I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 767 Old driver, take me with you

A few days ago, Shen Rang couldn't stand Shen Mianzhi being around Zhou Yanheng 24 hours a day, so he strongly proposed that Shen Mianzhi go to Nanwan to monitor the secret guards. However, Shen Mianzhi was unwilling to do so, and even quarreled with him because he said a few bad words about Zhou Yanheng.

Shen Rang had never seen Shen Mianzhi like this before, and he couldn't help feeling sad. He said a few harsh words, and the two of them parted unhappily.

Afterwards, Shen Rang regretted it immensely. Ever since his daughter was little, he'd always tried to satisfy her every whim. Why couldn't he do the same with Zhou Yanheng? Thinking it over, Shen Rang grew increasingly restless, swallowing his pride and taking the initiative to seek reconciliation at Chunyuan. However, upon entering the courtyard, he was informed by his aunt that Shen Mianzhi had been to the hospital again.

Shen Rang had no choice but to follow him to the hospital, but he didn't know what happened in the hospital. After returning, the father and daughter had a more intense quarrel. Shen Mianzhi was even more radical and slammed the door and walked out in front of Shen Rang.

"That day, there was such a commotion in Chunyuan that it was impossible to conceal it. I heard that the old man later sent someone to inquire about it, and the Fifth Master personally went to Qinyuan to suppress the matter."

Is there such a thing?

Jiang Huashan looked down at the recorder in her hand, feeling mixed emotions.

She has been busy planning the live broadcast these days and has been running around all day long. When she finally comes back, she falls asleep immediately and has no time to care about Shen Mianzhi.

She knew what Shen Mianzhi wanted to do. If she wanted to deceive the show, she had to deceive everyone around her. However, this road was tortuous and those with weak minds would find it difficult to move forward because of the confusion between truth and lies. She was most afraid that in the end, she would even deceive herself.

Zhang Ru said that this was not a nagging thing, but she had witnessed how the three young ladies had progressed step by step in the past few years, and she did not want this pure friendship to be ruined, so she reminded them of it. But seeing Jiang Huashan's grim expression, she couldn't help but blame herself, "Miss, am I talking too much?"

Jiang Huashan shook his head, "No."

As the two were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of copper rings knocking outside the yard.

Jiang Huashan turned around and looked, his eyes slightly stunned.

At dusk in the summer, the twilight was like spilled orange juice. Shen Lanxi stood outside the courtyard gate covered with lush vines. Her facial features appeared deep and three-dimensional under the outline of the setting sun, like a jade statue carefully carved by the setting sun.

"Can you come in?"

Jiang Huashan: "No."

Shen Lanxi pretended not to hear, raised her eyes to glance at her, and walked straight towards her.

Behind him was the setting sun and the sky was covered with brocade clouds. Perhaps it was because the sunset was so beautiful, but Jiang Huashan actually saw a trace of tenderness in Shen Lanxi's eyebrows and eyes.

She cursed inwardly, what a specter! Just as she came to her senses, she bumped into those bottomless eyes again.

"..."

Zhang Ru was very perceptive and quickly pointed to the kitchen, "The soup will be ready soon. I'll go check it out."

After saying that, without a second's hesitation, he turned around and rushed into the kitchen.

Jiang Huashan felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, and casually played with the recorder in her hand, "Do you have something to talk to me about?"

Shen Lanxi nodded, pulled over a bamboo chair and sat down. "Have you seen Yu Sheng's live broadcast case?"

Jiang Huashan frowned, looking defensive. "Yeah, what's wrong?"

Shen Lanxi, "The judiciary has intervened in the case in which Yu Sheng sued Yu Siwen. She has requested out-of-court assistance, and the Shen Family Public Welfare Aid Association has taken over the case."

Jiang Huashan was stunned. This news was completely beyond her expectations. She couldn't help but pull the chair and sit back.

"Grandpa agreed?"

A year ago, Shen Jiao established several charitable aid foundations in her name to build momentum for her, including one that provided legal aid to vulnerable groups. However, without the Shen family's approval, the legal team would definitely not dare to take on such a major case.

Shen Lanxi, "Grandpa said that Yu Sheng followed the legal procedures and met the conditions for assistance. The Shen family has no reason to refuse."

Jiang Huashan had never questioned Shen Zhuang's character. If the beacon wasn't upright, how could it guide those who sought it? She was curious about Shen Lanxi's attitude. In the past, Shen Lanxi had always been condescending and told her not to get involved. But now, she was deliberately showing off in front of her. What was the logic?

Did this guy discover something?

Shen Lanxi acted as if oblivious to Jiang Huashan's scrutiny and continued, "The legal team will be at the police station to meet with Yu Sheng in half an hour. This matter involves treason, and all citizens of Country A are keeping a close eye on it. Grandpa is worried, so he asked me to be in charge of the arrangements."

Jiang Huashan pursed his lips and whispered, "What are you showing off for?"

"..." Shen Lanxi was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "I came here to ask you, do you want to go with me?"

"!?"

For the first time, Jiang Huashan felt that he had jumped to conclusions too early. He twisted his neck in disbelief and looked Shen Lanxi up and down. "What... did you say?"

Her eyes were extremely clear, and whether it was surprise or suspicion, it was full of vitality on her face.

Shen Lanxi looked at herself in her eyes and suddenly felt a burn. She looked at the little turtle beside her calmly, "Grandpa always praises you for being smart, resourceful and having a broad perspective. If this matter is not handled well, it will easily give the Shen family an excuse to accuse you. So, I think it's good to have you here, as there's someone else to discuss things with."

He is not good at praising others, and his expression is extremely stiff when he speaks.

Jiang Huashan's expression is hard to describe.

Smart, resourceful and able to see the big picture?

She really didn't expect that one day she would hear words of praise from Shen Lanxi, that ice-cold lump. Didn't this guy always think that she was a crazy woman with a mental disorder?

The silence between the two was deafening.

Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Shen Lanxi turned her eyes back and asked, "You don't want to?"

"No! I don't want to!" Jiang Huashan turned around in a second, turned sideways and patted Shen Lanxi's shoulder very kindly, "Since you are not ashamed to ask for advice, as an experienced driver, I will... guide you."

Shen Lanxi, "..."
