Rong Junhan was shocked to hear Mu Tangxue's words. The other Shens' eyes were wide opened in disbelief. They had always respected Rong Junhan, so nobody would dare to speak to her like that. Mu Tangxue was the first.
Seeing Rong Junhan wanting to start another fight, Third Aunt immediately charged forward and shielded Mu Tangxue from her."Eldest Sister, she is just a child. You really do not have to be this angry!"
Rong Junhan jeered at her."I am an outsider?"
"Don't be angry, Eldest Sister. What Mu Tangxue said is not totally wrong. She could not choose her birth. This is not something you can blame her for, right?"
"Then what do my sacrifices for all these years mean?" asked Rong Junhan.
"But she is still Eldest Brother's daughter!"
"Actually, it is possible for me to give in. Since the existence of the sisters are already known, I cannot say anything more. Although I am hurt, I will still accept the fact. But I will never let her stay here. As long as I do not know where she is and she will not appear in front of me, I can pretend not to know them. Then, I will be less bothered about them."
"But where should a child of the Shen family be if she does not stay here?" asked Third Aunt.
"Since I am the child of the Shen family, of course there should be a place for me to stay!" Mu Tangxue was not letting Rong Junhan get in her way this time."I am just an eighteen-year-old girl. Where can I go if I leave my family?"
"She's right, Eldest Sister. She is such a delicate young girl. If you let her wander on the street, how are we going to explain to Eldest Brother if anything happens to her?"
Seeing these two people supporting each other in the debate, Rong Junhan was burning with rage.
But Rong Junhan was not going to waste her time arguing with these two. She asked Grandpa Shen, "Father, can you agree to my request? I won't stop you from seeing her, but I do not want her to live in this mansion. She can live anywhere she wants as long as she does not let me see her. Am I asking for too much?"
"Grandpa..." Mu Tangxue did not give in. She begged Grandpa Shen.
"Qiqi had no intention of living in this mansion. But Mu Tangxue has no place to go. Since she is a Shen, of course I will take care of her."
"Huh, " Rong Junhan smirked."Then, you will see this coming weekend." Rong Junhan snatched her handbag and left the mansion. And Mu Tangxue was pressing her scalded wound and looked at Grandpa Shen.
"Grandpa..."
"Let's go to the hospital." Grandpa Shen motioned Third Aunt to come forward."Let Third Aunt go with you."
"But Father, Eldest Sister is getting angrier, " Second Aunt said helplessly.
"There is nothing we can do about this. Don't you know Junhan's temper?" Grandpa Shen glanced at everyone.
"Why can't you just move out and live with your sister?" Second Aunt asked Mu Tangxue. But Third Aunt laughed at the question.
"Don't you know the sisters do not get along well? Can they even live together? How can you all mistreat your family member for an outsider? Xue'er, come, I will send you to the hospital."
Mu Tangxue glanced at Second Aunt but did not say anything. She let Third Aunt hold her and walked to the main door.
"You did great today. You do not have to fear that woman at all."
Mu Tangxue laughed. Because she felt very good. Rong Junhan was just her father's fiancée, how could she be compared to her, his daughter? Moreover, Shen Jianchuan and Su Ziqing were a couple years ago.
"Eldest Sister is just jealous. Come to think of it, if your mother was a nobler lady than she was, she wouldn't be engaged with Eldest Brother. If you see things this way, then Eldest Sister was the third wheel between them."
Mu Tangxue agreed with Third Aunt. Anyway, there was still plenty of time for her to win the hearts of the Shens. She was a real Shen, wasn't she?
More importantly, she came to the Shen family before Mu Qiqi. So, she was at an advantage. Now that Third Aunt was her ally, she would be able to deal with Mu Qiqi more easily!
Despite what she thought, the truth was the other way round.
Mu Qiqi was indeed yet to return to the Shen family. However, she had Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao knew the Shen family for years. Of course he knew the preferences and taboos of each of them.
...
"Your second uncle is the deputy director of the Ministry of Land and Resources. He was a clumsy man when he was young. Your grandfather was busy with his military career during that time and your grandmother died early. So, he was literally raised by Rong Junhan. So, when you go to the Shens' mansion, he might be the loudest one on the opposition side."
"And your third uncle is a weapon engineer. He does not have much interaction with Rong Junhan. But after so many years, he already sees her as part of the family."
"As for your aunt, she is a bank executive. She is very close to Rong Junhan. They are like sisters."
"And as for Second Aunt, she is a righteous and capable woman. She always talks straight. On the other hand, Third Aunt is a tactful and fickle woman. These two women are not on good terms."
"As for the rest, Jing Yun had provided detailed explanations about their personalities and preferences on paper for you. You should make good use of these few days to read through the materials." Sheng Xiao passed the materials to Mu Qiqi.
"Do I have to please them?"
"No, you do not. You are my woman. Why should you be pleasing others?" Sheng Xiao frowned."I want you to conquer them. And one more, memorize their preferences so that you can avoid unnecessary conflict. This will help a lot."
Mu Qiqi took the materials and nodded. Then, she took the opportunity to steal a kiss from his lips."I know you are trying to help me."
"Then I shall look forward to your performance during the weekend."
Mu Qiqi nodded. If it was not for the sake of being with Sheng Xiao, she would rather be living with Su Zipei her whole life.
Of course, since Mu Tangxue was involved in this drama, she must do her best and put on the most perfect performance.
...
However, Mu Qiqi was not aware at all that Grandpa Shen had been in touch with the police these few days. He wanted to know how his son was framed by Papa Mu to the extent that he had to spend the rest of his days in the hospital.
Papa Mu had refused to admit it at first. But when Grandpa Shen had found all the people involved in the case, he finally opened his mouth."I knew it. Once I am here, people will come and bring up old scores."
"Therefore, it is better for you to confess early, " said the police officers, knocking on the table.
"Shen Jianchuan deserved it! Su Zipei was married to me already and he was still trying to get her back. We were already married at that time!
"So what was wrong with me digging a hole for him to jump into?
"But what I did not expect was that slut Su Ziqing could not forget about Shen Jianchuan even after marrying me. Although they did not meet up, I knew! I knew it all along!
"I knew Su Ziqing first! Not Shen Jianchuan. It was he who wanted to snatch her away from me.
"What kind of a good brother and a good friend was he? A good brother that snatched his friend's lover, was he even a good brother?"
