    22. Shen Xitong’s embarrassment after his mind was revealed

    Shen Xitong was discharged from the hospital, but he had been injured for a hundred days and the plaster on his foot had not been removed. After she came back, the house was quite lively.

    “Qinglan, your sister has been discharged from the hospital. Because you missed the performance, she is very depressed now. Mom hopes you can accommodate your sister more and stop making her angry.” Chu Yunrong pulled Shen Qinglan aside and warned.

    Shen Qinglan looked at Chu Yunrong with quiet eyes. Chu Yunrong felt a little uncomfortable and turned her head sideways, unwilling to look at her daughter.

    “I will never provoke others unless they provoke me.” After saying that, Chu Yunrong left without looking at her.

    “Grandma, I’ve been in the hospital this month and I can’t come to see you. I’m really sorry.” In Grandma Shen’s room, Shen Xitong was sitting in a wheelchair.

    Grandma Shen took a look at Shen Xitong’s foot, which was wrapped in a plaster. She couldn’t tell how badly it was injured, “How is the foot?”

    Shen Xitong smiled shyly, “The doctor said that the recovery is going very well, and the plaster can be removed in half a month. After that, I have to be careful not to injure myself again and everything will be fine.”

    “That’s good. Let Mrs. Song make you some bone soup tonight, and you can drink more.” Grandma Shen had a loving look on her face. She was always very kind to her juniors.

    “Thank you grandma. But…” Shen Xitong looked at Grandma Shen and hesitated to speak.

    “What’s wrong?”

    “Grandma, I know that my mother has been blaming her for what happened to me. I have explained to my mother that my sister did not do it on purpose, but because I was not careful and did not stand firm. I have advised my mother many times not to blame my sister. After all, I did take away my mother’s love for my sister. It is right for my sister to blame me. Grandma, can you explain to my mother so that she can stop blaming her sister.”

    Shen Xitong said it sincerely, with his eyes lowered and a sad expression on his face, but he didn’t notice that the smile on Grandma Shen’s face gradually disappeared.

    “Xitong, have you been coming to our house since you were nine years old?” Grandma Shen did not answer Shen Xitong’s words, but asked seemingly unintentionally.

    Shen Xitong’s heart tightened, and he raised his eyes helplessly, met Grandma Shen’s loving eyes, and calmed down, “Yes, I still remember that when I first came to this house, grandma bought me a lot of new clothes.”

    “At that time, your mother had a mental breakdown because of Lan Lan’s disappearance. Your father adopted you from the orphanage for your mother’s sake. Your grandfather and I did not agree with this at the time, but your father insisted. Later, when we saw that you were indeed well-behaved, we accepted it.”

    Shen Xitong bit her lower lip, “Grandma, I…”

    Grandma Shen waved her hand to signal Shen Xitong to be silent, “All along, whether it is your father or your mother, they have indeed raised you as their biological daughter. They have even told the outside world that you are the daughter of the Shen family. We believe that we have never treated you badly in all these years, right?”

    Shen Xitong lowered his eyes and nodded, “Yes, everyone in the family is very good to me, and I like this family very much.”

    “After Lan Lan comes back, I admit that your grandfather and I do favor Lan Lan. After all, she is our biological granddaughter, and she is the biological granddaughter who has been owed by us for so many years. However, your father has always treated you two equally, not to mention your mother. She favors you and ignores Lan Lan. Anyone in this family with eyes can see it.”

    “I know, I have also advised my mother to be nicer to my sister, but my mother…” Shen Xitong said aggrievedly.

    “Let’s not talk about your mother’s problem for now. We are the only two left in this room now. Tell me the truth. Was it really Lanlan who pushed you downstairs?”

    Shen Xitong raised his eyes and met Grandma Shen’s gaze that seemed to see everything. Panic flashed through his eyes, “No, I was careless…”

    “Don’t fool me with your rhetoric. I have lived for more than eighty years and have never seen any big storms. Do I know your little thoughts? I have already asked Sister Song. There have been rumors in the capital these days that the Fu family intends to make Lan Lan their granddaughter-in-law. Do you like that child Heng Yi?”

    Shen Xitong didn’t expect that his hidden thoughts would be seen through by Grandma Shen and even revealed. He couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed, “Grandma, I don’t have it!”

    “Whether there is or not, I am here to tell you today, don’t worry about things you shouldn’t have. If you like Fu Hengyi, you can compete openly and openly. Grandma will never say anything about it. But if you set your mind on Lan Lan, I’m afraid our Shen family won’t be able to tolerate you.”

    Shen Xitong was startled, looked at Grandma Shen in disbelief, and explained in a panic, “Grandma, I really don’t have it.”

    “Xitong, grandma knows that you are smart, but don’t treat others as fools. Your mother’s heart is biased towards you, and she will believe whatever you say. But we are different. We know better than you what Lanlan’s temperament is. If she is really jealous because your mother prefers you, then I will be happy.” At least she really regards herself as a member of the Shen family.

    “What happened that day, I don’t care if you fell on purpose or accidentally, I can treat it as if you were careless. But if I hear something about Lan Lan being jealous of you in the future, then it won’t be so easy. Your mother will help you, but it is not your mother’s turn to make the decision in this family. Even if I die, your grandfather will still be there.” Grandma Shen’s words were not unstern. It could be said that she did not save any face for Shen Xitong.

    If it had been in the past, I’m afraid she wouldn’t have done this, but now her time was running out, and the days she could protect Shen Qinglan were becoming fewer and fewer, so she had to do this.

    Although she is usually kind, she has been with Mr. Shen through so many years of ups and downs. She has already experienced what she should have experienced, and she has been able to be cruel. Shen Xitong’s little weight is no match for her. Just a few words made Shen Xitong heartbroken.

    Shen Xitong was very embarrassed. Ever since she came to the Shen family, no one had said such harsh words to her, causing her to forget that she was just the adopted daughter of the Shen family and had no blood relationship with the family. They could support her, but they could also trample on her.This is the first time that she has so clearly realized that she has no willful capital in this family. The only thing she relies on is Chu Yunrong’s love for her. But in the end, Chu Yunrong is not her biological mother. Who can say how long this love can last?

    She left Grandma Shen’s room in despair, and bumped into Shen Qinglan who was about to come to see Grandma Shen. Seeing Shen Qinglan’s indifferent expression, Shen Xitong bit her lower lip and made a deep mark.
