At that moment, Lian Meng was having fun outside when she suddenly received a call from her brother. She thought that he was asking her to go home, but to her surprise, he sent her on a very important mission. She immediately perked up and nodded. “Okay! I promise to complete the mission!”
...Ever since Lian Jing bought this house for Shen Yin, he had sent people to clean it every day. Although no one lived in the old mansion, it was spotlessly clean.
This was the first time Shen Nian was visiting the place Shen Yin had lived as a child and he found everything interesting. “Mom, which room did you sleep in when you were young?”
“The innermost room.” Shen Yin pointed at the small courtyard that was blocked by the bushes. It was really small compared to the other spacious courtyards, but it was filled with the laughter of Shen Yin and her grandfather.
At that time, Shen Yin was young and had no mother to take care of her. All the children in the area knew that Shen Yin’s mother was not legitimate, so none of them were willing to play with her.
Every time Shen Luo came back happily, she would come to the small courtyard in the corner to show off. At the same time, she would tell her all the bad things that the children outside had said about Shen Yin, as if afraid that she would not know about them.
It was not until her grandfather heard her badmouthing Shen Yin and reprimanded Shen Luo harshly that she restrained herself.
Shen Yin remembered that at that time, the peach tree at the entrance of the courtyard were blooming, and some of the petals had fallen into this small courtyard. They became her favorite jewelry.
Her grandfather would collect petals with her and make them into beautiful bracelets and necklaces. When she wore them, she suddenly felt that she too, could be happy one day.
The tree in the courtyard was still there, but the old man and child under the tree were gone.
Shen Nian did not know that his mother was reminiscing about her bittersweet past. He skipped to the tree, picked up a petal, and placed it in her hand. His eyes sparkled. “Mom, your small courtyard must have been very beautiful back then, right?”
“Yes, it was very beautiful.” Shen Yin squinted against the sunlight and sat comfortably in the shade under the tree.
Lian Meng was holding two bowls of fruits. When she saw them, she smiled in surprise and said, “Sister-in-law, Nian Nian, I was just looking for you. I didn’t realize you were here. Come and eat some fruits. I just asked someone to pick them from the tree in the backyard.”
There was indeed a tidy field at the back of the courtyard. Grandpa had created it because he had nothing to do. Every summer, it would bear a few fruits.
Lin He despised the slightly sour fruit and never allowed Shen Luo to pick them. Later on, they all ended up in Shen Yin’s stomach.
She felt that they were very sweet, but she did not know if Lian Meng and Nian Nian would be used to it.
“Mm! It’s so delicious!”
Just as she was feeling a little worried, Lian Meng took a bite of the fruit. The sweet juice spread in her mouth. This was the first time she had eaten something she had picked herself and she thought it was a novel experience. She was even more satisfied with this than the delicacies she ate at home.
“Oh right.” She selected a big fruit for Shen Yin and a smaller one for Nian Nian. Then, she smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, I heard from Zhong Xin that my brother has made a major move recently. The company that Fu Ting took over has already held an emergency board meeting because they lost a few big deals.”
“Then can we go home soon?” Shen Nian jumped up happily, forgetting to eat the fruit in his hand.
Lian Meng tapped his nose dotingly and smiled. “Not yet. Although we have dealt Fu Ting’s company a huge blow, we will need a solid reason if we want your great-grandfather to agree to let him go back to Liancheng.”
Shen Yin suddenly raised her head to look at Lian Meng. Suddenly, she saw the innocent girl who had almost been violated many years ago. Her heart was in turmoil. “Don’t tell me he wants to…”
Although Lian Jing had his doubts about what had happened back then, Old
Master Lian probably did not believe it. If he could prove that Fu Ting and Lian’e had really planned that incident, then Fu Ting would have no reason to stay.
However, once this matter was exposed, the person who would be hurt the most would be Lian Meng.
Shen Yin did not want Lian Jing to bring up that old incident again because of her. She could not help reaching out to hold her hand and say, “If he wants to bring up that old matter again, I definitely won’t agree.”
There must be another reason to get rid of Fu Ting. Unless absolutely necessary, she did not want Lian Jing to expose Lian Meng’s scars, which had not yet healed.
That incident was a nightmare that Lian Meng could never shake off. However, a nightmare was just a nightmare. If it was brought up again and everyone found out about it, it would undoubtedly rub salt in her wounds.
Lian Meng was stunned for a moment, as if she could not follow Shen Yin’s train of thought. When she looked into Shen Yin’s pain -filled eyes, she thought of something and shook her head with a bitter smile. “So my brother told you everything. But don’t worry, Sister-in-law. Although my brother is rather mean with his words, and his temper is rather bad, and his personality is a little unpleasant, he’s a very good brother. He’ll be a very good husband and father in the future..”
