Chapter 972 Protecting the Flower
Shen Rongyin was beautiful to begin with. At that moment, her young and beautiful face was even more charming because of the pitiful redness in her eyes. Fang Qingyang, who was next to her, stared blankly.
Slightly startled by the woman’s question, Chi Lingyan frowned and spat out indifferently, “Sorry!”
Shen Rongyin’s eyes turned even redder and she swayed unsteadily. “Brother Chi, anyone else can have doubts about me, but not you!”
The other people in the living room were deathly silent and embarrassed when they heard Shen Rongyin’s question and ambiguous words.
Mother Shen was angry and indignant when she saw how obsessed her daughter was with Chi Lingyan.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t stand watching this woman put on an act, and the target was her father. She coughed softly and was about to speak.
Fang Qingyang liked Shen Rongyin to begin with. He had been fearful of Chi Lingyan’s daughter earlier, but at that moment, he was eager to protect Shen Rongyin and couldn’t wait to make his feelings known in front of the Shen family. He immediately rushed out to support Shen Rongyin, who was on the verge of collapsing, and hurried to say, “Rongyin, I believe you. No matter who doubts you, I believe you! Even if you’re some kind of monster, I still like you!”
Chi Shuyan: …
The others: …
Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Fang Qinyang said to Commander Lu, “Commander Lu, I don’t recommend rashly bringing people to the Shen residence. They might think that Commissar Shen has committed some crime. Rumors are fearful things. It’s a small matter for Commander Wei to bring people in, but for the Shen family, Commissar Shen and Rongyin, it’s a matter of their reputation being tarnished. If you and the Chi family can’t produce any evidence, I think we’ll end this here. In any case, I really can’t see how Rongyin doesn’t look human!”
Saying this, Fang Qingyang gave the Chi father and daughter and Wei Xiao a meaningful look.
Wei Xiao spat blood from anger and panicked at Fang Qingyang’s words. There was only lust in the eyes of this idiot, Fang Qingyang. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have gotten Yan Yan to cure him at all!
At that moment, Commander Lu took a good look at Shen Rongyin. He might have had some doubts about Shen Rongyin before, but when he saw her heartbroken and soft appearance in front of Chi Lingyan, the doubts in his heart were completely dispelled. In addition to what Mother Shen had said before, he had indeed watched this child grow up.
Rong Yin had always had a good reputation. Who wouldn’t praise her?
At that moment, he tried to smooth things over. “Alright, Old Wei, Chi, it’s all a misunderstanding. That’s it for today!”
Wei Xiao: …
Wei Xiao’s face changed, and he was about to speak, when Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and suddenly said expressionlessly, “Uncle Wei, in that case, let’s leave first!”
Wei Xiao’s face changed and he hurriedly said, “Yan Yan, you…”
Without waiting for Wei Xiao to speak, Chi Shuyan blinked at him and then at her father. “Why don’t we do as Commander Old Lu says?”
Since his daughter had relented, Chi Lingyan also relented, and Commander Lu heaved a sigh of relief.
No one expected Shen Rongyin to suddenly look devastated as she looked at Chi Lingyan again and said, “Brother Chi, you refused to be with me before. Have you always suspected that I’m not human?”
