Chapter 515: You come back when your son graduates

~8 min read 1,434 words

Mrs. Li was so angry that smoke was practically coming out of her head, but she could only glare angrily at Shen Jingjing's unyielding figure as she left.

"Simply preposterous!"

A sharp shout rang out, startling Mrs. Li. She looked at Li Wanchang, whose eyes were burning with raging fire.

"You knew this company was Shen Ci's mother's, so you deliberately made things difficult for others, right?" Li Wanchang looked at his wife and questioned.

Mrs. Li was already full of anger and grievance from having just apologized to the cleaning staff, and now being treated with such a tone by her husband, her temper flared up: "You only know how to be fierce with me! That's right, I wanted to vent the anger in my heart, and I wouldn't be satisfied until I did!"

Watching his wife's unrepentant and paranoid appearance, Li Wanchang felt a wave of annoyance.

He had warned his wife more than once not to provoke Shen Ci again, because even he couldn't figure out Shen Ci's background and strength now.

And recently, the news of Shen Jingjing dating Fei Yunzong had become known to everyone.

How could she dare to provoke Shen Jingjing at a time like this?

"Vent your anger? If you were truly capable, that would be one thing, but what kind of tricks are these?" Li Wanchang was furious.

Mrs. Li, however, argued with justification: "As long as I bite down on the other party, what way does she have to prove her innocence?"

Li Wanchang was angered into laughter: "Do you know about the presumption of innocence? Without evidence, it's useless! And do you really think that by using such methods to disgust the other party, you'll feel comfortable?"

His wife's obsession was with their son. As long as their son didn't return to the country, her hatred for Shen Ci wouldn't disappear for a single day, and their days wouldn't be peaceful.

"You two!" Li Wanchang suddenly looked at the two nannies: "Settle your wages and pack your things and leave."

"Sir!"

The two nannies were startled and hurriedly admitted their mistake: "Sir, we were wrong. We won't dare to do it next time."

"Next time?" Li Wanchang sneered: "There won't be a next time."

"Why are you blaming them? Sister Liu and Sister Wang have been working in our house for several years. I've long since gotten used to them. If you fire them, who will take care of me?" Mrs. Li said.

As a result, Li Wanchang looked at her and said seriously: "You don't have to stay at home either. Don't you miss your son? I'll arrange for you to go abroad to accompany him in his studies immediately. When your son graduates, you can come back with him. That way, you won't be at home all day, idle and just pondering these messy things to find trouble for me!"

"You, you want to send me abroad?" Mrs. Li exclaimed: "I don't even know English, and you want me to go abroad to accompany him in his studies?"

"Don't worry, I'll arrange everything over there for you. I'm not feeling well today, so I'm going upstairs to rest. Don't disturb me."

Li Wanchang seemed to have made up his mind and didn't give his wife a chance to refuse, turning and heading upstairs.

Mrs. Li stomped her feet in place. It was true that she missed her son, but she was truly afraid of going abroad. In an unfamiliar place where she didn't know the language, she would definitely be uncomfortable everywhere.

Shen Jingjing took Sister Xiang and the others out of the Li family villa. By now, she had completely understood. Looking at Li Wanchang's attitude just now, that bracelet was likely a figment of imagination.

The other party was completely targeting her, and the reason was none other than A-Ci.

Consequently, she felt quite guilty toward Sister Xiang and the others: "There was an ulterior motive behind today's matter, and you were wronged. The company will provide you with some appropriate compensation."

"Jingjing, you coming to save us is something we should be grateful for; how could we still want the company's compensation?" Sister Xiang clearly didn't know the reason behind it and only felt gratitude toward Shen Jingjing.

Shen Jingjing didn't want to explain too much, only saying: "It's only right. Get in the car first. There are still orders later, right? I'll take you back to the company first."

She had to find an opportunity to tell her daughter about today's matter.

Shen Ci slept until two in the afternoon. After waking up, she found the meal her mother had made for her before leaving. After eating a little, she went out and headed to the hospital.

When she arrived at the hospital, Duanduan had already arrived.

"Sister Ci, Boss Yang just left." Duanduan was guarding the door and took the initiative to step forward when he saw Shen Ci arrive.

"Uncle Yang came?"

"Yes, he came to take a look at Sister-in-law and said he would come back tomorrow after the baby is out of the observation room."

Shen Ci nodded and pushed the door to enter the ward, just in time to hear Yan Mu talking to Wang Zhaoning.

"Look, Zhaoning, Wentao has been messaging me all morning. He guessed that I came to see you because I wasn't home. Look, he's probing me again here. Mom isn't even replying; I'm ignoring him!"

Yan Mu's attitude toward Wang Zhaoning was very good, bordering on ingratiating.

Just as Wang Zhaoning had thought, her son was inside, and Yan Mu was afraid that she would divorce her son, so she could only do her best to win over this daughter-in-law. After all, the grandson and granddaughter were still there.

Wang Zhaoning thought for a moment, and taking advantage of the fact that her mother-in-law was still on her side, she said: "Mom, if you have the chance, you should also persuade Wentao. Xizi bailed him out so that you would have a son by your side to take care of you, not for him to have crooked thoughts."

"Besides, he has quite a lot of shares in the company. Even if he doesn't do anything, as long as the company is running normally, he won't have to worry about money. Why bother doing this?"

"Xizi is about to be sentenced. Lawyer Qin said he would do his best to shorten his sentence to within six years. He might even be out in three or five years. If Wentao keeps acting like this, Xizi won't go easy on him when he gets out."

Yan Mu listened to one part and then another, but she took this last sentence to heart.

"Ah? Really? He can be out in three or five years?" She clutched her chest excitedly. She had heard that those big shots who were caught earlier were all sentenced to more than ten years.

The highest was sentenced to death.

"We can only do our best, but since Lawyer Qin said so, it shouldn't be too far off," Wang Zhaoning said.

The main thing was that the police's investigation progress was highly confidential, and they had no idea how many of Xizi's affairs had been uncovered, but the fact that Xizi had no murder cases was 100% certain.

"Mom knows Wentao is restless. Don't worry, Mom will keep an eye on him." Yan Mu said, her mind stirring. She gently held Wang Zhaoning's hand and asked: "Zhaoning, Mom asks you, were Xizi's business affairs finally handed over to you?"

When the old lady asked this, Wang Zhaoning became vigilant instantly, but she didn't show it and naturally denied it: "How could that be? Mom, you know me. I haven't worked since I started dating Xizi, and I'm pregnant. How could Xizi dare to hand these things over to me?"

"Then who were they handed over to?"

"I'm not clear about that. In any case, he told me not to worry, and that he had arranged everything," Wang Zhaoning said.

"He didn't tell you?" Yan Mu clearly didn't believe her and looked suspicious.

Wang Zhaoning shook her head: "Really not. He wishes I didn't know anything, for fear of getting me involved."

This statement had some credibility, and the old lady also knew how much her son loved Wang Zhaoning.

She still wanted to ask something, but Shen Ci, who had been listening at the door for a long time, walked in at the right time: "Sister-in-law, I'm here. How are you feeling now?" ===== CHAPTER 516 =====
