Venomous Empress Reborn

623 A Farce (4)
“Why would I blame you?” Old Madam Shen sighed, and her tone suddenly became sharp. “It’s all Third Miss’s fault. She learned all these nasty tricks from that b*tch, Concubine Wan!” She then took her anger out on Chen Ruoqiu, “If you were more careful, Third Miss wouldn’t have a chance to replace Yue.”

Chen Ruoqiu was already in a fit of anger. At this moment, after being reprimanded by Old Madam Shen, she retorted impulsively, “Mother, how can you blame me? I didn’t expect Third Miss to have a scheming mind. Mother, you’re too unreasonable to blame me for this.”

“You are calling me unreasonable?” Old Madam Shen was furious.

Chen Ruoqiu was about to talk back when Shen Wan shouted at her, “Enough!” She was slightly stunned. All these years, Shen Wan had never spoken harshly to her, and this was the first time he had shouted at her. Shen Wan said, “Yue, come with me.”

Shen Yue nodded.

Chang Zaiqing saw this scene and an imperceptible smile appeared on her lips.

Shen Yue followed Shen Wan back to his room. Shen Wan had his back to her and did not speak. Shen Yue thought that Shen Wan was unhappy about the Wang family. Thinking about the attitude of the Wang family today and how Shen Dongling might have won the Wang family’s favor, Shen Yue was extremely dissatisfied. She said, “Father, the Wang family is outrageous. They clearly have no respect for you. If Third Sister uses my identity to live, what should I do? Third Sister stole my marriage and now she wants to snatch my identity. Father, you can’t let her have her way.”

Perhaps because she had lied too much, Shen Yue actually believed that this matter was all caused by Shen Dongling, and that she was schemed by her.

“She stole your marriage?” Without turning around, Shen Wan asked slowly.

Shen Yue did not notice anything wrong with Shen Wan’s tone and nodded. “Yes!”

A slap landed on Shen Yue’s face.

Chen Ruoqiu, who had just followed them into the room, saw this scene. She exclaimed, “Yue”, went forward to hug Shen Yue, and roared at Shen Wan, “What are you doing?”

“What am I doing?” Shen Wan laughed instead of getting angry. “Why don’t you ask your good daughter what she did?”

As Shen Yue covered her face, her body couldn’t help but tremble. Although the slap mark on her face hurt, it couldn’t compare to the fear in her heart.

“Yue, are you telling me that you don’t know anything about this? Is it really Shen Dongling who set you up and snatched your marriage? Do you really think you can fool everyone? You asked Shen Dongling to marry in your place because you only want to marry Prince Ding. Have you ever thought about what will happen to your father if you offend the Wang family? To have a smart daughter like you, I’m really blessed!!!”

Shen Wan was usually gentle and calm, and he had always doted on Shen Yue. This was the first time he had shown such a ferocious expression to Shen Yue.

Chen Ruoqiu looked at Shen Yue in her arms with a trembling body and asked, “Yue, is what your father said true?”

“I-I just want freedom,” Shen Yue muttered in fear. Suddenly, she thought of something and looked up. “But Shen Dongling also led me astray. She must have said something to sow discord. Otherwise, why is the Wang family’s attitude towards us so cold? It’s all because of that b*tch!”

“Shut up!” The more Shen Wan listened, the angrier he became. “You’re stupid and you’re still blaming others. Have you read all your books?”

When Chen Ruoqiu heard Shen Yue admitting that she was the one who wanted to swap with Shen Dongling, she closed her eyes in despair. She did not expect Shen Yue to be so bold as to do this. However, Shen Yue was after all her own flesh and blood and had been carefully raised by her. Chen Ruoqiu only had this one daughter. When she heard Shen Wan shouting at Shen Yue, she could not help but speak up for her, “Although Yue is in the wrong, she’s not entirely to blame. I think Yue is right. Shen Dongling obviously said something to deliberately lead Yue astray. I’m afraid this was all carefully planned by Shen Dongling.”
