Chapter 328 - Shen Lanzhi’s Distress (1/2)

s.h.i.+ Nuannuan did not want to lose her mother or Zuo Weiyi.

She understood that her brother probably did not resist or fight back because he was also caught in a dilemma.

Was it really true that it would be impossible for her brother to be elected as the president of Country C without Tengtang Xi?

Shen Lanzhi was filled with guilt as she looked at the young girl in front of her.

“Nuannuan, please forgive your mommy. I know that what I did was very cruel to Weiyi but… Mommy has already lost your daddy. I don’t know what I will do if I lose both of you. I will be left with nothing at all in the end…”

She was not afraid that she would be kicked out of the s.h.i.+ family. She was only afraid that she would lose both her children.

She was very afraid that things would go back to the days, more than twenty years ago, where she could not even see her own children when she wanted to.

s.h.i.+ Nuannuan’s heart was also very heavy when she saw her mother’s teary eyes.

Even though her mother was brought back to the s.h.i.+ family after her father pa.s.sed away, her grandfather had always been very cold toward her mother. Even though the servants treated her mother with respect, her grandfather still felt as though her mother did not deserve to be here at all.

She really did not understand what her grandfather was thinking of. Has he already forgotten how her father died five years ago?

s.h.i.+ Nuannuan could not help but stretch out her hands to embrace her mother as she thought of all the pain and suffering that her mother had gone through when she was young. “Mommy, I also want our family to be reunited, and I also hope that we can always stay together. Don’t worry. As long as brother is around, the three of us will never be separated. You have to trust in my brother!”

s.h.i.+ Nuannuan’s words caused Shen Lanzhi to fall into contemplation for a while.

She knew that her son was very strong and capable. However, no matter how capable he was, he could never compete with his grandfather, right?

After releasing her daughter, Shen Lanzhi smiled before she said, “As long as both of you are by my side, I do not care about anything or anyone else.”

“No, Mommy. You have to care about Weiyi too. She is my brother’s one true love. If you really love my brother, you have to accept Weiyi too!”

Shen Lanzhi frowned as she looked into s.h.i.+ Nuannuan’s eyes.

“She… is she really that good?”
