Chapter 78 Hidden Care (2)

  "That year, your parents died under suspicious circumstances, and when you were brought back, you were diagnosed with congenital mental deficiency, and for this life, you would be unable to cultivate internal energy or magic. Looking at the you who was still in swaddling clothes back then, I felt a deep sorrow. The internal struggles of the Vermilion Bird clan, I understand better than anyone else. You didn't have your parents' support, couldn't cultivate magic or internal energy... for you, it's actually a blessing." Shen Feng sighed.

  She nodded slightly, she understood the unspoken part of Shen Feng's words. The Zhuque family had many internal branches, and now Shen Yue and Shen Ye were fighting so fiercely. If she hadn't been a useless person back then, without her parents' protection, she might have already been secretly eliminated.

  Even if Shen Feng had a mind to protect her, his years were already advanced, and after he passed away, she would have no one to rely on, and the Shen Yue's family would have ways to deal with her.

  Shen Yan's previous doubts were dispelled by Shen Feng's words.

  Shen Feng's estrangement and neglect of her were undoubtedly a form of protection, for only by making others think that Shen Yanshuo was absolutely impossible to become an obstacle on their path of struggle would she truly be safe. Shen Qiu's secret care must have been instructed by Shen Feng, and even Shen Siyu's favor towards her might have had some connection with Shen Feng.

  After all, Shen Feng couldn't show too much concern for her on the surface, so he could only arrange for Shen Siyu, who didn't have the Zhuque family's bloodline, to take care of her everywhere.

  Shen Yan Xiao's eyes were slightly warm, this majestic old man had been secretly planning her future path from start to finish, if not for Shen Feng's careful response, she might not have lived until now.

  Shen Yanshuo, who had never experienced familial love before, found it difficult to express the emotions she was feeling now. It was as if a small animal that had been left in a corner to fend for itself suddenly discovered that someone had been carefully nurturing and caring for it all along.

  Shen Feng's concerns, she was very clear about them, and the clearer they were, the more precious they seemed.

  She was originally just a white idiot, a waste, and looked nothing like Shen Yu. Shen Feng's ability to protect her so thoroughly can be said to have cost him dearly.

  Shen Yan's voice was slightly choked as she felt a warmth in her heart that she had never experienced before. She wasn't an unfeeling or unscrupulous person, but in her past life, no one had ever treated her like a human being. To the organization, she was just a tool, and to her comrades, she was only a rival. She had always faced endless deception and betrayal. But this lifetime, starting with Shen Siyu, she felt for the first time what it was like to be cared for and looked after.

  "Grandpa." Shen Yanshao called out to Shen Feng for the first time with genuine sincerity.

  Even if she wasn't the real owner of this body, since she had taken over and lived on in place of the original owner, then she should just take her place and live out her life.

  Shen Feng's eyes were slightly red, and he nodded comfortingly, rubbing his granddaughter's hair affectionately. "You've suffered for many years, but now that you've regained your senses and obtained the Zhu Que, Grandfather no longer needs to worry about your uncles bullying you. Don't worry, as long as Grandfather is around, no one will be able to bully you again." He had originally wanted his granddaughter to live a carefree and ordinary life, but fate had other plans, and she had regained her senses. So, he would definitely place all the hopes he had once held for Shen Yu on this child instead.

  "Xiao Xiao, you're now clever, Grandpa has some words to entrust to you."

  "Grandpa, you say."
