Chapter 258 - Shen Jingyi"s Situation
"Mom, let me tell you the truth. Someone like Tan Tiefeng has been spoiled since he was young. I definitely won"t be able to get along with someone like him. Don"t waste your time on this, okay?" Shen Jingyi said helplessly.
How could she like someone like Tan Tianfeng? No matter how extraordinary his talent was, no matter how powerful his strength was, what could he do?!"What nonsense!" The middle-aged man sitting across from him reprimanded. This man was none other than Shen Jingyi"s father, Shen Jiucheng.
"Jingyi, I don"t want to hear any more of this from now on!" Shen Jicheng let out a cold snort, reprimanding his daughter, "Your grandfather and your Second Master personally arranged this marriage with the Tan Family. No one can change this!"
"I don"t agree!" Shen Jingyi huffed, "This is no longer your era. If you don"t respect my opinion, then the one who will suffer in the end won"t be me!"
"Jingyi, how can you talk to your dad like that!" Shen Jingyi"s mother quickly said."Humph!"
Shen Jingyi firmly said, "Anyways, I just don"t agree. You don"t know about Tan Tianfeng"s evil deeds. If you think about my happiness, you should seriously consider it!"
"Go back to your room immediately!" Shen Jicheng glared at him and said, "Without my permission, you are not allowed to take even half a step outside the house!"
"... "We"ll go back then!" Shen Jingyi stomped her feet in anger and turned around to go upstairs.Only Shen Jicheng and his wife were left in the living room. Watching his daughter enter the room, Shen Jiucheng shook his head and said, "This girl really has a temper now. She actually dares to talk back to me!"
"Isn"t that what you"re used to!" Shen Jingyi"s mother said, "If you didn"t pamper her that much, would she dare to talk to you like that?"
"Yes, my pet. You have no pet!" Shen Jiucheng harrumphed.The couple looked at each other and couldn"t help but laugh. Both husband and wife were doting on their daughter.
"Jiu Cheng, what Jingyi said is right. Although Tan Tianfeng is the young master of the Tan family, we still don"t know much about his character." Shen Jingyi"s mother said, "I think we should consider it more carefully."
Shen Jicheng could not help but shake his head, and said, "That is true, but this matter was decided by the Old Master and Second Uncle, what"s the use of us thinking about it?"
"Then …"
"Actually, I also know that Tan Tianfeng has a bad character. This matter has always been weighing heavily on my heart." Shen Jicheng said, "But there"s nothing I can do about it. After all, this marriage was decided by the old man, and it concerns the relations.h.i.+p and cooperation between the Shen and Tan families, so I can"t say anything!"
"How do you know that Tan Tianfeng has a bad character?" Shen Jingyi couldn"t help asking."Humph!" I am Jingyi"s father, so of course I would pay extra attention to her matters. " Shen Jicheng said, "I"ve investigated Tan Tianfeng before. Some of his actions are really outrageous!"
"Then you …" Shen Jingyi"s mother was a little confused, "Jiucheng, we can"t push Jingyi into a pit of fire just for the sake of our family, can we?" How about you go and plead with the lordmaster and see if there"s still room for compromise? "
"This won"t do!"
Shen Jicheng could not help but shake his head, "This matter is not easy to explain. It"s not like you don"t know the situation regarding Second Uncle, they themselves are very dissatisfied with me being the General Manager of the Shen Group, they have been wanting to seize power for a long time. Now, if there is any more problems with Jingyi"s matter, they will definitely immediately make a move. I think that"s what they"re waiting for! "
"These people are really something, to be betrothed to someone, why don"t we let their daughter be betrothed to someone?!" When Shen Jingyi"s mother heard this, she was instantly enraged. "You put in all your effort for the sake of the Shen Corporation. They didn"t even say a word of thanks. And yet, they"re still thinking of how to usurp power …""Actually, it"s not only a matter of seizing power. The mysteries contained within are hard to fully describe with a single sentence." Shen Jicheng could not help but shake his head, "If Jingyi is with Tan Tianfeng, then it would be extremely beneficial for a lot of people on Second Uncle"s side!"
"Humph!"
Shen Jingyi"s mother was very angry, "These people are really excessive. My daughter isn"t a commodity. She"s not someone they can exchange with just because they said so!"
"Therefore, I must find a suitable opportunity!"
Shen Jicheng said, "Anyways, Jingyi is still in school, so we still have time to mediate the marriage. I chased Jingyi into my room to prevent her from going out. That is, I didn"t want her to speak carelessly outside and let Second Uncle and his men find out who she was … "I will take advantage of this opportunity and think of a way!"
It was only then that Shen Jingyi"s mother relaxed. She happily said, "So that"s the case, I thought …""Do you think I"m someone who doesn"t care about Jingyi"s life for the clan?" Shen Jicheng shook his head and said, "You, Jingyi is my daughter, how can I not care about her?"
"Then you have to think of a solution as soon as possible. I heard from Jingyi that Tan Tianfeng went to the Jiang Prefecture to find her!" Shen Jingyi"s mother anxiously said."Rest a.s.sured, I will think of a solution as soon as possible!" Shen Jicheng nodded his head, "However, on Jingyi"s side, you must take care of her. You must not let her go out this summer, and even more so don"t speak nonsense in front of others. Do you understand?"
"Then... Isn"t this equivalent to locking up Jingyi? "
"I"m going to lock him up!"
Shen Jicheng clenched his teeth, steeled his heart, and said: "Let"s just endure this summer for now, if it really doesn"t work, then let Jingyi stay at her grandma"s house for a while … …" Talk more to Jingyi and learn her thoughts. In my opinion, the reason she suddenly brought up the matter regarding Tan Tianfeng might not be because Tan Tianfeng went to Jiang Prefecture to look for her. "She"s a boy that she likes!"
"Ah?!"
Shen Jingbin"s mother couldn"t help but be slightly stunned. She then nodded and said, "We"ll have to have a good talk with her.""Ai!"
Shen Jicheng could not help but shake his head, lightly sighed and said, "This is what I"m most worried about, once this news spreads to Second Uncle, I really don"t know how this matter will end!"
Upstairs, in Shen Jingyi"s bedroom.
"Sigh... From the looks of it, this is going to be troublesome! " Shen Jingbin sat on the chair in her room and dragged her chin as she thought to herself helplessly, "No way, I must find an opportunity to tell them about Zhang Lei"s matter and let them be mentally prepared!"In reality, Shen Jingyi had told Zhang Lei that her family already knew about them, and that she was lying to Zhang Lei. Her goal was to encourage Zhang Lei to improve, hoping that he would agree to learn the Internal Martial Arts that she taught him.
However, Shen Jingyi had not expected Zhang Lei to be so stubborn. He simply refused to learn her inner force cultivation technique.
In reality, Shen Jingyi"s parents still didn"t know about her relations.h.i.+p with Zhang Lei.
Shen Jingbin originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to probe her parents, but she discovered that her parents" att.i.tude was very unyielding. This made her not dare to easily speak of Zhang Lei"s matter, otherwise, if her parents went to look for Zhang Lei, then it would be troublesome.
"What should I do..." Shen Jingyi was extremely vexed.
… ….
Just as Shen Jingbin was feeling distressed, a young man came to her home. This person was none other than Tan Tianfeng.
"Uncle Shen, Auntie, is Jingyi here?" Tan Tianfeng asked politely.
When Shen Jiucheng saw that Tan Tianfeng had come to visit, he could not help but be slightly startled, feeling somewhat displeased in his heart. To be honest, he didn"t really want his daughter to be together with this hedonistic son of a b.i.t.c.h, but since Tan Tianfeng was here, it wasn"t good for him to just head out.
Thus, Shen Jicheng said, "Jingyi is tired and resting upstairs."
His words were as good as telling Tan Tianfeng that my family"s Jingyi is not suitable to see you today.
However, it was as if Tan Tianfeng didn"t understand. He only smiled and said: "It"s alright, I"ll go up to see her. Uncle Shen, Auntie, you guys can busy yourselves first, I"m going up!"
Shen Jicheng"s brows immediately furrowed. Tan Tianfeng did not put them in his eyes at all. He simply treated this place as his own home!"There"s no need to go up. Jingyi is resting. You"re just a boy, it"s inconvenient for you to go up!" Shen Jiucheng said lightly.
"Yeah, Tianfeng, don"t go up there." Shen Jingyi"s mother also said from the side.
Tan Tianfeng laughed, "What"s wrong with that? Uncle Shen, Jing Yi and I are going to be together sooner or later anyways. I"ll go up and see her now, so there"s nothing wrong with it!"
Shen Jiucheng frowned, this Tan Tianfeng was indeed a little too arrogant!
To act so brazenly in front of Shen Jingyi"s parents without any regard for anyone else was no longer arrogant. It was simply brazen!
"Tan, you should go back first. I"ll tell her when Jingyi is rested!" Shen Jiancai was too lazy to waste words with Tan Tianfeng, and directly said. He had never had any good feelings towards this playboy, not to mention that this Tan Tiefeng was actually so unscrupulous!Tan Tianfeng"s expression darkened. He frowned and asked, "Uncle Shen, why do I see that you"re not very satisfied with me?"
"Humph!"Shen Jicheng"s face sunk, and lightly said: "Little Tan, where did you come up with that? If you don"t understand something, you can go back and ask your parents! "
"Does Uncle Shen saying these words mean that I"m uncultured?" Tan Tianfeng asked with a smile that was not a smile, "Uncle Shen, there"s something I want to remind you of. The marriage between Jingyi and I was decided by my grandfather together with Jingyi"s Grandpa Shen. Before you stop me from seeing Jingyi, I hope you can consider this!"
"Get out!"
Shen Jicheng"s face turned cold, he pointed at the door and said in a low voice, "Leave immediately!"
