Chapter 400: Chapter 397
They fell into a trap they had set in advance, eventually losing their innocence and being injected with an unknown liquid.
How could she not regret it, how could she not be afraid?
If she really had so adverse reaction, how would she face them?
She truly hated all those who had hurt her.
As Li Zaijun struggled to compose herself, she turned to sit beside her sister-in-law.
However, just as she almost sat down, her glance inadvertently swept across the opposite side.
She withdrew her gaze.
But, before she knew it, her little body suddenly stiffened.
It was truly stiffened, as if all the blood in her body had solidified at that mont.
Sitting there, her entire body began to go numb.
Who had she just seen…?
She slowly looked again, and when she clearly saw the man sitting across the dining table once more—
Li Zaijun’s breathing beca slightly disordered.
Her throat painfully swallowed.
And across from her, Shen Lin was also looking right at her.
However, in contrast to her stiff, pale face, he smiled gently at her.
He still appeared very open and straightforward.
Because that night, it was he who had saved her, and by now, she should know that he did nothing to her that night.
Although he was not exactly a saint, he was certainly not a bad guy.
But as Li Zaijun watched his ergence, watching the person who had done those things to her that night just sitting across from her, she almost completely fell apart.
Her little fists were clenched tightly, as if it were not for the presence of her aunt and uncle, she would flip the table right then and there.
Wen Xian noticed that sothing was off with her and saw her gaze fixed on Shen Lin, imdiately thinking that this was not good.
She was thinking about how to pull her to the restroom and explain the situation clearly.
At this mont, Mother Lu was serving so dishes to Little Zaijun, and glanced at Junjun’s expression, saying:
“What’s wrong, Junjun? You look a bit pale. Are you feeling alright?”
As she spoke, she put down her chopsticks and placed the back of her hand against her forehead.
Li Zaijun, however, lowered her head, picked up her chopsticks, and tried hard to keep her hands from trembling, whispering:
“It’s nothing, I might have a cold, and my stomach doesn’t feel very good.”
“Could it be that you kicked off your blankets while sleeping last night? You always do that, you’re such a restless sleeper. I’ll serve you a bowl of fish soup to chase away the cold, and I’ll find so dicine for you to take before bed tonight.”
As she spoke, Mother Lu went to fetch the soup.
Li Zaijun didn’t utter a word, just kept her head down, silent.
Father Lu had been quiet until then but was watching the scene unfold without a word, and finally, his gaze slowly shifted towards Shen Lin.
He picked up his teacup, looked at Shen Lin, and with a hint of a smile that was barely there, said:
“Xiaoshen, how are things going with your girlfriend now?”
At these words, Li Zaijun’s small fra stiffened once more.
It seed that this remark had shocked her yet again.
And when she slowly raised her eyes to look at him once more, her eyes were filled with disgust.
It seed she was extrely disgusted with the fact that he had a girlfriend and yet was still doing those things to her out there.
In doing this, how was he any different from her disgusting ex-boyfriend? They were both hypocritically brutal…
She couldn’t even understand how such a person could co to their house!
Why did her aunt, uncle, and even everyone seem to know him?
However, after Father Lu’s remark, Shen Lin lowered his head and chuckled softly, sowhat helplessly responding:
“We broke up a long ti ago, just a few days after I last visited your house, uncle.”
