Moreover, Rong Jiaojiao has a good father; even in the end, if the second branch doesn’t marry her into the family, the head of the Rong Family wouldn’t let his niece marry Shen Xingwei.
However, Shen Xingwei was overly protected as a child and hasn’t been exposed to the ways of the business world, making him inevitably naive.
Furthermore, Shen Xingwei trusts his family too much, so he is the one being led around in circles by the people from the second branch.
Even what Miss Rong Qingqing can see clearly, Young Master Shen Xingwei cannot see due to his excessive trust in his family and fails to realize the harsh reality hidden behind these circumstances.
"Boss, it seems Miss Rong Qingqing really has no relation with Shen Xingwei and indeed hates him." The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚✦𝕟𝕖𝕥
Lin Bufan felt relieved, "I was worried it was a plot within a plot, but Miss Rong Qingqing really couldn’t be with the second branch."
Shen Jue acknowledged with a hum, "You’re not completely hopeless yet."
Who knew, Lin Bufan’s line of thought would take another turn.
"Could it be this is the second act by Miss Rong Qingqing and Shen Xingwei? Just to deepen our trust in Miss Rong Qingqing?"
Lin Bufan asked, with a look of shock on his face, "That would be too terrifying."
"Provide a recording, let us hear Miss Rong Qingqing’s conversation with Shen Xingwei, so we know Miss Rong Qingqing refused to be an undercover for the second branch here; in reality, it’s a plot within a plot, and even more sophisticated. If we underestimate them, we’ll completely be their pawns."
Lin Bufan continued talking endlessly, while Shen Jue already turned around and left.
He has no patience to listen to a fool justifying themselves with high talk.
How could Rong Qingqing possibly be with the second branch?
Rong Qingqing arrived at the entrance of Old Master Shen’s villa and waited at the door for two minutes before the butler invited her in.
Seeing Mr. Shen in pajamas with a jacket thrown over, waiting in the living room, Rong Qingqing showed a face full of apologies.
"Grandpa Shen, I’m sorry to disturb you so late."
"We’re family, no need to be so courteous. Come, sit down, and tell me what’s on your mind, no rush." Mr. Shen was very kind to Rong Qingqing.
This child has been well-behaved from a young age and never caused worry. The family swap thing caused her the greatest harm.
Rong Qingqing has an introverted personality and wouldn’t easily seek him out unless there’s truly a problem.
Rong Qingqing nodded and sat across from the old master.
Looking up again, her eyes were red, tears threatening to fall.
About to speak, but tears preceded her words.
A truly aggrieved and sorrowful expression.
"Grandpa Shen, I know, I shouldn’t have come to you abruptly, but my heart is really too heavy."
Rong Qingqing’s tears fell one by one.
"Child, don’t cry, whatever grievance you have, tell Grandpa Shen. Was it Shen Jue who bullied you?" Mr. Shen could only think of Shen Jue as the culprit.
After all, in the main family, the eldest daughter-in-law has a gentle character, is poised, and wouldn’t trouble the younger generation, completely different from the second branch’s Liao Yamei.
Hence, within the circle, the eldest daughter-in-law is more favored than the second.
And Shen Qiao, who now wants nothing more than to protect Rong Qingqing like an elder sister, constantly referring to her as Sister Qingqing, wouldn’t possibly give her any trouble.
"Grandpa Shen, it’s not Shen Jue." Rong Qingqing repeatedly shook her hand, then placed her phone on the table and played the recording.
As the recording played, Rong Qingqing continued to sob softly, as if her emotions were becoming increasingly uncontrollable while listening to it.
