Mommy, the wealthy daddy has come to propose again.

I only ate a few bites of the meal, but I did eat a lot of fruit, and the feeling of hunger gradually became less.

At this time, the TV series had finished an episode and Bai Ning got up and prepared to go out. She didn't want to stay in this house for even a second longer.

Bai Ning didn't say a word to Shen Ruxue the whole morning. She didn't know what expression and mentality she should use to greet her mother. Because of what happened last night, she always felt that there was an invisible shackle between them, and they were gradually no longer the same as before.

Shen Ruxue saw through Bai Ning's thoughts and called out, "Ningning, Mom knows that I said the wrong thing yesterday. I was confused for a moment and that's why I said that. Are you still blaming me?"

It seems that she knows she said the wrong thing!

Bai Ning stopped suddenly. Perhaps it was because of the bond between mother and daughter, when she turned around and saw Shen Ruxue looking at her with lost and reluctant eyes, her heart softened inexplicably.

She shook her head: "No, what happened yesterday is in the past, so let it go. I have forgotten most of it."

I just hope you won’t mention it again.

Bai Ning swallowed the second half of the sentence and finally couldn't say it out loud. She was afraid that if she said that, it would disappoint her mother. After all, every parent wants their sons to be successful, and it was understandable that Shen Ruxue hoped that she could fight for the inheritance rights.

"Ningning, is the food that mom cooked not tasty? I just saw you put down your chopsticks after only taking two bites. Are you hungry? There is a cake in the refrigerator. I'll get it for you."

Shen Ruxue took Bai Ning's hand and sat on the sofa. Worried that she was not full, she wanted to get up and get a cake from the refrigerator.

"No need," Bai Ning said calmly, "I'm not hungry. I just ate some fruit and I'm full."

She was telling the truth. She had a small appetite to begin with, and even if she ate normally she couldn't eat much. She guessed that Shen Ruxue was just worrying too much because she was still brooding over what happened last night.

Seeing Bai Ning waving her hand and saying that she was not hungry, Shen Ruxue sat back and held her daughter's hand, and the two chatted casually.

Most of them were about daily matters. Shen Ruxue asked and Bai Ning answered. There was no extra nonsense during the conversation, and it felt like they were just making small talk.

Soon the nonsense chat was over, and the two of them fell silent. Even the air around them felt a little awkward.

Bai Ning suddenly remembered that when she went to visit Shen Ruyang in prison yesterday, the prison guard told her that Shen Ruyang had died suddenly after taking sleeping pills a month ago. She had been hiding this from Shen Ruxue, fearing that her mother would not be able to withstand the blow.

But on second thought, Shen Ruyang is Shen Ruxue's brother after all, and he has been dead for such a long time. As a sister, I am entitled to know this news. Even if I don't tell her now, I will know it sooner or later.

Bai Ning took a deep breath and said, "Mom, there is something I want to tell you, but you have to be mentally prepared first."

Her tone was serious and didn't sound like she was joking, which made Shen Ruxue very confused.

"what's up?"

Bai Ning pursed his lips and hesitated just before hesitating.

Why did Shen Ruyang ask the prison guards not to tell the Shen family about his death before he died?

It was clearly he who revealed the clue that Mr. Tang Sanye appeared at the auction, which was also indirectly revenge for Shen You. It was a happy event worth celebrating. Why did he choose to commit suicide at this juncture?

Bai Ning really wanted to know the reason behind all this, but since the dead cannot be resurrected, no one was destined to give her an answer.

"Ningning, what's so mysterious?"

Seeing Bai Ning didn't say anything, Shen Ruxue's curiosity was also aroused, and she said, "Ningning, I'm your mother, you can tell me anything you want to say. Don't keep it in your heart. You will feel better if you say it out."

Bai Ning raised his eyes and looked deeply at Shen Ruxue. His mother didn't know who she was going to talk about next, so she looked curious and even expressed concern for him, thinking that he was in trouble.
