Chapter 278 It's better to get rid of this relative.
Huo Jinchen's Weibo post stayed on the trending topics list for most of the day.
The kindergarten was thoroughly investigated and exposed by netizens.
The Shen family's desire to easily acquire this land has become extremely difficult.
"Damn it! The Huo family, Huo Jinchen, is it?! Is he out of his mind, or is the Huo family just trying to get a piece of the pie?!"
At this moment, Shen Yiheng, who had just returned to the Shen family, was furious.
His face looked terrible, and there were deep dark circles under his eyes.
Shen Chuan broke three ribs and was unable to get up, so he was resting in his room.
Mrs. Shen and Shen Jiaojiao stood one after the other in the corner of the living room.
"Dad, please don't be angry."
Shen Jiaojiao supported Madam Shen, her tone somewhat worried.
"It's true that my older brother and I didn't handle this well. We ran into my older sister at kindergarten... I know she dislikes me, but I never expected her to do it this way..."
"I'm sorry, Dad."
Her expression was very sad, and there were faint glimmers of tears in her eyes.
Shen Yiheng's initial rage subsided slightly when he saw Shen Jiaojiao's slightly reddened eyes.
He remained silent for a long time before sighing.
"Jiaojiao, it's not your fault. I didn't know you would encounter that rebellious girl! I wish I hadn't brought her back."
If Shen Zhaozhao hadn't returned to Haicheng, none of this would have happened.
Shen Jiaojiao will successfully get engaged and married to Huo Tingchen...
The Shen family wouldn't have to be so humble, doing favors for others, just to have such a small place in the capital.
With the Huo and Gu families' names on their side, it would be only natural for the Shen family to move from Haicheng to the capital.
Shen Yiheng was used to being a powerful figure in Haicheng, and the significant difference after arriving in the capital has kept him awake for several days.
Every time he thought about the series of chain reactions caused by Shen Zhaozhao, he couldn't help but beat his chest and stamp his feet in frustration.
"I told you we shouldn't have brought her back! She's a jinx! She ruined Jiaojiao's marriage, and now Jiaojiao is still single, even though so many talented young men in the capital are after her..."
Madam Shen looked at Shen Jiaojiao with heartache, worried that she would be disappointed in love because of Huo Tingchen.
Shen Jiaojiao forced a smile, shook her head, and remained silent.
"Let's issue a statement sometime. Shen Zhaozhao has absolutely no connection with the Shen family from now on. The Shen family is better off without this ungrateful wretch."
He then looked at Madam Shen, as if seeking her consent.
"Old Shen, let's do it your way. I'll pretend I never had this daughter. I only have one precious daughter, Jiaojiao!"
Madam Shen spoke with unwavering conviction, and held Shen Jiaojiao's hand tightly.
A surprised smile immediately bloomed on Shen Jiaojiao's face, and two lines of tears streamed down her cheeks.
"Mother……"
The mother and daughter couldn't help but hug each other and weep.
……
The Gu Family Villa.
Wu Zhao, who was watering flowers in the garden, suddenly coughed up blood.
Bright red blood dripped onto the leaves.
"Ancestor!"
"Miss!"
Wu Xingyun and Lan Yao, who were guarding nearby, were shocked.
Wu Xingyun scrambled over.
"What happened? Why are you vomiting blood? Are you feeling unwell, or has someone attacked you?!"
Lan Yao rushed into the house with a heavy heart.
“Miss, I’ll have Jin Yao come back right away. Mr. Wu, please help Miss in.”
Wu Zhao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Wu Xingyun with amusement.
He reached out his hand, hesitant to touch her, as if she were a fragile piece of glass that would shatter at the slightest touch.
"I'm fine, don't make such a fuss."
But Wu Xingyun was not reassured by this; instead, he pointed tremblingly at her hair.
"But if nothing's wrong, why has your hair changed, Ancestor...?!"
Ok?
Wu Zhao glanced down and noticed that the ends of her long hair, which fell to her chest, shimmered with a silvery light.
"It's just that the kinship ties were severed and this caused a backlash."
In fact, Wu Zhao had a premonition about this a long time ago, but he didn't expect it to come so suddenly.
She touched her hair, then smiled at the somewhat bewildered Wu Xingyun.
"It'll be fine in a minute, don't worry."
Before Wu Xingyun could speak, Gu Chen's low, hoarse voice came from behind him.
"Zhao Zhao!"
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept past behind him, and Wu Zhao felt himself being lifted up around the waist.
Gu Chen's embrace was broad and warm, carrying a faint aroma of coffee.
"You, what are you doing?"
She clutched at Gu Chen's shirt, remaining motionless in his arms.
The surging purple energy tightly bound her to Gu Chen's body, and the warm spiritual power soothed her somewhat aching body.
"That's ridiculous! Why didn't you say you were sick?"
"Don't move around. I'll take you back to your room to rest. Jin Yao is on his way back. He'll take a look at you when he gets back."
The arms holding her were wrapped tightly, making Wu Zhao feel a little uncomfortable and want to move.
Gu Chen lowered his gaze and glanced at her, his eyes calm and indifferent.
This made Wu Zhao hesitant to move again.
Wu Xingyun, standing beside him, kept a close eye on Wu Zhao.
"What backlash could have made you like this? Don't scare me, Ancestor. I'll call my sister and brother right now. You just be a good girl and go upstairs to rest."
As he spoke, he pulled out his phone, and Wu Zhao didn't even have time to stop him.
Gu Chen could only carefully escort him into the room, where the round little animal was sleeping soundly on its back with its belly flat on the bed.
"You rest first, I'll have Lan Yao wait for Jin Yao."
Gu Chen subtly pulled the blanket over Wu Zhao, causing Nar, who was sleeping on the bed, to roll onto the floor.
"Ouch."
It was just in time that it didn't fall onto the carpet.
Nar opened his eyes sleepily and saw Wu Zhao, who looked unwell, and Gu Chen, who was expressionless.
"Alas!"
With a slip, Nar quickly transformed into human form and collapsed onto the bed.
"My lord, why are you so weak?!"
His owner had only taken a nap, how did he become like this!
"How did the kinship ties break! My lord, your relationship with the Shen family is completely severed!"
Nar was both surprised and delighted, and hugged Wu Zhao's arm tightly.
Before he could even instinctively reach out to rub against her, a large hand grabbed the back of his neck.
"If you know she's not feeling well, don't keep bothering her. If you're really free, go downstairs and water the flowers."
Nar's human form was quite petite, while Gu Chen's figure was extremely tall.
He grabbed Nar by the back of the neck so casually that it looked almost comical.
"You, you, you, let me go!"
Nar was afraid of Gu Chen, and being pulled by Gu Chen like this made his hair stand on end.
Wu Zhao watched, both amused and exasperated, as Gu Chen shoved Nar outside the door.
"He's too noisy; you need to rest."
"I'll handle things with the Shen family. Don't worry about it, just rest."
He touched Wu Zhao's hair, then turned and left the room.
"Hmm... since the kinship ties are severed, then Shen Jiaojiao and I have no relation anymore, right..."
Wu Zhao muttered to himself, closed his eyes, and pressed his temples.
"Danasus, go see what Shen Jiaojiao is doing?"
"If the time is right, we'll make her behave herself."
A black shadow flashed past Wu Zhao's table.
"Yes, my lord."
