"Back then, the Feng family was a powerful and wealthy family that could rival the Shen family today. Mr. Shen's first wife married the second daughter of the Feng family. It was a well-known business marriage arranged by Mr. Shen himself. I heard that the two had only met a few times before they got married. They had no time to talk about love, and there was no emotional foundation. Back then, Mr. Shen married the Feng family just to save the Shen Group, which was affected by the economic crisis at the time."

Tang Qiaoer listened to her elder brother's words without any change in expression:

"It's normal for wealthy families to marry each other. Old Wan wanted to marry Ah Jin to the Xie family at the beginning."

"Mrs. Shen has only one son, Young Master Shen. Although the relationship between the couple is not good, there was no gossip back then. After all, the Shen family borrowed the power of the Feng family, and Mrs. Shen gave birth to a son for the Shen family. Even if Mr. Shen had any objections, he would never show them.

This harmonious relationship lasted until Young Master Shen was four years old."

Tang Feng was listening attentively as if he were listening to a story, and so was Tang Qiaoer, who hurriedly asked:

"What happened next?"

Tang Yue's eyes darkened. "One night, Madam Shen ended her life with a shotgun beside the lake in Guanchao Manor."

Tang Qiaoer stared in astonishment, cold sweat breaking out on her back, "Shooting herself? Why?!"

"Fuck! This Madam Shen is really fierce!"

Tang Feng was greatly shocked. "Most people commit suicide by jumping off a building, cutting their wrists, or taking sleeping pills. They don't want to die in too much pain. She actually dared to shoot herself? She really doesn't want to live anymore!"

Tang Yue frowned, a little helpless, "In fact, the outside world doesn't know the cause of Mrs. Shen's death. But our father is a very gossipy person, and he had a friend like Mr. Xie who was always busy with things. So even though the Shen family tried their best to block the news at that time, someone still caught wind of it."

"When Shen Jingzhe was four years old..."

Tang Qiaoer's eyes suddenly flashed, and her heart tightened, "That year, Jing Jue's mother happened to be pregnant. Could it be that Mrs. Shen committed suicide because Mr. Shen had another woman outside?!"

Tang Feng couldn't help but feel frightened, his scalp tingling:

"A four-year-old child should be able to remember things, right? If Shen Jingzhe's mother's death was really because Mr. Shen had a lover outside, then when he grows up, won't he take revenge on Jingzhe for his mother?

Then he came back with bad intentions this time, and I was shocked that there might be danger!"

Tang Qiaoer was in a state of confusion, which coincided with what Seventh Brother was thinking.

“It doesn’t seem to be that simple.”

Tang Yue's eyes were lost in thought, and he spoke in a low voice, "When I was young, my father once mentioned that Mrs. Shen was a very strange person, and seemed to be reluctant to see people. After marriage, Mr. Shen never brought her out in public, and she rarely went out in private. I have never heard that she had any close friends who were noble ladies. It can be said that she is very low-key and mysterious.

One year, my father accompanied my mother to the hospital for treatment, and they met Mrs. Shen once. She looked very bad, with a pale face and dazed eyes. After a quick glance, she disappeared from their sight, and they never saw her again. At that time, Shen Jingzhe had just been born not long ago.

"Maybe, there is a problem like depression."

Tang Qiaoer pursed her lips and thought, "Many women will experience symptoms of postpartum depression if they do not take proper care of themselves after childbirth. Maybe she was never cured, and then Director Shen cheated on her, which made her condition worse, which led to her finally losing hope and committing suicide."

Tang Yue: “That’s also possible.”

"But what does Madam Shen's suicide have to do with the downfall of the Feng family?"

Tang Qiaoer was still puzzled, "Doesn't the Feng family still have Madam Shen's brother in charge of the family business?"

"Because he was involved in several murders."

"Wait a minute!"

As a criminal policeman, Tang Feng's DNA moved when he heard the word "murder case", and his black and white eyes lit up. "I seem to have heard from an old senior in the police station that thirty years ago, the chairman of the Feng family killed two lovers abroad. After returning to China, he raped and killed a sixteen-year-old girl, dismembered her body, and drove out in a luxury sports car to dump the body parts. When he was arrested, there was no fear or regret on his face, and he even showed a weird smile to the camera!

My senior once said that he had arrested so many vicious criminals in his decades of police career. The man surnamed Feng can be said to be the most perverted of the perverts. "

"Yes, it was done by Madam Shen's brother."

Tang Yue sighed deeply. He felt both psychologically and physically uncomfortable when he mentioned this matter. "After Director Feng was thrown into prison, the Feng Group was leaderless and was eventually swallowed up by its rivals. It collapsed and ended completely."

Hearing this, Tang Qiaoer felt a chill in her chest and gritted her teeth in anger:

"You are worse than beasts!"

Outside the door, Lin Su hurried over carrying a lunch box.

Seeing Shen Jingjue standing motionless at the door like an ice sculpture, he was so shocked that the lunch box in his hand almost fell to the ground!

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen?!"

Shen Jingjue was distracted, and turned his eyes slowly, looking at him indifferently, his voice low and dry, like someone who hasn't had a drink of water for a long time:

"How is your eldest lady?"

Lin Su stared at the man in front of him, and suddenly his tear glands were shaken by the complex emotions, and his throat choked:

"The young lady is ill, very ill. Please go in and see her. She will be very happy to see you and will get better."

He hurriedly opened the door for him.

Shen Jingjue pursed his thin lips, clenched his slender fingers, and slowly walked into the ward.

The man's appearance made Tang Yue and Tang Feng excited, but they still tried their best to control their expressions and found an excuse to leave the ward.

Soon, only Tang Qiaoer and Shen Jingjue were left in the room.

The Shen couple, who were once sweet, intimate and happy, now looked at each other in silence.

An indescribable loneliness, desolation and sadness.

"I heard that you vomited blood."

Shen Jingjue stood by the bed like a wooden stake, not even sitting down, as distant as a guest. "I remember that you had stomach problems, but you haven't had them for a long time. Why did you suddenly become like this this time?"

Tang Qiaoer felt a sour feeling in her nose, but she endured it, and gently curled her lips in a wry smile.

She has stomach problems, and they are not mild.

I used to do it often, but I don’t do it anymore because I live with him.

He took good care of her every day, tried to learn how to make medicinal food, adjusted her diet, and took the trouble to make food that suited her taste, was easy to digest, and nourished her stomach. He looked after her like a child every day, not allowing her to sneak cold drinks or be greedy for cold food, so she had not had a stomach problem for a long time.

Without her, she was upset and her life was in a mess.

She had been spoiled by him a long time ago.

Her mental and living abilities deteriorated, and she became a little girl who was completely unable to take care of herself.

But she knew that people could not stay children forever.

She has to grow up again.

"How do you know I'm sick?" Tang Qiaoer asked softly, her long eyelashes trembling.

The man said bluntly, "Doctor Liu told me."

"Brother Suifeng." She forced a smile, "I'm fine. I'm much better now."

"That's good."

Then, there was another long silence.

"Mr. Shen..."

"Miss Tang."

As if they were in sync, they spoke at the same time.

Tang Qiaoer smiled inappropriately, "You go first."

"Ms. Tang, if you have a sudden stomach problem, I wish you good health in the future. Take good care of yourself in your daily life.

If you have ruined yourself like this because of me, I hope you will stop this stupid, almost self-abuse behavior from now on."

Shen Jingjue's clear eyes were filled with chill, and some inexplicable emotions were surging, "Let's not talk about it, if you do this, our relationship will not change at all.

Even if you want to pursue someone, using such an extreme method will only backfire and be offensive."
