After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 226: Chapter 226: He doesn’t want to share a room? Chapter 226: Chapter 226: He doesn’t want to share a room? “Big brother, I’ve already decided, this matter doesn’t require anyone else’s opinion, and the dividends from the shares I hold, I don’t need either…”

“What’s yours is yours, no one can take it away.”

Qi Si had no intention of taking back his share of the dividends.

The family had so many members, and it wasn’t lacking those who used their dividend money to start their independent small firms.

There were plenty of those who made money from both ends; one less Qi Heng wasn’t going to matter.

Qi Heng stared dumbfounded at the cold and steady Qi Si in front of him, and at every icy edge on Qi Si’s body, falling into a brief silence.

Qi Heng realized at that moment how much Qi Si had shouldered over the years.

Even though Qi Si did it willingly, it inexplicably gave one a feeling of heartache.

Thinking back to his childhood, the family always doted on him the most, giving him the best of everything first; and his elder brother, who had always been so independent and quiet, never fought or scrambled for anything.

He was so sensible that it gave people peace of mind.

Perhaps that’s why their family favored Qi Heng a bit more.

Because he was sensible, he was often overlooked.

“If mom asks about this, big brother doesn’t need to worry. I’ve already explained everything to her clearly, there’s no need to discuss it with her again.”

Qi Si glanced at him indifferently and remained silent.

After thinking for a while, Qi Heng still said, “Recently, mom suddenly wanted to visit Shen City to see sister-in-law. I took over and went to Shen City myself, met with sister-in-law alone and persuaded her to retire from the entertainment industry. Sister-in-law seemed quite angry at the time, and although I think she must have mentioned it to big brother, I still wanted to make things clear.”

Qi Si’s dark eyes were slightly cold, and he continued to look at him in silence.

Qi Heng felt his heart skip erratically under that silently severe gaze, and he became somewhat nervous.

Qi Heng’s voice trembled slightly, and he appeared agitated, “Big brother, you know better than I do what kind of family Qi is. When they hear certain rumors, they stir up mom, and mom is that kind of temper…”

“Mind your own business.”

The words uttered by Qi Si were devoid of any emotion.

So cold that they sent shivers down one’s spine.

Qi Heng bowed his head and said nothing.

After saying that, Qi Si didn’t bother to say more to Qi Heng, as if saying another word would be a waste of his time.

Qi Heng smiled bitterly in his heart.

He had underestimated the importance of Shen Yan in Qi Si’s heart.

Yet he was also somewhat surprised that Shen Yan could hold such weight with his brother, and couldn’t help but admire Shen Yan’s skill.

Even his difficult brother could be attracted to Shen Yan…

It was as if Qi Heng had stumbled upon some incredible secret, his heart trembling and unable to calm down for a long time.

Qi Si was the first to leave, the workaholic who, against all odds, wasn’t staying at the company to deal with business matters.

He drove off alone.

The Shen Family.

As Shen Yan heard the sound of the car stopping and the greeting from the Shen family’s butler, she walked out from the back yard and blinked at the person getting out of the car, “Mr. Qi, weren’t you heading to the company?”

Generally, when Qi Si went to the company to handle things, he would be busy for a long time before returning home.

“There’s nothing at the company.”

Qi Si greeted Gu Ting.

Pulling a smile, Gu Ting invited Qi Si inside, “Shen Zuo and Ah Zheng will be home for lunch, you might as well join us.”

With Shen Zuo and Shen Zheng present, the atmosphere wouldn’t be so cold it could freeze.

Qi Si nodded, “Sorry for the intrusion.”

“No trouble at all, I just don’t want to hold up your work,” Gu Ting said.

Not long after Qi Si sat down in the living room, Shen Zuo and Shen Zheng returned together.

Seeing Qi Si sitting on the living room sofa was a bit surprising to them. “It’s rare for a busy person like you to have time to come to our house for dinner. When I heard my mom mention it earlier, I thought she was joking,” Shen Zheng said as he hung his suit jacket on the coat rack and sat down across the room.

When Shen Yan saw her family return, she sat up a bit straighter.

Shen Zuo carefully observed the two sitting together, a strange expression crossing his face.

Had his daughter not been terrified of Qi Si?

If Shen Zuo knew that his daughter, when at Qi Si’s place, had the nerve to scold or hit him, he would have been too shocked to speak.

“Yanyan, you’re flying back to Shen City this afternoon? Won’t you stay in Beijing a few more days?” Shen Zuo, perhaps longing for his daughter whom he hadn’t seen in a while, was reluctant to part so soon after meeting her.

Shen Yan said, “I still have some coursework to do at school, and I need to prepare for the program. I’ll stay longer on my next visit.”

“You seem to be busier than us who are busy with our careers,” observed Shen Zheng with a glance at the indifferent Qi Si, pondering whether they, busy with their own things, ever had the chance to meet up. The thought of what had happened in Hai City stopped him from continuing with his words, so he swallowed them back.

Shen Yan smiled but said nothing.

Shen Zuo, noticing Shen Yan’s restrained demeanor, raised his eyebrows, his gentle gaze darkening slightly.

The atmosphere at yesterday’s dinner was different, so nothing seemed amiss.

But here, in their own home, his daughter was behaving reservedly and with caution, which inexplicably made Shen Zuo feel strange.

He then thought of the scene from two years ago when she broke with the family and seemed to understand his daughter’s current mindset.

Shen Zuo sighed inwardly.

People in the Beijing circle said they no longer wanted their daughter Shen Yan, but in reality, they had kept an eye on her online activities.

What was infuriating was that Shen Yan’s previous actions had been very disappointing to the family.

“Qi Si, we as parents are much relieved that you’ve taken good care of Yanyan,” thanked Shen Zuo, appreciative of Qi Si bringing his daughter back. Regardless of whether Gu Ting’s claim that Shen Yan had given up on that man was true or false, it was developing in a good direction.

In this regard, he believed Qi Si deserved the most credit.

Qi Si said, “It’s what I should do.”

During the meal, no one talked much; the three men discussed business matters occasionally.

The Qi and Shen Families had a collaborative project, and the conversation centered around the business development of the two families.

Shen Yan greatly enjoyed such an atmosphere.

Previously, she could never have experienced such a warm ambience.

This must be what real family is like.

Gu Ting kept offering Shen Yan food, urging her to eat more and not to diet too much for the sake of looking thin on camera.

After the meal, the three men moved to drink tea and continued their conversation, while Shen Yan and Gu Ting went to the backyard to talk.

Gu Ting prepared many things for Shen Yan to take with her, so that she wouldn’t have to worry about what to buy.

“Have you shared a room with Qi Si?” Gu Ting suddenly asked.

Shen Yan: “…”

Seeing Shen Yan’s silence, Gu Ting’s brow furrowed slightly. “Is he unwilling?”

“It’s not that…” We haven’t reached that step yet.

“Right now, you haven’t graduated from college, and there’s no rush to have kids. Before having kids, let me know in advance so I can get ready to help you take care of them. You can’t count on Song Jinwei, and nannies are unreliable. I’ve seen too many cases of child abuse exposed online, and we can’t let our own child be looked after by such people,” Gu Ting rambled on.

She told Shen Yan to maintain a joyful state of mind and body before having children, listed various precautions, and insisted they keep an eye on Qi Si so he wouldn’t bring back any problems to harm her, among other things, making Shen Yan blush.

When Shen Yan and Qi Si left, the back seat was packed with many items.

Watching the car disappear into the distance, Gu Ting couldn’t help but sigh, “In the blink of an eye, Yanyan is getting married. I used to be so worried about whether she could manage her own life well. Seeing them like this now, I really feel much reassured.”

The way Shen Zuo held her tightened slightly. “Qi Si is such a steady person; he can guide our child correctly. In the future, don’t worry about every little thing.”

It may not have been an earth-shattering love, but such simple, mundane life was indeed what made for a good life.
