Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 828: Chapter 838: The Shen Family’s Granddaughter

”Yes, Dad, I found her,” Xia Yuzhu cried while holding Old Mr. Shen’s arm, nodding and saying, ”Dad, Jie is watching over the child from heaven and helped me find her.”

Old Mr. Shen’s eyes, filled with tears, suddenly burst forth with a glimmer of light, ”Where is she? Did you bring her?”

Within the room at that moment, the sound of sobbing was heard. Xia Huiling was already crying uncontrollably, and Grandma Mu was wiping her tears. Jie had grown up under her care, and she never expected such a kind-hearted child to suffer so much.

Mu Xingfeng listened to Xia Yuzhu’s words with a stern expression, yet his eyes seemed even deeper.

Who would’ve thought that Boss Song from the café would have such a relationship with the Shen Family? Could it be that when I was in Nan’an, she already knew my identity? And what about An Ran? He remembered that Boss Song treated An Ran differently than other employees.

Could it be...

He chose not to think further and noticed An Ran’s eyes turning red from Xia Yuzhu’s words, reaching out to hug her shoulder.

Xia Yuzhu heard Old Mr. Shen’s question but didn’t directly answer him. Instead, she looked toward the corner of the room, directly meeting An Ran’s gaze and stood up, step by step walking over.

An Ran watched Manager Song approach her, not understanding why, while still lost in the story, unable to extricate herself, not knowing why Manager Song looked at her with such an expression.

”Manager Song...”

”Child...”

Xia Yuzhu’s eyes reddened, tears streaming continuously, ”Child, you have suffered, Aunt is so sorry to you...”

Aunt!

An Ran’s body suddenly stiffened, her mind blank. Why was she calling herself her aunt? Why did Manager Song say she was her aunt?

Xia Yuzhu reached out again to hug An Ran, voice full of emotion and tears, ”Child, An Ran, you are Shen Family’s granddaughter, you are the niece I’ve been searching for twenty years.”

Saying this, she actually began to cry loudly.

An Ran had never expected the elegant and refined Manager Song to hold her and cry so openly, even more shocking were the words Manager Song had just spoken.

She was the granddaughter of the Shen Family? The person she just mentioned, isn’t that...

No!

Even though An Ran knew she was adopted by An Youcai, knew she was an orphan, she still couldn’t accept this fact at once.

She had such a kind and pitiful mother, and a worthless father?

An Ran hurriedly pushed Xia Yuzhu away, face filled with panic and confusion, tears unconsciously flowing down.

”Manager Song, you must be mistaken, how could I possibly be the granddaughter of the Shen Family? You’ve got the wrong person.”

Feeling overwhelmed and with a desire to escape, An Ran hastily shoved Xia Yuzhu’s arm away, not even looking back as she tried to leave, only to bump into a solid embrace.

Seeing his little wife like a frightened deer, Mu Xingfeng’s heart ached terribly. He reached out both arms, tightly holding this trembling small body.

Even though being the granddaughter of the Shen Family is an immense honor, he never wanted his girl to be harmed in the slightest.

Clearly, she was frightened.

”Manager Song, or perhaps I should call you Aunt Xia, no matter how you are addressed, but simply based on your words claiming Ran is the Shen Family’s granddaughter, might not be appropriate?”

”Yuzhu, Ran might really not be that child. Ran is already twenty-one years old, and if that child were alive, she would only be nineteen.” Hearing Mu Xingfeng’s question, Shen Zheng also spoke from aside.

Back when he first met An Ran, he had someone investigate, and although An Ran bore a resemblance to his young sister, the age difference was two whole years.
