Chapter 23: Understanding the Meaning of Righteousness

The hand that Shen Wenqi was using to hold her phone was trembling non-stop. Previously, her calls had not been able to get through, so how was it that she could get through now? It wasn’t possible that Luo Youyou was still alive, right? Thinking of this, Shen Wenqi hurriedly reported this news to Shen Jinhan.

Shen Jinhan was unconcerned about it. “The person I hired said that the little b*tch had already rolled down the slope and died. How could she still be alive?”

“But, I managed to connect to her phone now!” Shen Wenqi still felt that something was wrong.

“Maybe someone else picked up her phone?” Shen Jinhan guessed.

Shen Wenqi frowned. “Even if someone else picked it up, how could the person continue to use her phone card? Mom, I still feel that Luo Youyou isn’t dead yet.”

When Shen Jinhan heard this, she lowered her head and pondered, “You’re right. This is indeed strange. Although they are sure that the little b*tch is dead, we didn’t actually see her body. If she really isn’t dead, we have to think of something else quickly.”

“What other plan can we think of? If Luo Youyou isn’t dead, she will definitely suspect that we did it. If she tells my dad, we’ll be finished!” Shen Wenqi was becoming more and more anxious.

“What are you afraid of? There is no evidence to prove that Luo Youyou is still alive. But even if she is, what can she do? Is there evidence to prove that we did it? Those people are fugitives. They are wanted criminals. In what way could she get any proof about them?” Shen Jinhan glared at her daughter. However, she knew that it was because she was still young that she was unable to stay calm when something happened.

After saying this, Shen Jinhan pondered for a long time before gesturing for her daughter to move closer. Then, she said, “The most important thing for us now is to move into the Luo family home. Your father keeps saying that he wants us to move in, but he hasn’t taken any action yet and still hasn’t openly acknowledged our identity. We can’t wait any longer. In a while, you have to go and look for your father. This is what you have to say…”

“Mother, you’re the best!” After hearing this, Shen Wenqi was completely relieved and went to look for Luo Yutao.

Greenland Building.

Luo Yutao was reading the financial report in his office when Shen Wenqi walked in and greeted him sweetly, “Dad.”

Luo Yutao looked at the time. “Don’t you have to go to work? Why are you here now?”

“I was just passing by because I had an errand to run, and I thought of coming up to see you, Dad,” Shen Wenqi smiled as she walked to Luo Yutao’s side and began to massage his shoulders. Then, she said, “Oh, by the way, Dad, I called Youyou, but she didn’t pick up. I had no choice but to send her a message asking her to call you. Has she contacted you yet?”

“No.” Luo Yutao’s expression became unfriendly at the mention of Luo Youyou. “This little b*tch. All I did was slap her and say a few words to her. Just because of that, she has not dared to come home. She’s even dared to cut contact. It’s really making me angry.”

“Dad, actually, this is all the fault of me and my mom. You can’t blame Youyou. She’s just angry because you’ve acknowledged me and she’s finding it difficult to accept it in her heart,” said Shen Wenqi as she observed Luo Yutao’s expression.

“She’s just lawless!” Luo Yutao roared. “In the past, the two of you were already as close as sisters. She even mentioned that she wanted you to be my god-daughter. Now that you’re both actually biological sisters, she’s suddenly unwilling.”

“Dad, you said it yourself. That was in the past, not now.” Shen Wenqi knelt in front of Luo Yutao and continued to persuade him, “I think Youyou might still be upset because of the matter between me and Yiran. Now that Yiran is with me, she’s probably holding a grudge against me.”

“I know about this matter. But, Yiran doesn’t have feelings for her anymore and is pursuing you now. What’s the point of her continuing to hold a grudge against you?” Luo Yutao sighed, “Besides, you two are sisters. What’s the difference who marries into the Lu family? As long as you can keep Lu Yiran, that’s enough. But now, because of this, she hasn’t even come home. Those who don’t know would think that I’m abusing her.”

Shen Wenqi’s eyes moved slightly as she pretended to be a righteous person, “Youyou isn’t angry with Daddy. She just wants to force you to disown me and my mother. Actually, my mother and I have endured all kinds of hardships all these years, and we don’t want to cause trouble for you at this time. My mother and I have discussed the matter and decided that since Youyou is so resistant to us, we won’t go back to live with you. I will tell Youyou about this. Then, in this way, she will definitely answer the phone and go home.”

“You don’t have to bother about her!” When Luo Yutao heard how sensible Shen Wenqi was, he felt like he owed them even more, “I remember that your mother will be discharged soon, right? When the time comes, you can bring her directly back to the Luo family villa. I don’t believe that Youyou can hide outside for very long.”

Hearing this, Shen Wenqi’s seemed surprised. She humbly said a few more words before leaving Luo Yutao’s office. Then, she immediately contacted Shen Jinhan, “Mom, you’re too amazing! I followed your plan when I talked to my father. As expected, he gave us a specific time for us to move in!”
