Chapter 21 Only Me in Her Eyes
Seeing his aggrieved look, Qi Yingfang felt her heart ache. She sighed helplessly, then said very readily, âJust go. If sheâs angry, tell her to come to me!â
âThank you, Mom! â Xue Chenkong immediately stood up and ran over.
From a distance, he could hear the fourth son Shen Manxuanâs indignant voice. âAh Ting, do you think that your older brothers would not know their limits at this age? We knew that he couldnât drink, so we only left after seeing him put on his clothes. Who knew that he wouldnât follow us? Iâm telling you, heâs a scheming boy!â âThatâs right, I saw it all. He was fully dressedâ¦â
Xue Chenkong stopped in his tracks, his eyes gloomy. As expected, they were complaining to Shen Manting! He reached out and was about to push the door open when he heard Shen Mantingâs soft voice. âWho would joke with their own lives? Forget it, this matter ends here. In any case, remember what I said today.â
Shen Manting heard footsteps at the door, then got up and opened it. The man who was eavesdropping at the door didnât have time to leave. âAh Tingâ¦â
âWhy are you standing here?â Shen Manting asked, puzzled.
Xue Chenkongâs face flashed with embarrassment. âJ- Just now⦠Ah Ting, when are we going home?â.
âWhatâs wrong?â Shen Manting frowned.
âI⦠Iâm not feeling well⦠â As he spoke, Xue Chenkong glanced at the brothers. He looked nervous, as if he was afraidâ¦
The brothers gritted their teeth in anger. The man was starting to be shameless again!
âLet me see. â Shen Manting thought he was really unwell. She reached out and touched his forehead, which was a little hot. She quickly took his hand and said, âLetâs go back now.
Xue Chenkong immediately put his arm around her shoulders in an overbearing manner. âAh Ting, letâs go quickly.â Then, behind Shen Manting, he gave the seven people a provocative and smug look.
When Shen Manting was leaving, her brothers gave her wedding gifts one after another, each more valuable than the other. Shen Manting said helplessly, âI wonât accept the gifts. I really donât need anything.â Furthermore, Xue Chenkong had already bought her everything one could think of.
âThis is for your dignity, so just take it! â The sixth brother, Shen Manzhou, looked at Xue Chenkong and said, âThe Shen family didnât sell you off for money. If youâre ever wronged, you can come home. Weâll support you for the rest of your life!â
Shen Manting knew that her sixth brother had said it on purpose for Xue Chenkong to hear. She felt warm in her heart. In the end, she had no choice but to accept a pile of valuable items, including several mansions worth hundreds of millions. That was the love that her brothers had given her.
Usually, she wouldnât feel anything, but now that she was leaving to build a family of her own, she was a little reluctant.
However, when they were about to leave, Shen Manting suddenly thought of something. She looked at Shen Manyang and said, âManyangâ¦â âWhatâs wrong, Ah Ting?â Shen Manyang asked.
Shen Manting paused for a moment. Since everyone was there, she decided to talk about it next time. Then, she changed the topic. âKeep an eye on Dad. Donât let him drink anymore!â Shen Manyang could sense that his sister had other things to say, but he did not ask further. âDonât worry. If you need anything, just call
US.â
Xue Chenkong looked at Shen Mantingâs reluctant look and felt discontented. Shen Manting only had eyes for her brothers⦠Then, he got into the car without saying a word.
Shen Manting knew that Xue Chenkong wasnât a patient person. Besides, it wasnât like she was never coming back. She bade farewell to her family, turned around, and got into the car.
Shen Guangsi and Qi Yingfang watched from a distance. It was the first time they felt as if their younger daughter had really left home. Having gotten married, she would have her own home.
Shen Guangsiâs eyes were sore, while Qi Yingfang broke into tears. âAh Ting, come back more often if you have the time.â
âI know, you guys go in quickly. â Shen Mantingâs eyes turned red as well. She tried her best to squeeze out a smile, not wanting her parents to worry.
Seeing that his daughter was about to cry, Shen Guangsi couldnât hold it in any longer. âAll right, you guys should leave. Those who donât know would think that weâre going to be separated forever. Itâs only a half an hourâs journey away.â
Shen Manting looked at the reflection in the car window that was gradually fading away. Her heart felt heavy. In her dream, her sister-in-law Le Yiqing had jumped into the sea to end her own life, and her brother Shen Manyang had jumped in after her. It was a pity that Shen Lili had become an orphan at the age of twoâ¦
As Shen Mantingâs thoughts were heavy, the man next to her looked at the gifts in her hand. He pursed his lips, and his eyes were misty with grievance.
