Chapter 39: Still Some Unfinished Business
Ji Ning was timid and did not dare to speak, but she still carefully moved forward and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Shen Hanxing, firmly expressing her support for her sister-in-law’s decision.
Shen Hanxing’s heart softened, and she lightly scolded them, "What are you all fooling around for? Get back here."
These children seemed cold on the outside, but they were very soft on the inside. Perhaps it was because of the bad experiences they encountered in their lives, they built up many walls to better protect themselves.
She knew that Ji Yang and Ji Zhou were worried about her, but Shen Hanxing never did anything unprepared, nor would she make promises that she was not sure of.
She can save this orchid because this was not the first time she encountered this variant. The suffering in her life also brought her many magical experiences. As the saying goes, God never mistreats those who strived to survive. When He closes a door, He would also open a window...
Shen Hanxing was full of confidence and certainty. She never doubted her ability. It was precisely due to her temperament that she was able to survive all those hardships and obstacles time and time again.
Old Master Zhuang looked deeply at her, his gaze scrutinizing and sizing her up. Although he did not immediately respond, his attitude already softened.
At this moment, Zhuang Hengyu, who was watching from the crowd, suddenly said, "Grandfather, since Mrs. Ji said that she has a way, let her try. It’s not like you’re losing anything. At most, you’ll have to wait three months before you hold a funeral for your precious orchid. But what if Mrs. Ji is successful? You’ll get your orchid back. This deal doesn’t hurt you no matter how you think about it."
"Brat, how dare you talk to me like that!"
When Old Master Zhuang saw him, a gentle smile appeared on his serious face. Although he looked like he was about to strike him, all he did was raise his walking stick and swing it down on him gently. It did not hurt at all.
Zhuang Hengyu pretended to cry in pain a few times, causing Old Master Zhuang to scold him again. "You brat, I didn’t even use much strength, why are you shouting that it hurts!"
