A 'pfft' sounded from behind her suddenly.
Shen Yugui froze and turned around. The Fei butler had stood behind her without her noticing. He could not help but laugh.
It seemed like he had heard the entire conversation.
Shen Yugui. "..."
The Fei family's car stalled for no apparent reason and started again for no apparent reason not long after Shen Yugui got off. The butler told the chauffeur to catch up with Miss Shen, which led them to the Shen residence.
The butler looked at Shen Yugui, but her head was lowered and her gaze was directed at the floor. It was as if those words earlier were not said by her.
No one spoke for a while.
The butler could only cough lightly and say, "Miss Shen."
Shen Yugui lifted her eyes.
"I shall pick you up at the same time tonight."
Shen Yugui raised her eyebrows. Pick her up? What for?
"Today is the fifteenth."
Shen Yugui's eyebrows twitched slightly.
When she first heard that she only needed to go there on the first and fifteenth, she had even sighed in relief. She would still be able to bear it if it were only twice a month. However, today was the fifteenth? Thinking about last night… She felt like her legs were still weak.
However, she clearly understood that just like last night, not only could she not refuse, she also had to find a way to get Fei Nancheng to propose to her.
-
Shen Tianhao personally sent the Fei family butler out looking like an overeager dog. Shen Yugui almost hurled at the sight.
When the car left, Shen Tianhao turned and praised while laughing. "As expected of my beloved daughter!"
To the side, Bai Zhu clenched her fist. Her eyes were vicious. As if she thought of something, she quickly latched onto Shen Tianhao's arm. "Congxin, why didn't Mr. Fei mention anything about an engagement?"
Shen Yugui narrowed her eyes.
Bai Zhu had caught the key point immediately. As expected, she was not a simple person.
Seeing her remain silent, Bai Zhu sighed again. "All men have bad habits, and many get tired of their playthings easily. Mr. Fei wouldn't be someone like that, right? It'd be unfortunate for you if he was."
She was feigning concern for Shen Yugui on the surface, but she was actually reminding Shen Tianhao that there was a big difference between a mistress and a fiancée!
Indeed, the way Shen Tianhao looked at her had changed.
Shen Yugui lowered her head. "Mr. Fei said that the engagement will involve many aspects and would be discussed later."
Shen Tianhao's eyes darkened.
He had not been in a rush. When his daughter and Mr. Fei got engaged, the Shen family would never be lacking in resources.
However, it seemed now that Mr. Fei might only like her because it was a novel experience. How would the Fei family want such an ugly person to marry into the family? Would they not be ashamed?
Shen Tianhao narrowed his eyes. He stepped forward and handed Shen Yugui a dossier. "This is a new project from our company that I intend to collaborate on with the Fei family. I've already mentioned it to the Fei family butler earlier. When you see Mr. Fei later tonight, coax him into signing the contract."
The most important thing was to first secure the benefits.
Shen Tianhao patted her shoulder. "You're my daughter. We're family. Your dad would never treat you unfairly."
Shen Yugui sneered in her heart.
He had just tried to chase them out of the house, but now his words were as if nothing had happened.
If she had her elder sister's pure and kind character, she might have believed him.
However, Shen Yugui was not a pushover!
He wanted to sell his daughter for money, but whether she would give her consent remained to be seen.
After Shen Tianhao left with Bai Zhu, Yu Manyu immediately asked nervously, "Yugui, did Mr. Fei really agree to the engagement?"
Shen Yugui clenched her fists. Her eyes were determined. "I'll make him."
Only by becoming Fei Nancheng's fiancée would she be able to reclaim everything that belonged to her mother and her!
