Mr Shen Happens to Have a Crush On Me - Chapter 34

“You lowly being, how dare you glare at me?”
Seeing Weiai look at her, the girl raised her eyebrows angrily and scolded.
At that moment, the bodyguards chasing after Weiai stopped in their tracks as they saw the girl, bowed down all at once, and said respectfully, “Second Young Mistress.”
Second young mistress?
Weiai heard this and understood.
She was just thinking about her obnoxious attitude. So it turned out that she was the daughter of the Shen Family. She should be Shen Shaobai’s cousin. This was because she had once heard that Shen Shaobai was the only child and was brought up by the Old Master Shen.
As a result, Old Master Shen doted on him very much and appointed him as the inheritor of the Shen Family.
In reality, Weiai was right.
The Shen Family, during Old Master Shen’s generation, had three sons and two daughters, all of whom were married.
As of now, only Master Shen—Shen Shaobai’s father—passed away early on due to sickness. So, only two sons and two daughters were left and this second young mistress was the daughter of the Third Master Shen.
“Young sister, is this the new maid? What a clumsy and rude person! Hurry up and fire her…”
Su Meiya said with an arrogant look on her face.
In Weiai’s eyes, that attitude was exactly the same as that of Shen Shaobai. They were indeed cousins!
As to why this second young mistress had the surname Su and not Shen, it was a result of the Shen Family rules. In the Shen Family, only the males had the right to inherit the Shen surname, whereas females had to take their mother’s surname.
This rule had been around for a hundred years.
The reason was not only because males were favored over females, but it was also because females were seen as outsiders and only the males were qualified as inheritors. When the females get married, the Shen Family would give an expensive dowry, but other than that, they would not inherit any other properties.
“Second Young Mistress, I’m afraid this is not possible.”
At that moment, Shi Mei walked towards Su Meiya slowly.
Weiai did not realize previously that Shi Mei was also present. Surprised, her eyes were filled with disgust when she looked at her. As if there was great hatred between them.
It was obvious that this was due to Shen Shaobai.
She was indeed very loyal to Shen Shaobai!
Su Meiya was displeased. Shi Mei collected her expression and said in an indifferent tone, “Second Young Mistress, she is not a maid. She is actually the Young Master’s… lover.”
She was not sure what the young master thought of Xia Weiai.
However, since the young master insisted on keeping her, it meant that he saw her as a replacement for Tong Hua. Thus, it was appropriate to address her as his lover.
“Brother’s lover? You say… that she’s brother’s lover?!”
Su Meiya was stunned. She looked at Weiai from head to toes and had a look of disbelief on her face.
From what she remembered, didn’t brother love Tong Hua?
Since Tong Hua’s departure, he had kept to himself and lived on this Xiu Luo Island, refusing to return home. He also rejected aunt’s efforts in arranging a marriage for him!
Why did he suddenly have a “lover”?!
Weiai had just woken up and had not cleaned herself up, so she looked disheveled. Additionally, she was dressed in a maid’s attire that covered up her looks. Hence, Su Meiya found it weird.
At that moment, Su Meiya walked forward in an elegant manner.
Under Weiai’s confusion, she stretched out her arms and pinched her chin, stared intently at her, then suddenly laughed. “I was thinking, why would brother suddenly have a lover? I see. She looks like Sister Tong.”
Did she and Tong Hua… looked that alike?
Weiai heard this and felt unhappy. Not because of any other reasons, but she was unwilling to believe that she was related to the Tong Family. From that conversation, she could tell that during that time, the woman was the third party.
In her father’s description, her mother was always kind.
Even when she gave birth, she was willing to sacrifice her life to protect her. Hence, she did not believe that her mother was the woman they were talking about!
“Since she is brother’s woman, why is she dressed like a maid? Could it be that… brother has a singular taste and enjoys role-playing? However, this can’t be right, there are problems with his eyes. How does he even fool around with her?”
