Chapter 35 The Hidden Circumstances of the Blind Date

```

Despite not knowing whether the original host had deep feelings for Qin Jinlian, seeing Qin Jinlian cry so sadly stirred some empathy in Shen Mingzhu.

So she softened her tone and tried to console her, "Mom, don't cry. Crying won't solve anything. If it did, I'd cry even louder than you."

Qin Jinlian glared at her with red, swollen eyes, "It's all your fault, you ungrateful girl. Not coming back for so long, and when you do, you only manage to upset me."

"Alright, alright, it's all my fault. Will an apology suffice?"

Shen Chaobei and Shen Xiangnan also chimed in with their own kind words. Seeing a way out, Qin Jinlian gradually stopped crying, but she wouldn't look her daughter-in-law, Du Juan, directly in the eyes, still offended by the latter's earlier remark that had pricked her heart.

Shen Mingzhu felt she couldn't stand by and said a few words in defense of her sister-in-law.
