To Kill Someone is To Eliminate Their Heart

Shen Yuhan couldn’t appreciate the show, he was thinking about how he should get along with Shan Tianfeng.

After the two of them entered the door, Shen Yuhan no longer had to think about it, the relationship between his husband and his father was very average.

After Shan Qihuan sat down, Shan Tianfeng threw him a mobile phone with an angry look on his face: “What’s going on? You just got married and went out to fool around with others?”

Shan Qihuan, who was expressionless and very calm, quickly browsed the entertainment news on his mobile phone, it was exactly what happened in the morning at the clubhouse that Liu Tan went to yesterday, there is only a back figure in the picture, and the entertainment reporter deliberately dug holes in the text, the title read, ‘It is suspected that Shan Qihuan, the son of the Shan family, was having fun in a club and was taken away by the police?’

The figure from the back looks a bit like him, but it’s definitely not him.

It was nothing more than a manuscript that the Third Madam of the third house asked someone to send.

“It’s not me.” Shan Qihuan simply stated the facts, Shan Tianfeng can choose to believe or not.

Shan Tianfeng didn’t even look at him, instead, he asked Shen Yuhan, who still didn’t know what was going on: “Yuhan, was he not at home yesterday?”

Shen Yuhan told the truth: “He is at home, he picked me up from class in the morning, and accompanied me shopping in the afternoon, we were both at home in the evening, and didn’t go out.”

Shan Tianfeng’s expression softened a little, realizing that he might have misunderstood Shan Qihuan: “Really didn’t go out?”

Shen Yuhan rarely lied, and his eyes were extremely sincere: “We didn’t go out, we even watched a movie, what happened?”

Seeing that Shen Yuhan didn’t look like he was covering for Shan Qihuan, Shan Tianfeng said: “It’s nothing, just some unreliable gossip.”

Shan Qihuan has long been accustomed1司空見慣 (sī kōng jiàn guàn): a common occurrence (idiom); be too common to surprise people. to this kind of thing, after his career grew bigger and bigger, these things happened frequently, and now he is too lazy to explain.

Shen Yuhan: “So that’s it.” At present, he doesn’t know that the Shan family is a rich and powerful family2豪門 (háo mén): rich and powerful (families); rich and influential clan; aristocratic; big shots., but he just thinks it’s like his father heard before about his brother who had an extramarital affair and ruined the family tradition, he wanted to know the specific situation, if something really happens, take care of it according to the family law, if nothing happens, go find the person who spread the rumors and beat him up.

The matter was so lightly resolved, more uneventful than any of the previous conflicts between Shan Tianfeng and him, so simple that it did not seem like a father and son’s way of dealing with each other.

Shan Qihuan took the initiative to pour tea for Shan Tianfeng, and also poured a cup for Shen Yuhan, as a way of thanking him for solving a small problem for him.

Shan Tianfeng is quite enjoying this moment, he has no shortage of grandchildren, so he is not too concerned about whether or not Shan Qihuan and Shen Yuhan have children.

“Look at my head, I almost forgot one thing.” He took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Shen Yuhan: “This is pocket money for you, all daughter-in-law also has it, this is yours.”

It’s for his daughter-in-law, Shen Yuhan is not pretentious at all, since everyone else has it, there’s no reason why he shouldn’t take it.

“Thank you, Father.”

This change of title was very natural, and Shan Tianfeng felt very comfortable listening to it.

Shen Yuhan is not dissatisfied with his status as ‘daughter-in-law’, if it were ‘Shen Yuhan’, he might have curled his lips, however, Shen Yuhan believed from the bottom of his heart that he was Shan Qihuan’s wife, and naturally, he was Shan Tianfeng’s daughter-in-law.

They got married in the presence of all their relatives and friends, no matter how pretentious they were to refuse this relationship, it was unnecessary.

After sitting with Shan Tianfeng for a while, the housekeeper called and asked them to have dinner.

Shan Qihuan’s eldest brother and second sister lived far away, and both of them happened to be on a business trip, so they didn’t come over, however, Shan Qixin, whom Shen Yuhan had never met before, came back after making the announcement.

His appearance was quite surprising.

When Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan came out of the tea room, they saw Shan Qixin walking towards them.

“Third brother, this must be my sister-in-law, right?”

How could this be wrong, there was no one in the room that he had not seen before, he ask while knowing the answer.

“Um.” Shan Qihuan said to Shen Yuhan, “Shan Qixin, brother-in-law.”

“Brother-in-law, hello.” Shen Yuhan smiled at him, he is his husband’s biological brother.

Shan Qixin has also heard about Shen Yuhan’s behavior, but it was different from what he heard, he looks very energetic, his smile can charm thousands of girls, and there is a different kind of temperament each time he move3舉手投足 (jǔ shǒu tóu zú): one’s every movement (idiom); the way one moves; the way in which one carries oneself; how one carries oneself; gestures., as if he has been specially trained.

However, Shan Qixin has more important things to talk to Shan Qihuan now.

He quietly asked Shan Qihuan: “Third Brother, do you have B@X’s latest suit, I have to attend an event tomorrow, so lend it to me for a day.”

Shan Qihuan: “You can go back with us to get it later.”

Shan Qixin: “Then I’ll stay at your place tonight, it’s convenient, isn’t it?”

Shan Qihuan: “It’s not inconvenient.”

The two of them finished their conversation just in time to be seated.

During the meal, the atmosphere at the table was quite harmonious, the first ten minutes or so were spent discussing what kind of meat was delicious, which dishes are fresh, and how long it would take to get there by air, which was a relatively innocuous topic, but the best part always happens later when the rich and powerful family get together for dinner.

It’s unclear who first brought up the matter of the Second Madam’s son’s elbow turned outward4胳膊肘往外拐 (gē bó zhǒu wǎng wài guǎi): Chinese term with a derogatory meaning, it means selfishness, inhumane and cannot distinguish right from wrong. at the company, and then the second house brought up the matter between the third and fourth house, it’s dog bites dog and only end up with a mouthful of fur5狗咬狗一嘴毛 (gǒu yǎo gǒu yī zuǐ máo): all parties struggles, and no one get the advantage..

Shen Yuhan looked at it in shock, but even so, Shan Tianfeng still drank the ginseng soup6參湯 shēn tāng: Ginseng soup. Ginseng soup brought by the housekeeper calmly, and didn’t even reprimand the few unruly mesdames and children.

The flames of war at the table escalated, and suddenly spread to Shan Qihuan, the Second Madam lived up to expectations7不負眾望 (bù fù zhòng wàng): to live up to expectations (idiom); to not let everyone down; to not let anybody down. and brought up the matter of ‘prostitution in a certain club’ to shine on Shan Qihuan.

The Second Madam said: “Compared to our Qibai, Qihuan’s incident is more surprising, it’s all over the news, Qibai’s incident is just entertainment news at best.”

Shen Yuhan, who was listening to the gossip, sat upright and swallowed a mouthful of soup, he gently placed the soup bowl and spoon on the small plate, when he looked at the Second Madam, his eyes were a little cold, how could his husband be compared to the Second Madam’s Shan Qibai, who have drooping eyes8吊眼角 (diào yǎn jiǎo): eyes with outer corner drooping, it’s generally believed that drooping corners eyes is unsightly., he also had a wretched look on his face, which was a bit weird especially when he looked at him, he always felt like there was a long worm crawling on his body, which was a bit disgusting.

Shan Qihuan has always ignored their disputes, the Second Madam couldn’t scold anyone else, so she wanted to use Shan Qihuan to end today’s ‘war’.

“Where did you see my brother? You can eat carelessly, but you can’t talk carelessly, everything must be based on evidence.” Shan Qixin dislikes these mesdames the most, always catching onto gossip about his third brother, and splashing all kinds of dirty water on him.

Second Madam: “Don’t Liu Tan and the others often play with him, someone saw Liu Tan and the others coming out of the police station last night, isn’t this a big deal?”

Shan Qixin: “Liu Tan is Liu Tan, which eye did you see my third brother?”

Second Madam: “Wasn’t that back view…”

Shan Qixin curled his lips disdainfully: “Is that my brother? You need to go see an ophthalmologist.” He just heard it outside the tea room, his brother hadn’t even left the house yesterday.

Shan Tianfeng, who had been drinking soup, slammed his bowl heavily on the table.

“That’s enough, what gossip also take out to talk about, if you have the time, why don’t you take good care of Qibai, hasn’t you to lose face enough?”

The Second Madam refuses to let it go, she had to drag Shan Qihuan into trouble: “Tianfeng, but this matter is all in the headlines, it just happened yesterday.”

Shan Qihuan looked at the Second Madam coldly: “I was at home with Xiao Han yesterday, do you want a video or a photo?”

The Second Madam moved her mouth, as if she didn’t believe it.

That’s all about the social news.

After the meal, Shan Qihuan directly asked Shan Tianfeng to go home first, it was rare that Shan Tianfeng didn’t say anything about him, he even cared about Shen Yuhan.

Shan Tianfeng said: “If Qihuan bullies you, just call me.”

Shen Yuhan smiled and said: “He didn’t bully me, he was very kind to me.”

Shan Tianfeng feels that his descendants have matured after getting married, he knew how to praise people, but this made him feel that Shen Yuhan was bullied by Shan Qihuan.

The Second Madam also went out with them, the Fourth Madam is accompanying Shan Tianfeng now, she can’t stay overnight even if she wants to.

When the two parties met, the Second Madam couldn’t help but stab Shen Yuhan: “Yuhan, do you really don’t mind Qihuan playing outside? Do you know what kind of people are out there?”

Shen Yuhan’s posture was straight and upright, he looked directly at the Second Madam, and said lightly: “What does our main house’s affairs have to do with you?”

The Second Madam was stunned for a moment, her lips were trembling with anger, and she couldn’t say a word, at this moment, she was completely scorned.

If Shan Qihuan and the others are the main house, then what is hers? Side house9偏房 (piān fáng): side room; (dated or dialectal) concubine; As opposed to 正房 (zhèng fáng), principal rooms in a quadrangle, usually facing south; (historical) one’s legal wife.?

This Shen Yuhan made her so angry that her chest hurt!

Shan Qihuan, standing next to Shen Yuhan, felt his scalp tightened, the so-called to kill someone is to eliminate their heart10殺人誅心 (shā rén zhū xīn): lit. to kill someone is to eliminate their heart; to vanquish someone by exposing their intentions; It means that rather than destroying someone’s body, it’s better to expose and condemn a person’s motives, thoughts, and intentions. It implies a strong resolve to eradicate not just the person but also their intentions or motivations, leaving no trace of their influence or threat., is nothing more than this.

It doesn’t hurt much, but it’s extremely insulting.
