Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Shen Qingxue and Shen Xiang left, Shen Xun apologized to Shen Jun, “Big Brother, what happened just now was all an accident. The porcelain was broken, and I'll get you a replacement as a longevity gift another day…”

Shen Jun observed Shen Xun's expression and understood that the item was definitely a fake. He knew his younger brother well, who valued wealth greatly. If it were genuine, and Shen Qingxue had broken it just now, he would have cursed her on the spot. The thought that his own younger brother had actually given him a counterfeit and lied, claiming it was a carefully selected gift, left Shen Jun feeling cold.

He coldly replied, “No need. If you buy more counterfeits and my other collector friends find out, they might laugh at me, thinking that the Shen family is going bankrupt.”

Shen Xun's heart tightened, “Brother…”

“Do you want me to invite an expert in appraising antiques to come and verify

This time, Shen Xun completely shut his mouth.

As time passed, the lively birthday banquet finally came to an end. Shen Qingyue returned to her room to fetch the gift she had prepared and looked for Shen Jun downstairs.

Shen Jun was sitting in the garden, his slightly murky eyes gazing into space.

Shen Qingyue approached him, “Grandfather, what are you thinking about?”

Shen Jun smiled helplessly, “I just suddenly realized that all my good intentions over the years have gone to waste.”

Shen Qingyue naturally knew what he meant. However, she did not continue this topic that would trouble Shen Jun. Just like back then, she pursued Qin Zhen despite her grandfather's anger because he was the one funding her happiness. Now, as long as Shen Xun's family could make her grandfather happy, she could turn a blind eye, but the prerequisite was that Shen Xun's family must not harm her grandfather.

She took out her gift, “Grandfather, I made this myself. Take a look and see if you like it.”

It was the result of her work over the past few days, and she only brought it out for her grandfather to see in the evening.

Shen Jun took her cup. The cup was ugly, but the family portrait on it was exquisite, featuring his son, daughter-in-law, himself, and a young Shen Qingyue… His eyes welled up slowly, “I like it. This is the best gift Grandpa received tonight.”

Seeing this, Shen Qingyue smiled too. She thought. 'It's really nice. Grandpa is still here, and I still have family.'

She looked up at the stars in the sky and said, “Mom, Dad, are you doing well? I'm doing well now, with Grandpa.”

Tong Jia accompanied her mother as usual until the evening. When she saw her mother fall asleep peacefully, she left the hospital with relief. Recently, her mother's condition had been improving, and that put her at ease. Just when she felt reassured, a hand reached out from behind and covered her mouth and nose.

The handkerchief was soaked with a sedative. Within a few seconds, Tong Jia lost consciousness. When she woke up again, she found her hands tied, thrown on the ground, and her mouth sealed with tape. She struggled for a few times, and suddenly, a pair of polished black leather shoes appeared before her.

She slowly lifted her head.

Han Xu looked down on her from above, and his disgust was undisguised, “Tsk tsk, this face is really repulsive.”

His voice was soft, but it felt as heavy as a stone, crushing Tong Jia's heart. He used to shower her with endless praise and compliments. Now, he only held contempt and disdain for her.

The man behind Han Xu respectfully asked, “Mr. Han, how would you like to handle this?”

Han Xu casually replied, “Throw her in the basement and send the video to Ling Bing'er.”

The man hesitated for a moment, “Do we have to do it this way…”

Following Han Xu's orders, he had been monitoring Tong Jia for the past few days. She was either at home, at work, or at the hospital taking care of her seriously ill mother. Her meals were simple, just steamed buns and pickles she was a pitiful person.

Han Xu turned his head slightly, “Do you want to take her place?”

The man trembled, “I'm sorry, Mr. Han. I crossed the line.” Then he waved and, together with another person, pulled Tong Jia up from the ground and dragged her towards the door.

Tong Jia's eyes were brimming with tears, and she stared desperately at Han Xu, struggling with all her might! She knew too well about Han Xu's cruel methods. What did she do wrong? Why was he treating her like this?

Those eyes were exactly like Wanzhe's, and Han Xu felt a sudden panic. It was as if he was about to push away the most precious thing to him…

The next morning, when Shen Qingyue woke up, she received a message from Tong Jia, saying that she was not feeling well and wanted to take two days off. Shen Qingyue replied, asking her to take good care of herself and not to worry

about anything.

She went to work, thinking that Yu Zhuang would return soon and it would not delay anything. After arriving at the company, Shen Qingyue turned on her phone and checked the information on the local planning bureau's official website. She remembered that the planning news for Suburb One was scheduled to be released at nine o'clock this morning….
