Mrs. Shen brought up the matter of Shen Chun, and Shen Bin fell silent. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Gao Xique felt both happy and angry, and shouted, "Cousin, you can’t ignore Shen Chun. She’s done so much for you, not to mention...."

"Shut your mouth." Shen Bin suddenly yelled with a stern face. Gao Xique was startled, staring blankly at Shen Bin, not daring to make a sound. Shen Bin glared at her, "If I hear such things again, you better be off wherever you should go, and don’t even think about working in the city."

The driver, Xiao Chen, seeing the situation, also turned and walked away. After all, it’s a family matter, and being just a driver, it’s not appropriate for him to stay and listen. Meanwhile, in the car, Ye Ling had all the doors closed, and though Xiao Chen would occasionally interject a word, she didn’t hear what Shen Bin and the others were saying outside. Actually, Ye Ling didn’t want to listen because Shen Family’s entangling words are predictable even without hearing them.

Outside, Shen’s father saw his son was angry. Without needing a cue, Mrs. Shen scolded her niece, "You silly child, spouting nonsense all day, can’t you just behave yourself? Your cousin agreed to arrange a job for you yesterday, aren’t you satisfied yet? Would anyone else bother with you?"

She then somewhat helplessly pleaded with her son, "Binzi, don’t take it to heart. Xique is just thoughtless with her words. I never considered you an outsider, it’s just that your sister Chun’er is not young anymore. Going back to the village means suffering, and no decent family is willing to marry her. She doesn’t want to get married either, feeling ashamed. I see you know many people in the city. If there’s a good one at the company, can you check it out for your sister? What do you think?"

Shen Bin remained silent, so Mrs. Shen continued, "We’ve just arrived in the city and can’t find our way. Renting a place ourselves is fine, but can you find someone to help us look for a place first?"

With her mother’s pleading and apologies, someone who had been called mother for so many years, Shen Bin finally didn’t stay firm, "You go back to the guest house and wait. I’ll let the driver help you find a place, and then he’ll take you to see it."

"Alright, alright, we’ll wait there then." Shen’s father didn’t say anything more, but he looked much better than before. Mrs. Shen, however, asked with concern, "Binzi, where are you going for your new job? Do you have to take a car? It seems quite far, right?"

She was indirectly inquiring about Shen Bin’s whereabouts.

Shen Bin naturally understood and had no intention of hiding it, "I’m going to Da XingAn Ridge."

That place is far from here, and the environment is poor. He didn’t believe they’d want to go there; just the cost of the tickets would be enough to make them hesitate.

The Shen Family’s faces changed upon hearing it, becoming honest.

Gao Xique still remembered the scolding from before, "Isn’t your dad a leader? How did he get you to such a poor place?"

She obviously looked down on the Li Family.

Shen Bin ignored her, pretending not to hear, and told Mrs. Shen, "I still need to visit my in-law’s place, so I’ll be leaving first. You just wait at the guest house for now."

Then he ignored the three of them and walked straight to the car.

Shen’s father gave their woman a look and mentioned ’Chun’er’ again. Only then did Mrs. Shen chase after her son, "Binzi, I talked about your sister, have you taken it to heart? You can’t forget about it."

"I’ve noted it down," Shen Bin replied without turning his head, and only then did Mrs. Shen stop pursuing him.

Once Shen Bin got into the car, Xiao Chen started it. The three Shen Family members stood by the road, watching the car drive away, and then Shen’s father scoffed, "Ungrateful, I’ve always said this—if it’s not your own, don’t raise it. Raising them just turns them into ungrateful wretches."

"Alright, let’s not make a fuss now. After all, we did steal the child back then, even if raised to adulthood, no one would say it’s good. Luckily, Shen Bin is conscientious, otherwise, if he really doesn’t help us, we’d have to endure it too." Mrs. Shen quietly advised, "Besides, the job isn’t settled yet, we should behave for now."

Shen’s father knew his woman’s words made sense, but he was still displeased with being dominated by his woman, so he grunted, clasped his hands behind his back, and walked towards the guest house. Behind him, Gao Xique held onto her aunt’s arm and said some flattering words.

"Xique, stop saying those willful things in the future, do you hear me?" Mrs. Shen warned her niece, "That matter is both a blessing and a curse. The good thing is it forces Shen Bin to help us. The bad is if we really push Shen Bin too hard, he’ll get reckless, and we won’t get any benefits later."

Having been stared at with a murderous gaze by Shen Bin, Gao Xique dared not speak carelessly anymore. Even without her aunt’s reminder, she wouldn’t dare to casually bring it up again. She obediently nodded repeatedly, and Mrs. Shen looked satisfied, but when thinking about her daughter who refused to come at the guest house, her brows furrowed.

In the car, after getting in, Shen Bin didn’t say much. When getting off, he instructed the driver, "Xiao Chen, seize the chance to find a place with cheap rent, then take them from the guest house to see it. They just got here, and can’t find where the rentals are."

Xiao Chen agreed. Over at Ye Ling’s side, as she entered the gate, she heard Shen Bin’s words and did not turn around, but Ye He Ping, who was home on vacation, was quite surprised to see his daughter suddenly return. However, once he saw the bag in his daughter’s hand, he understood.

He took his daughter’s bag while saying, "Leaving already? Are they urging you?"

By "they," he meant the people over at Da XingAn Ridge.

Ye Ling didn’t hide it, she just briefly explained her in-laws’ intentions. Ye He Ping nodded, "Yes, Shen Bin is in quite a difficult position. You should keep your distance from the Shen Family folks in the future."

Ye Ling curled her lips disdainfully, "I already quarreled with them once on the road. Don’t worry, they don’t fear embarrassing Shen Bin. If I don’t speak up, they’ll rush even more to cause trouble."

"Oh, you child." Ye He Ping knew his daughter’s temperament, and looked quite awkwardly at Shen Bin following behind, "This child is immature, you should be more tolerant of her. If she does something wrong, just tell her directly, don’t spoil her."

Internally worried that her actions might upset Shen Bin, he tried to pass off her behavior as being spoiled by Shen Bin, hoping Shen Bin wouldn’t be annoyed.

Shen Bin smiled, "I value her character for not suffering losses. Otherwise, encountering in-laws like mine, someone with a good temper would end up being bullied. I can’t always be by her side at the company, this is fine."

Indirectly expressing his own stance.

Ye He Ping felt relieved, laughed, and invited them to sit down, "What time’s the train? Can you have lunch at home?"

"It’s in the afternoon, I’ll cook lunch." About to leave, not knowing when she’ll return, Ye Ling was reluctant to see her father busy. Seeing the rented house, empty without anything, with only her father alone, she couldn’t help but feel sad, "Dad, how about applying for a transfer to be closer to us? At least it’d be better than being alone here."
