At this moment, Xu Ruowei wasn't considering at all whether what she said to Huo Yun Shen was right or wrong.
She treated Huo Yun Shen that way, yet still expected him to greet her with a smile.
From beginning to end, she never looked for reasons within herself.
Instead, she always blamed An Nuan for all the mistakes.
It could be said that An Nuan was quite innocent.
"Ruowei, you handled this matter too hastily. Actually, if it had been handled properly, things wouldn't have turned out like this," Shen Shuhui said with a slight frown, expressing her displeasure. She admitted that her daughter had some schemes, but lacked enough composure, which was why she had stumbled.
She blamed herself for being too young.
At this moment, Shen Shuhui's brows were furrowed, and she gazed into the distance, seemingly contemplating a solution.
Seeing her mother remain silent, Xu Ruowei grew anxious. "Mom, you said you have a plan. Then hurry up and do it."
"I really can't stand to see An Nuan for even a moment."
"As long as An Nuan is dead, that's all that matters."
"Mom, do you know? If An Nuan continues to exist, my situation will become very difficult, and everything I have now will vanish into thin air."
"Mom, if even Shen Xizhou abandons me, then not only will I be ruined, but everything the Xu family has now will also collapse."
"The Xu family's current smooth sailing is entirely dependent on Shen Xizhou's connections."
"If there's no longer any connection with Shen Xizhou, will the Xu family still be as glorious and at ease?"
"Mom, the Xu family and I are intertwined now. Without me, there is no Xu family."
"Mom, it's best if you think quickly about how to handle this."
"It needs to be resolved quickly. The longer it drags on, the harder it will be to resolve. My situation will become more and more difficult, and by then, even Shen Xizhou won't believe me. At that point, even if I want to try and he wants to help me solve the problem, there will be no opportunity."
"Ruowei, don't forget, I am your mother."
"You must understand that without your mother, it would be impossible for you to have a smooth sailing in the Shen family."
"Don't you forget how much effort the Xu family and I have put in for you to be where you are today."
Shen Shuhui's expression changed as she spoke.
Being threatened by her own daughter, how disgraceful would that sound if it were to get out?
"Ruowei, I'll take what you just said as you being in a bad mood and saying those reckless words. But this is the last time."
Xu Ruowei finally restrained her temper. "Mom, I didn't mean it like that. I was too anxious just now, so I said some thoughtless things. I..."
"It's good that you know you were wrong."
"Mom, then what should we do about this matter? I'm in a complete mess and have no idea what to do."
"Mom, you know, as long as An Nuan is gone, all these problems will disappear."
"But An Nuan is always there, and I can't stand it."
"Mom, if I lose all connection with Shen Xizhou, then you'll be the one who loses face. You won't be able to hold your head up in front of people you know."
"Mom, I'm thinking of you."
What a statement, "I'm thinking of you."
She was clearly thinking of herself, yet she insisted it was for others.
Shen Shuhui naturally understood her daughter's thoughts and did not expose her.
"Mom, if the Xu family were powerful, perhaps I wouldn't be so anxious right now."
"Perhaps I wouldn't be facing these problems."
"Even if I did encounter them, I would be able to resolve them immediately."
"I wouldn't have any lingering worries."
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Shuhui's expression became extremely unpleasant. Her gaze towards her daughter darkened.
"Mom, Wang Xuerou is still in the hospital. Why is she still alive?"
"I told you before that we should deal with Wang Xuerou."
"Mom, you promised me back then that you would handle it properly."
"You said you would take care of it immediately. But what about now? Nothing has been resolved."
"Or is it that you feel sorry for Wang Xuerou and don't want to act against her?"
Xu Ruowei said loudly, "But you were also involved in what happened to Wang Xuerou back then."
Shen Shuhui looked at Xu Ruowei coldly and said, "Ruowei, yes, I did not act against Wang Xuerou."
"She is your cousin, how could you bring yourself to do it?"
"She probably won't wake up. Even so, are you still unwilling to let her go?"
"Do you know? The problems I am facing now are because the people around me are harming me."
"If one day Wang Xuerou wakes up and points at me, telling the whole world that I harmed her."
"Mom, what should I do then?"
"Then I will have no way to defend myself, right?"
Xu Ruowei seemed to recall something and said excitedly, "Most importantly, Wang Xuerou has many things she did for me. If she wakes up, then everything will be over."
"Mom, can't you be ruthless for my sake?"
Seeing that Shen Shuhui seemed to be moved, Xu Ruowei lowered her head and said with some dejection, "Mom, actually, some things have always been borne by me alone. I always thought I could handle them myself, so I didn't say anything."
"But now, I feel like I can't hold on anymore."
"What is it?" Shen Shuhui's heart tightened as she saw her daughter speaking with a serious expression.
"An Nuan is back. Back then, the people who worked for her were all destroyed by our schemes."
"But now, An Nuan has a man who is devoted to her, and most importantly, that man is incredibly powerful. This matter has become even more difficult."
"What?"
At this moment, Shen Shuhui was truly panicked. She truly hadn't expected such a thing.
This An Nuan, how could she have such good luck? Every man who appeared by her side was excellent, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to deal with them.
Seeing that Shen Shuhui seemed to genuinely care, Xu Ruowei spoke again. "Mom, if we don't get rid of An Nuan now, then even if we want to act later, we might truly have no way."
"At that time, we will only be in a passive situation."
"Perhaps, we will even be suppressed by An Nuan."
"Mom, even now, you still think I'm worrying unnecessarily?"
Xu Ruowei looked at Shen Shuhui, saying with some concern, "Shen Xizhou also knows about this. Although he hasn't said much, I know he's already starting to distance himself from me."
