To avoid harassment from my brother-in-law, I got married to a wealthy man

Wei Yutong frowned, a little disgusted, "I don't believe in those nonsense. It's normal to have some minor illnesses and disasters when you get older."

"But don't you feel like nothing has gone right in the past few months? I'm not saying anything bad about Jiu'er, nor am I saying that this is all because of her. I just wonder if there's something wrong between our family and Jiu'er?"

"Of course!" Wei Yutong frowned. "What's the problem between our family and Jiuer? She is our biological daughter. We are a family because we are destined to be together."

Shen Youran's expression froze, and his face became even paler than before.

Yes, isn’t it fate? That’s why the person who had been missing for twenty years unexpectedly came back again.

And maybe she is not destined to be together? Even though she has been in the Shen family since birth and has been a rich lady for 26 years, her status has plummeted because of the return of her biological daughter.

But Shen Youran was unwilling to accept it? Why was she not the one with destiny? Who gave her this destiny?

She doesn't believe in fate, because fate can be changed. The fact that she was raised in a wealthy family despite her ordinary background is the best proof of this.

She only believes in herself, and she will fight for everything she wants, even if it means using any means necessary.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I was wrong. I won't say that again." Shen Youran quickly admitted her mistake.

When Wei Yutong saw her expression, her heart ached slightly.

Did what I just said make this child sensitive?

But what she said was true.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little stagnant.

At this time, Shen Congrong walked in from outside carrying a few exquisite paper bags.

He was wearing a dark blue suit with a neatly tied tie, and followed by an assistant. It was obvious that he came from the company.

Wei Yutong smiled when she saw her husband, "Brother Rong, why are you here?"

"I'll come over to see you during lunch break. I'll be worried."

Wei Yutong smiled gently, "What's there to worry about? The servants are here at home."

Although she said this, Wei Yutong was extremely happy in her heart. Although she and her husband had been married for decades, her husband had always been considerate and given her enough tenderness.

Shen Congrong put the things down, glanced at Shen Youran with his eyes, and his brows slightly frowned.

"Dad." Shen Youran called out, his expression a little stiff.

Shen Congrong did not agree, but he did not show any displeasure either. He just nodded indifferently, "You Ran is here."

"Well, I'm worried about Mom." Shen Youran explained.

Shen Congrong said in a deep voice: "You Ran, you should go back. You are still injured. Besides, your mother just had an accident and the funeral hasn't been held yet. Shouldn't you discuss it with your father?"

Shen Youran's face froze. She knew that Shen Congrong had deliberately sent her away and was clearly telling her that she was no longer a member of the Shen family.

She looked at Wei Yutong, as if asking for help.

Wei Yutong was soft-hearted after all, "Brother Rong, I'm bored too when I'm alone."

"I know, so I asked someone to pick up our baby. I know you can't bear to let Youran go, but she is someone else's daughter after all, and her mother is still waiting to be buried. You have your own daughter, why do you want to occupy someone else's daughter? Don't you agree?"

Shen Congrong sounded polite, but there was a sense of distance between his words.

Wei Yutong understood what her husband meant, and said to Shen Youran, "Of course, you go back and rest first."

Shen Youran forced a smile, covering her belly with one hand and supporting herself against the wall with the other. "Mom, I'll come see you later. You and Dad can eat first."

Wei Yutong nodded, "Go ahead and have a good meal."

After Shen Youran left, Shen Congrong couldn't help but scold, "You, are you soft-hearted again?"

Wei Yutong said bitterly, "Brother Rong, after all, she was injured like this just to save Jiuer. I just can't bear it. I feel a little guilty when I see her."

"What are you feeling guilty about?" Shen Congrong sat by the window, opened the thermos lunch box, and put almond porridge, steamed dumplings and some side dishes on it.

The wife loves pasta and these are what she likes.

After taking out a wet towel to wipe his wife's hands, Shen Congrong continued, "Don't forget how Jiu'er got into trouble. He Chunye wanted to kidnap our Jiu'er and almost killed her. The daughter paid for the mother's debt. What are you feeling guilty about?"

"No, Brother Rong." Wei Yutong grabbed Shen Congrong's hand anxiously, "Brother Rong, Youran told me today that it was He Chunye and Meng Debiao who stole Jiuer. She was also in great pain. She didn't expect that her biological parents would be so cruel."

Shen Congrong's pupils dilated, but he quickly recovered his composure.

"It's not surprising. We already suspected He Chunye before. We even speculated that she and Meng Debiao wanted to use Tan Jing's matter to make you give birth prematurely and send Shen Youran to our house as soon as possible."

"Brother Rong, what I want to say is that Youran is innocent. She had no choice in how she was born, no way to stop He Chunye from sending her to the Shen family, and no way to stop He Chunye from stealing Jiuer.

"I hated her originally, but this time she was willing to sacrifice her child and her right to be a mother to save Jiuer. This is a life-saving grace. Even if it's not because we raised her for 26 years, shouldn't we remember her kindness?"

Wei Yutong had a headache and was confused, but one thing was certain: she didn't want to pursue those things anymore.

Shen Youran was raised by them. In an environment like their Shen family, how bad could a child be?

She felt that it was He Chunye who interfered and instigated Shen Youran, otherwise things would not have turned out like this.

Shen Congrong couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but he never had the heart to reprimand his wife, so he just slowed down his tone and reasoned with her: "Even if it's a life-saving favor, I promised to give her shares."

"But she doesn't want it." Wei Yutong's voice rose, and one could hear her obvious displeasure.

Shen Congrong also restrained his expression and said seriously, "That's her problem. Do you think she doesn't want it? She can clearly distinguish the pros and cons."

Hearing her husband say this, Wei Yutong couldn't help but feel a little angry, "You always look at people with a businessman's mindset."

Shen Congrong could see that his wife was angry, but he didn't argue with her. He just picked up a piece of pickled cucumber and fed it to her with the bun.

"eat first."

Wei Yutong turned her head away and refused to compromise.

Shen Congrong gritted his teeth and did not coax his wife as usual. Instead, he leaned back in his chair and looked out the window with a cold face.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Lu Xi and Fu Nanzhou stood at the door and waited for five minutes. Seeing that Shen Congrong and Wei Yutong did not speak, they finally raised their feet and pushed open the door of the ward.

Hearing the noise, the couple looked over at the same time, and when they saw it was their daughter and son-in-law, they both suppressed their displeasure.

Shen Congrong smiled, "My daughter is here."

Wei Yutong also froze for a moment, and quickly said, "Jiuer, Nanzhou, come and sit down."

Lu Xi sat down in front of her, holding Wei Yutong's hand, and said seriously, "Mom, my dad is right. Shen Youran doesn't want the shares, but he doesn't dare to take them. He can't take them."

Seeing Wei Yutong frowning again, Lu Xi didn't give her mother a chance to speak and blocked her directly, "You don't have to be angry in a hurry, listen to my analysis.

"If I were Shen Youran, and I had already risked my life to save Lu Xi, and now I was asking for shares, wouldn't that make this life of sacrificing my life to save someone else a joke?! And netizens can always dig up the fact that my mom threatened you with Lu Xi's life.

“Even if I ask for the shares, there will be many obstacles in the future. The eldest young master of the Shen family still has shares, and there are other scattered shares, so it’s not that he can’t fight against me.

“Plus, Lu Xi is not dead, and her husband is still the heir of the Fu family. If she wants to deal with me, wouldn’t it be easy?

"So I can't have it, and I have to be very firm."

Wei Yutong thought about it for a while, but still felt something was wrong, so she asked, "Why did she lose so much? That's a child's life! She will never be a mother again. Such a tragic price can't be paid just to win favor, right?"

Wei Yutong didn't believe it and couldn't understand it. She even felt that her daughter had misunderstood Shen Youran.

The Shen family has always been kind and grateful, so their daughter's idea is a bit dangerous.
