Chapter 603: Face-smacking!
Translator: Lord bluefire
In the banquet hall.
Shen Ruojing, though appearing to deliberately say things to provoke Shen Jiayi, was actually keeping her gaze in the direction of the entrance, watching happily as her senior brothers succeeded.
After that, she simply couldn’t be bothered to keep pretending.
She hadn’t intended to make a scene here in the first place but had just gone with the flow.
When the butler brought a few people from the Doom organization to keep an eye on her, she intentionally attracted a lot of attention to make the switch at the entrance smoother.
Fortunately, the group of senior brothers from Valor Gate were all experts.
Although they didn’t possess the same talent as their junior sister Shen Ruojing, they were more diligent in learning and practicing, capable of facing ten opponents with ease.
So when they swarmed in, the people from the Doom organization couldn’t even react, let alone break through.
And when they dispersed, the crowd didn’t notice the kidnapped Song Chen amidst the commotion.
As for Chu Cichen, he wore the torn clothes from Song Chen, looking so disheveled that it was hard for anyone to imagine that the person had been swapped in such a short time.
At this moment, Shen Ruojing decided not to linger anymore. She then nodded to the butler. “Alright, I’ll leave now.”
The people around her were still trying to persuade her, thinking that she was in the wrong. Hence, they didn’t expect Shen Ruojing to actually turn and walk toward the exit, leaving everyone dumbfounded and unsure of the situation.
Shen Jiayi was also stunned, but she chose to follow her.
She had previously claimed that Chu Cichen liked her and pursued her, but his cold attitude later on made her feel like a joke. Now, seizing this opportunity, she wanted to regain some dignity.
So, Shen Jiayi directly stopped her. “You must apologize to me and Mr. Chu before you can leave. My wedding is not a place for you to come and go as you please!”
Shen Ruojing. “?”
A question mark slowly crossed her mind. This Shen Jiayi must be crazy.
Shen Ruojing then crossed her arm and said, “You had personally sent me an invitation and asked me, your cousin, to attend your wedding. After that, I came and you were trying to drive me away. But now that I want to leave, you won’t let me? What nonsense is this?”
Shen Jiayi, however, was very arrogant. “I don’t care. You disrupted the atmosphere of the entire wedding. Everyone came here to send blessings, but you caused a scene, ruining my interest in holding the wedding. You must take responsibility for this.”
Shen Ruojing.
Shen Jiayi then looked at Matriarch Chu and Chu Cimo. “And to them too. Shen Ruojing, you have to explain to them today and make Matriarch Chu and my second brother accept me. You can’t be so mean and make my position as Mrs.
Chu so passive!’
Shen Ruojing found Shen Jiayi’s words baffling. “If you want to gain others’ approval, why not just work hard yourself? What does it have to do with me?’
Shen Jiayi, now in a powerful position, responded with the authority of a lady of the house, “Naturally, it has to do with you. Who knows what methods you used or how much you badmouthed me in front of them? Today, we have to clear things up!’
After saying that, Shen Jiayi looked directly at Matriarch Chu. “Aunt…no, I mean, Mom, don’t believe what she said. I am truly devoted to Mr. Chu. I know you’ve been so tolerant of Shen Ruojing because of the three children, but don’t worry, I will bear you even more grandchildren in the future. Not just three, but six! You don’t have to sacrifice yourself for the sake of the children.
“As for her three children, the Shen family is huge and more than enough for them to inherit. Besides, are they not coming to Shen Manor with her? Just let her take them away! ‘
Matriarch Chu.
She frowned and explained, “Jingjing has never spoken about you.”
Shen Ruojing certainly had never mentioned her. In fact, she had almost forgotten about the people from the second branch, but they suddenly popped up, causing trouble.
Unfortunately, Shen Jiayi didn’t believe it and just sneered, “Mom, why are you still protecting this vixen? I will be your daughter-in-law in the future, so you can’t be too biased toward her!”
Matriarch Chu frowned. “Isn’t it people like you who constantly call others ‘vixen’ who are more ill-mannered? I told you, I only recognize Jingjing as my daughter-in-law. There’s no one else!”
Upon hearing this, Shen Jiayi’s face turned cold. “I originally thought you were deceived by her, but I didn’t expect you to be so stubborn and unyielding. If that’s the case, then I won’t meddle in the relationship between you and your son! Matriarch Chu, I’m being polite by calling you ‘Mom’, but from today on, I’ll be the Matriarch of the Chu family! If you ever want to return home, you’ll have to ask for my permission. And as for her three children… they’re only five years old now, and you’ve already spoiled them so much. Who knows if they’ll even make it to adulthood? The future is uncertain!”
Matriarch Chu didn’t mind her cursing adults, but when she started cursing the children, Matriarch Chu couldn’t hold back any longer. She then stepped forward and slapped Shen Jiayi across the face!
Shen Jiayi was stunned, and at that moment, she saw Chu Cichen approaching.
Shen Jiayi immediately burst into tears. “Mom, what are you doing? I’m just trying to get you and Cichen to reconcile. After all, you are mother and son! Even if you disagree, how could you hit me?”
After saying this, she threw herself at Chu Cichen. “Cichen, you must stand up for me!’
She didn’t notice that Chu Cichen had sidestepped, not allowing her to fall into his arms..
