519 Who Is Better-Looking?
Translator: Lordbluefire
When the Queen heard this, she sneered. “If there was someone I want to meet, it’d be your daughter. Why would I want to meet your son-in-law? To ask him over to perform for everyone?”
Thank you readers!
When Leader Xu heard this, he coughed and looked at Shen Yuansong. “Old Master, what the Queen said makes sense too.”
Leader Rong chimed in as well, “It’s impossible to get him to give a performance, but I heard that he is good-looking.”
The Queen wore a mocking smile. “How good-looking can he be? Even more so than my unfilial son?”
Although the Queen wore a sneer and called her son unfilial, who didn’t know that she doted on her son the most?
Moreover, the crown prince was said to be extremely good-looking, being even more beautiful than women. Back when he was overseas, he had attracted many women because of his good looks.
Shen Yuansong quickly said, “How can he be compared to the crown prince? He is just a little handsome.”
Leader Xu and Leader Rong were younger and hadn’t met the crown prince before. Therefore, both of them said, “I’ve long since heard that the Queen’s son has exceptional looks. It’s a pity that we were born a few years later and hadn’t met him before. It’s really such a pity.”
The Queen looked proud and smiled to hear people complimenting her son. “If there’s a chance, you’ll definitely get to meet him. My unfilial son has finally thought it through and wants to come home.”
“That’s great news!”
“That’s excellent news!”
Even Shen Yuansong spoke up, “It really is blissful to have one’s children stay by their side.”
There was a hidden meaning behind his words.
The Queen looked at him and smiled. “We can naturally keep our sons by our side, but daughters have to be married out sooner or later. No matter how near they stay after they get married, it’s inconvenient for them to go home. Moreover, after they get married, they are the other family’s daughter-in-law. They have to give birth to that family’s children… Old Shen, so what if your daughter found herself a small-time celebrity? She’s no longer young, but doesn’t she still have to give birth to his child?”
The moment she said this, everyone else didn’t dare to say a word.
Shen Yuansong, on the other hand, lowered his gaze, looking a little displeased.
He didn’t think well of how his daughter had gotten pregnant despite her age. He felt that it would be tough on her.
He sighed. “You’re right. I’ve been persuading her to abort the child. He’s just a small celebrity…”
Leader Xu and Leader Rong, who were standing at the side, weren’t planning to say anything about the Shen Family’s private matters. However, after the Queen said her piece, they didn’t dare to remain silent anymore and started to speak up,
“That’s right, he’s just a small celebrity. It’s not as if there’s a throne to inherit, so why still do this at her age?”
“Even at our age, we won’t let our wives give birth anymore, let alone your daughter.”
Shen Yuansong took the opportunity to complain. “It’s such a pity that my daughter is devoted to my son-in-law and is bent on giving birth to the child. There’s nothing I can do about it. Sigh!”
His complaint was him lowering his stance in another way.
The Queen understood what he meant and her lips curled. She then raised her chin and said, “Old Shen, you’re just too soft-hearted and give in to your daughter too much. If I were you, I’d have gotten the family doctor to abort the child.”
Shen Yuansong lowered his head. “My daughter didn’t grow up by my side, so I can’t be too anxious.”
The Queen sneered. “So what if she didn’t? If she’s your daughter and you’re her father, she has to listen to you. Moreover, is such a poor guy worth your daughter risking her life like this? Why? Does he want a son? Your granddaughter seems quite outstanding, so she shouldn’t be despised, right?”
Shen Yuansong immediately said, “She isn’t.”
“Then what’s the problem?” As the Queen spoke, she suddenly smiled. “But after what you’ve said, I really want to see what your son-in-law looks like. To think that he has bewitched your daughter till she has become so muddle-headed.”
The Queen wore an expression as if she was waiting to watch a good show.
In the room, only Old Master Bai didn’t say a word.
He looked at Shen Yuansong, then at the Queen, feeling extremely unbearable for keeping something bottled up inside!
This feeling of being the only one to know something made his heart feel extremely itchy.
After he heard the Queen’s words, he couldn’t help but twitch his lips, having a strong urge to shout out, “Queen, that small celebrity is your son–!”
However, he didn’t dare to say that.
He was afraid that Boss Jing would give him a harsh beating.
Old Master Bai held it in until his face flushed, and this attracted Old Shen’s attention.
Shen Yuansong asked, “Old Bai, what’s the matter with you?’
The others also looked at Old Master Bai.
The Queen joked, “Speaking of that, ever since we came into this room, Old Bai seemed to not have said a word. Do you not want to say a word to this old lady after you’ve gotten on my unfilial son’s side?”
Old Master Bai. ”
He immediately waved his hand and said, “Queen, how is that possible?! It’s just that, it’s just that... I’ve met Old Shen’s son-in-law before.”
When he said this, everyone looked over.
“Oh?” the Queen said indifferently. “Does he really have such exceptional looks? Just like a vixen, being able to bewitch others?”
Old Master Bai.
His lips twitched. He didn’t dare to say bad things about Boss Jing like Leader Xu and Leader Rong had done. So, he only coughed and said, “Actually, I’m a fan of Old Shen’s son-in-law.”
The others. “?”
Old Master Bai then said, “Mmm, that’s right. That’s why I won’t say anything further. As for whether he looks good or not, the Queen will find out after seeing him.”
The others.
Everyone kept having the feeling that there were hidden meanings behind Old Master Bai’s words!
However, the Queen raised her brows. “Why? Is he really very good-looking? More so than my son?”
Old Master Bai commented, Hmmm, they are on par.”
However, the Queen let out a cold sneer, not really believing him. “It’s not that I’m trying to boast, but to date, I haven’t met anyone who is better-looking than my son, regardless of male or female. Now that you’ve said this, I’ve gotten interested. Is he here?”
Shen Yuansong also looked toward the door.
The butler looked downstairs and saw someone pulling Jing Zhen upstairs. He was putting up a struggle but was still dragged over. The butler immediately smiled and said, “He’s coming, he’s coming!”
As the butler said this, he pushed the door open..
