Chapter 315: She Is Officially No Longer a Sheng!
Hearing this, Sheng Minghui fell onto the ground.
Grandpa Sheng glanced at her and said, “It’s not late for you to kneel after we get home. Eldest Brother, get dressed and return to Sheng Mansion at once. We will settle all the scores tonight.”
Sheng Minghui felt as if she was struck by lightning when she heard him.
Because she had a feeling that Grandpa Sheng would not forgive her easily this time.
…
Soon after, Grandpa Sheng returned to Sheng Mansion with Eldest Brother and Sheng Minghui. The other Shengs had received the news and rushed back. Tonight, Grandpa Sheng wanted all the Shengs in Jianchuan to be present.
It could be seen that this matter was a very serious one.
Sheng Minghui knelt in the hall. She felt like the biggest sinner in the world. And the Shengs arrived at Sheng Mansion from all around the city, including Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi.
Sheng Minghui’s father was there too. But he had never been able to control his daughter. So, he just let her be. Anyway, he still had a son.
So, he did not feel weird seeing Sheng Minghui kneel in the hall. Now, he only looked at her coldly.
Sheng Minghui cried and cried. But this time, not even a saint could save her.
About an hour later, the hall fell into deep silence. Everyone focused on Sheng Minghui.
“Eldest Brother, come out.”
Eldest Brother sighed and got close to Sheng Minghui, facing Grandpa Sheng. “Grandpa…”
“This person… This person is too fearless. Do you know who he is having an affair with? Shen Ruoyi! Sheng Xiao is still single, so I don’t mind much. But you. How many years have you been married? It is not a very serious problem that you want to be a playboy. I know you have had many affairs all these years. But why are you so brainless that you don’t even realize you are being used by your younger cousin? Do you know why Shen Ruoyi chose you? Because she knows you are an easy target. This incident will be a good reminder to you that you should not do the wrong things to your wife. If you repeat the same thing again, don’t let me see you again. I can’t afford losing my face again!”
It was Grandpa Sheng’s first time talking about their personal lives. It meant that he could no longer tolerate his actions.
So, Eldest Brother could only accept his unlucky fate. “Yes, Grandpa.”
“Get lost now that you have learned your lesson. We shall now deal with another bigger problem.” Grandpa Sheng looked at Sheng Minghui. Then, he walked toward her and lifted her chin. “What were you thinking about getting your eldest cousin a mistress? Have you lost your mind? Or, are you blind?” Grandpa Sheng patted Sheng Minghui’s face while asking.
“How could you do that? Getting a mistress for your eldest cousin?”
Sheng Minghui’s eyes were full of fears.
“You wanted to contact the Liu family? And you even wanted to leak the confidential information of Huang Yao to the public? If we were still living in the past, I would have choked you to death already. You are lucky to be living in a lawful society. Sheng Minghui, how many chances have I given you? Since the day you brought a woman back for Sheng Xiao, I found out that your way of thinking is very strange. Can you tell me, are you being bewitched?”
Sheng Minghui cried nonstop. She couldn’t control herself.
And the Shengs just looked at her.
“Am I not good to you? I even wanted to let you lead the planning department. But what did you do? When you do this, do you think you are worthy of my investment on you for so many years?”
Sheng Minghui cried silently. She hugged Grandpa Sheng’s leg tightly. “I am sorry, Grandpa. I am very sorry. It is all because of Mu Qiqi going against me. That is why I slipped for a moment. That is why I made this mistake.”
“It is not because of her going against you. It is just that you are jealous because she is better than you.” Grandpa Sheng corrected her.
Sheng Xiao glared at Sheng Minghui coldly and grabbed Mu Qiqi’s hand.
It was so rare that Grandpa Sheng would make such a fair remark.
“It’s not like that, Grandpa. It’s not. I did this for the Sheng family.”
“Is it? Even when you tried to leak confidential information about Huang Yao to the public?”
Sheng Minghui could not refute, so she just kept hugging Grandpa Sheng’s leg. “Grandpa…”
However, Grandpa Sheng shook her hands off him. “I am not your grandfather. I don’t teach my grandchildren to betray her eldest cousin, to betray her loved ones. Now that everyone is here, including Sheng Minghui’s father, I shall announce that the Sheng family will disown her. I don’t want to see her face anymore. That’s why I asked all of you to come here. I want to let you know that she is officially no longer a Sheng! In the future, if I come to know that any of you keep in touch with her, don’t blame me if I take action.”
Sheng Minghui was stunned when she heard him. She could not say a word. Because she knew that begging for forgiveness was no longer useful. So, she turned around and looked at Mu Qiqi angrily.
“Mu Qiqi, was it you? You told Grandpa, right?”
“Butler, pack the things of this person now and send her out tonight. Apart from her clothes, she is not allowed to bring anything out of Sheng Mansion, not even a piece of cloth!”
“Yes, Sir.” The butler acted swiftly without giving Sheng Minghui a chance to resist.
He headed straight to Sheng Minghui’s room.
When Sheng Minghui realized that there was nothing she could do, she fell lifelessly onto the floor. She glanced at everyone, including her father.
“Father… please save me.”
But her father stayed at his position and shook his hand. He was sad, but was his sadness of any use?
Seeing that even her father could not help her, Sheng Minghui looked at Mu Qiqi, her enemy, once again.
“Mu Qiqi, save me. I was wrong. I should not have gone against you.”
Mu Qiqi got emotional looking at Sheng Minghui begging and kowtowing. One’s path was always like this. When you lost your conscience and did evil things, you would face your doom eventually.
“You are just leaving the Sheng family. You can still work to earn a living. You feel pain now just because you will be losing your glorious life. Why are you begging me to save you? You are still alive.”
Eventually, the Shengs who gathered in the hall left one by one.
Later, the butler brought Sheng Minghui’s baggage out of her room and walked toward her. “Please, Miss Minghui.”
Eldest Brother couldn’t help but feel scared after seeing Sheng Minghui in this state.
Grandpa Sheng’s tolerance had reached its limit.
…
Of course, Mu Qiqi did not think that it was a victory. Because one day, perhaps when Grandpa Sheng had found a suitable wife candidate for Sheng Xiao, she might be treated the same way as Sheng Minghui was being treated.
However, she would not encounter the same fate.
Besides, there was another one to deal with apart from Sheng Minghui!
