Qiao Lian halted and instinctively held her breath. 13579246810ggaax
No one in the room spoke for a moment and the guests seemed to have just arrived. Hence after the housekeeper brought out the tea and placed it on the coffee table, she ran back to her own room in a panic.
Qiao Lian looked around the room and fixed her gaze on Xia Yehua first.
She was sitting on the sofa with an arrogant expression on her face. Song Yuanxi was standing behind her like a frightened rabbit, looking at the people in the room in terror.
But no matter how scared she was, she held Xia Yehua's hand tightly, as though giving her an invisible source of strength.
Even Qiao Lian felt a surge of warmth in her heart, not to mention Xia Yehua.
The Shen family had not raised her for nothing. At a critical moment, she could still hold her own.
At this thought, Qiao Lian turned to look at the newcomers.
Two guests had arrived.
One was Shen Zihao. He was still wearing his flowery shirt, but now his expression was cold and his lips were curled into a faint, mocking smile.
The other was a middle-aged man who looked a little like Shen Zihao and Shen Liangchuan. He had to be … Shen Liangchuan's father.
Although this middle-aged man looked elegant and handsome, he did not have the stunning looks that Shen Liangchuan and Shen Zihao had.
It was obvious that Shen Zihao and Shen Liangchuan had inherited their good looks from Xia Yehua.
No one in the room spoke, but because of Qiao Lian's arrival, Shen Dad and Shen Zihao's gazes were fixed on her.
Qiao Lian was calm and composed. She had seen much grander scenes before, so she couldn't afford to show any fear now.
Hence, she smiled and walked to Xia Yehua's side naturally. She took the latter's hand and said with a determined expression, "Mom."
Xia Yehua nodded and looked at the man opposite her.
She frowned and snorted.
Shen Dad was the first to speak, "This is …?"
His voice was deep and resonant, as though he was above everyone else.
Xia Yehua ignored him, so Shen Zihao immediately explained, "My brother's wife."
Mr. Shen nodded. He looked at Xia Yehua again and sneered.
Xia Yehua narrowed her eyes and said, "Shen Xiu, tell me, why are you here?"
"What for?" Shen Xiu snorted icily again. "Don't tell me you haven't seen the headlines on Weibo?"
Xia Yehua's pupils shrank. "So what if he did? My son has always been a hot topic. With just a little wind, those reporters will make a big fuss. "
Shen Xiu stood up at once and said, "Xia Yehua! That's enough! "
Not to be outdone, Xia Yehua slammed her palm on the coffee table with a loud thud. She tried to use the sound to suppress the other party. "Shen Xiu, you've gone too far! Yelling at me in my house? Believe it or not, I will immediately call security to chase you away! "
Shen Xiu frowned and stared at her. "Woman, can you not be so rude? Do you think that just because you're loud, you're in the right? Do you know what kind of damage Shen Liangchuan's popularity will cause to the Shen family?! The Eldest Young Master of the Shen family was an actor! This will become the gossip of the public, and our Shen family will become the laughing stock of the upper class! This is the good son you have taught. Oh, really good enough. Since young, he has not contributed to the Shen family at all. Instead, he has caused more and more trouble for the family! Where is he? Why hasn't he come home after this incident? Is he too ashamed to come home? "
