Chapter 351: Help! I Stole the Male Lead's Fiancée! 45

The moment the police arrived, the scene was brought under control. However, while the situation was contained, the damage to the Shen family's reputation was already done. Old Master Shen, in his entire life, probably never imagined that his final journey in this world would end in such an embarrassing spectacle.

However, this was just the beginning.

“Officer, I suspect foul play in Old Master Shen’s death.”

This clear, cold statement shocked everyone present.

The mourners, no longer restrained by the solemnity of the occasion, began whispering amongst themselves. Mother Shen's face darkened with anger. However, Shen Ling, for the first time since reaching adulthood, dared to confront Shen Yuan.

“Shen Yuan, what nonsense are you spouting?! Is it because Grandfather kicked you out of the Shen family that you harbor such resentment and slander him?!”

Compared to Shen Ling's furious outburst, Shen Yuan remained remarkably calm. “Whether it's nonsense or not, a forensic examination will tell.”

Shen Ling roared, “You're insulting Grandfather!”

Shen Yuan scoffed, “I'm seeking justice for him.”

Everyone present knew that the eldest son of the Shen family had practically faded from public view, rarely making an appearance. In contrast, the second son, Shen Ling, was constantly causing trouble. Now, many suspected that Shen Yuan's actions were motivated by a desire to seize the family assets, especially since Old Master Shen had recently announced his retirement. Shen Yuan might not even inherit a significant portion of the Shen Corporation's ownership.

While outsiders held this belief, Mother Shen subtly steered the conversation.

“Shen Yuan, some actions, when taken too far, become irredeemable. Considering you're a junior, I'll let this matter slide.” As an elder, she couldn't resort to the same open hostility as Shen Ling. However, her restrained anger evoked sympathy from the others.

Shen Yuan lazily shifted his gaze from her face to Shen Ling. “I'll relinquish my claim to the Shen Corporation. Does Second Young Master Shen dare to agree to a forensic examination?”

Shen Ling, easily provoked, lost his reason. Had this been directed at Mother Shen, she might have reconsidered. However, Shen Ling was different. He immediately declared, “Don’t you regret this!”

With those words, there was no turning back. Mother Shen wanted to intervene, but at this juncture, she realized anything she said would be wrong. If she vehemently objected, it would only make her appear guilty. She glared at Shen Yuan, her face filled with resentment.

Meanwhile, Shen Yuan, shedding his previous nonchalance, suddenly placed his hand on Su Tang’s waist and spoke with a light smile. “The Shen Corporation is nothing. By the way, allow me to introduce you. This is the CEO of Abyss Investment Bank.”

Abyss Investment Bank was practically a household name in the financial world. However, while its existence was widely known, its CEO remained shrouded in mystery. Now, they looked at the young woman beside Shen Yuan. Could it be that the rumored ruthless CEO was actually this delicate young lady?

Shen Ling's face contorted. The Shen Corporation was a prominent family in City B, but on a global scale, it paled in comparison. Abyss Investment Bank, however, was different. It was among the top ten companies on the Forbes Global list.

Not only Shen Ling, but everyone was stunned, including Su Tang.

She desperately suppressed her shock and furrowed her brows, looking at Shen Yuan. He lowered his gaze and chuckled, “What’s wrong, darling?”

That endearment sent shivers down Su Tang’s spine. However, they were the center of attention, so she couldn't react too strongly. Maintaining her composure, she smiled and whispered, “Mr. Shen, care to explain?”

Shen Yuan winked. “Our household registrations are already linked. What’s mine is yours.”

Su Tang was speechless. However, her expression, visible to everyone, seemed to convey a gentle reprimand towards Shen Yuan for revealing her identity, followed by a touch of resignation. It suggested an air of "Well, he's the one I chose. Even if his identity is exposed, what can I do? I can only indulge him."

Shen Ling was practically blinded by their interaction. Shen Yuan, the man who had outmaneuvered him countless times, was actually lowering himself to appease someone else? Impossible. This only strengthened his belief that Shen Yuan wasn't lying.

The thought that Shen Yuan was actually trying to please someone lessened the fear that had been weighing on him. He even dared to taunt, “Shen Yuan, you’ve really stooped low, becoming a kept man!”

He expected everyone to join him in scorning Shen Yuan. However, to his surprise, everyone fell silent.

Were they joking? So what if he was a kept man? Just look at the CEO of Abyss. Beautiful and elegant. If she were to take a liking to them, they would gladly be kept by her! Shen Ling must be blind to mock him. They were green with envy!

Su Tang remained silent for a few seconds, then turned to Shen Ling with an aura of power. She lifted her chin haughtily. Wearing high heels, they were almost eye-level, but she exuded an air of superiority, looking down at Shen Ling like he was an ant.

“Tsk, winter is coming. Do you think the Shen Corporation will also fall?”

At that moment, Shen Ling actually felt a flicker of fear.

After her display of dominance, Su Tang was about to leave with Shen Yuan when he suddenly stopped her. “Wait, we came here to get the household registration documents. You promised to transfer your registration.”

Su Tang looked at him incredulously, almost wanting to shake him awake.

Wake up! Do you still care about your image as Mr. Shen?!

Shen Yuan’s message was clear: Image or his wife? His wife, of course.

Thus, under the complex gazes of everyone present, he took the household registration documents and left.

Mother Shen was equally bewildered. She had previously suspected the little assistant was someone of importance, but she never imagined her identity would be so shocking. Unable to swallow her pride, she forced a smile. “Leaving just like that? Not staying to see Grandfather off one last time?”

Su Tang gave her a look as if she were an idiot. “The forensic examiner is about to arrive. What's the point of seeing him off? But don't worry, Mrs. Shen. If my Shen Yuan is wrong, and Old Master Shen’s death wasn't caused by foul play, I will pay you a hefty sum in compensation.”

Her words were filled with an undeniable authority.

Mother Shen's face turned livid, but she was powerless, forced to watch them leave.

As soon as they left the Shen residence, Su Tang collapsed against the passenger seat. “Shen Yuan, what were you doing?”

Shen Yuan replied, “I wasn’t playing around. I’ve already had the lawyers draft the transfer agreement. So, Abyss is indeed yours.”

Su Tang opened her mouth, momentarily at a loss for words. Abyss held significant meaning for Shen Yuan. His willingness to sign the transfer agreement spoke volumes about his feelings for her.

“Fine, if you’re not afraid of me selling you off, let’s go transfer our household registrations.”

Shen Yuan chuckled softly. The laughter dispelled the gloom in his eyes, replacing it with a lightness she hadn't seen before.

“Hold on, today isn't an auspicious day. I need to consult someone about a favorable date.”

Su Tang was shocked. “You believe in fortune-telling?”

Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow. “Why not? Before you, a fortune-teller told my mother that I would meet a benefactor when I turned eighteen.”

Back then, he had scoffed at the idea. What benefactor? He trusted no one but himself.

But now, he believed it.

She wasn't just his benefactor; she was his everything.
