The Treacherous Minister Who Helps the People 21

The atmosphere in the study room congealed like ice, leaving only the faint sound of Madam Shen’s sorrowful weeping and the heavy breaths of Grand Preceptor Shen.

After a long while, A while that felt like several years to Madam Shen, Grand Preceptor Shen finally spoke. “You don’t need to worry about this matter, I will handle it.”

Grand Preceptor Shen couldn’t bear it any longer and closed his eyes in despair. “From now on, you must not come out anymore.”

“Yes.”

Madam Shen stifled her cries and clung to Grand Preceptor Shen’s robe. “Husband, you must protect Qiqi, you must protect her! Although she is not a man, our Qiqi is no less than any man!”

“…Hmm!”

Grand Preceptor Shen replied in a deep voice. He knew that Shen Qi was exceptional, intelligent and diligent from a young age.

He had invested most of the Shen family’s resources in her, hoping that she would lead the Shen family to prosperity.
