Chapter 1021: Chapter 1021: Compromise
To collaborate with him and D Jewelry.
Both mutual, meeting each other too late.
Every word from Shen Qingqing seemed to stab at Shen Yunfei’s heart, pricking him with pain.
"Shen Qingqing, do you take me for a fool, or are you the one playing the fool?" Shen Yunfei stepped forward, firmly gripping Shen Qingqing’s shoulders. Her shoulders were thin and small, arousing his desire to protect this sister—whether she was once a cousin or now a real sister. Shen Yunfei wished to give Shen Qingqing the best in the world.
Shen Yunfei’s gaze was filled with pain, staring intently at Shen Qingqing.
Shen Qingqing still looked pitiful. She choked and said, "Brother, how could I think of you as a fool?"
"Hah."
Shen Yunfei chuckled coldly, let go, and stepped back gradually. Seeing her pitiful appearance made his heart turn cold bit by bit. He said, "You are not doing this for me; you’re doing it for yourself."
"No, I’m not doing it for myself." Shen Qingqing shook her head in denial.
Shen Yunfei continued, "You want revenge on Tang Yue; you want more power in D Jewelry; for the status of the Fan Family, which is currently at its peak. You intend to use the Fan Family, use D Jewelry, to suppress Tang Yue."
"Shen Qingqing, now the Shen Family only has the three of us. I took over the few companies Dad left behind. Compared to the past Lian Family, it’s like a worm shaking a tree." Shen Yunfei took a deep breath. Shen Jing once had assets worth over hundreds of millions, but those were all shady businesses.
Shen Yunfei didn’t want to do those businesses. What’s more, domestically, his path was completely cut off. Only the little bit of companies that went legit could operate. Even if Shen Yunfei had great talent, with no previous learning, he barely managed to keep two companies running.
For ordinary people, Shen Yunfei is considered wealthy now, but compared to the former Lian Family, it’s truly too poor.
Even the business that Shen Qingqing established in F Country was a small achievement.
"From childhood, you’re used to luxury. How could you endure such disparity, so you climbed to Fan Ming?" Shen Yunfei’s eyes reddened as he stared at Shen Qingqing, not giving her a chance to speak. He said, "Fan Ming is already forty, more than ten years older than you, and his hair is balding. Your standards have always been high. If it weren’t for Fan Ming’s power, how could you be with him?"
"Back then, when you separated from Xie Ziyue, I told you that I would find you another match, whether before or after returning home. I’ve always told you that I will strive to make the Shen Family stronger, to be your support. Why can’t you just believe?"
Shen Yunfei looked at Shen Qingqing with a heart full of grief. This was his blood-related sister. In this world, only Shen Qingqing and Sun Rou were his blood sisters. After going through his phase of rebellion, how could Shen Yunfei bear to see Shen Qingqing go astray?
Shen Qingqing bit her lip and looked up, meeting the pained gaze of Shen Yunfei. She knew very well that Shen Yunfei would not believe her anymore. She wiped her tears away, restrained her pitiable expression, and calmly said, "Brother, if that’s what you think, then let it be so. I’m now pregnant, and you wouldn’t want your own nephew to grow up without a father, would you?"
Shen Qingqing’s hand clenched tightly on the table.
"Get rid of it." Shen Yunfei’s gaze fell on her flat belly. He said, "You’re still young, there will be more children in the future. Get rid of it, and we’ll return to F Country. I’ll find you a good man, and you’ll have a happy marriage and life ahead."
"No."
Shen Qingqing protected her belly, saying, "I must give birth to this child. Brother, if you truly see me as your own sister, you should help me."
Shen Qingqing defiantly looked at Shen Yunfei.
...
"Lian Qingqing, no, she’s now Shen Qingqing. She has married Mr. Fan from D Jewelry, and sent an invitation." Wu Xin handed over the invitation.
"Fan Ming got divorced?"
Tang Yue was somewhat surprised looking at the invitation.
"Fan Ming found out Shen Qingqing was pregnant, and the ultrasound showed it was a son. Fan Ming quickly divorced and couldn’t wait to marry Shen Qingqing." Wu Xin explained. At the same time, Wu Xin detailed Shen Yunfei’s efforts in the matter.
Tang Yue remained silent, looking at the rapidly retreating scenery outside the window, without saying much.
The screeching sound of braking rang out.
Wu Xin immediately glanced at Tang Yue beside him. Seeing she was safe, he then looked outside the window. Under the night, in front of the car stood a woman dressed in black and white attire, stretching her arms to block the vehicle. Wu Xin rolled down the car window and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Wu Xin didn’t get out of the car but instead warily looked around. Accompanying Tang Yue just returned from the factory, the journey had been smooth. Who knew what the person suddenly blocking the car was up to?
"Please, save my mom." A young girl’s face appeared nearby. The girl pleaded looking at Wu Xin, with a face full of panic, "My mom had an accident. Could you please kindly take my mom to the hospital?"
"Little girl, what happened to your mom?" Tang Yue asked, while also observing the girl. She looked only fifteen or sixteen, with an innocent face. In this late autumn night, with the cold wind, the girl was only in home clothes, her little face turning purple from the cold.
"My mom, my mom tried to commit suicide. The home’s phone was smashed by my mom, and I couldn’t find anyone." The girl cried with fear, tears streaming down her face.
Wu Xin scolded, "What in the world can’t be overcome? Having a daughter as old as you, and still wanting to commit suicide?"
Wu Xin cautiously watched the girl.
Tang Yue asked, "Where do you live?"
Tang Yue looked around. It was dark, but she had passed this road many times. If she remembered correctly, this should be a village, though quite affluent, with standalone houses, far from the city’s bustle, yet close to it.
"It’s the third house from here. We can’t find anyone nearby, and you’re the first car I flagged down." The girl cried, almost kneeling as she said, "I beg you, if my mom isn’t sent to the hospital soon, she will die."
"Let’s go have a look." Tang Yue wasn’t a saint, but looking at the girl, she didn’t appear to be lying. If what the girl said was true, they might save a life.
"Get in the car."
Wu Xin instructed.
The girl eagerly replied, "I’ll lead the way from the front."
She stumbled as she ran, looking back to guide Wu Xin.
Wu Xin drove on, all the while remaining cautious about the girl.
When they got out of the car, Wu Xin suggested, "Maybe I should go check first?"
