Shen Hui’s thoughts flew far away. She thought of when she was young, Shen Qiang and Shen Ya had already gotten married and moved out early. They were afraid that her mother would ask them for money. Her mother woke up early and went to bed late every day just to earn money.
However, Shen Qiang was like a scoundrel. He would appear on time every day at mealtime. Although Shen Ran had some complaints in her heart, he was still her elder brother, so she couldn’t say anything.
However, Shen Qiang was getting more and more unreasonable. Every time he would secretly take away the things in the house, he even gave the new toys that she bought to Shen Rou without her consent. If she didn’t want to, all she got in return was a beating.
She remembered the worst incident was when her grandmother and mother were not at home. In order to not let Shen Qiang take the things away, Shen Qiang directly beat her up and she was sent to the hospital. After Shen Ran came back and found out, she discussed it with her grandmother, and she broke off all relations with Shen Qiang.
During that period, Shen Qiang often came to cause trouble. Shen Ran took her and her grandmother out to hide for some time and waited for the disturbance to end.
“Jing Heng, why don’t we find a place to move out earlier? This house is going to be demolished anyway.” Shen Hui’s thoughts returned. She could move out like her mother, so Shen Qiang and the others would not be able to find her.
“Isn’t it a little too urgent?” Jing Heng frowned. He hadn’t made any arrangements yet.
“It is a little urgent, but we can go and take a look first. I have to go to work the day after tomorrow, but I can still go and take a look at the houses in these two days. Now, there are deluxe apartments that we can move in straight away. Although it’s a little expensive, the demolition money should be enough,” Shen Hui began to calculate in her heart, thinking that this was the second time she had been disturbed early in the morning, she would rather spend more money.
Although Shen Hui didn’t say it, Jing Heng could still see the fear on Shen Hui’s face. It seemed that Shen Qiang had given Shen Hui too much trauma since she was young, so this time, when Shen Qiang came to the house to cause trouble, the first thing that came to Shen Hui’s mind was to escape.
“Okay, you pack up first. I’ll go make breakfast. When the time comes, we’ll go out and look at the houses.”
“Will it take up too much of your time? Are you going to work today?” Only then did Shen Hui realize that because of her willfulness, she had forgotten that Jing Heng still had to go to work today.
“It’s fine. You go and clean up. I’ll apply for two days’ leave from the construction site. I won’t be at ease leaving you alone at home for the next two days.”
“Jing Heng, you’re so nice.” Shen Hui’s eyes suddenly became moist. Ever since Shen Ran passed away, Jing Heng had been the person who was the nicest to her. He always looked out for her, and he always protected her behind his back no matter what happened.
Jing Heng’s body stiffened. He reached out and pulled Shen Hui in front of him. He gently kissed her forehead. “Silly, you’re my wife. If I’m not nice to you, who am I nice to?”
Shen Hui felt like she was floating in the air. It was really easy for a person to become infatuated when someone with such a handsome face said something like that. How could he radiate charm at any time and place?
Jing Heng pushed Shen Hui back to her room to pack up. Jing Heng went to the kitchen. He looked around the inner room and then dialed a familiar number. The call was picked up quickly.
“It’s me.”
“Master Jing? Master Jing! Where have you been all this time? Don’t you know that the company is about to explode? The people on the board of directors are even more restless. I was bombarded with phone calls, and they kept asking me where on Earth have you been?”
Jing Heng hurriedly put the phone away so that he wouldn’t be shocked by the voice on the other end of the phone..
