Since Shen Wenjiao had made the decision, she acted quickly. She first paid someone to make a fake identity certificate, packed up the books she had purchased over the years, and sent some less important things to Shanghai in advance. Then, she continued to live her life as if nothing had happened.

"Oh, what a rare guest. Mrs. Saito finally has time to come today~"

Before Shen Wenjiao entered the door, she heard Xu Bijun's exaggerated laughter from afar. Haha, it seems that she is really happy today!

"Well, this is my youngest daughter, Wanting, who is still a student in the senior primary school. She is not as capable as my eldest daughter, who has already graduated from junior high school! She is even more beautiful, which is very rare!"

Sitting on the sofa opposite Xu Bijun was a woman dressed very luxuriously, with her hair tied up in an exquisite bun, a large pearl necklace around her neck, a watch and bracelets on her wrists, and even rings on all ten fingers.

She didn't look like a pampered lady, but instead had the feeling of a nouveau riche, especially the way the other party looked Shen Wenjiao up and down after she entered the room.

Like picking pork on the table.

Shen Wenjiao frowned slightly, and she could sense something was wrong. Mrs. Saito gave her a very strange feeling. There was something strange about her.

"Look, it's true. This is our Wenjiao, who is just 12 years old this year. She is in her prime! Mrs. Saito, what do you think? Wenjiao, this is Mrs. Saito, and her husband is the director of St. Mary's Hospital!"

Xu Bijun didn't care about Shen Wenjiao's attitude at all. After all, she thought she could completely control the little girl.

"No, I still have a lot of schoolwork to do! I'm also preparing to get into high school~ I'm not as free as some people." Shen Wenjiao's attitude of not wanting to be bothered was the same as usual, and Xu Bijun didn't find anything unusual. Her public persona has always been an ordinary girl who is devoted to learning and doesn't understand the ways of the world, and at most has a good learning ability.

At the same time, this is the character setting that Shen Wenjiao has considered most closely matching her life experience in recent years! Even classmates who have been with her day and night will not feel out of place.

After Shen Wenjiao turned and left, Xu Bijun quickly apologized to Mrs. Saito in a flattering manner, who was watching all this with a smile.

"Haha, Mrs. Saito. Our Wenjiao likes to read books. She is a little dull, but she is still quite motivated. Anyway, all educated girls are like this, a little arrogant."

Shen Wenjiao, who deliberately slowed down her pace, finally heard the first words spoken by Mrs. Saito. She felt a little sticky, "Mrs. Shen, it's okay. Young girls are all like this. In fact, it's a good thing to be able to make progress. You are so lucky to have two beautiful daughters."

Shen Wenjiao paused. It seemed that the other party had taken a fancy to both her and Shen Wanting, which was even more strange.

"Really? Oh, it's a pity that my Wan Ting is a little young. Wen Jiao is the elder sister, so we should always consider her first."

Shen Wenjiao didn't need to listen too much to guess what was said next, but she now doubted Mrs. Saito's true purpose and situation.

Sure enough, I don't know what kind of promise Mrs. Saito made to Xu Bijun. During dinner, Shen Wenjiao rarely got several smiles from the other party. Mr. Shen also seemed to have gained some benefits and could foresee a promotion and salary increase in the future!

Even though Shen Wanting had been trained by Xu Bijun for so many years, she still couldn't hide the expression on her face. Her eyes were filled with envy and jealousy when she looked at Shen Wenjiao.

Well, could it be that this girl thinks this is a good thing?

The dinner ended in such a rare happy atmosphere.

"Wenjiao, come to the study. I have something to tell you~" Mr. Shen didn't even glance at Shen Wenjiao's mother, Grandma Shen, who was sitting next to her, which showed how much he disliked Grandma Shen and how little he cared about her opinion.

There was not much change on Grandma Shen's face, but her hand hidden under the table squeezed Shen Wenjiao's hand with concern.

Shen Wenjiao had expected this and gave Grandma Shen a reassuring smile when she stood up.

Xu Bijun smiled complacently. Look, what's wrong with following me to Beiping? Once Shen Wenjiao is married off, a woman with bound feet won't be able to escape. She will be at her mercy. With this woman in hand, there's no need to worry about Shen Wenjiao, who has married a rich man, being disobedient.

As soon as the father and daughter entered the study, Mr. Shen got straight to the point and said to Shen Wenjiao, "Wenjiao, Mrs. Saito has taken a liking to you and wants to introduce you to an excellent man. You should get to know him first, and if he is a good match, he will be a good match for you."

Shen Wenjiao felt sick to her stomach when she saw Master Shen pretending to be doing it for her own good, but in order to preserve her image, she answered in a naive and arrogant manner.

"Dad, I don't want to meet any outstanding men. I still have to take the high school entrance exam and the college entrance exam. I don't want to get married."

Shen Wenjiao put a fist on her chest, looking like she was shouting slogans to uphold her ideals. "Arranged marriages in the old era are the dregs that should be abandoned. As educated women of the new era, we should have our own persistence and ideals. Getting married and becoming a good wife and mother is a waste of my knowledge. My ideal is to become a great literary master."

Shen Wenjiao's speech was a bit silly because she had read too much, but Master Shen was not surprised at all. After all, his daughter had studied very hard in the past few years. Every day after dinner, she would stay in her room reading, writing and drawing non-stop. Compared with girls who were three or four years older than her, she was always among the top in school, which earned him a lot of face.

Mr. Shen actually knew that Shen Wenjiao would not agree easily, and what Shen Wenjiao said was not unexpected at all. After all, he still hoped that Shen Wenjiao would be willing, "Jiaojiao, you have misunderstood Dad. Men with good conditions are very popular. If Dad didn't love you more, he would have introduced you to Wanting directly! Besides, I didn't say that you should get married now! Get to know each other first, and it won't delay your continued studies if you give her to your friends!"

What Mr. Shen said made sense. If Shen Wenjiao didn’t know all the reasons, she would have thought that her father really loved her!

"More friends mean more paths. Wenjiao, you've grown up and it's time for you to make more friends! Okay, it's settled. Tomorrow, Mrs. Saito invites you to Sanqingyuan to watch a play. Be sensible, okay?"

Mr. Shen is not a kind and amiable person at all. In his mind, the entire Shen family depends on him for food and drink, so everyone must listen to him and act according to his will.

Shen Wenjiao pouted her lips in an unhappy look, but she did not say anything rude to object.

Mr. Shen nodded with satisfaction. Wen Jiao was still very obedient to him, but she had become a little conceited at school.

Mr. Shen looked at Shen Wenjiao, who was becoming more and more beautiful with her knowledge of poetry and books, and nodded in his heart. Isn't this the kind of style men like?
