Upon hearing this, Shen Yaorong and his wife abruptly turned to look at the stairs, where Shen Yanchuan strode toward them with a cool and aloof demeanor.

Zhu Ying's face turned pale with anger. "Nephew, we apologize? My daughter-in-law just had surgery and is lying in the hospital. She almost died along with her unborn child. If something really happened to her, who would be responsible?"

Shen Yaorong stood up abruptly. "Yan Chuan, if you have any complaints about me, your uncle, you can come at me. Don't try to kill my wife and my unborn grandson."

Shen Yanchuan coldly swept his gaze over the couple, "I don't need to reveal what kind of people you two are; you know it in your hearts."

Zhu Ying gritted her teeth in anger, "Shen Yanchuan, just say what you want to say, don't make veiled accusations here."

"In short, we will not let this go until you and your husband apologize," Shen Yaorong said angrily.

Grandma Shen slammed her hand on the table. "That's enough."

The hall immediately fell silent. Zhu Ying wiped away her tears and looked at her mother-in-law with a wronged expression. "Mom, you must stand up for our family!"

Grandma Shen said with a stern face, "You keep saying that Chenxi pushed Xiaomeng, but in my opinion, Chenxi was trying to pull her up, but instead she was pulled down the steps by Xiaomeng. This was an accident. You should stop making things difficult for Yan Chuan and his wife."

Shen Yaorong quickly retorted, "Mom, you must be seeing things. I watched the video. Xiaomeng turned around and wanted Su Chenxi to help her up, but Su Chenxi wanted to harm my grandson, so she pushed Xiaomeng down the steps, even at the cost of falling down herself."

"Yes, that's exactly what she wanted, to harm the child in Xiaomeng's belly." Zhu Ying insisted, then turned to Shen Yanchuan, "Yanchuan, how could you marry such a vicious wife? For your own good, I advise you to get a divorce."

Shen Yanchuan responded with a cold laugh, "I chose my own wife, and it's none of the business of outsiders to comment."

“Am I an outsider? I’m your aunt, your elder,” Zhu Ying retorted angrily.

"In my eyes, not every member of the Shen family is qualified to be my elder," Shen Yanchuan said sarcastically.

"You..." Zhu Ying's face flushed with anger as she looked at her mother-in-law, "Mom, say something!"

Grandma Shen snorted, "Yan Chuan is right. You elders have lost your morals first, how can you expect the younger generation to respect you?"

On the third floor, Su Chenxi vaguely heard arguing downstairs. She immediately got out of bed and went out, afraid that Shen Yanchuan would be scolded because of her. She quickly went downstairs.

As soon as she appeared at the staircase in the lobby, Zhu Ying saw her, stood up and shouted, "You, come down here!"

"You brat, get down here!" Shen Yaorong shouted angrily.

Faced with the anger and coldness in Shen Yaorong and his wife's eyes, Su Chenxi froze on the stairs like a frightened kitten. Old Mrs. Shen said gently, "Chenxi, come here! Tell us what happened last night."

Shen Yanchuan stepped upstairs, took Su Chenxi's hand in his own, and led her downstairs.

After standing next to the sofa, Su Chenxi took a deep breath and said to Shen Yaorong and his wife, "Uncle, Aunt, I am also heartbroken by what happened. My sister-in-law and I were going downstairs side by side. When we were five steps away from the ground, my sister-in-law tripped over her skirt. I reached out to grab her hand, but I couldn't hold on. We both fell down."

"You bastard!" With a furious curse, Shen Yaorong threw the teacup he was holding at Su Chenxi's face.

Su Chenxi opened her eyes wide in fright and reached out to protect her head. Just then, someone stood in front of her and blocked the teacup that was about to be thrown at her.

Shen Yanchuan's back was splashed with tea, and the cup fell to the ground and shattered. Su Chenxi opened her eyes and looked at the man who had shielded her from the cup. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt heartache.

Shen Yanchuan frowned, his handsome face darkening as he turned around, shielding Su Chenxi behind him, and glared angrily at Shen Yaorong.

Seeing her son's violent behavior, Old Mrs. Shen slammed her hand on the table and stood up angrily, "Yaorong, what are you doing?"

Shen Yaorong said with a livid face, "She's lying. She clearly pushed my Xiaomeng, but she's pretending to be an innocent victim here. Of course I have to teach her a lesson."

Zhu Ying stepped forward and took her husband's hand. "Mom, Yao Rong was in a bad mood at the end. The doctor said he might have mild bipolar disorder. Please don't blame him."

Grandma Shen took a deep breath and said, "I'm telling you this, no one is allowed to pursue this matter any further. This was an accident. Xiaomeng and Chenxi are both victims. You can comfort them yourselves."

Shen Yaorong's gaze fell on Su Chenxi, a fierce glint in his eyes. Zhu Ying took his arm and said, "Husband, let's go back!"

The maid saw the couple off. Su Chenxi realized what was happening and immediately took Shen Yanchuan's hand, saying, "Your clothes are wet. Let me help you change upstairs."

Shen Yanchuan was led upstairs by her. Although Su Chenxi was terrified just now, she felt even more sorry for him. If he hadn't blocked her way, that teacup might have smashed into her face.

Shen Yanchuan cooperated and was led by her to the walk-in closet in the master bedroom. Su Chenxi reached out to unbutton his clothes, her only thought being to help him change.

She didn't notice a pair of eyes staring intently at her, intensely focused.

As Su Chenxi unbuttoned the fourth button, the man's firm and powerful pectoral muscles were almost exposed beneath his white shirt. Su Chenxi continued unbuttoning until the last button. She lifted the man's shirt, revealing a perfect upper body like that of the sun god Apollo. Su Chenxi's face flushed red.

Sharp collarbones, smooth shoulder and neck lines, full pectoral muscles, and well-defined abdominal muscles, with distinct muscle texture, exuding a powerful and beautiful aura.

Su Chenxi gasped slightly as the man helped her take off her wet shirt. Su Chenxi turned to get a new shirt and said, "Don't catch a cold, put this on quickly!"

She handed it to the man.

However, at this moment, the man cupped her face, pressed his hot, thin lips against hers, and pried open her red lips with his tongue, forcefully conquering her.

The men's shirt that Su Chenxi was holding with both hands unknowingly fell to the ground. She then wrapped her arms around his neck and stood on tiptoe.

The way that man shielded her from the cup just now was so cool.

He was so handsome that she was somewhat attracted to him.

The man breathed heavily in her until she was breathless again, then he released her and whispered against her lips, "Next time you encounter a situation like last night, you can just stand by and watch her die."

Su Chenxi was a little confused and looked up at him, "Do you really believe me?"

Shen Yanchuan fixed his gaze on her. "What do you think?"

Su Chenxi blinked, pondering the question, when the man couldn't resist cupping her face and kissing her again, so Su Chenxi didn't need to think about it anymore.

A man who loves kissing her so much must trust her, right?

The man held her head and kissed her for a while longer. His voice, filled with unfulfilled desire, said, "Stay home, don't wander around. I'm going out."

Su Chenxi nodded obediently, her knee still injured! Where could she possibly run off to?
