she did not expect to meet Shen Xitong.

    Shen Xitong didn’t expect that he would run into her even when he came out to get water, “Why are you here?”

    Shen Qinglan glanced at her. She still had gauze wrapped around her forehead and some bruises on her face. Was she beaten?

    Shen Xitong looked at Shen Qinglan’s eyes as he looked at him, and then he remembered how embarrassed he was at this moment, “What are you looking at, Shen Qinglan, are you happy now that I have been kicked out of the Shen family? You finally got what you wanted, you can be proud.”

    Shen Qinglan looked at her inexplicably. Sometimes she really couldn’t understand this person’s brain circuit. Whether she was in the Shen family or not, whether she was a prosperous or a frustrated child, An Shen Qinglan’s eyes were all the same. She was just a passerby. As long as Shen Xitong didn’t touch her bottom line, she could even allow her to dance in front of her for the rest of her life.

    It’s a pity that Shen Xitong doesn’t understand this, “Shen Qinglan, I know you did what happened online. Although I have no evidence, I know it must be you. I won’t just let it go?”

    This is a high-end ward, there are not many people, and their conversation did not attract anyone’s attention.

    “Shen Xitong, you look like a mad dog biting people now.” Shen Qinglan said lightly, but the words he said made Shen Xitong blush.

    “Shen Qinglan.” Shen Xitong gritted his teeth.

    Shen Qinglan took a step forward, and Shen Xitong subconsciously took a step back. Her fear of Shen Qinglan had not disappeared since the last time.

    “Shen Xitong, people must learn to be taught a lesson. If you can’t learn it, I can continue to teach you until you learn it.” Shen Qinglan’s voice was slightly cold.

    Shen Xitong’s body trembled, “What do you want to do?”

    Shen Qinglan curled her lips slightly, “You will know.” Falling from the clouds is not over yet. I will make you lose everything you want, and let you know that you must not covet what is not yours.

    “Shen Qinglan.” Shen Xitong wanted to stop her and ask her clearly, but her last words made her feel very uneasy, but when she saw another familiar figure, she turned around in a panic and left in a hurry.

    She didn’t want Fu Hengyi to see her in such a mess.

    “Let’s go.” Fu Hengyi actually saw Shen Xitong, but he just glanced at it and looked away. He had no interest in why this woman appeared here.

    “Fu Hengyi, do you think I’m too cold-blooded?” Shen Qinglan suddenly spoke on the way home.
