Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

"Are you sure you don't want to think about it? I'm quite familiar with the person in charge of the Astral Auction House."

Shen Ruoyu found this uncle quite annoying. He tilted his head up and said, "Uncle, you've bothered our family of four for so long today. Don't you feel like you're superfluous?"

Shen Yunxi: "!!!"

Situ Jingxuan: "!!!"

I saved you guys a lot of money today!

"Yu Bao, you can't be so rude!" Shen Yunxi said seriously, "You should speak more tactfully in the future. Being so direct will hurt people."

"I was just afraid Uncle wouldn't understand!" Shen Ruoyu said, looking aggrieved.

Shen Yunxi and the others ignored Situ Jingxuan and headed towards the Shen family's residence, with Situ Jingxuan following behind them.

This scene was witnessed by Shen Wanqing, who was sitting in the carriage. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said, "This bitch has two children and she is still seducing Brother Jingxuan."

Elder Songhe sat beside Shen Wanqing, his eyelids slightly open, his cold gaze sweeping over Shen Yunxi's family not far away. A disdainful sneer curled at the corner of his mouth as he slowly said, "She won't be able to cause trouble for long. The Shen family will soon be expelled from the ranks of the four great families."

After a pause, Elder Songhe's tone was as cold as ice, "As long as the Shen family falls, that bitch, her two little bastards, and that old bastard Shen Shenxing, none of them will live!"

He turned to look at Shen Wanqing, a sinister glint flashing across his aged face. "Your task now is to focus on cultivation and strive to win first place in the Star-Picking Pavilion's exam!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Wanqing smiled happily, hugged Elder Songhe's arm, and said coquettishly, "Master still loves me the most. I will definitely work hard to cultivate and live up to Master's expectations."

However, at this moment, she was thinking that as long as the Shen family fell and Shen Shenxing died, she would definitely bring Shen Yunxi and her two children to her. She wanted Shen Yunxi to watch helplessly as she tortured her children, to see her own flesh and blood die before her eyes, and then to sell her to a brothel, making her wish she were dead!

Elder Songhe gently stroked Shen Wanqing's hand, a strange light flashing in his eyes, and said with an ambiguous smile, "Of course, your master loves you the most. After all, you are a very important person to your master!"

Shen Wanqing was engrossed in her revenge fantasies, completely unaware of the underlying unease in Elder Songhe's tone. She simply assumed he was eager to acquire talent. In her view, Elder Songhe was advanced in years and had no children, while she possessed such outstanding cultivation talent that she naturally caught his eye and was cherished by him like a granddaughter.

Elder Songhe, her master, was much kinder to her than her grandfather.

Shen Wanqing couldn't help but scoff at Shen Shenxing.

That evening, after settling Shen Ruoyu and Shen Ruoning in, Shen Yunxi returned to her room.

She shed her fussy dresses and changed into a simple and neat dark men's suit, with a matching belt around her waist that accentuated her slender figure.

Her long, jet-black hair was tied up high and secured with a white jade hairpin, with a few stray strands falling on either side of her face, making her look even more beautiful and handsome.

She opened a folding fan painted with landscapes, gently waving it, her every gesture exuding elegance and charm.

Di Xuanshang's gaze was fixed on Shen Yunxi, as if time had stood still.

He had never seen her like this before—her spirited and dashing, with a touch of untamed freedom, completely different from her usual gentle and quiet demeanor, yet equally captivating. He suddenly didn't want others to see this side of her. Thinking this, he took out an exquisitely crafted silver mask from his spatial ring and gently placed it on Shen Yunxi, covering most of her face except for her clear, bright eyes.
