“What you said is wrong. Who knew that this house would be demolished? Now, this huge amount of demolition money should not be yours alone. A young lady like you who doesn’t even know who your father is. Your mother relied on the help of her family to raise you. I think you are an ungrateful wretch.”

Shen Hui’s eldest aunt, Shen Ya, her eyes instantly turned red with anxiety. She had never thought that this old house could be demolished. Who knew that Shen Hui’s mother’s house was actually within the scope of demolition? Wouldn’t that mean she had become rich overnight?

Once Shen Hui’s mother died, this little girl, Shen Hui, would benefit. No matter what, she had to get the money back.

“Eldest aunt, my mother is no longer around. When you say these things that go against your heart, aren’t you afraid that my mother will look for you in your dreams when you are sleeping at night?”

Shen Hui sneered. Back when her mother, Shen Ran, brought her to her parents’ house, her eldest aunt just stood by and watched coldly. She even cursed at her. Where was the extra care that Shen Ya had promised?

“You little wretch, I’m going to teach you a lesson on behalf of your mother today.” As Shen Ya spoke, she was about to make her move. Shen Hui subconsciously closed her eyes, but the pain that she imagined was not there.

Shen Hui opened her eyes. She did not know when Jing Heng had appeared beside her. He grabbed Shen Ya’s wrist with his hand and swung it forcefully. “This is the Shen family, not a place where you can behave atrociously.”

“Who are you? Why are you here?” Shen Ya frowned. Only then did she realize that a person she did not know had appeared in this house.

“Let me introduce myself. My name is Jing Heng. I’m Shen Hui’s husband. We just got our marriage certificate yesterday.” Jing Heng stood in front of Shen Hui and shielded her behind him. It was self-evident that he was protecting her.

“What?” Shen Ya was shocked and looked at Jing Heng and Shen Hui fiercely. “Shen Hui, where did you find this wild man? I think you are as shameless as your mother and do all kinds of despicable things.”

“Slap!”

“Eldest aunt, I advise you not to be rude. This is my home, and you’re not welcome here.”

Shen Hui rubbed her hands. She didn’t expect the slap to hurt so much.

“You wretched woman, how dare you hit me? Gao Qiang, catch this wretched woman. I’m going to teach her a lesson on behalf of her mother. I’m going to show her what it means to respect the old and love the young.” Shen Ya covered her face, and her face was full of anger.

She didn’t expect Shen Hui, who was usually quiet, to suddenly make a move. She was caught off guard.

Gao Qiang wanted to go forward, but when he saw Jing Heng’s cold expression, he subconsciously opened his mouth and stepped back.

“You coward, come on, don’t you see that your mother was beaten up by others?” Shen Ya was even angrier. She was usually showing off, but now she became cowardly?

“Eldest aunt, the agreement was very clear. My mother will take care of my grandmother, and the house will be left to my mother. These two houses belong to my mother, Shen Ran, alone and have nothing to do with you. This demolition money has nothing to do with you. If you continue to badger me, then we can only meet in court.”

“Rubbish, do you think you can scare me with your words? Let me tell you, you have to spit out this demolition money today.”

Shen Ya glared at Gao Qiang in annoyance. He was useless at the critical moment.

“Jing Heng, since my eldest aunt doesn’t want to leave, call the police. I want to sue them for trespassing.” Shen Hui sneered. She didn’t want to give Shen Ya a chance to pester her.

“Shen Hui, we are your only relatives, you shouldn’t be too ruthless.”

“Ruthless? Eldest aunt, what I do is nothing compared to what you did..”
