Shen Chumu's expression did not change, nor did he raise his eyes to look at her, nor did he answer the question.

When the old lady and Shen Rulan saw her coming, they both smiled brightly. Seeing Shen Ruzhou staring at Shen Chumu, they smiled even more.

"Zhuzhu'er, you're here, come and sit down."

Shen Ruzhou couldn't walk, and came to her senses after her grandmother called her. She raised her hand to wipe the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and looked at her grandmother first.

"Grandma, does your leg still hurt?"

"It's really much better after using your prescription." The old lady held her hand and smiled so much that wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes. "You, Sister Rulan, have been massaging me all day long. It's hard not to think well."

Shen Ruzhou turned to Shen Rulan and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Rulan."

"This is your duty, why bother?" Shen Rulan patted her shoulder gently and motioned for her to talk to Shen Chumu.

"I didn't see your brother last time, but I did see him this time. Why don't you say something?"

Shen Ruzhou bit her red lips tightly and stared at her brother's cold face.

She had just married Xiao Chenyan, and those hurtful words and nonsense about severing the relationship were all spoken at this time.

I don't know how angry and sad her father and brother must be in the past and present life, and she cannot make up for it even if she dies.

She walked slowly towards Shen Chumu, "Brother, why didn't you go to court today?"

Shen Chumu still didn't look at her, and said coldly: "I'm sick, so I took sick leave."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ruzhou was a little anxious and hurriedly walked to him, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Let me take your pulse."

With that said, she went to hold Shen Chumu's hand.

Shen Chumu glanced at her, pushed her away cruelly, and snorted: "What's wrong? I'm angry!"

Shen Ruzhou suddenly froze and remained motionless with a guilty look on his face.

The old lady looked at the two brothers and sister, smiled and shook her head.

"Okay, stop being so sullen." Shen Rulan walked over with a smile and exposed Shen Chumu mercilessly.

"Obviously you are worried about her. You didn't see her yesterday. Today you just claimed to be sick and didn't go to court. You just waited for her at home. Now you've got her back. Why are you putting on airs?"

She pulled Shen Ruzhou to sit next to Shen Chumu.

The brother and sister were sitting next to each other. Shen Chumu touched his nose uncomfortably, glanced at Shen Rulan angrily, picked up the orange on the table and started peeling it.

Shen Ruzhou felt ashamed and happy at the same time, her brother still cared about her so much.

She tugged on Shen Chumu's sleeves, her voice soft and coquettish.

"Brother, are you still angry with me?"

Shen Chumu snorted coldly, "Don't call me brother. You said it yourself back then, and you wanted to break up with the Shen family."

She said anxiously: "I know I was wrong, and I will never say such bastard words again! You are my brother and will always be my brother!"

Shen Chumu looked at her sideways, with a cold look on his handsome face.

"The words you say and the daughter you marry are like water thrown out. You can't take them back. Now that you are Princess Wucheng, why are you back in this poor place like ours?"

Shen Ruzhou wrapped his arm around him and hugged him tightly, his heart so excited that he almost cried.

In her previous life, she never had a proper conversation with her brother after she got married. She relied on her favor at home to unscrupulously hurt her relatives. She deserved to die. She would never be able to let her family down like this again in her life.

She even cried a little, "I don't care, this will always be my home, and you will always be my brother. If you want to drive me away, there's no way!"

The old lady, Shen Rulan and Miaodong didn't interrupt, all with smiles on their faces.

Shen Chumu clicked his tongue, "Are you still acting like a rogue? Do you really think I don't dare to kick you out?"

Shen Ruzhou's beautiful little face wrinkled into a ball, her face buried in his arm, covering her red eyes.

"Brother, I was blinded by lard. My brother and father were all for my own good. I was totally wrong. It was all my fault. I was confused. Now I know I was wrong. Don't be angry. Forgive me. Let me do it, okay?"

Shen Chumu glanced at her and saw that she was obviously crying and looked pitiful. The anger in her heart had long been gone, but her face was still unforgiving, and she was picking at the orange peel with a fierce expression.

"Hmph, aren't your wings stiff? You insist on flying abroad, and you are determined to marry that King Wucheng. Now that you are suffering outside, you know that the food at home is still good?"

With a straight face, he suddenly pinched her face and brought the peeled orange in front of Shen Ruzhou's eyes.

"Eat it, don't you like oranges the most?"

Shen Ruzhou looked at Shen Chumu with tears in her eyes. When she saw that when he was angry, the oranges he peeled were actually for her, tears rolled down his face. The emotions of guilt, self-blame, and lost and recovered instantly swarmed in, trying to engulf her.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! It's my fault, I...I..."

She really wanted to kill herself in her previous life. For an unworthy man, she contradicted, hurt, and abandoned her loved ones who loved her most, and even made them die on the battlefield, wrapped in horse leather...

It was her fault, it was all her fault, and she would never be able to redeem or make up for it in her lifetime.

Shen Chumu immediately frowned and wiped the tears on her face distressedly, "Okay, she's not pretty to begin with, but she becomes even uglier when she cries. Stop crying."

Shen Ruzhou looked at his handsome brother and nodded while sobbing. The old lady was very pleased to see that the two brothers and sister had settled their differences.

Shen Rulan hid her face and smiled. She also felt that Shen Ruzhou was crying with joy. She didn't think deeply about it and said in a joking tone.

"Ruzhou, please eat this orange quickly. It's hard for your brother to keep a cold face for so long. I don't know who heard that you went to the Prince Regent's Mansion yesterday and was so anxious that he couldn't sleep all night."

Shen Chumu snorted dissatisfiedly: "You are tearing me down again!"

Shen Ruzhou tried to calm down his emotions, broke the orange in half and handed it to Shen Chumu? Half, Shen Chumu took it and stuffed it into her mouth.

The sweet and sour taste bloomed in his mouth, and Shen Ruzhou felt sweet in his heart. He leaned his head on Shen Chumu's shoulder and rubbed it greedily.

It's great to have the feeling of family. I hope I can have a good life.

Shen Chumu pushed her forehead away, sat up straight and said seriously.

"Now tell me honestly, what happened with King Wu Cheng, and how did it involve the regent?"

"I heard that you offended Princess Jianing? Also, why did you move out? Did King Wucheng treat you badly?"

The more he talked, the more he frowned, thinking of the humiliation she suffered when they got married, "Even if he is a prince, he can't go too far. To force you to run away from home just after getting married is too much!"

The old lady and Shen Rulan also looked worried. They called Shen Ruzhou back this time just because of recent events, for fear that Shen Ruzhou would be wronged.

Seeing them all on pins and needles, Shen Ruzhou quickly swallowed the orange in his mouth and said seriously.

"It's nothing serious. It doesn't matter. One of the guards of the Prince Regent was injured at the Prince's Palace. I went to the Prince Regent's Palace to treat his injury. He has recovered now and everything is fine."

Shen Chumu's handsome face softened and he asked, "What about the princess? I heard that you beat her?"
