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

Chapter 724: Aboveboard

The reason why Jiang Huashan disagreed with Shen Guiling going to Country S was very simple. Shen Nian had been planning in Country S for a full ten years. How could he be so easy to kill?

In the previous life, Yao Ge went crazy, his grandfather died, and Shen Nian couldn't come back. How could he come back so easily now?

In fact, as the story developed to this point, she had already vaguely guessed the hidden story about the second wife in her previous life.

Shen Guiling entered Shen Garden with hatred, but his target was not his grandfather, but Shen Qian's family. Under his revenge plan, Yao Ge went crazy and Shen Nian could never return to China. Shen Qian obeyed his every word and even gave up the foundation he had worked hard for half his life.

In her previous life, Shen Guiling's plan was to separate the two houses, so why did it become a plan to go to Country S and kill people? For whom was this planned? The answer was self-evident.

But she didn't need Shen Guiling to do this for her. Not to mention that only she could change the power of the play, Shen Guiling's intervention would be useless. Even if it was useful, she didn't want to owe him such a big favor.

Jiang Huashan explained calmly, "Listen to me, Shen Nian's return is not a bad thing. I'm not stupid and I won't do anything without confidence. You don't have to put yourself in such danger to help me."

Long before Shen Guiling confessed this, he had already guessed Jiang Huashan's attitude.

Everything else could be discussed, but this time, he had to fight to the death. If he couldn't get through it on his own, he and Jiang Huashan would definitely be in trouble, so the risk was worth taking.

Shen Guiling never needed her to say a word as long as she could agree to something. Her silence at this moment actually showed her attitude.

Jiang Huashan saw that he was determined to leave and frowned, "Are you still going?"

Shen Guiling nodded, "Yeah."

Jiang Huashan was puzzled, "Why?"

It was obvious that in his previous life he only stopped Shen Nian from leaving Country A. Besides, she had already said that there was no need for him to go to such lengths. Shen Guiling should know her attitude.

"To give myself an explanation."

This answer was completely beyond Jiang Huashan's expectations.

She was stunned for a moment, her eyes showing a little more confusion. "For myself?"

Shen Guiling was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Actually... I have a secret that I haven't told you."

Jiang Huashan's expression changed slightly, "Secret?"

Shen Guiling, "I... am not Shen Qian's child."

"..." Jiang Huashan was stunned for a moment, eyes wide open, "What did you say?"

Shen Guiling's words confused her.

As early as her trip to the Bai Palace, she had vaguely guessed that Shen Guiling had half of the Bai family's blood, but she never imagined that the other half had nothing to do with the Shen family.

"Are...are you sure? Did you make a mistake?" Jiang Huashan still couldn't believe it.

If Shen Guiling was not a child of the Shen family, wouldn't all the teachings of his grandfather over the years be in vain for others?

Suddenly, she thought of something, her red lips parted slightly, and the light in her wide-open pupils suddenly collapsed.

I see……

She knew why her grandfather liked Shen Guiling so much but still wanted to kick him out of Shen Garden, because he was not a member of the Shen family and he deceived everyone in the Shen family.

This seems to be a closed loop.

Jiang Huashan felt his mind was in a mess, "You..."

Shen Guiling didn't expect her to have such a big reaction. After a moment of silence, he continued, "I'm not Shu Mu's child either."

Not Shu Mu either?

Jiang Huashan didn't react immediately, "Then...whose child are you?"

Shen Guiling shook her head. "I don't know. I've known I was an orphan since I was three years old. I was a chess piece placed by Yao Ge next to Shu Mu."

"Yao Ge?" The development of the story gradually exceeded Jiang Huashan's imagination, but because it was too outrageous, she calmed down instead.

At this moment, she suddenly understood why Shen Guiling had to endure Yao Ge's bullying.

Shen Guiling, "Yao Ge hated my mother for taking away Shen Qian's love. The real Shen Guiling was taken away and killed by a nurse bribed by Yao Ge at birth, and I was the abandoned baby she took from an orphanage. Ever since I learned about my life story at the age of three, my only wish has been to escape from that cage with my mother."

"But contrary to our wishes, she still died."

"When I entered Shen Garden, I had only one goal from the beginning to the end, and that was revenge."

After he calmly recounted his past, he dared to look up and meet Jiang Huashan's gaze. "I will never forgive Yao Ge for what she did to my mother. Therefore, I must let her also taste what my mother went through."

So, she really doesn't seem to have any position to object.

Jiang Huashan's expression softened as he asked softly, "Then how did you and Shen Nian meet?"

People don't hate without reason. Shen Guiling is a very principled person. This can be seen from the fact that he took revenge on Shen Qian but did not vent his anger on other people in Shen Garden.

So, she guessed that there must be an unknown past between him and Shen Nian.

In fact it is.

When Shen Guiling was six years old, she was beaten by Yao Ge for being disobedient and locked in a secret room. However, Shen Nian, curious about Yao Ge's pet, opened the secret room openly.

At that time, Shen Nian was thirteen years old. He not only helped Shen Guiling escape, but also pretended to be a kind-hearted person to deceive him, and would plead with Yao Ge to release them mother and son.

Shen Guiling believed it and escaped from the secret room with the help of Shen Nian, but Shen Nian immediately went to inform Yao Ge. After being caught, he was subjected to an even more severe beating.

At that time, he was lying in the corner covered in blood, and Shen Nian was squatting in front of him, laughing.

"Didn't you say you were quite smart? I think you're just like that, like a silly dog, so pitifully naive~tsk~"

But Shen Guiling didn't want to talk about the past at all. She just said vaguely, "He was the first person I asked for help."

Jiang Huashan understood instantly.

Shen Nian has a bad temper, and Shen Guiling must have suffered a lot in his hands. Such a proud person certainly doesn't want to talk about that past.

She didn't force it, and her eyes softened. "So, you're going to Country S this time to make a break with your past?"

Shen Guiling nodded. "My entry into Shen Garden was all pretense from beginning to end. I know what I want to do and I don't feel sorry for it. The only person is Grandpa..."

Shen Guiling knew how Shen Zhuang treated him this year, but even if he knew it, it would not stop his plan of revenge. The only thing he could do now was to restore the truth as soon as possible.

But if his identity is exposed, he will no longer have the bargaining chips to deal with Shen Qian's family, so he wants to complete his revenge before his identity is revealed.

Over the years, he has been involved in the game himself, and most of the forces in Nanwan are under his control. Any chip in his hand can force Shen Qian to step down. As for Yao Ge, based on his understanding of Shen Nian, her end will be either death or disability, and in the end, only Shen Nian will be left.

It just so happened that Shen Nian was also Jiang Huashan’s target, so this trip to Country S had to be made.

"Grandpa treated me well. Although I can't let go of my hatred, I believe in him. After Shen Nian and Yao Ge receive the punishment they deserve, I will hand over all of Shen Qian's crimes to Grandpa and let him deal with them before leaving Shen Garden."

Shen Guiling paused, his eyebrows suddenly softened, "Then, we can be together openly."
