Chapter 1490: Bai Chenyao’s Tender Care 11

"What a pity... she doesn’t have that fortune!"

"Shen Xin!"

Mu Yi and Mu Haiyang spoke simultaneously, their faces filled with identical hatred.

Even Mu Tiantian couldn’t help but chuckle softly.

"Aunt Shen, what you said isn’t right. It’s not that my mom doesn’t have that fortune, but rather she has seen through it and realized, so she chose to leave. Unlike you, you indeed have that fortune, holding on to the title of Mrs. Mu. But in the end, what kind of life do you lead? You know better than we do!"

"Tsk... the so-called fortune and destiny are truly elusive!"

Because Shen Xin forced things, so although she has been nominally Mu Yi’s wife for most of her life, she is worse off than a wife from an ordinary family.

As a young lady from the noble Shen Family, she was destined since birth to be elegant and noble, basked in glory and riches, lacking nothing, even the precious darling of the Shen Family.

Because of a forced marriage, she waited for more than twenty years, hoping for feelings that ultimately turned into a bubble due to the return of Mu Tiantian and Mu Haiyang.

Really, it’s both ironic and laughable!

Shen Xin’s eyes suddenly fell straight onto Mu Tiantian.

While beside her, Mu Yi and Mu Haiyang almost simultaneously stood up, shielding Mu Tiantian behind them, glaring at her.

Seeing this, Shen Xin felt a sting in her heart, resenting Mu Yi even more and feeling more hostile towards Mu Tiantian, wishing she could destroy her entirely.

Watching Mu Yi and his son protect Mu Tiantian so tightly, Shen Xin couldn’t help but laugh softly.

"What’s this about? Worried I’ll do something to her?"

Shen Xin lowered her eyes, looking at her own fair and slender fingers.

Born with a silver spoon, although her marital feelings were unfulfilling, like living a widow’s life, in terms of material, she always had abundance, so she maintained herself very well.

Her hands were fair and slender, skin smooth, clearly a lady who never indulged in hard labor.

"I recall she learned judo, and I... if I lay hands on her, I’m afraid I’ll be the one getting beaten, not her."

The implication was that Mu Yi and Mu Haiyang didn’t need to act like they were facing a formidable enemy.

Mu Tiantian also regained composure from her father’s and brother’s sudden protection, quickly reaching out and smiling as she pulled them aside.

"Aunt Shen is truly a wise person!"

Looking at Shen Xin’s serene face, Mu Tiantian always knew Shen Xin was formidable. She smiled lightly, her voice cheerful.

"My dad and brother’s actions only prove that in their hearts, no matter how capable I am, I am a girl who needs family protection, nothing else matters!"

Shen Xin: "..."

If the things Mu Yi said earlier struck her heart directly, Mu Tiantian’s words were practically crashing into her soul.

What does it mean that no matter how capable she is, in front of her father and brother, she is forever a girl needing family protection, with nothing else mattering?

Then what about her Haiyun?

Could it be that to Mu Yi, whatever Haiyun does is expected, so even if Haiyun is exhausted, he receives no concern or comfort from his father Mu Yi?

Reflecting on Mu Yi’s stern face as he asked his daughter to go upstairs just now, Shen Xin felt the anger she had suppressed for over twenty years slowly consuming her reason.

Against one versus three, she stood no chance!

As Shen Xin was about to lose control, she suddenly lowered her eyes quickly, hiding the deep-seated hatred, tightly clenching her fists.

Without looking at Mu Yi anymore, she turned and went upstairs.
