Xia Nuannuan stared at the butler with a flabbergasted expression.
She frowned, trying to understand how the money had ended up in her room.
For sure, she had not taken it.
And it was not as though her room was accessible to everyone.
How did this happen?
As she pondered this, she suddenly caught Shen Zihao looking at her.
Immediately, she shivered.
That look in his eyes… Was he doubting her?
How could he doubt her?!
Xia Nuannuan felt his gaze on her, cutting her, and it plunged into her heart like a knife. She her fingers tightly.
Shen Xiu’s suspicion made her feel ashamed.
Mei Feng’s slandering was at worst insulting.
But Shen Zihao’s suspicion caused a pain that was now growing in her heart.
She stared at them in a daze and heard Shen Zihao asking, “Where did you find this money?”
The butler hung his head and said, “Young Madam has a suitcase. This money was found in Young Madam’s suitcase.”
The money was found in the suitcase.
How could the money possibly be in the suitcase?
Xia Nuannuan gritted her teeth.
Shen Xiu was already looking at her and rebuking her, “You really bear the mark of someone with a low family background. You were so poorly brought-up! You are capable of stealing. Are we, the Shen family, not giving you enough food to fill your stomach or enough clothes to keep you warm?!”
Xia Nuannuan glared at Shen Xiu when she heard these words.
She stood there with her eyes glistening, like a delicate girl, but there was something obstinate and stubborn about her. She said unhurriedly and clearly, “Dad, you are right. The Shen family feeds me well and provides everything I need. So why would I need to steal?”
Shen Xiu almost choked upon hearing this.
That’s right. Why would Xia Nuannuan need to steal?
As soon as she said this, Mei Feng sighed deeply. “Let’s be fair. Actually, I’ve known for some time that our in-laws haven’t been doing too well. To marry their daughter off into our family, they sold their home and even borrowed money… but Nuannuan, you should speak up. If you had spoken up, we would have helped regardless. After all, it’s our in-laws.”
These words made the people standing around realize something else.
They had sold their home to marry their daughter off into a wealthy family. What sort of decent family would do something like that?
All the housekeepers suddenly looked at Xia Nuannuan with changed expressions.
Xia Nuannuan, on the other hand, stared steadily at Mei Feng.
She felt as though she had been stripped naked, exposed to be looked upon and judged by these people.
Her pride was completely destroyed in that moment.
She turned to look at Shen Xiu. There was a deep despise in his eyes.
Finally, she looked at Shen Zihao and saw he had a deep frown on his face.
Xia Nuannuan harshly bit her lip and said, “Our family is poor, but I wouldn’t steal! This money—”
“Was from me. I gave it to her.”
Those words casually came from Shen Zihao.
Xia Nuannuan was stunned for a moment.
Mei Feng paused.
Shen Xiu fell silent.
Shen Zihao suddenly laughed. “I gave her that money. Why? Aunty Mei, these 50 thousand are not your 50 thousand. I gave Xia Nuannuan this money.”
“Xia Nuannuan is not a thief.”
Shen Zihao suddenly reached out and put his arm around Xia Nuannuan’s waist. He continued, “This is the Shen family’s money. Xia Nuannuan is my wife, hence, this money is hers!”
Those words were powerful and resonating.
They encompassed his authority and commitment.
Mei Feng was stumped into silence, as a consuming envy grew within her.
To think that this Xia Nuannuan would enjoy Shen Zihao’s protection even at a time like this.
