Chapter 799: Chapter 799: What About Brother Shengxiao’s Fiancee?
Shen Siyuan’s face instantly turned deathly pale, her voice trembling, “Mrs. Lin?”
What does she mean?
Lin Zhiya said, “I usually prefer quietness, and my hobbies are old-fashioned—tending to flowers, drinking tea. You’re young; you should go out more often with girls your age and shop around. There’s no need to waste your time on me; you don’t have to e over anymore.”
Lin Zhiya, a woman born into a military family, even when dismissing someone, did so with grace and courtesy, never leaving them feeling degraded.
But her overly gentle words didn’t change the core message.
It simply meant that Shen Siyuan was no longer wele at the old residence.
...
Shen Siyuan also came from a distinguished family and had basic self-control. Even though she was desperate enough to jump up in anger, she clenched her fingernails and held back. She stood up with Lin Zhiya, trying her best to maintain her posure, but her ashen face betrayed her embarrassment, “I understand, Mrs. Lin.”
She took a deep breath and, unwilling to give up, she asked, “I just want to ask one last question, Mrs. Lin, can you help me clear my confusion?”
Lin Zhiya neither agreed nor disagreed.
Shen Siyuan went on regardless, “I want to know, what’s so good about Rong Yan? Why is it that everyone around me is helping her? What charm does she have?”
She couldn’t see any other virtues in that woman besides her beauty.
But Shengxiao was one thing, why would Cui Xiaosi, Mrs. Lin, all stand on that woman’s side and embarrass her?
Lin Zhiya didn’t want to answer her question at first, but seeing how deeply troubled she seemed, she sighed and still responded, “There is no why. If I must give a reason, there’s only one—Shengxiao likes her.”
Shengxiao likes her!
Shen Siyuan felt as if she had been slapped in the face. Her already pale plexion shattered, and she laughed desolately, clenching her hand tightly, making one feel pity for her, “So that’s it…”
In the end, it was because Shengxiao liked that woman, and doted on her.
Yet this simple reason was like a knife slashing into her flesh, cutting her a thousand times over, her heart felt like it was about to split apart. With wet eyes and trembling lips, she asked Lin Zhiya, “What about the fiancee that Shengxiao previously got engaged to? Mrs. Lin, you haven’t forgotten, have you?”
If it were her, with the support of the Shen Family, she could help Shengxiao, and even if the engagement was broken off, they would not have to fear anything. But if Shengxiao insists on being with that woman, what about Li Group?
She couldn’t believe that Shengxiao and Mrs. Lin wouldn’t care!
Lin Zhiya frowned slightly, her gaze sharp, “Who told you these things?”
She didn’t want to acknowledge this engagement at all, so she had not made it public. Where did Shen Siyuan hear about it?
Shen Siyuan had never seen such a sharp side to her and shrank back, “I heard my brother mention it. I also know that Sir Lin had approached Rong Yan; he must have mentioned it to her too.”
That was the point that infuriated her the most.
Rong Yan, knowing full well that she could cause trouble for Shengxiao, still had the audacity not to leave.
This selfish, vain, thick-skinned, and ruthless woman, had no sense of shame at all!
When Lin Zhiya heard that her father had also gone to look for Rong Yan, her face grew even darker. When she looked at her again, her eyes were so cold it reached to the bone, “The matter of the betrothal is the Li Family’s business, and it’s not your concern. I will take care of it! Siyuan, I hope you won’t take this matter and spread it around, understood?”
