Shen Linxi kissed me softly on the lips and said, "Don't say it's for my own good. Unless you don't like me, never mention breaking up."
My face turned bright red as I mumbled, "But I'm afraid..."
Shen Linxi chuckled, "Afraid that Cheng Cheng will take revenge on me?"
I pressed my lips together and replied, "I'm not afraid of him targeting me, but I'm worried he might vent his anger on you."
Shen Linxi raised an eyebrow, "Do you think I would be afraid of him?"
Thinking about Shen Linxi's background, I shook my head, "Not afraid."
Shen Linxi flicked my forehead lightly, "Then that's settled. You don't need to worry about anything else."
I looked at him; his eyes were bright, almost glowing, making it hard not to get lost in them.
I nodded, "Okay."
The summer vacation passed quickly, and in a few days, I would be heading to the capital for university.
Shen Linxi returned to the capital a few days ago because Mrs. Shen was feeling unwell, so he went back to check on her.
Before he left, he told me he would personally come to pick me up.
Unexpectedly, before I could wait for Shen Linxi, Mrs. Shen sent a secretary to find me.
The arrangement was quite grand.
After seeing me, the secretary took out a phone and played several video clips for me.
In the videos was my biological father, Jiang Shaoping.
He introduced himself to everyone as the future father-in-law of the Shen Family, using their name to solicit investments and partnerships with ease.
After watching, my face turned pale.
The secretary remained gentle and polite, saying, "Miss Jiang, the lady respects you very much, but what the young master did this time is indeed excessive and has brought shame to the family. Such a relationship with a potential in-law is absolutely unacceptable for the Shen Family."
"Moreover, if it weren't for you, Miss Jiang, the young master would have gone abroad with his childhood friend Miss Gu long ago. Now that things have escalated to this point, everyone at home is very upset."
The secretary glanced at me and continued, "Miss Jiang, you should know what to do now. I believe you are a smart person and will make the right decision."
I clenched my hands into tight fists, my nails digging deep into my flesh without me even noticing.
I felt an overwhelming sense of distress inside.
I never expected that Jiang Shaoping could be so shameless. He has never regarded me as his daughter, but merely as a tool. Now, in order to pressure the Shen Family, he has come to the capital. He calculated that the Shen Family, being a prestigious household, values face above all and would not allow someone like him to be their in-law.
And I truly cannot selfishly be with Shen Linxi, as it would ruin the Shen Family and also destroy Shen Linxi. However, how could I bear to voluntarily give up on Shen Linxi? He was the first person to treat me well after I came into this world, and he is the only one.
He has been so good to me, yet I have to take the initiative to give him up. Just thinking about how heartbroken Shen Linxi would be if he knew I chose to abandon him makes my heart feel like it’s being sliced by a knife.
The secretary noticed that I had been silent for a long time and gently reminded me, "Miss Jiang, don't blame Madam for being ruthless; she has no choice. She carries the weight of the entire Shen Family on her shoulders and cannot disregard them for the sake of one person."
I looked up at the secretary. He remained gentle, but his words felt like a sharp knife pressed against my throat, forcing me to make a choice. I closed my eyes, the pain in my heart making it almost impossible to breathe.
After a long while, I opened my eyes and looked at the secretary, my voice trembling, "Please go back and tell Madam that I know what to do." The secretary nodded in satisfaction, "Miss Jiang is indeed a smart person. Madam appreciates you very much; I believe you will get along well in the future."
I forced out a faint smile.
