Shen Yuansong was suddenly confused. At a time like this, why was the Old Bai looking at him when he had nothing to do with this? Did he want Shen Yuansong to help mediate this situation?
While he was thinking, the voice from above suddenly became more intense. “Speak!”
Old man Bai’s forehead was covered in sweat as he spoke, “Madam, I do know, but I cannot say. It was you who said back then that he is the heir and that we must be loyal to him!”
As soon as he spoke, the woman choked. “How dare you use my own words against me?”
!!
Old Bai then looked at Shen Yuansong.
Shen Yuansong had no choice but to speak up, “Madam, Old Bai has always been stubborn and unreasonable like a stone in a dung pit. Don’t waste your time arguing with him.”
Old Bai scolded him angrily, “Old Shen, who are you insulting?”
“It’s naturally you! I have long since found you unpleasant to the eye. You know where he is, but you won’t tell us. Do you want him to give you exclusive resources, so your family can surpass my Shen family?”
“How can you insult people like that? I’m not that kind of person, you…”
The two men started quarreling.
The entire room was filled with their arguing voices. On the other hand, the heads of the other two prominent families, the Xu family and the Rong family, were younger than them so they didn’t dare to intervene.
The two men continued to quarrel and suddenly started fighting.
One was pulling the other’s hair, while the other was pulling the other’s beard.
As they fought, Old Bai suddenly held his chest and exclaimed in pain, “Ow, ow, it hurts…”
Shen Yuansong immediately stopped and asked, “Old Bai?”
Old Bai said, “I’m having a heart attack. Quickly take me to the hospital!”
Shen Yuansong looked up at the woman above and made a gesture of request.
The woman sat steadily and watched them perform without exposing them. After a while, she sneered. “Go ahead.”
Hearing this, Shen Yuansong and Old Bai instantly felt relieved and immediately left the room with the help of the butler. Shen Yuansong then said, “Get in my car, you can lie down inside…”
Old Bai was then taken to Shen Yuansong’s car.
The car started immediately and drove away.
After they left Puluo Avenue, Shen Yuansong said coldly, “Okay, stop pretending.”
Old Bai, who was moaning in pain just a second ago, suddenly sat up and looked out the window. He patted his chest and immediately cursed, “The old witch was nowhere to be seen for so many years. How come she’s getting scarier and scarier!?”
Shen Yuansong agreed with him.
Old Bai then adjusted his clothes and said, “We were just acting earlier, so why did you really pull my beard?”
Shen Yuansong sneered. “You also pulled my hair. Anyway, I saved your life, so how do you plan to thank me?”
Old Bai immediately understood what he meant and said, “You can forget about trying to get the other piece of Madman’s work!”
Shen Yuansong. “…”
He glanced at Old Master Bai and asked, “Where is he exactly?”
Old Bai looked deeply at him and asked, “I heard Shen Qianhui is your daughter? And she even married a little-known celebrity?”
Shen Yuansong immediately got angry. “Don’t change the subject!”
In his mind, Old Master Bai silently mumbled, ‘My old friend, I helped you, but you didn’t understand my intention.’
However, he said, “I just heard that you never got married in your life because you were afraid of having a daughter… So, did the Shen family and the witch’s family sign a marriage contract?”
Shen Yuansong nodded. “My father signed it.”
Old Bai immediately sneered. “He’s really confused!”
In fact, intermarriage between wealthy families was very common, and even the four major families often intermarried. Even if they didn’t love each other enough, they could be respectful and some couples could have a harmonious relationship and become a good story in the circle.
This kind of marriage was an acceptable way for everyone.
But to have a marriage contract with that person… That was not an ordinary marriage at all!!!
Upon thinking about the appearance of that lady now, it was like she had just come back from hell. Who would be willing to throw their daughter into the fire pit?! No wonder Shen Yuansong didn’t want to get married and didn’t want to have a daughter!
After Old Bai finished speaking, he suddenly realized that Shen Qianhui had married Jing Zhen. He tried to hold it back but still couldn’t help looking at Shen Yuansong. “But perhaps there will be a blessing in disguise.”
“What blessing? The old witch doesn’t want my daughter anymore. After all, my daughter is almost fifty years old and married a small-time actor. Now she wants my granddaughter to marry into her family instead…”
Old Master Bai was stunned. “Really? But your granddaughter has three children already!”
Shen Yuansong lowered his gaze. “They can’t wait for the next generation to grow up. However, I promised to give them some of the Shen family’s stocks and let them tear up the agreement made years ago. And she agreed.”
Old Master Bai nodded. “You did the right thing. Even though it’s your granddaughter and not your daughter, you can’t push her into the fire pit. Moreover, compared to them, Chu Cichen is really a good son-in-law!”
Shen Yuansong nodded satisfactorily. “Chu Cichen is really good!”
After praising him, he suddenly smiled and looked at Old Bai. “Speaking of which, my granddaughter and your granddaughter are considered in-laws. As for the matter regarding this marriage, the Bai family should support me!”
Thinking of his granddaughter’s marriage and that worthless Chu Cimo, Old Master Bai’s face turned black.
Shen Yuansong laughed. “You just mocked my daughter for marrying a small-time actor. Isn’t your granddaughter also marrying a useless affluent second-generation?”
Old Master Bai immediately became unhappy. “How is he useless? Chu Cimo, he… he…”
Shen Yuansong smiled and asked, “What’s wrong with him? Does he have a position in the Chu Corporation?”
Old Master Bai himself looked down on Chu Cimo, but he didn’t allow others to do so. He immediately said, “He has a close relationship with Valor Gate! Just a few days ago, he helped your son-in-law find people from Valor Gate to serve as bodyguards!”
Shen Yuansong sneered. “Is that true?”
Valor Gate was not part of their system, but they and the four major families mutually respected each other. Valor Gate would not meddle in their affairs. So, Old Master Bai must be bragging!
However…
Shen Yuansong glanced back at the manor they had just left.
He noticed that many guards were deployed in the estate today. If the lady reneged on their deal and tried to forcibly take Jingjing away, his own guards might not be enough to handle these professional people.
If Valor Gate could help them, it would be great.
–
In the manor halfway up the mountain that resembled a castle.
After the people from the four major families left, the noblewoman suddenly pushed the teacup in her hand onto the ground. Her chest was heaving with anger.
The butler re-brewed the earl grey tea and brought it over in a porcelain cup with a gold trim. “Quee…” he began but was soon being glared at by the noblewoman.
“In China, call me Madam,” she said.
The butler immediately said, “Madam, please calm down. The Shen family is just ignorant.”
The noblewoman took a sip of the tea, and a fierce look flashed in her eyes. “Old Shen has hidden his granddaughter so well and he doesn’t even dare to bring her here for me to see… Go find a photo of her and let me see what kind of beauty she is!”
The butler immediately complied and left the room.
Five minutes later, the butler returned and said, “Madam, I’ve found photos of his daughter and granddaughter, but…”
“What?” the noblewoman asked, giving him a glance.
“I can’t help but feel that his granddaughter looks familiar,” the butler said as he handed over a photo of Shen Ruojing.
In the photo, Shen Ruojing had clear and cold peach blossom eyes.
