The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

Chapter 1260 Shen Xuening is angry

Returning from the guest room to the courtyard gate, Qin Zizhou couldn't help but ask Shen Xuening, "They came together, does that mean they've gotten back together?"

Shen Xuening shook her head and said helplessly, "I didn't dare to ask."

Qin Zizhou couldn't help but smile: "If it's not good to ask, then don't ask. Zhang Qianwen should tell you on her own after she's thought it through."

Shen Xuening nodded: "Mm."

Taking a break from her busy schedule, Liu Juan came to the gate of the courtyard and asked with a smile, "How are you? Tired?"

"We're not tired," Qin Zizhou said. "Mom, you don't need to worry about us. We'll rest if we're tired."

"Okay, tell Mom if you need anything." Liu Juan quickly went back inside.

The banquet is about to start at noon, and things are getting busier.

Tao Mian arrived riding a small electric scooter, beaming with excitement: "Cousin, brother-in-law, Wenxu, what do you think of my ride?"

Shen Wenxu went up to him and patted the handlebars of the electric scooter: "Where did you come from? It's pretty cool."

Tao Mian said proudly, "My mom bought it for me."

Shen Wenxu looked incredulous: "Your mother? My fourth aunt?"

Tao Mian nodded: "Yes, do you have any other fourth aunts?"

Shen Wenxu still couldn't believe it: "How could my fourth aunt possibly buy you a little electric scooter? You must be joking."

Tao Mian proudly patted his chest: "No, it really was my mom who bought it for me. I got third place in the grade, and my mom felt proud of me, so she gave it to me as a reward. I just rode it back yesterday. How about I pick you up from school from now on?"

Shen Wenxu happily agreed: "Great, that would be awesome!"

Qin Zizhou egged him on: "Tao Mian, why don't you try taking Wenxu with you first?"

“Sure.” Tao Mian patted the back seat readily and said, “Wenxu, get in the car, I’ll take you for a ride.”

"Alright." Shen Wenxu gave him face and immediately sat down behind Tao Mian. "Cousin, come on, let me see your skills."

"Hold on tight." Tao Mian turned the key to start the car, then turned the handle and drove Shen Wenxu outside.

Everyone was looking at them, their faces full of smiles.

Qin Zizhou suddenly said to Shen Xuening, "Xuening, have I ever given you a ride on my bike?"

Shen Xuening immediately understood Qin Zizhou's meaning: "Yes, what, you want to give me a ride on your bike?"

Qin Zizhou was in high spirits: "Hmm, I'll have someone send a motorcycle over, how about we go riding it tonight?"

Shen Xuening didn't want to ride with Qin Zizhou: "Can I ride by myself? I haven't ridden a motorcycle in a long time."

Qin Zizhou looked at Shen Xuening expectantly: "I want to ride with you."

Shen Xuening winked at Qin Zizhou: "But I want to ride by myself."

Qin Zizhou took Shen Xuening's hand and suggested, "How about we ride by ourselves for a while first, and then I'll take you for a while, okay?"

Seeing that Qin Zizhou was so eager to give her a ride, and was even starting to act coquettishly, Shen Xuening agreed: "Okay, we'll do it your way. But who will you have bring the motorcycle over?"

"Trust your husband's abilities." Qin Zizhou immediately went to the side to make a phone call, and returned a few minutes later, proudly telling Shen Xuening, "It's all settled, it'll be delivered this afternoon."

Shen Xuening gave Qin Zizhou a thumbs up: "Awesome."

Qin Zizhou smiled and said, "Shall we go for a drive this afternoon?"

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "Okay, let's go eat. I know a good road, I'll show you around for a bit later."

Qin Zizhou took precautions in advance. He knew Shen Xuening was a speed demon; he had seen it firsthand. He said, "Speeding is not allowed."

Shen Xuening agreed: "I won't race, I'll just ride normally and show you the beautiful scenery."

Qin Zizhou said expectantly, "It's settled then."

Grandpa Shen and Shen Dong's voices came over: "The feast is starting, the feast is starting, please take your seats..."

It's almost midnight, and the cold dishes are already being laid out on the table. The guests have almost all arrived, so we can take our seats and start the meal.

Liu Juan came over again: "Ningning, Zizhou, there are too many guests, there might be a lot more. Could you two help arrange some seats for the guests who don't have any?"

"Okay, Mom." Shen Xuening led Qin Zizhou to the seating area.

Many people came today. In addition to relatives and friends, there were also Shen Xuening's business partners, such as Ye Hongwei, some wholesalers, some senior executives, and officials from the county. Even those who did not come in person sent people to give gifts. It was quite a large gathering.

In fact, Liu Juan and Shen Dong had already added many tables, but it was still not enough to seat everyone. They had no choice but to add people to each table.

They're all round tables, so adding one more person wouldn't make a difference.

Shen Xuening and Qin Zizhou got busy and soon arranged everyone to their seats.

After everyone was seated, the people who were supposed to serve the dishes began to bring them out...

The fragrant food was served and soon filled the table. Then, the helpers distributed chopsticks to each table, and everyone could start eating as soon as they got their chopsticks.

Qin Zizhou also said a few words and made a unified toast to everyone. There were too many people, and if he toasted each table one by one, everyone would have finished eating before he had finished toasting, so he simply made a unified toast.

"As expected of a young master from a prominent family, his demeanor and speech are truly exceptional."

"If my child were to say this, he would definitely stutter. No, I don't think he would dare to speak in front of so many people, haha."

"I wish my child could be so outgoing, but unfortunately he's too introverted. He doesn't even dare to speak loudly in front of his family."

"I wish my child was half as good as Qin Zizhou. It's true what they say, all the good kids are born to other people."

"If I were Qin Zizhou's parents, I would be so proud."

"..."

As everyone listened to Qin Zizhou's speech, smiles involuntarily appeared on their faces. They also regarded him as someone else's child and were quite envious of him.

Qin Zizhou spoke, and he and Shen Xuening took their seats next to Zhang Qianwen and Lu Zongyuan.

The meal was incredibly lavish; it could be said that no other county or even province could match the quality of Shen Xuening's banquet. There was a wide variety of delicious food from all over the country, catering to everyone's tastes.

Especially the wine. Shen Xuening brought out Duqing wine to entertain the guests, and even some women who don't drink alcohol had a glass. Most people liked it very much.

Zhang Qianwen drank three glasses of wine in a row and said to Shen Xuening, "Xuening, this wine tastes good no matter when you drink it."

"Qianwen, stop drinking, your face is all red." Shen Xuening took Zhang Qianwen's wine glass. Seeing that she must be troubled, she quickly comforted her, "Qianwen, if you want to drink, I'll drink with you when we get back. Now, eat your food properly."

Zhang Qianwen glanced at everyone, not wanting to embarrass Shen Xuening, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Shen Xuening glanced at Lu Zongyuan, wondering if he had said something to upset Qianwen: "Qianwen, eat some vegetables, they're delicious."

"Okay." Zhang Qianwen ate her food quietly, like a well-behaved child.

Lu Zongyuan sat next to Zhang Qianwen, his eyes lowered. Although it was impossible to see the emotions in his eyes, his blank face showed that he was not in a good mood.

Shen Xuening wanted to say something to Lu Zongyuan, but seeing Lu Zongyuan's expression, she didn't say anything.

The atmosphere at the dinner table became somewhat somber because of their appearance.

Seeing that everyone was uncomfortable, Zhang Qianwen quickly finished her meal and said to Shen Xuening, "Xuening, I'm not feeling well. I'm going to rest for a bit. Come find me when you're done."

Shen Xuening agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

Zhang Qianwen put down her chopsticks and left.

Lu Zongyuan looked at Zhang Qianwen's back, his lips trembled slightly, and his face became increasingly expressionless.

Feeling sorry for Zhang Qianwen, Shen Xuening asked, "President Lu, what happened to Qianwen?"

"I..." Lu Zongyuan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Shen Xuening accused her angrily: "Qianwen used to be so cheerful and always smiling. Look at her now, she's like a completely different person. What's wrong with you?"

Lu Zongyuan lowered his head: "I didn't want it to be like this either..."

Shen Xuening's tone was somewhat urgent: "Hmph, you know perfectly well that you're shirking and shirking responsibility, Lu Zongyuan. You're a man, shouldn't a man have responsibility and be accountable? Speak your mind, don't treat the people who love you with your self-righteousness, it's too hurtful, you know?"

Lu Zongyuan buried his head even deeper, but still didn't speak.

Shen Xuening continued, "You two were happy together because you both liked each other. Even if you broke up, shouldn't you avoid being too hurtful?"

Lu Zongyuan opened his mouth: "I don't want to hurt her, it's just that I..."

Shen Xuening really wanted to curse, but it was still lunchtime and she shouldn't say too much: "Never mind, let's eat, we'll talk later."

"I'm full, I'm leaving now." Lu Zongyuan left as if trying to escape.

Shen Xuening was even angrier.

Qin Zizhou patted Shen Xuening's arm reassuringly: "Don't get anxious or upset. It's their business. No matter how hard you try, you can't help them. Let them handle it themselves."

Shen Xuening said, "But I can't bear to see Qianwen so depressed. It really breaks my heart."

Qin Zizhou advised, "If you really care about Zhang Qianwen, then listen to her and go along with her wishes."

Shen Xuening opened her mouth: "I..."

Qin Zizhou interrupted Shen Xuening: "Alright, Xuening, let's eat. We're going for a drive later."

Shen Xuening said helplessly, "After we eat, I need to take them to the village hospital first, and then we can go for a drive together."

Qin Zizhou smiled and nodded: "Okay."

After the meal, Shen Xuening left everything to Qin Zizhou and then went to find Zhang Qianwen.

Zhang Qianwen stayed in the guest room. She sat on the sofa with a bottle of Wuye tea next to her, and she was in a state of silence.

Shen Xuening opened the door and walked in, calling softly, "Qianwen."

Zhang Qianwen snapped back to reality and turned to Shen Xuening: "Xuening, did I affect your mood?"

"What are you talking about? With our relationship, why would I care about these things?" Shen Xuening sat down next to Zhang Qianwen. "If you want to cry, just cry. Seeing you like this makes me feel terrible."

Zhang Qianwen hugged Shen Xuening: "I'm sorry, I really bothered you."

Shen Xuening didn't care at all: "If you consider me a friend, then don't say things like that."

Zhang Qianwen burst into tears: "Xue Ning, I envy you so much."

“He hurt you again.” Shen Xuening said angrily. “I really want to slap him a few times to get revenge for you. Qianwen, we’ve known each other for so long, and you’ve never been this depressed before.”

Zhang Qianwen shook her head: "It's not his problem. I should pay the price for my choices."

"Look at what you're saying," Shen Xuening said. "You haven't done anything wrong. If there's any fault, it's all Lu Zongyuan's. He's the one who turned you into this. I'm going to hold a grudge against him."

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Qianwen couldn't help but laugh: "It's not like I hold a grudge."

Shen Xuening patted Zhang Qianwen on the back and comforted her, "Qianwen, let me tell you, if he doesn't make you happy, I will definitely make the Lu family suffer. How dare they bully my friend? I will make them know why the flowers are so red."

Zhang Qianwen joked, "What, are you planning to use your husband's family's influence?"

Shen Xuening said, "Why not use my husband's family's resources? It's worth it to help you get revenge."

Zhang Qianwen was amused: "Haha, why do I feel less bad?"

Shen Xuening spoke in a relaxed tone, trying to steer Zhang Qianwen in a cheerful direction: "Wouldn't it make you happier if you chatted with me?"

Zhang Qianwen's worries had dissipated considerably, and a smile appeared on her face: "I'm much happier, Xue Ning, you are my lifesaver."

Shen Xuening said, "Then, for my sake, could you please not be so somber?"

Zhang Qianwen immediately sat up straight: "Okay, sister."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "Contact Lu Zongyuan and I'll take you to the hospital right away. After you're all settled, I'm going for a drive with Zizhou this afternoon."

Zhang Qianwen seemed interested: "Going for a drive?"

Shen Xuening explained the situation.

Zhang Qianwen said regretfully, "I really wanted to go with you, but your private time for two can't accommodate me."

Shen Xuening chuckled: "If you want to go, then come with me."

Zhang Qianwen, being sensible, shook her head and said, "Never mind, it's rare for you two to have a date, so I won't disturb you. I'll stay and deal with Lu Zongyuan's matter. Once I've resolved his issue, I can be completely free."

Shen Xuening tentatively asked, "Aren't you going to reconcile?"

The smile on Zhang Qianwen's face vanished instantly, and she shook her head, saying, "No, it hurts too much. I don't want to do it a second time."

Shen Xuening said, "Then think it over carefully. Whatever decision you make, I will support you."

Zhang Qianwen nodded: "She truly is my good sister."

After calming Zhang Qianwen down, Shen Xuening led her out of the guest room. To their surprise, Lu Zongyuan was sitting on the stairs outside the guest room.

Shen Xuening said, "Lu Zongyuan, let's go. I'll take you to the hospital right away. Don't worry, the hospital will cure you."

Lu Zongyuan stood up silently, then stepped aside, waiting for the two to lead the way.

Shen Xuening rolled her eyes at Lu Zongyuan and pulled Zhang Qianwen ahead.
