My Genius Sister is Only Seven!?

"Shen Xue, what did my little Shen Nan do to you that you had to use him like this?" Third Aunt immediately turned and stared at Shen Xue who was hidden behind the butler.

Shen Xue tucked her neck in for a moment before sticking her head out a little to peek. Seeing how enraged Third Aunt was, Shen Xue quickly retracted her head again and reached out to pull on the butler's clothes. She couldn't help but start trembling.

"Say something!"

Third Aunt was even angrier when she saw Shen Xue hiding behind the butler.

Now she knew to hide? Why wasn't she afraid when she first used her little Shen Nan?

"Third Aunt... I didn't..."

"Didn't? Then tell me who told Shen Nan to say those ridiculous things?" Third Aunt didn't fall for Shen Xue's trick.

She had seen Shen Xue several times. She used to look quite cute, but since when did she become so cunning? She was becoming more and more similar to her mother.

Third Aunt couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Why did such a good child develop such a crooked personality?

Shen Xue's eyes dodged her aunt's gaze, but she couldn't find a suitable excuse for herself and began to panic.

If her grandfather asked her about what happened later, what would she do?

Shen Xue looked at Shen Yan through the corner of her eyes and saw him glaring at her angrily. Shen Xue hurriedly averted his gaze as the fear in her heart grew even greater.

Shen Xue suddenly started to wail, "I didn't. I didn't say anything."

No one had expected Shen Xue to react like this.

Shen Xue recalled how her mother had told her to just cry whenever she didn't know what to do. According to her mother, once she cried, others would stop putting her on the spot.

Just like right now, everyone was stunned. And naturally, they stopped questioning her.

Shen Yan was annoyed by Shen Xue's wails. He didn't pity her, not even one bit. Instead, he frankly detested it.

"Shen Nan, tell me, what else did Shen Xue say to you?"

Shen Xu did not feel sorry for Shen Xue when he saw her crying. He too felt a sense of disgust.

He wasn't going to let Shen Xue off. If he did not clarify the matter for Shen Nan, it would not be a good thing for his little brother.

Shen Nan was still young and did not know how to protect himself. However, he was Shen Nan's elder brother, and it was only right for him to protect his younger brother.

"I..."

When Shen Nan saw that Shen Xue was crying, he instantly panicked. He felt that it was his fault that Shen Xue was crying.

Shen Nan lowered his head feeling wronged.

He did not want to continue talking, for if he said more, he would be harming Shen Xue.

"Shen Nan, your Sister Shen Xue pushed all the blame onto you. Do you still want to care for her now?" Shen Hao asked. The care and concern in his voice were now replaced by a coldness that was foreign to Shen Nan.

Shen Hao had always been a gentle person and had never spoken to him in such a tone before. Shen Nan widened his eyes and looked at Shen Hao. He was shocked.

"Fourth Brother! How can you talk about me like this?"

Shen Xue felt even more aggrieved after hearing Shen Hao. She had already said that she didn't say anything. Why did Shen Hao not believe her? He even wanted to force Shen Nan to expose her. Was she not their younger sister?

"Shen Xue, God is watching our every move. You know very well what you said to Shen Nan. You only care about yourself. Have you ever thought about what kind of reputation Shen Nan would have in the Shen family if he really took the blame for everything that happened today?"

Shen Xu reached out and adjusted his glasses. His eyes were ice-cold.

Shen Xue shivered uncontrollably. It was as if her Third Brother had become someone strange and foreign to her.

He had never spoken to her with such a cold, emotionless tone before.

Shen Xu stopped looking at Shen Xue. Instead, he turned to look at Shen Nan who now felt guilty and had his head lowered.

"Shen Nan, you're not a three-year-old kid anymore. You shouldn't be fooled so easily. If your Sister Shen Xue really liked you, she wouldn't be pushing you to the front and shifting all the blame to you. Are you sure you still want to protect your Sister Shen Xue?"

The more Shen Xu spoke, the deeper his voice became. Every word felt like it was thumping away at Shen Nan's heart.

"Shen Xu, Shen Nan is still young. Don't scare him like this."

When Shen Hao saw that Shen Nan was so scared that he started to tremble, he quickly tried to tell Shen Xu to hold back a little for his little brother. This was the first time he saw Shen Xu treat Shen Nan so harshly.

Being of the same age, the two of them had spent most of their free time together. He naturally knew how much Shen Xu liked his younger brother.

Ever since Shen Nan was born, Shen Xu had been overjoyed. He had always tried his best to give Shen Nan whatever he wants.

"Shen Nan, why are you still hesitating? Tell me, do you still want to protect your Sister Shen Xue?"
