Shen Xue couldn’t believe her ears. Did Grandpa Shen Yan order her to be barred from the old residence?

One must know that her parents had always praised her for being able to gain the affection of the people at Shen family’s old residence and to be able to enter and leave the Shen family’s old residence as she pleased.

​

If her mother found out that she was banned by Shen Yan from entering the old residence, she would surely be beaten when she returned home.

“Dad, tell me quickly, what’s going on?” Second Aunt was unusually gentle and kind, but even she got a little anxious.

Shen Xu looked at his mother in puzzlement. Since when did his mother become so quick-tempered?

Shen Yan sighed deeply and recounted the reaction of the bodyguard that day.

At first, he was also curious why Shen Yu ignored Shen Xue for no apparent reason, to the point that he didn’t even want to see her.

After he had learned what happened, he could not help but get furious.

He even felt a little ashamed. He thought that all Shen family members knew to treat people with sincerity and integrity. Why was Shen Xue so different?

“This child, how could she be so cunning?” After Third Aunt heard the full story, she could not believe it either.

Shen Xue was only nine years old, and her ploy went so deep that it made even an adult like her shudder.

Third Aunt looked at Shen Nan beside her and warned, “I’m telling you, stay away from Shen Xue in the future. Don’t be so stupid not even knowing that you’ve been betrayed.”

“I, I didn’t. I really saw…”

“What did you see? Did you forget that you rushed over together with Shen Yu and the bodyguards after hearing the sound?”

Shen Xue wanted to argue, but was mercilessly interrupted by Shen Yan.

Shen Yan was extremely disappointed. Even now, Shen Xue still refused to admit her wrongdoing.

“I…”

Shen Xue could no longer find an excuse.

She didn’t expect Shen Yan to expose her so mercilessly.

“At such a young age, you’re already planning such appalling schemes. I think it’s better for your parents to take you back home and discipline you properly. In the future, it’s better for you not to come to the Shen family’s old residence.” Old Lady Shen’s face was also filled with anger.

After hearing what Shen Yan said, all she felt was anger.
