Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories - Chapter 163
Chapter 163: CEO Li The Boss
In the hospital, she begged in front of her parents. They stopped treating her like a precious gem and instead like a piece of trash.
Awkward, disappointed, and despicable.
“Qianshu…” Fang Xia looked at the daughter she had not seen for years. Her feelings were complicated since she had not seen her in a long time. Except on TV and live-streams. Recently, Shen Qianshu kept appearing on Entertainment news, and they kept all the newspapers at home.
“Mom…” Shen Qianshu stood up slowly. She could remember everything that had happened that time when she knelt before them. She could still remember the pain from Fang Xia’s slap on her face. The love and protection she got from them in those eighteen years floated in her mind, ingrained in her memory.
Shen Xiong’s expression was not very nice, and he furrowed his eyebrows. Lin Xuan laughed coldly as she stared at Li Zhiyuan and her. A Ye Ling has left, and now there’s another Ye Ling. How did Shen Qianshu get all the attention she’s getting? Does she always depend on men to get her somewhere?
The silence and awkwardness were overpowering.
Shen Xiong took a quick glance at Shen Qianshu and said, “Our family has cut all our ties with you. We no longer raise you. Please don’t call her ‘mom.’ My wife cannot accept it.”
Shen Qianshu regained her composure and smiled. She then greeted them politely. “Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Shen.”
Fang Xia’s pupils contracted, and she stared at her blankly.
Shen Lin said empathetically, “Dad, what are you saying? After all, Qianshu lived with the Shen Family for eighteen years. It’s you…”
“We only have one daughter, you. Everything else has been settled years ago.” Shen Xiong’s face was heartlessly cold.
He did not raise such a disgraceful daughter.
Shen Qianshu died on the inside, but her perfect smile remained. She did not mind Shen Lin’s pretentious self.
All these years, it was as if she had built an impenetrable wall as defense.
Li Zhiyuan laughed. “Qianshu, the Shen Family does not want you, but our family sure does. Why don’t you marry me? My mom can’t wait for you to call her ‘mom.'”
The expression on Lin Xuan’s face was very bad.
Li Zhiyuan, who had been ignored by the Shen Family all this while, suddenly felt a sense of existence.
Shen Xiong bowed hastily. “Isn’t this CEO Li? Hello, hello. I am Shen Xiong.”
It is heard that Brilliant Entertainment had just invested in GK and had become their second biggest investor. That makes him a big financial supporter.
Shen Xiong took out his name card hurriedly and passed it to him.
Li Zhiyuan ignored it, took the towel on the table, and wiped his mouth. He was always warm and nice around Shen Qianshu, yet at this moment, it felt like he was covered in a layer of frost. His eyes were scornful and mean, and there was a bit of arrogance as he said, “CEO Shen, not everyone has the right to pass me their name card.”
When these words shot out of his mouth, the look on the Shen Family changed drastically. Lin Xuan’s expression was very ugly. Shen Xiong looked at him with contempt. He was also an old man in the business world. The Shen family was indeed not as great as the Li’s, and they did not have a foundation, but they were not a small company either. It was the first time he had lost face like this.
As businessmen, the most important thing to remember was that peace brings money.
Even the Ye Family of AG would not fall foul of other families of the upper class.
“You…” Shen Xiong was infuriated. “CEO Li, even if it is your father who sees me, he would drink with me peacefully. You are so young yet so arrogant. Does your father know?”
“What is the Shen Family to me? Don’t talk about me not picking up a business card. Even if your family pays for the keeping of an unprofitable business, I’d still think it’s cheap.”
Shen Lin said, “Li Zhiyuan, y-you’ve gone too far. Even if it’s for Shen Qianshu, you should not offend my parents like this.”
