Chapter 137: Be good, don't make trouble, go back quick
complain to Shen Xiu Jin on the phone, but the other party mercilessly hung up.Hello!Bai Yu walked down the stairs quickly after putting on his clothes at random.As she went downstairs, she called "Z...The car stopped in front of the Jian family's house.
When they arrived at Jian's house, the front of Jian's house was already filled with luxury cars parked along the roadside.
At this moment, Jian Tong stood at the wrought iron gate of the Jian family mansion, hesitant to step forward.
"Scared" A man's faint voice came from beside her, calm and unhurried. "If you're scared, we can go back now."
"No!" Almost instantly, she reflexively refused, taking a deep breath and lifting her foot to step across the iron gate.
"Are you just going to walk in like that" the low voice said again.
Jian Tong was a little confused: "What"
His hand reached out, straightening her back and tilting her chin up, "Jian Tong, if you're scared, we might as well not go in at all.
But you walked into this place today, it's not just about you as an individual.
Remember, right now, you are my girlfriend, Shen Xiujin's.
Jian Tong had seen this man speak coldly and harshly, witnessed his demeanor colder than ice, but rarely had she seen him speak with such gravity and solemnity:
"Stand up straight, lift your head. This is the Jian family home, where you've lived for twenty years. You shouldn't be afraid, you shouldn't be timid, you shouldn't just run away like this."
He said, "Jian Tong, in this house, there are not only Jian Zhen Dong and his wife, and Jian Mo Bai. It once housed Old Master Jian as well!"
"Do you not have the courage to walk into this house, straight and tall, for Old Master Jian to see Do you want him to watch you, cowering in the shadows within these walls, too afraid to even face anyone, bowing and scraping"
These questions pierced Jian Tong's ears and went straight into her heart... She wanted to retort, she wanted to say... Shen Xiujin, wouldn't I be where I am today without you Wouldn't everything I have achieved be what you envisioned Now you come with crocodile tears and feigned compassion
But she wouldn’t open her mouth… Her grandfather, he had never taught her to shirk or evade. Even though there was an unbearable resentment in her heart, even though she feared, hated the person beside her with all her being, but at this moment, in this place she had lived for over twenty years, filled with her grandfather’s expectations, she—Jian Tong… shouldn’t be timid and afraid! …At least, not here! In a place where her grandfather had lived his whole life!
Her chest heaved violently, though she said nothing, her heart was a storm within! She closed her eyes again and took deep breaths. Suddenly! She opened them!
At this moment, her aura completely changed!
With the determination of a martyr, she reached out and, in a gesture of courtesy, encircled the man beside her with her arms. Her voice was soft but firm, "Go in."
With her impaired legs, she had always been extra careful when walking. Now, paired with the black fishtail dress and high heels, she walked with even more grace.
The silver, diamond-encrusted high heels were undeniably beautiful, but they tortured her feet mercilessly.
Her flawed limbs, clad in those stunning high heels, stepped one by one into the grand entrance of the Jian family home.
After three years, she stepped into the shop again. She remembered the day three years ago when she stopped at the wrought iron gate, her elder brother on the other side, separated by that very door.
And today, she once again stepped through the gate that had once separated her from the Jian family.
She walked with utmost seriousness and determination. Even though her steps were slow, she walked with unwavering steadiness, placing each foot firmly on the ground.
When they walked in, all eyes were on them.
Shen Xiujin, he was a natural magnet for attention, never lacking in the spotlight.
But people, today's gaze, has rested upon Jian Tong.
She put on some makeup, and she looked more like Jian Tong from three years ago. Many people recognized her.
"That's... Jian Tong"
"How did she get here"
"Shouldn't we ask how she ended up with Mr. Shen"
"Isn't she in jail"
"That was ages ago! She's been out of prison for over half a year, don't you know I heard from Wei Sishan the other day that she's completely changed. She's meek and timid, like a little girl who's never seen the world."
All around, there was a buzz of conversation. All eyes were fixed on Shen Xiujin and Jian Tong.
A pair of eyes, some suspicious and perplexed, others filled with a desire for chaos.
Jian Mo Bai and Jian Zhen Dong, father and son, were originally chatting with guests. At this moment, both of them looked at Jian Tong's figure with grim expressions.
"How did this wretch get here Did you tell her" Jian Zhendong asked fiercely.
"Dad, I haven't seen her again. Besides, she came with Shen Xiujin."
Hearing this, Jian Zendong's heart skipped a beat, "Could this bastard have offended President Shen again Is this a disguised punishment" As he asked this question, Jian Zendong was also thinking... What kind of new-fangled punishment is this
But...the facts are right in front of us, aren't they How else would this beast be together with Mr. Shen unless it had offended him again
"Dad, could it be that something's going on between Xiaotong and Mr. Shen" The words weren't explicitly stated, but the meaning was clear, hinting at a possible romantic relationship between Jian Zhendong and Shen Xiujin.
Jian Zhen Dong was a man of intelligence, and he immediately understood his son's intentions: "How is that possible" He flatly refused without hesitation: "If you were talking three years ago, maybe there would be a possibility, but this woman's appearance now is hardly attractive. She doesn't even resemble an average woman."
Besides, it was General Shen himself who personally sent her in. The last time I saw that wicked girl, her voice was gone and she looked completely different. She must have suffered a lot in that place.
If General Shen didn't give the signal, no one would dare to touch her.
Jian Mo Bai became worried again: "Dad, are we still going to auction the 'Eternal Love Fund' tonight" After all, Jian Tong was present, this... "isn't a good idea."
What's so bad about that Back then, the old man doted on her, spoiling her rotten. That's how she became so brazen, even daring to hire someone to gang rape others.
To put it simply, the old man spoiled her for over ten years, but ruined her life in the end.
She made a huge mistake herself. This "Only Love Fund" is already ours, and as for how to deal with it, it has nothing to do with her anymore.
Across the crowd, Jian Tong looked at the father and son. The man beside her asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go over there"
Jian Tong nodded. "I'll go myself." She had one thing she absolutely had to ask them in person.
Shen Xiujin chuckled and loosened his grip on Jian Tong's hand:
"Alright, go meet them."
On Jian Zhen Dong's side, Jian Mo Bai suddenly became tense: "Dad, Dad, she's walking towards us."
"Calm down one..." Click... Jian Zhen Dong was saying, he suddenly raised his head and his expression kept changing.
Mrs. Jian suddenly rushed over and grasped Jian Tong's wrist tightly: "Little Tong, how did you come here"
She was just greeting the female guests, and when she saw Jian Tong and Shen Xiuqin, she also saw Shen Xiuqin let go of Jian Tong's hand. Jian Tong walked toward Jian Zhendong, so she hurriedly rushed over.
Jian Tong's heart trembled... Why couldn't she be here!
"Child, go back. This banquet is important today, don't make a fuss, be good, okay" pushed her back down into hell.She said, it's okay.It was her greed that led to this. She knew she could only live in hell for the rest of her life, yet she still dreamed of living under the sun.Kean...
