The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

Chapter 1152 You Have to Call Me Sister

Shen family.

Now that the family has gone bankrupt, the family members can finally eat together at the same table. At this moment, the four of them are sitting around the table having lunch.

Shen Junyu put down his chopsticks, straightened his expression, and said seriously, "Mom and Dad, Xue Ning is getting engaged. Do you want to go and see?"

Shen's mother immediately became displeased: "We are her elders, but she didn't invite us. What are we supposed to do there?"

Shen Junyu was speechless: "Mom, you're still focusing on this issue now. Is it even meaningful? Shouldn't we be thinking about how to repair our relationship?"

Mother Shen curled her lip: "I don't want to fawn over her. If you want to curry favor with her, you can go yourselves. I'm not going."

Shen Junyu corrected: "It's not flattery, it's normal interaction."

Mother Shen was determined: "No matter what you say, I will not go."

Shen Junqi took over the conversation, with a hint of displeasure: "If you guys don't want to go, then we'll go."

Shen's mother was particularly dissatisfied: "My two perfectly good sons went to work for her, and my daughter left too. After all this trouble, what has our Shen family gotten in return?"

Shen Junyu felt a surge of anger: "Mom, this isn't anyone else's fault. You made the wrong choice back then. Why did you bring Shen Nana back?"

Shen's mother was clearly speechless for a long time before finally saying, "Shouldn't I bring my own daughter back?"

Shen Junyu questioned, "Then isn't the daughter you raised for twenty-two years your daughter?"

Shen's mother wanted to refute, but couldn't find anything to say, and couldn't help but feel frustrated.

Shen Junqi also said, "Mom, you shouldn't have brought Shen Nana back in the first place. Compared to Xue Ning, the person you brought back is like a fish eye compared to a pearl. Don't you regret it?"

Shen's mother retorted loudly, "What's the use of regretting it?"

Shen Junyu said angrily, "If you hadn't interfered back then, my family wouldn't be in such a miserable state now."

Mother Shen retorted angrily, "You blame us? Didn't we tell you back then? And you agreed!"

Shen Junyu retorted, "Did we agree? We were clearly against it. You're the one who's going your own way. No one can go against you, or they'll be considered unfilial."

Shen's mother stared blankly at her two sons: "..."

Suddenly, Mr. Shen spoke up: "Alright, stop arguing. Things are already like this, what's the use of arguing?"

The house fell silent, but everyone was seething with anger.

Mr. Shen spoke up: "It was our family's idea to bring them back in the first place. Is it meaningful to blame each other now? You two are already so old, and you still want to argue with your elders. Is that appropriate?"

Shen Junyu couldn't help but say, "Dad, do I want to start a fight? I'm just stating the facts."

Mr. Shen said angrily, "Alright, that's enough. Your mother and I were wrong. Is that alright?"

Shen Junyu and Shen Junqi remained silent, knowing that their parents were only saying this to shut them up.

Forget it, it's hard to change the older generation's mindset; no matter how much they say, it's useless.

In silence, Shen Junyu and Shen Junqi left together.

……

Shen Nana also learned about Shen Xuening's upcoming engagement from a former friend. For some reason, that friend told Shen Nana about it.

Staring at the messages on her phone, Shen Nana smiled self-deprecatingly. If she had Shen Xuening's intelligence, wouldn't she be the one living a happy life now?

But she quickly came to her senses, her eyes reddened slightly, and she couldn't help but cry.

If the Shen family hadn't taken her away back then, would she be better off? Would she not be so lonely now?

She has now been abandoned by both Shen families. The WeChat message she sent to Liu Juan on the Dragon Boat Festival has not been replied to yet. She knows that everything is irreversible.

Shen Nana cried for a while before she calmed down, wiped away her tears, and the bitterness in her heart finally subsided a little.

How did I end up living my life like this?

Shen Nana glanced around the empty house, and a wave of loneliness washed over her, enveloping her.

She took out her phone, hesitating whether to call Liu Juan...

After hesitating for a full ten minutes, Shen Nana finally dialed the phone number.

When Liu Juan saw the unfamiliar number, she assumed it was a guest or someone from the Qin family looking for her, so she answered, "Hello, what's up?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Nana realized that Liu Juan had deleted her phone number. But since she had finally gotten through, she said through gritted teeth, "Mom."

Liu Juan was stunned. Shen Nana?

She tentatively asked, "Are you Shen Nana?"

Shen Nana replied, "It's me, Mom. I heard that Shen Xuening is getting engaged, so I called you."

"Yes, we're getting engaged tomorrow." Liu Juan didn't know what else to say, and after saying that, she didn't say anything more.

Shen Nana said enviously, "Shen Xuening is so lucky. She has money, such a good boyfriend, and parents who love her so much."

Liu Juan listened silently, then asked, "How have you been lately?"

"I'm doing fine." Shen Nana sighed silently. Life alone is just like that. "Are you guys in City A now?"

Liu Juan replied, "Yes, I came yesterday."

"Can we meet?" Shen Nana suddenly wanted to see Liu Juan for no reason.

Liu Juan refused, feeling that seeing Shen Nana would hurt Shen Xuening, who now only recognized Shen Xuening as her daughter: "I have things to do and can't find the time, I'm sorry."

Shen Nana felt a pang of disappointment, but she wasn't surprised: "Then, I was being presumptuous."

Liu Juan didn't comfort Shen Nana; this person was no longer her concern: "Is there anything else? If not, you can hang up. I'm a bit busy here."

"Okay, I'm hanging up now." Shen Nana quickly hung up the phone. At this moment, she remembered how good Liu Juan had been to her, and the memories were still vivid in her mind, making her even more upset.

Unfortunately, there's no going back!

……

Shen Dong noticed that Liu Juan was acting strangely, so he asked with concern, "Who called you? Why did your face change?"

“Shen Nana called,” Liu Juan said, putting her phone back in her bag. “I didn’t expect her to call me.”

Shen Dong was puzzled: "She's just making a phone call, why are you reacting like this?"

Liu Juan is quite perceptive: "I felt sorry for her when I heard her voice."

"How is she pitiful? She should be eating and drinking well now, which is better than when she was with us. Why do you pity her?" Shen Dong has always held a grudge against Shen Nana for abandoning them, and he may never be able to get over it for the rest of his life.

Liu Juan whispered a reminder: "Don't speak so harshly. It's very difficult for a girl to live alone outside."

Shen Dong retorted, "How could she possibly be in a difficult position? Once she returns to the Shen family, isn't she the princess of the Shen family? Who would make things difficult for a princess?"

Liu Juan: "..."

Shen Dong said, "Don't worry too much about it. She left so decisively back then, abandoning everyone. No matter how she's doing now, it's her choice back then."

Liu Juan sighed, "I understand."

……

night.

Shen Wenxu and the others dragged their tired bodies back to the hotel and then went to their respective rooms.

They spent the whole day playing outside, but traveling is really physically demanding. Walking and stopping all the time was exhausting.

Shen Wenxu threw himself onto the bed and took a deep breath: "That feels so good."

Tao Mian imitated Shen Wenxu and threw himself onto the bed: "Finally back. If you hadn't come back, I wouldn't have been able to walk anymore."

Shen Wenxu turned his face to look at Tao Mian: "I'm not so much unable to walk, but I'm really tired."

Listening to their conversation, Ginseng Doll sat down on the sofa: "You're so young, it's just a short walk, why are you so tired?"

The two looked at the ginseng doll together and said in unison, "How come he's not tired?"

The ginseng doll calmly replied, "Because I exercise regularly. If I were like you guys, how could I possibly survive?"

Two people: "..."

"I have to admit, you have pretty good stamina." Tao Mian suddenly changed the subject. "By the way, I still don't know where you're from. Where are you from?"

The ginseng doll remained calm; he had already thought about these questions: "I'm from W City, didn't you know that?"

Tao Mian honestly shook his head: "I don't know, you seem like someone who suddenly appeared out of nowhere."

The ginseng baby said, "Now you know, right?"

"I see." Tao Mian said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to come to my cousin's engagement party. Are you two that close?"

The ginseng doll said, "Of course it's good! She saved my life; she's my savior. How could I not come to her engagement party?"

Shen Wenxu became interested: "You saved me?"

The ginseng doll said in a serious manner, "Yes, I like to go out alone. I was almost kidnapped the other day, but Xue Ning saved me."

Shen Wenxu frowned: "Can you call me 'sister'? Why are you calling me 'Xue Ning'?"

The ginseng doll said, "I like shouting like that."

Shen Wenxu suggested, "You should just call her 'sister' instead. It sounds awkward when you call her by her name like that."

"I'm not calling you, so don't listen. Anyway, I'm not going to change how I address you." The ginseng doll would never call Shen Xuening "sister." In his eyes, Shen Xuening was just a little girl, while he had lived for thousands of years and was an old monster.

“You’re so stubborn,” Shen Wenxu said. “Fine, as long as my sister can finish, you can call me whatever you want, otherwise it’ll make me seem petty.”

"Shen Wenxu, do you like your sister that much?" the ginseng doll asked curiously.

"Nonsense, she's the sister who changed my fate. If it weren't for her, I'd still be a fool." Shen Wenxu was told about his past. He had regained consciousness after Shen Xuening came home, so his family attributed the credit to Shen Xuening.

He was originally saved by Shen Xuening using the spiritual spring water, so Shen Xuening accepted it calmly.

"Huh? You used to be an idiot?" The ginseng doll was a little surprised; this was the first time he had heard that.

"Yes, I was born with it, but I got better after my sister came back," Shen Wenxu said.

The ginseng doll immediately understood what was going on: "Then you really should thank your sister more."

Shen Wenxu said proudly, "Absolutely."
