Chapter 275 God helps me
Shen Jingyu's expression remained unchanged as she slowly said, "He is a profit-seeking villain, so naturally we can't expect him to have any moral integrity."
Qin Xuerong sat angrily opposite Shen Jingyu, with one arm resting on the edge of the table and a handkerchief tightly clenched in her hand.
Because she was so angry, her lips were pursed, her jawline was tense, her breathing was unstable, and her eyes were full of anger.
"I don't know which god has blessed Shen Shuyi. How come he can always turn danger into safety?"
Shen Jingyu put down the book in her hand, stood up and walked to the incense burner, picked up the poker with her nail-painted fingers, and gently piqued the flame inside.
"Mother, don't you understand? Shen Shuyi has been on guard against you and me from the beginning."
Qin Xuerong said coldly: "I really don't know where I gave myself away."
Shen Jingyu sneered, "You sent people to the Jade Buddha Temple to torture her for many years. Is Shen Shuyi a fool?"
This one sentence left Qin Xuerong speechless, her face flushed as if she was scolded by her daughter.
But unfortunately, this was indeed a wrong decision she made back then.
Shen Jingyu said slowly: "If you want to control her, you should have kept her in the mansion and treated her as your own daughter. She would naturally be willing to share your worries. Whether it is the marriage or the Zhao family's dowry, it will naturally be up to you to control."
"If you couldn't bear to see her do well and sent her to the Jade Buddha Temple, you should have sent someone to keep a close eye on her and not give her a chance to return home. You could have even been a 'loving mother' during all those years at the Jade Buddha Temple."
But with so many options to choose from, this mother chose the stupidest one.
Qin Xuerong's face looked a little bad after being reprimanded so mercilessly by Shen Jingyu. Not only did she blush with embarrassment, she also felt a little hot.
But after sending Shen Shuyi to the Jade Buddha Temple, Jingyu did remind her, but she didn't take it to heart.
In fact, Shen Jingyu did not persuade her much. After all, in her opinion, Shen Shuyi was not worth taking to heart.
But I didn't expect that after not seeing her for several years, she has been completely transformed and her skills are amazing.
Qin Xuerong didn't want to continue this topic, so she could only ask: "What should we do now? Should we continue? Shen Shuyi is very strange, could she have noticed something?"
Shen Jingyu felt that her mother was unusually smart for a moment, so she picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea, then said, "Shen Shuyi is so smart, he must have guessed that we have a backup plan."
"She...she knows that we want to kill her? Will she find an excuse and not go?" Qin Xuerong asked.
Shen Jingyu raised her eyes and glanced at her, then said faintly, "No, she will definitely go."
If she were Shen Shuyi, she would definitely go. After all, instead of waiting for the other party to make another move, it would be better to make good use of this opportunity.
Otherwise, next time, the enemy will be in the dark and we will be in the light, which will only create more variables.
Therefore, if she had some courage, she would definitely join this game.
Qin Xuerong was a little confused when she heard this. The series of events that had happened since Shen Shuyi returned home had made her feel a little afraid of Shen Shuyi from the bottom of her heart.
Every time she faced Shen Shuyi, she felt inexplicably insecure and uneasy.
"So...then we still have to proceed as planned?"
Shen Jingyu said coldly: "Of course, now that I have the title of 'disaster star', my father agreed to go to the Jade Buddha Temple to pray for blessings, so I naturally cannot waste this opportunity."
Qin Xuerong couldn't help but worry: "But she already knows about it, so she will definitely take precautions. Can we...can we still succeed?"
Shen Jingyu lowered her eyes, the peacock-emerald green hairpin on her head sparkling brightly: "So what if they know? Even if they know, we still have a chance of winning. Besides, she, Shen Shuyi, doesn't have supernatural powers, so it's still unknown who will win."
After hearing Shen Jingyu's words, Qin Xuerong felt much more at ease.
Then she thought of another thing: "Do you still want to use the method you mentioned before to win back your grandmother and father's favor..."
"It's too late. Now the crime of 'evil spirit' is pinned on me. Even if you try the same method again, it won't be very effective. It's better to find another opportunity." Shen Jingyu directly denied her thoughts.
Qin Xuerong couldn't help feeling regretful and a little unwilling.
That day, Jingyu suggested that she cut some flesh for the old lady as a guide to help her recover.
By then, Shen Jingchuan will definitely be grateful for her efforts, and the old lady will also remember her filial piety. In addition, if Shen Shuyi is confirmed to be a disaster star, she and Yu Jie'er will be able to turn the tide and change the current situation.
Unfortunately...it's too late...
After all, if she did this again now, the old lady would only think that she was atoning for Sister Yu's sins.
"Is there no other way?" Qin Xuerong was still unwilling, especially when she thought of Shen Jingchuan's cold eyes today and everyone's rejection of her, she became even more impatient.
Shen Jingyu frowned and said in a slow and soothing voice: "Mother, a little impatience can ruin a big plan, there is no need to rush. As long as Shen Shuyi dies, who else in this mansion can be your opponent?"
After hearing this, Qin Xuerong gritted her teeth, her eyes darkened: "You are right! The most important thing now is to take Shen Shuyi's life!"

After seeing Qin Xuerong off, Shen Jingyu glanced at the bright yellow talisman paper on her window, took a deep breath, and looked away.
At this time, Baoqin hurried in: "Miss, His Highness sent someone to deliver the message."
Shen Jingyu perked up and took a secret letter.
Shen Jingyu read the letter, burned it, and said to Baoqin, "Find a map to the Jade Buddha Temple."
"Yes."
The map was spread out on the desk. Shen Jingyu's eyes fell on it and she observed it carefully for a while.
After a while, she couldn't help but smile and said, "God is really helping me!"
Baoqin observed her expression and saw that she was in a good mood, so she couldn't help but say, "Second Miss is a worthless person. How can she compete with a pearl like you? She is just courting death."
Shen Jingyu smiled. Indeed, she shouldn't waste too much time on someone like Shen Shuyi.

Yunshu Garden.
Shen Shuyi, with her jade hands supporting her cheeks, sat in front of the window, watching Yuping and Feicui fiddling with the newly planted flowers and plants in the yard.
As winter was approaching, many flowers and plants could not survive, but Shen Shuyi did not want to face the gray dead branches all day, so he transplanted some flowers and plants that could survive the winter.
"Miss, you have been sitting here for half an hour. What are you thinking about?" Jinzhu brought her a plate of pastries. Seeing that Shen Shuyi had not moved for such a long time, she spoke in a gentle voice.
Shen Shuyi collapsed on the couch and said boredly: "I'm thinking about how to pour a basin of dog blood on Shen Jingyu~"
Unfortunately, there is no one in hand~
Shen Jingyu has many secret guards given by the Eighth Prince by her side. Jiang Li is not convenient to enter the mansion, and there are no such masters among the maids.
Alas, I don’t know if Xingwanglou found the person she wanted.
At this moment, Agate came in from outside and whispered, "Miss, someone at the concierge said there is a guy claiming to be from Xingwanglou, please go and inspect the goods."
Upon hearing this, Shen Shuyi's eyes lit up and he stood up from the couch: "Change clothes!"
