The Big-Shot is Pampered after She Becomes the Villainness Chapter 180 Opening Her Mind

180 Opening Her Mind

When Shi Zhong returned at night, he saw his wife sitting alone on the sofa sighing.

Shi Zhong put down his bag with heartache and walked to Shen Xian’s side to pull her into his arms. He comforted her carefully. “Xianxian, why are you unhappy?”

“What else? Of course, it’s about our precious daughter!” Shen Xian frowned with heartache. She turned around and threw herself into Shi Zhong’s arms. “Hubby, can you help Manman think of a way? Manman really doesn’t want to marry Yi Zheng!”

Shi Zhong sighed softly. “I know.”

“Then why aren’t you thinking of a solution?” Shen Xian grabbed his arm and shook it. She was so angry that she looked like a twenty-something-year-old girl. No one could imagine that she was a mother of five just by looking at her well-maintained appearance.

Shi Zhong doted on his wife the most and couldn’t bear to see her anxious. However, this time, he didn’t agree immediately. Instead, he patted her back and coaxed her in a gentle voice, “Listen to me slowly. Old Yi has already apologized to me regarding this matter. Moreover, he’s right about one thing. We should the two children solve their own problems. If we interfere, we’ll blow this matter up completely.”

“But Manman can’t be bullied like this. She’s already been labeled as Yi Zheng’s fiancée. If the marriage doesn’t succeed in the end, who will want to marry Manman in the future!” Shen Xian was really worried about her daughter’s future. She didn’t want a man to easily ruin her lifelong happiness.

Shi Zhongyi thought that her daughter’s reputation had long been ruined by her. Was there a need for this?

However, he could not say this. He reached out and poured a cup of hot tea for his wife to calm down. Then, he gently patted her back and slowly explained to her like he was coaxing a child. “Actually, Yi Zheng is really a good choice for our Manman.”

Shen Xian put down her teacup and looked up at him seriously. “Do you really think so? You know how he embarra.s.sed our daughter in the past.”

“Yes, I know all this, but he’s clearly pursuing Manman now.” Shi Zhong still knew men better than Shen Xian. In the past, Manman had chased after him and he refused to take her. Now that he came back to his senses and wanted to chase Manman back, wasn’t this the time for him to suffer?

“Think about it. Manman suffered so much for him in the past. Don’t you want him to experience all the pain and embarra.s.sment? This is the best opportunity to stand up for Manman. He will still be willing and not complain at all. Moreover, we’ve seen this child since he was young. We know each other’s backgrounds. Isn’t that the best way forward?” Shi Zhong broke down the logic and sorted it out for her bit by bit, trying to get her to look at this matter differently.

Shen Xian’s anxious heart suddenly calmed down after hearing his words. After thinking about the cause and effect, she nodded in realization. “That’s right, why didn’t I think of it? Even if Yi Zheng took the worst move, that’s his determination to marry Manman. Why don’t we let them do it themselves and let Yi Zheng suffer a little? At that time, whether he moves Manman or gives up will depend on his own efforts.”

“Yes, my wife is so smart,” Shi Zhong praised at the right time.

Shen Xian felt relieved. Her heart, which had been blocked by a huge rock, suddenly lit up. She stood up and stretched. She smiled and said, “Then let’s go back to sleep quickly! I still have to wake up early tomorrow!”

“Why are you up early?” Shi Zhong asked in confusion.

She was now idle at home enjoying life. If there was nothing important, she should have sufficient sleep before getting up.

Shen Xian smiled at him mysteriously. “You don’t understand, do you? I have to get up before Manman so that I can take the opportunity to tell her not to agree to Yi Zheng’s pursuit too quickly. I have to let him suffer some hard knocks and not let him succeed easily.”

Shi Zhong couldn’t help but laugh. He stood up and hugged his wife’s shoulder dotingly. “Alright, alright, alright. Then I’ll wake you up tomorrow morning.”

“Then why are we wasting time? Hurry up and go upstairs to sleep!” Shen Xian was energetic. She grabbed Shi Zhong’s hand and walked up the stairs.

Poor Shi Zhong could only complain innocently behind him. “Honey, I haven’t eaten yet!”

The next morning, Shen Xian indeed went downstairs early to personally prepare breakfast for Shi Man. She made a pot of thick shrimp porridge to nourish her family.

When Shi Man went downstairs, the others were already waiting for her.

The gloominess from yesterday was swept away from Shen Xian’s face. She happily held Shi Man’s hand and sat at the dining table. She smiled and said, “Hurry up and try Mom’s porridge. Is it better than the ones outside?”

Shi Man looked up at her in surprise. After transmigrating for so long, this was the first time she knew that Shen Xian could cook.

Curious, she picked up the soup spoon and tasted it. A smile suddenly appeared on her habitually stiff face. “Mommy’s porridge is the best.”

The generous praise made Shen Xian’s heart tremble. She stroked Shi Man’s hair even more lovingly. “Eat more if you like. Mom has something to tell you later.”
