A lawless and wasteful thing!

Shen Zhuang held his forehead with his hand. "How grown up are you? Why are you still saying such childish things? What's going on between you and Jiaming isn't just between you two. The Shen family and the Fu family are also involved. What will happen to Sui'er if you get divorced?"

Speaking of her daughter, Shen Jiao's eyes were filled with determination. "Suier is my daughter, so naturally she has to follow me!"

Shen Zhuang tapped his fingertips lightly on the rosewood tea table. "That's even more ridiculous. What kind of family do you think the Fu family is? Not to mention the old man in the Fu family, his wife is also a powerful one. Will they agree to let you take Sui'er away?"

Shen Jiao was silent for a moment, then looked up at the old man. "No matter how powerful they are, they are not as powerful as you. Dad, please help me snatch Suir away."

"..." The old man glared at the unfilial daughter angrily, "Suier's surname is Fu. In terms of relationship, I, your grandfather, am not as good as your grandfather. If I want to snatch her back from you, what will people outside say about me?"

Shen Jiao's eyes turned, "If you're willing, I'll let Sui'er change his last name to Shen tomorrow. Besides, are you still afraid of what others will say? If anyone talks about it, I'll throw him into Nanshui Bay to feed the fish. Let's see who dares to say anything more."

The old man almost raised his cane to hit the man, "You bastard!"

Shen Jiao was just speaking in anger. Seeing the old man's anger, she immediately pretended to be weak. "Dad! Sui'er is my lifeblood. Please help me! There's not a single good person in the Fu family. I can't leave her in the Fu family. I've never asked you for anything in my life. Can I ask you for this one time, Dad?"

The old man pinched his nose bridge and said, "Nonsense! Of all the children in the family, you're the only one who asks for the most. From childhood to adulthood, what haven't you asked for?"

Shen Jiao was exposed and looked embarrassed, "Dad!"

The old man sighed softly, "Little boy, tell me honestly, why do you insist on divorcing Jiaming? You begged for this marriage by threatening death, and now you're saying no! Daddy still says the same thing, Suer is still young, and you're already a mother, you can't be so willful."

Shen Jiao was stunned and her expression was a little stiff.

The old man's mind was as clear as a mirror, "Is Jiaming seeing someone else outside?"

Shen Jiao's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't answer.

The old man was an experienced person and could see things clearly. He leaned on his cane and said, "This is not a big deal. Dad will come out and deal with it for you. Even if Fu Jiaming is ignorant, there are still two old people above him. They will not refuse to give him this little face."

Seeing that Shen Jiao still didn't speak, Shen Zhuang advised earnestly, "Listen to Dad and go back and have a good talk."

"Talk? Talk about what?" Shen Jiao suddenly got angry and said in a tough tone, "Dad, I'm telling you, there's no point in talking about this. Fu Jiaming and I must get a divorce! No one can persuade us!"

The old man didn't expect her to be so stubborn. He couldn't help but get angry. He shook the ground with his dragon-headed cane and said, "Say it to me again!"

Shen Zhi had been guarding outside the garden. When he heard the noise inside, he was so scared that he immediately went into the garden and grabbed Shen Jiao, "Miss Yao, please speak properly."

Shen Jiao pushed Shen Zhi away, her eyes bloodshot. "How can I explain this nicely? Dad, you don't understand me at all? So you were so nonchalant when you heard Fu Jiaming was looking for a woman outside! Yes, it really wasn't a big deal in your eyes, so you adopted your lover's granddaughter!"

"Miss Yao!" Shen Zhi's face changed drastically, and he scolded loudly without caring about etiquette.

The old man's face was extremely gloomy, and he looked at Shen Jiao in disbelief.

Shen Jiao was also very angry at this time. She was wronged in her husband's family and her parents did not help her. Even her precious daughter was bullied by an outsider. All these things made her feel suffocated.

"Dad, Fu Jiaming is rich and powerful, but what about me? Don't I have any money or power? Since I was a child, I have seen how my mother wasted her time in Shen Garden. Am I wrong for not wanting to live a life like hers?" As soon as these words came out, Shen Jiao knew that she was in trouble. Her expression changed slightly, but it was too late to retract it.

The old man was so angry that he closed his eyes and fell headfirst into the chair.

"dad……"

Shen Jiao was so frightened that she rushed forward to help him, but was pushed away by Shen Zhuang, "Get out! Get out!"

*

The conversation ended unpleasantly, and Shen Jiao looked extremely pale when she left Qinyuan.

"Miss Yao." Seeing that she was distracted, Shen Zhi specially sent her out of the corridor bridge.

Shen Jiao forced herself to cheer up and squeezed out a smile, "Uncle Shen, Daddy is going to trouble you."

Shen Zhi had watched Shen Jiao grow up, and he knew that she was just spoiled but kind-hearted, so he breathed a sigh of relief. "Miss Yao, the old man is angry right now. He'll be fine after a couple of days when he calms down. Can you come back and see me then?"

Shen Jiao understood Shen Zhi's good intentions and nodded. "Don't worry, Uncle Shen. I know what's going on. Sui'er should be awake by now. I'll go check on her."

Shen Zhi nodded. Shen Jiao turned around and just as she was about to step up, he suddenly remembered something and called her again, "Miss Yao."

Shen Jiao paused, turned around and looked at Shen Zhi, "Uncle Shen, is there anything else?"

Shen Zhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Miss Yao, Miss Jiang's grandmother is not the old man's lover."

Shen Jiao was slightly stunned. She had never expected that Shen Zhi would actually say this to her. She was so shocked that she had no time to react.

Shen Zhi said solemnly, "She is the benefactor of the old man and the Shen family. The old man still remembers her kindness, of course, he has his reasons. There are some things you can't say even if you are angry. They are the thorns in the old man's heart."

After saying that, Shen Zhi nodded slightly and turned to go into Qin Garden, leaving Shen Jiao alone to savor the moment.
