train. 。Su He tried to hail another car, but just like before, every car that stopped after her request heard she wanted to pay later and shook their heads in refusal. 。Just as Su He was about to resi...Su He returned safely, and all six children were also home. Gu Qingcheng was naturally overjoyed, giving the servants a holiday, and even personally cooked a table full of dishes. 。The table was overflowing with dishes, with more meat than vegetables. They looked delicious and appetizing. 。Su He went back to her room, took a comfortable bath, and slept until almost dusk. She was then dragged by Shen Muyin to chat for half a day until Gu Qingcheng called them to dinner. Only then did she finally have some peace and quiet. 。"Nannan, you've lost weight. Eat more." 。Gu Qingcheng kept serving Su He vegetables, piling up the meat dishes in her bowl until it resembled a small hill. 。Thank you, Mom 。Su He looked up at Gu Qingcheng and smiled. She turned her head to look around at their family members and said apologetically, "These past few days I worried Mom and Dad and my brothers and sisters." 。Gu Qingcheng hurriedly comforted: "Don't think that way." 。 。And, you saved many people by chance, which is a great merit. 。Others echoed in agreement. 。They knew the truth about Su He's disappearance and sent people to the village for revenge, only to discover that the village held a much deeper secret. 。They did not interact with the outside world, but they kidnapped women from City A and nearby urban areas, forcing them into marriage and taking their children back to the village as labor. 。
The police cracked a large-scale human trafficking case involving women and children, making headlines in A city for a while.
"Actually, this isn't all my doing" 。Su He said embarrassedly, if it hadn't been for Huo Chen Xi, she might have become one of them. 。
"Little sister, don't be modest
Even the police say you've done a great job and are preparing to apply for an award from the city for you. 。 。Upon hearing this news, Gu Qingcheng was even more delighted and raised her glass for a toast with her entire family. 。In the midst of the commotion, Shen Niannian, seated across from Su He, lowered her eyes and silently ate from her bowl. 。"Niàn Niàn is growing and eating more. " 。Shen Zhaolin glanced at everyone thoughtfully, and also put a chopstick of green vegetables for Shen Niannian, which she loved to eat. 。Thank you, Dad. 。Shen Niannian said obediently. 。
Towards the end of a family dinner, the third son, Shen Yunchen, finally rushed back.
He hurriedly sat down. After Gu Qingcheng introduced Su He to him, he took out a box and handed it to Su He with a calm and indifferent expression: "Gift" 。Su He took it and hurriedly expressed her thanks. 。Shen Yunchen ignored her, eating his food with large bites as if he hadn't eaten in ages. 。Gu Qingcheng was afraid that Su He would have any ill feelings, so she explained for him: "The third brother is just like this." 。"High IQ, but what about emotional intelligence..."
She sighed dramatically and shook her head. 。Su He didn't mind at all. She knew Ryan, the tech genius, was deeply engrossed in his research and had no interest in anything else. 。He could think of giving her a gift, that was already a surprise. 。"Sixth Sister, this gift was chosen by me and Third Brother for you. Do you still like it" Shen Niannian, who had been silent all evening, suddenly spoke. 。Su He learned about Shen Niannian's true identity from Shen Muyin, and finally understood why Shen Niannian had always been weird towards her. She smiled friendly: "Good" 。Upon opening the gift's wrapping, Su He saw a robot inside and couldn't help but be stunned. 。"Liujie doesn't like it" Shen Niannian blinked, asking disappointedly. 。Shen Yunchen also looked over, his expression indifferent, as if he would just take the gift back if Su He nodded. 。Su He smiled and shook her head: "I just didn't expect that the third brother would give a girl such a gift" 。"Shen Xingfan and Shen Muyin on the side also chimed in: "Third brother, I'd say you've got terminal straight man syndrome, no cure." 。Even Shen Ruifeng, who was usually stoic and unreadable, shook his head and sighed. 。Shen Yunchen looked at Shen Niannian in confusion. Before, it was she who said that the robot he designed with his own hands was the most meaningful, but looking at everyone's expressions, it seemed not to be so. 。Shen Niannian explained: “This was designed by Third Brother himself.” 。Shen Muyin still wanted to say something, but Su He had already spoken: "I like it very much, thank you, Third Brother." 。Looking into Su He's clear and honest eyes, Shen Yunchen felt a blush creep up his ears as he felt embarrassed by her sincerity: "I like it, that's good..." 。"Sister Six, this robot's design has some flaws. After Third Brother finishes his design, it will be upgraded." 。You need to protect this well. 。"Shen Niannian smiled sweetly and reminded " 。"Third brother, you gave your younger sister a flawed gift, aren't you being too heartless" 。Shen Muyin blurted out 。Gu Qingcheng immediately glared at him and turned back to Shen Niannian: "Little Seven, you've said so much, you must be thirsty. Have some soup." 。The originally warm and cozy family dinner suddenly became awkward. 。At this moment, Lao Si Shen Yueze, who had just finished surgery for the mayor, hurried back. 。Feeling that something was off, and seeing a robot in front of Su He, I guessed it was a welcome gift from Shen Yuechen. 。Although he knew Su He had returned safely, he was too busy to prepare a greeting in advance. 。
At least he didn't come back empty-handed.
The mayor's wife sent a gift of longevity ginseng to Su He: "Little sister, this thousand-year ginseng is just a greeting gift. I hope you don't mind." 。Gu Qingcheng's face suddenly became difficult to look at. 。The greeting was insincere, one perfunctory, the other obviously showing disregard for Su He. It's unclear who they were trying to intimidate. 。She looked at Su He with concern, but Su He didn't seem to care at all. He happily accepted the gift and politely said, "Thank you, Fourth Brother." 。A reunion dinner, besides Su He, who had been hungry for a long time and ate happily, everyone else more or less had their own thoughts. 。"Nannan, come to my study with me. I have something important to tell you." 。After dinner, Shen Zhaolin got up and exchanged a glance with Gu Qingcheng. He then said to Su He: 。
Not until Su He followed Shen Zhao Lin out did Gu Qing Cheng look around at her six children, her gaze finally settling on Shen Nian Nian.
Shen Niannian, under his gaze that seemed to pierce through everything, gradually lowered her head. The corners of her eyes reddened slightly, and after a short while, large teardrops fell one by one. 。
"Xiaoqi, what's wrong" Shen Yueze, unaware of what had happened, reached out and handed Shen Niannian a tissue with his long fingers, comforting her, "If something happens, tell Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother will help you get revenge"
"It wasn't until she mentioned it that Shen Niannian's tears flowed even faster. "
Shen Yunchen wanted to comfort, but didn't know what to say, so she could only helplessly look at Shen Rufeng. 。"You've all grown up now, your wings are strong." 。"Gu Qingcheng raised her chin, her face slightly contorted with displeasure. "Whoever wants to fly, I will never stop them." 。But since you are staying in this house, don't forget the house rules. 。She got up, leaving the bowl and chopsticks unwashed, then turned and went upstairs. 。The remaining people looked at each other in stunned silence. 。Shen Rufeng raised his hand and pushed up the metal gold-rimmed glasses, glancing over at Shen Yunchen, Shen Yueze, and Shen Niannian sitting on the other side. His thin lips curled into a slight smile: "Last time you guys didn't come back because of something, do you know why I didn't let anyone go get you"The three, who had been afraid of Shen Rufeng since childhood, shivered at the same time. 。She has been the lifelong obsession of my parents and me, and more importantly, she is a family member who shares our blood. 。Now that she's finally back, she can barely put her down. Whoever dares to make her feel wronged is basically going against her parents. 。"Shen Rufeng spoke softly, "He's also against me." 。A family should love and care for each other, treating each other with sincerity. 。His gaze swept over Shen Niannian lightly, carrying an unintentional warning: "Little Seven, what do you think" made a note in his heart. He straightened up and looked at Su He: "I've already apologized, can I and my people leave now"Su He leaned sideways, and Huo Chenyi took a step forward. As he passed Su He...
