But now that she did not have Shen Lin’s contact information, she could only go and beg the Shen family. She felt especially helpless after knowing that her uncle was captured. Seeing her mother lying on the bed in the hospital, she could not think straight anymore. She wanted to have someone to rely on.
And who could she rely on now? Of course, Shen Lin was the only one left!
Yu Jing went to Shen Mansion by taxi. But she was no longer allowed even to get through the gate. So, she could only cry and throw a fit. The guards at the gate did not dare to touch her, so they informed Grandpa Shen about her. But Grandpa Shen did not bother to take care of the matter, he just sent Huang Yu to go and deal with her.
Huang Yu looked at his son. Although Shen Lin did not say anything, she knew that he wanted to properly bid farewell to Yu Jing and end their relations.h.i.+p.
Shen Lin was humiliated and trampled on by her. Even Mu Qiqi hoped that he would be brave enough to say no to that woman. So, how could he disappoint his parents and relatives?
So, Shen Lin looked at his mother who was hesitating and said, “Mother, let me go and see her.”
“Can you really handle the matter?” Huang Yu was afraid that her son might forgive her.
Shen Lin did not hide his feelings, but he insisted. “Just let me go. I want to know the truth.”
“I understand. Go.” Huang Yu nodded.
Shen Lin could guess the reason Yu Jing was looking for him. She must be looking for someone who could support her. The Rong family had totally fallen after her parents and uncle got into accidents.
This woman had been living like a parasite. She had relied on other people to survive. She had never wanted to take responsibility.
Shen Lin took firm steps to the gate. He saw Yu Jing squatting outside the gate. There was no joy in her eyes. Her eyes were only full of hatred and anger.
When Yu Jing saw Shen Lin, she immediately ran toward him and hugged his legs. “Shen Lin, you have finally come to see me. I know you will come. You wouldn’t abandon me.”
Shen Lin stood motionless. He let her hug his legs. Thinking of the days he was humiliated by Yu Jing, what he saw now was complete irony.
“I remember very clearly you told me that day, that I am useless. I have no skills and only know how to ask money from my parents.”
“I was just saying it out of anger.”
“But I think you are right.” Shen Lin sneered. “A lowly man like me is not worth to be begged for forgiveness by someone so n.o.ble like you.”
As Shen Lin said that, he held her face. “Do you not want your dignity anymore? Do you even have shame? Do you know how to spell the word ‘cheap’?”
“Shen Lin…”
“I have been thinking for these few days, why would someone like you love a useless man like me. Now I understand. Because you have no skill as well. You are just a log on the bed. You don’t just ask for money from your parents. You even go around scamming other men. Why did you look down on me?”
Tears rolled down on Yu Jing’s cheeks. With her chin being held by Shen Lin, she could not talk.
“Look at you. Now that your uncle and your parents are doomed, didn’t you still come for me? You said that I am cheap. Then are you worse than me!”
“Shen Lin, do you not love me?”
“Love?” Shen Lin jeered. He looked up to the sky and said, “My love was gone when you humiliated me. My love was nothing compared to the humiliation you gave me.”
“Do you really think you are a rare beauty? Do you really think that I will not be able to live without you?”
“Yu Jing, take a good look. The Shen family is rich and powerful. Will I, Shen Lin, be short of women? Yes, I was deceived by you before. But I can get a divorce and there will still be someone who will love me. Because I will become better. And you?”
“You will sink into quicksand, and then h.e.l.l.”
“Why should I keep on liking you?”
Hearing Shen Lin’s words, Yu Jing quickly repented. “I will change. I will not say those harsh words again. I promise you I will change. Trust me.”
Thinking about the woman before his eyes, and thinking of his old self, Shen Lin felt that everything was ridiculous and worthless.
He did not expect that the one who he was wailing to give everything to was someone like this!
At last, he felt relieved. He freed himself from Yu Jing. “I don’t want to see your face again! Don’t let me see you again.”
“Shen Lin…”
“Get lost.”
This time, Shen Lin had really made up his mind. How silly and fragile true love and loyalty were in front of money.
Yu Jing was yelling behind him, but he did not listen anymore.
It was not worth it to be dragged into h.e.l.l by someone like this!
Huang Yu finally saw her son back in the house. When she knew that Yu Jing was still throwing a fit outside, she knew her son had cut their ties. She was relieved.
“Wait until spring next year and you shall join the army. Become a proper man and don’t disappoint your grandfather again.”
Shen Lin held Huang Yu’s hands tight and nodded. “Don’t worry, Mom. Once is enough, I will not be fooled twice.”
“Qiqi is a good sister. You should protect and thank her.”
“I will!”
To a man, once he takes it to heart, it would be a lifelong commitment.
Mu Qiqi had protected his parents and revealed the conspiracy behind his marriage. He would remember her kindness for a lifetime. From now on, if anyone in the Shen family bullied Mu Qiqi, he would be the first one to defend her.
“Your eldest cousin is coming back soon. I think your third aunt does not seem to like Qiqi very much. Keep an eye on her.”
“Yes.”
“Go back to your room.” Huang Yu patted her son on his shoulders and told him to get some rest.
As for Yu Jing who was still outside, they would just let her be.
Speaking of Shen Lin’s eldest cousin, Shen Ruoyi, was a hardworking girl since young. She graduated from the university at a young age and she was already studying for her postgraduate degree. She was known as a talented lady.
Grandpa Shen had no reason not to like this granddaughter, but deep down his heart, he loved Mu Qiqi more.
Because Shen Ruoyi grew up in a castle, while Mu Qiqi not.
And because of Grandpa Shen’s att.i.tude, Third Aunt was anxious. She urged her daughter to come home quickly.
The young man of the Lin family was the man she had chosen for her daughter. She did not want Mu Qiqi to get him.
However, Shen Ruoyi was indifferent. “Mommy, I will go home tomorrow. But can you stop pairing me with that man? I do not like that kind of young talented man.”
1“Who do you like then?
“I… I don’t know.” Shen Ruoyi was not on the same frequency with her mother. “Right, that new younger cousin. Is her name Mu Qiqi? What does she like? I will buy some souvenirs for her.”
“What does it have to do with you? I warn you, don’t get too close with her.”
“She is a b.a.s.t.a.r.d child that would seize your things!”
