Chapter 148: Quarreling
“Of course it’s true,” Jiang Jingqiu patted her back and proudly said, “Sisi is my baby, you’re our Shen family’s little princess. What does that b*tch Shen Hanxing count as? She’s just a piece of mud on the ground. Does she deserve to be compared to you? Don’t worry. In the future, everyone will only know our little princess, Shen Sisi. No one will remember Shen Hanxing at all.”
Shen Sisi only become happy after Jiang Jingqiu said all these.
Just then, the phone rang. Shen Sisi saw the name flashing on the screen of the phone and revealed a shy smile. “Mom, I have to take this call.”
“It’s Zhuang Li, right?” Jiang Jingqiu smiled ambiguously, “My daughter is very charming. Go ahead.”
Thinking of Zhuang Li’s tall figure and handsome face, as well as his gentleness and domineering manner when facing her, Shen Sisi’s small face turned red. Zhuang Li might not be as powerful as Ji Yan, and he might not even be as imposing, but Zhuang Li’s future was full of potential. Sooner or later, he would surpass Ji Yan, that disabled person.
Shen Sisi patted her cheeks and ran to the balcony to answer the call. Her voice was sweet as she answered, “Hello?”
“It’s me.”
Zhuang Li listened to Shen Sisi’s sweet voice. The voice that he used to think was extremely pleasant seemed to have lost its appeal at this moment. He paused for a moment before saying, “I didn’t disturb your rest, did I?”
“No,” Shen Sisi chuckled and smiled sweetly as she replied, “Why are you calling me so late?”
“I...” Zhuang Li’s eyes darkened. The voice beside his ear was gentle and sweet. This was the voice that had always moved his heart. However, a beautiful and aggressive face that had a clear and cold voice flashed past his eyes unintentionally.
Zhuang Li’s adam’s apple moved slightly. Then, he said, “You said previously that you couldn’t take Maestro Lin Ran as your master because your sister targeted you... What exactly happened? Why did Shen Hanxing hit you? What did you say to her?”
Shen Sisi was stunned. She felt that Zhuang Li’s tone was somewhat interrogative.
“You- why would you ask me this?” Shen Sisi was a little flustered, she subconsciously replied perfunctorily, “You’re thinking too much. When did I ever tell you that my sister was targeting me? I was just a little disappointed. I didn’t expect you to misunderstand. You didn’t say anything in front of my sister because of this, did you?”
Damn it, did Shen Hanxing run to Zhuang Li and spout some nonsense?! Shen Hanxing, this b*tch, really deserved to die! At this moment, a news feed popped up on Shen Sisi’s phone screen. She didn’t care at first, but the title of the news feed caught her attention.
“The Zhuang brothers turned against each other and fought for love?”
Shen Sisi had an ominous premonition. She clicked the news feed with her trembling fingers. What greeted her eyes was a picture of the bruised corner of Zhuang Li’s mouth. The article vividly described how Zhuang Li and Zhuang Hengyu had repeatedly bid for Shen Hanxing’s earrings at the auction.
There were also several pictures of Zhuang Li looking at Shen Hanxing through the gap between Zhuang Hengyu and Ji Yan. Zhuang Li’s gaze was extremely affectionate under the illumination of the lights, and his eyes seemed to hide a deep one-sided love.
Shen Sisi felt like she had been struck by lightning. Why? Shen Hanxing had gotten married in her place. It was clearly not a good marriage. However, not only did Shen Hanxing not fall into despair, but her life was also getting better by the day. Now, she was going to steal the person Shen Sisi liked? Why?!
Shen Sisi was unsatisfied and angry. She only felt that her surroundings were constantly rumbling, so much so that she could not hear Zhuang Li’s explanation clearly.
“Zhuang Li.” Shen Sisi was trembling all over. Her voice was trembling so much that it almost broke. She asked, “You like Shen Hanxing, right? So now you’re questioning me because that woman Shen Hanxing suspects me?”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Zhuang Li was stunned. After a pause, his anger soared to the sky. “Shen Sisi, don’t you know how I feel about you?”
“I don’t know!” Shen Sisi was surrounded by anger. Her voice was sharp as she retorted, “If you don’t like her, then why did you bid for her earrings? And you even called to question me because of her. Zhuang Li, you’ve really disappointed me!”
“Shen Sisi, you’re picking a fight for no reason!” Zhuang Li was furious. He had always been overbearing and unreasonable, so how could he stand being questioned like this? With an icy expression on his face, he said, “Your behavior makes me very disgusted. If you insist on misunderstanding this issue, then so be it. That’s it, I’m hanging up.”
