Chapter 46 - Family Dispute!
Chapter 46: Family Dispute!
Translator: Lordbluefire
At the Shen Family’s residence.
Although Little Xiang’s post had been hacked, due to an unexpected turn of events, the live stream’s popularity exploded due to Jing Zhen.
The topic #FairFacePeachBlossomEyes, #ReflectedThroughAGreenJadeFan became a popular search on the Internet. When it was clicked, people could see the screenshot of the video taken by Little Xiang’s fan.
Jing Zhen was really good-looking.
The most unique thing about him was his peach blossom eyes. The corners of his eyes were slightly raised and his eyes were dreamy with a faint blush around them. Moreover, his long eyelashes covered his eyes, and the smile on his lips looked a little devilish.
There were no wrinkles on his face, and it was hard to tell his age.
Therefore, a big bunch of people in the comments section called him ‘older brother’. Everyone wanted to know who this male celebrity was.
Through the leads on the Internet, everyone gushed into Little Xiang’s live stream
In the live stream, all the comments on the bullet curtain were asking:
——Where is the fair face guy with peach blossom eyes?
——Asking the same question as above. Why do I only see an old lady and not the handsome guy?
Some people replied to these viewers’ questions, saying that the handsome guy was inside the terrace. The door wasn’t opened yet, and they should just wait quietly. It was only then did everyone notice that this was a streamer who focused on helping people to mediate relationships.
Shen Ruotong cried in the direction of the terrace and repeated, “Aunt, please open the door. How can you be so heartless? Are you just going to watch and ignore things as Grandmother collapses?
“Aunt, Grandmother knows that you’re angry because of the uneven distribution of the family assets, thus wanting to cut off all ties with us. Grandmother knows that she’s wrong now. She’s willing to split the inheritance equally into three portions and give you one of them!
“No matter what, Grandmother had put in great effort into raising you and sending you to university. As a child, can you really cut off ties with your parents?”
As Shen Ruotong shouted this, the people who had just joined the live stream immediately knew what this matter was about.
——Most children are all heartless toward their parents.
——I agree with what the previous person said. If children recognize their mistakes, their parents will definitely forgive them.
——I just became a fan of this cute brother*, but am I going to be disappointed so quickly…
——Ahhhhhh, that handsome guy is clearly naturally good-looking. It’s impossible to create such an exquisite face through cosmetic surgery. How can something like this happen?
——Previous poster, don’t be anxious. What if the tables turn around later in such family disputes?
Of course, since Matriarch Shen went to look for Little Xiang, she must have done ample preparations. She paid for a water army* and right now, the members of the water army started ‘attacking’.
——Stop finding excuses. That daughter doesn’t even dare to come out. She must be feeling guilty!
——I happen to stay near them. This daughter is really heartless toward her mother. Her mother came to look for her a few times, but she refused to acknowledge her! In this day and age, are money and inheritance really so important?
——Your parents’ money belongs to them. Even if they aren’t left behind for you, can you ignore the fact that they have raised you? Moreover, your mother has realized her mistake and is planning to give a share to you now.
——This daughter is really inhuman. Her mother has gone to such lengths, but she still refuses to give in…
These comments caused the passersby who weren’t sure of the situation to join in to scold Shen Qianhui.
More and more people joined the live stream. Some neighbors even heard about this matter and came rushing over to watch the show. It wasn’t long before Little Xiang and Matriarch Shen were surrounded by people.
When the neighbors saw Matriarch Shen’s frail appearance, they couldn’t hold it in and helped to call out.
“Madam Shen, come out!”
“Madam Shen, open the door!”
“If there’s any issue, just talk things out. Don’t leave the elderly out in the scorching sun! She might die!”
With such a big commotion, Jing Zhen was unable to hide things even if he were to use anti-fans as an excuse. When Shen Qianhui heard the noise outside, she opened the door, feeling puzzled.
At the instant the door was opened, the camera aimed straight at her and Jing Zhen.
No matter the time and situation, Shen Qianhui always appeared graceful. She wore a white cheongsam that gave her a refined disposition. However, when the camera was directed at Jing Zhen, he immediately entered his acting mode. He stood upright and tall, even finding the right angle to perfectly present his exceptionally good-looking face to the viewers.
The bullet curtain was instantly covered in screams.
——Ahhhhhh, he’s too handsome!
——My mother asked why I’m licking the screen!
——Can someone get me a high-definition image? I want to use it for my wallpaper!
——Although they are a good-looking pair and are a good match for each other, I can’t help but want to ask, what shows did the cute brother act in?! To think that I missed out on such good looks?
Seeing that the comments were going off the topic again, the water army and some passersby who liked to create trouble started commenting again.
——Please take note, a big bunch of people are going to feel disappointed later.
——Please be wary when chasing idols! Be careful of the disappointment!
——No matter how good-looking or how rich he is, if there’s a problem with the celebrity’s personality and perspectives, please don’t be their fan~!
——That’s right. What’s the point of being handsome when this person doesn’t even acknowledge his mother? He can only be described as a scum who appears cultured and refined!
…
Shen Qianhui couldn’t see the comments on the bullet curtain. She just appeared to be confused as she looked at Matriarch Shen. She asked, feeling puzzled, “Mother, what… are you guys doing?”
Little Xiang dashed to her and said, “Madam Shen, I heard you cut ties with your mother five years ago. Your mother now knows that she’s in the wrong. May I ask if you’re willing to forgive her?”
Shen Qianhui’s pupils contracted and she looked at Matriarch Shen in disbelief. The little bit of kindness and kinship she still had toward her mother now completely dissipated.
Shen Qianhui was an elite in the business world, so how could she not understand what Matriarch Shen was trying to do? How could she not understand what Matriarch Shen was thinking?
Hence, she clenched her fists tightly and no longer acted obediently before Matriarch Shen like she had done in the past. She straightened her posture and looked coldly toward Matriarch Shen. “Mother, is it so hard for you to let our family off?”
The moment she said this, Matriarch Shen’s countenance stiffened up slightly.
Shen Qianhui’s voice still sounded pleasant, but the coldness in her tone was something that Matriarch Shen had never heard before.
Jing Zhen also spoke up, “Mother-in-law, the Shen Family has made use of Qianhui to earn so much money. Isn’t it enough? Why do you still continue to pester us?”
Little Xiang felt like she was hearing a different story from the conversation and asked, “Can you tell us more about it?”
Jing Zhen looked at Shen Qianhui.
She was the one who had feelings for the Shen Family. Jing Zhen didn’t know if his wife was willing to expose everything to the public.
Shen Qianhui then took a step forward and stood in front of him. At this moment, the frail-looking woman didn’t wish to be protected. She also wanted to be the one to protect her family.
She looked at Matriarch Shen. “Mother, are you sure you want me to explain the entire situation of why I left the family?”
Matriarch Shen’s eyes narrowed. “Qianhui, no matter the reason, it’s just a conflict between us. Since there’s a conflict, we should resolve it. I only want you guys to come back home. We’re family. Why can’t we resolve the problem and be reunited?”
As Matriarch Shen spoke, she overlooked a luxurious Bentley slowly driving over.
Yun Zhengyang and Madam Yun were in the car!
