Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

Chapter 151 Ai Shutong's Makeup Performance

Shen Jiaxing's mind worked quickly and he quickly found a topic and interrupted their conversation.

"Shutong, this time you are going to show up at Qianduju, the Jin Mansion will definitely get the news, have you thought of a way to deal with it?"

Ai Shutong shook her head. "Didn't you tell me before that Master Jin had been stripped of his position? Why would I be afraid of him?"

Shen Jiaxing really couldn't understand Ai Shutong. Sometimes he felt that she was too smart, but at other times he would inadvertently discover that she was as ignorant as a child.

"You haven't married yet. As your father, Mr. Jin has absolute control over you."

Ai Shutong got angry when she heard this, "Why? What kind of father is he? I said he's not my father!"

Shen Jiaxing: "Okay, as long as you firmly refuse to admit that he is your father, there will be no big problem. You can't hesitate for a moment."

Ai Shutong nodded affirmatively, "I never considered him as my father."

Shen Jiaxing asked again: "Where is your current registered residence?"

Ai Shutong: "In Nanshi, Shanghai. I have a building there."

Shen Jiaxing and Shen Jialing looked at her expressionlessly.

Ai Shutong touched her face and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Jiaxing gave her a knowing look.

Ai Shutong thought for a minute and said, "Suddenly realized that I'm not poor?"

"What's so surprising about this? I'm not poor at all!"

Shen Jiaxing: "Please return the money I paid for the train ticket this time."

Ai Shutong's mouth twitched twice, and she complained: "How stingy! You have five buildings in the French Concession, and I didn't say anything. What's a building in Nanshi!"

Shen Jialing couldn't help but said, "Sister Ai, don't you know that unmarried women can't have private property?"

Ai Shutong directly denied it: "It's impossible. Many of my female classmates and friends have their own businesses."

Shen Jialing said dejectedly: "An unmarried girl's property cannot be taken away when she gets married if her father disagrees with her taking it away."

Shen Jiaxing suddenly said, "Don't you read the newspaper often? Didn't you see that Shanghai socialite Sheng Mingxi sued her three brothers in court some time ago?"

Ai Shutong thought about it and realized that she had been kidnapped and murdered for a few days recently, and she was in a state of panic all day long.

“Maybe I missed it and didn’t see it!”

Shen Jiaxing: "Sheng Mingxi is the smartest child of industrialist Sheng Ziyi. He showed a talent for business since he was a child and opened many restaurants and hotels in the concession."

"Her mother died a long time ago. After her father died this year, her shop was completely divided up by her three brothers, leaving her nothing."

"She doesn't want to offend her three brothers because of this. After all, after getting married, she still needs her brothers from her natal family to support her."

"She only made one request, asking her three brothers to raise 50,000 yuan for her because she wanted to study abroad."

"But her three brothers refused, saying that she was a girl and could not inherit the property."

"You have to know that the total value of the restaurants and hotels opened by Sheng Mingxi is more than 700,000 yuan. Fifty thousand yuan is nothing."

Ai Shutong asked curiously: "Then what? Is that the end of it?"

Shen Jiaxing shook his head. "Sheng Mingxi is a famous socialite in Shanghai. With the support of socialites such as Chen Yunnuo and Lin Manli, she filed a lawsuit and brought her three brothers to court."

Ai Shutong: "What was the result? Did you win?"

Shen Jiaxing: "The result is winning without winning, and losing without losing!"

Ai Shutong raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

Shen Jiaxing: "Sheng Mingxi received 50,000 yuan for study."

Ai Shutong was silent. Out of more than 700,000 yuan, only 50,000 yuan was left, which she got only after going to court.

You have to know that ordinary women don’t even have the courage to offend their fathers and brothers, let alone go to court.

Shen Jiaxing looked at the four silent girls and waved to the tea waiter, "Give us a pot of tea."

Everything on the train is expensive. A pot of ordinary tea costs three dollars.

Shen Jiaxing paid the bill and poured each of them a cup of tea. "God will not disappoint sincere people. Good things happen for a reason."

"You are all hardworking girls. God will never let you down."

Ai Shutong took the tea and drank it in one gulp. "I am now an orphan. Mr. Li is my uncle. As long as I don't get married, no man can hurt me."

Shen Jiaxing comforted her, "Don't worry too much. Society is progressing and the future will be better and better."

Ai Shutong raised her eyelids and glanced at the man who was making sarcastic remarks.

Shen Jialing was much more direct than her, "You are a man, of course you agreed."

Shen Jiaxing immediately realized that he had become a public enemy, so it would be better for him not to speak any more. No matter what he said at this time, it would be wrong.

When it was time to sleep at night, Ai Shutong and Xia Yu shared a compartment. The compartment was not big and only had two single beds.

After the two lay down, Xia Yu tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

Ai Shutong suddenly said, "What's wrong? Can't sleep?"

Xia Yu froze, "I'm sorry, miss, did I disturb you?"

Ai Shutong: "It's okay, I'm not sleepy yet, what's wrong with you?"

Xia Yu: "Madam and Master are not easy to deal with. You can tell from the fact that Madam has been chasing me for such a long time. I'm afraid they will recognize us and cause big trouble."

After a pause, Xia Yu said worriedly: "Maybe my wife is still chasing me now!"

Ai Shutong had actually thought about this problem, but she wanted to escape from Shanghai so much that she involuntarily ignored the danger of Mr. Jin and Li Yanran.

To be honest, Ai Shutong is definitely not afraid of them openly, but Mr. Jin and Li Yanran are not upright people.

Now that the regime in Beijing has changed, the situation is unstable, causing social unrest, with good and bad people mixed together, and hiring killers to kill people is a common occurrence.

If a few people didn't die every day, it would seem abnormal.

"Then let's be careful. Didn't I teach you how to put on makeup? Remember to put on makeup before going out every day. It's best to make it more exaggerated. It would be even better if even your mother can't recognize you."

Xia Yu: "..."

Miss, I'm talking to you about serious matters, why do I feel like you're not serious enough?

Three or four days later, they finally arrived in Beijing.

As the train was about to arrive at the station, Ai Shutong went to the bathroom and put on a mature and slightly charming makeup, making her look older than her actual age.

She looked in the mirror and felt something was missing, so she took out a black gauze hat and put it on her head. After she was done, a mature and fashionable girl appeared in the mirror.

Shen Jiaxing looked at the girl sitting opposite him and said politely, "Hello, ma'am, there's someone here, please sit somewhere else."

Ai Shutong adjusted her hat and said arrogantly, "I'm sitting here, what can you do to me?"

Shen Jiaxing was a little surprised when he heard the voice.

He kept looking at the woman opposite him, but she said angrily, "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beautiful woman?"
