The boss is chasing after the chaebol’s ex-wife, but you can’t afford it

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the carriage became as cold and frozen as in the coldest days of winter.

Tang Qiaoer and Lin Su looked at each other in fear, and then she asked hurriedly:

"Auntie Wu, what do you mean by mental problems?"

The muscles around Wu Ma's eyes trembled slightly, as if she was caught in an extremely uncomfortable memory. She took a deep breath and spoke:

"I have been working in the Shen family for nearly 30 years. Among the servants still working in Guanchao Manor, except for the housekeeper and Secretary Zhu who works for Mr. Shen, there are not many who have worked as long as me.

When I first came to the Shen family, I was assigned to serve Mrs. Shen and the eldest young master. However, I was not their personal servant, but just followed the head servant, washing clothes and doing some rough work. Even delicate work like serving tea and pouring water was not my turn at that time.

At first, I thought that Mrs. Shen disliked me because I came from a poor family in the village and because I was clumsy. Later, I found out that Mrs. Shen had someone to take care of her food, clothing, and daily life. They were all her trusted people brought from the Feng family. It was difficult for ordinary servants in the Shen family to get close to her. "

Lin Su couldn't help but be confused, "Why is this? Is there something shameful that Mrs. Shen wants to hide from the Shen family?"

"Could it be that Mrs. Shen really has a mental illness?" Tang Qiaoer's eyes darkened as she recalled her previous speculation with her brothers.

Wu Ma frowned, "To be exact, it's Madam Shen... She's a complete lunatic!"

Tang Qiaoer and Lin Su couldn't believe it: "Mad man?!"

"Although Madam Shen has someone to take care of her, and she has been living alone in the courtyard behind Guanchao Manor, she is still under our noses. How can she hide it after so long? I heard that the worst time was when Madam Shen went crazy and didn't recognize her relatives. She rushed over and bit off a piece of flesh from the face of the servant who delivered the meal. There was blood all over the face. It was quite horrifying!"

Lin Su was stunned, "How can this be considered a human being? This is simply..."

He was too embarrassed to say that word.

"This is a very serious mental illness. At that stage, Mrs. Shen had already lost her self-awareness, suffered from hallucinations and delusions, and was impulsive and irritable. She could not control herself at all." Tang Qiaoer sighed helplessly. She felt very sad when she heard these things.

It is understandable that she was already crazy and was completely abandoned by her husband, and finally lost control and committed suicide by shooting herself.

"I signed a confidentiality agreement about this matter, and Mrs. Shen has passed away for many years. I had planned to keep it a secret for the rest of my life."

Wu Ma was filled with worry, and she squeezed Tang Qiaoer's fingertips until they turned red, "But now, I must tell you everything I know!

The eldest young master probably takes after his mother. Although he looks normal, he has a potential tendency towards violence, which is even scarier than his mother!"

Tang Qiaoer looked solemn. She raised her hand and gently stroked Wu Ma's tense back. "Wu Ma, you know something, right?"

"That was more than 20 years ago... when our young master had just come to the Shen family for less than two years. One time, it was my turn to be on duty, and I went to the other courtyard to deliver dinner to Madam Shen."

Wu Ma's face turned pale as horrific and bloody memories flooded into her mind, "What a shame... I saw with my own eyes... the young master was torturing and killing the wild cats in the backyard!

He was stabbing the dead animals with his dagger while laughing so happily! I will never forget that smile. It scared me so much that I couldn’t even walk!"

Lin Su shuddered suddenly, his scalp tingling just thinking about that scene!

Tang Qiaoer's heart suddenly tightened!

Shen Jingzhe...tortures animals?

If Wu Ma hadn't said it herself, she would never have been able to associate that gentle, elegant and refined man with the image of a man who had lost his humanity and was cruel and ruthless!

"There were more than one small animal that he had harmed in Guanchao Manor! Later, the housekeeper even complained privately that he could find the bloody remains of kittens and puppies in the flowerbed in the back garden every now and then!

It turns out that he not only killed them, but also dismembered them!"

Wu Ma's eyes widened, still frightened, "Madam, do you think a normal person with a sound mind would do such a thing? How could he have the heart to do it!"

Tang Qiaoer frowned, pursed her lips, and fell into suppressed silence for a moment.

Madam Shen was insane, Shen Jingzhe abused animals, and the heir of the Feng family, Shen Jingzhe's uncle, also killed his lover in an extremely cruel way...

Instantly, a terrifying thought came to her mind -

Could it be that... everyone in the Feng family is mentally ill?

And Shen Jingzhe also inherited his mother's mental illness, so that's why he did such crazy things?

"Shen Jingzhe...is this really abnormal?"

Lin Sumu shook his head in disbelief. "But he doesn't look like he has any problem at all. He's very stable!"

"So this is what I fear the most. I'm afraid that he has been disguising himself all these years, suppressing his true nature to get close to the young lady... I'm afraid that he has bad intentions, and I'm afraid that he will hurt you!" Aunt Wu was so anxious that her eyes were red and wet.

"Cruel and cruel killing of animals shows that Master Shen has violent tendencies, is cold-blooded by nature, and even has an antisocial personality. However, there is not enough evidence to prove that he has a mental illness."

Tang Qiaoer calmed down her emotions, her eyes pondered and moved slightly, "However, mental illness does have a certain chance of being inherited. Not only Madam Shen, I think Madam Shen's brother is more or less not normal."

"Miss, I remember now! I seem to have heard my father mention it."

Lin Su opened his eyes, "The murder case of Feng Luchuan, the eldest son of the Feng family, was handled by my father's colleagues. He was sentenced to death in the first instance, and in the second instance, his lawyer submitted a diagnosis report that he had a mental illness, so his sentence was changed to life imprisonment.

Our Shengjing judicial system has strict identification and testing procedures for whether prisoners are mentally ill. Feng Luchuan was able to escape the layers of supervision and inspection, which can only mean one thing, he is a complete mental patient! "

Tang Qiaoer lowered her eyelashes and agreed with Lin Su's idea.

"In short, Madam, you must stay as far away from the young master as possible! As the saying goes, you can tell a person's character by looking at him when he is three years old. It is difficult to change a person's nature even if he changes his ways! After not seeing him for twenty years, how could he behave himself when he returns? Who knows what conspiracy he might have planned for him to suddenly come back..."

As Aunt Wu spoke, she slapped her forehead, "Oh no! Will he steal the position of heir from my young master? He's so crazy... he won't attack my young master, will he?!"

Although this was just an unfounded speculation, Tang Qiaoer's throat suddenly felt like it was strangled and she had difficulty breathing.

After a while, she looked at Wu Ma with a stern and resolute gaze:

"If that's the case, then I can't hide from him any more."

Wu Ma and Lin Su were both shocked: "Why?!"

"If he comes back and behaves himself, I won't do anything. But if he harbors evil intentions towards Jing Jue, I will never let him go."

Tang Qiaoer raised her chin slightly, her beautiful eyes were like a mirror lake at midnight, but they contained unpredictable power. "When he returns to Shen's, he will definitely hide all his actions from Jing Jue and other members of the Shen family. But if he wants to get close to me, and I extend an olive branch to him, he may not hide everything from me to show his sincerity.

Even if he intends to hide it, if I don't get close to him, I will know nothing about him and have no idea what he is planning, so no matter what, I can't back down."

"But Madam! This is too dangerous!"

Wu Ma heard about their breakup from Han Xian, and she felt so distressed that she almost cried, "Now, the young master is in that state... he can't be by your side to protect you. What will you do alone? You can't take risks again!"

Tang Qiaoer forced out a relieved smile, suppressing the sadness that kept welling up in her heart:

"I have never thought about relying on Jingjie for my whole life, and no one can let me rely on them for my whole life. From beginning to end, the only person you can rely on is yourself."

As soon as she finished speaking, her cell phone rang and it was Brother Seven calling.

As if she had a premonition, Tang Qiaoer's heart was beating wildly, and she answered the call:

"Brother Seven."

"Qiaoqiao, the DNA test results are out."

Tang Feng's voice was shaking with violent emotions, "Li Huan... is the fifth brother!"
