“Shen Jie, our family, is different from your classmates’ family,” Qiao Wei had been mentally and physically exhausted during this time. Her face, which had always been exquisitely made up, was haggard. She said patiently, “It’s not simple to buy a horse. You also have to pay a special foster fee and hire professional personnel to take care of it. This is not a small sum of money. You know something about it.” Previously, they had also changed Shen Jie to a noble school because of the marriage alliance with the Ji family. Initially, with the Shen family’s financial resources, they wouldn’t be able to get in. However, thanks to the Ji Corporation, he was proud after Shen Jie entered the school for a long time. However, after Shen Sisi’s incident, everyone knew that the Shen family couldn’t say anything in front of the Ji Corporation. The Shen family was struggling. Shen Jie’s classmate’s family background was one level higher than the Shen family’s. Shen Jie was jealous because of the food, clothing, and expenses. Now, because his classmate bought a horse, he was making a fuss about wanting it himself.

“I don’t care! I want it! I want it!” Shen Jie could not get what he wanted and immediately began to make a fuss. He sat on the ground and cried loudly, “I want it! I want it! I want to buy a horse! I won’t get up if you don’t buy it for me!”

“What are you doing?” Shen Yong, who had just entered the door, had a gruesome expression. He said in a deep voice, “What are you making a fuss about? You are not a child anymore, and you still want to do this? You are like a madman. Where are your manners? Is this how I taught you? You are not sensible at all!”

Shen Hanxing curled her lips into a faint smile. Shen Yong’s words were fascinating. He was trying to scold someone else. Since Shen Yong did not dare to say it aloud, she pretended she did not understand. She crossed her arms and stood by the side to watch the show.

“Daddy!” Shen Jie pounced over like a small cannonball. There were a few tears on his fat face as he cried, “Mommy doesn’t want to buy me a horse. All the other students have horses, but I don’t. It is embarrassing! I want to buy a horse too!”

“What do you want? If you buy a horse, can you ride it?” Shen Yong’s face immediately sank. He scolded, “Don’t follow the trend blindly. Think about your family’s financial situation before you spend lavishly. Even if we were the richest family, our assets would be squandered by you sooner or later!” If it were in the past, Shen Yong would fulfill anything Shen Jie asked for. But now that the Shen family’s company was in turmoil. To stabilize the stock price, he had been swamped recently. He almost had to beg others for mercy. How could he bear to fork out another sum of money to buy a horse for Shen Jie?

“I can learn how to ride. My classmates all have a horse farm at home. I want a horse!” Shen Jie widened his eyes in disbelief when he saw that his father, who had always doted on him, rejected his request so firmly and coldly. He wailed and was about to cry, “Daddy doesn’t love me anymore! You used to buy me anything I wanted. I want to buy a horse! I want to ride a horse! My classmates won’t play with me if I don’t have a horse…”

Shen Yong felt helpless. He valued boys more than girls. He had only one son in his life, Shen Jie. Of course, he pampered him in his hands. He was frustrated that he couldn’t let Shen Jie get what he wanted now. “I’ve told you I can’t buy it! No matter how you fuss about it, I won’t buy it for you.”

“Buy it for me! I don’t care. I want to buy it!” Shen Yong’s words made Shen Jie explode. As he cried at the top of his voice, he used his big fat hand to flip over the coffee table and smash the decorations in the living room. “Buy me a pony! If you don’t buy me a horse, none of you will have a good life!”

“Shen Jie, stop throwing your tantrum!” Qiao Wei looked helpless. She went forward to stop Shen Jie, but he had been well-nourished since he was young. He was tall and strong. As he struggled, he directly punched Qiao Wei’s stomach. Qiao Wei’s face turned pale from the pain, and she could not speak for a long time.

Shen Jie’s sharp cries rang in her ears. The living room was filled with things that had been smashed. The apples on the fruit platter rolled to Shen Yong’s feet. Shen Yong’s heart was in turmoil, and he kicked the apples away. With a frustrated look, he shouted angrily, “Enough! Shen Jie, stop it!”

Shen Yong was used to being a loving father to Shen Jie. This was the first time Shen Jie had been so strict with him. He looked at Shen Yong with his mouth agape, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes. He cried so much that his snot and tears smudged his face.

“Who did you learn to behave like this from?” Shen Yong could not bear to look at Shen Jie’s stupid tantrum. He cursed in disbelief, “Look at you. You’re a man. You only know how to throw a tantrum. Aren’t you ashamed?”

Qiao Wei’s face turned pale. Shen Jie did not dare to say anything. He pursed his lips tightly. The entire Shen family’s house was dead silent.
