Her smile is gentle and seemingly harmless but charming.

"This is an era in which the jungle preys on the weak, and scheming and means are necessary conditions for survival. This has been the truth no matter from ancient times to the present. Ms. Shen said that I have a lot of scheming and clever means, which is also a kind of recognition for me."

When she spoke, she had a slight smile on her face, glanced at Huo Shenting, and sat upright beside him.

Her expression was open and natural, she was not flustered by Shen Shiqing's words, and her answers were well-founded and convincing.

Mrs. Huo and Mrs. Huo looked at Ye Shu appreciatively at the same time.

A family like theirs doesn't need a vase at all, a capable and outstanding daughter-in-law can save them a lot of problems.

It is enough to be able to handle the media or socialize with ease.

And Shen Shiqing's layout is many times smaller than Ye Shu's.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. Although Mrs. Huo has ambitions and purposes for Ye Shu to marry into the Huo family, she has to admit that Ye Shu is worthy of her ambition.

Shen Shiqing took a deep breath, seeing Huo Shenting's eyes looking at Ye Shu softened from the deep one just now, alarm bells rang in her heart.

She stood up from her seat, looked at Mrs. Huo, and said softly.

"Grandma Huo, I have something else to do. I can't accompany you for dinner tonight. I'm sorry. I'm leaving first."

Mrs. Huo nodded, glanced at Huo Shenting, and said in a deep voice.

"Shen Ting, see off the guests."

When Shen Shiqing heard Mrs. Huo's words, she clenched her palms tightly.

She knew why Mrs. Huo asked Huo Shenting to send her off, she just wanted Huo Shenting to use such a short time to make a final break with her.

"No, I can go out by myself, and it's not the first time I've come here, so don't be so polite."

Shen Shiqing refused with a smile, tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes.

Ye Shu glanced at Huo Shenting and said quietly.

"Let's send Miss Shen off. The old house is far away from the city, so it's not easy to take a taxi. Arrange a driver for Miss Shen."

Ye Shu's generosity made Shen Shiqing a little displeased, but Huo Shenting stood up from the sofa obediently, rubbed Ye Shu's head by the way, and said in a deep voice.

"wait me back."

Ye Shu just nodded calmly, watching Huo Shenting and Shen Shiqing walk out of the room one after the other.

Shen Shiqing clenched her palms tightly, watched Huo Shenting walking in front of her, stepped forward to follow, and said in a low voice.

"Shen Ting, I know I've made you unhappy. I'm too naive. I don't know how this matter will affect you. Can you forgive me?"

Huo Shenting never stopped, and walked out the door, saying in a deep voice.

"I never blamed you, what forgiveness?"

When Shen Shiqing heard his words, a flash of joy flashed in her eyes, she hurriedly followed Huo Shenting's footsteps, and said softly.

"Shen Ting, I knew you wouldn't treat me like this..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Huo Shenting interrupted her coldly.

"I promised your grandfather to take care of you, but I didn't promise that he would let you do whatever you want. Poetry is just enough. Ye Shu is my bottom line. No one can cross this line."

Hearing this, Shen Shiqing's body was a little stiff, and she just stood there in a daze and forgot to take a step.

Ye Shu didn't talk to him more than ten times before he married him, and they had only been married for half a year, yet now he actually told her that Ye Shu was his bottom line.

When did his bottom line get so low?
Huo Shenting's back faded away, and he stopped at the gate of the old house to talk to the security personnel.

Shen Shiqing breathed a sigh of relief, then stepped forward, walked in front of him, and said in a deep voice.

"But Miss Ye doesn't love you. Shen Ting, you should also know about her relationship with Lu Shaojun. You should know that when they broke up, Lu Shaojun went abroad for so many years and refused to come back. Ye Shu was sent to the same prestigious school to avoid him. If you are admitted, you won’t go.”

"She was with you to save Mrs. Ye, but she only regarded you as a stepping stone. Lu Shaojun is the one she likes."

Huo Shenting's eyes were cold, and he looked at Shen Shiqing with a little more scrutiny.

"Where did you get this information?"

Seeing Huo Shenting questioning herself in such a harsh tone, Shen Shiqing secretly gritted her teeth.

"I heard from Ye Shu's former alumni that they didn't stay together in the end because they were ruined by a friend. Ye Shu broke up with Lu Shaojun out of guilt for that person. This kind of regretful love, what do you say? Will it be rekindled if it encounters a spark? Absolutely."

Huo Shenting's face darkened, his eyes fixed on Shen Shiqing, and he spoke coldly.

"I don't care about the past, as long as she is my wife now."

Shen Shiqing wanted to say something after hearing the words, but before she could say anything, Huo Shenting raised her hand and interrupted her.

"Stop talking, I'll ask the driver to take you back."

Shen Shiqing was not reconciled, her eyes were full of anxiety, "Shen Ting..."

However, Huo Shenting didn't intend to give Shen Shiqing another chance to speak, so he ordered the security personnel on the side.

"Send Miss Shen away."

The security personnel nodded, and made a gesture of invitation to Shen Shiqing, with a respectful attitude that made it impossible to find any faults.

"Miss Shen, please come with us."

This is the old house of the Huo family, not the hotel outside. Shen Shiqing didn't dare to make a fuss. Seeing that Huo Shenting had turned around and walked towards the house, she couldn't help but walk away with a resigned expression.

Ye Shu was talking to Mrs. Huo about Ye's recent situation. She didn't want to talk about it with the old lady, but she didn't expect Mrs. Huo to take the initiative to ask, and Ye Shu could only tell the truth.

Mrs. Huo also managed the company when she was young, and gave Ye Shu some pertinent opinions.

Ye Shu listened quietly.

When Huo Shenting walked into the house, he saw Ye Shu and his family getting along happily.

The sharpness on Ye Shu's body faded away completely, and she looked like a young apprentice in front of his grandmother, listening to the teacher's teachings humbly.

Huo Shenting's lips curled into a smile unconsciously, his eyes fell on Ye Shu, he walked over, and put his hand on Ye Shu's shoulder.

Seeing that he had only been away for a few minutes and then came back, Ye Shu's eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly regained his composure.

Seeing Huo Shenting coming back, Mrs. Huo said quietly.

"Just now Xiaoshu said that he wants to shoot in China, and the photography company has already been selected. Tomorrow, you take time to visit the photography company with Xiaoshu."

Huo Shenting nodded.

"She told me this afternoon."

Mrs. Huo nodded in satisfaction. Although she didn't express her dislike for Shen Shiqing just now, Shen Shiqing arranged for the paparazzi to plot against Huo Shenting and made a lot of noise about it, making the public think that the person Huo Shenting loved was her and betrayed her. The behavior of marriage is very bad in Mrs. Huo's heart.

So the good impression Shen Shiqing left on her side was completely destroyed by this incident.
