Chapter 342: Help! I Stole the Male Lead's Fiancée! 36

Grandfather Shen's vigor had greatly diminished after a serious illness. Seeing Shen Yuan, he didn't wait for him to approach, but walked forward with his cane.

He hadn't seen him for several months and had expected him to be down and out. Who knew that not only was he not, but he seemed even more spirited? Grandfather Shen had watched this grandson grow up. While he hadn't bothered to interfere before, it didn't mean he was unaware of anything. But when Shen Yuan was fifteen and stabbed someone, that calm demeanor, without a trace of fear or timidity, even daring to meet his gaze, excited Grandfather Shen.

His eldest son was useless, but the son he produced was a good seedling.

So, he began to cultivate him. Although he said it was cultivation, he didn't interfere in many things. He saw the second branch's difficulties and petty tricks, but never intervened.

He raised him almost like he was breeding Gu insects, intending to temper him to be like himself, unfeeling and only concerned with profit. Only in this way could the Shen Corporation last.

However, after a trip abroad, he found that everything was out of control.

The Shen Yuan of the past was like someone who emerged from darkness, with no sunlight in his eyes. But now it was different; he seemed to have found his light.

He looked at him gloomily, then laughed after a while. The laughter didn't reach his eyes, a superficial smile that, coupled with his aging face, was particularly chilling.

"Shen Yuan, it's not easy struggling alone outside, is it?"

Shen Yuan's expression remained unchanged, as if in his eyes, Grandfather Shen was just an insignificant person. His gaze was indifferent, devoid of any emotion.

His appearance seemed to motivate Grandfather Shen to continue. "The Shen Corporation can still function without you, but without the Shen Corporation, look at this banquet, who would even pay attention to you?" He said, his eyes filled with thick mockery.

Others said he didn't like his eldest grandson, but in reality, he didn't necessarily like his younger grandson, Shen Ling, much either.

Shen Yuan remained as before, or perhaps, his eyes became even colder. "Mr. Shen, only cattle and sheep travel in herds. Perhaps you were once a fierce beast, but now, you are old." He said, a hint of mockery curving his lips.

Grandfather Shen's face darkened terribly when he saw that he didn't even call him grandfather.

Unexpectedly, the next sentence was a threat.

"I dared to stab that maid back then, and I dare to stab you now. So, if Mr. Shen wants to live a little longer, restrain those petty tricks that can't see the light of day." After he finished speaking, he reached out and straightened his crooked bow tie. To outsiders, it looked like a warm moment between grandfather and grandson, but only they knew how tense the atmosphere truly was.

Grandfather Shen laughed. He had previously thought his grandson had changed, but now with these words, he was still the person in his memory.

"Does your little friend know your personality?" Grandfather Shen licked his slightly pale lips, smiling maliciously. "If she knew, would she also run far away? Shen Yuan, a person like you, do you think you deserve that damned love?" He said, taking a step back, and then put on a benevolent smile. "Listen to your grandfather's advice, nothing is more important than money. With money, what kind of person can't you get? Why bother going against money?"

This interaction between the two fell into the eyes of the banquet guests. Many felt that Grandfather Shen had finally come to his senses and knew to recruit Shen Yuan. It was true; compared to the incompetent Shen Ling, Shen Yuan was a rare business genius. With Shen Yuan, the revival of the Shen Corporation wasn't impossible.

However, compared to most of the guests watching the show, Shen Yuan and Grandfather Shen's actions attracted resentment, such as from Shen Ling's family. They had clearly handed over the Shen Corporation to their son before, so why, after just a few months, did they remove him from the position of CEO?

A twisted mind sees everything as twisted. Shen Ling's mother, after so many years of scheming, was on the verge of success. How could she allow Shen Yuan to steal everything from her?

She narrowed her eyes, the malice in them almost materializing.

At such a banquet, Su Tang was in no mood to eat. She walked to Shen Yuan's side and tugged at his clothes comfortingly.

"Shen Yuan, not everyone is qualified to be family."

She had figured it out; no one in the Shen family was normal. Grandfather Shen was a complete lunatic, his eyes only seeing money and profit. As for Shen Ling's parents, they were even crazier. They didn't even see how much their son weighed, their appetite so large, they weren't afraid of choking to death.

Her small gesture lessened the hostility in Shen Yuan's eyes.

So many people at the banquet were paying attention to this side, and then, they saw the unapproachable former CEO actually take the initiative to hold his little assistant's hand and even give her an intimate smile.

Everyone: ???

Everyone was shocked. So, was it as they imagined? CEO Shen's domineering resignation was just to win the beauty's smile?

Gasps rose and fell around them, but Shen Yuan remained indifferent. Not only did he hold Su Tang's hand, but he also, in front of everyone, without giving the Shen family any face, directly left the banquet early.

Grandfather Shen's face turned dark. He didn't expect Shen Yuan to be so bold, daring to make such an unconventional and disrespectful move in front of so many people. Truly…the son of an actress, indeed, couldn't be brought to the stage.

Once Shen Yuan left, the discussion at the banquet didn't stop.

They had previously thought that Grandfather Shen was biased, preferring to support a good-for-nothing rather than keep Shen Yuan. Now it seemed that CEO Shen was simply unconventional, choosing to be entangled with an insignificant little assistant instead of getting to know a proper heiress. Let alone the Shen family, even in their own families, this would be absolutely intolerable.

Gradually, they began to sympathize with Grandfather Shen. At such an old age, his grandson was so unreasonable.

"Mr. Shen, there's no need to be angry. This person, ah, won't turn back until he hits a wall. After Young Master Shen suffers a few times, he will know your good intentions."

"It's just novelty. Old Master, you don't know, back then, my child was also like this, but later, didn't he obediently come back?"

After being persuaded for a while, Grandfather Shen's complexion finally recovered a little. But after all, he was old and lacked physical strength, gradually showing fatigue. Just thinking about the Shen Corporation, he still forced himself to hold on.

"The child is ignorant and doesn't know the dangers of the outside world. Everyone present are elders. If you encounter my grandson outside, remember to help this old man discipline him a bit."

"This is a small matter, easy to do, easy to do."

Grandfather Shen's purpose for holding the banquet was achieved. Only then did he let someone help him leave. Once he left, Shen Ling's parents emerged from the shadows in the corner.

They had planned up to this point and couldn't let the Shen Corporation become someone else's wedding garment.

"Husband, look, isn't our father getting old and starting to become senile?" Mrs. Shen said with a smile, but her eyes were filled with malice. "People of this age, ah, should go where they should go."
