"No."
"Why didn't you tell him?" Shuxin let go of Mu Ning Jing and looked at her in confusion.
"He didn't ask."
Shuxin was speechless. If he didn't ask, wouldn't you have taken the initiative to explain?
Seeing how upset Mu Ning Jing was, Shuxin didn't have the heart to scold her. Knowing Mu Ning Jing's character, it was already good enough that she was willing to tell the truth. It was impossible for her to take the initiative to explain.
Shuxin sighed softly. "Are you so upset because you rejected his proposal?"
Mu Ning Jing shook her head. "She found out about Tingxi's proposal and came to look for me this afternoon. She asked me how much money I wanted to leave her son."
Shuxin knew that Mu Ning Jing was referring to Shen Tingxi's mother.
Shuxin stood up angrily from the bed. "How could she do that?"
Shuxin paced around the bed. "She's completely insulting us. She's too much!"
Mu Ning Jing pursed her lips. "She left a check and left."
She left a check?
Shuxin was furious. "Where's the check? Give it to me. I'll throw it at her face. "
"I tore it."
Shuxin snapped her fingers. Her tears were still wet as she praised Mu Ning Jing. "Well done. Who cares about her stupid money?"
Mu Ning Jing lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Shuxin calmed down for a while and sat down beside Mu Ning Jing. "What are your plans?"
Mu Ning Jing looked up at Shuxin before lowering her eyes and shaking her head. "I don't know."
"How can you not know? Don't tell me you're thinking of leaving Shen Tingxi?"
Mu Ning Jing wrung her fingers tightly. Tears fell on her pale fingertips and into her palms. She lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Shuxin looked at Mu Ning Jing and knew that she probably had such thoughts. She lived a lowly life and felt that she wasn't good enough for Shen Tingxi. Her experiences growing up had left her with too many traumas and burdens. Coupled with Shen Tingxi's mother's dislike and disapproval, Mu Ning Jing's inferiority complex was probably even worse.
Shuxin shook Mu Ning Jing's shoulders. "If you do that, then you're a fool... How can you face Shen Tingxi? How can you face his sincerity? "
Mu Ningjing looked helpless. "Then what should I do?"
Shuxin was silent for a moment before saying, "Tell Shen Tingxi about this and let him deal with it."
Mu Ning Jing shook her head. "No. With Tingxi's personality, he'll definitely fight with his mother. I don't want to see them fall out. That will only make his mother hate me more."
Shuxin knew that Mu Ning Jing made sense, but … "You're so considerate of her. She won't accept your kindness. Even if you don't say anything, she still won't like you."
"I know, but at least I didn't ruin their relationship."
Just then, the doorbell rang. Shuxin patted Mu Ning Jing's shoulders. "It should be Yanqing. He's back with the takeout. Wash your face and eat first."
During dinner, Huo Yanqing's cell phone rang. It was Shen Tingxi. Huo Yanqing put down his chopsticks and answered the call. However, it wasn't Shen Tingxi who spoke. "The Fifth Lord, I'm Dong Zai."
Huo Yanqing remembered that Dong Zai was Shen Tingxi's subordinate. "Yes."
"Young Master Shen is fighting with someone. I can't pull them apart. Can you come over?"
