The more Shen Yamei refused to say anything, the angrier Shen Yaping was. He felt that Shen Yamei didn’t think she was wrong and didn’t show any guilt.
“When you tried to harm Xiyin, did you plan to cut off your relationship with the Shen family?” asked Shen Yaping coldly. Or did she think they would forgive her for the sake of the Shen family? They weren’t so weak!
“No” Shen Yamei replied subconsciously. It was impossible for her to cut off relations with the Shen family. Otherwise, her family would lose such a powerful support and they couldn’t receive help from the Shen family anymore.
“Do you think the Shen family will still take you as a family member after you tried to harm Xiyin?” Shen Yaping asked instead, feeling that her answer was ridiculously funny.
Shen Yamei didn’t know what to say. She obviously knew that the Shen family wouldn’t regard her as a family member any longer after knowing that she had tried to harm Shen Xiyin. However, she had no idea that the Shen family would know!
Unfortunately, the Shen family was aware of it now. What should she do? What could she do?
“Aunt Yamei, I always respected you, but I didn’t expect you to harm me for my cousin’s ambition. Aunt Yamei, you broke my heart. I even doubt whether you sincerely treated me well before. Is your care for me real? I can’t treat you as my family any longer. This is the last time that I will call you aunt,” Shen Xiyin said. Shen Yamei really hurt her heart and she could never get over it.
“I” Shen Yamei wanted to say something again, but didn’t know what to say because she had indeed hurt Shen Xiyin.
“Shen Yamei, after you tried to harm Xiyin, shouldn’t you apologize? We said so much, but you remained silent. Don’t you feel guilty at all? If Xiyin hadn’t had good luck and her friend had discovered it first, Xiyin would be ruined by you” Shen Yaping became angrier when Shen Xiyin didn’t apologize.
Upon hearing that, Shen Yamei realized that she was terribly wrong. She immediately apologized. “Xiyin, I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have done that. Please forgive me this once.”
Shen Yamei really regretted doing it, but it was too late. In fact, if her scheme wasn’t exposed, she wouldn’t regret it.
People never regretted doing wrong things until they paid the price. Moreover, people only regretted it because they were reluctant to pay the price.
Before they did bad things, they had the idea of giving up and wondered what would happen if they were exposed. However, they still did it.
“Forgive you? Sorry, I can’t do that. It’s already very nice of me that I didn’t call the police and put you in jail,” Shen Xiyin said.
She wasn’t so tolerant and wouldn’t forgive her aunt after she tried to harm her. If it were someone else, she wouldn’t hesitate to throw the person in jail.
They decided not to sue Shen Yamei precisely because she was a member of the Shen family and Shen Xiyin wasn’t really harmed in the end.
Hearing that Shen Xiyin wouldn’t put her in jail, Shen Yamei was relieved. However, she also hoped that the Shen family could forgive her. She didn’t want her relationship with the Shen family to be cut off!
“Brother Yaping, I know I’m wrong. It’s my fault.” Shen Yamei turned to beg Shen Yaping at once and cried out, hoping that Shen Yaping could forgive her and still accept her.
“It’s your fault whether you know it or not, but it’s not enough for you to admit that you’re wrong. It’s already very forgiving of us that we don’t sue you. I didn’t tell mother and your sister-in-law about this. I won’t do that either, but from now on, you’re no longer my younger sister nor Xiyao and Xiyin’s aunt. Don’t contact your sister-in-law again. I won’t help your family anymore either. Our mother is still your mother. You can still go to see her at the Shen family’s mansion, but you better do that when we’re not home because we don’t want to see you,” Shen Yaping said with determination.
“Would you forgive me if I did the same thing to your daughter?” Shen Yaping asked coldly.
“I” Shen Yamei was struck dumb for a second and didn’t know what to say, because she couldn’t do that if it happened to her daughter.
“So, why do you think I’d forgive you? Xiyao, Xiyin, let’s go,” Shen Yaping said. After that, he turned around and walked out, followed by Shen Xiyao and Shen Xiyin.
Shen Yamei collapsed to the ground. After being in shock for a long while, she suddenly remembered something. Then she took out her phone and called Lu Laosan. She believed that Shen Yaping hearing about her scheme must have something to do with Lu Laosan.
If Lu Laosao didn’t betray her or give Shen Yaping the voice recording of their conversation, Shen Yaping wouldn’t know about it!
To her astonishment, Lu Laosan recorded their conversation.
Because Lu Laosan was seriously injured, he couldn’t answer Shen Yamei’s call. That being the case, Shen Yamei was even more convinced that Lu Laosan told Shen Yaping what she had done and now he didn’t dare to answer her call.
After second thought, Lu Laosan might not be able to answer her call instead of not daring to do that.
Shen Yaping forgave her because she was a member of the Shen family, but Lu Laosan wasn’t. Therefore, Lu Laosan should be in trouble.
Even if Shen Yamei blamed Lu Laosan for it, she had no intention of paying Lu Laosan back because she understood that he wouldn’t have been willing to do that. He must have been forced to tell Shen Yaping everything.
After all, Lu Laosan was in trouble because of her, so she had no reason to punish him.
However, what should she do now?
She understood her older brother’s character very well. Once he said it, he would carry out his word. Therefore, she was full of regrets at this moment. In despair, she had no idea what to do.
Coincidentally, right after Shen Yaping said he wouldn’t help Shen Yamei’s family again, Shen Yamei’s husband encountered trouble.
When Shen Yaping just arrived at home, Shen Yamei’s husband called him.
The moment Shen Yaping saw that the caller was Shen Yamei’s husband, he didn’t answer. He didn’t care whether Shen Yamei’s husband already knew what Shen Yamei had done to Shen Xiyin or needed help.
He never liked Shen Yamei’s husband, who didn’t have abilities but had great ambition. Shen Yamei’s husband loved to play petty tricks, so he always caused trouble and Shen Yaping had to help him deal with it.
