Chapter 892: It Wasn’t Her (11)

Shen Zihao was stunned.

He stared at the bartender incredulously.

He furrowed his brow, while at the same time he felt a sort of gladness in his heart.

In all honesty, even though he had married Xia Nuannuan, the fact was that there was still something about her that weighed heavily on his mind.

The two thousand had been his biggest conundrum.

From his perspective, Xia Nuannuan was a bit of a contradiction.

She was gentle, kind, generous and very presentable.

But at the same time, she seemed to have no self-respect.

She had practically slept with a stranger for the transactional price of two thousand… He had found her difficult to respect because of this.

This had always been like an invisible wall between him and Xia Nuannuan. So much that, even as close as he had come to falling in love with her, he had felt a certain repulsion.

But now that invisible barrier seemed to have disappeared.

He was almost jumping with joy!

So it turned out that his Nuannuan was not a materialistic woman.

He shot up from his seat, feeling rather panicky after the momentary happiness and excitement.

Because he anxiously recalled the decisiveness with which she had packed her belongings and left the Shen family.

Indeed.

At the time, Xia Nuannuan had said that she hadn’t taken the money, but he had chosen not to believe her—on the contrary, he had tried to cover the situation. At that point, he had felt like he was being very tolerant with her. But in hindsight, that was just him showing that he did not trust her and that he believed she had stolen it.

Hence, Xia Nuannuan must have been terribly angry and upset.

He found himself unable to down his drink at the thought of her being upset .

He stood up, threw 200 on the bar counter and then walked out of the bar.

He got into the car, started up the engine and sped to Xia Nuannuan’s rental apartment.

When he arrived, he dashed upstairs to the apartment.

Raising his hand, he was about to knock on the door, when he thought… that Nuannuan was probably still angry. Otherwise, with her gentle nature, she wouldn’t have packed her belongings and left. Even if he tried to explain anything, she would probably not listen, right?

Immediately, he felt dejected.

He stood there looking at the door, suddenly feeling a little helpless.

Shen Zihao sighed deeply.

He suddenly recalled her words, “So I can no longer live in this house.”

Indeed.

Now everyone in the house felt like Nuannuan was a thief.

In order for her to agree to come back, he had to prove her innocence and make a thorough investigation of the whole matter.

Otherwise, there was no point in having her return home.

Shen Zihao’s pupils shrank as he turned around. He got back into his car and drove home.

Upon entering the house, he heard Shen Xiu hollering angrily, “How dare this girl with a poor family background throw a temper tantrum here? She even packed her belongings and left the house. She has such a poor character! Go, let her go and never return! She has the cheek after stealing? We don’t need a daughter-in-law like her.”

Following this, Mei Feng’s tried to calm him down in a low voice, “Don’t be angry. She’s young after all and easily embarrassed. Blowing this matter up in front of everyone made her look bad.”

“Look bad? If she cared about looking bad, why did she steal? She’s so short-sighted that she thinks 50 thousand is worth stealing.”

When Shen Zihao heard this, he was immediately sullen and entered the house saying, “So Dad, do you mean that 5 billion would be worth stealing?”
