522 She Wants Her For Sure!

After entering the room, the Queen saw a man lying on the bed with disheveled clothes and his head buried in the blanket.
When Shen Qianhui opened the door, she instinctively protected her belly and looked at the Queen warily, saying that her husband was changing clothes and not convenient to see people.
However, the Queen’s gaze was oppressive and made Shen Qianhui feel immense pressure, causing her to take a step back.
Just then, a slender figure suddenly appeared in the doorway, blocking the space between the Queen and Shen Qianhui!
It was Shen Ruojing!
The girl stood tall and straight, emitting a stubborn and tenacious chill. Shen Ruojing’s eyes resembled the Queen’s eyes in her youth, and her voice was clear and cold.
“Queen, the banquet is about to begin. Shall I lead you downstairs?”
The Queen narrowed her eyes. She then suddenly smiled and focused her attention on Shen Ruojing. “Okay.”
Shen Ruojing pointed to the doorway, and the Queen exited first.
Before leaving, she gave a thoughtful glance back at her father who was lying on the bed.
Shen Ruojing wondered if her father’s face had attracted bad luck, causing the Queen to take notice of him.
After they left, Jing Zhen finally stuck his head out from under the covers and said “Wife, that old witch is too scary!”
Shen Qianhui nodded in agreement.
The butler who had been standing at the doorway watching them suddenly felt a bit out of place.
“Sir, you are a man! What’s the point of hiding behind a woman?!” He then turned around in anger and went to the lounge to find Shen Yuansong.
Shen Yuansong and a few others were chatting in the lounge. When they saw the butler come back, they asked, “What happened?”
The butler sighed and recounted what had just happened.
When Shen Yuansong heard that her daughter dared to open the door in front of the Queen, he felt relieved, but when she heard that Jing Zhen had been hiding under the covers and hadn’t dared to face the Queen, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath and say, “This scoundrel, he really can’t hold his own!”
However, in front of the other three heads of the family, he didn’t want to vent his anger. He just stood up and said, “I’ll go check on him.”
After Shen Yuansong left, the heads of the Xu and Rong families exchanged a glance, and a hint of mockery flashed in their eyes. They both sighed and said, “The future of the Shen family can only rely on Miss Shen, right?”
“Her parents are really not presentable!”
“The Shen family has not yet given two-thirds of their assets to the Queen. If they do, I don’t know if they can hold on to this family business.”
As they talked, the head of the Xu family suddenly spoke up, “Actually, sacrificing a daughter for a marriage alliance may not be unacceptable. The Xu family has plenty of daughters…no matter whom we send out to marry, it’s still a marriage alliance, isn’t it?”
The head of the Rong family looked at him and said, “I agree, but Old Shen is different, he only has one daughter…Speaking of which, I don’t even have a daughter. It’s a pity!”
Old Master Bai listened to the two people’s words and almost rolled his eyes. “Not every family’s daughter is wanted by the royal family!”
The heads of the Xu and Rong families exchanged a glance, smiled, and stopped talking.
In the banquet hall, Shen Ruojing and the three children personally received the Queen. Shen Ruojing was calm and composed, without any obsequiousness, and the three kids were lively and clever.
The Queen looked at the three children.
Chu Tianye was smart and clever. He would definitely be a talented businessman in the future.
Chu Xiaomeng was a bit silly, but she had her own interests and would definitely be a scientist with great achievements in the future.
As for Chu Yu…
He was stable and mature. Even at a young age, he had learned to keep a straight face, making him the best candidate for the crown prince position!
The Queen’s gaze became increasingly envious, and it showed in her eyes.
Shen Ruojing seemed to sense something, so she patted Chu Xiaomeng’s head and said, “The heat is too strong today, let’s go change our clothes.’
After saying that, she nodded at the Queen and said, “Excuse me.” With just two words, she took the three little ones and left.
The royal butler watched her and said, ‘Queen, she’s so impolite!”
The Queen smiled. “She did it on purpose.’
The butler was full of question marks.
The Queen explained lightly, “I thought that if Shen Ruojing’s mother could give birth to a daughter like her, her mother must be remarkable. But when I saw her, I found that she was just an ordinary woman, extremely fragile and weak. Such a person is not suitable for the royal family, but Shen Ruojing herself is.”
The Queen enviously watched the backs of the three children and suddenly felt a little empty. She couldn’t help but say, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if Shen Ruojing could give birth to three cute grandchildren for me?
The butler was shocked. He understood that the Queen was captivated by the three little ones.
He couldn’t help but remind her, “But those are the children of the Shen and Chu families and have nothing to do with our royal family.”
“I’t doesn’t matter,” the Queen said with a confident smile. “Shen Ruojing is only 26 years old, she’s young. If she can give birth to these three, she can give me another three!”
Her words were imposing and made the butler stunned.
The Queen suddenly looked at him and said, “I regret it.”
The butler was slightly taken aback.
The Queen smiled and said, “I understand why that old man, Shen Yuansong, would rather give up two-thirds of the Shen family’s property than let go of her. It’s because she’s valuable. We missed out on this business.’ The butler said, “But Your Highness, the Shen family won’t agree.”
The Queen smiled. “They will agree today..”
