There was no sign of remorse in the old lady's words. Xi Yuan was so angry that she was shaking all over, "Mom, do you know why Ning Ning beat her? She just provoked and insulted me, so Ning Ning did it. Why did you protect an outsider?" , instead of protecting Ning Ning."
"Who is she? In my heart, the one who is carrying my little great-grandson is my granddaughter-in-law."
Xi Yuan became even more angry. She wanted to say something, but Ye Xinning held her hand down.
"Ning Ning." Xi Yuan lowered her head and looked at Ye Xinning. In her eyes, she felt sorry for Ye Xinning. Just now, Ye Xinning did it for her. If it wasn't for her, she wouldn't have received this slap. She felt extremely guilty at the moment. I wish she was the one who was beaten just now.
Ye Xinning shook his head at Xi Yuan and signaled Xi Yuan to stop talking.
She touched her cheek, and it suddenly hurt.
She frowned and shifted her gaze, landing on Grandma Shen Lin.
The old lady also looked at her, noticing the coldness in her eyes and feeling a little frightened.
But after thinking about it, the old lady said confidently, "What are you looking at? Do you dare to do anything to me? Don't forget, I am Shen Lin's grandma."
Ye Xinning curled her lips and smiled while pulling at the wound on her face. The more it hurt, the more she woke up, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. As you said, you are Shen Lin's grandma, and he can see it." A very important person, so if you don't like me, insult me, or even hit me, I will accept it."
She obviously said this with a smile, but the coldness in her eyes was scary.
The old lady didn't say anything. Ye Xinning turned his attention to Jiang An. Jiang An covered his face with tears in his eyes that couldn't fall. Ye Xinning was upset just seeing her like this.
After a trip to New Zealand, Jiang An not only found a new supporter, but also perfected his time-blocking performance skills.
"I said that you are targeting me and want my position. If you can persuade Shen Lin to divorce, I will sign the agreement immediately. I will not even take anything from the Shen family and leave immediately. But Before I see the divorce agreement given by Shen Lin, you'd better be calm. Don't involve innocent people. What happened today is just a slap. Next time, I don't guarantee that I can do anything. If you mess around again, it's best to pray that someone will protect you at all times."
After Ye Xinning said this, she didn't want to watch Jiang An's performance anymore. She pulled Xi Yuan and left the courtyard. She also completely ignored the sounds behind her.
Ye Xinning and Xi Yuan had just returned to the living room when they saw Shen Lin and Shen Yu, father and son, who had just finished talking about something upstairs.
She didn't want the two of them to see the injury on her face, so she pulled her hair to cover it, not for any other reason, but mainly because it was too ugly...
And even though she was so covering up, Shen Lin discovered it immediately.
He quickened his pace and walked to her side, raising his hand to brush her hair away.
Ye Xinning took a step back out of instinctive reaction. This slap had nothing to do with Shen Lin directly, but if it wasn't Shen Lin's messy things, she didn't have to suffer these crimes.
For the time being, she didn't want to have any contact with Shen Lin.
Shen Lin had been with her for so long, how could he not know that her subconscious actions were repelling her.
Shen Lin retracted his outstretched hand. He couldn't get an answer from her, so he looked at Xi Yuan.
"Aunt Xi, what's going on?"
Xi Yuan never thought of hiding it, not only that, she also polished it up a lot.
"Jiang An had a dirty mouth and said a lot of things. Ning Ning couldn't bear to listen, so he went up to teach her a lesson, but your grandma slapped Ning Ning without asking. The slap was very hard. It makes me feel so sad just looking at it.”
Shen Lin frowned and looked at Ye Xinning. She lowered her head and said nothing, but her repulsive attitude was worth a thousand words.
Shen Yu didn't know what happened just now. When he heard Xi Yuan say that one side was his biological mother and the other side was his daughter-in-law, Shen Yu didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only cough lightly to Xi Yuan, "Okay. "
Xi Yuan was still suppressing his anger, but when he heard what Shen Yu said, he glared at Shen Yu angrily, "Have you told me? Don't you know what your mother said? Ning Ning did it all because she spoke for me. I was beaten just now, Shen Yu, you can do it, I can just leave, so that I don’t look like an eyesore to you.”
Xi Yuan finished speaking unhappily and quickly went upstairs, "I'm going to pack my clothes right now."
Shen Yu followed him and said as he walked, "I didn't mean that..."
Everyone in the living room left, leaving only Ye Xinning and Shen Lin. Ye Xinning found it funny. She was the one who should leave, and she was the one who was beaten and had no energy left. Xi Yuan was even more angry than her client. Unfair.
She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't notice that during this period, Shen Lin's eyes had been falling on her.
He stretched out his hand again, but this time he paused longer than before. He also remembered to ask her opinion, "I'll just take a look, okay?"
Ye Xinning retracted her thoughts, met his eyes, and said lightly, "There's nothing interesting to see."
She walked to the sofa and sat down.
Shen Lin followed her and held her hand.
Ye Xinning struggled, but did not struggle.
she,"……"
Sure enough, this man couldn't maintain his gentlemanly attitude, and he was still extremely domineering at heart.
"are you angry?"
"Um."
She couldn't be more honest.
Shen Lin held her hand tightly and said, "I'm sorry."
Ye Xinning was stunned. Maybe she was used to seeing Shen Lin take it for granted. She was a little uncomfortable with him suddenly apologizing like this.
Thinking about this, Ye Xinning shook her head. What happened to her? Is she used to being abused?
"I don't regret the slap I gave Jiang An." She told him truthfully.
"I know."
Ye Xinning was surprised, "You didn't ask me why I hit her?"
"Aunt Xi just said that she went too far." Shen Lin's words were a bit perfunctory. What he was concerned about now was not why Ye Xinning hit Jiang An, but how severe the redness and swelling on Ye Xinning's face was.
He pulled her hair aside and saw her face that was swollen from being beaten, and his expression instantly darkened.
"Why is grandma so cruel? I'll go find her."
Shen Lin said and was about to stand up, but Ye Xinning held his hand.
Shen Lin turned around and the two looked at each other.
Ye Xinning lowered his voice and said, "Shen Lin, if you go to grandma now, you won't be able to solve any problems. You and I both know what the root cause is."
Shen Lin's eyes were deep and understanding, and he understood the meaning of Ye Xinning's words.
He sat back next to her and kissed the palm of her hand, a very intimate and special gesture.
"I'll take you to a place later."
…
Grandma Shen Lin's slap was very hard. Shen Lin asked the servant to prepare ice cubes, apply it on her and then apply medicine on her.
Ye Xinning thought it was not that exaggerated, but Shen Lin insisted, "It would be bad if there are scars."
