C11 Good Things Are Not Firm and Secure
"Aiya, why were you so careless? Luckily, I reminded you just now." Shen Meilin shook her head, but there was a trace of a cold sneer on her lips.
She guessed that the reason Shen Yanxi had disappeared for the past month was probably because of the items in the box.
She wanted Shen Yanxi to understand that no matter what she did, it would all be in vain.
Shen Yanxi had better identify herself as soon as possible and not have any delusions.
Shen Yanxi rubbed her red knees and stood up from the ground. She looked straight at Shen Meilin's pleased smile, and her gaze suddenly shot towards the crystal trophy on the shelf beside her.
Shen Meilin had learned ballet at the age of three, and when she was seventeen, she had finally won the National Ballet Championship, which was something she had always been proud of.
The light in Shen Yanxi's eyes deepened. She took a few steps forward and quickly held the trophy in her hand.
Shen Meilin's expression changed when she saw her actions. Her almond-shaped eyes stared at Shen Yanxi in terror, not daring to move an inch.
"Shen Yanxi!" What are you going to do? Put down my trophy! "
Contrary to Shen Meilin's nervous expression, Shen Yanxi smiled like a spring breeze. She grabbed the trophy and shook it in the air while Shen Meilin drew in a few breaths of cold air.
"Hehe, I just want to wipe the dust off my sister's trophy."
Her fingers gently slid across the trophy as if she was touching it. Shen Meilin gritted her teeth, feeling that Shen Yanxi's actions were full of provocation.
"Don't touch my trophy with your dirty hands!"
As she said that, Shen Meilin reached out her hand to snatch it, while Shen Yanxi nimbly turned her body to avoid Shen Meilin.
"Elder sister, be careful. Don't break the trophy."
"Give it back to me!" Shen Meilin snatched it again, her eyes fixed on the trophy.
Just as Shen Meilin was about to snatch the trophy away from her, Shen Yanxi suddenly placed it on the shelf, then moved to the side and stealthily placed one foot in front of Shen Meilin.
Shen Meilin felt her feet slant to the side and her body staggered. She couldn't hold back her momentum any longer and fell straight onto the shelf.
Before she fell to the ground, she had swung her arms wildly, desperately trying to grab onto something. However, she had accidentally swept away everything on the shelf, including the trophy.
BANG BANG BANG BANG. Shen Meilin was lying on the ground in a sorry state. The trophy was in pieces right in front of her eyes.
Not only that, but the medals she had won while painting, the pots she had made with her favorite people, all her prized possessions had been smashed to smithereens.
"Shen Yanxi!" Shen Meilin's eyes were bloodshot as she looked at the debris on the ground. She wished that she could rip her to shreds right away.
Bathing in Shen Meilin's hateful gaze, Shen Yanxi said innocently:
"The good things in this world are not stable, the colored clouds scatter easily and the glaze become brittle."
"Elder sister, why are you so careless?
Shen Yanxi then slowly picked up her suitcase from the ground and said to Shen Meilin before she left,
"Oh yeah, I will tell grandpa that you broke his birthday present."
"What did you say?"
Shen Meilin frowned, her eyes burning with fire.
"You actually dare to threaten me?!"
"It's not a threat, it's the truth."
The mother and daughter had never thought of letting her go, so there was no need for her to worry.
Shen Yan left the house, without any fresh feeling of revenge, but her heart was heavy.
This was because she had meticulously prepared this set of Purple Clay Pot, not only to curry favor with Old Master Shen, but also to establish herself within the Shen Family in the future.
She hadn't even taken the first step before she was unable to make it out.
Closing the bedroom door, Shen Yanxi took the scissors and carefully opened the box. However, when she saw the broken blue and white porcelain inside, she suddenly froze.
After searching for a long time, he did not find a single piece of Purple Clay Pot fragment. Instead, he saw a note:
"Don't forget your promise. If you agree to it, the item will be returned to its owner."
Staring at the vigorous writing on it, Shen Yanxi was stunned for a moment. Her mind suddenly flashed with that incomparably handsome face.
"It's Jin Hao?!" Shen Yanxi blurted out in shock, not knowing if she should be happy or worried.
She had never thought that her trip this month would be monitored by him. She even knew her purpose for coming here.
This person was much more terrifying than she had imagined!
He seemed to have calculated her hesitation and decided to force her to compromise with him.
Shen Yanxi had not slept the entire night. She felt like a little moth that had been stuck to her spider silk. Jin Hao was the hunter that controlled her life and death, which made her feel powerless.
"Second Miss, are you up yet?"
Sister-in-law's voice came from outside the door. Shen Yanxi got up and opened the door. Seeing her holding a cardboard box, her lips couldn't help but twitch with ridicule.
Sister-in-law, who was unaware of the situation, passed the paper box to Shen Yanxi and said with a smile:
"Second Miss, Madam specially prepared this dress for you, to let you wear during the Old Master's birthday banquet."
Because Shen Family was a large clan and Old Master Shen was the president of the Feng City Chamber of Commerce, many famous people would attend. With this set of clothing, the second young miss would not look shabby and would be looked down upon by others.
"Second Miss, you should quickly put it on and give it a try." Today is your first time seeing the old gramps, don't be late. "
Sister-in-law was sincerely happy for Shen Yanxi after she had gotten used to her past year of suffering.
Shen Yanxi looked at Sister-in-law and sighed inwardly.
"Thank you, Sister-in-law."
Shen Yanxi took the cardboard box and walked into the bedroom. She almost laughed when she picked up the black suit with both hands.
