The Crippled Boss Loves Me

Chapter 266: Father’s Soup

“I’m talking to Mr. Shen. When was it your turn to interrupt our conversation?” Shen Hanxing looked at Qiao Wei with disdain. “You’re a mistress who has risen to power, how dare you criticize me?” She didn’t make a move this time, she didn’t even say much, but the contempt and genuine disdain in her eyes were more lethal than anything else.

Qiao Wei’s face alternated between green and white, and the anger in her eyes almost couldn’t be controlled. She clenched her teeth tightly to prevent herself from losing her composure on the spot. “Hanxing...” her voice trembled, and she forced a laugh. She said, “I just don’t want you to be estranged from your father. How long can a person live? We shouldn’t waste our time on resentment, right?”

“In this world, anyone has the right to say this to me, but you don’t have the right.” Shen Hanxing gracefully put down her chopsticks. Although her brows and eyes were smiling, her gaze when she looked over was very cold. She was like a high and mighty queen with an icy gaze and a look of disdain. She looked at Qiao Wei as if she was looking at some insignificant dirty thing.

Shen Hanxing smiled and continued, “Who do you think you are? Do you think that you can sit in Mrs. Shen’s position and talk to me as an equal? A mistress is a mistress. You will never be able to clear your name in this lifetime. In my eyes, you will always be a shameless thing.”

Qiao Wei’s entire body trembled. Under Shen Hanxing’s gaze, a strong sense of shame surged in her heart and then turned into endless hatred. She could not say a single word to refute.

“Enough.” Shen Yong’s expression had turned very sour. No matter what, Qiao Wei was his wife. “It’s fine if you don’t drink this glass of wine.” After saying that, he downed the glass of red wine in one gulp. The expression on his face could be described as dark and gloomy. He scowled and personally scooped up a bowl of soup. With a bad attitude, he placed it in front of Shen Hanxing. Then, he said in a coarse voice, “Since your stomach isn’t good, you should finish drinking the soup to warm your stomach before eating.”After pausing for a while, he added, he then added sarcastically, “In case your body doesn’t feel well and CEO Ji thinks that our Shen family didn’t treat you well.”

Shen Yong’s actions made Shen Hanxing very surprised. She raised her eyes and looked at him deeply. What was going on? Did Shen Yong change his personality? Not only did he not get angry and curse, he even took the initiative to scoop a bowl of soup for her?

Shen Yong’s actions were definitely not because he felt guilty and decided to turn over a new leaf. The reason why he could tolerate it so much must be because he wanted something. Shen Hanxing’s thoughts were a mess, and she did not say anything for a moment.

“What? Even the soup is not to your liking?” Seeing that Shen Hanxing had not taken the bowl of soup, Shen Yong’s expression became even uglier. He said coldly, “Are the coarse tea and plain meal not to your liking, Mrs. Ji?”

“Of course not.” Shen Hanxing came back to her senses. She took the bowl of soup and said with a smile, “Thank you, Mr. Shen.” She held the spoon and scooped a mouthful of soup into her mouth. It was a pity that the soup, which clearly smelled very sweet, tasted like wax to her.

Shen Hanxing lowered her eyelids and covered her eyes that were filled with complicated emotions. She finished the bowl of soup seriously.

Shen Yong’s expression became better. He pushed the food in front of Shen Hanxing and said coldly, “Eat.”

Seeing this scene, Shen Sisi was so jealous that she was about to go crazy. Shen Yong was a very chauvinistic man. He had never done any housework in this house. He had never even helped to put back the shelf that had fallen to the ground, not to mention the matter of helping to serve rice and soup to others! But now, he actually personally served Shen Hanxing soup and even made sure she ate well. What right did Shen Hanxing have to experience all these?!

......

Jealousy gnawed at Shen Sisi’s heart crazily. This was the first time that she clearly felt how important status and power were. Parental love and even love were unreliable things. Only when one had enough power and benefits and stood in a high enough position could one easily make others lower their heads and bow in submission.

Shen Sisi clenched her fists and bit the tip of her tongue. The ambition in her eyes could not be hidden. One day, she would make Shen Hanxing lower her head in front of her!

After that, the atmosphere at the dinner table was very calm. It was so calm that Shen Hanxing felt a little uncomfortable. Shen Yong’s expression was complicated and hard to distinguish. His stern face made it impossible for others to guess his thoughts. He did not make any requests to Shen Hanxing, it was as if inviting her over was really just for the family to have a meal together.

However, how was this possible?

After a while, Shen Hanxing put down her bowl and chopsticks and said indifferently, “I’m done eating.” After a pause, she simply took the initiative to ask, “What is it exactly that you want to say? I’m very busy and don’t have time to waste here.”
