Shentu Wei-Ye said it out loud at last He’d been hinting at it and pushi+ng quietly for it but finally let it out after Xia Lei turned up Love or career - these were the choices he presented to Shentu Tian-Yin
The family hall was quiet This was a fairly crucial moment and the Shentu clan was nervous, especially Shentu Yi’s family; they were more excited than anyone else
Shentu Tian-Yin was about to speak when a head popped into the doorway - Xia Lei’s head
Everyone’s eyes turned to hi up to hi him flat - why did he have to turn up like a dark cloud at such a crucial ? Sorry, I want to say so to Tian-Yin I just need one minute”
“It’s all because of you! Get out! You’re not welcome here!” roared Shentu Wei-Ye suddenly
Xia Lei was not bothered at all and he uish sood for your health to get angry at your age I’ll be frank Tian-Yin and I are living together, and… She’s pregnant with my child How could you bear to tear our faroup turned to stone, including Shentu Tian-Yin She’d only said that they were living together but Xia Lei had exaggerated it further and said that she was pregnant!
Strangely enough, Shentu Tian-Yin’s cheeks turned red even though the statenant wasn’t true
Whispered conversations burst out after a stretch of silence
“How can this be? Tian-Yin is a woman of the Shentu clan and chairnant with that punk’s child?”
“I couldn’t tell that Tian-Yin was a woet it? This punk is here with designs on Vientaine Group! The child in Tian-Yin’s woard for Grandfather!”
“Yeah, this punk’s iant when they’re not even et married and have the child, won’t we all be kicked out from Vientaine Group?”
Shentu Wei-Ye raised the cane in his hand and the faain
“Fine, you come in then,” he said
Xia Lei walked in He’d actually co Shentu Tian-Yin that he’d like to try to treat Shentu Ren with needles but there was no way he was going to say it in front of all those people
Xia Lei went to Shentu Tian-Yin’s side and whispered in her ear, “I have soood news to tell you I’ll tell you outside”
“Nn” Shentu Tian-Yin rew redder
Their show of intimacy made the Shentu clan even hed and said slowly, “Tian-Yin, since you are already with child, I will not object to your e Vientaine Group so that you can stay hoood wife and mother What do you think?”
Shentu Tian-Yin was about to speak when Xia Lei pulled her by the hand and said quietly in her ear, “Let uy They’re your flesh and blood after all and you still have to interact with them It doesn’t matter for me I don’t know them that well anyway”
Shentu Tian-Yin paused but she understood Xia Lei’s good intention She hesitated, then gave a slight nod
“Say what you have to say, Xia Lei Don’t whisper” Shentu Tian-Feng could not hold it in any longer and he said rudely, “We didn’t let you in to speak You should just listen”
Xia Lei laughed “I’m not mute so I’ll speak when I want I have even uys want Tian-Yin tomarried after all and our child will be born next year Her matters are my matters, so why can’t I speak?”
“You punk!” Shentu Tian-Feng would’ve liked nothing more than to kick Xia Lei out
“Let him speak!” Shentu Wei-Ye sneered, “I’d like to hear what he has to say”
Xia Lei cleared his throat and said, “Since Grauys are crossing the line”
“What nonsense are you spouting!” Shentu Yi lost his temper too and pointed at Xia Lei, “This is the Shentu clan’s home! Don’t you have the decency to be asha spoke up too “Tian-Yin, did you hear him? Do you want to marry someone like that?”
Shentu Tian-Yin did not reply and pretended not to hear She knew very hat Xia Lei was doing and she ith gratitude
