Chapter 35 Shen Mao Brings Up Old Debts

Shen Baisu was talking to a fair-skinned and handsome young man. She didn't know what they were talking about, but the young man nodded at her with a grin and then got into the passenger seat.

Then, Shen Baisu looked at a long-haired boy, opened the car door for him, and then pulled a chubby girl into the car together.

The car started up very quickly.

Originally, when Wan Jun saw Shen Baisu, he had already decided to turn around and hide back at the club, but after seeing the car leave, Wan Jun gave up on that idea.

He stood there, frowning as he watched the Shen family's car drive away.

Shen Baisu just left like that?

Didn't she come here tonight to see him?

Shen Baisu was unaware that she was also in this club; otherwise, she wouldn't have left so easily.

Was that Shen Baisu who got on the bus just now?

Wan Jun was standing there lost in thought when a voice suddenly rang in his ears.

Upon hearing this, Wan Jun subconsciously turned his head to look, only to find that there was a boy standing next to him, the same boy who had reminded him to stay away from Shen Baisu in the private room.

Wan Jun shook off his jumbled thoughts and casually asked, "What?"

Boy: "I think I just saw Shen Baisu."

"However, Jun-ge, you don't need to worry about her bothering you. She has already left by car."

"It's a good thing you came out at night, Jun-ge, otherwise you might have run into her."

As he spoke, the boy looked as if he were still afraid for Wan Jun.

The boy was trying to please Wan Jun by saying this, but Wan Jun felt a tightness in his chest after hearing the boy's words.

He simply gave a curt "hmm".

Seeing this, the boy continued to rack his brains for a topic, but before he could find one, Wan Jun said to him, "My car is here, goodbye."

After saying that, Wan Jun walked towards the roadside.

Upon seeing this, the boy immediately waved to Wan Jun's retreating figure and shouted, "Goodbye, Brother Jun!"

He smiled as he watched Wan Jun leave, even though he knew Wan Jun wouldn't turn back or see the smile on his face, he still kept smiling.

When Shen Baisu and the other three arrived at the Shen family manor, it was nearly eleven o'clock.

Normally, the living room would be empty by this time, but today, when the four of them entered the living room, there were still two people sitting there: Shen Mao and Shen Mingyu.

"came back?"

As soon as Shen Baisu stepped into the living room, Shen Mao's voice rang out softly.

The old lady went back to the old house this afternoon. Shen Baisu guessed that the reason Shen Mao was still up so late was probably because he wanted to settle scores with her later.

Even though she had already guessed it, Shen Baisu was not flustered at all. She nodded to Shen Mao and said with a warm smile, "Yes, you're back."

"Dad, you're still awake? Aren't you sleepy? You should go to bed early, staying up late at your age is the easiest way to go bald."

"No matter how good-looking you are, if you go bald, your appearance will be ruined."

If, by then, there are still young women in their twenties willing to marry you, they're really only after your money.

Shen Mao: "..."

Shen Baisu's words sounded somewhat sarcastic, yet also seemed genuinely concerned about Shen Mao. After hearing them, Shen Mao was completely rendered silent.

No, how did she manage to act like nothing happened?

Has she forgotten what happened last night? Has she forgotten how she tricked him this morning?
"Why are you back so late? Where have you been gallivanting off to? And you even brought back so many people?" Seeing Shen Mao's lack of support, Shen Mingyu started to urge him on, "Dad, you should discipline her." Shen Mingyu had been sitting in the living room with Shen Mao until now, not to stage a scene of filial piety, but to see how Shen Mao would deal with Shen Baisu.

Seeing Shen Mao fall silent, Shen Mingyu was afraid that he would forget to cause trouble for Shen Baisu, so he began to fan the flames from the side.

Since he said that, Shen Mao will definitely follow up with his words to question Shen Baisu, and then teach her a lesson, right?
Sure enough, as soon as Shen Mingyu spoke, Shen Mao noticed the three people who had returned with Shen Baisu.

Of those three people, Shen Mao knew two of them.

He had already seen Su Qing this morning.

Shen Mao also knew Yu Lan. The old residences of the Shen family and the Yu family were close to each other, and the two families had a long-standing friendship. Shen Mao knew that Yu Lan had a good relationship with Shen Baisu.

However, it's been a long time since I've seen Yu Lan and Shen Baisu interact. Why are they here today?
Shen Mao was only puzzled for a moment before turning his gaze to Chang Yu, whom he had never seen before.

Although Changyu has long hair, it's not hard to recognize him as a man. He has a strange demeanor and gives people an invisible sense of oppression.

They don't seem like any disreputable friends, but why are they dressed so strangely?

"If she dares to come back at 11 pm today, she'll dare to come back at 1 or 2 am tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, she'll be staying out all night!"

Just as Shen Mao was looking at Changyu, Shen Mingyu's voice rang out again.

Shen Mao snapped out of his daze and looked at Shen Baisu. He was about to question Shen Baisu in line with Shen Mingyu's words, but Shen Baisu spoke first.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Tomorrow is Monday, I have classes, and I don't get out of school until 3:30 in the afternoon. How could I possibly be back at 1 or 2 o'clock?"

Shen Mingyu and Shen Mao: "..."

Shen Baisu: "This is my home too. What's wrong with me bringing three friends back to stay for one night?"

As she spoke, Shen Baisu turned to look at Su Qing and the other two, "What are you three standing there for? Hurry up and say hello to Uncle Shen. Don't worry, your Uncle Shen is a good person and won't kick you out in the middle of the night."

Su Qing and Yu Lan: "Hello, Uncle Shen."

Changyu didn't call Shen Uncle, but simply nodded to Shen Mao.

Shen Mao was already bound to Shen Baisu by morality, so naturally he wouldn't drive them away.

Not wanting to speak ill of Shen Baisu in front of outsiders, he turned to Shen Mingyu and said, "Take her three friends upstairs and arrange their rooms."

After saying that, Shen Mao looked at Shen Baisu and said, "You, just stand here. I still have something to say to you."

Shen Baisu nodded, then turned to look at Su Qing and the other two, signaling them to follow Shen Mingyu upstairs.

Seeing this, Shen Mingyu had no choice but to get up, even though he was unwilling.

After Shen Mingyu led his men upstairs, Shen Mao showed off his wristwatch, pointed to the hands, and said, "Look, look at the time!"

"You're a girl, why aren't you home so late at night? Where have you been gallivanting around?"

Hearing Shen Mao's question, Shen Baisu said disapprovingly, "Dad, what you said is inappropriate. If I were a boy, would I be allowed to run around and fool around at night?"

Shen Mao: "..."

Is this the point?

Shen Baisu: "I only went out to play for a few hours, and you question me like this? Why don't you care about my younger siblings who don't come home for months at a time?"

Shen Mao: "..."

I originally intended to start with this and settle old scores with Shen Baisu, but somehow I felt like I was stuck.
"Alright, I'll leave what happened tonight aside for now, but what about yesterday?"

"Why did you push Ruoxi into the pool? You even talked back to me and made me break four antique vases..."
