Shen Ru’s brow furrowed even deeper. “Do you think she’ll listen if we don’t get straight to the point? Look at her, just a moment ago, she was throwing a tantrum and cursing. It’s fortunate that you and I were here. If Grandpa or Dad had seen that, it wouldn’t have been resolved with just a scolding!”
Shen Yan, with a face full of grievance, sought refuge in Yang Lan’s embrace. Besides her resentment towards Shen Wan, there was also a hint of resentment towards Shen Ru.
Others might not understand her or insult her, but Shen Ru was different—she was her own sister!
Shouldn’t they stand together and present a united front against outsiders?
“Excuses!” Shen Yan held back the bitter surge in her chest, her lips trembling. “If you want to help Shen Wan, just say so, no need to pretend it’s for my own good. I find it annoying that you’re causing trouble for me!”
Shen Ru’s long and narrow eyes squinted slightly, and a fleeting sternness flashed through her eyes. Her voice turned chilling. “It seems you still haven’t figured out why I’m angry.”
“It’s not the first time.” Shen Yan gritted her teeth, holding back tears. “Every time I target Shen Wan, you jump in to defend her, just like now. What’s so great about that illegitimate child? Are you that fond of her?”
Shen Ru stared at her as if she were a fool, her eyes filled with disappointment and disgust, her voice chilling.
“I’m not defending her; I’m covering up for your shortcomings, do you understand?!”
Shen Yan stood frozen in place.
“Think about it. Apart from mouthing off and saying nasty, unhelpful things, does your so-called ‘targeting’ serve any other purpose? Shen Wan doesn’t even raise an eyebrow. Do you think you can really hurt her? It would be more commendable if you went up and attacked her directly, but do you have the courage?”
Shen Yan was momentarily stunned. “I…”
“You don’t,” Shen Ru answered for her. “You bark like a mad dog, sounding scary, but you have no bite. Once, twice, maybe you can intimidate someone, but after the third or fourth time, they’ll see through your bluff. And then, not only will they no longer be afraid, but they’ll also mock you from the bottom of their hearts—’This dog is all bark and no bite!”‘
Shen Yan felt like she had been struck by lightning.
So, she was the dog, and Shen Wan was the one laughing at the “dog”?
“No… what right? What right does she have…” Shen Yan shook her head blankly, unable to accept it.
“She has every right since she’s also Dad’s daughter and shares the Shen surname!” Apart from not having the same mother, she wasn’t lacking anything compared to them. novelbuddy .com
Yang Lan’s pupils contracted. These were all facts, but hearing them from her eldest daughter’s mouth still sent a sharp, piercing pain through her heart.
Shen Ru sighed softly, her expression relaxing slightly. “Mom, Ah Yan, you need to wake up. Shen Wan’s presence is an undeniable fact. No matter how much you try to avoid it, you can’t change the current situation. Since that’s the case, why not try to accept it?”
“Are you suggesting that I should acknowledge her?! That’s absolutely impossible!” Yang Lan exclaimed in anguish, tears welling up in her eyes.
“Of course not,” Shen Ru replied coldly, a touch of desolation and severity in her gaze.
Yang Lan frowned. “So, what do you mean then?”
“Acknowledging the reality is the first step to changing it. I’m not angry because Ah Yan is targeting Shen Wan; I’m angry because she’s using the most wrongheaded and foolish methods. In the future, don’t just seek satisfaction through words; use your brain and think about how to make every move count.”
After Shen Ru finished speaking, she elegantly got up, took her shoulder bag, and addressed the two of them, “I’ll be heading to work now.”
It wasn’t until she had left the dining room that Yang Lan and Shen Yan began to grasp the situation. They exchanged a look, appearing to grasp some part of it while still feeling uncertain about the entire situation..
