The boss is chasing after the chaebol’s ex-wife, but you can’t afford it

"When I saw this hairpin, I liked it very much and thought it suited Miss Tang very well."

Shen Jingzhe smiled sincerely at Wen Qian, "Jingxue, a small gift, I hope you won't find it objectionable."

With a snap——

Shen Jingjue closed the brocade box directly and pushed it back to the middle of the table. His eyes were dark and bottomless:

"This gift is too precious. I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of Qiao'er."

Shen Jingzhe didn't look embarrassed at all, and still looked at him with a faint smile.

"Shingxue, what are you doing?"

When Shen Guangjing saw this, he immediately scolded with an unhappy look on his face, "Your eldest brother finally came back, and upon his return he thoughtfully prepared generous gifts for the whole family, even your girlfriend was taken care of.

Are you so high-minded that you don’t even look down on the things your elder brother gives you? Even if you are dissatisfied, honestly speaking, how has your elder brother treated you since you were a child? Even if you don't like it, you shouldn't refuse, it's so heartbreaking! "

"Dad, don't be angry."

Shen Jingzhe coughed twice and advised gently, "It's not a big deal. It's not easy for the family to get together. Don't hurt the harmony over this matter."

"Jingxu, just accept your elder brother's wishes." Shen Nanhuai took a deep look at his grandson, his eyes meaningful.

He was facing the surprise, and from his angle he couldn't see what was in the box. He just wanted to turn over this article. After all, the relationship between Jingju and his father had eased a bit, so there was no need to get emotional over this matter.

Shen Jingjue felt his big, knuckled hands clenched tightly under the table, and an undercurrent of obscure emotions surged in his starry eyes:

"Brother, if you gave me something else, I would be happy to accept it. But what you gave me is a hairpin. I can't accept this."

Shen Jingzhe's eyebrows raised almost imperceptibly.

"A hairpin given by a man to a woman was a token of love in ancient times, implying that the knot of hair will accompany her."

Shen Jingjue's voice was low and slightly cold, "Qiao'er is your younger sibling. Brother, I don't think it's appropriate for you to give me this thing."

Hearing this, Shen Nanhuai suddenly realized.

No wonder he was shocked to realize that his expression changed drastically just now. If it were the old man himself, he would have blown up the temple long ago!

Shen Guangjing frowned, "Shingxu, are you too sensitive? Your eldest brother is a grown man, how can he understand women's jewelry? You are too picky."

"I was negligent."

Shen Jingzhe smiled shyly, "I have lived abroad for a long time, and I have almost forgotten all these customs and allusions in China. Jingxue, don't mind."

Shen Jingjue's eyes darkened, "No."

……

Shen Jingjue felt depressed and found an excuse to leave the table and go to the backyard to get some fresh air.

Although he said he didn't mind, how could it be possible?

The gifts Shen Jingzhe sent were almost all expensive antiques and antiques. He was in a foreign country, but his living environment was classical and elegant, with a literary and artistic atmosphere everywhere.

How could he not know the meaning of giving a hairpin to a woman if he loves the ancient style so much?

Shen Jingjue raised his hand to clasp the Windsor knot and pulled it downwards, but still felt short of breath.

He really didn't think about it that much.

Or are you secretly testing his bottom line?

Just then, the sound of someone talking in the garden disturbed his deep thoughts.

Shen Jingjue heard the sound and walked over, only to see the housekeeper and servants gathering in the pavilion by the pool, not knowing what they were watching.

"Second Young Master." The two servants on the periphery bowed quickly.

"What's going on inside?" Shen Jingjue asked calmly.

"It's Miss Mu who came back with the eldest young master. She is treating the leg injury of the fawn raised in our yard!"

The servant had an expression of admiration on his face, "The little deer we raised at home also broke his leg for some reason and was rolling on the ground in pain. The housekeeper originally wanted to ask a veterinarian to come to the house for treatment, but he didn't expect Miss Mu to be so powerful and hurt the little deer. It’s bandaged!”

Shen Jingjue's indifferent eyes fell on Mu Xuerou.

Her pretty face had a peaceful expression, and she knelt down on one knee. Her clean white trousers were stained with dust, but she didn't care at all. She only focused on bandaging the leg wounds of the deer lying on the ground.

The technique is neat and skillful, and you can tell he is professional at a glance.

The scene in front of him made Shen's eyes shrink in shock.

"Good boy, it's okay."

Mu Xuerou's eyes were soft and she patted Xiaolu's butt gently, "Let's go play."

The fawn stood up unsteadily, tried its injured left front leg, then neighed, rushed out of the pavilion, and passed by Shen Jingjue.

"Mr. Shen." Mu Xuerou stood up and walked to him with a smile.

"Miss Mu."

"The little animal in your house was injured. I bandaged it without saying hello. I wonder if I broke the rules of the Shen family." Mu Xuerou bent her affectionate eyes.

Her voice was soft and soft, and the slightly rising tail tone seemed to have a hook.

Shen Jingjue's eyebrows were indifferent, and he still had a distant attitude towards her, "No. Miss Mu is rescuing animals, which is a good deed. I should thank you."

"When I was working as Doctors Without Borders in Country L, I bandaged the wounds of injured soldiers and civilians. I didn't expect that my skills could also be used on small animals." Mu Xuerou shook his head and sighed softly.

Shen was shocked to find that Xing's eyes were dark and filled with emotions.

In an instant, distant and erratic memories appeared in his mind again, shrouding him like a fog.

Back then, on the battlefield of Country L, he sneaked into a terrorist organization and fought desperately. He was stabbed in the arm and shot in the leg. He was in critical danger.

It was the little white pigeon who urgently stopped his bleeding, treated his wounds, and desperately brought him back to the camp, so that he was able to save his leg.

"Hmm...what's going on? I feel dizzy all of a sudden..." Mu Xuerou suddenly frowned and her slender body swayed.

The next second, he was caught off guard and fell towards the man.

Shen Jing felt his thoughts come back to his senses, his eyebrows sank, but it was too late.

"Hey! Miss Mu, be careful!"

Fortunately, at this moment, Han Xian jumped out like a badger, and with quick eyes and hands, he helped Mu Xuerou steady.

Shen Jingjue immediately took a step back and kept a safe distance from the woman.

"Thank you." Mu Xuerou clenched her fingers secretly, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

"Miss Mu, following my elder brother all the way and taking care of his daily life is really hard work. Go back and rest early."

Shen Jingjue looked stern, turned around and left in a stride.

"Miss Mu, shall I take you to have a rest?" Han Xian still acted like a good person who will fight to the end.

"No need, I'm not that delicate." Mu Xuerou was annoyed and pushed him away.

Han Xian scratched his head.

Just now he was too weak to take care of himself, so pushing him now is a lot of strength.

……

After the family dinner, Shen Jingjue sent Shen Nanhuai back to Juyue Bay, while Shen Jingzhe took Mu Xuerou to stay at Guanchao Manor.

It has been more than ten years since he left, but his room is still kept in Guanchao Manor, and it is cleaned every week.

"Sir, it seems that Director Shen still values ​​you very much. You can rest assured." Mu Xuerou brought water and medicine to Shen Jingzhe.

The man's slender, cold-white fingertips were picking at a pile of colorful pills, his dimple half hidden in the darkness:

"But grandpa is still afraid of me."

"He's just a dying old man. No matter how much he wants, he's not strong enough. What's more, you are his eldest grandson. How could he attack you." Mu Xuerou's eyes were full of contempt.

"This time Qin Shu's two daughters had accidents one after another, which made Shen Guangjing re-examine the relationship between him and my brother."

Shen Jingzhe picked a pill and put it in his mouth, "If I don't come back at this time and remind Shen Guangjing of my son, the situation may be out of my control."

Mu Xuerou knelt on one knee in front of him, raised her face and looked at him with admiration:

"Sir, you are wise."

Shen Jingzhe curled his lips lazily and patted her cheek like a pet.

"By the way, Xie Jinhuan heard that you were back, so he contacted me specifically and wanted to meet you."

"Confused."

Shen Jingzhe leaned back, a dangerous dark light flashed in his eyes, "Now, we don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching us in the dark, he can't act rashly.

Tonight, you test my brother. How does he treat you? "

Mu Xuerou was startled for a moment, then shook her head depressedly, "Shen Jingjue is a man with a stubborn mind, and I can't understand him better.

He only has eyes for whoever he falls in love with, and there is no room for others. "

"It doesn't matter, that's it, that's what's fun."

Shen Jingzhe opened the brocade box on the table again, took out the hairpin, and played with it repeatedly under the moonlight.

Suddenly, he pressed his eyebrows and broke the hosta in pieces.

"One day, I will make you unable to refuse me anymore."
