Chapter 904 - 885: Planning to Hide It for a Lifetime
At this point, Shen Yucheng obviously couldn’t hide it anymore. He thought to himself that it was his fault for not removing the microphone after the press conference ended when he talked to his wife about Lin Qianqian, which led to such a major mishap.
"I didn’t expect she was still alive..." Shen Yucheng said with his head down. "At that time, You Ran gave birth to twins. We initially planned to abandon them both and had You Ran follow us back to the Shen Family. When we were about to send the children away, we found that my sister was almost dead, so we left her by the roadside and placed you outside the Lou Family."
When the truth from many years ago was revealed, Shen Yucheng and Ye Qingqian’s actions sounded to Lou Xi like the deeds of demons.
What right did they have to decide her and Lin Qianqian’s future, and what right did they have to abandon them, preventing them from even seeing their mother at birth?
At that time, Lou Xi harbored resentment towards her biological parents, hating them for why they abandoned her.
It wasn’t until much later that Lou Xi realized she wasn’t abandoned by her mother but discarded by someone with ulterior motives.
Yet Shen Yucheng allowed them to be separated for so many years, over twenty years apart; how many twenty years are there in a lifetime?
"When I reunited with my mom, you didn’t plan to tell us we had a sister! If Lin Qianqian hadn’t appeared, would you have kept it from us forever?" Lou Xi challenged Shen Yucheng.
Shen Yucheng was momentarily speechless; wasn’t he planning to hide it forever?
No one anticipated Xi Siwei would find Lin Qianqian and even create an identity impersonation issue.
Now, Lin Qianqian is locked up, and Shen Yucheng is undeniably involved.
Causing the sisters to nearly be at each other’s throats.
That’s why Shen Youran was so angry she couldn’t say a word earlier; she called Shen Yucheng here but didn’t speak, leaving them uncomfortable and letting them feel her despair.
"Lou Xi, we didn’t expect..."
"There are many things you didn’t expect! You should have foreseen this when separating me and mom, and you’ll pay the price for what you’ve done!"
Lou Xi was trembling with anger.
Qin Mobai walked over and gently held Lou Xi’s shoulder. The doctor had warned her against getting upset, as her health wasn’t good, and prior health regimens risk going to waste.
"I didn’t expect things to turn out like this; I’m already doing all I can to remedy it."
"Are you really trying to fix it? After Lin Qianqian was taken away, you probably only thought about how not to expose this! Now everyone knows about it, and you’re only thinking of distancing yourself. Please, don’t appear before me and mom again; stop making mom suffer!"
Lou Xi turned away from Shen Yucheng and the others, tears swirling in her eyes.
Seeing Lou Xi’s back, Shen Yucheng wanted to say something but saw Qin Mobai’s cold gaze, so he didn’t dare utter another word.
He lowered his head, took his wife’s hand, and cleanly left from there.
To Shen Yucheng, this place now felt like hell, and it was better to leave.
After Shen Yucheng and his wife left the villa, Shen Ruozhuo didn’t get in the car with them.
"Dad, Mom, I’m staying here. If anything happens, I’ll call you."
Shen Yucheng looked at Shen Ruozhuo, who had changed markedly in recent days, feeling she had shed her sharp aura and become peaceful.
He didn’t say anything else, just nodded; after all, he was unwilling to stay here.
After the two left, Shen Ruozhuo stood at the door, hesitating.
