The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 152: Her Elder Brother Sold Her To Her Husband?
Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Her Elder Brother Sold Her To Her Husband?
Well, it was not Bai Xifeng’s fault but his fault. He was the one who proudly announced to others about Bai Xifeng. No wonder people would come and knock on his door asking for Bai Xifeng. However, Bai Xifeng already stated to him that she did not want to meet others who seek for her.
"I am sorry, Sir Su. Sir Long told me that he did not wish to meet anyone." Master Shen told Su Jinhai what Bai Xifeng told him.
Su Jinhai’s eyes flickered. It had been so long that someone rejected his request. He did not believe Master Shen as he believed that Master Shen made things difficult for him because he had refused to see his daughter-in-law once.
"Master Shen, please allow me to see him. I think he would be happy to see me too." Su Jinhai said it again.
"Sir Su, what my father said is the truth. Sir Long refused to meet anyone. He seemed to be busy with something else right now." Shen Shoushan just came and entered the main hall.
Su Jinhai’s expression changed. He did not expect that Master Shen and his son would refuse him twice.
"I see. I hope he is not too busy when I come again." Su Jinhai stood up and wanted to leave.
"Have a safe trip, Sir Su." Master Shen bowed to Su Jinhai.
Shen Shoushan looked at Su Jinhai’s back. He felt a lot better seeing Su Jinhai return without seeing Bai Xifeng. Now, Su Jinhai knew how it felt to be refused.
"There will be a lot of people who want to see Bai Xifeng." Master Shen said.
"Yes." Shen Shoushan nodded.
Then a servant came and reported something. Master Shen and Shen Shoushan looked at each other and nodded. They stormed out to go to the prison where Mo Shuang had been imprisoned.
Madam Shen went to the prison to see Mo Shuang. Mo Shuang was her niece, the daughter of her elder brother. She refused to believe that Mo Shuang had a bad intention when she first came to her house.
Mo Shuang had her hands tied up to the wall and looked up when she heard someone was there. Her bloodless face with messed hair made her appearance look monstrous.
"Shuang-er..." Madam Shen called Mo Shuang.
Mo Shuang began to cry when she saw Madam Shen. "Auntie, please help me." She begged Madam Shen.
"Shuang-er, is true that you want to harm Liqiu?" Madam Shen wanted to know the truth right from Mo Shuang’s mouth.
Hearing this, Mo Shuang stopped her act. She glared sharply at Madam Shen.
Madam Shen noticed the look on Mo Shuang’s face. She stepped back.
"What? Are you scared of me, Auntie?" Mo Shuang asked while still glaring at Madam Shen.
"So, it is really true. Shuang-er, why are you doing something like that? What for?" Madam Shen asked. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
She used to see Mo Shuang while Mo Shuang was still a kid. She adored Mo Shuang because she could not give birth to another child after giving birth to Shen Shoushan. In fact, she wanted a daughter. So, when she saw Mo Shuang, she really liked Mo Shuang.
"I want a stable position like you. Am I wrong?" Mo Shuang asked.
"Stable position?" Madam Shen did not understand that.
"Yeah. You manage to sit as the Matriarch Shen. I want to be Matriarch Shen as well. I do not want my father to use me as his pawn to gain the favour of others. Ren Liqiu was an obstacle on my path. So, I want to eliminate her. But some random guy came over and cured her. MY PLAN IS RUINED NOW THANKS TO THAT GUY!" Mo Shuang shouted at the end.
"My Brother, your father would never do something like that." Madam Shen denied that her elder brother would be doing something like that to his own fresh and blood.
Mo Shuang chuckled. Madam Shen could hear that.
"Are you sure about that? Your elder brother had done it to my two elder sisters as well, for your information." Mo Shuang said.
"What?" Madam Shen was shocked. "Impossible, he told me that Shuning and Shuying found the man by themselves."
"Yeah. That is what he told people. He portrayed himself to be a loving father to his daughters. However, he was selling his daughters to his buyers." Mo Shuang stated.
Madam Shen was shaking. She could not believe what her niece told her about her father.
"Oh, he probably sold you to Uncle too." Mo Shuang added.
"No! Impossible!" Madam Shen shouted while she stepped back.
She almost fell down when she felt someone holding her back. When she turned around, she saw her husband.
"You can ask your husband whether your brother sold you to him or not?" Mo Shuang asked.
Shen Shoushan was angry when Mo Shuang talked to his mother like that. He stepped forward and gave a slap right now Mo Shuang’s face. It was a very powerful slap.
Two of Mo Shuang’s teeth were knocked out. She spitted out the teeth out of her mouth. She did not expect for Shen Shoushan to lay his hand on her just like this.
Master Shen still held his wife.
"Do you want to know the truth?" Master Shen asked.
Madam Shen’s body stiffened. She was kind of afraid to know the truth. But she still wanted to know the truth about their marriage.
"Your elder brother did sell you to me." Master Shen stated.
Madam Shen’s body became weak. Master Shen kept holding her wife from falling.
Master Shen continued again. "However, it is because I request your hand for marriage myself. I fell in love with you at first sight."
Madam Shen was surprised again. "Husband..."
"I wait until you already fell in love with me too. I swore if you did not love me after that, I would step down and distance myself from you. Only then, do we get married. Your elder brother saw this as an opportunity. He sold you to me. He thought he could control me through you. But he failed to do so." Master Shen did tell his wife the truth.
"That is why you never allow me to visit my elder brother?" Madam Shen asked.
She noticed her husband did not allow her to go and visit Mo Manor. He could tell her that it was dangerous for a woman like her to travel alone. He also always told her that he was busy when she invited him to go together.
"Hmm..." Master Shen nodded.
Madam Shen was touched. She did not know the truth. However, when she knew the truth, she was relieved.
Master Shen turned to Mo Shuang. His face was cold as he faced an enemy.
"Are you satisfied with my answer?" Master Shen asked Mo Shuang. "You know what? I never liked you when the first time you came here. I know you are a disaster. But because you are from my wife’s family, I thought she might be happy with your company since my daughter in law fell into a coma. My daughter in law is the one who always accompanies my wife when my son and I are busy with work. I never thought you came with an insidious plan."
Mo Shuang gritted her teeth.
Master Shen continued. "Even if my daughter-in-law could not be saved, I will not be letting you into my household."
"Why???? I am more powerful than that bitch." Mo Shuang shouted.
Hearing his wife being insulted by Mo Shuang like that, Shen Shoushan slapped Mo Shuang again.
"You better watch your mouth. I will slap you again and again if you called my wife with that name again." Shen Shoushan warned Mo Shuang.
"You!" Mo Shuang glared at Shen Shoushan.
"Lanying, you can go out first. I want to ask something to Mo Shuang. You might not bear to see it." Master Shen said.
Madam Shen felt that her husband was right. She could not bear to see Mo Shuang being tortured. It was best for everyone if she left.
"Hmm... I understand." Madam Shen nodded.
"Mother, you can go and see Liqiu. She will appreciate your presence." Shen Shoushan said.
"Hmm... I will." Madam Shen nodded and walked out.
Master Shen smiled at Mo Shuang.
"Do you think you will ruin my relationship with my wife?" Master Shen smirked.
