She is the most beautiful rose

Chapter 2 There is no need to escape from marriage
"You!" Shen Luo clenched her hands, half of her face turned red, and she stared at her in shame and anger.

Shen Manzhi retracted his hand and looked up at her slowly, his expression dark and gloomy, his voice methodical, "The Shen family has been studying etiquette and integrity for more than twenty years, but can't you learn how to speak?"

Shen Luo endured the pain and smiled sarcastically, "You have been out there for so many years, how can you compare to me? Why should you educate me? Am I wrong? I am afraid that the uncle who slept with me gave you the car today, right?"

Shen Manzhi curled his lips, "Want it?"

The woman was so charming when she smiled. Shen Luo was filled with hatred and jealousy, and wanted to slap her back. Just as he raised his hand, a voice came from behind him, "Shen Luo!"

Shen Duanwen saw this scene as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, and his face turned dark.

Also coming in side by side was Jiang Xu, a young man with a suit jacket draped over his arm. He had just returned from the company and had a stern face without any emotion.

The son that Xie Lanyu brought over was two years older than Shen Manzhi. Shen Luo called him brother. The two siblings had a good relationship, but they were half-father.

Shen Luo glanced at Jiang Xu first, then covered his beaten face and looked at Father Shen with tears in his eyes, "Dad..."

Shen Duanwen's eyes turned to his two daughters. When he understood the reason, he looked at the eldest daughter on the steps with calm eyes.

Jiang Xu never cared about this and staggered away and left first.

Shen Duanwen suppressed his temper and stepped forward, carefully looked at Shen Luo's face, and turned back to give Shen Manzhi a sharp look.

Then she looked at Shen Duanwen frowning and said to Shen Luo, "I'll apply some medicine later. When your sister comes back this time, you can help her a little bit. We'll talk about it after the engagement banquet is over."

She has such a bad reputation, how can she be taught a lesson?Shen Manzhi raised the corners of his mouth slightly to hide some of his emotions, then turned around and went in.

When she thought that the woman was going to marry into the Qin family, Shen Luo's eyes flashed with cruelty, but the one she was going to marry was the neglected young master of the Qin family. Shen Luo felt relieved again. Based on the woman's worldly manners, even if she got in. The Qin family's door will not be easy either.

After Shen Luo curled her lips contemptuously, she changed her gloominess just now and followed Shen Duan Wen dignifiedly.

At the huge dining table, the main seat was occupied by Mrs. Shen, with Shen Duanwen and Xie Yulan sitting on one side.

Shen Manzhi hasn't been back to this place to eat for a long time, because Shen Luo just came in and Jiang Xu went upstairs to change clothes, so the other side was still empty.

Without hesitation, she sat directly next to the main seat.

Xie Yulan smiled at Shen Manzhi, "Manzhi, eat more when you get home. You've lost a lot of weight outside." After saying that, he filled a bowl of soup and handed it to her.

A pair of well-maintained hands held a delicate porcelain bowl towards Shen Manzhi.

Shen Luo came over and stopped, looking at the woman with a smile on her lips. She waited for a few seconds before taking the soup and putting it aside, "Thank you, auntie."

In the 20 years since this woman was married, she had never called her mom. Later, her temper became more and more rebellious, and she never even called her aunt.

The word "Auntie" made Xie Yulan's eyes shrink, and then she saw Shen Luo and called her over.

Seeing that her seat was taken, Shen Luo suppressed her temper, sat next to Xie Yulan, and called "Mom" softly.

Xie Yulan looked sideways at her daughter gently. When she was close, she saw the obvious red marks on Shen Luo's face. She was stunned, turned to Shen Duanwen and said, her words were a little cold, "Why are you angry with Luo Luo?"

Shen Manzhi put his slender hand on the armrest of the chair, and the fingers of his other hand rubbed the wall of the porcelain bowl containing the soup.

Shen Duanwen's eyes fell on Shen Manzhi opposite him and he said nothing. Xie Lanyu followed and looked over. He understood for a moment, his expression softened, and he said softly, "Manzhi, what did Luoluo do?"

Shen Manzhi stopped smiling, his face instantly returned to indifference, his eyes slightly raised, "What do you care about me?"

Xie Yulan's expression was slightly stunned, and the smile on her face a second ago was a bit funny.

Jiang Xu helped the old lady come down from upstairs, sat on the main seat, looked at Shen Manzhi next to him, and then pulled away the seat beside her.

There is a rule at the Shen family's dinner table: treat elders with respect.Since the old lady wanted to come down to eat, she had to wait until she sat down before eating, so when she saw the bowl of soup in Shen Manzhi's hand, the old lady's eyes darkened.

Shen Manzhi put the soup in front of grandma, "It was just cooked in the kitchen. Drink some soup before meals. It is good for your health."

Shen Luo now understood the reason why her mother wanted to bring soup to Shen Manzhi, but it was resolved by the woman. She looked at her grandma gently and said, "Grandma has always been in good health."

Shen Manzhi didn't answer, and only looked at the old man with a beautiful face.

After hearing Shen Manzhi's words, the old lady's expression became gentle. When she looked at Shen Luo, she could clearly see the red mark on Shen Luo's face, "What's wrong?"

"...Grandma." Shen Luo looked at the old lady with tears in her eyes.

"Yulan, take Luo Luo down and take care of it." The old lady spoke in a slightly serious tone, but did not ask why.

Xie Yulan glanced at Shen Manzhi, then looked at the old lady, "Mom, Luoluo..."

"Take him down to deal with it. He's crying and talking about something at the dinner table. It's very disturbing to watch."

……

Shen Duanwen sat on the side with a heavy expression.

Xie Yulan raised her eyes and looked at the person opposite, pulled her daughter and went down.

Without the mother and daughter in sight, Shen Manzhi felt better and finally had a good meal at this place.

"Manzhi, come to my room later." The old lady didn't eat much and was a little weak. She was helped up by the housekeeper.

Shen Duanwen still had to deal with work, so he took a tissue and wiped his mouth, and said in a calm voice, "I will stay home for two days until the engagement. Don't go out."

Shen Manzhi put down his chopsticks, "Impossible." Jiang Xu lowered his eyes and saw the woman's wrist, which was white and thin.

"I'm done eating." Jiang Xu stood up and left the restaurant. He was not interested in participating in the fight between father and daughter.

Shen Duanwen was handsome and handsome. Although he was middle-aged, he still had a calm and oppressive air. His tone was even deeper and deeper, "Don't think about running away from marriage. The Qin family's status is enough to clean up your mess."

Shen Manzhi curled up his lower lip, "That's nice to say. What's the status of the Qin family? After all, it's me who has the upper hand. How did Xie Yulan convince you? You went to the Qin family to propose this marriage. Didn't you think that the Shen family was too licky? "

Shen Duanwen's face darkened, "How did your mother teach you in the first place!"

Shen Manzhi straightened his back and his beautiful eyes were cold at the moment, "You are not qualified to mention it."

He, Shen Duanwen, knew best what happened when the first wife of the Shen family died.

The next moment she calmed down her emotions and said softly, "Don't force me like this. I've been here for more than 20 years. An engagement is nothing. I don't need to run away."

After saying that, he pushed away the chair and went upstairs.

The old lady's room was on the second floor. Shen Manzhi stood at the door and knocked on the door, "Grandma, it's me."

There was a response from inside, and Shen Manzhi pushed the door open and went in. The old lady was sitting on the sofa, and there was a fine tea set on the coffee table.

The housekeeper came in in time to make tea for the two of them, then closed the door and went out.

The old lady didn't let her sit down. She just took a sip of tea slowly and then said, "The Qin eldest son is coming over the day after tomorrow. Don't go out for these two days."

Everyone in the Shen family knew that this old man did not like this notorious eldest lady.

But Shen Manzhi's attitude towards the old lady has always been gentle, "I will stay here at night, but not during the day."

She didn't bother to see the mother and daughter.

There was silence in the room for a while. Shen Manzhi did not explain, but made his position clear with just one sentence.

The old lady's face darkened, "This is your home."

They all told her not to go out, but they had never wanted her to go home before. They were just afraid that they would not be able to find anyone at the critical moment and things would go wrong.

Shen Manzhi lowered his eyebrows and smiled nonchalantly. Under the bright lights, it looked white and beautiful, much like her biological mother's nobility and gentleness. The old lady looked at her, and her expression was startled.

"I know, I'll be back in the evening."

When Shen Manzhi left the old lady's room, he happened to bump into Jiang Xu coming down the corner from the third floor.

The intersection between the two people is also not much. When Jiang Xu was a child, he grew up in the home of an aunt of Xie Yulan's natal family. Later, his aunt passed away and he was taken over by Xie Yulan. He was already married at that time. He was in college and rarely at home, so the two of them were very close. Meet less.

Shen Manzhi passed by and went upstairs to his room.

In the past two days, Shen Manzhi did not go to the club. Instead, he sat quietly in the coffee shop and went home in the evening.

Compared to the past where I always hung out with a group of people who were not doing their jobs properly, I felt a little strangely calm.

Zhou Mi saw the man half-bent down, his lean waist bent over the table, his beauty suddenly revealed.

In the evening, this person is going to the Shen family to have dinner and meet the Shen family member.

He leaned against the hollow railing, and there was a billiard court protruding downstairs.

Qin Yanfeng finished playing the remaining balls, leaned over, lit a cigarette, and looked at his watch.

"Are you leaving?" Zhou Mi looked at his movements.

"Well, it took half an hour." The man had a cigarette in his mouth and his expression was very lazy.

Arriving at Shen's house half an hour late, Zhou Mi understood, "Hey, I heard that Shen Manzhi has been quite peaceful these past two days. It's hard to stay peaceful in a coffee shop for two days. This is not like her."

What was Shen Manzhi like before?He was so rebellious that he would either hang out with the regulars at nightclubs or hang out with a group of people from different religions in the old city. Almost no one in the circle wanted to interact with him.

Qin Yanfeng turned his head and glanced at Zhou Mi, "A lot of people pay attention to her?"

Zhou Mi was stunned, "Who? You mean Shen Manzhi?"

Then he reacted with amusement on his face, "Although that woman has a bad reputation, many men in Huaicheng miss her.

Shen Manzhi once fought a great battle in the circle. At that time, his temperament and aura were unparalleled. Men liked him and women were jealous. Because he was always hanging out in nightclubs, his reputation naturally became worse and worse..."

Zhou Mi actually didn't see that woman very often, but there were more young masters around him, so he had more ears to listen to, and they kept chattering away.

But the people concerned didn't really want to hear it.

Because the platform on the first floor was designed to protrude, Qin Yanfeng caught a glimpse of the woman downstairs who was also leaning against the railing.

A few strands of her casually tied hair were scattered around her slender and white neck. The black and white were distinct and extremely alluring.

She is clearly dressed well, but she is inexplicably seductive.

The man looked away, with a cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth, took the coat from the waiter's hand and left.
