After Shen Wanqing and Gu Jinyan left, the banquet ended on a sour note.
After Shen Zhiying left the Fu Ya Pavilion, she returned to the General's residence in a huff.
When the maids and servants saw Shen Zhiying's gloomy face, they lowered their heads in fear and hid in a corner.
"Where are Father and Mother?" Shen Zhiying stopped in her tracks and suppressed her anger. Her chest heaved as she asked.
The butler lowered his head and replied respectfully, "Miss, Old Master and Madam are in the study room."
"Okay."
Shen Zhiying raised her chin with a sullen expression and walked in without looking back.
…
…
Shen Zhiying was about to return to her room. However, she had suffered too much at Shen Wanqing's place today. She could not help but want to seek comfort from Madam Shen in the study room.
When she arrived at the door of the study room, Shen Zhiying raised her hand to knock on the door and enter. However, she could vaguely hear the conversation inside.
"Old Master, do you think … I'm dreaming?" Madam Shen's dazed voice was heard.
General Shen walked over and patted Madam Shen's shoulder gently. "You're not dreaming. It's real."
Shen Toufeng hugged Madam Shen and looked ahead in a daze. He murmured in relief, "We … really found our daughter …"
Daughter?
Shen Zhiying, who was holding her breath and eavesdropping outside the door, frowned in confusion.
She was a little confused, but her instincts told her that this was not good news.
"But … Qingqing's attitude today was very obvious. She has no intention of acknowledging us."
"Don't let your imagination run wild. She's just not sure herself. Didn't she provide us with some clues for us to investigate? "Shen Toufeng patted her back and comforted her.
Madam Shen's face turned pale and she looked a little anxious. "Yes … yes … Old Master, you're right! Clues … clues … "
She grabbed Shen Toufeng's arm tightly. "Hurry … hurry up! Qingqing mentioned the temple in the south of the city. Old Master, hurry up and check if the midwife who delivered the baby back then is there … "
"Okay, I'll go, I'll go. Don't get agitated." Shen Toufeng, who had always been rough, patiently showed his gentle side to his wife.
After comforting Madam Shen, Shen Toufeng prepared to leave.
Just as he took a step away, Madam Shen held him back.
"What's wrong?" Shen Dangfeng asked curiously.
Mrs. Shen's pale face was a little hesitant. "If Qingqing is really our daughter, then what about Zhiying?"
Hearing that, Shen Toufeng was also stunned. He had not thought about that either.
He said slowly, "Searching for clues is just to prove to Qingqing, but in fact, you and I both know that Qingqing is our daughter."
"Once we find out who the midwife was, Qingqing will definitely be brought back. As for Zhiying …"
Shen Dangfeng paused for a moment, then continued in a deep voice, "Although she's innocent, she's lived a carefree life for so many years. The days of luxury are more than enough to compensate her. At that time, we'll give Zhiying a sum of money, and she'll be free to go wherever she wants. Our daughter, on the other hand, has suffered so much and wandered outside for so long. There is no reason to treat her badly. Although … "
He sighed and shook his head helplessly, "Although Qingqing is living well in the Prime Minister's manor, and Prime Minister Gu treats her like a treasure …"
Shen Zhiying, who was eavesdropping outside the door, suddenly narrowed her eyes.
The summer sun was very strong, and it was very hot.
However, the clothes on Shen Zhiying's back were drenched in cold sweat.
Before she could think about it, Shen Toufeng had already walked out of the room and was about to push the door open.
