Chapter 39: Taking a Detour
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“I was wrong, Mother. I was really wrong.”
Shen Xue was really afraid of her mother, and she kept lowering her head to admit her mistake.
Song Li was even more displeased when she saw Shen Xue like this, and she forcefully poked Shen Xue’s head again.
“Madam, this is the hospital…”
“I’m sorry, this child is too insensible.”
Some of the nurses who could not stand it were about to go forward to persuade her, but they were interrupted by Song Li with a smile.
The nurse was instantly speechless. What kind of woman was this? She bullied the child in public and even blamed the child?
“Let’s go.”
Song Li reached out and pulled Shen Xue away, completely ignoring the discussions and gazes of the people around them.
“Millie, next time you see Shen Xue and her mother, you must take a detour, understand?”
Once they got into the car, Shen Nan warned Emily.
Shen Xue was still young after all. No matter how bad her intentions were, she was still a child.
However, Shen Xue’s mother was not a good person. Shen Nan did not like Song Li very much.
Emily nodded obediently.
When she saw the smile on the auntie’s face, Emily felt a chill run down her spine. It made her very uncomfortable.
The butler frowned uneasily. It seemed like it was necessary to tell Shen Yan about this matter.
Now that Song Li was involved, it was different. After all, Song Li had no bottom line. She could also lay her hands on children.
Emily was a little scared. Shen Xue’s appearance just now was so scary. She still remembered that when she first saw Shen Xue, she thought that she was a pretty sister. However, when she looked at Shen Xue just now, she felt that she was not good-looking at all.
“Millie, were you scared just now?”
Shen Nan had been paying attention to Emily’s condition. She was a little too quiet today.
“No, I just feel that Sister Shen Xue is different from what I saw before.”
Emily remembered that when she first saw Shen Xue, Shen Xue had kindly said that she wanted to bring her along to play. However, she did not know why she would treat her like that later on?
“People are different from each other.”
In the past, Shen Xue was the only girl in the Shen family, so he always liked to stay by Shen Xue’s side. He felt that whatever Shen Xue said was right, but Shen Xue used him, causing him to be punished by his grandfather.
However, as long as Shen Xue stood up and spoke up for him instead of pushing everything onto him, he might not have felt so bad.
Although Shen Xu was in school, he had also called to warn him. He finally understood how stupid he was before. He was actually so easily taken advantage of by Shen Xue.
Emily looked at Shen Nan with some confusion. Shen Nan smiled and reached out to rub Emily’s hair.
“Don’t think too much. Just be yourself.”
The butler coughed lightly. It was unknown who Shen Nan had learned from to speak in such an adult tone.
Emily felt that her relationship with Shen Nan had become closer. After all, they were of the same age, so they naturally had more topics to talk about. Very quickly, she forgot that she was unhappy just now.
The two of them got off the car while chatting and laughing. Just as they entered the living room, they saw Shen Yu sitting alone on the living room sofa, reading a book.
Emily ran to Shen Yu excitedly.
“Brother, you’re back. How was the examination? What did the doctor say?”
“You’ve asked so many questions in a row. Which one do you think I should answer first?”
Shen Yu looked at Emily and spoke with a smile.
Emily frowned and then looked at Shen Yu very seriously.
“Then answer them one by one.”
“You little heartless. I was just protecting you, but you threw me away when you saw Fifth Brother.”
Shen Nan walked in front of Emily and Shen Yu in a bad mood and complained.
“What happened?”
Shen Yu immediately caught the main point that Shen Nan was talking about. Protecting?
“Nothing, it’s just that when Millie accompanied me to the hospital, she met Shen Xue and her mother.”
Shen Nan recounted what had happened at the hospital. Shen Yu’s expression was gloomy as he sized up Emily.
“Emi, are you scared?”
Emily hurriedly shook her head. “Sixth Brother has been protecting me just now. I’m fine.”
Shen Yu heaved a sigh of relief, but his tightly knitted brows did not relax.
Emily stretched out her hand, wanting to unfurl Shen Yu’s tightly knitted brows.
“Brother, don’t worry. I’m very brave.”
Emily lowered her head and muttered, “After Mom and Dad left, I’ve never been afraid of living alone at home.”
In fact, she was afraid at the beginning, but she gradually got used to it. She was the only one left.
Shen Yu rubbed Emily’s hair and said softly, “You definitely won’t be alone at home now.”
Emily smiled and nodded.
That’s right, she was very happy in the Shen family now. She no longer had to worry about being alone.
“Oh right, Brother, what did the doctor say when you went to the hospital? Is there anything wrong with your body?”
Emily looked at Shen Yu with a worried expression.
She felt that it was strange. She had heard the servants of the Shen family talking about how Shen Yu had never spoken at home in the past. He ignored everyone except for his grandfather. However, ever since she came to the Shen family, Shen Yu had become fond of smiling and talking.
