Because she was addicted

"Brother Shen said that Lin Zhidong drowned the dog by holding it in the water."

Lu Chenyan continued his statement.

Lin Zhidong denies it.

He said that Fu Huaishen disapproved of him moving into the Fu family home and deliberately made excuses to frame him.

Fu Huaishen had raised that dog from a puppy to adulthood, and they had a very close relationship, almost like family. In a fit of anger, he started fighting with Lin Zhidong.

For a moment, Fu Huaishen, Lin Zhidong, Lin Wanting, Fu Xiu, and the family's nanny were all huddled together.

During the struggle, Fu Xiu was pushed to the ground and bled profusely.

Afterwards, although the doctors tried their best to save the baby, they still couldn't keep it.

Fu Xiu fell seriously ill as a result.

After that incident, Fu Huaishen became taciturn and much more depressed.

Fu Xiu remained bedridden and her condition did not improve, so Lin Xiao invited a skilled doctor to come to their home to treat her.

A wise man said that Fu Xiu needed to find a place with water to recuperate from her illness. Not long after, Fu Xiu moved back to the old house, Xiaolianzhuang, in the south of the city with Fu Huaishen.

"President Fu met Shen Li at Xiaolian Manor."

Wen Jia continued the conversation.

She had heard this story from the old neighbors in the south of the city.

"Yes."

Lu Chenyan said,

"Shen Ge mentioned to me that his eyes were always smiling whenever he talked about this past event. He said that Shen Li's mother got pregnant out of wedlock, and after giving birth to her, she abandoned her to her uncle and disappeared without a trace. Shen Li's aunt was very mean and beat and scolded her almost every day. She lived in the stairwell of the house."

As a child, Shen Li was like a wild mudfish, running around the alleys and streets in the south of the city, leading a group of kids to fight everywhere. He was a very troublesome child.

That day, she skipped school and happened to run into Fu Huaishen, who had just moved to the south of the city, at the small bridge. She couldn't stand that pretty and clean boy, which made her feel like the dirtiest mud on the ground.

She picked up a piece of mud from the ground and threw it at Fu Huaishen.

The pristine white shirt was instantly covered in mud.

"Brother Shen said he had never seen such a mischievous child, especially a girl. Her hair was as dirty as an African's braids, and her clothes were old clothes that adults didn't want to wear anymore, which didn't fit her at all. She looked like a beggar, but her eyes were brighter than the North Star in the night sky."

Shen Li knew what happened next.

Fu Huaishen chased after Shen Li every day to tutor her and took her to eat delicious food at every restaurant in the south of the city.

One without scallions.

One doesn't need cilantro.

Then Shen Li was admitted to the architecture department of Ocean University.

"So how did they break up later?" Wen Jia asked.

Lu Chenyan: "Madam Fu is seriously ill and needs to go to England for treatment. Brother Shen and Shen Li arranged to take her with them and even helped her apply to schools. But Brother Shen waited for her at the airport all day, and Shen Li didn't come. He even sent him a photo."

Wen Jia: "What photos?"

"Photos of her with other people."

Wen Jia gasped. "She changed her mind?"

"Shen thought so too, and called her frantically, but she wouldn't answer. He sent her a text message, and she replied, 'The Cinderella story only exists in fairy tales. Rather than grasping at something ethereal, she prefers to hold onto the reality before her eyes.'"

"It's fake, isn't it?" Wen Jia remembered that Fu Huaishen had said that it was Madam Fu who used tricks to break them up.

"Yes. But Brother Shen didn't know at the time. He was filled with pain and hatred, so he went to England and stayed there for six years."

"So now? Does he know what happened?"

"Yeah. When Brother Shen returned to China last year, he bumped into Shen Li, who was delivering coffee to the company, on his first day there. The two of them, who thought they would never see each other again, ended up meeting again."

Wen Jia couldn't help but sigh.

She had heard a lot of gossip from Yimo at the company, and now she knew what had happened.

She could easily imagine what happened next.

"Brother Shen was unwilling to accept it, so he secretly hired a private investigator to look into what happened back then. The truth broke his heart."

It turned out that Shen Li was kidnapped on the day she was supposed to go abroad.

She dragged her luggage, carrying all her belongings, preparing to go to the airport to meet Fu Huaishen, but was kidnapped on the way.

The photo was taken against my will.

She didn't send the text message either.

She was locked in an abandoned warehouse on a mountain, where several thugs tried to assault her. She feigned compliance and, taking advantage of their momentary lapse in attention, slit one of their throats with a shard of glass.

By the time she arrived at the airport covered in blood and dragging her suitcase, Fu Huaishen's plane had already taken off.

Inside the airport, there were only heavily policed ​​officers surrounding her and her painful screams.

Wen Jia felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this and couldn't help but hug herself.

I never expected the truth to be like this.

"Did Madam Fu order this to be done?"

Her voice trembled as she recalled the image of Fu Xiu that she had seen at the entrance of Haicheng Hospital in the early hours of that day.

Such a kind-faced lady, I never imagined she could be such a ruthless person.

"Yes. Madam Fu also secretly arranged for Shen Li to be convicted of excessive self-defense and sentenced to four years in prison. Niannian was born in prison."

Lu Chenyan parked the car on the side of the road, and the hazard lights kept flashing.

The carriage was unusually quiet.

Wen Jia felt as if something was pressing down on her heart, making her very uncomfortable.

Shen Li, she had seen her so many times, and every time she saw her, she was smiling. A gentle, serene smile, like a spring breeze.

And then there's that kid who looks like Shin-chan from Crayon Shin-chan, who sweetly calls her "beautiful older sister," Nian Nian.

Wen Jia never imagined that Shen Li and her daughter had gone through such hardships.

"On one side is his mother, on the other his lover and daughter. No wonder President Fu is in so much pain. He's caught in the middle, torn between two difficult choices."

Wen Jia couldn't help but sigh.

After thinking about it, she finally told Lu Chenyan what had happened that night.

Lu Chenyan paused for a moment, then said softly:

"I see."

Wen Jia said, "Emotionally speaking, President Fu and Shen Li are indeed very pitiful. But President Tang is also quite pitiful. She stayed abroad with President Fu for six years, which was the best years of a woman's youth. She thought they could finally get married, but unexpectedly, this happened before the wedding. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to accept it either."

She felt she could understand Tang Ning's pain enough.

No wonder she tried to commit suicide by cutting her wrists at the hospital that day.

But how did Tang Ning know about Fu Huaishen's schedule, which was arranged so secretly?

"You think so?" Lu Chenyan turned to look at her, his expression strange.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Wenjia was puzzled.

Lu Chenyan shook his head. "It's nothing. Jiajia, things are as they are now. The wedding is in nine days, and Shen Li has left with the child. This matter is settled."

"The lives of the wealthy are truly complicated."

Wen Jia sighed.

Lu Chenyan immediately grabbed her hand, "The Fu family is the Fu family, don't make such comparisons. Don't worry, my family is fine. This kind of thing would never happen to me."

"That would be best," Wen Jia smiled.

When the two returned home, Wen Jia suddenly remembered something.

"Do you know where Shen Li went?"

Lu Chenyan shook his head. "I heard that Madam Fu went to see her personally and asked for 100 million as compensation."

"Duo Shao?" Wen Jia's voice cracked.

"One hundred million? What's wrong?"

Lu Chenyan changed into slippers and pulled Wen Jia to lie down on the sofa.

Wen Jia was speechless.

Shen Li, you really bring honor to us women!

A small goal directly.

That's really something.
