The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 89: Chapter 89: The Thing Controlling Mrs. Shen Chapter 89: Chapter 89: The Thing Controlling Mrs. Shen Mrs. Shen wanted Pei Jue to come to the hospital room alone so she could tell him what she knew. If he brought that wild girl along, how could she say anything?

She looked at Annie and commanded, “You go tell Qingwu, I don’t allow her to come in and see me. I just want to talk to President Pei alone.”

Annie’s mouth twitched.

Why did she have the feeling that the grandmother of the eldest lady didn’t seem to like her very much?

On the contrary, she looked at Shen Yurou with particularly gentle eyes, as if Shen Yurou were her own granddaughter instead…

“I can’t make that decision, but I will convey your wishes to President Pei.”

Mrs. Shen impatiently interrupted Annie.

“Stop saying all that nonsense. You’re just the Pei Clan’s assistant, can’t even handle such a small matter? You’re absolutely useless.”

Annie maintained a polite and professional smile.

“I believe my work performance is for President Pei to judge.”

“Alright, you may leave now.”

Mrs. Shen felt a headache just looking at the secretary.

After Annie left, Mrs. Shen earnestly took Shen Yurou’s hand, “Yurou, remember, after you marry President Pei, chase away all those birds around him. Just looking at them gives me a headache; they must not be good.”

“Grandma, I know.”

Seeing the obedient and charming granddaughter before her, Mrs. Shen smiled contentedly.

Indeed, Yurou was her most sensible granddaughter; the others were just wild girls who couldn’t present themselves properly.

Shen Yurou cautiously observed Mrs. Shen’s expression, then took a Primordial Energy Pill out of her pocket and gave it to Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen had relied on Primordial Energy Pills for years, and upon taking one, her furrowed brow relaxed considerably.

“Grandma, I am your only granddaughter. Only if I marry Pei Jue will you have a good life…”

“You must listen to me and stand by my side…”

Mrs. Shen, drowsy and listening to Shen Yurou’s voice, found the voice in her head gradually replaced by hers, as if some memories were being altered…

“Mm, I know… Grandma knows…”

Seeing Mrs. Shen in this state, Shen Yurou quietly took out Mrs. Shen’s phone to transfer money to herself and deftly removed the gemstone bracelet from Mrs. Shen’s wrist, putting it into her own pocket.

“Grandma, remember, it was Qingwu who took your money and jewels. Her hands aren’t clean; she’s always coveting your things, bringing bad luck…”

Mrs. Shen, who had been superstitious all her life, immediately repeated upon hearing this, “Thief! She’s a thief! Bad luck!”

Having done all this, Shen Yurou then stood up to tuck Mrs. Shen in, watching her fall into a deep sleep.

The Primordial Energy Pill was truly a marvelous thing.

It was a pity Elder Pei and Elder Shen didn’t get to consume it. Her supply of Primordial Energy Pills was limited; to keep Mrs. Shen so fond of her and compliant, she would have to get more.

Half an hour later, Pei Jue led Qingwu to the front of Mrs. Shen’s hospital room.

Annie stood guard at the door, “President, Miss Qingwu, Mrs. Shen just woke up but she said she wishes to see President Pei alone.”

This was Mrs. Shen’s wish; Annie was simply relaying it.

Though she did feel a bit peculiar about Mrs. Shen, as if the old lady wasn’t genuinely concerned about the eldest lady and the boss’ marriage…

Qingwu understood; it was normal for Mrs. Shen to not want to see her.

“I’ll go visit Grandpa first.”

Pei Jue’s eyes flickered with a trace of surprise. Her relationship with the Shen Family’s old lady didn’t seem good?

He originally thought that the Shen Family treated her like her brothers did, cherishing her. If there were those who didn’t treat her well, he wouldn’t mind giving her more people who cherished her…

The Pei Family might also suit her well.

“Alright, I’ll say hello to Grandma and then come find you.”

Pei Jue pushed open the door and found a dozen caregivers standing grandly inside, along with a flamboyantly dressed Shen Yurou.

Mrs. Shen shivered at the icy aura surrounding him as soon as she saw him!

The helm holder of the Pei Family lived up to his reputation; just his presence radiated the authority of a top leader. If Yurou successfully married him, she surely would lead a good life…

“Hello, Grandma.”

“Hello, dear Pei, come here to Grandma.”

Mrs. Shen warmly beckoned Pei Jue over, wanting him to stand next to Shen Yurou.

Shen Yurou wore a shy, eager expression as she looked at Pei Jue, coquettishly saying, “Brother Pei, long time no see…”

Seeing this setup, Pei Jue felt his eyelid twitch, his earlier displeasure about not having Qingwu by his side turning into hostility. His mild smile vanished, replaced by a cold demeanor.

“No need; just say what you want to, Grandma.”

Seeing him unwilling to comply, Mrs. Shen coughed in embarrassment.

For some reason, now only one thought was in her mind.

Such a good man could only belong to her granddaughter…

“Dear Pei, Grandma will be honest with you. Xiao Wu isn’t right for you, better call off your engagement with her.”

“You don’t know—she took 30 million from me; the Shen Family won’t miss such pocket money. Not to mention she took my jewelry too!”

“I bet she’s messing around with dubious people outside; that’s why she needs so much money.”

“Even her adoptive parents said she’s of poor character, absolutely unfit to be the future mistress of the Pei Family…”

Mrs. Shen pulled Shen Yurou closer to Pei Jue.

“Our Yurou is the one most suitable for you!”

Shen Yurou’s face was filled with shyness and excitement!

As long as Pei Jue was willing, she would go and get the marriage certificate with him right now!

Thinking of becoming the Pei Family’s young madam made Shen Yurou’s heart flutter.

Pei Jue’s expression grew darker.

He gazed at Mrs. Shen lying on the hospital bed, his face laden with restrained displeasure.

“Mrs. Shen, I came here because you are Qingwu’s grandmother, not to hear you slander her.”

Mrs. Shen panicked immediately.

How could Pei Jue not believe her!

She was clearly speaking the truth!

Surely the Lin Family wouldn’t lie after raising Qingwu for nineteen years?

They were the ones who knew Qingwu best, Pei Jue must have been deceived by her!

“I’m speaking the truth; you’ve been fooled by Qingwu! Dear Pei, being with Yurou is what’s beneficial for both the Pei and Shen Families; that wild girl isn’t worthy of marrying you! Who knows how filthy she’s been outside…”

Pei Jue furrowed his brow.

How could her own grandmother use such unspeakable language against her?

“Mrs. Shen, please watch your words! I know better than you who Qingwu is.”

Seeing that Pei Jue was about to leave, Mrs. Shen, afraid of not achieving her goals, clutched her chest and lay down.

“Oh, my heart hurts! Am I going to die soon? Yurou, if Grandma dies, you must protect yourself well…”

“Grandma, don’t scare me!”

Shen Yurou cried, looking pleadingly at Pei Jue, “President Pei, I beg you, don’t make Grandma sad…”
