Chapter 240 Shen Mianzhi VS Shen E
Chapter 240 Shen Mianzhi VS Shen E
The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds before Shen E suddenly erupted, crying at the top of her lungs, "Dad, it's not that I have to make a scene, it's really that Lan Lan is being forced to death by Lao Wu. Lao Wu must give me an explanation today, otherwise the Xiao family and I will never let this go."
As he said that, he pulled Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi stood up, his expression solemn. "Dad, I only have one daughter, Lan Lan. She has been treated like a precious pearl since she was little. Even if she did something wrong, she shouldn't be put on a plane by her own uncle, right?"
"That's right." Shen Yuan agreed. "Let the children resolve their own quarrels. Old Five directly dispatched the secret guards to surround the school and injured the teacher. Isn't this a bit of an exaggeration? How will people outside view our Shen family?"
Shen Qian tactically served the tea without expressing any opinion.
Shen Zhuang did not comment, turned to look at the third room, "Old Five, you say."
Shen Rang was also a tough guy. He straightened his bloody back and said loudly, "Dad, I'm not wrong! I'm going to make this clear today. I only have one daughter, Zhizhi. If anyone dares to bully my daughter again, I will massacre his entire family!"
"You!" Xiao Qi widened his eyes. He didn't expect the usually cheerful Shen Rang to be so arrogant. They had just said that the Xiao family would not let it go, and he directly massacred the entire clan.
"Bang!" Shen E couldn't stand such anger. She slammed the table and pointed at Shen Rang and cursed, "What qualifications do you have to say such things? If you hadn't been blind, Dad would have almost lost his life! Are you worthy of us?"
Shen Rang clenched his fists. This was the only thing in his life that he would ever feel guilty towards his father for.
Shen Mianzhi couldn't bear to let Shen Rang endure all this alone, so she secretly took his hand.
The warmth in the palm of his hand spread to his heart, Shen Rang's eyes became moist, and he held it back tightly.
He was about to speak when Shen Jiao stepped forward and said, "It's an old story. Dad didn't even mention it. Why are you always complaining about it?"
Shen E raised her chin, "What do you want?"
Shen Jiao crossed her arms and said, "I am the daughter of the Shen family, so naturally I have my own business. Shen Rang is my brother, and Zhizhi is my niece. Do you think I have anything to do here?"
Shen Qian put down the teacup calmly, "Ah Jiao, we are a family."
Shen Jiao couldn't stand Shen Qian's sanctimonious attitude and deliberately provoked him, "What? Has the mess in South Bay been resolved? Or are you going to be the chairman of the council tomorrow? When have we not been tolerant of so many people from your second branch? Why is it that you call Fifth Brother's sending a few people to school an unforgivable crime?"
Shen Qian was so angry that his face turned blue.
It has to be Queen Jiao. Jiang Huashan silently gave Shen Jiao a thumbs up.
Shen Jiao turned to look at Shen Zhuang, "Dad, is there still any controversy about this? Xiao Lanlan deliberately framed Zhizhi. If Zhizhi is found mentally ill, her life will be ruined. As a parent, who can tolerate their child being wronged like this?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Shen E lost control of her emotions and pointed at Shen Mianzhi, "It's obvious that she has a problem with her brain! Lanlan just accidentally revealed her secret." Then she looked at Shen Zhuang, "Dad, Zhizhi is sick, but Lao Wu didn't mention it. Who knows what he's thinking? They..."
"I'm not sick!" Shen Mianzhi looked at Shen Zhuang with a firm expression, "Grandpa, it was my aunt who wronged me."
Shen E was prepared. She turned around, took out two stacks of documents from her handbag, and threw them at Shen Mianzhi, "What is this? You still dare to quibble?"
Shen Rang was furious and was about to fight back when Shen Mianzhi stepped forward and said, "Auntie, have you ever heard that there is only a fine line between genius and madness?"
"Huh?" Shen E laughed out of anger and pointed at her nose. "So you're a genius?"
Shen Mianzhi turned to look at Shen Zhuang, "Grandpa, I've felt that I'm different from others since I was very young. I..."
Jiang Huashan raised her eyes and looked at Shen Mianzhi's profile.
Do you want to tell them about your experience? No, no one can empathize with you, because there are no two leaves in the world that are alike.
Shen Mianzhi paused, swallowing the lump in her throat. "I've had a photographic memory since I was a child. Whether it's numbers, words, or people I've met, as long as I've seen them once, I can still remember them even ten years later. It's because there are so many stored images in my brain that I wonder if I have a mental problem. That's why I asked Dad to keep it a secret for the time being."
"That's nonsense." Shen E wouldn't allow Shen Mianzhi to defend herself, so she said sharply, "You even dare to fool the old man now. It seems you are a habitual liar."
Shen Mianzhi looked directly at Shen E, "Eight years ago, my aunt came to Shen Garden to celebrate the New Year. That day, you were wearing a platinum silk fur coat, a moonlight pearl on your head, and plum blossoms painted on your nails. You pushed me to the ground, pointed at my nose and said, 'Don't think that anyone in this family will stand up for you. You'd better behave yourself, otherwise even your father will be kicked out of Shen Garden.'"
Shen E's expression changed slightly.
I said so much just to tell what happened back then.
Shen Mianzhi's face was calm as she described how everyone was dressed back then, even the outfits of dozens of aunts in Shen Garden.
Jiang Huashan looked at her profile and thought to himself that it was really different.
She said this just to prove the authenticity of her revelations about Shen E. She even remembered everyone's lipstick shades, so how could she have misremembered a threatening word?
Shen Rang looked at Shen Mianzhi's thin back, and the forty-year-old man's eyes were red and wet.
He couldn't imagine how his daughter had gotten through the past eight years. He had always lamented her cowardice and her quiet nature, and he had only tried to accept and tolerate her, never once thinking of tracing her roots.
Shen Jiao was furious after hearing this. "Are you crazy? How could you say such things to a child?"
She originally thought that Shen E was just mean, but she didn't expect her to be so vicious.
Everyone's eyes became strange, especially the younger generation.
Shen E gritted her teeth and explained, "She lied. I did accidentally leak the news about Lao Wu's family, but that was all. I never threatened her, and neither did Lan Lan."
A hint of darkness flashed across Shen Mianzhi's harmless deer eyes. She fought back with ease, "Three years ago, if my aunt and cousin hadn't threatened me, how could I have lied in front of everyone? I clearly saw Sister Lanlan stripping off her clothes, yet I still lied with my eyes open."
"Shut up!" The incident three years ago was Shen E's biggest taboo. She was so angry that she spoke without thinking, "What happened that day has nothing to do with Lan Lan and me. You lied because you were afraid of the consequences..."
Xiao Qi's expression changed slightly, and he pulled her back, "That's enough."
Shen Qian put down the teacup with a sullen face.
Everyone's eyes fell on Shen E's crazy face.
Shen E reacted immediately and grabbed Shen Zhuang's arm, "Dad, listen to my explanation, she lied..."
Shen Zhuang calmly pulled Shen E's hand away.
It doesn’t matter whether Shen Mianzhi lied or not; what matters is that her logic is self-consistent.
There are no loopholes, it is well-founded and can be a valid evidence presented in court.
