Chapter 82: The Crisis of the Shen Family

Shen You looked at the strange interaction between the two and did not know what had happened. But at the moment, there was something that she was more concerned about.

She asked Zhu Ge, “Zhu Ge, do you know where Shen Jiao is recently?”

When Zhu Ge heard Shen You’s question, he did not show a puzzled expression. Instead, he sighed.

Shen You’s expression became even more strange. “You know, right?”

Zhu Ge walked to Shen You’s bedside and putting down the small cakes before saying, “I heard it from my family.”

“Your father lost a lot of money when his investment failed this time,” Zhu Ge continued. “Originally, he wanted to rely on you and Zhao Nan to get engaged and transfer some funds from the Zhao family.”

Zhu Ge continued speaking without looking closely at Shen You’s expression.

“As you and Zhao Nan refused to cooperate, and your father’s application for a loan from the bank wasn’t approved…” Zhu Ge said and sighed.

“I thought the Shen family would be finished this time. But this Chen Shen jumped out and said he wanted to get engaged to Shen Jiao, and he was willing to lend your father a sum of money,” Zhu Ge said and couldn’t help pat his thigh.

Shen You’s face darkened even more when she heard Zhu Ge’s words.

“Initially, your father felt that this wasn’t proper, so he didn’t agree,” Zhu Ge said with some indignation in his tone.

Then, he tilted his head in confusion and looked at Shen You. “Who knew that two days later, Shen Jiao came out and said that she agreed to be engaged to Chen Shen!”

Zhu Ge saw that Shen You’s expression was getting uglier and uglier, and he was stunned. “Well, Idol, I only heard all these…”

Shen You nodded and continued to ask, “Anything else?”

Zhu Ge thought for a moment. “Ever since Shen Jiao got engaged to that Chen Shen, she hasn’t been to school.”

“I heard that Chen Shen has also moved into the Shen family…” Zhu Ge continued to add.

“What?” Shen You exclaimed, and she almost jumped up from the bed.

Zhu Ge hurriedly pressed on Shen You’s shoulder. “Don’t get agitated! Don’t get agitated!”

Shen You sat on the hospital bed, slowly adjusting her breathing.

That’s right! Why should I get agitated! What did the Shen family’s matter have to do with me? But, this Chen Shen…

Shen You’s expression became even stranger.

Zhu Ge looked at Shen You’s appearance and was a little worried. “Idol, are you really alright?”

Shen You composed herself and said, “I’m fine!”

Then, Shen You grabbed Zhu Ge’s arm and said, “Zhu Ge, I have something to ask of you!”

“What is it?” Zhu Ge looked at Shen You’s serious look and immediately became serious.

“Can you call my eldest brother over?” Shen You begged.

“Your eldest brother? Shen Po?” Zhu Ge asked in confusion.

“Yes! Can I?” Shen You asked again.

Zhu Ge thought for a moment. “No problem! I’ll bring him over tomorrow!”

With Zhu Ge’s promise, Shen You was finally relieved.

It was not Shen You’s fault for making such a fuss! Shen You had some impression of this Chen Shen!

On the surface, this man and Shen Hao were as close as brothers.

However, in her previous life, Shen You deeply remembered how this man had instigated her to betray the Shen family and help him obtain everything that belonged to the Shen family!

At that time, Shen You was foolish. All she wanted was to obtain a place in the Shen family.

However, Shen Jiao was different! Shen You did not know what she was thinking, but she really did not want anything to happen to the Shen family!

Shen You secretly took a deep breath to calm herself down. Perhaps, everything could still be salvaged. It was not as serious as she had thought!

When Xie Xiao returned to the ward, she realized that Zhu Ge had not left yet. He was still chatting enthusiastically with Shen You.

She pouted and walked to the sofa at the side, not saying a word.

Shen You looked at Xie Xiao’s strange appearance. She tugged at Zhu Ge’s hand and asked silently, “What’s wrong?”

Zhu Ge scratched the back of his head and said innocently, “I don’t know!”

Shen You could not help but roll her eyes. This Zhu Ge usually looked quite smart, but whenever he met Xie Xiao, he seemed to have turned into a fool!

Shen You thought that it was better to ask Xie Xiao personally.

She said to Zhu Ge, “It’s getting late! You should go back first!”

Zhu Ge stood up and said, “Xie Xiao, do you want me to send you back?”

Xie Xiao rolled his eyes and ignored Zhu Ge.

Zhu Ge was rejected and could only look at Shen You awkwardly.

Shen You curled her lips into a smile and waved at Zhu Ge. “You should go back first! Oh yes, don’t forget what you have promised me!”

Zhu Ge replied and took another look at Xie Xiao before leaving. Shen You looked at his pitiful appearance and found it funny.
