Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

Chapter 374: Chapter 304: Honour from a Son l

When Yunsi Shen stepped into her chaotic home, she was taken aback. Her father stood silently by the sofa while her mother was held up by several maids.

“Yunsi, you’re finally home… You must stand up for your brother!”

The moment Lady Shen saw her daughter, she saw a glimmer of hope.

So, she swiftly shrugged off the maids beside her and approached Yunsi Shen.

“Dad, what’s going on?”

Yunsi Shen furrowed her brows, instinctively looking at her father who was a picture of gloom.

She had secretly returned to the country some time ago, keeping it a secret from her family. Now that she was back officially after hearing about Gu Li’s divorce from Mo Shiting, she had intended to surprise her parents. However, she was the one who ended up being shocked.

Before Shen He could say anything, Lady Shen rushed to say, “Your brother has been expelled from Imperial City University.”

“What? How did this happen?”

Yunsi Shen was utterly baffled.

She was actually not fond of her misogynist brother who would bully women all day. Especially hearing their mother’s blatant favoritism towards her brother stirred up her annoyance.

But on the surface, she showed none of that.

Hence, Lady Shen was completely oblivious to the fact that when Yunsi Shen heard about Shen Yunrui’s expulsion, she actually found it rather satisfactory.

She still held out hope that Yunsi Shen would help Shen Yunrui.

“Yunsi, since you’re so close with Mrs. Song, could you plead with her to help get your brother back into the university?”

Lady Shen, perhaps out of desperation, tugged hard on Yunsi Shen’s arm, causing her physical discomfort.

Suppressing her innate anger, Yunsi Shen reluctantly said, “Mom, Mrs. Song doesn’t have much of a relationship with Imperial City University. I don’t think she would necessarily be able to help.”

“But she’s Mo Shiting’s grandmother! If she’s willing to ask favor, he would certainly oblige her and let your brother return to the university. You don’t know, but it was Mo Shiting who pressured the university to expel your brother.”

Lady Shen gritted her teeth in hate against Mo Shiting.

“Mo Shiting? Why would he do that?” replied a shocked Yunsi Shen.

“How would I know? Yunrui hasn’t had any connections with Mo Shiting for years. How did he suddenly incur his wrath?”

Absorbing her mother’s words, Yunsi Shen considered a possibility, her lips barely curling into a smile.

Gently patting Lady Shen’s shoulder, she softly said, “I understand, I’ll go talk to Mrs. Song. But first, I need to have a serious discussion with Yunrui. Where is he now?”

Lady Shen wiped away her tears and choked out, “He’s in his room. Refusing to see anyone.”

After comforting Lady Shen and sending her back to her room, Yunsi Shen and her father, Shen He, went to the study.

Father and daughter sat on the sofa.

Shen He said bluntly, “I will send your brother abroad. You don’t need to concern yourself with his expulsion from Imperial City University.”

Yunsi Shen, who was elegantly crossing her legs, was unsurprised by her father’s decision to bury the matter.

After all, her father, though in a high-ranking position, was promoted by old Master Mo himself and would naturally feel a bit inferior to the Mo Family.

“Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Seeing his daughter’s serious expression, Shen He seemed somewhat displeased.

Yunsi Shen remarked sarcastically, “Dad, old Master Mo has been retired for years and has no actual power. And yet, with your current status, why would you still flinch at his presence? Moreover, it was Mo Shiting who expelled Yunrui. Why are you even afraid of someone the younger generation? I can’t see eye to eye with you.”

“Isn’t it for your sake?”

“For me?”

“Who else could it be?”

Shen He said in a solemn tone, “You’ve always had feelings for Mo Shiting. Wouldn’t it mean bearing a grudge against him and officially severing any possibilities of marriage with the Mo family if I go against him? Your brother is not up to the task and no matter where he studies, he won’t make much difference. But you’re different in that the future of the Shen family rests upon you. Yunsi, do you understand what I’m saying?”

Yunsi Shen pressed her lips together and then with a determined glance, replied, “I know what I should do, father. I will work hard to marry Mo Shiting.”

Hearing this, Shen He nodded satisfactorily, “Go ahead, I have faith in you.”

Imperial City University.

The next day, Xiang Xiaoyue returned to class.

Gu Li had arrived before her, and seeing her calm demeanor, which was a stark contrast to her dispirited, drunken state from the previous night, he was slightly relieved..
