Chapter 477: Why Is She Targeting Me?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Xinghe stole a glance at s.h.i.+ Jin and nodded. “I understand. I hope you will think it through before you do anything in the future.”
s.h.i.+ Xuexin bit her lips and tried her best to suppress her anger.
Everyone knew they were wrong and apologized to Shen Xinghe, but Shen Xinghe was not particularly concerned.
When work ended at night, he could not help feeling happy. “Finally, it’s over. Speaking of which, it’s quite unfortunate that s.h.i.+ Xuexin found such a troubling a.s.sistant.”
“Do you really think that the a.s.sistant did it?” s.h.i.+ Jin asked.
Shen Xinghe had always been a straightforward person, so he was stunned for a moment. “It is indeed a little strange. If s.h.i.+ Xuexin was really sure that I was the one who did it, she would have already spread the news and destroyed my reputation on Weibo. However, she did not do that. Instead, she resolved it in private… But why? If she really did it, why did she target me?”
s.h.i.+ Jin saw that he was a straightforward and innocent child and sighed. “You’ll know later.”
He probably thought that he had never shown s.h.i.+ Qing’s photo to anyone else, so it didn’t matter. However, how could people like s.h.i.+ Xuexin and her mother ignore his presence?

At the hospital:
Fu Xiuyuan accompanied s.h.i.+ Jin over to get Shen Xinghe’s test report.
She had already gotten hold of Shen Xinghe’s hair and found a way to meet s.h.i.+ Qing. Getting s.h.i.+ Qing’s hair was very simple.
Fu Xiuyuan asked softly, “When did you find out?”
“When I saw the photo he kept.” s.h.i.+ Jin smiled. “Do you think I’m quite vicious? Once I noticed anything amiss, I went to find out the result immediately. If Shen Xinghe’s ident.i.ty is confirmed, Yu Xiuhua and s.h.i.+ Xuexin’s position in the s.h.i.+ family will be in danger. I’m going to break up this family indirectly.”
“What you’re doing is not called evil.”
s.h.i.+ Jin smiled. “What is it called then?”
“It’s called justice on behalf of the heavens.”
s.h.i.+ Jin could not help lowering her head as she recalled her childhood. “Grandpa s.h.i.+ has always been good to me. He genuinely treats me as his granddaughter. I had originally wanted to leave Shen Xinghe’s ident.i.ty and I would not probe further. However, if the huge s.h.i.+ family is really going to be destroyed by s.h.i.+ Xuexin, then he will really have nothing to rely on.”
“You didn’t do anything wrong. s.h.i.+ Xuexin made a move on Shen Xinghe first, which shows her evil intentions. You only did what you should have done.”
s.h.i.+ Jin felt comforted.
The two of them took the DNA test report from the doctor.
s.h.i.+ Jin already had a definite answer in her heart, but she was still a little nervous when she opened it.
Fu Xiuyuan took it. “Why don’t you look at it later?”
“It’s okay. Let’s look at it now.”
He handed the report back to her.
s.h.i.+ Jin took it and flipped to the page. When she saw the results, she pursed her lips and closed the report again.
Fu Xiuyuan didn’t ask anything and just stayed by her side.

Back at Orchid Pavilion.
s.h.i.+ Jin mixed the medicine and pa.s.sed it to Butler Chen. “Butler Chen, this is for Sister. Please send it over.”
Butler Chen immediately responded and rushed to the Fu Family with the medicine.
Fu Xiuyuan walked to her side. “What did you prescribe for her?”
“Medicine to nourish the body. It’s good for women,” s.h.i.+ Jin answered casually.
“Isn’t Sister in good health?”
“Women’s bodies are always more or less problematic.” s.h.i.+ Jin reached out and placed her hand on his neck. “However, it will be fine soon.”
Fu Xiuyuan enjoyed seeing her like this. She was confident, gentle, and could handle anything with ease.
From her eyes, one could see her love and light for the world.

The next day, s.h.i.+ Jin made an appointment with Shen Shuangnan.
In a private room in a high-end cafe.
When Shen Shuangnan arrived, s.h.i.+ Jin stood up.
As the weather turned warmer, she wore a light blue long sweater. The oversized style made her look lazy, and her slender arms were exposed from the sweater, making her look even more delicate.
Shen Shuangnan sized her up with his deep gaze and smiled. “It’s rare that you would ask me out.”
“Because I have to give you this personally.” s.h.i.+ Jin smiled as she took out a pot of the primordial Desert Savior from her bag and pushed it in front of Shen Shuangnan.
“You want to return this to me?” Shen Shuangnan frowned and chuckled. “I never take back things that I give away easily.”
“We agreed that I would help keep it safe for a month. It’s time now,” s.h.i.+ Jin said. “A gentleman does not take what others like. I’m the same. Besides, Boss Shen, this is not the same pot anymore.”
“Is that so?” Shen Shuangnan’s curiosity was piqued.
He was quite familiar with the pot, but he couldn’t tell what was different about it.
However, it could be seen that they were all of the same good quality. There were no blemishes, and they were also the best among the variety of succulents.
s.h.i.+ Jin smiled and said, “Thank you, Boss Shen, for giving me this last time. It was a great help. When you gave it to me, I realized that the pot of primordial Desert Savior had already split into a small bud. I cut off the small bud and cultivated it into a new one. Therefore, this pot is still the same one, but it’s also not the same as before.”
“You kept the new one?” Shen Shuangnan asked.
“Yes.” In fact, s.h.i.+ Jin had already incorporated it into the medicine for Fu Heyan. However, there was no need for Shen Shuangnan to know about this.
“Since that’s the case…” Shen Shuangnan raised an eyebrow and reached out to take the primordial Desert Savior. “I’ll keep this pot. ”
Seeing that he had taken it back, s.h.i.+ Jin was very satisfied. She did not want to owe him a favor for no reason. Returning it to its owner was the best way to deal with it.
“I have already accepted President Shen’s kind intentions. I am an artist funded by the Shen Group. Naturally, I will share both honor and disgrace with the Shen Group.”
Seeing that s.h.i.+ Jin had intentionally placed the work relations.h.i.+p at the very front, Shen Shuangnan could not help but laugh. “s.h.i.+ Jin, I think we go beyond a work relations.h.i.+p.”
“The work relations.h.i.+p makes me feel more at ease. Benefits make a long-term relations.h.i.+p, doesn’t it, President Shen?” s.h.i.+ Jin raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Shen Shuangnan calmly.
Facing her clear eyes, Shen Shuangnan didn’t say anything.
When s.h.i.+ Jin left, he watched her retreating back.
When s.h.i.+ Jin went downstairs, Fu Xiuyuan walked towards her. They had come together.
Fu Xiuyuan had nothing against Shen Shuangnan, but when s.h.i.+ Jin saw his clothes, she could not help but smile.
She was wearing a loose blue sweater today, and for the first time, Fu Xiuyuan didn’t wear a suit and chose a blue sweater jacket instead. However, even though it was a very casual style, it still had a special charm to it when worn on his model body, making him look even more handsome and extraordinary.
When Shen Shuangnan looked downstairs, he saw s.h.i.+ Jin leaving, her hands around a man’s arm.
