Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 329 - Uncle Was Wrong

Shen Junxi's hug was very warm and devoid of any impure emotions.? He was genuinely really happy to see Su Wan alright and well when he spoke even his voice was shaking a tiny bit " Uncle was wrong, I shouldn't have left you behind and fought with that bastard to take you away. If not - if not, something like this would have never happened.? But don't worry, now Uncle won't leave, I will never leave you alone. I will make sure to fulfil every single wish of yours. Just watch how I spoil the heck out of you!"

Shen Junxi never intended to leave her alone but Su Bai won't let him take Su Wan away. He would always play the ' I am her father' card and Shen Junxi would be defeated. It didn't help that Su Wan was biased towards her father than her Uncle.

Su Wan paused. She didn't blame Shen Junxi at all, how was it his fault that the original Su Wan died? It was all Su Bai's fault and some of the blame lies with the original owner as well, because she wanted her father's love. Su Wan, though she never spoke it out loud, she was jealous of Su Lan and Su Yu-Cheng who were loved by her father without doing anything, so when Su Bai brainwashed Su Wan by bad-mouthing Shen Junxi, Su Wan believed him. She thought that by keeping Shen Junxi at a distance she will be able to gain the love of her father.

Of course, she was wrong, and by the time she figured everything out and learned that no matter what she did, Su Bai will never like her, it was too late.? Su Wan's uncle tried his best to give her all the comforts he could while staying away from her as the original owner wanted but the girl was too naive to hide those goodies she received. She would often share it with the Su family and by the time she learned her lesson to hide them all, the cat was out of the bag, the Su family knew about the things that Shen Junxi sent for her when she tried to hide them, she was beaten by Grandma Su and Su Bai bribed the man who was responsible for delivering those things to her.

Innocence was beautiful but when in abundance it's a curse.

For Su Wan, her innocence was a curse and later on the cause of her seat. Such a foolish girl, who was unexplainably filial and innocent, it wasn't surprising she died in the hands of those wolves. But even if she died, it was her fault from the start to end, Shen Junxi can never be blamed.

Su Wan sighed and patted her uncle's back " it's not eldest uncle's fault, it's mine. I was too stupid, I shouldn't have believed whatever my father told me"

Shen Junxi's eyes brightened but he still severely reprimanded, Su Wan as he pulled back "of course it is! That man is nothing but a dog of his hussy! Have ever you seen such a weakling like him? I can kick him to the moon and back just like that but you still believed him when he lied to you saying that I was scared of him, do I look like I need to be scared of him?"

Su Wan honestly shook her head, Shen Junxi built alone was enough to scare Su Bai, what was there for Shen Junxi to be scared of Su Bai?

" humph, you are just too innocent! Just like your mother, she was easy to fool as well, you get that from her" said Shen Junxi though he sounded as if he was complaining, his eyes were shining with a reminiscent glint " she would believe anything anyone told her and she was a really kind woman, you look just like your mother, you know that?"

Su Wan blinked her eyes, though she knew that her features were not one bit similar to Su Bai and that she didn't look like him at all.? Her sharp features were completely different to Su Bai's blunt ones- it was clear that she was a copy of her mother instead of her father. Because of this Su Wan was really happy, Su Bai was not only ugly but he was not a good father either, it would have been a thorn in her heart if she took after him.

" Really?" asked Su Wan as her heart warmed up, though she knew she looked like the late Shen Shui, it was different to when someone said it, her lips unconsciously hooked up as she smiled at her Uncle wanting to hear more about Shen Shui, this mother of her in this world.

" of course, I'm not lying, she was childish and stubborn but had a heart of gold," said Shen Junxi, then he held his hands up as if he was cradling a baby " she was this small when I first held her, so fragile and easily breakable.? On that very day, I swore to protect her and alas - I failed, come to think of it I failed to protect you as well, Wan Wan"

Shen Junxi was feeling pretty shitty at the moment, he was one of the richest in the town yet his niece, the only daughter of his dead sister was sold away like livestock. Not only did she suffer from mistreatment and torture, but she was also sold to five men like a sow to breed! How can Shen Junxi be not unhappy! How can he be not guilty, if not for her negligence and stupidity to trust others, his niece would have grown up like a princess she was!

"Eldest Uncle-"

" You old man what things are you saying? Is this what you should say when you see your niece after so long ?" Madam Zhu who rushed inside the main building, heard Shen Junxi 's words just on time, she hurriedly sauntered in and slapped Shen Junxi on the arm with her fan " no wonder the girl doesn't like you, you talk of such depressing things, even I would stay away from you or else I might lose my entire mental stability. " then she turned to look at Su Wan and " oh my! You are such a cute little doll!"

Su Wan who wanted to say something to cheer her uncle up was once again pulled in a big embrace, And this time it was full of maternal love and care.
