On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Lu Xuemei immediately called Shen Jing. She started the conversation with a commanding tone, “Shen Jing, I’ve heard about your situation with Zhang Lili. Since nothing major has happened, there’s no need to make it so serious. Go to the police station now, reconcile with the Zhang family, and have the police release Zhang Lili.”

After Lu Xuemei finished speaking, there was no immediate response from Shen Jing on the other end. Lu Xuemei frowned and was very dissatisfied. She had never liked Shen Jing. Thinking about it, her tone became even colder, “Shen Jing, your existence has already brought shame to the Shen family. Don’t continue to cause trouble for the family.”

Three seconds later, a man’s voice came from the phone, low and indifferent, “Mrs. Shen, this is Fu Linyuan.”

Lu Xuemei’s face instantly froze. Fu Linyuan? The Fu Linyuan who was sent away to Jingcheng by the Fu family? How did he end up with Shen Jing’s phone? Could it be that they were together? This shameless woman, Shen Jing, is still in college and already fooling around with men, especially with Fu Linyuan, the playboy abandoned by the Fu family!

“Where is Shen Jing? Let her answer the phone!” Lu Xuemei felt that Shen Jing was too disgraceful, and her face burned with embarrassment. Shen Jing was just as shameless as her mother, getting involved with men at such a young age. What future could she have with someone like Fu Linyuan, a man who was sent away?

Fu Linyuan didn’t answer. Sitting with his legs crossed on the sofa, he unbuttoned one of his collar buttons, his narrow phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, exuding a cool and unapproachable charisma. “Mrs. Shen, since you called, you must know what happened. Zhang Lili instigated people to bully Shen Jing, and Shen Jing almost got into trouble. Yet you want her to reconcile with the Zhang family?”

On the other end, Lu Xuemei’s eyebrows slowly furrowed. The situation seemed to be more serious than she thought. But… wasn’t Shen Jing fine? It wouldn’t be wise to offend the Qiao family since the old master of the Mu family was still staying at their house.

“Isn’t Shen Jing fine now? Since she’s fine, don’t ruin Zhang Lili’s life any further. I am Shen Jing’s aunt and her guardian. If I say we reconcile with the Zhang family, then we will,” Lu Xuemei said.

“Hmph.” Fu Linyuan let out a cold laugh from his throat. “Mrs. Shen, Shen Jing is your niece. Her innocence was almost ruined by someone, yet you’re somagnanimous to reconcile with the perpetrator. I wonder how the noble ladies of Hua City would view you if they found out about this?”

Lu Xuemei also knew that her decision would be shameful if it got out, but she was considering the bigger picture! She didn’t want to continue arguing with Fu Linyuan, so she asked him to pass the phone to Shen Jing. She couldn’t win against Fu Linyuan, but that doesn’t mean that she could not persuade Shen Jing. As long as Shen Jing still wanted to return to the Shen family, she had to listen to her.

“Mrs. Shen, Old Master Shen and Mr. Shen dote on Shen Jing the most. Do Old Master Shen and Mr. Shen know that you are treating Shen Jing this way now?” Fu Linyuan’s face showed no trace of a smile. He said coldly, “Shen Jing is mine now.You have no right to interfere in her matters. Be careful not to overstep your boundaries in the future, or you might end up getting broken by someone.”

On the other end of the phone, Lu Xuemei’s face turned pale. She couldn’t come up with anything to refute. She really couldn’t afford to make the matter too big. The Shen family cherished Shen Jing the most, and if Old Master Shen and her husband, Shen Shouchuan, knew that she had mistreated Shen Jing, they would never let her off.

After a while, the sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, and Shen Jing came out. Fu Linyuan hung up the phone, then waved to Shen Jing, “Come here, let me blow-dry your hair.”

Shen Jing walked over, her wet hair draping over her shoulders. She said, “I can do it myself.”

Ignoring her, Fu Linyuan forcefully pulled Shen Jing onto his lap, then turned on the hairdryer and helped her dry her hair. The warm air from the hairdryer felt comfortable, and Shen Jing went along with it, not getting up.

After Fu Linyuan finished drying Shen Jing’s hair, he applied some hair oil. While Shen Jing was doing her skincare routine, he sent a message to Mu Sinian, “Ten minutes, find out how the Zhang family contacted the Shen family.”

Mu Sinian replied, “Brother, I’m with a girl! I’ve already taken my pants off halfway!”

Fu Linyuan replied, “You have nine minutes left.”

Mu Sinian was speechless.

Three minutes later, Mu Sinian sent a message, “Brother, I found out. It was the Qiao family who contacted the Shen family.”

The Qiao family… Fu Linyuan lowered his head and let out a cold laugh.

On the other side, at the Qiao family, they were having dinner. Qiao Boyue had been waiting for a response from Zhang Lili’s mother, so she seemed a little absent-minded.
