Chapter 76.2

Translator: Hua Editor: Bamboozled?

In the past two years, other people in the family, including her second uncle, had put away their disdain and began to flatter Shen Yijin. Although Yang Nianjiao was no longer as strict as the years she “disciplined” this eldest grandson of the Shen family, she was also not afraid to boldly speak in front of him.

——Even if she had never been called a mother, she also didn’t care about this extra son. But as long as Shen Yijin still recognized his father and his grandfather and this Shen family, then she would always be his mother!

Her deliberate mentioning at this moment was more or less to disturb the relationship of these two people in front of her who were walking into the door hand in hand.

Unexpectedly, when she finished saying this, Jing Xun, who looked much more innocent than Shen Yijin, suddenly said, “Shen Bohan is indeed my junior. That’s why sir and I are predetermined by fate.”

Obviously, the latter sentence was said to Shen Yijin.

‘Sir’ should be specifically referring to Shen Yijin, and after finishing speaking, the two of them also looked at each other and smiled. Obviously, they both very much approved of the ‘predestined by fate’ statement.

Yang Nianjiao: “……”

Hearing the meaning behind Yan Jingxun’s words, Yang Nianjiao didn’t even notice the change of Shen Yijin’s expression and his smile.

At this moment, all she was thinking about was that Yan Jingxun had been with her son for a while, now how could he…dismiss Ah Han as a junior with one sentence? !

She didn’t mention the previous incident between Yan Jingxun and Ah Han just now, for the sake of Shen Yijin’s face, furthermore she didn’t want to touch this bad thing.

But now he wanted to deny Ah Han’s existence? Did he know that Ah Han was still in the hospital because of him!

The more she thought about it, the more indignant she felt. Yang Nianjiao couldn’t help but deliberately said: “You two young couples are so sweet, Ah Han has been sick and living in the hospital recently, auntie has to take care of your little brother at the hospital. Ah Jin, you should go to see Ah Han when you are free, and Jing Xun, Ah Han used to like you so much. He must be very happy if you went.”

Jing Xun looked at the woman with a slim figure and delicate make up in front of him, he couldn’t help feeling that this aunt Yang’s mouth was really sharp.

These two short sentences not only express sympathy toward Er Shao, but also satirize Shen Yijin for not talking about brotherhood and not visiting his brother at the hospital.

Her words were also full of innuendos, hinting at his previous relationship with Er Shao.

She really killed three birds with one stone.

This was indeed the first time Jing Xun officially met Shen Yijin’s stepmother.

Neither the scum gong nor his mother showed up at the last family banquet. He heard that it was due to Er Shao’s illness.

Later, on Grandpa Shen’s birthday, there were too many matters to handle, so no one specially introduced them.

But it didn’t matter even if they hadn’t formally met each other. In any case, the relationship between sir and this stepmother was not good… sir had left home when he was a child to live abroad all by himself, which says alot about their relationship.

Jing Xun didn’t know much about the Shen family’s affairs, but he also knew that aunt Yang had done a lot of things against sir in order to fight for the interests of the scum gong in the Shen family.

In the simplest terms, when he saw this Mrs. Yang up close for the first time, surprisingly, he could see at a glance that the brows and eyebrows of the scum gong were exactly the same as hers.

But the outside world once rumored that Shen Bohan’s appearance was more like Master Shen, instead sir’s appearance followed his mother, he didn’t look like a person from the Shen family…

It doesn’t matter who you look like, nor is there anything wrong with looking like your mother.

——Shen Yijin had never corrected these kinds of rumors, presumably because he didn’t care.

But the reason for the emergence of this rumor made people unable to stop thinking deeply about it…If from a very young age, someone began to say that Er Shao looked more like a child of the Shen family than Da Shao, combined with the fact that Shen Yijin didn’t have his biological mother’s protection at that time, plus his biased father…

In that case, as long as old man Shen was a little muddle headed, sir’s life in the Shen house when he was a child would not be easy.

To put it lightly, he would be excluded and pushed aside. To put it more severely, he might be suppressed or even abandoned.

And this was just one of the traps laid by this aunt Yang.

With these thoughts, Jing Xun really wanted to stomp his feet in anger.

He had no idea what Shen Yijin had gone through along the way to develop his current character. But getting a glimpse of these trivial things in the family, how could he not know what kind of hardships sir had suffered as a child!

He originally felt very distressed for Shen Yijin. Facing sarcasm and various accusations from Mrs. Yang, Jing Xun, who was alway polite and gentle, could hardly maintain his composure.

He couldn’t help saying: “Auntie, you have misunderstood. Although Shen Bohan is my junior, you should have heard of my previous relationship with him. Our relationship is not good. Those friends of his still wanted to see me jump off the building. If it wasn’t for sir, I would have…so don’t blame him for not going to see his little brother. We just take into consideration that he might not want to see us.”

After hearing this Yang Nianjiao immediately raised her voice: “Say what? It’s Ah Han who…”

Seeing Mrs. Yang was about to say something in rebuttal, Jing Xun continued to strike first: “Right now, we should let little brother recover from his illness first. It is more important to maintain good health than anything else. Our grievances are trivial matters, just like children fighting. Auntie, you shouldn’t take it seriously.”

“……”

All the good and bad words were all said by Jing Xun. Yang Nianjiao couldn’t say a word of sarcasm in return.

She knew everything as clear as a mirror in her heart that the relationship between Shen Yijin and Shen Bohan had never been close, let alone brothers, they were even more estranged than strangers.

But in the face of familial affection, Shen Yijin not visiting his sick brother was inexcusable!

She was in the right!

But after Jing Xun’s clarification, it turned into Shen Yijin didn’t see his brother out of good intentions–he saved the bullied senior from his younger brother’s hands, and they gradually developed tender feelings for each other after spending a long time together.

He didn’t go to see his brother out of fear that it would stimulate his condition.

Yang Nianjiao didn’t expect that this young man with warm brows and eyes would be so skillful with his tongue!

She had underestimated him.

But after being refuted, Yang Nianjiao couldn’t just swallow this anger.

In recent years, as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Shen family, she was still the one favored by her husband, and was respected everywhere.

She used to have a fiery temper and was known as a small chili pepper.

After marrying into the Shen family, she dared to do and say anything.

She wanted to directly scold Yan Jingxun for his artful and flirtatious nature, but before she could flare up and curse him out, Shen Yijin suddenly raised his gaze and gave her an unexpected look.

The indifferent eyes carried an inexplicable chill even in summer.

And the absolute partiality in this glance was just too obvious…..

Just one glance made Yang Nianjiao shrink her neck.

What she wanted to say could no longer be voiced out.

… Although she was not afraid of Shen Yijin, and didn’t need to flatter him, she had to think clearly before offending him.

After all, she watched him grow up and change step by step. Yang Nianjiao knew very well that if this person really got angry… he wouldn’t be soft-hearted in the slightest.

This was also the reason why Yang Nianjiao only prepared silently behind the scenes, and on the surface she always greeted Shen Yijin with a smiling face.

No one was stupid enough to openly offend Shen Yijin without preparation.

More importantly, after she calmed down a little bit, she suddenly realized that what Yan Jingxun said was true!

Although the jumping video was completely deleted by a hacker, it did happen after all, and was widely circulated, even the old man knew it!

…Today, when the old man called her over, he also reminded her to get rid of Shen Bohan’s past entanglement with Yan Jingxun, persuade Shen Bohan not to mention it again, and bury it completely. No outsiders were allowed to mention it again.…

Therefore Yang Nianjiao couldn’t refute what the young man said, and she couldn’t make things worse!

The only thing she could do was to swallow her anger, watch Shen Yijin saying goodbye to her, and watch the youth who had just retorted her without spitting dirty words being taken upstairs by Shen Yijin…!

Yang Nianjiao also felt that she was about to be like her son, who was so angry that he vomited blood!

She took a deep breath and told herself that there was no need to get angry. She could deal with Yan Jingxun whenever she wanted to.

If it hadn’t been for Shen Yijin protection, to this man who had cruelly harmed her son, she would have…

She couldn’t understand!

What is the charm of Yan Jingxun? He not only made Shen Yijin, who had no emotions whatsoever, favor him, but also made her son so fixated on him, and be tortured to death by this feeling!

Is it his appearance?

Or is it his glib tongue?!

…He’s just a man who hasn’t even graduated from college. Shen Yijin and her son actually went for him at the same time…

Yang Nian Jiao tightly clenched her fist, she couldn’t suppress her puzzlement and unwillingness, her forehead almost burst with blue veins.

At this time, the cell phone she had previously placed on the small coffee table rang.

It was a WeChat message notification. Yang Nianjiao took a deep breath and walked over to pick up the phone. She unlocked the screen, and saw the message Qi Zeming had just sent, saying that he found it.

…She sent him to investigate the information of the expert recently hired by Yiwei.

Qi Zeming had planted two ‘spies’ inside Yiwei, but those two people were only responsible for transmitting some management decision-making information. They could not get the real technical research data, and dared not to bring it out.

What they could do was actually to provide Yiwei’s latest development direction and determine the expert’s information.

But this was enough.

At the thought that she still had a chance, and could pull the rug to bring Shen Yijin down, Yang Nianjiao’s mood was at ease.

She had just checked some information and contacted some partners to explain the situation. She believed that the funding was not a problem.

No matter what, she had to dig up that expert, and research the product before Shen Yijin…

A second later, Qi Zeming sent two photos over.

…The youth in the photo had warm eyebrows, red lips and white teeth. In one photo, he was wearing a simple casual T-shirt, and the other he was wearing a white lab coat.

They were all secretly photographed.

But no matter what kind of clothes he was wearing, it wasn’t difficult to recognize him. He was…

At the same time, Qi Zeming’s phone call came over. It seemed that he really couldn’t wait and had no time to report on WeChat. Speaking on the phone, his tone was full of shock and disbelief: “I’ve confirmed it several times. That’s right, the latest expert Yiwei hired was Yan Jingxun! Everyone in the company knew that he’s young master Jin’s wife!”

Yang Nianjiao, who couldn’t recover her senses yet: “…You mean…”

Qi Zeming yelled out of control on the other side of the phone, “The expert! The expert is Yan Jingxun who makes Ah Han unable to let him go no matter what!”
